Chapter 806

"Itachi, if something's wrong, tell Mom and Dad. Even though we've been gone for many years, no matter what, we are still you and Sasuke's parents. As long as you need it, even if it costs us our lives again, we won't hesitate for a moment!"

Uchiha Fugaku was the sort with a rather taciturn personality. Although after being resurrected this time he looked several years younger than when he had died, psychologically there wouldn't be much change.

Compared to Bofengshui Sect's buoyant, cheerful fatherly love—the kind of playmate-style affection where he could throw down with his daughter at any moment and then keep on smiling and caring for each other—Uchiha Fugaku belonged to the stern-father type. This fatherly love was kept deep in his heart; even when he was satisfied with his son's growth, he rarely showed any praise.

"I know Sasuke will definitely be fine. That guy has kept Sasuke by his side ever since he was eight—he wouldn't bear to part with him."

Uchiha Itachi was briefly stunned, and a helpless smile surfaced on his face.

Raising his head again, as his gaze turned toward what should have been the room where Lin Cheng was, these words of comfort to his parents were also meant to put his own mind at ease.

"That child Lin Cheng is about the same age as Sasuke, right? Having to look after two special-status children his own age since he was so young—he's really had it hard."

Uchiha Mikoto also looked toward the house at this moment, but she still had some doubts about Lin Cheng being able to take care of Sasuke and Naruto. A child the same age—could he really pull off something like this?

Perhaps the village, considering that child's status, had arranged for someone to come to the Uchiha household to look after them on the side?

Kakashi seemed to have been one of those who moved into the Uchiha household back then, and then looked after these three youngsters.

"Lin Cheng."

Inside the upstairs room of the wooden cabin, Sasuke clung to Lin Cheng's neck and wouldn't let go.

She was about to complete her fourth transformation and become male, and when the time came that bastard definitely wouldn't be willing to get close to him anymore.

"Don't worry, I won't let them find out. Your brother only saw a little bit just now—find an excuse to fob him off later and that'll be enough."

"Mm!"

Lin Cheng lowered his head to explain to Sasuke. That single glance from Uchiha Itachi just now must have startled Sasuke.

But before he could finish speaking, Sasuke had already pulled him onto the bed with a forceful tug, pressing down on both his shoulders and bringing his lips up to meet his.

"Why do we have to fob him off? Why can't we let them know? Why can Naruto but I can't?"

After a deep kiss, a panting Sasuke glared at Lin Cheng.

She just couldn't understand why this guy couldn't even try to fight for it—just asking his opinion would have been fine too!
