Chapter 385: Dong Ping: I Just Made a Mistake That All Men in the World Would Make!
Chapter 385: Dong Ping: I Just Made a Mistake That All Men in the World Would Make!
At this moment!
Dong Ping had no idea that he was about to be schemed against, and even in the middle of the night, he was diligently working in his office.
Numerous affairs urgently required his decision-making.
If Uchiha Yae were here, he could delegate tasks to her, but recently, she had been leading troops outside, and some affairs had naturally accumulated.
As for Hyuga Cangyue, after returning, she would also go to inspect the River Country and the Tea Country.
After all, with the large-scale ninja retreat, it was natural to take extra precautions.
Knock, knock!
The sound of knocking on the door echoed.
"Come in!"
Dong Ping put down a material supply report he was holding.
After the door opened, Nohara Rin walked in, carrying something.
Dressed in a white silk skirt with a purple camisole underneath, her extremely pure and tender face was hard to bear.
There were even some stains on her chest, indicating how much effort she had put into the soup she was holding.
"Dong Ping-kun, I specially prepared this medicinal soup for you. Please drink it!"
As she spoke, her expression was peculiar.
However, Dong Ping, due to his flustered mind, did not notice.
The relationship between the two was more than just friends but not yet lovers.
Dong Ping naturally knew what was on her mind, and he wasn't some "Asa Shi" manga protagonist.
But for the sake of the other party and his own life, plus the belief that 'women would only hinder my research' progress, he decided to maintain a distance first.
He would consider his 'harem' plan when he was on his deathbed.
"Thank you, Rin!"
Dong Ping naturally wouldn't refuse this kind gesture, so he drank the soup she had prepared.
Note that this wasn't the first time this had happened.
Nohara Rin specialized in medical techniques and, along with Uzumaki Kaizou, was considered one of the two masters in the medical department, naturally proficient in pharmacology.
So, during Dong Ping's research, she had also brought medicinal soup before, but at that time, Hyuga Cangyue had taken the soup from her and brought it over, not giving her a chance to get close.
It must be said...
This soup was very nourishing!
A soup prepared by a ninja specializing in medical ninjutsu couldn't help but be nourishing.
Nohara Rin's talent in the medical field was not low. After all, she was able to perform eye transplant surgery right after going onto the battlefield; how could she not be strong?
At the Heavenly Fortress, Dong Ping imparted all his medical knowledge to her and Uzumaki Kaizou, and the two of them were his unnamed 'disciples' in the medical field.
However, Dong Ping never expected that his own disciple would 'play dirty' on him.
Not long after drinking the soup, he felt a familiar sense of powerlessness surge into his heart.
Saying it was familiar was because he had experienced this feeling a few years ago, and it had cost him a price.
But he never expected to experience it again.
"Maitreya, I..."
Just as Dong Ping was about to curse, he went soft and collapsed.
If it were a fast-acting poison, he could have used elemental transformation in the moment of poisoning to directly expel the poisoned area from his body.
But with this corrosive effect, how could he possibly do that?
Did he think elemental transformation consumed little energy?
Moreover, in this state, he couldn't even use chakra.
If he could use chakra, how could he have become 'fallen'?
He originally thought he wouldn't fall for it again.
After all, he wouldn't eat anything Maitreya brought.
But he never expected to be proven wrong.
"Dong Ping-kun, I'll send you back to rest!"
Before Dong Ping's consciousness became hazy, he heard Nohara Rin's soft yet anxious voice, with a hint of determination.
Omit tens of thousands of words!
(I know readers don't like reading these filler words, so I'll do it for you.)
The next day!
When Dong Ping regained consciousness, he found himself lying in his bed.
"Hiss!"
The all-too-familiar soreness made him gasp in surprise.
It was as if he had stayed up for several nights, working tirelessly, and his body was both sore and tired.
His mind quickly recalled everything from the previous day.
"I remember, it was Rin who came to deliver the soup, and then..."
A large number of memories began to revive, and his expression quickly changed.
From confusion, clarity, anger, helplessness... it finally turned into a bitter smile.
The second time!
Even though he wasn't some incompetent male protagonist, he had the ambition to 'establish a harem,' but he couldn't even manage a fiancee, let alone a harem.
