Afterward, Kushina Uzumaki and Uchiha Mikoto also sat at this table, joining the children for noodles.
Minato Namikaze and the other three sat at another table. Seeing that Yechen was focused on eating, they tactfully left him alone and talked among themselves.
Yechen paid them no attention either. What else could they discuss together besides the village's development? He had little interest in such things.
Hinata, on the other hand, was probably the only little girl there. With her adorable looks, she had won over Kushina Uzumaki and Uchiha Mikoto, who even entertained the idea of taking her in as a child bride for their sons.
But they also knew the Hyuga Clan's rules. The clan never married outsiders, in order to keep its bloodline pure. For that very reason, neither woman brought it up.
Fond as they were of her, some lines could not be crossed.
Yechen, however, had no fear of violating that taboo. He kept urging Hinata to eat faster, and once she finished one bowl, he ordered her another.
This surprised quite a few people. How could a little girl not even three years old eat so much?
Although Hinata Hyuga ate slowly, she truly had a good appetite. Even after two bowls of noodles, she still looked as though she wanted more. But she also knew restraint and politely said, "I'm full."
Yechen could hardly insist. He knew that with Hyuga Hiashi present, the little girl was still very afraid of her father.
Under everyone's astonished gazes, Yechen ate fifteen bowls of ramen in a row, prompting Naruto to tease him for being a bottomless pit.
Fifteen bowls might have seemed like a lot, but Yechen only felt half full. Still, he did not keep eating. Leaving some room meant he could try something else
