Chapter 177 Kurenai Sunset, the Morning Turmoil!
As dawn broke, the soft sound of maids sweeping could be heard in the courtyard.
Inside the tent, the warmth remained.
Kurenai slowly opened her eyes, her consciousness still somewhat hazy from just waking up.
She shifted her body and realized that she was being held in her husband's arms.
The tenderness and excitement of last night still seem to be right before my eyes, and my cheeks, which were as red as the setting sun, can't help but blush.
She gently turned her head, and her husband's brows relaxed slightly. His usually sharp eyes were less stern and more gentle and calm.
Perhaps her movements startled the other party, for Mitsufumi's eyelashes trembled and she slowly opened her eyes.
Looking at the beauty in his arms, his eyes were full of tenderness, and a lazy smile curled at the corners of his lips: "Hong, you're awake!"
Kurenai gave a soft "hmm," then snuggled closer to him, a little embarrassed, her hair brushing against his chest and tickling him.
Uchiha Mitsunori chuckled softly, tightening his arms around her completely.
"Sleep a little longer? It's still early outside... How about... we... do it again?"
Upon hearing this, Kurenai blushed deeply and said, "No... Husband... I need to go and pay my respects to Sister Sara and the others later. I don't know if the children are awake yet."
In this large family, she felt a bit reserved, like a newcomer, and was thinking about how to observe etiquette.
"Don't rush to greet me. The children are being watched by the weasel; nothing will happen."
Uchiha Mitsunori's fingers traced her earlobe... chin... neck... and continued downwards.
"Hong, it's rare to have a morning like this. Stay with me a little longer."
Kurenai trembled slightly, then stopped struggling and nestled obediently in his arms.
Listening to each other's heartbeats, the air inside the tent seemed to become thick and sweet.
Uchiha Mitsunori lowered his head and placed a kiss on her forehead, then on the tip of her nose, and finally on her lips.
This kiss was different from the passionate one last night; it carried the languidness and delicacy of the morning, so tender it made my heart tremble.
Kurenai closed her eyes slightly and responded gently to him, her fingers unconsciously gripping the wedding quilt.
Their breathing quickened, and Sanfeng's voice carried a hint of amusement: "Hong...it seems...you don't...want to get up either!"
Yuhi Kurenai's cheeks flushed even redder. She reached out and gently punched him, but he took her hand and pressed it against his chest.
He held her hand, feeling his own steady, strong heartbeat: "Listen, it's telling you that I want to stay with you a little longer."
Just then, the sound of several children making noise came from outside the door.
Then, Itachi called out gently, "Father, Mother, breakfast is ready. Your younger siblings are waiting for you."
The two exchanged a glance, and Sanfeng sighed helplessly, then pecked her lips again: "Well, it seems our time alone has been interrupted by the little ones."
Kurenai smiled and nodded, trying to get up, but was pulled back into Mitsumine's arms.
He whispered in her ear, "I'll come to see you again tonight."
The warm breath made her ears burn, and she could only nod with a blush on her face.
Uchiha Mitsunori then released her, got up to take her clothes from the side, and gently straightened her collar.
Kurenai quickly got up and helped him fasten his belt, their movements full of the tacit understanding and tenderness of newlyweds.
When the two stepped out of the bedroom, the morning light had already filled the courtyard.
Itachi Uchiha was holding Shion's hand, standing under the corridor waiting for them. Bai Qi and Xing Chi were chasing and playing on the lawn not far away. Kikyo, Karin, and Sasuke were sitting on a stone bench, holding pastries that had just been brought by a maid.
Seeing them come out, they all greeted them with smiles: "Father!"
Uchiha Mitsunori, holding Kurenai Yuhi's hand, walked towards the children, his face full of gentle smiles.
Looking at the lively scene before her and feeling the warmth from her palms, Kurenai felt a sense of peace in her heart.
The group arrived at the restaurant chatting and laughing, where Queen Sara, Tsunade, Mikoto Uchiha, Ami Uchiha, Chie Yuki, and Emi Uzumaki were already sitting at the table waiting for them.
Mei Terumi had also arrived early and was chatting quietly with Megumi Uzumaki.
Seeing Uchiha Mitsunori and Kurenai enter, Queen Sara was the first to stand up, smiling and waving, "Husband, come and sit down, breakfast is just made and it's still warm."
Xue Qianhui quickly pulled out the empty seat next to her and smiled at Yuhi Hong, "Hong sister, come sit here with me. I specially asked the kitchen to save some sweet porridge for you. You were tired last night, so drink something sweet to refresh yourself."
Kurenai quickly thanked her and sat down next to Yukichie.
Mei Terumi also came over and handed over a pair of clean chopsticks: "Kurenai, Mitsumine's energy is more like that of an animal. You probably didn't sleep well last night. I'll go back to your room with you to catch up on your sleep later. Sara and the others won't say anything."
"Thank you, Sister Ming." Kurenai felt a warmth in her heart, and most of her previous restraint dissipated.
The maids pulled out a chair for Mitsuhine, and Tsunade said with a serious tone, "Mitsuhine, last night I had the Anbu investigate some information about the Akatsuki. They've been active not only in Amegakure recently, but they've also been in contact with rogue ninja from various countries. They dared to cause trouble this time, perhaps because they have nothing to fear."
Queen Sara gently tugged at Tsunade's sleeve, smiling as she advised, "Tsunade-neechan, don't worry, Mitsumine has his own plans. However, the Akatsuki members are cunning, so don't act rashly."
Uzumaki Megumi's gaze fell on Mitsumine, her tone full of concern: "Mitsumine, I've heard that all the Akatsuki members are S-rank rogue ninjas, and their strength should not be underestimated. When you go, be sure to bring plenty of ANBU with you, and don't be careless."
Looking at the princesses, they chatted amongst themselves, their words full of concern.
Uchiha Mitsunori listened with a warm feeling in his eyes.
He smiled and said to everyone, "Thank you for your concern, I know what I'm doing. If they weren't useful, I would have wiped them out long ago."
He paused, then looked at Mei Terumi and Kurenai Yuhi: "Mei, Kurenai, you've just married into this family, so you still need time to adjust to things at home. You don't need to worry about the Akatsuki; just stay home and spend time with the children."
Mei Terumi shook her head, her eyes filled with determination: "Husband, although I am not as strong as Tsunade, I am not weak either. And I also want to see just how capable the person who dares to ruin our wedding really is."
Kurenai Yuhi nodded in agreement: "I am skilled in illusion magic, and my illusion magic might be able to restrain them. Mitsumine, let us join you too. We are not only your queens, but also your partners who can fight alongside you."
Looking at their determined eyes, Uchiha Mitsunori said, "Above Kage level is Super Kage level. Super Kage level possesses the strength to crush the Kage level of any village. The leader of Akatsuki is Super Kage level. I can take you there to broaden your horizons, but you must obey my commands and not act on your own."
"My husband, you can rest assured!"
