When Shikamaru, Eyouling, Yamato, and Kakashi went to report on the mission, Eyouling was left alone again. Eyouling was really used to it. It would be strange if this kind of thing didn't happen. .

Shikamaru glanced at Eyouling silently, and there seemed to be some guilt in his eyes. Eyouling also caught a glimpse of that look, and just nodded slightly. Shikamaru glanced at Tsunade helplessly, and saw that Tsunade's face was not very good. Even so, he could only retreat first.

Kakashi has been paying attention to him for a long time, and comforted him when he came out, "Don't worry, Tsunade-sama cares more about Eyou Ling than you do, and won't do anything to her."

But Shikamaru shook his head and said, "It is precisely knowing this that I think she will be in some trouble."

Kakashi's eyes were crooked, and it seemed that Shikamaru really recognized Eyouling. In the past, Shikamaru had always thought that Eyouling was a troublemaker. Although Eyouling had always been unreliable, But what he does is very concerned about the friendship between his companions and the overall situation.

"You don't have to worry about that. She wants to do more than that." Kakashi replied.

Shikamaru frowned slightly and raised his eyes to look at Kakashi. There were some plans that Tsunade would not tell him, but Kakashi probably wouldn't lie.

office

Tsunade stared at Hui Youling with a serious face, and the two stared at each other silently for a long time. Hui Youling just stood there quietly, looking directly at Tsunade with a pair of dark eyes.

After a long time, Tsunade finally sighed as if she had given up, and could only say lightly, "Eyou Ling, you don't want the Sunagakure mission anymore?"

Hui Youling paused for a moment. She had forgotten that she still had a mission in Sunagakure. The most important thing was the matter of Red Sand Scorpion. That was the promise she made to Granny Chiyo. No matter what, she would never allow Scorpion to return. Xiao's.

Thinking of this, Hui Youling's eyes seemed to be much darker, like obsidian, but the light inside was incomprehensible.

However, she had not told Gaara since she ran back here alone. Although she knew that Gaara would not blame him, she could not delay for too long. "I know, I will rush over now."

Tsunade squinted at Hui Youling and ordered, "Go and check first."

Hui Youling smiled helplessly. This kind of thing was always so troublesome. It was obvious that she had nothing wrong and the examination could not find anything. However, she did not dare to refute and could only accept the order and said, "Okay."

……

When Hui Youling came out of the Hokage Tower, she saw Sakura waiting for her not far away. She seemed to have a warm feeling in her heart. When she walked to her side, she said angrily, "You actually used Granny Tsunade."

Sakura just tilted her head and smiled, and said proudly, "Who makes you always so willful?"

Hearing this, Hui Youling lowered his head and sneered, "Speaking of willfulness, you are the most willful."

Sakura shrugged, too lazy to argue, "I'm not the one. It's all E who always resists this kind of thing. It's obviously just an examination. Such resistance only makes me, a medical ninja, even more worried."

"I just know that I have nothing to do." Hui Youling sighed softly, and could only continue, "Let's go, I have to rush to Sunagakure later."

"Sunagakure? Why are you going again?" Hearing these two words, Sakura was actually a little angry. Even though Eyou Ling is Konoha's partner, she always goes to Sunagakure, doing something very tiring. People things.

Hui Youling just held Sakura's hand and led her towards the hospital, explaining softly, "It's not just because of Gaara, Sakura, you know."

"Not just..." This word made Sakura stunned, and she didn't understand her words. If it wasn't all for Gaara, then why did Eyou Ling help Sunagakure so much.

"Sakura, Grandma Tsunade sent me to Sunagakure. The first purpose was to let Gaara take care of me, but do you really think this is the only idea?" Eyou Ling took a step back and faced off against Sakura. While standing, he also lowered his voice to a volume that only the two of them could hear.

Sakura lowered her eyes and thought for a while, then thought carefully about what Eyou Ling said, and suddenly sighed, "Master... she wants to use you to stabilize Sunagakure's alliance..."

Hui Youling chuckled and reassured, "I don't think there's anything wrong with it. Sometimes you can use this kind of feeling if you like it. If Sunagakure uses it, Konoha can naturally use it."

"But, don't you think there is too much mixed with love? Then...if..."

"That's why I want to go to Sunagakure more often. Now many of Sunagakure's senior officials know me, and there are even more people who respect me. This is due to my efforts and also to Gaara's attitude."

"To be honest, I don't actually dislike this. It's actually not bad to have a relationship that is favored by everyone."

A relationship that can be favored by everyone...

But why do I always feel that when Hui Youling said these words, he was no longer as obsessed as before, or not calm, or even a little too rational.

"Ei, it seems that something has changed." Sakura said with a slight smile, but there was a bit of loss in her words.

Hui Youling turned to look at Xiaoying, and also noticed the hidden emotions in her green eyes, but she just smiled softly, "Maybe when you grow up, you always have to throw away some things, so as to prevent yourself from falling into the wrong path." the way."

"What if the discarded things are very precious?" Sakura suddenly asked.

"Being discarded means that it is not very important. Sakura, we are no longer that child, just like Gaara is no longer the bloodthirsty and selfish person before, and I will no longer be the emotional and A person who is not determined.”

Sakura was slightly startled. She always felt that what Eyouling said was more than just the superficial meaning. Gaara's change, then what he became, all she could think of was the shadow, the great love...

Yes, great love...it is no longer a personal feeling...

"What do you mean...do you really have to be so rational?" Sakura curled her hands on her chest, and she couldn't understand. She didn't understand Eyouling, and she didn't understand Gaara, or she didn't know if she still wanted to Persevere in love and pursue that person.

"Our positions must be clear from the beginning, Sakura. Although I like him and am willing to do many things for him, after all, I am a ninja of Konoha, and he is the shadow of Sunagakure. This is why after knowing Konoha When something happens, I won’t worry about whether I reported Gaara or not, but I rush over directly.”

"Even Grandma Tsunade doesn't want me to be a person with crooked elbows, let alone those who can't stand me."

Hearing this, Sakura didn't understand anything else, but there was always some regret in her heart, a regret that could not be expressed in words.

Now that I think about it, the reason why Hui Youling was able to let go of the past was really not because of friendship, but because of her ability, her bloodline, and her value.

The people the village can forgive are never mediocre people. This is the privilege of genius.

As a subordinate, you must understand your identity and your position.
