Chapter 139: Chapter 139: A Lover’s Greeting
Only if she could hold on for a few more days. If there are still no discoveries, then she could only give up, because she was very afraid of the other party's dog paws.
Those dog paws made her very uncomfortable.
The next day, Uzuki Yugao still came to the small grove where she had trained with Ryosuke before.
She knew that the other party would come to train at this time every day, and perhaps it was just a small accident before.
She had to figure out the secret of the other party's strength. If she didn't figure it out, she wouldn't be willing to give up just like that.
This time, she also raised her vigilance and would never get so close to the other party again. She could feel the other party's greed for her. Just by seeing the light in his eyes as he looked at her, she already knew.
Getting close was extremely dangerous.
Uchiha Ryosuke also hadn't expected that early in the morning, he could still see Uzuki Yugao. This time, Yugao was wearing a white training outfit. Seeing the other party again, he felt very happy.
"I didn't expect you to come again today. Do you still want to train with me?"
As he spoke, he couldn't help but approach the other party because he had once again thought of the other party's scent.
Yugao also noticed the other party approaching and couldn't help but step back. This bad guy was up to no good again.
She quickly said, "Of course, let's start training quickly."
She had to divert the other party's attention, and she had to work up a sweat. This way, the other party should not try anything with her.
Ryosuke noticed the other party's actions and felt a little dissatisfied in his heart.
"Didn't you say you liked me? Why does it seem like you're afraid of me?"
Uzuki Yugao forced a smile and said, "How could that be? I just want to start training as soon as possible, you're overthinking."
She was indeed afraid of the other party.
Ryosuke responded with an "Oh. So that's how it is."
But actually, he didn't believe the other party. However, it didn't matter.
In an instant, he moved his feet and immediately appeared in front of Yugao. He directly wrapped his arms around the other party's waist—so slender it could be held in one hand.
With a smile on his face, he said, "Since you don't hate it, let's start a lover's morning greeting and strengthen our relationship."
Yugao was completely dumbfounded. The other party's speed was so fast that she couldn't even react, and in an instant, she was hugged. She was still too close to the other party.
Then, she felt the strong masculine aura of the other party, which instantly made her a little dazed. And then, those two dog paws reached in, making her feel a strange sensation. She wanted to push the other party away, but she simply couldn't.
Half an hour later, Ryosuke finally let go of Yugao, feeling very satisfied.
"The lover's friendly morning greeting is done. Now, let's start our training."
He didn't explain the training content any further. He had already explained it to the other party yesterday, so he directly started jogging around the small grove.
Yugao, who was left standing in place, had a flushed face, feeling extremely angry. Looking at the distant figure, she was about to explode with rage.
She was taken advantage of by this guy again. She had thought that keeping enough distance this time would be enough. And before carrying out her plan, she had thought of many ways to avoid being taken advantage of by the other party, but none of them worked. It felt like she had read those books in vain.
This time, she had suffered a huge loss.
This guy was truly an animal, making her mouth and upper body feel numb. She felt like she was no longer pure. She had to raise her vigilance again and must guard her last line of defense.
Having suffered such a big loss, she had to carefully observe today and uncover the other party's secret to becoming stronger, so she could escape this demon as soon as possible.
She immediately lifted her legs and caught up with Ryosuke, observing his movements while running.
Maybe the other party had some special movements.
The whole morning, the two of them completed three rounds of training. At this moment, Yugao was also completely exhausted, drenched in sweat, and panting heavily.
The other party hid his secret well—she couldn't find any clues at all. It was just ordinary training.
Running, push-ups, squats, sit-ups—compared to other more grueling training methods, this was actually quite normal.
The only difference was the volume of training.
She had seen those Taijutsu ninjas who tied a huge rock to their waist while running. The intensity of their training was much greater than what she was seeing now.
Could it be that the other party had already discovered that she was a spy?
She was actually well aware that her skills as a spy were subpar. Thinking of this, her face changed—was that really the case?
The more she thought about it, the more possible it seemed. That's why the other party was hiding things.
'This despicable guy.'
Then she put on a slightly delicate look with some anger on her face. "Ryosuke, is this really the kind of training that made you so strong?"
Hearing the other party's words, Ryosuke realized that she seemed to be trying to find out why he became strong. He answered casually, "Yes, training like this every day with dedication makes my body stronger and stronger."
He wasn't lying—this was indeed how he became stronger. As long as he trained every day, his body would gain attribute points, and his body would grow stronger. When he opened the Eight Gates, he would be even stronger.
Even though he now had other attack techniques—like the Mangekyō Sharingan, which could activate Susanoo—ultimately, his greatest strength was still the Eight Gates.
And the Eight Gates relied entirely on the body's capabilities.
When fighting future enemies, those with Rinnegan and beyond, the Eight Gates would still be powerful. Against such opponents, he needed Senjutsu or Taijutsu. Ninjutsu alone wouldn't be effective.
That was why he insisted on training.
Hearing the other party's words, Yugao still didn't quite believe it. This was obviously just ordinary training. She had followed this training herself—yesterday and today.
But she didn't feel any stronger at all, just endlessly exhausted.
This guy definitely wasn't telling the truth. She couldn't help but feel a little angry and said, "Ryosuke, would you even lie to your girlfriend? This doesn't work at all."
Ryosuke shook his head and said, "How could I deceive you? I've always trained like this. Have you seen me do any other training?"
Yugao was helpless—the other party was right. Based on her investigation, the other party had indeed always trained in this small grove, almost every day.
But from her own experience and common sense, this kind of training definitely wasn't the secret. There had to be something else.
But even if she asked now, how could the other party possibly tell her such an important secret? They had only known each other for two days, and their relationship wasn't that deep yet.
She hesitated—should she make a greater sacrifice to deepen their relationship? But taking it further would be crossing her final line.
That was absolutely unacceptable.
Her mind was in turmoil.
———
Now that Ryosuke had finished training and gained physical attribute boosts, he planned to head home in the afternoon.
But before leaving, he still wanted to tease the other party.
"Yugao, do you want to come to my place for a bit? You should clean off that sweat."
Yugao immediately became alert. 'This guy is at it again.'
Going back with him would be like a lamb walking into a tiger's den. If this guy lost control, she would truly be ruined. So she absolutely couldn't go.
"I'll pass, I'll just go home myself."
Ryosuke wasn't surprised by this response. Instead, he slowly approached her.
Yugao didn't dodge because she was covered in sweat. She didn't believe he would still dare to kiss her.
But then, a devil's whisper came into her ear.
