ng Hongchen was naturally very fond of Lanlan. After all, Lanlan was obedient, sweet, pure, and naïve—untouched by the world.
She was like a clear crystal, delicate and beautiful. As long as soone wasn't malicious, most people would like a girl like her.
ng Hongchen was a kind person by nature, and she was no exception.
But Lanlan had an older sister?
This surprised ng Hongchen a bit, as Lanlan rarely ntioned it and she didn't have any impression of her.
ng Hongchen examined Lan Fozi carefully. She was a heroic-looking girl, with a temperant and charm different from other girls.
But that long, deep blue hair of hers was the sa as Lanlan's.
ng Hongchen smiled and said, "Hello."
Lan Fozi also greeted her with a smile.
Next ca the real main event.
Jiang Nannan and Lan Fozi were easy to deal with, but Xue Di and Di Mingli were a different story.
Su Yu cleared his throat and introduced, "This is Xue'er, this is Mingli, both are my also woman, this is ng…"
Su Yu introduced both sides, sowhat guilty.
ng Hongchen looked at Su Yu with a strange expression. Still insisting these aren't your harem?
Waiting for here, huh?
A team of seven, six won and Su Yu, and all six were beautiful.
Among the six, three had an intimate relationship with Su Yu.
ng Hongchen didn't know what to say anymore.
She had always known her man couldn't sit still.
But she hadn't expected this hand to be played.
Could it be that even Lan Fozi and Jiang Nannan wouldn't be able to escape?
ng Hongchen secretly speculated.
As she thought about it, ng Hongchen looked at Su Yu with a strange expression. "Yu, you gave a surprise."
Finding two more, if that's not a surprise, what is?
How many won does Su Yu have now?
Besides her and Wang Dong'er, there was Zhang Lexuan, plus these two in front of her.
Just the ones she knew about made five.
As for whether there were others, she couldn't be sure.
This man's ability to attract won was simply too strong.
Su Yu just gave an embarrassed smile and didn't try to explain.
He knew his nature very well.
He was a loving person—no doubt about it.
ng Hongchen just rolled her eyes at Su Yu and started greeting Xue Di and Di Mingli.
ng Hongchen had a very good temperant and wouldn't get on bad terms with Su Yu's other won out of jealousy.
Unless soone deliberately provoked her.
Facing ng Hongchen's greeting, Xue Di just nodded lightly.
She was quite familiar with ng Hongchen.
After all, back at Shrek Academy, she'd heard plenty about ng Hongchen and Su Yu's night session.
That pair, when they got wild, really had no sha.
"You're ng Hongchen?"
Di Mingli stared at ng Hongchen, her beautiful eyes sizing her up.
ng Hongchen was very pretty, but not to the point of being a national beauty.
At least, compared to her and Xue Di, she was still a bit lacking.
Yet this not-so-eye-catching ng Hongchen could make Su Yu willing to risk everything against the Great Ruler rather than give her up.
During the previous mory sharing, Di Mingli saw part of what Su Yu had done.
So she was confused.
Is she worth it?
This woman isn't even that outstanding.
Is she worth Su Yu offending the Great Ruler for?
That's the Great Ruler, after all.
Di Mingli didn't know if she would ever get such treatnt, but she couldn't help but feel jealous.
Why should such an ordinary girl deserve this?
"You know ?" ng Hongchen asked, puzzled.
"Heard of you," Di Mingli said casually, still sizing her up.
"You don't seem that special."
ng Hongchen smiled faintly, "I am ordinary, not as dazzling as you, Miss Mingli."
"I wonder, how did you et Yu, Miss Mingli?"
ng Hongchen appeared calm.
She could feel the hostility coming from Di Mingli.
This beautiful, noble-looking girl had quite an opinion of her.
The reason was probably Yu.
She was just jealous, or maybe a bit sour because Yu treated her too well.
That's all.
With her experience with Wang Dong'er, ng Hongchen could easily see through it.
And this girl seed very proud, probably straightforward too.
Who writes their dislike all over their face at a first eting?
