"Dear, I'm back ~"
Ya Chui had just entered the door of his house. He hadn't even taken off his shoes when he shouted loudly inside.
Nangong Zhe also reluctantly put the big and small bags on his body on the ground and said softly,
"Sorry to disturb …"
After taking the slippers handed to him by Ya Chui, Nangong Zhe also took off his shoes.
At this moment, Xiao Ying walked down the stairs in pink pajamas with lotus flowers, looking like she had not woken up yet. She rubbed her eyes and looked at her mother with sleepy eyes,
"Mom, you're back … What are we eating tonight?"
"It's stew ~" Ya Chui said to Sakura, then she moved her body slightly and said to Sakura, "There is a guest today. Your Uncle Nangong is eating with us because there is no one at home."
"Oh … Ah!!!!"
At first, Sakura was still responding to her mother, but when her sleepiness gradually faded, Sakura finally saw Nangong Zhe who was standing behind Ya Chui. She immediately screamed and ran upstairs to her room.
Nangong Zhe was about to say hello to Sakura, but Sakura had already run away. This made Nangong Zhe awkwardly withdraw his hand that was already stretched out halfway.
"This girl … Little Zhe is not an outsider. Isn't it just wearing pajamas? It's nothing …"
Ya Chui said with some blame, but then she still brought Nangong Zhe to her house and let Nangong Zhe temporarily sit in the living room for a while. Originally, Nangong Zhe still hoped that he could be Ya Chui's assistant. After all, he actually knew how to cook. However, he was driven out by Ya Chui's attitude of "This is my battlefield. If you dare to come, I will fight with you".
With no choice, Nangong Zhe could only sit in the living room of Ya Chui's house obediently. Although he had been here a few times, many places had changed. There were a lot of things like group photos. Nangong Zhe had nothing to do, so he casually looked at the photos hanging on the wall.
Among these photos, most of them were photos of Sakura. There was a photo of Sakura's first training with him. Because he was too fierce, she had tears in her eyes. There was also a photo of Sakura after she entered the ninja school and got the age medal. Of course, she joined Team 7 led by Kakashi. Photos with Naruto, Sasuke, and Kakashi were also included.
Nangong Zhe was looking at the photos enthusiastically. Sakura had already tidied up and walked out of her room. Just as she walked to the stairs, she saw Nangong Zhe looking at some of her photos. Things like her photos, it was naturally nothing to look at, but once others saw them, an indescribable sense of shame emerged from her heart.
With Nangong Zhe's strength, he naturally noticed that someone came down from upstairs, so Nangong Zhe also looked back at Sakura who was coming down. She slowly walked to Xiao Ying's side and placed her hand on Xiao Ying's head, caressing it slowly, just like how Xiao Ying acted when she first arrived at her house.
"Unknowingly, Sakura has also grown up so much? The little brat who used to cry at every turn has now become a strong and beautiful girl … "
To be honest, Nangong Zhe almost watched Sakura grow up. From a young age, Sakura was very close to him, and he also treated Sakura as his own family. When he looked at Sakura seriously, he found that time really passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, the little girl had now become a slim and graceful girl.
Not to mention Little Linger, Mashiro, and Nangong Rou who were older than Sakura. Nangong Zhe reflected on himself. Have I always regarded them too much as children? Sakura's performance in the Wave Country's mission was not so outstanding, but she also performed well as a ninja. Although her strength still needs to be improved, she can be considered to be able to protect herself.
And Little Linger has fought several times more than Sakura, and he has never relaxed his teaching of Little Linger. Now, Little Linger's strength has reached the level of an Elite Chunin. Nangong Rou herself graduated from the Ninja Academy, and her mastery and application of Chakra is very delicate. In addition, she has transcended the boundary and synchronized her internal force with Chakra. Such strength is actually infinitely close to the top level of Jonin. On the other hand, Mashiro, although he came from the root, has never practiced, and he is not so interested in practicing, but he has his own introduction to some management and operation. Now in the Blood Cloth Pavilion, it is Mashiro who has replaced him to command the overall situation.
These three girls, he still treats them as children who have not grown up, so he carefully protects them. At this moment, Nangong Zhe suddenly began to reflect on himself. Is his desire to protect too much? Although it is gratifying to be protected, excessive protection will become a heavy shackle on a person's body. Nangong Zhe also understands this in his heart, but it is easy to know and difficult to do. Now, Nangong Zhe has made such a mistake.
On the other hand, when Sakura heard Nangong Zhe's praise, she felt a little at a loss for a while. She blushed and ran directly to the kitchen to prepare dinner with her mother.
"Yabuki, brother-in-law Haruno hasn't come back yet?"
Nangong Zhe saw that Sakura's father, Haruno Hajime, didn't seem to be at home, so he asked curiously.
"This guy … I told him to go home early. Today, our daughter finally came back, so the whole family should have dinner together. I don't know where he went, but Zhe, you don't have to worry, your brother-in-law is now on a long vacation, so he won't take on any tasks. Even if there is an urgent task, it won't be the turn of a Chunin like your brother-in-law. He should be delayed by something, so he will be back soon, right? "
Yabuki said to Nangong Zhe, but there was a sense of comfort in her words. A profession like ninja, although it looks glorious, is very dangerous. The slightest mistake can lead to death. As the wife of a ninja, and even her daughter is a ninja, Yabuki must have a heavy burden in her heart, right?
On the contrary, Sakura did not think as deeply as Yabuki and Nangong Zhe. When she heard her mother's words, she turned her head and continued to busy herself with the things at hand.
