Naruto: Tenten is my fiancée

Chapter 229 Sugar-free Sweetness

A new seafood buffet recently opened in the area where Shizune, Tsunade and the others live, and business is booming.

Maple Leaf is far from the seaside, so if you don’t rely on transportation, you can only go to the seaside city to eat seafood. No matter which method you choose, it will undoubtedly increase the cost of eating seafood for people in Maple Leaf, which is also a common problem in some inland cities.

The price of this seafood buffet is of course expensive, but compared to all-you-can-eat buffets, it is still affordable.

Since the establishment of Maple Leaf Source Airlines, the price of inland seafood has dropped slightly. Although air transportation is also very expensive, it is still more cost-effective than previous transportation methods.

In the past, seafood that was transported would die before reaching half the distance, and the price of dead seafood would drop by half. Now, seafood arrives at the market within two hours of the same day, and is almost always alive and kicking when it lands.

The seafood buffet that Princess Tsunade chose for her birthday is a large chain brand that has emerged recently. They even have their own cold chain for transportation, so they can engage in price wars while ensuring quality.

At a corner, Shizune and the others met up with the people they were waiting for. From a distance, they saw the big and small combination. Tsunade saw Tenten holding a bouquet of flowers, and she was even a little nervous. Logically, the flowers should be for her, but no one can be sure before they are given. When something is about to be done, it is the most elusive.

"Hey! Here! Here!"

Shizune greeted them directly, Tenten turned around and smiled at them, then quickly walked up to Tsunade and handed the beautiful bouquet of flowers in her hand to her.

"People are like flowers, and flowers are like people. I wish you will be as beautiful as this flower every year. Happy birthday! Sister Tsunade!"

"Thank you! Tiantian, you said it very well!"

These words touched Tsunade's heart and made her feel like crying instantly. Which woman doesn't want to bloom like a flower?

Nohara Lin walked up to Li Qing and asked in a low voice.

"Did you teach it?"

"Tiantian just saw some birthday greeting quotes. She is self-taught."

Seeing Tian Tian sending flowers, Li Qing thought it was a loving scene. But the way she called her sister was a little bit annoying. The two of them were nearly 40 years apart, but they were actually like sisters. However, judging from their current appearance, one was much older than her peers, while the other looked like a teenager, and seemed to be no different from a sister.

Seeing Tsunade's happy look, Li Qing felt that this was not a bad thing. It also takes courage to live the way you like.

The group chatted and laughed as they walked towards the seafood buffet. It was the rush hour after get off work, and people were coming and going in an endless stream. The evening rush hour always has a little more relaxation and pleasure than the morning rush hour.

There was a little slug lying on Tsunade's shoulder. She was also among the invited guests. When no one else was paying attention, the little slug waved its tentacles at Li Qing a few times.

When they arrived, Li Qing and his group sat down directly. This was all reserved by Jingyin in advance. Today was not a Saturday or Sunday, so there were not many people. Since Jingyin did not eat pork, they simply did not bring any pork-related ingredients today. After all, Tuntun was also with them today and was being held by Tiantian at the moment.

While eating, Jingyin said that this restaurant charges 3000 taels per customer, and most people probably don't come here often. And when paying the bill, they also specifically asked the customer if he had any special secrets to eat well, and the charging standard for such customers is different. In other words, 3000 taels per person is only for ordinary people, and special groups will be treated differently.

"I think this shop might have been taught some ninja secrets, otherwise they wouldn't be so careful."

Finally, Jingyin reasonably speculated on the reason why the self-service store did that. Just now, when Jingyin took the ingredients, she checked them all carefully. There were no defective ingredients here, all of them were genuine.

If there really were some people who knew the secret art of eating a lot, this large chain store would have gone bankrupt long ago.

During the meal, Nohara Rin went to the next door to get the cake that had been ordered. In order to please Lady Tsunade, Shizune directly put a candle representing the number 18 on the cake. When some people who didn't know passed by, they really thought that this was a birthday party for an 18-year-old girl!

Although it was a buffet, there were no big eaters among the group, and nothing was particularly eye-catching.

While Princess Tsunade was celebrating her birthday at a seafood buffet, Uchiha Obito was also celebrating someone else's birthday at a store next door.

"I know you don't like being around a lot of people, so I celebrated with my family at noon and came out with you alone in the evening."

The girl sitting opposite Uchiha Obito explained to him in a soft voice, and then smiled at him. She had bright eyes and white teeth, but her body looked a little thin.

"Ok!"

In response to the other side's long string of words, Uchiha Obito only responded with one word.

After that, he began to put candles on the cake, a total of 18 candles. He had just picked them up from a nearby store. This cake was ordered a week ago. The reason why it was ordered so far in advance was because his requirements were difficult and required a sugar-free sweet taste.

"Make a wish!"

These two words did not express any emotion, but they made the girl opposite very happy.

She clasped her hands together, closed her eyes and began to make a wish. After a while, she opened her eyes again. Then she blew on the small cake, but her strength was not enough to blow out all the candles. She took a breath and exhaled hard, but still failed to blow out all the candles. This made her a little shocked.

"Don't worry!"

Hearing the encouragement, the girl smiled, took a breath again, and finally blew out all the remaining candles. Seeing that all the candles were out, she patted her chest gently as if she was relieved. She heard that if the candles were not extinguished, the wish would not come true. You can only make one wish on a birthday. At noon, she closed her eyes and did not make a wish at all. She saved it for this moment.

Uchiha Obito took down the candle, then divided the small cake into two halves, one half for himself and the other half to the other side.

“There’s no sugar in this, but it’s sweet and you can eat it!”

When the girl heard what the other person said, her eyes widened, and she quickly picked up the spoon next to her, scooped a spoonful and put it into her mouth. The next moment, two lines of tears fell from her eyes.

She hadn't tasted sweetness for a long time.

"Thank you! For bringing water."