This girl was just as simple as Wang Dong'er.
Neither of them could hide anything inside.
Di Mingli lifted her chin, proudly saying, "We've known each other since childhood. I watched him grow up."
Su Yu's mouth twitched. Why did that sound so weird?
ng Hongchen's eyes flickered, glancing at Su Yu. Seeing he didn't refute it, her eyes flashed with cunning.
"So you and Yu are childhood sweethearts. I was mistaken."
"Bla Yu, he never ntioned it to ."
Wang Dong'er snickered, Xue Di's eyes showed a hint of amusent, and Su Yu rubbed his forehead, looking pained.
ng, you're getting sly too.
Sure enough, Di Mingli froze, looking angrily at Su Yu.
He'd never ntioned her?
How infuriating!
Did he not care about her?
Di Mingli was led astray, and Su Yu could feel her gaze becoming more hostile and aggrieved.
Su Yu's eye twitched. Great, now the firepower was aid at him.
But could he be blad?
Di Mingli's identity was special—if the God Realm hadn't sealed, he wouldn't dare bring her out.
How could he tell others about her?
It would expose his relationship with the soul beasts under the God Realm's nose.
With Su Yu's cautious nature, he'd never do that.
But now, Di Mingli suspected he didn't care about her—a pure misunderstanding.
Su Yu looked at ng Hongchen with a wounded expression.
ng Hongchen looked innocent, her icy blue eyes flashing with cunning.
Su Yu imdiately knew ng Hongchen had done it on purpose.
But on second thought, it wasn't a bad thing.
Better the firepower be on him than ng and Di Mingli having an all-out clash.
He'd just have to coax Di Mingli more.
No choice—since he'd opened this harem, it was up to him to keep the peace.
"Ahem, why don't we go inside and talk?"
Su Yu coughed.
"Hmph!"
Di Mingli snorted at Su Yu and walked off.
ng Hongchen covered her mouth and chuckled.
Su Yu rolled his eyes at her. "Aren't you coming?"
ng Hongchen giggled, and the other won walked ahead, all with teasing looks.
"That's what you get for having so many won—getting your couppance?"
Wang Dong'er sidled up to Su Yu, grinning.
Su Yu pinched her cheek. "You talk too much. Want to spank you?"
Wang Dong'er blushed, glanced around furtively, and pouted, "Bad guy."
She dashed off.
Su Yu shook his head and followed.
After arranging rooms for the newcors, Di Mingli stord into her room, sulking.
She couldn't help it—ng Hongchen's words were a critical hit.
She'd always prided herself on being Su Yu's childhood friend, but he'd never ntioned her. It hurt.
Why did she have hostility toward ng Hongchen and the others?
Wasn't it because of Su Yu?
But if Su Yu didn't care, then wasn't she just making a fool of herself?
Wasn't this just wishful thinking?
The more Di Mingli thought, the sadder she felt—she was heartbroken now.
Su Yu knew how serious it was and followed Di Mingli inside.
This ti, Di Mingli's problem had to be solved.
Otherwise, if they kept fighting, he'd be miserable.
A harem war was only truly painful when experienced firsthand.
If nothing else worked, he'd have to use his BS skills.
Watching Su Yu leave, Wang Dong'er sidled up to ng Hongchen and whispered, "Do you think Su Yu can coax Di Mingli?"
ng Hongchen replied indifferently, "Are you doubting Yu's ability to handle girls?"
"Did you forget how he reeled you in?"
Wang Dong'er's face darkened. Su Yu had her wrapped around his finger.
For all her feistiness, the mont Su Yu frowned, she'd behave.
One thing conquers another—Su Yu had her completely under control.
"ng Hongchen, if you don't drop it, we're not sisters."
Wang Dong'er gritted her teeth.
ng Hongchen just smiled.
Wang Dong'er glared at ng Hongchen. This woman was still so annoying.
But thinking of the even stronger Di Mingli, Wang Dong'er held back and whispered, "ng Hongchen, let's team up."
"Team up for what?"
ng Hongchen looked at her, puzzled.
