Honkai Impact 3rd: This is how Obito and Rin used it

The weekend is almost here.

After lunch, Kurenai locked herself in her room and didn't come out for several hours.

She wore a red dress, adorned with a few crystals, which made her look like a princess, dazzlingly beautiful.

Even Yuhi Shinku was taken aback by how her daughter was dressed up.

His heart sank.

As far as I can remember, Kurenai Yuhi has always loved beauty since she was a child, but she has never dressed up so carefully for an occasion or for a particular person.

Could it be...? No way!

Kurenai Yuhi comforted herself in her heart.

Although there's a one in a thousand chance that my precious daughter is dating that guy Asuma, she's always been a good girl, and he's absolutely not worried about her finding excuses to fool around with her boyfriend.

So, it could be for other reasons as well.

For example, there might be other girlfriends at the party, or rivals who don't get along with the daughter. Girls, it's normal to like to dress up when they get older.

Much of his worry dissipated, and as he watched Kurenai Yuhi pacing back and forth in front of the mirror, the old father felt a warm glow in his heart.

Look at my beautiful daughter.

She's not only gentle, but also beautiful.

Not only is she beautiful, but she's also incredibly talented.

Not only is she exceptionally capable, but she's also incredibly filial... How could I have given birth to such a perfect daughter?

Looks like good genes really do make a difference!

Time seemed to fly by in her imagination; it felt like only a blink of an eye before her beloved daughter was all dressed up and ready to go out.

"Father, I'm setting off."

"Oh~" Kurenai Yuhi came to her senses: "No drinking, go home early."

"Okay~" Kurenai Yuhi walked away without looking back.

Watching his beloved daughter's retreating figure, Yuhi Makoto wore a loving father's smile.

"I wonder which brat will end up getting the good deal."

"Asuma's words... could they affect the excellent genes of the Yuhi family?"

"...Hmm...Red deserves better."

"Let's see what other families' kids are like then... Forget it, let's wait two more years, Hong is still young~"

The elderly father, Yuhiko, once again drifted into a fantasy world.

Chapter 354 Asma: I Have My Own Rhythm

Sarutobi Asuma's birthday party wasn't held in Sarutobi territory, but at a friend's house.

The room was already quite full of people, some chatting, some playing games, and others preparing food in the kitchen. When Kurenai Yuhi appeared, the noise gradually subsided until only the sounds from the kitchen remained.

"Wow~" one of the girls couldn't help but exclaim.

The boys stared wide-eyed at Yuhi Kurenai, their gazes almost fixed on her.

Among those blank, dazed gazes, there was one belonging to Sarutobi Asuma, but he was the first to come to his senses.

It wasn't that he didn't want to continue watching, but rather that he didn't want others to see it.

"Hey, hey, hey!" Sarutobi Asuma called out, "Mind your image."

At his prompting, the boys looked away one by one, and then Sarutobi Asuma hurriedly walked up to Kurenai Yuhi.

"Hong, you've finally arrived."

As his gaze fell on Kureha Yuhi's red dress, Sarutobi Asuma felt a dryness in his mouth.

nice.

So beautiful.

Although Kurenai Yuhi had always been the most beautiful in his heart, she had never dressed up like this before, so this was the first time he had ever seen Kurenai Yuhi so radiant.

The thought that the other person had dressed up specially for his birthday made Sarutobi Asuma tremble with excitement, a surge of intense emotion enveloping his entire being.

Kurenai Yuhi felt slightly awkward under Asuma Sarutobi's gaze.

Actually, she didn't want to appear in front of Sarutobi Asuma wearing such clothes, but she had no choice. If she waited until the birthday party was over to go back and change, she was afraid she wouldn't have enough time. Not attending the party would also hurt Asuma's feelings, so she had no choice but to come dressed.

"Has the party started?" Kurenai asked.

“Right away.” Sarutobi Asuma replied immediately, “My friends in the kitchen will be ready soon, we’ll start in a bit.”

"Hong, please sit down first. If you're hungry, have something to eat."

Kurenai Yuhi shook her head: "I'm not eating, I'm not hungry."

What were you talking about just now?

"We didn't talk about anything," Sarutobi Asuma said. "We were just talking about the old man."

"Ever since Orochimaru defected, he's been frowning all the time. If you ask me, he should just step down."

"At his age, what's the point of being Hokage? He should have given the opportunity to someone else long ago."

