In the morning, Xia Yu drove a bus and sent Yu Liang and others to the airport.
“Have a child early,” Yu Liang said, holding Xia Yu’s hand. “You can have as many as you want with Yaoyao—just give the extra ones to me.”
“What??” Xia Yu looked at Yu Liang in confusion.
“Hahaha, I’m serious,” Yu Liang said earnestly. “That girl Ningmeng won’t even look for a boyfriend, let alone have children. If you have one, you can adopt one to Ningmeng. At least our Yu family won’t become extinct.”
“You can discuss this with Yaoyao,” Xia Yu replied without objection.
“Can’t even handle your own wife?” Yu Liang frowned.
“Can’t even handle your own granddaughter?” Xia Yu responded in the same sentence structure.
Yu Liang was speechless.
After saying goodbye to Xia Yu, they entered the airport.
Xia Yu returned home, intending to discuss the matter of having children with An Siyao and the other two women, but found the bedroom empty.
He went to the front part of the palace and entered the office, finding Zhu Mei.
The female scribe voluntarily left the room.
Holding Zhu Mei in his arms, Xia Yu asked, “Back to work the day after the wedding?”
“I have no choice; the economy here is in a mess,” Zhu Mei looked at Xia Yu expectantly. “Will you help me?”
“I’d better not,” Xia Yu refused immediately. He touched his chin thoughtfully. “However, there’s someone who can help you.”
“Who is it?” Zhu Mei asked eagerly, as she didn’t want to be busy with affairs all day.
“A little girl named Tina.” Xia Yu gave Tina’s contact information to Zhu Mei.
“Is she also one of your conquests?” Zhu Mei asked, leaning on Xia Yu.
“Don’t be vague where you shouldn’t!” Xia Yu tapped Zhu Mei’s head. “She’s a business genius.”
“From District Two? Seems a bit problematic. Invite her with a noble title then,” Zhu Mei plotted.
Although District Fourteen wasn’t strong, it had nobles, and noble titles were good leverage for attracting talents.
“She has her grandmother in prison. If you can help her, she definitely won’t refuse,” Xia Yu explained the strategy.
After lounging for a while, Zhu Mei self-disciplinedly returned to the desk to handle affairs.
“Where are Xiangxiang and Yaoyao?” Xia Yu asked.
“They should be in the garden,” Zhu Mei wasn’t sure.
Leaving the office, Xia Yu went to the back garden. In the pavilion, he saw Xu Youxiang, An Siyao, Liu Manman, Wen Ziying, and You Xue.
Liu Manman and You Xue were normal, but Wen Ziying’s presence surprised Xia Yu slightly.
“Shouldn’t you be in class? Why don’t you go back?” Xia Yu wanted to spend time with An Siyao and the other two women.
“Do I still need to attend class?” Liu Manman said domineeringly.
“I’m now one of the few simultaneous interpreters in the world. Do you think the school dares to fire me?” Wen Ziying answered disdainfully.
Only You Xue seemed a bit nervous: “I… Well, I just don’t want to attend class!”
Seeing the determination of the three, Xia Yu asked again, “How long are you planning to stay here?”
“I’ll leave when something comes up,” Liu Manman replied.
Her meaning was clear: she would stay here if there was nothing going on.
“I’ll leave when I have work,” Wen Ziying meant the same.
“I’ll play for a week… Oh, by the way, why don’t you enroll me here, Brother?” You Xue looked at Xia Yu with anticipation.
Xia Yu thought for a moment. This proposal seemed feasible. He was also worried about leaving You Xue alone in District One.
“You can ask your Meimei later,” Xia Yu replied.
“Okay!” You Xue was delighted.
Xia Yu sat down in the pavilion, and the group ate snacks and chatted.
You Xue curiously looked at Wen Ziying: “Sister Ziying, are you very close to my brother?”
You Xue often saw Liu Manman and knew she had a special relationship with her brother, but she had never seen Wen Ziying before.
“Old friends. We often discussed novels together and even slept on the same bed,” Wen Ziying smiled ambiguously at Xia Yu.
After a year, she had already guessed that Xia Yu was the imposter.
“Cough, cough, cough,” Xia Yu reminded Wen Ziying. There were children around, so she shouldn’t mention sensitive topics.
Wen Ziying had self-restraint and half-truthfully responded to You Xue’s questions.
After finishing the snacks, Xia Yu stood up and told An Siyao and Xu Youxiang that he had something to do and would come back in the evening.
He found an empty room and took out three star fragments.
These three star fragments were obtained from An Siyao, Zhu Mei, and Xu Youxiang on their wedding night.
Carrying a suitcase full of gems, Xia Yu used these three fragments to return to Earth.
Using money he had previously tricked from Xiao Ningqiuer to buy a ticket, Xia Yu took a bus back to his long-missed home.
His body was different from before, and no one could recognize him. He found the two elderly people and pretended to be a ‘good friend’ of Xia Yu, saying that ‘Xia Yu’ had gotten into trouble and could only stay abroad, unable to return home. He gave the suitcase full of gems to the elderly couple, saying it was left by ‘Xia Yu.’
Hearing that ‘Xia Yu’ was happy and prosperous abroad, the elderly couple felt relieved.
Xia Yu also left Xiao Ningqiuer’s phone number, telling them to call this number if they needed anything.
After finishing all the instructions, he left home and went to the cafe where he had previously arranged to meet Xiao Ningqiuer.
He handed a notebook to Xiao Ningqiuer. Inside were all the songs sung by Da Ningqiuer and the music he had composed.
Xiao Ningqiuer cherished it like a treasure. Xia Yu entrusted her to take good care of his family.
In the evening, the energy of the three star fragments was exhausted, and Xia Yu returned to the palace.
Letting out a yawn, Xia Yu took a shower and entered the bedroom.
“My beloved concubines, your king has arrived!”
