The Hokage, having traveled here, of course he'd unify the ninja world!

Chapter 686 The Only Love

Upon hearing Chiyo's question, Karin couldn't help but let out a soft chuckle.

She tilted her head slightly, gazing at Qian Yao with her bright, watery eyes, and softly replied:

“I knew my master would definitely take me home, but I never expected…”

In fact, Karin originally only hoped to fall into a drowsy state by drinking the water of life so that she could enjoy the feeling of being gently embraced by her master.

However, in her dazed state, she somehow managed to forcefully keep her master with her.

For Qianyao, where he sleeps doesn't really make much difference.

In addition, he had always doted on Karin, so he ultimately chose to stay.

Just as the two were immersed in this warm atmosphere, Karin hugged Chiyo tightly and said with an extremely serious expression:

"Yes, Master, I like you."

Looking at the shy and adorable Karin in front of him, Qianyao couldn't help but smile indulgently.

He leaned closer to Karin and gently placed a tender kiss on her smooth, jade-like forehead, whispering:

I like you too.

Upon hearing Chiyo say those words, Karin's pretty face instantly turned bright red, like a ripe apple.

She felt both extremely shy and unable to suppress her inner joy.

She gently leaned against Qianyao and asked softly:

"Master, why were you able to accept me so quickly?"

Upon hearing this, Qianyao couldn't help but chuckle.

"Silly girl, you're so good to me, give me one reason not to accept you?"

For Chiyo, as the Fifth Hokage, finding a partner was not difficult.

However, compared to getting to know someone of unknown origin, he actually preferred someone like Karin, with whom he knew each other well and was familiar with each other.

After all, Karin had liked him since childhood, and during the five years he was missing, Karin waited steadfastly for his return.

This affection has deepened into a profound love, and Qianyao would certainly not disappoint this girl who has his heart set on her.

Karin's affection for Chiyo stems from the intertwining and accumulation of various complex emotions.

From initial admiration and worship, to later dependence and affection, and now to unforgettable love.

Every emotion was intertwined like threads, together weaving the inseparable affection in her heart.

Looking at the whole world, it would be difficult to find another man who would love her as much as Qianyao.

Once Karin has identified the person she loves, she decides to stick with her to the very end.

If Qianyao ultimately does not reciprocate her feelings, she would rather choose to live alone and spend the rest of her life in silence.

Karin, also known as "Karin," symbolizes "the only love," which translates to "the only love" in Chinese.

At this moment, Karin hadn't thought of any of this, but when she felt Chiyo's approval of her, an indescribable joy still welled up in her heart.

"Alright, Karin, get up first. I have a lot of things to take care of today, and you should also hurry up and report to the Barrier Class."

As Qianyao spoke, he reached out and gently patted Xianglin's round and perky buttocks, signaling her to get up quickly.

Upon hearing this, Karin, though reluctant to part with Chiyo, obediently nodded.

She held Qianyao's cheeks tightly with both hands, gave him a quick, fleeting kiss, and then reluctantly moved away from his warm embrace.

"Go wash up and get to work first. Come find me when you're done."

"Two more Hyuga clan members will be resurrected today."

"Yes, I understand, Master."

Karin responded. After speaking, she prepared to get out of bed. However, at that moment, she felt that her clothes seemed to be constricting her, making her feel uncomfortable.

It turns out that the two of them hadn't taken off their clothes when they slept in each other's arms last night, so their clothes looked a bit disheveled at the moment.

Qianyao's clothes were covered with wrinkles of all sizes, and even the belt around his waist had come loose and fallen apart at some point.

Karin wasn't in much better shape; one of her socks had unknowingly shrunk to her ankle, and her halter top had twisted to one side while she was sleeping.

At this time, she was very voluptuous, but Karin's personality was that of a mischievous child.

So, although Karin blushed a little, she still straightened her clothes in front of Chiyo, and naturally she would occasionally "accidentally" expose herself.

When she noticed Qian Yao's burning gaze fixed on her chest, a smug and delighted expression appeared on her face.

Seeing this, Qianyao tapped Xianglin on the head in an annoyed tone: "Stop fooling around, I'm going back first."

As she spoke, she reached out and tidied her clothes slightly, then gently smoothed Karin's slightly messy hair.

"Okay, Master, I'll come find you later."

Karin stuck out her tongue and stopped being naughty.

After Chiyo left, Karin removed her clothes and gracefully walked into the bathroom.

The warm water flowed like a gentle rain onto her delicate skin, bringing a comfortable sensation.

She stood quietly under the showerhead, letting the water spray wash over her body, but her thoughts drifted back to what had happened that morning.

Recalling those amusing moments, the corners of her mouth gradually turned up, and a sly smile quietly appeared on her beautiful face.

Then, Karin lowered her head slightly, her gaze falling on the area where her view was obstructed. She pondered to herself:

I wonder if Master will like it? He probably will, otherwise he wouldn't be staring at it so intently.

Perhaps it was because the steam in the bathroom was too hot, but Karin's cheeks were always flushed with an alluring blush.

……

When Chiyo left Karin's house, he did not encounter anyone along the way.

However, when he gently pushed open his own door, he was surprised to find that Liuli and Zhiyu were staring at him with strange expressions.

This sudden gaze left Qian Yao somewhat bewildered, and he couldn't help but ask:

"What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?"

Liuli walked briskly to Qianyao's side, sniffed at him, and then said with a suspicious look:

"Did you spend the night at Karin's place last night?"

Faced with Liuli's question, Qianyao was taken aback at first, but still nodded truthfully and answered:

"Ah."

He was secretly amazed by Liuli's keen sense of smell, which allowed her to detect the lingering scent on his body.

Qianyao subconsciously raised his arm and smelled his body, and sure enough, he smelled a faint fragrance.

The fragrance had the scent of the shower gel Karin usually used, but it also seemed to have a faint, unique body scent mixed in.

Liuli turned her head and her gaze met Zhiyu's. A hint of gossip flashed in both of their eyes.

With a smile, she asked, "So, from now on, will we have to call Karin 'sister-in-law'?"

Standing to the side, Qianyao smiled and then solemnly said to Liuli:

“We’re not married yet, so you can call me ‘sister-in-law’ later.”

Changing the subject, Qianyao added, "However, her status as your future sister-in-law is already a done deal."
