Chapter 24 - Goes Shopping With Mikoto!

**Shimura Clan**

"Ah!!! Damn Senju brats!"

Shimura Danzō angrily tore Senju Takuya's reply into pieces.

Originally, after sending the marriage letter, he happily waited at home for Senju Takuya to propose marriage with a generous betrothal gift. By the way, he imagined himself becoming Hokage in the future.

Unexpectedly, the betrothal gift did not come. Instead, he received an insulting letter from Senju Takuya!

The first time he saw the contents of the letter, Shimura Danzō was so angry that he almost had a heart attack. Senju Takuya not only rejected his marriage proposal but also mocked his daughter as a fat pig that no one wanted and would not marry even if she was willing to give up. No one in Konoha had dared to talk to him like this for countless years!

"Father, what's wrong?" Shimura Hozumi looked at Shimura Danzō's gloomy face and asked strangely.

"Fine. It's just that the marriage was rejected by Senju Takuya," Shimura Danzō took a deep breath and calmed down.

"What? How dare that guy refuse your request?" Hearing Shimura Danzō's words, Shimura Hozumi said in surprise. In his opinion, the Shimura clan was doing the Senju clan a favor by proposing marriage. But the other party actually refused! Does Senju Takuya really think that this is still the time when the Senju clan was in power?

Seeing Shimura Hozumi's surprised look, Shimura Danzō secretly complained in his heart. Not only was he rejected, but he was also scolded. However, this kind of thing was too embarrassing to tell his son.

"Father, what are you going to do? I can't swallow this," Shimura Hozumi said viciously. In Konoha, he was the only one who bullied others, and no one dared to bully him!

"What else can be done? Get out of here quickly, I'll get annoyed when I see you," Shimura Danzō waved his hand impatiently. With Uzumaki Mito and Tsunade around, he really didn't dare to do anything to Senju Takuya. Moreover, he couldn't let others know about this either. Otherwise, not only was his engagement broken off, but he was also insulted. Then the prestige he had worked so hard to build over the years would probably be destroyed in one day.

Seeing Shimura Danzō getting angry, Shimura Hozumi had no choice but to retreat. Only, the expression on his face became increasingly gloomy.

"Damn Senju Takuya, I must make him look good when I meet him next time! Don't you want to revive Senju by having children? Then I will make you cut off your descendants!" Thinking of this, Shimura Hozumi had a cold smile on his face and quickly left the Shimura compound.

**Konoha Village**

**Short Book Street**

Uchiha Mikoto was walking on the road, with the corners of her mouth raised in a nice arc from time to time. Recently, she was in a very good mood. She finally understood the inexplicable words Uzumaki Kushina said to her that day because, not long ago, Senju Takuya actually went to the Uchiha clan and proposed marriage to the clan leader, Uchiha Chishima! And the betrothal gift turned out to be ten copper mines!

Although she didn't know how much a copper mine was worth, Uchiha Mikoto could guess roughly from recent rumors. The key is, the Senju clan and the Uchiha clan have always been at odds. Once Senju Takuya's proposal of marriage is rejected, he may become the laughing stock of the entire Konoha. But even so, Senju Takuya still came to the Uchiha clan to propose marriage. How could she not be happy that a man was willing to pay such a high price for her?

Boom!

Just when Uchiha Mikoto's thoughts were racing, she suddenly bumped into a man.

"Ah~" Uchiha Mikoto exclaimed, and fell backward uncontrollably. But the next second, a pair of warm hands wrapped around her waist and hips, gently supporting her.

"You?!" Feeling the man's palm on her buttocks, Uchiha Mikoto was furious. She raised her hand and hit the man hard.

Snap!

But her wrist was easily grabbed by the man.

"Mikoto, don't you recognize me?" Senju Takuya helped Uchiha Mikoto up and asked with a smile.

"Takuya?!" Uchiha Mikoto exclaimed. Seeing her fiancé in such a scene, Uchiha Mikoto's heart couldn't help but beat wildly.

"It's not a good habit to be distracted while walking," Senju Takuya smiled.

"I'm... so sorry," Uchiha Mikoto lowered her head and whispered.

"Hahahaha... Mikoto, you are still the same as before, you haven't changed at all," Senju Takuya laughed.

"Takuya, you too. Still so... handsome," Uchiha Mikoto mustered up her courage and said with a blush. This was what she wanted to say in the ninja academy, but she didn't have the courage to say it until today.

"Mikoto, what are you going to do?" Senju Takuya asked.

"Nothing, just strolling around," Uchiha Mikoto replied.

"Yeah? I happen to have nothing to do, so why not come together? We haven't seen each other in years," Senju Takuya smiled.

"Um," Uchiha Mikoto nodded vigorously. Now, she is Senju Takuya's fiancée. If her future husband invites her to go shopping, she can't refuse, right?

Just when Uchiha Mikoto was thinking wildly, Senju Takuya naturally held her hand. Today, he came specifically to meet Uchiha Mikoto. Although in a few days, she would become his wife, proper emotional contact was still necessary.

"Look, that's the leader of the Senju clan, Senju Takuya!"

"Huh? Who is the woman next to him? She doesn't seem to be the wife of the senju clan leader, right?"

"Idiot, look at her wearing the clothes of the Uchiha clan, she must be the future wife of the senju clan leader, Uchiha Mikoto!"

"This is Uchiha Mikoto. She's so beautiful. No wonder the he is willing to give out ten copper mines as a betrothal gift."

"It's such a blessing to be chosen by Chief Takuya."

"Yes, he is handsome and rich. He is the perfect husband template."

Shopping while being held by Senju Takuya's hand, listening to the chatter of the villagers on the street, two blushes appeared on Uchiha Mikoto's face. She was originally a very introverted person, and what she liked most was to be alone. Every time she was looked at by others, she felt a little uncomfortable. She didn't know why, but being held hand in hand by Senju Takuya while shopping today and becoming the focus of everyone's discussion made her feel a little sweet.

Could it be, is this what happiness feels like? Uchiha Mikoto couldn't help but think.

Watching Uchiha Mikoto giggle from time to time, Senju Takuya was also in a very good mood. In his previous life, he was very fond of these female characters in Naruto. Now, they were standing in front of him alive, and they were about to be married into his home. This feeling, it's really wonderful.

Pity, good times are always short-lived. While the two were shopping happily, a harsh voice sounded.

"Yo~ Isn't this the useless leader of the Senju clan? If you have so many wives and you are not busy going home and making babies, how can you have time to hang out?"