Kurenai Yuhi remained silent upon hearing this. As for the issue of the Hokage's resignation, Sarutobi Asuma, being the unfilial son, could offer his opinion, but it was best for others to refrain from saying anything.

Sensing that Kurenai Yuhi wasn't interested in the topic, Asuma Sarutobi quickly changed the subject, "Never mind, let's not talk about this."

"Hong, what have you been busy with lately...?"

Leaving his friends aside, Sarutobi Asuma and Yuhi Kurenai started chatting.

When he was with Kurenai Yuhi, he could feel the gazes from those around him, some envious, some amazed. He knew those emotions were directed at Kurenai Yuhi, but he felt honored to be there for her.

After all, she was Kurenai's best 'friend'.

At that moment, a girl walked over arm in arm with her male companion and said to Sarutobi Asuma, who was talking to Yuhi Kurenai, "Asuma, are you two together now?"

Kurenai Yuhi frowned slightly, while Asuma Sarutobi blushed instantly.

He straightened his back, exhaled deeply through his nose, and felt an energy called 'happiness' lift him up in the blink of an eye. Although it wasn't real, he was still overjoyed when others saw the two of them as a couple.

"Not yet." Sarutobi Asuma explained with a smirk, "Red and I are still friends."

The girl raised an eyebrow upon hearing this and asked, "Really?"

“You two were together every day when you were in school.”

"It's been so long since graduation, and there's still no progress?"

"Don't let me give birth before you two even start dating, okay?"

Just as Sarutobi Asuma was about to explain, Kurenai Yuhi's cool voice suddenly came from beside him.

"Asma and I are just good friends."

"Please don't say things like that, it will embarrass people."

The girl's expression changed slightly, because although Kurenai spoke politely, her expression was very serious, which made her lose the mood to 'joke'.

"I was just asking," she explained with a forced laugh.

Kurenai Yuhi: "Then please don't be so casual."

"..."

The atmosphere was a bit awkward. The male companion tugged at the female's hand, and the two left, looking rather unhappy.

Sarutobi Asuma remained where he was, his mind focused entirely on Kurenai Yuhi, whose expression was slightly cold.

"Hong, don't be angry. They're just curious."

"Perhaps," Kurenai Yuhi said calmly.

Sarutobi Asuma: 'Never mind that, Kurenai, thank you for taking the time to celebrate my birthday.'

Kurenai looked at him and said, "We're friends, this is what I should do."

“No.” Sarutobi Asuma shook his head gently, looking at Kurenai Yuhi’s exquisite red dress, and said, “You have done more than I imagined.”

Thinking that Kurenai Yuhi had to rush to do a mission that night, yet still took the time to dress herself up so beautifully, Asuma Sarutobi's slight discomfort vanished completely.

Forcing himself to look away for a moment, Sarutobi Asuma said, "Compared to you, Nebula is a bit lacking."

“He insisted that he had something very important to do that night and couldn’t come, so he didn’t come in person, but he did send a gift.”

Upon hearing Sarutobi Asuma's words, Kurenai Yuhi's eyes flickered, but she suppressed the urge to curl her lips into a smile.

"Did he really say that?"

“Yes,” Sarutobi Asuma said, “but I don’t blame him.”

“The old man hasn’t been treating him well lately; I’ve heard it from other people. He’s probably feeling down.”

The two chatted for a while longer, and then Kurenai noticed that everyone's eyes were starting to look at them frequently, so she reminded them, "Go and spend some time with your friends."

"Don't just keep chatting with me."

“Alright,” Sarutobi Asuma said reluctantly.

Before long, the food for the party was ready, and the cake was brought out. Kurenai Yuhi and Asuma Sarutobi's friends celebrated each other's birthdays, and after eating the cake, they said goodbye.

"Red, are you leaving so soon?" Sarutobi Asuma asked reluctantly.

"Mm." Kurenai Yuhi nodded.

Although she still had plenty of time, she had already attended Sarutobi Asuma's birthday party and eaten the cake, and now her heart was already elsewhere.

"The mission is very urgent, Asuma. You have fun, I'm leaving now."

After bidding farewell to Sarutobi Asuma, Kurenai Yuhi turned and left. Sarutobi Asuma's gaze lingered on the retreating figure in a red dress, unable to look away for a long time.

"Hey." A friend next to him, unable to stand it any longer, nudged him with his shoulder: "What's going on? Still haven't won her over after all this time?"

"Could it be that they're too afraid to make a move?"

"What are you saying!" Sarutobi Asuma protested. "I'm just still planning it."
