Chapter 16: Reconciliation

After the old man left, although the retreat guard still did not feel at ease to let the young lady be alone with the child, since it was a decision made by the master, as an entourage, he had no choice but to obey. Although the guards no longer knocked on the door and wanted to break in, they still said uneasily, "I know, miss." I'll be waiting for you outside the door, just call me if anything. ”

The little girl finally breathed a sigh of relief and thanked, "Thank you, Dunbei." ”

Naruto sat on the bed, watching the farce that had started early in the morning, and couldn't figure out what was going on in the girl's head. I cried so sadly yesterday, why do I still come to myself now?

After the little girl let go of her hands against the door, she turned to look at Naruto with a question mark on his face, and immediately put her head on the ground after making eye contact with him, leaning against the door, and unconsciously putting her hands behind her back to stir.

The girl's lips parted slightly, as if muttering something, but the voice was so small that Naruto in the distance couldn't hear what she was saying, and couldn't help asking, "What did you say?" ”

As if she had made up her mind, the girl gritted her teeth, bowed 90 degrees to Naruto, and said loudly, "I'm really sorry yesterday, I was too willful, I'm sorry!" ”

"Huh?" Naruto was stunned by the sudden gift, and he couldn't react for a while.

The girl continued to bow 90 degrees and said, "I was wrong yesterday, I said something like that to you, I'm really sorry!" Seeing that Naruto didn't answer, the girl took her little hand out of her pocket, escaped a small clay figure, and reluctantly handed the little clay figure to Naruto, and said in a tone that almost cried, "This is an apology, and please accept him." ”

"Huh?" Naruto looked at the little clay figure handed to him, and quickly refused, "I can't ask for this, take it back quickly." ”

"Woo..."The little girl who almost cried choked up, "This is already my best toy, I don't have anything better anymore, can't this one?" Can't you forgive me? ”

Naruto saw that the girl's tears were about to burst, so he hurriedly stepped forward to hug her and comforted, "Don't cry, don't cry, I didn't mean that." I mean this gift is too expensive for me to accept, and it was me who was bad yesterday, and I should be the one who should apologize. ”

The girl's expression improved slightly, and she asked uncertainly, "If you say that, will you forgive me and continue to play with me?" ”

Naruto touched her head amusefully and replied, "Of course." ”

"If we play together, we'll be friends, right?" Looking at the girl's teardrop-drenched, star-bright eyes, how could Naruto say no words.

After receiving Naruto's affirmative answer, the girl gradually smiled and muttered, "Friend, friend, I have friends, I have friends!" Giggling ...... "The girl broke out of Naruto's arms and happily ran and jumped around the room, releasing the joy in her heart, like an elf that had just been freed from her cage, flying freely in the forest, showing her beauty.

Naruto waved his hand at the girl, motioning for her to come over, and flexed his index finger at the girl who was trotting over, flicking it slightly.

"Ah, it hurts!" The girl clutched her bounced forehead and looked at Naruto in confusion and screamed in pain.

Naruto looked at the girl's pretty face, which was like a fairy of change, and said helplessly, "Calm down." After the girl's enthusiasm had subsided slightly, she said, "Since we are friends, let's exchange names and determine what we call each other." First of all, I'll ......."

"My name is Ying, Earth Spider Ying, please call me Ying, okay?" Naruto, who was going to introduce himself first, was preempted by Ying, who was still in high spirits, and once again made Naruto feel as if he had never taken the initiative with this girl, and had been led by her nose all the time.

Funny drove out this strange thought, and continued, "My name is Naruto, Naruto Uzumaki, just call me Naruto." ”

"Naruto, Naruto." Ying's mouth softly repeated the name.

"Yes."

"Naruto."

"Yes."

"Naruto."

"What's wrong......

"I like Naruto the most!" Before she could finish speaking, Ying pounced on her and let the two of them roll down to the bed together, even with the mattress as a cushion, Naruto who was under Ying only felt a hot pain in her back, but fortunately now that the two of them are not old and have a light weight, Naruto felt the pain subside after a while.

wanted to beat the culprit well, but after seeing the happy expression on the culprit's face, he couldn't do anything, so he had to rub his beautiful hair unwillingly.

"Migoo." A cozy moan like a kitten came from the mouth of the girl in her arms, and it was quite enjoyable to see her expression, and Naruto, who couldn't help but find something else to distract him.

Thinking of the little clay figure that Ying was holding in her hand just now, Naruto asked, "Ying, what about the little clay figure you just held in your hand?" ”

"Ahh This sentence woke up the girl in her arms, and she pulled out her hands holding Naruto. At this time, his hands are empty, and there are no clay figures.

"Oops!" The girl who had just turned from cloudy to sunny had a tendency to turn from sunny to cloudy at this time, and the girl jumped out of bed and searched all over the ground.

