Naruto: I open a pet shop in the Ninja world.

When Uchiha Fugaku came back, he passed by the kitchen and saw Chi Qing cooking with his wife. His expression was a little complicated.

The picture was too harmonious, so harmonious that it made him feel uncomfortable.

Face to face with the eldest son who came down from upstairs.

"Father."

Uchiha Fugaku suppressed his emotions and nodded with a stern face as a response.

He saw his son's slightly frowned brows, and it was not difficult to guess what Itachi was thinking: "Chi Qing is like a bridge between Uchiha and Konoha, and this matter does not require your intervention, you proceed as planned."

Seeing that Itachi still looked disapproving, Uchiha Fugaku snorted, "Do you think I was the one who dragged Chi Qing in?"

He left only these words and went to the study.

I secretly feel disgusted. Why did Itachi's genius brain stop working when it came to what happened to Chi Qing?

Why did Chi Qing get involved in Uchiha affairs?

If Itachi thought about himself a little, he would know the reason.

His father's words really woke him up.

Itachi looked at the figure from behind in the kitchen, clutching his clothes tightly to his chest.

His heart beat faster and faster, and the affection that surged up in him made Itachi want to hug Chi Qing tightly.

But now that there were other people at home, Itachi held back.

Tonight's dinner at the Uchiha clan leader's house is more sumptuous than usual.

Most of the Uchiha family prefer sweet taste, and Uchiha Fugaku is no exception.

It's just that I rarely show it because of face.

Adults and children alike were very satisfied with the meal.

Because Chi Qing and Uchiha Fugaku still have things to discuss, and it is unknown how long the discussion will take.

Mikoto asked Sasuke to take Naruto to take a shower first, and just stayed there tonight.

This was Naruto's first time staying over at a friend's house, and he was extremely excited.

Before entering the underground meeting room, Chi Qing reminded Naruto: "Uncle Fugaku and I have something to discuss. Mingbao should finish his homework and go to bed early with Sasuke, understand?"

"Yes! I will be a good uncle." Naruto nodded vigorously.

But considering how excited he is now, going to bed early is probably impossible.

Only Chi Qing and Uchiha Fugaku were present at today's meeting; Itachi was excluded.

Chi Qing leaned over to Itachi's ear and whispered something, and Itachi nodded with his ears slightly red.

Uchiha Fugaku saw this and looked at his eldest son with disappointment.

The old father was heartbroken that the son he raised had gone to someone else.

……

Chi Qing looked at the conference room, which was decorated slightly differently from the last time he came, and went straight to the point without any preparation: "What does the clan leader want to tell me?"

Uchiha Fugaku: "..." He was directed to the point before he could even organize his words.

After looking at the boy in front of him for a few seconds and seeing that he looked well-behaved, Uchiha Fugaku gave up beating around the bush and said, "I accept your proposal last time, but are you sure that things will develop as you expected?"

"No." Chi Qing shook his head: "But it is undeniable that Konoha's public security has been very good under the management of the Uchiha for so many years."

"Perhaps after a long time, everyone will get used to it and forget about it." Chi Qing smiled gently: "The cake that Uchiha "gave up" is enough for every family to have a piece, but can they really eat it?"

"Take advantage of this time, the clan leader can also sort out the affairs of the clan."

Chi Qing was not going to get involved in Uchiha's internal affairs. All he wanted to do was to dissipate the struggle between Uchiha and Konoha, nothing more.

Since Konoha has always been wary of Uchiha's power, how should Konoha respond if Uchiha takes the initiative to "take a step back"?

If they retreat like this and still cling on, what will the other families of Konoha think?

Who knows if they are the "next" Uchiha.

If it really comes to this, the struggle between Konoha and the aristocratic families is only a matter of time. After all, anyone could be the next Uchiha.
