"Huh?"
Hinata was instantly confused.
Hiashi, calmly drinking tea, raised an eyebrow but said nothing.
"Since we have an engagement, you are no longer just a Hyuga main family girl, but half an Uchiha."
"So you need to get used to some things in advance, like calling me by my name directly. Give it a try."
Yan treated Hiashi as if he were invisible and started teaching Hinata, raising his hand to rub her head.
It was clear that Hinata was very nervous, her pale face turning red.
She looked like a steam engine, and Yan seriously wondered if an egg would cook on her head.
Wow, Uchiha Yan, you are really straightforward!
Even if the visit was just a formality, ignoring my presence in front of my daughter, is this appropriate?
At this moment, Hiashi could understand some of Fugaku's experiences.
When the two families arranged the marriage, Fugaku had warned Hiashi.
Yan has a unique personality and sometimes doesn't pay much attention to the clan leader.
He hoped Hiashi wouldn't get angry in such situations, as it would only upset himself.
Sure enough, just a few days after the warning, the real situation happened.
Hinata was so nervous she couldn't speak and looked helplessly at her father, hoping for help.
Unfortunately, Hiashi seemed not to notice his daughter's plea and continued drinking his tea, treating himself as invisible.
"By the way, Patriarch Hiashi, tomorrow I will inform some families in the village to gather at the barbecue restaurant to discuss some matters."
"Barbecue restaurant?"
Inviting families means it's a big deal.
But isn't the meeting place a bit casual?
You could have chosen a teahouse or a more high end place.
Why choose a barbecue restaurant?
Hiashi frowned slightly, about to remind Yan, but Yan spoke first:
"The Ino-Shika-Cho trio has also been invited, so we chose the barbecue restaurant. This time, the big guy should come out."
"..."
Hiashi's eye twitched, and he coughed, correcting Yan:
"You should call him Lord Choza, don't do this next time."
If the nickname "big guy" spread, people would think Hiashi taught it.
He didn't want to take the blame.
Fugaku liked taking the blame, but Hiashi didn't.
So it's better to be careful.
"I will attend on time."
"Hinata, can you go for a walk with me?"
Hinata's head was almost buried in her chest, so Yan suggested going for a walk to relax her.
The high-pressure education of the Hyuga clan could really harm people.
Hinata looked at her father for help again, and this time Hiashi didn't ignore her plea. He nodded slightly, agreeing.
"Okay, okay."
With her father's permission, Hinata stammered her agreement.
"Go change your clothes, it's not suitable to go out like this."
Hiashi found an excuse to send his daughter away.
"Yes, father!"
Hinata straightened her back, responded loudly, and left after a formal bow.
Watching Hinata calculate her steps as she walked, Yan couldn't help but shake his head.
"You seem disappointed in Hinata?"
Hiashi raised an eyebrow and asked directly.
"Not at all."
Yan smiled and replied:
"Actually, Hinata is very cute. I shook my head because she has been turned into a puppet that only moves with strings."
The atmosphere instantly became tense.
A strong aura erupted from Hiashi, but Yan looked back calmly, unaffected:
"Sorry, it may sound harsh, but I'm telling the truth. I think Patriarch Hiashi also wants to change this situation, right?"
Otherwise, given the situation of the Hyuga clan, it wouldn't be so easy to marry into the Uchiha."
"Uchiha Yan, do you know what you're saying?"
Hyuga Hiashi's chest heaved with anger, feeling the urge to slap Yan out.
"Of course I know, but what I want to say is, since the marriage is set, Hinata's future identity is not just the daughter of the main family, but also the future fiancée of the Uchiha elder. I hope the high-pressure education of the main family won't be imposed on her anymore."
Before, it was the Hyuga clan's own business, unrelated to him, and he had no right to interfere.
Now it's different, as it concerns his future marriage. Yan definitely doesn't want Hinata to grow up under such a twisted high-pressure education.
It's like a bird locked in a cage, with its wings chained tightly.
Before, it had nothing to do with me!
Now, it needs to change.
Just as Fugaku said, this kid is really annoying!!
If it were someone from his own clan, Hiashi would definitely make him pay!
But the one saying this is Yan, so what if he's his future son-in-law?
Would Hyuga Hiashi dare to make a move?
The result of making a move would probably be getting beaten up instead.
Hiashi had no doubt that if he made the first move, Yan would definitely fight back.
"Hmph, I'll keep that in mind. Hinata should have changed her clothes by now, bring her back early!!"
Hiashi directly issued an order to leave.
He was afraid that if he stayed with Yan any longer, he wouldn't be able to resist making a move.
So much so that tomorrow, rumors would spread in Konohagakure that Hyuga Hiashi, the father-in-law, made a move on his son-in-law, only to be beaten up by him instead.
Yan left decisively. Hiashi didn't want to stay alone with him, and neither did he.
Staying longer and talking more would only make Hiashi angrier, so it was better to leave early.
Soon, Hinata arrived.
Yan took Hinata and left the Hyuga clan's land.
The little girl was extremely nervous, twisting her clothes and obediently following behind him.
After Yan and Hinata left, several elders of the main family came to the Patriarch's courtyard.
The Patriarch seemed to be in a bad mood. Did he have a quarrel with Uchiha Yan?
Uchiha and Hyuga, both big clans, had vastly different clan rules.
Sometimes, getting closer and mingling might not be a good thing.
Hiashi was the most typical example.
He was successfully angered.
"Patriarch, you..."
"It's nothing."
Hiashi sighed, his expression quickly turning angry again:
"Yan went too far, saying that Hinata is not only our Hyuga main family girl but also the future Uchiha elder's wife, so the clan's training methods can't be used on her anymore."
"....."
Isn't that obvious?
The elders wanted to roll their eyes until it become white, even though they already had white eyes.
In the future, when she marries into Uchiha, others definitely wouldn't want Hinata's education to be the same as before!
Moreover, it couldn't be the same, as the clan's heir would need to be chosen separately.
