Yūhi Kurenai just wants to get drunk now.

 

This afternoon, she had a big fight with Asuma. It started because of Natsuo's words, but it was mainly because Asuma proved that what he said was true.

 

"Even someone like you, who has multiple wives, knows to respect every woman. Yet Asuma is monitoring me?" Yūhi Kurenai, with a strong smell of alcohol, had a red face and an hazy gaze.

 

Natsuo sat on the chair, looking helpless. As someone who was pulled into this halfway, he didn't really want to say anything.

 

Of course, Yūhi Kurenai didn't need his answer.

 

"Why does that guy Asuma have the right to monitor me?"

 

"Clearly I haven't done anything with him, but he still looks out for me. Why? If I talk to male colleagues for a few sentences, do I have to report to him as if he were my boyfriend?"

 

"I know, a few colleagues who have talked to me before ended up inexplicably being promoted to meaningless positions. Isn't that a clear case of praising in public but criticizing in private?"

 

"How can they treat my friends like this?"

 

"Relying on his identity as the Hokage's son, he really acts recklessly. Has he ever considered my feelings?"

 

Yūhi Kurenai shouted loudly with a strong smell of alcohol.

 

Obviously, this person was very drunk, even saying things like "relying on his identity as the Hokage's son."

 

Natsuo sighed lightly, formed hand seals, and cast a genjutsu to prevent people around from hearing her words.

 

This "spoiled rich kid pursuing a girl" story shouldn't be heard by too many people. But he also understood that Yūhi Kurenai's words were probably true.

 

Clearly, Asuma and Yūhi Kurenai were the same age and had known each other since they were young. But in the original plot it wasn't until a few years after Naruto and the others graduated, that Asuma finally succeeded.

 

Obviously, their relationship wasn't close before that, and there might even have been some hidden conflicts. Otherwise, there wouldn't have been such a long wait.

 

But looking at Yūhi Kurenai, who was full of resentment, Natsuo sighed lightly, took a sip of wine, and comforted her.

 

"It's okay, if it doesn't work, you just reject it directly."

 

"It's not that easy." Yūhi Kurenai forced a bitter smile and downed another glass. "I've already rejected him, but he's the Hokage's only son. Do you really think I can snub him?"

 

"If you don't speak harshly, he really doesn't understand!"

 

Then came a series of complaints. Because of Asuma, all her teammates were female, and her superiors didn't dare to assign any male teammates to her.

 

And several times when she went on missions, she inexplicably encountered Asuma.

 

She felt like even her captain deliberately cooperated with Asuma, selecting missions in the same locations as him.

 

The more she spoke, the more she drank. The more she drank, the more she spoke.

 

It was clear that Yūhi Kurenai had been accumulating this pressure for a long time, and even Natsuo, who happened to be there, was treated as a trash can by her.

 

"Fine, drink, drink. I've been doing too much lately, and my back is a bit sore. Let's just take today as a day off."

 

Natsuo sighed lightly and picked up his glass, accompanying her in drinking. Seeing how distressed the beauty was, he decided to drink with her.

 

...

 

The next day.

 

The bright sunlight shone through the door.

 

Natsuo furrowed his brows and couldn't help but squint and turn over. After turning over, he seemed to have bumped into something.

 

This was normal, after all, he would always bump into something when he turned over every day. However, today seems different from usual...

 

"Ah!!!"

 

The piercing soprano voice made him abruptly sit up.

 

He opened his eyes wide, only to see Yūhi Kurenai covering her naked body with a blanket, her face full of fear, looking at Natsuo.

 

Oh, Yūhi Kurenai, what's the big fuss about... Huh?!

 

Natsuo suddenly became sober. Yūhi Kurenai also gradually lowered her tone. The two of them looked at each other.

 

"Why are you here..."

 

"I don't know, what about you?"

 

"I don't know either..."

 

"What happened last night?"

 

"I remember you grabbed me and we drank, then..."

 

Natsuo was trying hard to recall. Last night, Yūhi Kurenai complained to him about Asuma, and he just accompanied her for a few drinks.

 

He didn't drink much, and he thought with his alcohol tolerance, there shouldn't be any problems. But Natsuo overlooked one thing; he couldn't drink while trying to have children, so he had been avoiding alcohol for a long time.

 

Not drinking for too long weakens one's alcohol tolerance.

 

So... Natsuo got drunk too.

 

And then he drank even more, following Yūhi Kurenai's words, he started cursing Asuma, and even represented the Uchiha clan, saying that the Third Hokage was trash.

 

Before, Natsuo had been worried about being implicated because of the Uchiha clan, and had been under a lot of stress, almost disappearing completely.

 

All of this was Sarutobi Hiruzen's fault! The more they cursed, the more they drank. And then, as they kept drinking, they eventually...

 

Natsuo quietly lifted the blanket a little. There were scattered bloodstains on the bedsheet, blooming like plum blossoms.

 

Although his actions were discreet, Yūhi Kurenai also saw this scene. She suddenly became angry and grabbed a pillow, throwing it at Natsuo.

 

"It's all because of you! It's all because of you!"

 

"This is mine..."

 

"Wait!" Natsuo grabbed the pillow, interrupting her, "If my last memory is correct, it seems like you shouted something like 'damn it, Asuma, I gave it to Natsuo and not you,' and then you pounced on me".

 

Yūhi Kurenai stared blankly at Natsuo. It seems like... That's exactly what happened?

 

But...

 

"I don't care! It's still your fault!"
