Chapter 161

"Hmm?"

"How can Ryosuke be so certain?"

Lian looked at Mizunuki Ryosuke with puzzled eyes, a hint of suspicion in her gaze.

"Because I have already decided."

"I will definitely become this Mizukage!"

Mizunuki Ryosuke said firmly, a conviction sharper than steel flashing in his eyes.

Everything that happened during the day had already made Mizunuki Ryosuke determined.

"Ah?"

Mizunuki Lian reacted suddenly, assuming Mizunuki Ryosuke was just joking.

After another while, an extremely faint sound reached Ryosuke's ears.

If not for Ryosuke's exceptionally keen hearing, he might not have heard such a faint sound at all.

"Ryosuke"

"Do you like me?"

Words that were impossible to distinguish as a question or a mutter came from Mizunuki Lian's mouth.

After saying this, the young girl buried her cheeks in her thighs, a cute blush already burning to her earlobes.

At this, Ryosuke suddenly turned around, grabbed the girl's delicate body, leaned close to her ear, and softly said two words.

"I do."

When these two words clearly reached Lian's ears.

Mizunuki Lian instantly raised her head; in her extreme joy, tears even appeared at the corners of the girl's eyes.

"Really?"

Mizunuki Lian asked in disbelief.

Her appearance also made a hint of a smile flash in Mizunuki Ryosuke's eyes.

"Of course."

"How could I not like Sister Lian?"

Mizunuki Ryosuke gave a positive answer once again.

"But"

"But I am three years older than Ryosuke"

Lian's pretty face was already completely flushed, and she muttered to herself somewhat insecurely.

This year, Mizunuki Ryosuke was seventeen, while Mizunuki Lian was twenty.

"Silly girl."

"Even if you were thirty years older than me, I would still like you."

Lian's behavior made Mizunuki Ryosuke finally unable to hold back, and he said somewhat teasingly.

"Woo"

The mushy love words made Lian finally unable to hold on; her shame reached its peak, and she could only bury her head in Ryosuke's shoulder again after letting out a cute whimper...

Suddenly, Mizunuki Lian felt a slight chill on her finger.

When she raised her head to look, she discovered that a transparent ring condensed from ice had already appeared on her middle finger.

"Sister Lian, wait until everything is over."

"Let's get married."

A calm sentence, yet it exploded like a cannonball in the lake of Lian's heart.

When Mizunuki Lian raised her head and looked into Ryosuke's eyes.

For a moment, Lian was unable to determine whether the stars filling the sky were in the heavens or within Ryosuke's eyes.

At this moment, Mizunuki Lian only felt that the eyes of the young man before her were more brilliant than the Heavenly River.

"Mm"

It was still a response as faint as a mosquito's hum.

Afterwards, under the night, the young man and the young girl snuggled together.

It was already very late.

A figure hidden under a black robe moved quickly through the streets of Kirigakure.

Before long, he arrived in front of an extremely secretive building.

The Mist Anbu building.

Ever since the coup by Xuanwozhang Sect failed, the entire Anbu faced a purge.

The Anbu building also became the place where Anbu ninjas who participated in the rebellion were imprisoned.

The mysterious person took off the black robe, revealing his true appearance.

A young face, an exceptionally handsome look, and a tall, straight posture.

It was none other than Mizunuki Ryosuke.

Afterwards, Ryosuke formed seals with one hand, and his figure instantly disappeared from the spot.

Twenty minutes later, Mizunuki Ryosuke had already arrived deep within the Anbu building, one hundred meters underground.

As Mizunuki Ryosuke slowly stepped into the underground space, an old man in the deepest part of the space revealed a smile.

"Is that you, Ryosuke? You've returned."

Hearing this, Mizunuki Ryosuke also revealed a smile.

"Of course."

"Good evening, Mr. Madara."

Mizunuki Ryosuke bowed slightly toward Uchiha Madara before him.

"How was your play this time?"

Uchiha Madara looked at Mizunuki Ryosuke with great interest.

At this moment, he could clearly perceive the aura of the Three-Tails on Mizunuki Ryosuke.

"I suppose it was barely satisfying."

Facing Madara's inquiry, Mizunuki Ryosuke only said with a smile.

His eyes carried a flickering luster.
