Chapter 104 Xia Li and Ino

"Ah, auntie, why is the barbecue so..."

Suddenly, a figure holding a plate walked out of the house. Before she finished speaking, her figure stopped. Seeing the figure that she had been thinking about day and night, her hand holding the plate couldn't help but loosen.

When she reacted, the plate had already fallen down, and the moment it was about to fall to the ground...

The plate disappeared from there, and Xia Li also appeared in front of her, holding the two plates in his hands, looking at the figure in front of him, and asked in surprise, "Ino, why are you here?"

Ino didn't say anything, and looked at Xia Li with a trace of fear in his eyes, and couldn't help but take a step back...

Suddenly, Xia Li was silent, and the smile on his face slowly dissipated. He opened his mouth and could only say helplessly.

"Sorry, I scared you..."

"No, no..." At this time, Ino came back to her senses and saw the bitterness on Xia Li's face. What did she do?

She also learned the secret techniques of the Yamanaka family, and was naturally as sensitive to the spirit as Yamanaka Haiyi. The moment Xia Li came to her, she felt the overwhelming blood coming towards her, and it was normal to be scared.

However, Ino still felt a little guilty. At this moment, she thought a lot. The blood on Xia Li's body could definitely explain his experience, and he definitely didn't come back on purpose.

At first, Ino thought that Xia Li didn't come to see her because he had someone else he liked outside. She was sad for several days, and finally decided to come to Xia Li to confirm. If it was true, she would just make a conclusion and couldn't continue to be decadent.

Then after asking around, Ino found Xia Li's home and knew that Xia Li hadn't been home for a long time. She immediately realized that her previous thoughts should be wrong, and at the same time, she couldn't help but worry about Xia Li's safety.

In the following time, Ino would occasionally come here to find Xia Li, but every time he was not there.

Today, she finally saw Xia Li, but what did she do? Xia Li's current state is also very bad, right? It should be the time when she needed comfort the most, but she was frightened and took a step back...

At this moment, the feelings in Ino's heart finally overcame her fear. She took a step forward and hugged Xia Li's arm, smiled and said, "Of course not! Xia Li, don't underestimate me. I also passed the exam of the Ninja School and successfully became a ninja!"

"Little Ino often comes to me to find you, but it's a pity that you are not there every time." Xinai couldn't help but smile when she saw this scene.

Xia Li looked at the smile on Ino's face and the worried look in her eyes, and her heart couldn't help but warm up. She said, "Sorry, I took a long-term mission before and couldn't go home."

"It's okay, as long as little Xia Li can come back safely, and besides, doesn't little Xia Li often send me things? I know that little Xia Li is okay." Xinai smiled.

Xinai actually didn't have any dissatisfaction, because, in her opinion, it was normal for ninjas to be busy. As long as she didn't suddenly send her a death notice, everything would be fine, but if it was, then Xinai would collapse directly.

"But you are very sorry for little Ino. She has been waiting for you for a long time, and she has helped me a lot." Sinai continued.

"Well, aunt, what are you talking about?" Suddenly, Ino's face turned red, and she didn't care about fear.

"Well, I know that I won't be on a mission for a long time after I come back this time. I will accompany my mother and Ino well." Xia Li also said seriously.

"I don't need to, just accompany Ino more." Sinai said with a smile.

And Ino's eyes lit up when she heard it. Finally, she didn't have to endure such a long separation. It's just... She seems to have become a ninja. Is she going on a mission too? Will we be separated again at that time?

"Okay, don't hug each other, little Xia Li, go to the kitchen to get a new plate. Little Ino is here today, but I have decided to show off my cooking skills!"

Suddenly, Ino let go of her hand with a red face, and ran to the kitchen a little shyly. She went to get a new plate.

"Xia Li, go buy some more barbecue? I bought a little more for Xiao Ino and I, but it's definitely not enough with Xia Li." Sinai looked at the barbecue on the table and said.

"Okay." Xia Li finally understood why he saw Sinai grilling meat when he opened the door. He thought his mother's appetite had changed after he left. He remembered that Sinai didn't eat much barbecue, even after she was not short of money.

After Xia Li agreed, he thought about it. He had seen Sinai at the barbecue restaurant when he secretly watched Sinai before, so he really left a Flying Thunder God mark there, although it was under the bark of the big tree...

But, it was enough. Xia Li roughly sensed the direction of the Flying Thunder God mark, and the next moment, Xia Li's figure disappeared directly in front of Sinai.

