I'm Here to Join This Family, Not to Tear It Apart

At night, Makoto was supported by Kakashi back to his mansion.

After a brief exchange with Anbu who was hiding near the Hokage Mansion, Kakashi stepped forward and rang the doorbell with the belief that he must die.

The door was quickly opened.

From inside emerged a black-haired princess-cut girl in a delicate kimono.

Of course, this is Haku.

Haku also held a storybook in her hand.

Kakashi recognized the storybook, knew Makoto wrote it, and still remembered the plot in it.

It roughly describes a reformer named Shang Yang who was ordered to reform a country. Although he succeeded in the end, he was jointly liquidated by other great nobles.

T/N: 'Shang Yang', his policies laid administrative, political, and economic foundations that eventually allow Qin to conquer the six other rival states

They dismembered Shang Yang's body by using six horses, and even forced the action to be executed by the six girls who loved him dearly.

Dividing the corpse by using six horses is an extremely painful punishment. For girls who rode the horses, the faster they run, the less pain their lovers will suffer.

T/N: 'liu ma fen shi' – normally it's written as 'wu ma fen shi', which is a form of dismemberment from ancient China by tying each limb of a man to a horse, then the horses will run in a different direction to dismember the living person

But in turn, it was also ending his life as quickly as possible.

Ever since he learned how to read, Haku liked all kinds of love stories written by Makoto. Now she ran out with a book in her hand, obviously waiting for Makoto to come home...

It's terrible.

But there is no other way.

Kakashi bit the bullet and stepped forward to say hello.

"Haku-san..."

"Nii-san... huh?!"

Haku let out a small exclamation.

The reason why the little girl was surprised was not only seeing a drunk Makoto, but also because she saw the blonde girl who came back with Makoto and Kakashi.

The girl is naturally Temari.

The efficiency of the ninjas is very high. The high-level executives here have just negotiated. Konoha hasn't even sent a dowry over and they have already left Temuri.

...Of course, protocols are fine.

But little Haku didn't understand those important family and country affairs. She just instinctively felt a crisis from this peer.

Makoto was drunk by the animals of Suna, and as the secretary of Hokage, he had to be responsible for introducing the future madam of the Hokage to meet his lover... who made Minatsuki and Haku live in the Hokage Mansion.

Others, including the Sandaime, have already run away, but Kakashi, this secretary, really couldn't run away, so he can only bite the bullet.

"She... uh, Haku-san, this is Temari-san."

"Hello, Temari-san."

Generally speaking, Minatsuki's upbringing is still very good. Haku is still young, but she is still very gentle when dealing with people.

"Is this nii-san's guest?"

Makoto pretended to be dead without any reaction.

There was already a slight dissatisfaction on Temari's face.

This is different from what her father told her when she left the village.

She was willing to sacrifice for the village. As the Kazekage's eldest daughter, she has this awareness – even though she doesn't actually understand many of the key points.

But when she was ready and came to her future husband's house... this scumbag already has a woman!

Politically speaking, Makoto does not have a regular wife, that is, he is not married. But in reality...

Kakashi's head was full of cold sweat, but he couldn't help but answer.

"That... actually... Temari-san is... Hokage-sama's fiancée..."

"Fian...-cée?"

Countless question marks appeared on Haku's forehead.

She looked at Makoto, then at Temari, and steam rose from her head.

Well, the little girl is overloaded.

Fortunately, at this time, Minatsuki also came out.

"Hey, Kakashi? Why did Makoto become drunk like this? This is... come in first, it's windy outside."

Kakashi wanted to escape, but Minatsuki grabbed his collar of unavoidable fate.

She smiled, but like a devil.

In desperation, he could only continue to bite the bullet and entered the Hokage Mansion.

This mansion, which he is very familiar with, is like a tiger's den in his eyes at this moment.

He didn't want to know what would happen next, let alone experience it himself.

From the perspective of Hokage's secretary, he doesn't think marriage is a bad choice. With Kiri Village still showing no response, forming an alliance with Suna was a matter of course.

But now the current situation...

The relationship between Minatsuki and Temari is really embarrassing.

Whether according to the rules of Konoha or Land of Fire, Temari is a real fiancée, while Minatsuki is a mistress... actually, not even a mistress.

If you follow Jinjiang's procedure, it will be a plot where the main wife bullies the mistress.

T/N: 'Jinjiang', Chinese romance novel website, many of the novels with the settings of ancient China have clichés

But here's a small problem... Temari is only three years old, and Minatsuki is already a woman with a child.

This position is not on a level at all.

What's going to happen next?

Anyway, Kakashi was under a lot of pressure.

But currently, Makoto was very drunk.

"Come on, come on... the Sandaime is inferior, just drink a few cans and already drunk... –

"People have three desires, namely appetite, sleep desire... –

"There are some secrets that you can't tell until you die..."

Makoto was talking nonsense, and Minatsuki put him on the bed in distress.

She carefully took off Makoto's coat and then brought out the hangover soup that had been prepared from the kitchen.

Before having dinner with the sand ninjas, Makoto had sent Anbu to deliver a message that he would not go home for dinner at night. Minatsuki guessed that he was going to drink with someone, so he prepared a hangover soup early.

Now it really came in handy.

She just didn't expect Makoto to be this drunk.

"You're already Hokage. If you really want to refuse, who will pour you wine... You are really stubborn..."

Minatsuki said softly, like a real lady in the first house. She arranged everything properly.

Temari puffed up her cheeks like a puffer fish.

It's not that Minatsuki didn't do well, but because she did too well. This reminded Temari of her mother... In this family, she should have done these things.

Girls who grew up under the harsh wind and sand have a somewhat stubborn temper. The harsh natural environment cannot defeat them, and neither can rival in love!

But before Temari's attack, Minatsuki had already squatted down, looking at him tenderly.

"You are... Makoto's future wife."

"Hm!... my name is Temari!"

"That's really nice."

Saying that, Minatsuki hugged Temari, and buried her small head in her chest.

"Temari-san, I'm sorry. –

"But Makoto is a bad guy. He always can't see others suffer. And I'm a mean person because I can't live alone in this world... –

"But please believe me, I'm here to join this family, not to tear it apart..."

Two of the most romantic things in the world.

One is to face the most powerful enemy on the final battlefield that determines the future direction of the world, and turn the situation around with one's own strength.

The second... is being held in the arms of the gentle big sister, gently touching her head, and praising her softly.

Minatsuki's posture was very low, and there was an endless capacity in her words, and Temari was completely stupefied at once.

Kakashi was completely numb.

– Gasp, I heard something terrible, run!

Godaime, you are playing so flamboyantly in private!

No matter how Temari and Minatsuki fight, it will probably be fine in the end. But if he hears some things... he will definitely be beaten by Makoto!

Having been with Makoto for so long, Kakashi still knows a bit about his big boss and knows what kind of moral vacuum he is.

Seeing that things were not good, Kakashi didn't care about being rude, so he prepared to open his mouth.

However, Makoto's cold gaze stopped him.

At some point, Makoto opened his eyes and looked at him mercilessly.

At this moment, he didn't look like he was drunk at all.

A voice that only Kakashi could hear rang in his ear.

"I finally pretended to be drunk... But now you want me to die... Let's die together tonight!"

Kakashi wanted to grit his teeth.

But in the end, he chose to surrender to reality.

"Yes, Hokage-sama..."
