Chapter 22 : Friends!!
Hyuga Hinata?
Genya was surprised to see a young Hinata here, and she was crying.
He couldn't believe his luck in stumbling upon her.
Then he felt a bit pleased—it looked like this was the scene where Hinata ran away from home.
"The eldest daughter of the Hyuga clan, the future beauty. I didn't expect to meet her. What a lucky guy!" Genya couldn't help but smile, feeling happy inside.
He thought, "Sorry, Naruto. Hinata is such a sweet, innocent girl. I'll be the one to protect her from now on."
"Anyway, you don't care about Hinata. Go after your so-called perfect Haruno Sakura. The kind and gentle Hinata isn't right for you."
"Who are you? Wuwu~~" Seeing Genya's relaxed smile, Hinata became tense again, eyeing him suspiciously.
"Ahem. I'm a good person," Genya said, a bit speechless. Seeing her pitiful state, he smiled and said, "Why are you crying? You must be hungry. Let me take you to get some ramen!"
Without waiting for her response, Genya took her hand and led her towards the ramen shop.
"There's nothing a meal can't fix for kids."
