Shunren took in Hezi and her widowed mother, who were both orphans, and brought them home.

"Thank you, Shunren... Master." Although she was living under someone else's roof, at least she had a place to stay, which was the greatest happiness for Hezi, who had been in despair just a moment ago.

"Just call me Shunren, Hezi." Shunren disliked formality, and his mental age was even older than the other person's, so he could address the other person by their name without any awkwardness.

During the last survival exercise, Hezi treated his injuries. Shunren is a person who clearly distinguishes between gratitude and resentment, and he remembered the favor she did for him. Now that he has the opportunity, he will repay her.

"Mommy~ Mommy, ee-ya~" The baby on Hezi's back babbled incoherently.

Shunren glanced at her and noticed that the little child was also staring at him with wide, dark eyes, curiously examining him. "A boy?"

"It's a girl." Hezi's eyes were filled with maternal tenderness as she looked at the child.

"Really? Very cute. What's your name?" Shunren asked casually, then took off his coat and put it aside. Taking in Hezi was a favor, but Shunren wouldn't skip the chores that servants should do.

"[yizi]...[yizimi]..." The girl sucked on her finger, responding to him indistinctly.

As Hezi carefully folded her coat, she smiled and said, "My name is Quan."

"Uchiha Izumi?" Shunren's eyes flickered, and he then looked at the corner of the girl's eye, where he found a small beauty mark.

"Uh... we don't even dare to use that surname ourselves," Hezi quickly shook her head.

"Is that so?" Shunren's expression remained unchanged, but a slight change occurred in his heart.

Uchiha Izumi —this name might sound unfamiliar, but she is actually a character who appeared in the original work. Only hardcore Hokage would truly remember this name, right?

Speaking of Uchiha Izumi, there isn't much information about her in the original work. The only setting is that she was one of the very few female ninjas in Uchiha history to awaken the Sharingan, and she awakened it at the age of five, two years earlier than the genius Itachi, demonstrating her considerable talent. However, it seems that because she was a woman, she didn't receive much attention from the Uchiha and remained relatively unknown until her death on the night of the clan's massacre.

Unexpectedly, in a casual act, Shunren unexpectedly encountered a character from the original story, but he didn't pay much attention to it and just gleaned some information.

And so, Hezi and her daughter Quan settled down in Shunren's house and became his servants, taking care of his daily needs.

Nothing particularly noteworthy happened in the following days. Shunren stayed at home, honing his swordsmanship alone.

A week later, Shunren did not go out, but someone came to his door.

"Shun... Eh?" Hong personally found Shunren's new residence, only to be surprised to find a young woman opening the door. "Hello, is this Uchiha Shunren's house? Huh... who are you?"

Hong felt that the woman in front of her looked familiar, and then recognized her identity.

"A friend of Shunren? Please come in~" Although Hezi is blind, as a former ninja, her senses are still beyond the reach of ordinary people.

"Uh, okay." Hongxin, still puzzled Earth Flow straight into the house, intending to ask Shunren for clarification.

However, after Hong entered the hall, she witnessed a scene that left her petrified.

"Daddy~"

"No."

"Bye~"

"No."

"Daddy~"

"Correct... uh, no!"

Shunren lay down on a cool mat for a short rest.

But he was entangled with this little girl, Quan, and what made him even more speechless was that she clung to him, calling him "Dad." Keep in mind, his current body belonged to a boy not even ten years old—where did this child come from? Hong stared at him in utter shock, "Shunren! This...whose child is this!"

"Hezi." Shunren turned around and Teuchi her casually, "Hong, you're here. Perfect timing, come and help me out..."

"Hezi?" Hong turned her head to look at the person cleaning not far away, kneeling on the floor with a rag, diligently wiping up and down. With this movement, her ample breasts were clearly visible. Hong couldn't help but swallow, her face turning bright red, and she glared fiercely at Shunren, "Shunren, you you you you you! When did you... get married and have a child?!"

"Huh? Are you stupid...?" Shunren looked at Hong speechlessly, then shrugged and said, "Hong, please use your brain."

"Hmph~ I... I was just joking with you!" Hong quickly recovered; the shocking scene she had just witnessed had momentarily stunned her. To cover her embarrassment and anger, Hong immediately changed the subject, "Explain it to me."

Shunren lifted the spring that had climbed onto his neck with one hand, pinched its rosy little face, and briefly explained the matter of Hezi and the spring to Hong.

That's how it is.

"I see..." A look of pity appeared on Hong's face, which then turned into indignation. "The Uchiha Clan! How could they do this? It's so disrespectful to women!"

Hezi was injured on the job while working as a ninja. After retiring, she not only didn't receive any compensation from her clan, but also faced exclusion, discrimination, and even expulsion. To outsiders, the Uchiha's actions seemed incredibly inhumane.

Then, Kurenai's gaze fell upon Shunren's clothes, the Uchiha Gunbai and fans emblazoned on his shoulders, and she said in a slightly cold voice, "Shunren, shouldn't I call you Uchiha Shunren now?"

"Just call me Shunren as usual. You should know I'm not that kind of person," Shunren said calmly.

Hearing this, Kurenai's expression softened slightly, but she still glared at him and said bluntly, "If you become that arrogant guy, then I, Kurenai Yuhi, have misjudged you!"

"Alright, alright, tell me, what brings you here today?" Shunren smiled slightly, knowing Hong's textbook-perfect arrogant personality.

"Can't I come to see you if there's nothing wrong?" Hong glared at him again, then sighed and said, "But I really do have something to ask you today."

"What?"

"Teacher Inoichi has woken up," Hong said calmly.

"Really? That's wonderful." Shunren's eyes flickered, showing no surprise, clearly having expected it. "Tsunade, one of the Legendary Sannin, has returned?"

"What? You already knew?" Hong asked in surprise.

"Anything else? Another matter." From the fact that Hong didn't show any joy when she mentioned that Inoichi woken up, Shunren could tell that there was another matter.

Her Red Eye widened slightly, and she opened her mouth, unsure how to speak for a moment. After a pause, she gritted her teeth and said in a low voice, "I heard that Lady Tsunade is going to take Shizune away from the village..."
