Chapter 186 Naruto 5
Chapter 186 Naruto 5
There were a few children playing in the park. Naruto was a little reserved and clung to Su Yuanyuan's leg, refusing to go over.
Su Yuanyuan could only hold his hand and walk over together, standing under the slide watching the children.
"Can you guys bring Naruto along? He's a little shy."
"Of course, come on up, let's play on the slide together."
The boy with the pigtails answered her, pointing behind him with one finger, indicating that Naruto could go up from there.
Su Yuanyuan looked down at Naruto, encouraging him with her eyes. Naruto also wanted a friend, so he hesitated for a moment and carefully let go of Su Yuanyuan.
Seeing Su Yuanyuan smiling and encouraging him, he gave a shy smile, ran over, and climbed onto the slide.
Su Yuanyuan took a few steps back, letting the children play by themselves. She found a place to sit down, her eyes never leaving them.
The children played until dusk, and Naruto happily ran up to Su Yuanyuan to introduce her to his new friend.
"Sister, these are Shikamaru, Choji, and Kiba. We're friends now."
Seeing his bright smile, Su Yuanyuan smiled and patted his head, then nodded kindly to the other children.
"Thank you for bringing Naruto along. You're welcome to come to our house sometime; we'll be staying there."
Su Yuanyuan pointed out her and Naruto's house to them; after all, it was a villa, which was quite conspicuous in Konoha.
She followed behind the group, listening to their chatter about whatever they were talking about. After seeing them all home, she and Naruto headed back together.
"Is Naruto happy today?"
"happy!"
"Then you can bring more friends over to your house."
"I know, sister!"
Naruto's voice was very loud, and Su Yuanyuan gently tapped him on the head, "Keep your voice down."
Perhaps he was too tired from playing in the afternoon, because Naruto started to doze off while eating. His little head was nodding off, and Su Yuanyuan was really afraid that he would fall into his bowl.
After finally finishing a bowl of food, she quickly told Naruto to go to sleep. As soon as he lay down on the bed, he started snoring softly. Su Yuanyuan shook her head helplessly.
Naruto finally made some friends and stopped staying in the shop every day. Su Yuanyuan always encouraged him to go out and play more, hoping that Naruto could make even more friends.
After posting the job ad for four or five days, they finally found a young woman named Kazetani Mai. She was very quick and efficient, and Su Yuanyuan was very satisfied with her and signed an agreement with her.
Since Mai came to the store, Su Yuanyuan has finally become less busy, but the opening hours have not been changed back. Su Yuanyuan feels that things are fine as they are now.
"elder sister!"
Naruto rushed in from outside like the wind, grabbed her clothes and swayed her back and forth, looking at her with sparkling eyes.
"Sister, can I bring my friends over to my house tomorrow?"
"Of course! When? I'll prepare something delicious for you."
She was happy to grant this small request. She could close the shop earlier tomorrow, as it was Naruto's friend's first time visiting and she needed to prepare more.
"Shikamaru said he could come out tomorrow afternoon, so they all came in the afternoon."
"Okay, I got it. Go have fun!"
Watching Naruto skip and hop away, Su Yuanyuan continued what she was doing, thinking about what she should make to entertain the children tomorrow.
The next morning, Su Yuanyuan prepared the ingredients so that she could cook them directly when she returned at noon, which would save a lot of time.
She made snowflake crisps, egg tarts, and fried chicken fries, and also prepared strawberry milk jelly. The drinks were bought directly. Su Yuanyuan also prepared a lot of potato chips and cookies in case they didn't like them.
Before they arrived in the afternoon, Su Yuanyuan put everything on the table, told Naruto, and left. With adults around, they couldn't play freely.
It's a good opportunity for her to go out and have some fun by herself. It's been a long time since she's done so. Naruto's birthday is coming up soon, and she needs to prepare a gift in advance.
Once Su Yuanyuan started shopping, she couldn't stop. By the time she came to her senses, her hands were already full of bags. She silently repented in her heart and happily carried her things home.
"Sister, you are back!"
"Are they gone?"
Su Yuanyuan put the things down and patted Naruto's head. The room had been cleaned up, and she couldn't help but nod silently in her heart. She liked this kind of child and hoped to come more often.
"Hmm! I left a long time ago. What did you buy, sister?"
Naruto looked curiously at the bags scattered on the ground, picked one up, opened it and saw that it was full of little trinkets he had never seen before. He immediately took one out excitedly.
"Sister, is this for me?"
"Of course, these are all yours, and you can decide who they belong to."
Su Yuanyuan blinked and gave Naruto a hint. He nodded with a grin and ran to his room with the bag.
Su Yuanyuan breathed a sigh of relief when he returned to his room. Naruto almost discovered the gift she had prepared, but luckily she had also bought some toys.
After hiding the gift, Su Yuanyuan started preparing dinner. She made something simple, figuring Naruto wouldn't be able to eat much.
"Sister, so many people came today, and they all praised how delicious your cooking is."
As Naruto washed the vegetables, he told her about what happened that afternoon. Seeing his undisguised smile, Su Yuanyuan also smiled and quietly became a good listener, occasionally chiming in with a few words, which made him even more eager to talk.
Looking at the cheerful and lively Naruto now, all traces of the timidity he showed during their first meeting were gone. Su Yuanyuan gave herself a mental thumbs up.
It had been a long time since anyone had come to monitor them, and Su Yuanyuan hadn't seen Kakashi since; he was probably out on a mission again.
Although it seems peaceful now, no one knows how long this tranquility can last. Judging from the occasional ninja running across the rooftops, the war outside Konoha has not yet ended.
Su Yuanyuan looked at Naruto. He would definitely go to the Ninja Academy in the future and become a ninja after graduation. Su Yuanyuan only hoped that this peace could last a little longer.
She doesn't know when it started, but every time Su Yuanyuan came home, she would receive flowers from different people, which she always refused with various excuses.
Finally, unable to bear it any longer, he declared that if he wanted to be with her, he would have to raise Naruto together with her. The people who sent the flowers vanished instantly.
"Sister, you've gone too far. How can you use me as an excuse?"
Su Yuanyuan glanced at him sideways, "How do you know it's just an excuse? That's exactly what I think."
Naruto blushed and chuckled sheepishly as he sat down next to Su Yuanyuan. "Sister, don't you have someone you like?"
"Does a little one even know what liking is?"
Su Yuanyuan pressed one finger against Naruto's forehead and slowly pushed him away, her eyes scanning him up and down.
"Sister, I'm ten years old, of course I know what liking is."
Naruto pouted and complained softly. Su Yuanyuan raised an eyebrow at him and asked, "Then tell me, what is 'like'?"
He tilted his head back with a determined look, "I like my older sister the most, and my older sister likes me the most too."
