Chapter 17 Nonou
Ningxia is undoubtedly a handsome man, with a refined and elegant appearance, like a piece of fine jade, and a demeanor like a graceful gentleman, poised and generous.
Countless wealthy women have tried to bribe Ningxia with money, but Tsunade has rejected most of them.
That's right. This deadbeat woman not only owed Ningxia 30 million taels of silver, but she also interfered with his marriage more than once. If it weren't for their past relationship, Ningxia would have demanded it no matter what...
Well, he really didn't know what to do against Tsunade, who possessed superhuman strength. Every time he was captured by Tsunade, she would come up to him and say that they were not good enough for him.
Then, Orochimaru took him to work.
"What's wrong with you?"
Seeing her dazed, Ningxia assumed she was frightened and called out to her softly again.
"Huh? I...I...I'm fine...Thank you, big brother."
After belatedly realizing what was happening, her childish face was flushed red, like a cute little tomato.
"It's good that you're alright. My name is Ningxia, and the person who just helped you is Namikaze Naruko."
Ningxia explained softly that now that Mingzi's identity has been revealed, she has naturally changed back to her father's surname, although she doesn't care.
"Thank you... I... my name is Hinata Hyuga, it's nice to meet you! Big brother, and... Naruto..."
Hinata's voice was soft and sweet, which was very endearing. Ningxia took out a few cherry tomatoes that she had prepared for Zuo Yue from the bag and handed them to Hinata.
At this moment, a ninja appeared. Or rather, he had been there all along, but was just deliberately not showing himself.
"Young Miss, you should go back now."
The ninja knew Ningxia's identity and dared not act too forcefully.
"Um... Big brother, Naruko, goodbye."
Hinata held the cherry tomato Ningxia had given her as she said goodbye to the two of them. Seeing this, Yugao silently noted that Ningxia had met a new little girl.
The little girl from the flower shop, Ino Yamanaka; the little girl from the ninja tool shop, Tenten; Satsuki who often comes over; Naruto from the house; and Shiro.
Although there was nothing wrong with Ningxia, the fact that so many lolis were actively approaching her could only mean that Ningxia was very popular with lolis.
After this little incident, Ningxia took the women home for a lively sukiyaki meal, though Ningxia didn't eat much.
After the women had eaten and drunk their fill, Yugao suddenly fell asleep, while Naruko began to tinker with the Flying Thunder God Technique. She had already learned the Rasengan, but was still learning the Flying Thunder God Technique.
Undoubtedly, without the Nine-Tails' restrictions and with Minato's experience and guidance, Naruto's growth rate is terrifying.
Afterwards, Ningxia went to Zhishui's room and had sukiyaki with her.
The snake charm allows her to remain undetected, but it also prevents her from communicating with others. Apart from Ningxia, only Bai and Mingzi know of her existence.
However, to Ningxia's surprise, Zhishui maintained a good attitude and did not become paranoid because of loneliness.
Watching her happily eat sukiyaki, Ningxia could only sigh that fools sometimes have good fortune.
The next day, Ningxia carried her medicine box, along with Bai, Xiyan, and Zhishui, whom no one could see, and went out.
Naruko is protected by the Anbu at home, so he doesn't need to worry too much.
The ANBU member responsible for protecting Naruko has white hair and doesn't look quite normal.
Ningxia has a habit of regularly visiting orphanages in the country where he lives to provide free medical treatment and donations. He once wanted to see if he could make some progress in his studies by doing so.
Later it became a habit. War is cruel, and children are always the biggest victims. He believed he could not change the world, but he would still do what he could.
The orphanage director was a beautiful woman in nun's robes, wearing square-framed glasses, and with long, brown-yellow hair.
Upon seeing Ningxia arrive, she was both pleasantly surprised and somewhat at a loss, and could only do her best to entertain Ningxia.
However, the orphanage's conditions were extremely poor, which only made it seem more dire.
"No need for formalities. I'm here to help them with their medical needs, not to enjoy myself."
Ningxia interrupted the woman's hospitality, knowing how difficult it was for orphanages in the ninja world.
That's why he has the utmost respect for those who can persevere.
"Th-thank you...you can call me Nono, please come with me."
Nonoyu remained polite and cautious towards Ningxia, terrified that Ningxia would leave.
Danzo promised to compensate Naruto last time, which greatly weakened Root. Since there was a loss, it needs to be made up for in other ways.
Danzo cut off funding to institutions like orphanages without hesitation, as the disadvantages outweighed the advantages.
These days, Nono is running around, desperately trying to earn money with her healing ninjutsu so that she can barely maintain the children's basic living needs. Sometimes she even doubts whether she can keep going.
But... when she saw the children's smiles, she couldn't help but cheer up.
Even in the deepest, darkest roots, she still wanted to protect these new, fragile branches and leaves.
Ningxia's efficiency is very fast; they can accurately diagnose the cause of the child's illness every time and provide the necessary medicine.
Seeing the densely packed words, Nono felt even more embarrassed, but Ningxia said he would pay for the medicine, and secondly...
"They need food; malnutrition is the cause of the disease."
"Feel sorry……"
Nono lowered her head. She knew about this all too well, but... with Danzo cutting off her funding, what could a ninja with a background as a spy do?
Even if we go on a mission, what will happen to the children? Who will take care of them?
"You've done a great job."
Ningxia's tone softened. He could tell that the children in the orphanage really liked Nono, and that their desire for the children hadn't been diminished by their hardships.
He wasn't some saint, but he was kind-hearted. Besides, if the money he spent on the orphanage were to be used for something, and the storyline of some important character was ever changed, he would benefit from it too.
Ningxia comforted himself in this way. Although he had long since given up on the idea that any orphanage could produce a true dragon, he was not short of money and was happy to help others.
"Thank you, thank you so much, no matter what."
This spy ninja, known as the Walking Shrine Maiden and possessing a legendary life, looked as tired as a little woman today.
She took off her glasses and wiped them, her beautiful eyes still filled with worry.
"Is something bothering you?"
Ningxia didn't know Nonoyu, but felt that the other person was full of stories.
"I... I have a child still living away from home, I really don't know how he's doing, Mingming, that child..."
As Nono spoke, she began to choke up. She was not a qualified director and could not take good care of all the children in the orphanage.
"Phew... Sorry."
Ningxia gently patted Nono's shoulder, and the two chatted back and forth, discovering that they were surprisingly compatible.
The conversation gradually shifted from sad topics to laughter brought by jokes and banter.
However, Xiyan, Shisui, and even Bai were somewhat...
