Chapter 165: Terumi Mei

Entering the residence through the main entrance, Ao guided the guest through the security post, and the two finally entered the Mizukage's spacious office. Shikamaru was once again convinced of the differences in cultures. Although, it could very well be that all this is due to Terumi Mei. Still, women liked beautiful places more ... The large office was decorated with a couple of bush trees, and on a separate table there was a whole vase with fresh flowers. Even the smell in the office was clearly different from Hiruzen's smoky room. Shikamaru even involuntarily smiled ... The hall is larger, there are a couple of wardrobes in the wall, and even a comfortable sofa with a tea table. As if not at Kage's reception ...

Finally, the guy's gaze sharpened, as he felt someone's gaze from the side. Naturally, it was not some old man with a cane, not a small bespectacled guy with a strange sword, but the Mizukage herself - Terumi Mei! At the same time, the views of the two crossed. Shikamaru smiled and scanned the girl's body with a searching look.

Ao all this time was silent, as if he did not dare to make a speech, he was ordered not to even touch the guest's weapon and once again not be rude, therefore he behaved with restraint. The guy with the strange sword was embarrassed and bowed his head. The old man at the wall was staring at Shikamaru, but he wasn't even honored with a glance.

The young man slowly walked to Mei's table, continuing to look at her, while she was already beginning to noticeably nervous from such a close examination. In addition, the attention of a pleasant young man with such eyes ... Mei was noticeably embarrassed, all this was reflected on her reddened face. Just then, Ao finally broke down for such a strange and long pause. He realized that this boy had decided to have a little duel of glances. It was not difficult for Ao to understand who would win, because he knew Mei's weakness better than anyone ...

`` Lady Mizu ... '' but before he could finish, Mei's eyes flashed, and she ordered menacingly:

- Go away, everyone!

- What? Chuojiro blinked in surprise.

The still silent old man got up and slowly trudged to the door, as if he did not care what was happening, and he was not going to discuss the orders. Only Ao stayed while everyone started to leave. He glanced displeasedly at the back of Shikamaru, who was still throwing strange glances at the shy girl, while Mei only pretended to look sternly at Ao:

- Will he repeat it? Terumi asked again, once again throwing a fleeting glance at the guy studying her.

Ao only sighed and nevertheless turned around and left the office. Arguing with the Mizukage is definitely not the best idea, it can be terribly creepy in anger ...

So, the guy and the girl were left alone in the office. Shikamaru smiled again, amazed once again by the beauty of the red-haired girl. Her emerald eyes and feminine skin were simply mesmerizing. But, he nevertheless decided not to overdo it too much, so he went to the window and spoke first:

“I’m not specifically Lady Mizukage, it’s just your beauty that amazed me,” Shikamaru coughed and peered at the stone city lying in the distance. He wanted to go out onto the balcony and look at him even better, but he did not become overly impudent, because he was already not behaving very politely. Being a simple genin, he not only looked at the Mizukage with lustful eyes, but also behaved with her as an equal. This would definitely not work with the Raikage or anyone else, even Hiruzen would not appreciate it. So it's no surprise that Ao wanted to end it all. But against May's will, he was unable to go. It's hard to understand what was going on in this girl's head ...

Once outside the door, the old Hunter could not understand why she threw him out, because usually she did not do that and always kept him to herself in case of need. Even in war, he was her right hand and always covered in important negotiations.

“Damn, isn't the boy so cute for her? Yeah ... I didn't think that could be a problem. But it doesn’t look like her ... ”- Ao sighed and nevertheless decided to leave, it would not be possible to continue eavesdropping and could end badly. But he still had to stay nearby.

When Ao finally disappeared and no one was left, Mei rose from her seat and turned towards Shikamaru. The guy continued to inspect the Hidden Mist:

- It is noticeably colder here than in my homeland.

- And you like it here? - finally said her word for the first time Mei. Her gentle voice was amazingly caressing for the ear. Shikamaru immediately looked at her, now the girl was not at all embarrassed, she returned a calm expression, turning into a real Mizukage. This reaction looked strange ...

The guy turned to the window and nodded:

- Yes, the air here is more ... It's just different. And calmly ... I did not think that I would visit the new Hidden Mist. I’m afraid if I had been here earlier and had been the same age as now, I would not have been so welcome.

- Oh, do not hesitate, - Mei also went to the window, opening the glass door. Casting a quick glance at Shikamaru, she smiled. “Come on, the view is much better there.

The guy smiled back and both entered the balcony. Leaning on a stone ledge, the guy closed his eyes and breathed deeply:

- Mmm ... Wonderful. I could buy myself a house here and ... have a wife, '' smiling at Mei out of the corner of his eye, Shikamaru noticed a slight blush on the girl's face. But he quickly turned into a sly grin.

- Mr. Shikamaru, you quickly identified my weakness, this is commendable ... I hope you understand that this is not very appropriate, especially in a foreign country, and even surrounded by potential enemies.

- Oh ... - the guy nodded thoughtfully: - I suppose you're right.

Mei smiled, but Shikamaru's next words startled her again.

- Then you will have to break through with a fight.

- Really? - Mei smiled harshly and her ara instantly changed, her hair flew up, and overwhelming power covered the entire balcony, from which even the stones cracked. Shikamaru just grunted in response and moved away from the edge of the balcony, at the same moment his cloak fluttered, the stones under his feet sagged from the weight, and a terrible red aura became a response to the provocation of the Mizukage. The girl held back for a long time so as not to be rude to this impudent brat once again, but she could not even think that he would answer no less strongly!

Immediately, shinobi appeared from all directions, Ao burst into Mei's office, followed by Chuojiro with Hiramekarei ready for battle!

- I told you that he is not clean! Ao growled as Mei and Shikamaru glared at each other. Instead of anger, their faces were filled with cheerful smiles, so Chuojiro simply lowered his sword, and Ao began to realize that something was wrong. The Mizukage did not react to her people in any way, Shikamaru did not see them as equals at all, this strong woman took all his attention! She was hot as hell before, but now ...
