Only after hearing Shin Uchiha's words did Uzuki Yugao finally feel reassured.
Then Uzuki Yugao looked straight at Shin. After a moment's hesitation, she asked:
"Shin, I'd like to stay in Kirigakure for a while. What do you think?"
Shin Uchiha naturally understood what Uzuki Yugao was thinking. A hint of amusement appeared in his eyes as he raised a hand to stroke her long purple hair and said:
"It's fine. Go without worrying. I'll take care of everything here. Besides, your big sister Tsunade will agree too."
Hearing Shin Uchiha's words, Uzuki Yugao nuzzled her head against his hand, then finally gave in and leaned into him.

A wistful look appeared in Uzuki Yugao's eyes as she spoke. She nuzzled against Shin Uchiha's chest before continuing:
"Xiang Ye must be missing me by now. I'll go back and see her first. As for going to Kirigakure, we can discuss it when Tsunade comes back tonight."
Hearing Uzuki Yugao's words, Shin Uchiha nodded in understanding and said with a smile:

At Shin's words, a smile appeared on Uzuki Yugao's face.
