An hour later,

under the dual attack of delicious food and Ye Yu's persuasive words,

Lan Lianyan was completely convinced.

According to Ye Yu's explanation,

there were many parallel worlds.

In each parallel world, Ye Yu had separate memories.

Therefore, he had no idea he had partners.

When he encountered someone he liked, it was only natural for him to feel drawn to them.

And when the parallel worlds shattered,

those memories would involuntarily resurface.

This was why Ye Yu had memories of Lan Lianyan.

In fact,

including Zhu Diezhen and other partners from parallel worlds,

they weren't wrong at all.

They all genuinely loved Ye Yu.

But in this world,

after the memories were restored, could one deny those feelings?

After a round of emotional manipulation,

Lan Lianyan felt dizzy with confusion.

Even under Ye Yu's "sincere" gaze,

she said, “If that's the case, it doesn’t seem wrong.”

Seeing that she had been thoroughly convinced,

Ye Yu couldn’t help but sigh in relief.

Successfully won over one person!

Lan Lianyan gently leaned against Ye Yu's shoulder,

her arms tightly wrapped around his.

In truth, she had never fully understood what parallel worlds were about.

But that didn't matter.

What was important was that

Ye Yu was still alive,

and she could be by his side.

That was enough.

...

Meanwhile,

inside the spirit vessel,

after Zhu Diezhen returned,

she increasingly felt something was off.

She paced back and forth on the deck,

glancing outside from time to time,

muttering, “Why hasn't my husband returned yet?

Could he have been taken away by that woman?”

Su Yao was sitting nearby,

unable to resist laughing, “Sister Zhu, why don't you sit down and take a break?

Ye Yu will definitely return when it's time.”

Since learning that Zhu Diezhen, like herself,

had also met and fallen for Ye Yu in the same way,

Su Yao had started calling her “sister.”

It was reasonable and fitting!

Zhu Diezhen couldn’t help but sigh.

Take a break?

There were other women vying for Ye Yu!

How could she sit still?

If it weren’t for not wanting to give Ye Yu the impression that she was disobedient,

Zhu Diezhen might have wanted to go look for them right now.

Sigh.

First, there was Zuo Yingchun,

and now another woman of unknown origins had appeared.

The key was that both of them were as beautiful as herself.

This left Zhu Diezhen feeling a sense of crisis.

She kept pondering

what she should do.

A woman’s sixth sense told her

that Ye Yu likely had more than just these few beauties.

There might be even more.

Zhu Diezhen was afraid that one day, Ye Yu would be completely taken away by someone else.

If that happened, she wouldn’t have anywhere to cry.

Sigh.

What should she do?

Zhu Diezhen felt very melancholic.

Suddenly, she noticed Su Yao sitting beside her.

She couldn’t help but widen her eyes,

an idea coming to her mind.

To be fair,

Su Yao’s beauty could definitely be described as otherworldly.

Moreover, she had a unique charm.

Whenever one saw her,

there was always a sense of tranquility.

Even though Zhu Diezhen was a woman,

she found herself deeply attracted to her.

Even if one did not pursue her romantically, one could still capture the hearts of both men and women.

Zhu Diezhen quickly approached,

sitting beside Su Yao.

With a beaming smile, she said, “Sister, can I discuss something with you?”

The sudden transition from melancholy to excitement

took Su Yao by surprise.

She instinctively leaned back,

looking at Zhu Diezhen in confusion.

“Um, what’s on your mind?”

“Good, straightforward!

Then I won’t beat around the bush.

Tell me, is my husband handsome?”

Zhu Diezhen’s question

left Su Yao even more bewildered.

Who asks such things?

You’re really quite bold!

Su Yao felt speechless and could only smile to cover her embarrassment.

“Sister, why are you suddenly asking this?”

Zhu Diezhen continued to get straight to the point.

“What’s wrong with asking this? I actually think that you and my husband make a great couple.

You really are a match made in heaven!

Sister, if you just give me a nod of approval,

I’ll immediately send my husband over to you!”

Zhu Diezhen's idea was simple.

She thought that perhaps she couldn’t keep Ye Yu’s heart alone.

But with the power of two, things might be different.

She had previously heard about the imperial harem in the human realm.

It often had several favored concubines who worked together to win the emperor's heart.

This way, the emperor would revolve around them.

This inspired Zhu Diezhen.

Exactly!

Since they could team up,

she could also find someone to form an alliance with.

Together, they could win Ye Yu’s heart!

Su Yao was a great candidate.

Not only was she stunning,

but Zhu Diezhen also felt very comfortable around her.

They hit it off instantly.

If they could join forces with Su Yao,

Zhu Diezhen was more than willing.

However,

her proposal was too novel.

It completely stunned Su Yao.

Heavens!

What kind of tiger-wolf words are these?

She had seen people promoting artifacts, and even sects,

but never anyone promoting a husband.

Zhu Diezhen, are you really this altruistic and benevolent?

They had only known each other for a few days!

You’re being a bit overly generous!

Wait a minute.

It’s impossible for such a thing to come out of nowhere.

This could very well be a test.

Upon considering this possibility,

Su Yao suddenly felt a wave of panic.

She quickly replied, “Sister, please don’t joke around.

Why would I want your husband?”

Zhu Diezhen responded seriously, “Sister, I’m really not joking.

If you truly don’t believe me, I can swear to the heavens!

I’ve come to understand.

Instead of letting an outsider take my husband away,

why not let us sisters work together to claim him?”

Looking at her earnest expression,

it seemed she wasn’t faking it.

Su Yao was nearly going crazy.

No way, no way?

Is this really how things can work now?

This is too outrageous!

Seeing that Su Yao didn’t respond,

Zhu Diezhen grew anxious,

thinking she was unwilling.

She immediately clasped her hands together and said, “Sister, please consider it as me asking for your help.

My husband, Ye Yu, is handsome and powerful.

Being with him is definitely not a loss for you!

Just consider it a favor for me.

How about it?”

Su Yao's expression turned awkward.

Originally, she had not wanted Ye Yu to reveal Zhu Diezhen's true feelings

out of fear of causing trouble.

But unexpectedly,

the situation had completely flipped.

Now, Zhu Diezhen was proactively asking her to be Ye Yu’s partner.

What kind of situation was this?

After pondering for a while,

Su Yao ultimately decided to “reluctantly” agree to help Zhu Diezhen with this favor.

Upon receiving this answer,

Zhu Diezhen was overjoyed.

She immediately reached out to embrace Su Yao.

“Thank you so much.

Sister won’t let you suffer any losses.

Whenever you want something,

sister will give it to you.

Wait, what’s this? Your fragrance is the same as my husband’s?”

Upon hearing this,

Su Yao trembled all over.

The same fragrance?

Of course!

They had just spent the entire afternoon writing calligraphy together,

so it was natural to pick up some scent.
