Little women were tigers too

The next day, Ye Feng got up at the first light of dawn.

Yesterday, he had only learned at the last minute that school was starting, so he had skipped training without letting Might Duy know. Today, he had to go and tell him. He also needed to buy ingredients, seasonings, and cookware. Ye Feng did not want to end up with nothing to eat like yesterday.

After waiting briefly at Konoha's gates, he spotted Might Duy and his son, just as expected. They came rain or shine.

"Oh, it's little Ye Feng. You didn't come yesterday. That's not a good habit," Might Duy said first when he saw Ye Feng.

"Mr. Might Duy, I only found out yesterday that the Ninja Academy was starting, so I went to school at the last minute. I might not be able to train with you anymore."

"You're going to school too? You're only four. Aren't you too young?"

"The clan arranged it."

"If the clan arranged it, there's nothing we can do. Guy has just enrolled too, so if you have time after school, come train with him. Remember, in Taijutsu training, you either advance or fall behind. If your Taijutsu reaches a certain level, I'll give you a special gift," Might Duy said solemnly.

"Yes! I won't let you down!" Ye Feng said excitedly as well. He knew that Might Duy's special gift was most likely the Eight Gates Released Formation.

The Uchiha Clan Grounds lay on the very outskirts of Konoha and occupied a vast area. On top of that, the Uchiha called themselves Konoha's greatest clan. With their power and influence, they had grown accustomed to throwing their weight around, and almost no one visited the Uchiha Clan Grounds. Only fringe members of the Uchiha like Ye Feng and Obito, whose homes stood at the compound's outermost edge, occasionally saw outsiders passing by.

When Ye Feng returned home after buying the ingredients and supplies he needed for cooking, he found Inuzuka Clan Fengyu and Kurenai Yuhi already waiting at his door. Each held a large food container. They stood back-to-back, their lips pouting, and had clearly had an argument.

Everything about the Hokage World was great, except that the people here matured far too early.

Ye Feng had something of a headache too. Although he liked pretty girls, he meant adults. He had the mind of a man in his twenties, and these two were only five- or six-year-old kids. He could not feel any interest in them at all; he merely thought children were rather cute.

The moment the two girls saw Ye Feng return, they rushed over and took out the breakfasts they had brought to share with him.

Seeing how neither was willing to give in to the other, Ye Feng hurriedly diverted their attention, pulling them inside to show them around his home.

Once inside, the two girls eagerly took out the breakfasts they had lovingly prepared for Ye Feng and held them in front of him. Had they been two beautiful grown women, being fed without having to lift a finger really would have been a man's dream come true. In reality, however, they were two tiny girls competing with each other, feeding him from both sides until his mouth was so full that nothing more would fit.

"Ladies, slow down. I can't fit any more in. Actually, you don't have to come over anymore." Ye Feng's mouth was so full of food that he could barely speak clearly.

"Ye Feng, do you hate us now?" In an instant, the two girls who had just been squabbling changed their expressions together. The corners of their mouths turned down, and tears began welling in their eyes.

Seeing this, Ye Feng hurriedly found an excuse:

"That's not it. I'm training with Mr. Might Duy now. I'll be spending most of my time with him and won't be home much."

Hearing that he did not hate them, they immediately smiled through their tears and continued feeding Ye Feng. Sure enough, women—even little girls—could change their expressions as quickly as turning a page.

Just then, there was a crash as the door was thrown open, and Obito Uchiha ran inside, saying:

"Ye Feng, come on! I'll take you to try something good. It'll definitely..."

Obito stopped halfway through when he saw the three people inside. Ye Feng sat in the middle with his mouth full of food, while Inuzuka Clan Fengyu and Kurenai Yuhi were still holding food out to him from either side.

"Ah, ah...! You... ah, wrong house!" The sight left Obito so stunned that he could barely speak. Babbling incoherently, he darted back out.

At the commotion Obito Uchiha had made, Inuzuka Clan Fengyu and Kurenai Yuhi instantly blushed, looking utterly adorable. They hurriedly said goodbye and rushed away.

Watching the two girls leave, Ye Feng let out a sigh of relief. What was out of reach seemed infinitely wonderful, but if he really had two jealous, squabbling girls around him in the future, life would be an absolute disaster.

After swallowing all the food in his mouth, Ye Feng could already feel his stomach bulging slightly. He really had eaten quite a lot.

Seeing that it was getting late, Ye Feng began preparing his lunchbox. Judging by how Obito had looked when he came in, he definitely had not brought lunch again. Ye Feng made a portion for Obito too.

In his previous life, Ye Feng had still been single in his twenties and had always lived alone, developing a full set of cooking skills. He had yet to see anyone eating Chinese food in the Hokage World. Fortunately, the ingredients here were mostly the same as those in his previous life, so he could make fairly authentic Chinese dishes.

This time, Ye Feng made two famous Sichuan dishes: Twice-Cooked Pork and Fish-Fragrant Eggplant. Paired with white rice, they made his mouth water just thinking about them.

With everything ready, Ye Feng stepped out of his home to greet another day at the Ninja Academy.