Wang Dong'er said seriously, "You felt how strong Di Mingli is, right?"
"I can see she's hostile to all of us and wants to drive us away so she can have Su Yu to herself."
"How can we let that happen?"
"I finally…"
"You finally got Yu's approval, right?" ng Hongchen teased.
"ng Hongchen!"
Wang Dong'er gritted her teeth, poking at her sore spot.
"Alright, alright, I'll drop it. Go on."
It was just a joke—ng Hongchen didn't press further.
She and Wang Dong'er were already quite close.
Though Wang Dong'er always tried to compete with her for affection, she was just a silly butterfly—what tricks could she possibly have?
She'd asked Yu, and Yu said he liked Wang Dong'er's innocence and silliness.
Such a silly girl was no threat at all.
Wang Dong'er glared at ng Hongchen. "You heard it, Di Mingli and Su Yu are childhood sweethearts."
"Think about her status in Su Yu's heart."
"From the mont I t her, she's been causing trouble and getting jealous, but Su Yu's never said a harsh word to her."
"What kind of love is that do you know?"
"Don't you feel even a bit threatened?"
ng Hongchen frowned slightly, but thinking of Su Yu's personality, she relaxed.
"So… what do you want to do?"
"Team up."
Wang Dong'er puffed out her chest. "We can work together, deal with Di Mingli."
"We don't have to bully anyone, but we can't let her bully us either, right?"
"Together, we should be able to handle her."
ng Hongchen thought for a mont, then shook her head.
"No, Yu doesn't like that."
Wang Dong'er fell silent.
"But what if she keeps making trouble for us?"
ng Hongchen looked deeply at Wang Dong'er. "You should trust Yu—he won't let that happen."
"There's a limit to everything."
"You can compete for his affection, but Yu won't let any irreconcilable conflicts arise between us."
"If she bullies you, just go tell Yu and complain to him. Better yet, throw yourself into his arms and act cute—he'll like that."
ng Hongchen gave advice.
"Screw you. I'm not just a girl who knows how to act cute."
Wang Dong'er protested.
"Really?" ng Hongchen laughed.
"Of course!"
Wang Dong'er blushed but insisted.
ng Hongchen just smiled—her only tough spot was her mouth.
Seeing ng Hongchen teasing her, Wang Dong'er got more and more embarrassed, finally getting angry.
"You're still laughing?"
Wang Dong'er pounced on ng Hongchen, and the two wrestled.
anwhile, inside, Su Yu was comforting Di Mingli.
"What do you want?" Di Mingli sensed movent, refusing to turn around, her tone stiff.
"Ca to check on my Mingli."
Su Yu approached with a smile, trying to hug Di Mingli.
Di Mingli slapped his hand away coldly. "Don't touch ."
Su Yu paused. He saw her cold expression, her bright eyes glistening, but she held back her tears.
Su Yu's heart trembled, and he sighed. "Mingli, we grew up together. Don't you trust ?"
"Haven't I treated you well enough?"
Di Mingli didn't answer, just clenched her clothes even tighter, her knuckles turning white.
Su Yu sighed softly. "Silly girl, you overthink things sotis."
"I didn't ntion you to others for your good."
"Do I need to remind you what your identity is?"
"How could I tell anyone about you?"
"For your safety, I've always kept quiet."
Di Mingli was stunned, her voice trembling. "So, you an none of them know who I am?"
Su Yu rolled his eyes. "Of course. Except for Xue'er, who's seen you, no one knows."
"ng doesn't know. Lexuan doesn't know. Dong'er doesn't know."
"Mingli, in my heart, you'll always be the most important." (One of the most important.)
"How could I not care about you?"
Di Mingli's nose twitched. "If one day the Great Ruler told you to leave , would you defy them for ?"
Su Yu smiled helplessly. "So that's why you're acting weird today—you're jealous."
"Answer !"
Di Mingli demanded.
"Alright, alright."
Su Yu raised his hand, gently stroked Di Mingli's pretty face, and said seriously, "Mingli, no one can take you away from . No one."