It wasn't that he didn't want to, but it was too dangerous.
Others could spend money to build a harem, but for him, it would cost his life.
In the Shinobi World, a place where dark powers are tenfold, he dared not provoke Uchiha Yae and Hyuga Cangyue, lest he face a rhythmic death.
So, he tried his best to restrain himself.
Unexpectedly, something still went wrong.
"Damn it, I might not have refused even if it was obvious!"
Dong Ping sighed in frustration.
The key issue wasn't that he was affected, but despite his 'heavy losses', he felt nothing except a sore back.
Unbelievable!
In theory, he was still 'innocent', but in reality, he was no longer 'clean'.
As these thoughts crossed his mind, Dong Ping could only force himself to get up despite his soreness and start packing.
He feared Uchiha Yae's return.
She would be late because she was bringing a captive, but with a ninja's speed, she would likely return today.
If she found any traces in the house... Dong Ping didn't dare imagine that scene.
He'd have to carry a bag of rice up several floors!
A bag of rice to the second floor!
Alright, let's add some water!
(Uchiha Yae angrily activated the Rinnegan and started carrying the rice!)
Perhaps the Skyguard could directly remove him from the roster.
Fortunately!
Dong Ping checked and found that Nohara Rin had cleaned up all traces, leaving no signs of anything unusual.
If not for his body constantly alarming him, he might have thought all this was just his imagination.
While checking, he also reassured himself.
It's fine, I just made a mistake that any man in the world could make. (Long Ge's face!)
Having just finished checking, Dong Ping heard the door open and then met Uchiha Yae's gaze.
"Ha... Ha, Yae, you're back!"
He forced a laugh and greeted her.
Yes, the two of them lived together.
After all, they lived together in Konoha, so why wouldn't they live together in the Skyguard?
However, living together didn't mean sharing a room.
So, despite being an 'old couple', with a good relationship, they were truly 'innocent'.
"Didn't you already know I was coming back today?"
Uchiha Yae furrowed her brows, sensing that Dong Ping was a bit strange today.
"Yes... yes!"
Although he confirmed that no traces were left, Dong Ping still felt a bit uneasy.
After all, ninjas weren't ordinary people; their observational skills were countless times better than any detective, and even a single hair left behind might be found.
If they activated the Sharingan, forget about hair; even a single strand... cough cough.
It's safe to say that having an engaged fiancee with the Sharingan made it unlikely for Dong Ping to get away with anything. This was the main reason he dared not act recklessly.
Just having an engaged fiancee was already a significant pressure, not to mention the presence of Hyuga Cangyue, a dark and tsundere beauty.
The Rinnegan was even more terrifying in reconnaissance, several levels above the Sharingan. It was an ultimate skill for catching cheaters.
It was precisely because of their mutual restraint that Dong Ping hadn't succeeded with either of them and dared not act recklessly.
"I really don't know what you're thinking."
Although Uchiha Yae felt that Dong Ping was a bit strange today, she didn't pursue it further and returned to her room to freshen up.
After all, there wasn't much time or opportunity to bathe outside, and now that she was back, she naturally wanted to take a bath first.
Phew!
Seeing that his fiancee didn't continue her inquiry, Dong Ping quietly heaved a sigh of relief.
Although he appeared calm on the surface, his back was drenched in cold sweat.
There was no other way; having such a capable and beautiful fiancee was a great thing, but it was also dangerous.
After all, she could truly 'darken' and become ten times stronger, and she could genuinely darken.
There were countless examples of the Uchiha clan's darkening.
After changing into fresh clothes in his room, Dong Ping quietly made his way to the office.
Today was also the day for the formal 'meeting' with the Demon Nation Embassy.
He had no choice but to deal with these formalities, even though he didn't want to. It was for the sake of others.
For a formal meeting, it was natural to have several people on each side, not just two.
Dong Ping's side included himself, Uchiha Yae, and Uchiha Hachida.
The Demon Nation's side consisted of Maitreya, Kusakaki Seifu, and Violette.
The two sides met in a small conference room in the temporary building.
However, upon seeing the Demon Nation's lineup, Dong Ping felt an unbearable headache.
Damn it!
If Violette participated in the meeting, he wouldn't be able to hold his ground. So, he sat there with a twitching smile.
