Konoha: My peaceful life was betrayed by the system.

Zhili couldn't help but laugh: "Of course, of course I'd like to."

Then he extended his hand.

Qu Feng put the ring he had prepared beforehand on her hand; the size was just right.

Then, he got up and helped Zhili wipe away the tears on her face.

"Okay, stop crying. I rarely see you cry."

Chiri has always been a very strong girl and rarely shows this kind of expression.

Upon hearing this, Zhili rolled her eyes at Qufeng: "It's all your fault. I really thought you had been swallowed up. I was on tenterhooks the whole way here."

Toru didn't say anything, he just hugged Chiri and looked at Chiri in his arms, he couldn't quite describe what he felt.

I am very happy, touched and grateful that Zhili has been by my side all these years.

They were already family, and today's proposal simply added another layer to their relationship.

Before long, they will become husband and wife.

"I knew it! What kind of maze could trap you like this? And this thing is getting weirder and weirder as you go in; it's practically pushing me into this room."

Zhili wiped away her tears and said with a smile.

Qu Feng patted her head and said, "I've actually been by your side the whole time. The wall that was blocking you was formed by me using Cloud Release. Otherwise, this forest is so big, you probably wouldn't have been able to find this spire on your own in a while."

Zhili was quite touched. Firstly, she hadn't expected that Qufeng would choose to propose to her today, and secondly, the way he proposed was quite novel.

She found it quite interesting, like a puzzle game, and received a reward after successfully completing it.

Chiri turned and looked around. The entire spire was made of crystal, and the sunlight reflected off it, creating a dazzling effect.

It was incredibly magnificent and dazzling. Zhili would probably never forget this day, in this vast forest where almost no humans had ever set foot.

How long have you been preparing?

"I've always planned to propose this way. I've rehearsed it in my mind many times before, and today is the day I officially put it into practice."

That means they really put a lot of effort into it.

“I’m very satisfied with this. Is there anything else? If not, shall we go back to the village? The sun is about to set.”

Upon hearing this, Qu Feng snapped his fingers, and the crystal spire slowly broke in two, eventually sinking into the ground.

At that moment, they could see the calm lake surface and the setting sun.

"This could be considered another program, Sunset."

"I hope we can stay together until dusk."

Chiri kissed Torifu, then smiled and said, "Of course, we're family."

Qu Feng smiled and then took out two rocking chairs from his ring and placed them on the ground.

He and Chiri lay there, admiring the setting sun.

The lake was very calm, with only a slight ripple caused by the occasional breeze.

Some fishing birds circled and called out on the lake; everything was so peaceful and serene.

Chiri stretched out her hand and looked at the gemstone ring she was wearing.

"What kind of gemstone is this? It's so beautiful."

"Do you like the yellow sapphire?"

Zhili nodded: "I like it very much, it's just that the name is a bit ordinary."

She then pondered for a moment: "This gemstone ring is the same color as the sunset, so let's call it Sunset."

"It's a really good name, I'm glad you like it."

The yellow gemstones shone brightly under the setting sun, their starlight scattering across Zhili's body.

The two lay hand in hand beside the lake, watching the sunset slowly sink into the forest, until they could no longer see the sun.

Qu Feng then pulled Zhili up.

"Let's go back to the village and have a nice meal together tonight!"

"Okay!"

Chiri is completely different from when I came here. I was a little disappointed back then, but now I feel full of happiness and satisfaction.

She had finally waited for this day. Ever since she and Qu Feng officially started dating, she had been waiting for this day.

When that day finally arrived, Chiri was somewhat bewildered and at a loss.

It was also related to the surprise of catching the wind; when she realized what had happened, she couldn't help but want to cry.

"Psychic art!"

A puff of white smoke dissipated, and Qingyun and Liufeng appeared before the two.

"Has it been successful? The wind-gathering?"

Qu Feng smiled and nodded: "Of course, the proposal was successful, and the wedding will be on the agenda soon."

"Hey~ Humans are so nice, they even have weddings. I and Liufeng didn't have a wedding."

"If you'd like, I can get you a replacement."

Upon hearing this, Liu Feng shook his head: "Forget it, it's a bit embarrassing for two cranes to have a wedding. Let's hurry home."

Qingyun's idea was completely rejected by his wife, and he could only nod reluctantly.

Qu Feng smiled helplessly, and then rode Qingyun and Liufeng back to Konoha Village with Zhili.

Throughout the journey, Qingyun tried to persuade Liufeng to change his mind, but Liufeng showed no interest in having a wedding.

Even his persistent pleading was useless, and he could only give up in the end.

If Liufeng agrees, Qufeng will really give them an unprecedented crane wedding.

It's a pity we can't see this kind of scene anymore.

After returning to Konoha Village, Jiri followed Torifu back to the Cloud Clan's territory.

Minato and Yahiko Konan were both in the courtyard at that moment.

When Minato saw Tori and Chiri return together, he knew that things must have gone quite smoothly.

"Big brother, Sister Zhili, did you... succeed?"

Torufu patted Minato's head: "Of course, your sister Chiri has accepted my proposal, so you'll have to call her sister-in-law from now on."

Minato looked simple and honest, but he was actually quite clever. He immediately called her "sister-in-law".

Zhili smiled and nodded: "I don't quite like it yet, but I do like it. Let's call you that from now on."

Yahiko and Konan also stepped forward and sweetly called out "Master's wife".

This was exactly what Zhili wanted: "My dears, I'll take you to eat something delicious later."

Seeing how happy Jiri was, a smile unconsciously crept onto Torifuji's own face.

"You two should have practiced diligently this afternoon, right?"

Yahiko gave a thumbs up: "Of course, Master! I feel like my chakra is super abundant right now! I could take on ten of them!"

Qu Feng chuckled and tapped Yahiko on the head: "You little rascal, your bragging skills are second to none. Don't be arrogant, keep up your training."

Minato knew that Yahiko was teasing him, so he didn't use a serious tone, but rather a slightly joking one.

As expected, Yahiko understood and chuckled.

Konan took a pretty little paper flower out of her fanny pack and handed it to Jiri.

"Master's wife, these are paper flowers I folded, I'm giving them to you."

After taking the paper flower, Zhili followed Minami's method and pinned it to her head, which looked very much in line with her overall style.

And she wore a white dress today, which looked very pretty.

"Thank you, Xiao Nan. I really like this gift. Is there anything you'd like to eat? Let's go out for dinner together tonight."

Xiao Nan wasn't reserved at all. After thinking for a while, she blurted out, "Master's wife, how about we go eat hot pot?"

"Hot pot? Sure."

Chiri also loves hot pot. Her favorite food used to be barbecue, but after eating hot pot last time, she fell in love with it.

Hot pot and barbecue are arguably the two most popular foods in Konoha Village.

And you could say you'll never get tired of eating it, no matter how much you eat it.

More importantly, the variety of restaurants in Konoha Village is relatively limited.

The only suitable places to entertain a large group of people are barbecue restaurants and hot pot restaurants.

Even a week ago, there weren't any hot pot restaurants; the only restaurants in the entire Hidden Leaf Village were barbecue restaurants.

Even so, people's enthusiasm for barbecue has not waned over the years.