Sinai blinked, stunned, and then smiled. It seems that Xiao Xia Li has become more powerful. This ninjutsu looks so strong.

At this time, Ino also came out of the kitchen. Not seeing Xia Li, she couldn't help but ask, "Aunt, where's Xia Li? Is he out on another mission?"

"I'm going to buy some barbecue. I'll be back soon." Sinai said, and pulled Ino over and said with a smile, "Little Ino, don't worry. When Xia Li comes back, I will definitely tell him not to mess around outside."

Suddenly, the blush on Ino's face that had not yet faded gathered again, and it was even more intense.

Ino nodded shyly and agreed.

Sinai looked at this scene and couldn't help but laugh. What she said was true. She has become more and more satisfied with Ino these days. Although she hasn't reached the point where she must recognize this daughter-in-law, if she is asked to choose... she will definitely choose Ino as her daughter-in-law!

"Huh? Did something happen?" At this time, Xia Li appeared there silently with a pile of barbecue. Looking at Sinai and Ino with a red face, he couldn't help but feel a little confused.

"No, nothing." Ino said loudly immediately.

"Okay, the barbecue is back, mom." Xia Li put the barbecue in a basket beside him.

"So fast." Xinai couldn't help but sigh as she looked at Xia Li. How long has it been?

"Of course, your son has become a jonin, very powerful." Xia Li did not hide it and shared the good news with his mother and his girlfriend.

"Jonin?!" Xinai and Ino suddenly opened their eyes wide and were in disbelief.

"You are not lying, are you? At the age of twelve, Mom remembers that the genius of the Hatake family seemed to have become a jonin..." Xinai couldn't remember who it was, but still said.

"Of course not, I won't lie... I won't lie about this matter. This is my jonin appointment letter. Although it is only a special jonin, I will also be a jonin from today on." Xia Li said with a smile. Some things are not said out loud for the benefit of everyone.

After receiving the appointment letter, Xinai and Ino were a little dazed.

Xinai was in disbelief. She remembered that her husband had been fighting for his whole life, but her son got it at the age of twelve?

As for Ino, she didn't know what to say. She had just become a Genin, but Xia Li had become a Jonin. How could she catch up...

Soon, Sinai came to her senses and showed a proud expression on her face. This was her son, a 12-year-old Jonin! Her pride!

"Okay, even if you are a Jonin, you are still my son, little Ino's boyfriend. Come and grill meat." Sinai said, pulling Ino to the side and sitting down. Ino also reacted and smiled after hearing what Sinai said.

Yes, even if Xia Li is a Jonin, he is still her boyfriend. Hehe, her boyfriend is so powerful, and she feels safe and proud!

"Oh? I'll grill..." Xia Li scratched his head. He wanted to try his mother's cooking skills. He was still looking forward to it.

"Of course, mom and Ino also want to try the difference between the barbecue grilled by the senior ninja." Sinai smiled. She actually noticed Ino's state. She was also delicate in her heart and probably understood what Ino was thinking, so at this moment Sinai was trying to reduce her thoughts in that regard.

"Well, let's show you the skills of the next successor of Konoha!" Xia Li also smiled and relaxed completely. His mother worked in a barbecue restaurant. How could he not know how to grill meat? It's just that his skills are not as good as Sinai's.

Sinai and Ino have a small appetite, and Xia Li didn't grill for long before they were full.

Then Sinai also stood up and started grilling meat for Xia Li, and at the same time called Ino, saying, "Little Ino, come and try it too."

"Ah? But I can't..." Ino waved her hand hurriedly.

"If you don't know, you can learn. Anyway, it's Xiao Xia Li who eats it. It's okay, Xiao Xia Li." Sinai looked at Xia Li, looking like a daughter-in-law who forgot about her son.

"Well, no problem, Ino, just grill it, I'll take care of it." Xia Li naturally did not refuse, and said with a smile.

"Well, okay then." Ino nodded and began to help Xia Li grill the meat under Sinai's instruction.

And Xia Li's appetite is big, at least much bigger than Sinai and Ino's appetite combined!

"Well, mom's grilled meat is still delicious, Ino's grilled meat is also good, and it will definitely be a must in the future." Xia Li praised while holding his stomach.

"Then let little Ino grill it for you often in the future." Sinai suddenly said.

Suddenly, Xia Li and Ino were stunned for a moment, and then Xia Li looked at Ino and said, "Okay."

"Then is little Ino willing?" Sinai looked at Ino.

Ino lowered her head, and she, who had always been generous in front of her family and others, said in a voice like a mosquito bite.

"I do."
