Chapter 307 Shikamaru's Operation (2)
As dusk approached, the large group finally arrived at the gate of the village. Shikamaru made arrangements, "Chouji, remember to send Naruto to the Konoha Hospital, and then everyone can go their separate ways."
The rest of the people didn't have any objections, so they just walked towards their own homes.
Xiao Li nodded seriously, looked at Shikamaru with a slightly strange expression, and then began his own 500-lap plan.
Neji and Hinata walked towards the Hyuga family together, but Neji walked a little slower than usual.
Ino looked at Shikamaru meaningfully, and because she was afraid of waking up Sakura, she lowered her voice a lot, "Then... what about Sakura?"
Facing Ino's teasing, Shikamaru said calmly, "I'll take her back on the way."
Seeing Shikamaru like this, Ino couldn't stop laughing, but because Sakura had fallen asleep, she had to cover her mouth to hold back her laughter, "Tsk tsk... So you're on your way? And I don't know who said it before, women are so troublesome?"
"That's different." Shikamaru didn't intend to argue with Ino. If he woke Sakura up, it would be more trouble than gain.
The sunset at this time was like a red fallen leaf, scattered on the loess-covered ground. The distant hills under the setting sun turned dark purple, like reefs in the sea of clouds.
Shikamaru walked on the familiar road, and as he watched the silhouettes of himself and Sakura getting longer and longer, his gaze gradually became hot, and he could not help but stare at the shadows on the ground, a hint of smile overflowing from his eyes, emitting a tenderness and tenderness that he himself did not even notice.
When arriving at the house without lights, Shikamaru suddenly felt strange, but then he felt a little embarrassed. Although this had happened once before, the situation was still different. Hmm...
So Shikamaru stood at the door blankly for a long time, and finally pushed the door open and came to Sakura's room as if he was familiar with the place.
The room was still as clean as ever. There was a pink bed in the corner, and next to the bed was a window with a thin gauze curtain. The evening breeze gently lifted the curtain, revealing a hint of hazy light.
There was a pot of blooming gardenia on the desk, and the other side was piled with books. In the middle of the desk there was a half-opened book filled with beautiful handwriting, which was obviously written by Sakura.
Shikamaru changed Sakura's posture on his back into a princess hug. He hadn't noticed it before, but now he could clearly feel the weight in his arms. It was still too light.
He gently placed Sakura on her bed, then got up and went to the bathroom to pick up her towel. He put some warm water in the basin, waited until the towel was completely soaked, wrung it out, leaving only a little water, and gently wiped Sakura's cheek that was covered with sand.
Shikamaru looked at the girl on the bed, who was sleeping peacefully and breathing evenly. Her white hair was scattered casually on the pillow. When she closed her eyes, she no longer had her usual sharpness and calmness, but instead a little more tranquil, just like a little girl.
I let out a silent smile for no reason. This guy really... doesn't consider himself an outsider. I don't know if this is good or bad.
Wait a minute...
Shikamaru covered Sakura with the quilt. After doing everything, he slowly got up and looked at the girl on the bed. He couldn't help but kissed her on the forehead. Then he closed the door quietly and left.
But Shikamaru didn't notice that the girl on the bed had already woken up when he wiped her cheek...
