Chapter 14: Anko Dazzled

[ Walking alongside Nagao Wanji, Lixiang looked at the bored person and couldn't help bursting into laughter. She covered her mouth and said, "Hello, I am the employee of the Konoha Shinobi furniture store - Rika Akana. The boss sent me to pick you up."

"Hello, Miss Akana!" Wanji snapped out of it, his face shining with embarrassment. He then touched his head and said sheepishly, "I am Nagao Wanji from the Land of Rice. Please advise me in the future."

"Oh! Wanzhi, Wanzhi... I'll call you Maruko-kun from now on, okay?" Li Xiang winked at him and said closer, with a soft and playful touch ]

"Ah~" When Anko saw the nickname "Maruko", she couldn't help but be stunned. The plot is developing too fast, has it reached the point of calling each other by nicknames?

The simple and honest country boy, looking at Lixiang's suddenly approaching face, couldn't help nodding, his innocent face was really pleasant.

After registering the procedures to enter the village, Akana Rika took Nagao Wanji to bid farewell to Guishu and the two entered the village together. At the right moment, the last ray of twilight disappeared on the horizon and the lights came on.

Nagao followed behind Rika with dull eyes, holding the bundle tightly with his right hand, a little nervous. As if aware of this, Lixiang gradually slowed down and walked in line with him, very intimately explaining the customs, shops, and delights of Konoha Village.

Anko tilted her head, adjusted a comfortable posture, and continued watching. She reached out and pushed aside the bangs that blocked her view, revealing her forehead.

Although she is not a woman with Lixiang's character, every movement of the protagonist really makes people feel very comfortable.

The country boy, Nagao Wanji, is exactly one head taller than Lixiang, and the two walk side by side, feeling like a silky couple. From the night of this day, the Konoha Village ninja tool store had an additional worker named Nagao Wanji.

Nagao Wanji, who came to Konoha Village from the Land of Rice to work, although unfamiliar with the place, met his kind, warm and affectionate colleague Akana Rika, and she often took care of him. Lixiang's cheerful and lively personality dispelled his anxiety.

Days have passed for a long time, a kind of love silently takes root and sprouts in the heart of Akina Lixiang. When she found out, she could barely control the beating of her heart.

Although she is a gentle girl, Lixiang is very open about her emotions. In her daily work, she began to reveal her feelings for "Maruko" from time to time.

Although Wanji also has a good impression of Lixiang, he always misses Satomi, the girl he was in love with in the village.

Dazed for a moment, Anko reacted very strongly and shouted, "What the hell? Does Maruko really have someone he likes? Shouldn't it be Miss Lixiang?"

Anko abruptly stood up, went from lying down to sitting, even too much, and almost fell off the maple tree by accident, but fortunately, immediately realized her situation and stabilized herself. However, the maple leaf fell even worse after being bothered like this.

Gritting her teeth with bitterness, she continued reading.

[One autumn night, Nagao Wanji, who left work early, appeared at the door of a restaurant on the commercial street, gritted his teeth and entered. Three days ago, he received an invitation from the Association of his village. After thinking about it, he had not met his old friends in Konoha Village before, so he decided to attend.

He entered the restaurant, reported the room number, the waiter took him to the place, then bowed and left. After knocking on the door, he nervously said, "I am Nagao Wanji, can I come in?"

"Come in!" A low female voice sounded.

Nagao Wanji was stunned for a moment and exclaimed incredulously, "Satomi!"

"Wanji," Satomi smiled, then turned the side of her body, winked at the person and said, "What are you still dazed for? Come in quickly!"]

Seeing this, Anko couldn't help but snort coldly, thinking in her heart: This Satomi must be the vicious supporting female role! What kind of eyes does Maruko have? To actually fall in love with such a girl, Miss Lixiang should be the true love!

[ At the moment he entered the inner room, several familiar voices sounded one after another, and Wanji responded one by one. When he saw Akana Lixiang, he was still surprised, knelt on an empty seat and asked, "Lixiang, why are you here?"

Kenichi Mikami served him something to drink and quickly replied, "Lixiang is a friend that Satomi knew, and she came here with her. Here, Wanji, drink!"

The three used to be best friends when they were studying. After five years, they were able to meet Satomi and Kenichi at the reunion in Konoha Village, which made him very excited...

Not long after the party started, Akana Rika found out that Wanji liked Satomi. Those intentional or unintentional gazes seemed to be his actions. A woman's mind is always delicate and sensitive, with a slight pain in her heart.

Satomi, who had been chatting with Kenichi, noticed Lixiang and a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth. Satomi, who is also a woman, has long understood Lixiang's little thoughts. After thinking about it, she said to Wanji, "Wanji, I haven't seen you in 5 years. I don't know if you have someone you like?"

"Ah!" Wanji, who was mentioned by Satomi, immediately straightened up, the word "lover" made his face blush and he stammered, "Satomi... I still don't have someone that I like, you..."

"Ah, what a coincidence!" Satomi smiled happily, then grabbed Akana Lixiang's hand, shook it in front of her eyes and said, "Miss Lixiang, you're also single! Do you want to...?"

"No need!" Nagao Wanji shouted with a super reactive voice. The voice was so loud that people outside seemed to be able to hear it. Everyone's eyes were fixed on him, and he became disheartened again, and said in a low voice, "I... well... "

Wanji completely rejected the idea of associating with Lixiang ]

The text is written up to here, and it stops abruptly. Just as Anko flipped to the second page, she saw that the pen and ink stayed on the word "fragrance," and couldn't help but go crazy!
