What! The Wives in My Dreams Are Real?

The next day, a violent crashing sound suddenly woke Ye Yu.

He got up and looked over, only to see that his door had already been reduced to powder on the ground.

Shi Tiange walked in with a cold expression, and behind her followed Ye Zhendong—with a dark bruised eye.

Yes, the bruise was clearly from being beaten.

But that was not important. What mattered was that Shi Tiange was obviously furious!

This left Ye Yu completely confused, so he asked cautiously,

"W-what happened? Why are you so angry?"

"You—what did you say to Qi Yuan yesterday? Why did she leave Xuanji Hall?"

As Shi Tiange spoke, divine power was already surging around her.

The pressure was so intense that it made goosebumps rise all over Ye Zhendong’s body.

Ye Yu still looked puzzled.

Then Shi Tiange explained what had just happened.

She had gone early in the morning to bring Qi Yuan some nourishing supplements, but instead found an empty room—along with all the items still inside.

And a letter left on the table.

The contents were brief. Qi Yuan said she was leaving for a period of time to continue her cultivation.

Leaving just like that for no reason—she must have been driven away by that good-for-nothing son.

And thus, the door-kicking incident occurred.

Deep down, Shi Tiange was truly, extremely satisfied with Qi Yuan.

There was no way she could just watch such a perfect daughter-in-law slip away!

Ye Yu needing time to deal with his feelings was fine.

But if he had driven her away—

Then this matter had become serious!

Seeing that his mother was truly enraged, Ye Yu did not dare to take it lightly and quickly said he would go ask her.

He turned and left, heading to a secluded place before activating the Cloud Nurturing Compass.

To be honest, this Dream Talent was extremely useful.

Especially when it came to locating Qi Yuan.

He could see her whereabouts anytime, anywhere.

It was far more efficient than a paired jade token.

In short, it was like a walking surveillance camera.

In the image, Qi Yuan was flying through the air, holding the divine techniques Ye Yu had given her last night and studying them.

It was clear that she was truly working hard on her cultivation.

Ye Yu thought for a moment, organized his words, and tentatively asked when she would return and why she had left.

Upon hearing his voice, Qi Yuan quickly responded.

She said that since she had just arrived in the God Realm, she wanted to go out alone, explore, and travel for a while. It would be beneficial for her future cultivation.

After some time, she might return to Xuanji Hall.

She also told Ye Yu not to worry—she was no longer a child and could take care of herself.

From the conversation, Ye Yu did not detect anything unusual from Qi Yuan.

So he closed the Cloud Nurturing Compass.

Then he began to think seriously.

Had last night’s conversation hurt Qi Yuan?

It should not have. Nothing had really been said.

Perhaps Qi Yuan also wanted some time apart—to distinguish between gratitude and feelings.

Thinking this, Ye Yu nodded in agreement.

That was fine. Some things had to be figured out eventually.

As for safety?

Ye Yu did not really think about it much.

After all, with the Cloud Nurturing Compass, if Qi Yuan encountered any danger she could not handle, the compass would notify him.

It would be fine.

Believing he had figured everything out, Ye Yu returned to his room and explained things to Shi Tiange.

He said that Qi Yuan had only gone out to travel and that there was no need to worry. She would return after some time.

Shi Tiange asked repeatedly whether Qi Yuan was truly not angry.

"No, no!"

Ye Yu waved his hands repeatedly.

After sending Shi Tiange and Ye Zhendong away, he planned to go back to sleep.

But in the next moment, his communication stone lit up.

It was Cui Yanshui.

The message was simple and direct.

"Come to the Cui family to see me."

Only then did Ye Yu remember that this matter still existed.

She was probably waiting for him to go over and cancel the engagement.

Fine. It was better to settle everything at once.

Ye Yu immediately got up and headed toward the Cui family.

Shi Tiange still felt somewhat uneasy.

Qi Yuan had just entered the New God Realm and was going out alone—how could that not be worrying?

So she immediately summoned a trusted subordinate and ordered them to investigate Qi Yuan’s whereabouts and secretly protect her.

That was the daughter-in-law she had personally chosen—nothing could be allowed to happen to her!

As for Cui Yanshui—

That could be dealt with later. As long as her son was charming enough, Shi Tiange did not mind having more than one.

But no matter what choice Cui Yanshui made, Xuanji Hall’s protection over the Cui family would continue.

That was her way of giving an explanation to both the Cui family and her friend.

A few hours later.

Ye Yu arrived alone at the Cui family.

By now, the rebuilt Cui family had regained its former grandeur.

Though their numbers had diminished, each member was full of spirit.

It was clear that Cui Yanshui had completely taken control of the family and had reunited their scattered morale.

When members of the Cui family branches saw Ye Yu arrive,

they all cupped their fists in greeting.

Ye Yu returned each greeting, then made his way into the main hall.

There, he found Cui Yanshui, whom he had not seen for many days.

Looking at the woman seated in the position of honor, radiating nobility,

Ye Yu felt a surge of complicated emotions and once again recalled the scene after the Cui family’s downfall.

Back then, after killing Gu Yuanzhen, he had tentatively asked Cui Yanshui when she had started liking him.

That was not a baseless guess.

It had been confirmed through many events.

For example, she had been hiding well, but after Cui Hongyuan took Ye Yu away, she had voluntarily stepped into danger.

That had to be genuine feeling.

Ye Yu’s principle was that he would never let down any woman who liked him.

Coupled with the fact that they were childhood friends, practically growing up together, and already had an engagement—

if they were to marry, it would be perfectly justified.

But when faced with his question, Cui Yanshui had only sneered and asked if he had gone mad.

A woman saying the opposite of what she meant was normal.

Ye Yu had not been too surprised.

Given Cui Yanshui’s cold personality, being asked so directly would naturally make her unwilling to admit it.

So Ye Yu did not press further, planning to wait until she came to him.

But after waiting for a long time, Cui Yanshui never contacted him again.

This made Ye Yu suspect that she might have changed her mind.

Not that she had fallen for someone else—

but that she might have decided to devote her entire life to the Cui family and no longer marry out.

That was the most likely explanation.

Otherwise, if she truly liked him, the two of them would have already married under Shi Tiange’s urging. Why would it have dragged on until now?
