Naruto, this game world seems a bit real.

Chapter 248 Substitution

Looking at the ninja academy in front of him, Ye Li mentally prepared himself for a while before stepping inside.

"Where is the teacher's office again?" she forgot.

"I think I should ask someone."

Ye Li looked around and saw a child passing by. He immediately called out, "Little pineapple head, stop right there."

Shikamaru was puzzled when he heard the voice; it couldn't be calling him.

Just as he was about to take another step forward, someone grabbed his shoulder and pressed it down hard. "Little Pineapple Head is calling you. Are you still going?"

"Could you give me directions? Where is the teacher's office?"

Shikamaru was speechless. He needed help and then had to give her a nickname. Women really are troublesome creatures.

He pointed to the teaching building in the distance, "It's on the third floor of that building."

Having received the answer, Ye Li immediately released Shikamaru. "Thank you, little pineapple head," she said, before heading towards the teaching building.

Shikamaru watched her departing figure, noticing the headband tied around her waist, and guessed, "A new teacher?"

At this moment, he just hoped it wasn't this class he was teaching, otherwise it would be extremely troublesome, and he hated being called "Little Pineapple Head".

Ye Li asked for directions while the child was carrying her on his back. She didn't even get a clear look at what the child looked like, and she would never have guessed that it was Shikamaru.

As she approached the office, she removed her mask and put it away.

Reaching the door, Ye Li knocked.

Since it was our first time here, it didn't seem right to just barge in.

Seeing someone looking over, she asked, "Excuse me, is Iruka-sensei here?"

Her voice was soft, yet it was clear to everyone.

Upon hearing this sound, most of the teachers in the teachers' office turned to look at the doorway.

They were all stunned for a moment, "How can someone be so good-looking?"

An older-looking middle-aged teacher was the first to react, calling out to Iruka, who was diligently grading homework in the corner, "Iruka, someone is looking for you."

Ye Li looked at the person and immediately recognized him as Nakamura, her former teacher. Nakamura didn't seem to recognize her, perhaps because she had changed her appearance slightly.

However, considering she only stayed at the Ninja Academy for a year, graduated at seven, and is now fourteen, it's quite normal that she wouldn't be recognized even if she looked the same as before.

Upon hearing this, Iruka stopped what he was doing. Ye Li walked in and stood in front of his desk. "Hello, I was sent by the Fourth Hokage to temporarily take over your work."

Iruka looked up and two streams of blood instantly flowed from his nose. He frantically grabbed a tissue from the side and covered it with the blood.

Ye Li turned his head away and sighed inwardly, "I really still have to wear a mask, otherwise it's a real hassle."

She never intended to become less attractive; it's simply not her style.

"I'm sorry, that was really rude of me!" Iruka dared not look at that face.

"It's alright, I didn't see anything," Ye Li said understandingly, then added, "Let's hand over the work!"

"Ah! Okay!" Iruka pulled out a chair from somewhere, and Ye Li sat down without any hesitation.

With such a beautiful girl beside him, Iruka felt incredibly nervous, but his love for teaching allowed him to quickly return to normal and hand over his work.

Ye Li, on the other hand, felt completely overwhelmed. Even after leaving the school, she was still dizzy and seemed to have forgotten everything.

Only when she got home and lay in bed did she feel like she had come back to life.

"As expected, not just anyone can be a teacher. Luckily, she only needs to cover for ten days."

After taking a nap, she left home to find something to eat. Passing by the spot where she used to buy her house in the neighborhood, she stopped. "Has it been rebuilt?"

"Does Kakashi still live here?"

She thought about it for a moment, then put it out of her mind and walked into the street.

"There are so many more shops!" Ye Li exclaimed, increasingly unsure of what to eat.

She walked aimlessly down the street, noticing someone watching her from behind, and looked up.

"Itachi... how come he's here? Shouldn't he be in the Hokage Building?"

The two gazed at each other from afar, their eyes meeting.

Time seemed to stand still at that moment; the two had eyes only for each other, and the passersby seemed not to exist.

Ye Li's heart began to pound uncontrollably, and memories of the past flashed through her mind like a movie.

She admitted defeat, lowered her head, and dared not look at him again. She turned and walked to the other side.

She hadn't taken two steps when a familiar voice rang out beside her, "Ye, let's have some food!"

Ye Li stopped and turned to look at Itachi. "Why don't you blame me for lying to you so much?" Her voice grew softer as she spoke.

Even though I was prepared to face it, I still felt incredibly guilty at the crucial moment.

"Ye, none of this matters, as long as you're still here..."

"In this world..."

Itachi didn't say the last sentence.

Grilled meat Q.

Seeing Itachi busy at work, Ye Li looked embarrassed and said, "Itachi, why don't I do it myself?"

"Actually, I've made a lot of progress during the time I was away."

"Are you sure?" A hint of surprise flashed across Itachi's face.

Hearing Itachi's question, Ye Li looked unconvinced and immediately picked up a piece of meat to grill.

"Game, game, be a human for once!" she silently wished in her heart before placing the grilled meat into Itachi's bowl. "Itachi, try some!"

Under the expectant gazes, Itachi Uchiha couldn't resist and picked up his chopsticks to eat.

Itachi swallowed the meat in his mouth, pursed his lips, and said tactfully, "Ye, from now on, you are not allowed to touch anything related to food."

"Itachi, but judging from your expression, it doesn't look like it's badly eaten." Ye Li rested his chin on his hands, tapping his cheeks with his fingers, looking at Itachi with disbelief.

"Idiot, that's because you baked it."

As Itachi spoke, he placed the grilled meat onto the plate in front of her. "Eat up!"

"Itachi is so annoying, always teasing her!" Ye Li thought bitterly to herself, but a happy smile appeared on her face.

She picked up a lettuce leaf, took some grilled meat from the plate, put it inside, and wrapped it up.

"Uh...it seems like I put in too much; it's as big as a fist when wrapped up."

Itachi chuckled and got up to sit next to her. "Ye, let me wrap it for you."

He deliberately sat here because he was really annoyed that people kept glancing at where Ye was sitting. Sitting next to her would block their view.

Ye Li was taken aback for a moment, then refused, "Itachi, I have my own hands!"

"I know, but hands aren't enough!"

As it spoke, Itachi took the food from her hand, rewrapped it, and fed it to her.

Ye Li hesitated for a moment, then opened her mouth and ate it.

Once you've had the first time, you'll have countless more.

She gradually started making requests, all of which were fulfilled.

Ye Li fed it to Itachi again, but instead fed it to Itachi instead, saying, "Don't just feed me, you should eat some too!"

"Hmm." Itachi chewed his food with a smile.

To outsiders, the two looked like a young couple, surrounded by a sweet, romantic atmosphere.

Little did they know that a pair of jealous eyes had been watching them all along.

"Shuimu, what are you looking at?" Shuimu's colleague asked in confusion, and then looked in the direction Shuimu was looking.

"Hey... isn't this the new teacher who came to the office today?"

"The person sitting next to her looks like Itachi Uchiha, and they seem to be very close."

He felt a pang of disappointment after he finished speaking. He had previously fantasized about having the advantage of proximity, but reality had dealt him a heavy blow.

With such an opponent around, there's definitely no chance.

Shui Mu sneered and didn't reply. He had seen plenty of girls like this, and he was confident that he could definitely get his hands on her using his methods.
