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

After leaving Ichiraku Ramen, Naruto's mood was visibly low.

He buried his face in Chi Qing's neck and said nothing.

Naruto didn't want to go back and wanted to stay with this older brother who was so kind to him.

Even though it was their first meeting today, Naruto felt that the older brother was particularly kind, as if they had known each other for a long time.

"Is your stomach still uncomfortable?" Seeing that Naruto was a little depressed, Chi Qing reached out and rubbed his stomach. It was no longer as bloated as before, and it was obvious that the digestive medicine was working.

"No..." Facing his older brother who cares about him, Naruto felt extremely guilty for the lie he just told: "I'm sorry, older brother..."

Naruto's tone was already tearful.

Chi Qing paused, put his hand on Naruto's back and patted him gently: "Why are you apologizing, little Naruto?"

"I just lied..." Naruto's heart was pounding. "I'm not so strong that I can't walk. I just want my big brother to hold me."

Although he was very scared, after telling the truth, Naruto felt relieved a lot of the suppressed emotions. Regardless of whether he could be forgiven or not, he didn't want to lie to such a good older brother.

The child was seriously admitting his mistake, and Chi Qing, who was touched by the cuteness, tried hard to remain calm and not let his emotions show.

"Brother, are you angry..." Naruto looked at Chi Qing cautiously, but he couldn't see his face from this angle.

Little Naruto is so cute.

"Ahem... I'm not angry." Chi Qing turned Naruto around, put his hands under his armpits and lifted him up, so that Naruto was facing her: "Naruto wants me to carry him back. I would be happier if you told me directly."

Naruto's uneasiness and his cautiousness made Chi Qing feel distressed and guilty.

It was because he did something wrong impulsively that he was punished and left Naruto's side for so many years.

He felt guilty for not taking good care of Naruto for Brother Minato and Sister-in-law Kushina.

"This harmless little lie seems to me like Naruto is acting like a spoiled child. I am very happy." After saying that, Chi Qing hugged Naruto against her body and said, "Because uncle likes Naruto the most."

Naruto was half confused, but the only thing he understood was that the older brother said he loved him the most.

This was the first time someone said they loved him and accepted him, and Naruto's eyes became red.

All the grievances I had felt since I began to understand the emotions of the people around me came out at this moment.

Naruto's crying was not as loud as other children's, but rather a soft sobbing sound like a newborn kitten.

Chi Qing originally wanted to go around and buy some clothes that would fit Naruto's size.

But seeing him like this, she changed her mind and quickened her pace back home.

The air quality in the apartment, which has not been occupied for several years, is not very good.

"Sorry, please stand at the door and wait for me." Chi Qing wanted to put Naruto down first, but he didn't let go.

I had no choice but to put a mask on him before opening the door.

A musty smell hit him in the face, and Chi Qing took a few steps towards the window to open it for ventilation.

He pulled back the dust sheet covering the bed and put Naruto on the bed: "Uncle will clean the house first, can you just sit here and wait for a while?"

"Yeah." Naruto nodded obediently.

Because I cried so hard just now, I hiccup from time to time.

Naruto was very happy to find that he was not sent back to the orphanage. He sat on the bed, dangling his little feet, and looked around curiously.

The most important thing is that you can see Chi Qing just by looking up from this position.

Naruto likes it here.
