Hanabi's murmur was heard by Naruto.
Neji, standing next to her, naturally heard it as well.
Then, Naruto observed that the already displeased expression of this brother-in-law had gained an extra layer of annoyance.
"Did he change his job to a sister-con?" Naruto muttered in his heart.
Although this was the first time Naruto had faced Neji like this, Hinata had told him about her brother many times.
He would occasionally see this brother-in-law at school.
Neji's experiences were exactly the same as in the manga.
He lost his father at a young age and was branded with the Caged Bird Curse Mark. Despite having considerable talent for cultivation, he was always full of resentment towards the clan and the village.
In the manga, Hinata was weak and simply couldn't shoulder the responsibility of the Main Family.
This made Neji feel that his father's sacrifice was in vain, and he felt it wasn't worth it, thus hating Hinata, who was the heiress of the Main Family.
It wasn't until Naruto in the manga used his talk-no-jutsu and he learned his father's true thoughts that the hostility in his heart disappeared.
In reality, although Neji still hated the Main Family and the village, he no longer thought his father's sacrifice was worthless because of Hinata's outstanding performance.
In addition, Hinata often sparred with him to show her goodwill, which preserved the close sibling relationship they had as children, and he became very protective of his younger sister Hanabi as well.
The current Neji doesn't want to protect the Main Family; all he wants to protect are his sisters.
Now, facing Naruto, the brat who abducted his sister, Neji, as her brother, naturally felt displeased.
Of course, it was just displeasure.
Two years ago, the matter of Naruto showing off his muscles had spread throughout the upper echelons of the village and the Jonin circle.
Although these younger generations hadn't seen that scene, they had been warned by their elders not to provoke Naruto unless they wanted to be beaten up, and losing their lives because of it would leave them with no one to reason with.
Naruto didn't care about his brother-in-law's displeasure and invited with a smile, "Hanabi, Neji, want to have dinner together? My treat."
After a pause, fearing that the two would refuse, he added, "I'll go get Hinata."
"Sister is training with Father, she doesn't have time to come out for dinner, but I accept your offer, hmph." Hanabi rolled her eyes. Now that Naruto had brought up Hinata, she naturally couldn't refuse.
"I'll be quick, wait a moment."
After Naruto finished speaking, a Flying Thunder God Technique took him outside the Hyuga Main House.
The guards saw Naruto and, without needing to say anything, immediately went to report to the house.
At this moment, Hinata was sparring with her father, practicing the Taijiquan she had learned from Naruto.
With Naruto's generous teaching, the Hyuga Clan had recently gained many new Taijutsu ideas and was trying to improve them and integrate them into their Gentle Fist.
Hearing that Naruto was waiting outside, she met her old father's complex gaze, bowed and excused herself without hesitation, and hurried off to change her clothes.
"It seems that the matter of cultivating Hanabi recently needs to be put on the agenda."
Watching Hinata's back disappear, Hyuga Hiashi frowned and muttered.
This eldest daughter has considerable talent in cultivation, and the Pupil Power of her Byakugan is also strong, but she is wholeheartedly focused on that brat named Naruto.
Considering that the Fourth's Son's status is quite a good match, but if Hinata marries, she won't be able to inherit the Hyuga Main Family.
It's also unrealistic to have Naruto, this Jinchuriki, be the one to move in, at least the Third Hokage wouldn't agree.
Rejecting this marriage is even more unrealistic. Hiashi dares to guarantee that the unruly kid who dares to flex his muscles in front of the Third Hokage might just tear down his entire Hyuga Clan.
What's more, this son-in-law is quite sensible.
Whenever Hiashi thinks of the stable and huge profits brought by the Heavens and Earth Hot Spring Hotel, he can't help but grin from ear to ear.
At first, the profits from this hot spring hotel were only enough for Hinata to eat and drink, but as time passed, the hotel's reputation and word-of-mouth continued to improve, and the profits it brought also increased day by day.
As a result, Hiashi could only start training Hanabi, this alternate account, again.
Fortunately, Hiashi isn't too old, only in his thirties, and has enough time to wait for Hanabi to grow up and become a qualified heir to the Main Family. It's not impossible to have another child.
Outside the Hyuga Main House, Naruto waited for no more than twenty minutes.
He then saw Hinata, who had just taken a bath and changed into a dress, running out in a hurry.
"I met your sister Hanabi and Neji at the hot spring hotel, so I invited them to have dinner together."
Naruto explained simply. Hinata nodded shyly, and then, holding Naruto's hand, was taken to the entrance of the hot spring hotel by a Flying Thunder God Technique.
At this time, Naruto saw a young man dressed as a wealthy merchant, with a gentle expression and wearing round-framed glasses, talking to Hanabi and Neji, who were sitting on a sofa in a corner of the hotel lobby.
From the shape of his mouth, it could be judged that he was trying to get close to them.
Judging from his words, he probably wanted to get acquainted and have them introduce him to the Hyuga Clan for some business cooperation.
This young wealthy merchant had a very high level of rhetoric. In the short time since Naruto left, he had already gained the favor of Hanabi and Neji. The two sides talked and laughed, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
"Yakushi Kabuto?" Naruto muttered in his heart.
Others may not recognize this person, but Naruto recognized him from the huge Chakra and temperament on his body.
"Coming to inquire about me, or simply Sasuke's information? Speaking of which, it's almost time for the Konoha Crush Plan. Orochimaru recently suffered a defeat at Itachi's place, and now he should be very eager to get Sasuke's body, right?"
"After communicating with Danzo, he learned that Sasuke often stays here now, so he came to scout the place, so that Orochimaru can attack in a while?"
"You should pray that the Hyuga clansmen here don't open their Byakugan casually, so as not to cause misunderstandings among the guests, otherwise you should be exposed as soon as you arrive."
Thinking of this, Naruto's eyes rolled.
Letting Hinata go over to join Hanabi and Neji, Naruto didn't rush over, but found a Hyuga guard hidden in the dark and asked, "How long has that guest been staying at the hot spring hotel?"
"Just checked in two hours ago."
The guard hiding in the dark was startled when he heard the sudden words in his ear. After seeing that it was Naruto, he relaxed and replied.
Naruto nodded upon hearing this and said, "Charge them super double for everything. Go and notify the accountant, just say it's what I said. If the other party has any questions about the bill, just find an excuse to perfunctorily deal with it."
The Hyuga guard was stunned for a moment, looking at Naruto in confusion, not understanding why he was targeting this guest.
However, he didn't ask any more questions, and with a flash, he went to notify the accountant.
