"Good morning, Lady Hinata!"
On the film set, Uchiha Yoichi greeted Hyuga Hinata, suddenly noticing the mature allure exuding from this housewife; perhaps it was the makeup that brought out her decadent charm.
"Good morning, Mr. Yoichi."
Upon seeing Uchiha Yoichi, Hyuga Hinata's face slightly flushed. She recalled that day's events and cautiously glanced around to ensure no one was watching before whispering to Uchiha Yoichi,
"Mr. Yoichi, I'm really sorry, but if anything like last time is in the script, it absolutely can't happen; I'm married, and even though it's just acting, I can't betray my husband!"
Hearing this, Uchiha Yoichi gave Hyuga Hinata a peculiar look before saying, "Lady Hinata, didn't you... read the script?"
"Eh? I've been quite busy recently and haven't had a chance. I planned to take a look soon..."
Feeling a bit embarrassed for being so dismissive, Hyuga Hinata lowered her voice to ask, "Mr. Yoichi, what's in the script?"
"The second part is a continuation, with quite a bit of intimate scenes, and there's a shower scene with kissing later... Lady Hinata, if you're uncomfortable, you should tell Director Wada now. Otherwise, if you're unprepared, it's too late once we're set to film."
Upon hearing Uchiha Yoichi's words, Hyuga Hinata stared blankly for a moment before hurriedly pulling out the script to read.
Seeing the plot laid out, Hyuga Hinata immediately panicked, saying, "W-What to do? Mr. Yoichi, I can't do those kinds of scenes again...."
"That's just the first scene; there are quite a few more... Lady Hinata, do you plan to use a stand-in the whole time? That might not work well either. At this point, you could only withdraw."
Pretending to give Hyuga Hinata advice, Uchiha Yoichi was actually pressuring her, continuing to persuade, "However, if Lady Hinata quits now, the whole cast might fall apart... This decision is yours alone, Lady Hinata. I can't advise you here."
Caught between fidelity to her marriage and the importance of the entire cast's continuity, Hyuga Hinata was mired in anxiety, her pale eyes filled with confusion.
"Alright, we're starting. As usual, everyone else out,"
Director Wada instructed. Influenced by Uchiha Yoichi's spiritual power, everyone remaining would also be under his sway since he didn't want idle people around while getting intimate with Lady Hinata.
Once filming ended, they'd only remember that scene was shot, not recalling any details, excusing it later as cut due to poor editing.
After Director Wada's order, the film set quickly cleared, leaving only Uchiha Yoichi, Hyuga Hinata, Director Wada, and the cameraman.
"Alright, let's get ready, Lady Hinata, Mr. Yoichi."
"...Yes, Director Wada!"
Hyuga Hinata's face was flushed with red, yet after a dozen silent seconds, she agreed, much to Uchiha Yoichi's relief, who thought she was going to refuse.
Once Hyuga Hinata memorized her lines, they moved to the bathroom.
After changing into a thin gauzy robe, Hyuga Hinata steeled herself and then drenched herself using the showerhead.
Her lithe body stood out under the wet robe, almost translucent, with hints of her black bra visible, her ripe, full bosom standing firm in front of Uchiha Yoichi; in casual wear, it wasn't evident, but with the robe clinging to her, her alluring curves were clear.
With her body soaked, Hyuga Hinata, blushing deeply and holding her chest, approached Uchiha Yoichi; her ivory feet delicately gracing the tiles, as if they were a piece of art.
"Alright, action!"
Upon hearing Director Wada, Uchiha Yoichi began his line, "My lady, I can't do without you...."
"But we shouldn't..."
Hyuga Hinata spoke in alarm, as Uchiha Yoichi stepped forward to embrace and then silence her with a kiss.
Her lips, tender as a budding flower, were no different from last time; Uchiha Yoichi effortlessly pried open her lips and teeth, feeling Hyuga Hinata tense entirely in his arms.
"We can't..."
"Don't mind others' opinions. I like you, my lady!"
Hyuga Hinata used her soft white hands to resist and struggle, but Uchiha Yoichi held her tightly with greater force, feeling her abundant chest pressing against him.
Flattening against him.
"Mm..."
The shy aroma retreated within her small mouth, yet Uchiha Yoichi soon caught it and savored the taste.
Meanwhile, his other hand trailed down Hyuga Hinata's back to rest on her taut posterior, kneading it like dough.
This movement only heightened her tension and embarrassed her, forgetting the act but not the resistance, her whole body drawn tight.
"Hmm..."

"Very good, very good! I seem to see another great drama rising. Ms. Hinata, you've worked hard today; go inside and change your clothes."
Director Wada clapped and praised Hyuga Hinata, but there was some emptiness in his eyes.
"...Then, I'll go change now, Director."
