Living your daily life in a shonen anime seems to be wrong.

"Big brother, haven't we met somewhere before?"

"Maybe."

Qi Ye yawned and walked to his seat.

"Give me one bowl... no, two bowls... three bowls of ramen, with lots of vegetables, all kinds."

"okay!"

……

In the Hyuga family home, in Hyuga Hanabi's small courtyard.

There is a pavilion here, and Hyuga Hanabi and Hyuga Hinata are sitting here right now.

Hinata Natsu served him from the side.

Hinata Hyuga had her head down, looking somewhat sullen.

Hinata Hanabi's expression remained calm; it seemed that only when facing Nanaya could she put on a cute smile.

Sometimes, Hinata Natsumi felt a little uneasy.

This little girl, who is only seven years old, seems far too calm.

Will Qiye become another indifferent person again?

He took a sip of hot tea and put down the teacup.

For once, a smile appeared on his face.

"Although there has been no response from Brother Qiye, Sister is now engaged. Aren't you happy?"

"..."

How could I possibly be happy?

Hinata Hyuga and Shichiya had never even met properly, yet he suddenly told her that she was going to marry Shichiya.

What's so special about this?

Chapter 77: Too Hasty

Hinata Hyuga knew about Nanaya.

It's that person who sent a ton of things and a large sum of pocket money to Hinata Hanabi when she was just a month old, someone whose name I've only heard of but never met.

I remember back then, she also received a share of pocket money, which was a huge amount. In addition, her family also gave her a share of pocket money every month, so she still has quite a bit left over.

This was perhaps the only memorable interaction between her and Qiye.

In fact, Qi Ye had seen her when she was a month old and even played with her for a bit, though it was just touching her face and such.

However, that doesn't matter.

The important thing is that with such a sudden engagement, how could anyone be happy?

More importantly, this engagement is currently only wishful thinking on the part of the Hyuga family, and Shichiya has not responded at all.

It's not that the Hyuga clan is shamelessly trying to cling to Shichiya, but Jiraiya somehow managed to get the elders' approval, so the engagement probably won't be dissolved.

Just before, Hiashi Hyuga had spoken to her, telling her to visit Shichiya more often in the future.

In the name of his fiancée.

We also need to pay more attention to Qiye, and do housework if we can, and find a way to do it even if we can't.

If all else fails, then learn from Hinata Natsumi.

But she really couldn't do it. How could she suddenly run over to take care of someone she didn't know, or even someone she'd never met, and act like a submissive wife?

She even wondered if she had been sold off like that.

"Actually, sister, you don't need to worry. Brother Shichiya probably won't care about this matter at all. It's just that Lord Jiraiya is wishful thinking."

Hinata Hanabi still had a smile on her face.

Having spent a lot of time with Qiye, I naturally understand him quite well.

But before Hinata could catch her breath, she continued speaking.

"However, this was something Father personally agreed to, and it has spread, so it's common knowledge. It's not realistic to pretend nothing happened."

"?"

Hinata Hyuga looked at her younger sister with confusion, not understanding what she meant.

Actually, the meaning of Hinata Hanabi is quite simple.

"So, sister, you should try to accept it. I'll help you!"

"..."

So not only did her father support her, but her sister did too?

A marriage agreement!

Thinking about this, Hinata Hyuga suddenly felt like crying.

Indeed, life is unpredictable!

……

Ichiraku Ramen Restaurant.

Nanaya and Naruto Uzumaki are eating ramen.

"I knew it! I met you a few years ago, at Uncle Yile's place. Is Brother Qiye here on vacation this time too? But speaking of which, Brother Qiye, your name sounds familiar."

While eating a large bowl of ramen, Naruto Uzumaki frowned in thought.

I seem to hear this name quite often lately.

Nanaya ignored him and ate his ramen at a pace that looked slow but was actually quite fast.

Uncle Ichiraku always seemed to be smiling, and since he didn't need to cook noodles, he was able to chat with the customers.

"Of course I'm familiar with him. Lord Shichiya is a hero of Konoha."

"hero?"

"Yes, during the Third Shinobi World War, Lord Shichiya led his airship force to launch a night raid on Sunagakure, which caused the village's defenses to collapse and its people to scatter. Later, he attacked Iwagakure and joined forces with the Fourth Hokage to drive the Iwagakure ninja back to their border."

"The Fourth Hokage? The Fourth Hokage? Brother Qiye even fought alongside the Fourth Hokage? But he looks very young."

"Hmm, Lord Shichiya has a knack for maintaining his youthful appearance. However, Lord Shichiya is actually older than Lord Kakashi."

"Huh? Bigger than Kakashi-sensei?"

Naruto Uzumaki stared wide-eyed at Nanaya in disbelief.

If Kakashi is a young man, then Nanaya is just a teenager.

Is someone older than Kakashi?

Qiye still didn't say anything, but started eating his second bowl of ramen.

Uncle Yi Le was somewhat moved.

"Speaking of which, when Lord Shichiya came here to eat ramen back then, he asked me if my daughter had been born yet, and even said he wanted to get engaged. If I had agreed back then, Ayame would have had to take Lord Shichiya's surname!"

"father!"

The busy calamus pouted, seemingly blushing slightly.

He glanced at Shichiya, then went back to cooking ramen.

Qi Ye's appearance is quite appealing to girls.

Meanwhile, Shichiya remained focused on preparing ramen.

He only mentioned what happened back then casually and didn't take it to heart at all.

If Uncle Ichiraku hadn't mentioned it, he wouldn't have remembered that such a thing had ever happened.

But it's amazing that Uncle Ichiraku could remember such a small thing...

So he really is surnamed Otsutsuki?

"That's what they say, but they don't really look like ninjas."

Naruto Uzumaki seemed somewhat incredulous.

The Fourth Hokage was such a powerful figure, but Shichiya didn't seem powerful at all. Did such a person really fight alongside the Fourth Hokage?

However, suddenly, Naruto Uzumaki remembered something.

"Oh! The one who's going to marry Hinata, I can tell you where I've heard that name before."

Hinata Hyuga was betrothed to Nanaya, and her classmates knew about it.

That strange girl whose eyes always darted around.

"Does Brother Qiye like that kind of thing?"

"..."

Qi Ye glanced at him sideways.

This guy keeps nagging, it's so annoying.

Can't even ramen shut him up?

And what's with this "marriage" nonsense? He's supposed to marry Hinata Hyuga in the future...

Okay, let's not talk about the future now.

Who knows what will happen in the future?

Just as he never expected that Jiraiya and Hiashi Hyuga would conspire to marry Hinata Hyuga to him.

He's old enough to be Hinata Hyuga's father, isn't he?

So, Konoha really isn't a good place for him? He always manages to cause trouble whenever there's nothing wrong with him.

"Oh, I found it."
