Chapter 405 Cake
The two arrived home quickly.
Although he became the Fifth Hokage, Chiyo did not move to a bigger house.
He had also grown attached to this old house, and after asking Zhiyu and Liuli, he found that they didn't want to move either, so he continued to live there.
"Excuse me!"
"I am back."
Karin and Chiyo spoke up one after the other, prompting Ruri to put down all the fish food she was holding.
Then he ran over.
"Karin is here too."
"Welcome home, brother."
Qianyao glanced at Xianglin: "It's her birthday today, so I brought her back for dinner."
Ruri hadn't expected it to be Karin's birthday: "Happy birthday, Karin."
Karin gave an embarrassed smile: "Thank you, Ruri-nee."
Zhiyu has already placed many dishes on the table in the yard.
It's hot outside and cool in the courtyard, so they all eat there.
Upon hearing this, she wiped her hands and congratulated Karin, saying, "Happy birthday, Karin."
"Thank you, Sister Zhiyu."
Qianyao's gaze swept over the three women. Xianglin and Zhiyu had similar body types, both being adult women.
On the contrary, Liuli looks like a little sister. Her leg has healed, but her frame and body are much smaller.
When Karin calls Ruri "older sister," it feels quite incongruous.
"Let's eat first," Qianyao said, noticing the food was ready.
The four of them quickly sat down to eat.
Zhiyu is a good cook, and Xianglin is a good girl who doesn't pick and choose her food. Her chopsticks move so fast they seem to leave a trail of shadows.
"Mmm...delicious...mmm..."
"Sister Zhiyu, what you made is... so delicious."
Karin's mouth was stuffed full as she chewed quickly while praising Ori.
Zhiyu smiled broadly, and seeing Liuli's good appetite, her face also lit up with a smile.
"Eat more if it's delicious."
"Um...uh..."
The person who cooked was living a hard life and had great reverence for food, so he devoured all the food in a flash.
Zhiyu and Liuli stared in disbelief.
After all, this was the first time they had ever seen a guest come over and finish all the food.
However, considering that Karin is only 11 years old, she smiled.
Karin's mouth was covered in oil from eating, and although she wasn't full, the table was already empty.
Realizing she might have made a mistake, Karin put down her chopsticks, feeling a little embarrassed.
"Knock knock knock..."
Just then, there was a knock on the door: "Clan leader, it is Lin Ren."
Qianyao estimated the time and nodded slightly: "Come in."
Rin came in carrying a box.
"Chief, it's just been made."
"Thank you for your hard work." Qianyao smiled, patted Linren's shoulder, and took the box from Linren's hand.
Rin bowed respectfully and left.
After Qianyao cleaned the table, he put the box on it.
"Open it, Karin."
Karin's eyes sparkled; she already knew what the box contained.
The box was opened, revealing a finished three-tiered cream cake!
Happy birthday, Karin.
Qianyao said with a smile.
"Wow! Thank you, Master!" Karin excitedly hugged Chiyo's face and gave him a big kiss.
Qianyao wiped his face with a hint of helplessness. This child still has this habit.
Liuli and Zhiyu, who were standing nearby, also stuck candles in the candles and lit them.
Chiyo gestured: "Make a wish, Karin."
"Hmm." Karin stared at the cake, then secretly glanced at Chiyo, closed her eyes, and began to make a wish.
In the candlelight, Karin's face was slightly flushed.
A moment later, Karin made a wish: "Phew..."
She blew out all the candles in one breath.
"Oh! Time to cut the cake!"
Karin opened her eyes and shouted excitedly; she hadn't eaten enough.
Seeing Karin's childlike behavior, Chiyo couldn't help but chuckle.
Karin picked up the cake knife and began to quickly cut the cake, first slicing a large piece and handing it to Chiyo.
Then comes Liuli, Zhiyu, and finally herself.
Karin poked some cream at Chiyo's face and said, "Hehe."
Chiyo also stuck some on Karin's nose.
"Alright, let's not waste it."
Many people have played the cake battle game, and in some places it is regarded as a blessing or a playful custom.
However, neither Chiyo nor Karin liked wasting food, so the meeting ended there.
The group started talking and eating cake at the same time.
Karin's face was filled with happiness.
She stole a glance at Qianyao, hoping that her wish could come true.
Cake is a high-calorie food, and most people would feel full after eating just one slice.
But apart from the few pieces that had just been separated, the rest all ended up in Karin's stomach.
Keep in mind that this is a 16-inch, three-tiered cake.
After finishing it all, Karin let out a satisfied burp.
After each rescue, her body would fall into a state of hunger.
Only by consuming large amounts of high-calorie foods can this be relieved.
Today's big cake undoubtedly filled Karin to her heart's content.
Karin patted her slightly chubby belly without any regard for her image: "Master, I'm full!"
"However, it seems like I've gained weight again." As she spoke, Karin pinched and tugged at the fat on her stomach, looking somewhat distressed.
Her movements revealed her true age.
Liuli and Zhiyu burst out laughing.
Qianyao couldn't help but smile: "Alright, everyone has several layers in their stomach when they're sitting down, but you won't have any when you stand up."
"Is that so?" Karin stood up, and the fat on her stomach disappeared instantly, leaving only a slight curve.
"And one more thing, Master, he's still chubby."
Chiyo ruffled Karin's hair: "A healthy girl looks better with a little bit of meat on her bones."
Karin smiled and said, "Hehe, as long as Master thinks it looks good, that's fine."
"It's getting late, I'll take you home." Qianyao wanted to discuss the next mission with Xianglin.
"Yes, Master."
"Sister Liuli Zhiyu, I'll be going now. Thank you for your hospitality!"
After bowing to Liuli and Zhiyu, he followed behind Qianyao.
Ruri and Zhiyu exchanged a smile; they both found Karin quite interesting.
Chiyo led Karin out of his house.
"Karin, there's a special mission in a couple of days that requires us to go together."
Karin's physical strength and chakra have been increasing rapidly lately.
She was just looking to test how much she had improved, so she was naturally very excited when she heard about the special mission.
"Really? So I'm with Kimimaro, Haku, and the others?"
Qian Yao shook his head: "No, this time, for the sake of mobility and secrecy, it will just be the two of us."
Karin's expression brightened with even more joy: "Great! I can go on missions with Master again!"
She hopped and skipped while holding Qianyao, and Qianyao helplessly managed to restrain her.
"Alright, I'll come find you again after I get the information."