Right now, Hyuga Hinata felt a surge of shyness; if she weren't married, she might faint directly. However, she felt her face was so red that she didn't dare to meet anyone, and she spoke with her head lowered.
After finishing, Hyuga Hinata left without even greeting Uchiha Yoichi and went to another room to change clothes.
As soon as Hyuga Hinata left, Uchiha Yoichi spoke up: "Give me what was filmed today."
"Yes..."
The cameraman, upon hearing, looked dazed, then directly took out the film and handed it to Uchiha Yoichi.
Today's footage was quite exquisite—Lady Hinata, soaked, sharing a passionate kiss with Uchiha Yoichi in the bathroom, revealing many fair places under Yoichi's hands.
"I didn't expect it to go so smoothly. We can take it further next; however, it's very likely Hyuga Hinata will seek help from Hyuga Hanabi, just like last time... Regardless, anyone who comes is in for a meal!"
Uchiha Yoichi thought to himself, noting that Hyuga Hanabi seemed easier than her sister, especially since she wasn't married yet.
Then Director Wada and the cameraman regained their consciousness, and under Uchiha Yoichi's subtle spiritual setup, they held onto fabricated memories for ten minutes, completely believing them.
Once Hyuga Hinata came back after changing, the crew members also came in, and Director Wada announced that this segment was a one-take, and they were shooting the next one.
However, the next scene was just normal plot; Uchiha Yoichi knew he shouldn't push things continuously and needed to give Hyuga Hinata time to adapt, so he let a clone substitute him for these regular shootings.

"The traces left by the Shell Organization have basically been cleaned up, but according to the collected information, the Shell Organization seems to be getting outer array members to collect all technologies in the Ninja World. We've placed all famous scientists under surveillance, just waiting for the Shell Organization to contact them."
In the Hokage Office, Sai, who had just returned to the village, reported to Uzumaki Naruto: "But the effect might be trivial; based on the memories acquired from Victor, the Shell Organization has already taken the technological achievements, including those from Konoha's research..."
"Even Konoha has been infiltrated... What worries me more is the Ten-tailed; I don't know when Jigen will try to revive the Ten-tailed and become an Otsutsuki..."
Uzumaki Naruto said with a headache, even though Sasuke was out gathering intelligence, the Shell Organization noticed and concealed themselves well, leaving no information.
"What about the other person, Sai?"
Sai shook his head: "There's no news at all; even Victor doesn't know where that guy emerged from. There are no traces of Space-Time Ninjutsu, and no clues across the Land of Fire..."
Then, Sai paused and mentioned a method he thought of a few days ago: "Naruto, there's a Forbidden Technique in the Sealing Scroll, which appeared during the Fourth Great Ninja War..."
"Reanimation Jutsu, I see what you mean."
Uzumaki Naruto placed his hands on the table, his expression very calm: "Although directly asking Uchiha Obito would be the best option, Sai, the Reanimation Jutsu requires the deceased's remains, and Obito died in Otsutsuki Kaguya's dimension back then..."
If it were simply for asking the deceased questions without enslaving them, Uzumaki Naruto could accept it, mostly using death-row inmates as sacrifices... But reanimating Uchiha Obito wouldn't be possible.
Upon hearing this, Sai opened his mouth and said: "Is that so? Then I'll go investigate elsewhere again. The day after tomorrow is the information exchange among the Five Great Ninja Villages; hopefully, the other four will have some findings..."
"You just got back; don't rush out again, Sai."
Uzumaki Naruto advised: "Take action after the information exchange between the Five Great Ninja Villages. Rest up for a day today and spend some time with Ino and Well Array." He didn't want these friends ending up like Sasuke, busy and never home. As the Hokage, he could do a bit more.
Sai smiled upon hearing this and said: "I understand, I'll set off the day after tomorrow then."
After bidding farewell to Uzumaki Naruto, Sai hurried home.
Passing by the Barrier Team, Sai had initially wanted to see Ino but didn't know what to say upon seeing her, so he paused then continued home.
However, when Sai got home, he suddenly found Yamanaka Ino busy at the front flower shop and went up to greet: "Ino, didn't you go to the Barrier Team today?"
"You're back, huh? The barrier has been re-setup; I don't need to always be at the Barrier Team. Even at home, I can sense if any outsiders invade...."
Seeing Sai, Yamanaka Ino felt a bit of joy deep down, but it wasn't the joy of reunion; it was her anticipation to talk about the divorce and end this relationship.
"There's something I want to say to you, so come in, Sai."
"Eh? Oh, alright, I'll be right in."
Sai was momentarily stunned but followed behind Yamanaka Ino. After arriving at the dining room, he sat down with Ino but sat opposite her.
"What's up, Ino?"
"...Sai, let's get a divorce!"
After a minute or two of silence, Yamanaka Ino finally said it.
