Chapter 559: Chapter 341: A Night to Remember

"Then what is it?"

Lu Mei raised her head, her red, swollen eyes staring at him.

"Zhang Yi, if you don’t have feelings for me, just say so."

"I, Lu Mei, am not the type to cling desperately."

"It’s not a rejection. It’s that I also have feelings for someone else. I don’t know if you can accept that,"

Zhang Yi said all in a rush.

The air froze once again.

Lu Mei was stunned.

She had imagined many possibilities, such as:

Zhang Yi wanted to focus on his path to godhood, waiting until he became a Powerful Divine Being before considering such things;

Zhang Yi’s feelings for her weren’t strong enough, that he didn’t like her;

That after going to Tianya Academy, he would need to focus on his studies...

But she never, ever imagined,

that Zhang Yi’s hesitation was actually for this reason.

"Someone else?"

"Who is it?!"

Lu Mei’s voice turned cold.

"Is it the Royal Princess Sofia from the Holy Roman Federation?"

"Or is it a girl from one of the academy teams in the Yanhuang Federation’s contingent?"

Lu Mei’s gaze was sharp.

Her eyes were locked on Zhang Yi, determined to pry an answer from him.

"It’s not them."

Zhang Yi shook his head.

"It’s a girl I knew from school, before I entered the University Alliance Training Camp."

"Did you two sleep together?"

"Is your relationship with her official?"

"..."

Lu Mei fired off questions like a machine gun, bombarding Zhang Yi.

And Zhang Yi, for his part, was completely shocked by her bold questions.

However, amidst his shock,

Zhang Yi failed to notice the nervousness in Lu Mei’s voice as she asked them.

Zhang Yi began to answer Lu Mei’s questions.

"I knew her in high school..."

"We never made our relationship official..."

"It’s just that during the final exams, she took the initiative to ask for my help, and then..."

As Zhang Yi explained everything bit by bit, Lu Mei gradually understood the situation.

And after learning about the other girl’s background, Lu Mei breathed a sigh of relief.

’I’d originally thought I was up against a major rival,’

’but it turns out to be just a nobody!’

As Zhang Yi finished speaking, silence gradually fell over them.

Although Zhang Yi didn’t say any more, his meaning was already obvious.

Lu Mei was still crying,

but her expression had shifted from sorrowful to complex.

"So,"

Lu Mei said slowly,

"it’s not that you don’t like me, but that there’s another girl in your heart."

"You just don’t know how to choose, is that right?"

Zhang Yi nodded.

"Then do you like me more than you like her?"

Hearing this question, Zhang Yi hesitated.

But he quickly gave a firm nod.

"Yes!"

Whether it was physical companionship or emotional companionship,

Lu Mei had undoubtedly given him more of both than Lin Aoxue!

Unexpectedly, upon hearing Zhang Yi’s sincere answer,

Lu Mei suddenly laughed!

Though her smile was mixed with tears, it was no longer sad.

"And here I thought it was some serious reason you were rejecting me."

Lu Mei wiped the tears from her face, her tone becoming lighter.

"If that’s the only reason you rejected me, then you’ve really underestimated me!"

Zhang Yi was stunned, unable to process what was happening.

He observed Lu Mei’s state carefully, then cautiously asked:

"You’re not angry anymore?"

"Angry?"

"Of course I’m angry!"

"Just not as angry as I was before!"

After wiping away her tears, Lu Mei reverted to her usual cool and decisive demeanor.

"What makes me even angrier is that you’d hesitate over something like this!"

"Now, I’m going to ask you some questions. You just need to answer yes or no,"

Lu Mei said domineeringly.

"I’ll ask you, have you spent more time with me?"

Lu Mei stared into Zhang Yi’s eyes and asked.

"Yes!"

"Do I understand you better?"

"Yes!"

"Then between her and me, do I occupy a larger part of your heart?"

"Yes!"

After these three questions, a wide smile bloomed on Lu Mei’s face.

Then, Lu Mei looked at Zhang Yi, a cunning glint in her eyes.

"Zhang Yi, do you have some kind of misunderstanding about us True God Clans?"

"And also, have you not properly looked into the marriage laws of the Blue Star Federation?"

"Misunderstanding?"

"Marriage laws?"

Zhang Yi asked, confused.

Seeing his confusion, Lu Mei began to explain slowly.

"The ancestors of our Lu Family, starting from my great-grandfather’s generation, have practiced polygamy."

"For example, besides my great-grandfather, I also had three great-grandmothers."

"These three great-grandmothers had a harmonious relationship with my great-grandfather. Each of them provided him with different kinds of support at different stages of his life."

"Together, they helped my great-grandfather lay the foundation for the Lu Family’s enterprise."

"In my grandfather’s generation, he also had two wives."

"As for my father’s generation, he only has my mother. But that’s because my mother’s personality and background are both very strong, so my father didn’t dare find a second wife."

"Of course, they also love each other very much,"

Lu Mei realized what she’d said and, afraid Zhang Yi might get the wrong idea, quickly added on.

After all, Lu Mei still didn’t know about Zhang Yi’s background.

Previously, whenever any instructor discussed Zhang Yi’s background, they always did so with him in private.

So, Lu Mei still thought Zhang Yi was just an exceptionally talented student from the Yanhuang Federation!

But it was precisely because of this misunderstanding

that Lu Mei felt even more reassured about Lin Aoxue.

After all, from what Zhang Yi had just said,

Lu Mei had learned that the family behind Lin Aoxue was merely that of a Weak Divine Being.

Even if she needed to ask for help and get resource support from the family behind Zhang Yi,

Lu Mei figured his family was, at most, a Middle-level Divine Family.
