Sasuke The tea I just drank in my mouth spurted out.
He covered his mouth and coughed violently, and a very light red color appeared at the base of his ears.
"Uncle Xu Zuo, are you okay?"
Sakura saw Sasuke choking on the tea and coughing, and subconsciously picked up the tissue on the table and handed it over.
"Cough cough cough..."
"I... I'm fine."
"Thank you..."
After hearing Sakura's words, Sasuke coughed again.
He took the tissue and wiped the corners of his mouth, then stood up and lowered his voice and said to everyone, "Please take care of me."
Although everyone present felt that Uncle Xu Zuo was a bit weird, since he was Naruto's friend, they all responded politely.
"Okay, let's eat!"
Naruto gave the order, and the atmosphere of the barbecue restaurant was instantly ignited by charcoal fire and the aroma of meat.
Everyone picked up their chopsticks and started using them.
Chōji was the first to pick up the plate and put the meat on the grill. Ya and Akamaru almost got into a fight over the last piece of beef tongue on the plate.
Boruto picked up a plate full of barbecue and ate it hard. His mouth kept talking and his heart was even busier. His eyes flickered back and forth between the younger version of his mother, Aunt Ino and Aunt Karin. He couldn't understand how his father could be so popular.
Naruto picked up a piece of roasted pork belly and put it into Hinata's bowl with a smirk:
"Hinata, do you think Boruto looks like me?"
Hinata put down his chopsticks, took a serious look at Boruto sitting opposite, and nodded after looking at it.
"Boruto and Naruto-kun are really similar."
"The hair and eye color are exactly the same, and the facial hair has the same beard pattern as Naruto-kun had before."
"Hinata, let me tell you a secret."
Naruto Move closer to Hinata and lower your voice.
"Secret?" Hinata blinked.
Naruto came close to her ear and whispered in a voice that only two people could hear, "Actually, Boruto traveled back from the future."
"He is the child you and I will have together in the future."
Hinata's face turned red from head to neck in an instant.
"With Naruto-kun... future... children?"
His eyes involuntarily drifted to Boruto who was eating meat. Before, he just thought that this boy looked like Naruto-kun. Now when he looked at it, he just felt that his eyes, hair color, the angle of the corners of his mouth when he smiled, and even the way he put the chopsticks in his mouth when eating meat, all looked like Naruto-kun.
And Boruto's quiet look does look a bit like himself.
Thinking of this, a small wisp of white smoke began to appear from the top of Hinata's head. Her lips moved a few times, but she wanted to say something but could not say a word.
His eyes slowly turned into two mosquito-repellent coils, and his body shook slightly, then fell back and fainted.
"Naruto Why did you make Hinata faint again?"
Karin leaned over from Naruto and glanced at Hinata, who was lying on Naruto's shoulder.
"Ahem... Sorry, I didn't mean to."
Naruto coughed twice, held Hinata with one hand and let her lean on the back of the chair, and waved the other hand towards Karin, indicating that she was also innocent.
Boruto sat opposite and saw this scene clearly.
He silently turned his gaze to the window and thought to himself that his father was really good at flirting when he was young. No wonder his mother would blush every time she mentioned the past.
other side
Sakura is sitting next to Sasuke, looking at Sasuke from time to time while putting food into his bowl.
This uncle named Xu Zuo hasn't eaten a bite of meat since he sat down. He just stared at the wall in a daze while holding a tea cup.
"Uncle, don't you want to eat?"
"I've eaten before, so I'm not too hungry."
Sasuke lowered his voice and replied.
Sakura tilted his head and glanced at Sasuke, put down the chopsticks for holding meat, and hesitated before asking:
"Um... Uncle Xu Zuo, although today is the first time we meet, I don't know why, but I always feel as if I have seen you somewhere."
"Have we met by chance before?"
Sasuke's fingers holding the tea cup tightened slightly.
"Maybe they just happen to look alike."
"Same."
Sakura Without thinking any more, he picked up the chopsticks again and picked up a piece of barbecue for himself.
This uncle gave her an indescribable sense of familiarity.
He seemed to have someone's shadow, or breath, on him, which made people afraid to approach him easily, but also made him want to take a closer look.
Sakura shook his head, shook these inexplicable thoughts out of his head, and continued to concentrate on eating.
As the sun sets behind Hokage Rock, the noise in the barbecue restaurant gradually subsides.
The table was piled with empty plates and empty drink bottles. Chōji patted his round belly contentedly and slumped on the chair. His teeth were smoothing the hair of Akamaru who was also full. Neji was sitting by the window, occasionally picking up the tea cup and taking a sip, and occasionally looking at Boruto, thoughtfully.
Hinata had already woken up. When he woke up, Naruto explained that what he just said was a joke with Hinata.
After listening to Naruto's explanation, Hinata leaned on Karin's shoulder, blushing so much that it had not completely faded away. From time to time, he secretly glanced at Naruto and Boruto who were chatting with Shikamaru, and quickly looked back.
Ino and Tenten murmured together, occasionally glancing at the silent uncle Xu Zuo in the corner. They were obviously very curious about this stranger who was wearing a cloak, had a cold temperament, and was somewhat inexplicably familiar.
Sasuke sat in the corner, mentally turning over all the curse words he could curse in his life.
Xu Zuo.
I've never been called that in my life.
After the party ended, everyone greeted Naruto and left in turn.
Sakura glanced at Uncle Xu Zuo who was sitting motionless in the corner. She always felt that this man had an inexplicable sense of familiarity, but in the end she just nodded politely to Sasuke and walked out of the store with Karin.
Hinata was following behind Yahe Shino and was about to leave when Naruto reached out and gently pulled her.
"Hinata, don't leave yet."
"What's wrong Naruto-kun?"
Hinata stopped, the blush on his face that had just recovered from a coma had not yet completely faded away.
Naruto looked at Hinata and smiled slightly, "I plan to take Boruto to take a photo, and I want to invite you to come with me."
When Hinata heard this, the joke Naruto said in her ear during dinner came to mind, "Boruto is the child you and I will have together in the future!"
Her cheeks started to feel hot.
Naruto-kun Why did you invite yourself to take photos?
Or shoot with Boruto?
Could it be said that Naruto-kun is already thinking about having a child?
But we are still so young...
And they are not officially together yet...
Thinking of these things, Hinata's face became increasingly red, spreading from the tips of her ears to her neck, and then from her neck to below her collar. Her whole body was almost smoldering.
She raised her eyes and glanced at Naruto secretly, then quickly lowered her head, and finally nodded very lightly.
"Hmm."
Hinata responded with a voice not much louder than a mosquito.
"Boruto, let's go and take pictures."
Naruto waved to Boruto, then turned to Sasuke in the corner. "Uncle Xu Zuo, do you want to come with us?"
Sasuke's hand holding the teacup paused for a moment.
He understands what Naruto means.
Leave something as a souvenir in this time and space. After all, they are leaving soon, and no one can say whether they can come back in the future.
Sasuke thought for a while and finally shook his head.
"I won't do it Naruto. Please hurry up. It's almost time for us to leave."
Naruto understood what Sasuke meant and nodded.