"Don't worry, you've been in this room just now, and now that toy must be in the room, you can find it if you look carefully." Naruto comforted, and together they began to search.

The room wasn't big and didn't have much, and the two soon found the lost clay figurine in a corner. The girl hugged the clay figure tightly, with a happy expression, and exclaimed, "Great! ”

Naruto looked at Ying's saved-like expression and asked curiously, "This must be important, right?" ”

Ying nodded vigorously, carefully wiped the clay figurine, and said, "This is my grandfather's birthday gift to me when I was two years old, and it has always been my most cherished toy!" Grandpa said that this clay figure will always be with me and by my side. ”

Naruto looked at the clay figure that had been fallen, there was not even a trace of crack on it, it seemed that it had been reinforced by some method, so Ying's grandfather would confidently say that the clay figure would always accompany Ying.

Ying hugged the clay figure for a while before she was reluctant to let go, handed it to Naruto, and said, "This, for you." ”

After knowing the importance of the clay figure to Ying, Naruto of course couldn't accept it even more, and pushed the clay figure back into Ying's arms, and took Ying's hands to let them hold the clay figure tightly, and said, "I said it, I won't want it." It is an important item given to you by your grandfather, and you should cherish it even more. ”

Ying struggled with her hands to break free, and said at the same time: "I know, so I want to give you my most important thing, because you are my friend." ”

Naruto felt that something in his heart had been slammed hard, and he only felt that the girl in front of him was really cute and pitiful. Naruto let go of his hands, pressed Ying's shoulders, and gently kissed Ying's forehead, saying, "In exchange, I'll take this." ”

Ying touched her forehead in confusion, and although she was reluctant to send the clay figure out, she still asked, "Is this really good?" I'll give you anything. ”

Naruto looked at Ying, smiled, and said, "Enough, I've already received the best gift." ”

The young Ying didn't understand what gift Naruto had received, but looking at Naruto's appearance didn't look like he was lying, she also smiled, grabbed Naruto's hand, and said, "Then let's go out and play together." With that, he dragged Naruto out with him.

"Ah, wait, Ying......"

Although Naruto's recovery power is different from ordinary people, large and small wounds can be recovered almost after sleeping at night and waking up the next day, but this time the injury is really not light, and he didn't sleep at all last night, and the recovery effect is naturally much worse. For Naruto, I'm afraid it won't be too easy today.

I'm really stupid, why didn't I get an honest sleep last night. Naruto thought with regret in his heart.

But compared to yesterday, my physical condition has improved a lot, and the swelling pain between the meridians has basically disappeared, so now I can at least see those beautiful scenery. Ying, who noticed Naruto's change, didn't think about it that much, she only thought that Naruto really regarded herself as a friend and was willing to play with her.

Maybe it's because it's not a daughter.,After all, you can't always wait quietly to enjoy the scenery.,It's more suitable for girls to pick flowers and frolick in the flowers.,As a boy, Naruto is already starting to feel a little bored.。

"Ying, come over here." Naruto, who was following behind, beckoned to Ying, who was running and jumping among the flowers.

Although Ying didn't know what Naruto was calling her about, she still put down the flower in her hand and ran over obediently. Seeing Ying running over, Naruto said to her, "Ying, let's play hide and seek." ”

"Catch and seek?" Ying tilted her head and asked puzzled.

"Don't you know?" Naruto asked, a little incredulous.

Ying shook her head and said, "What's that?" ”

"It's a game."

"Games? How to play? Tell me quickly. ”

"You haven't played with anyone before, have you?"

“…… Usually no one comes here, and when my grandfather and I go back to the village, the other kids don't play with me......"

Looking at Ying's depressed appearance, Naruto couldn't help but think of his previous time in Konoha. The adults of the village are all avoiding themselves like a plague god, and children of the same age are also far away when they see them, or they take pleasure in catching themselves, and if they don't come by themselves, 'Naruto Uzumaki' will continue to live like this until he enters the ninja school, and the first person who agrees with him will start to get better.

Thinking of this, Naruto reached out and touched Ying's head, looking at Ying's expression of enjoyment like a kitten, and said in as soft a tone as possible, "Then I'll tell you the rules of the game, first...... Then ......"

Xiao Ying nodded as she listened, and Naruto's cute appearance made Naruto want to reach out and touch her head again. Anyway, when did you have the bad habit of touching your head, well, whatever.

"That's all for the game, get it?" Naruto raised his voice and said to Ying, "Got it, ready to start." ”

"Yes!" Ying nodded vigorously, her resolute expression as if she was going to do something very remarkable.

"Okay, then the first time you want me to be a ghost, you go and hide, when I count to 100 I'll go to you, don't be caught by me."

"Got it! I'll hide it well! Ying clenched her fists and said vigorously.

"Let's start now, 1... 2… 3..."With that, Naruto began to count.
