Chapter 560: Chapter 341: A Night to Remember

And that was a high estimate from Lu Mei.

After all, there were only seven Powerful Divine Beings in the entire Blue Star Federation.

Compared to the Powerful Divine Beings, there were far more Middle-level Divine Families—hundreds of thousands of them!

But if you spread those hundreds of thousands across all the Star Realms controlled by the Blue Star Federation, the number suddenly seemed much smaller.

Spread them out among individual planets, and there wouldn’t be enough to go around, even if you counted every single True God.

Therefore, Lu Mei remained quite confident in her family’s background.

In Lu Mei’s judgment, Zhang Yi’s family was either a Weak Divine Being family or, like hers, a Middle-level Divine Family.

If his was a Weak Divine Being family, she would be able to help him with his career.

If it was a Middle-level Divine Family, a union between two powerful families would be even better!

However, since Lu Mei didn’t ask Zhang Yi about it at that moment, the misunderstanding was allowed to continue.

"Besides, you don’t actually think the Blue Star Federation has laws mandating monogamy, do you?"

"It doesn’t?"

Zhang Yi asked subconsciously.

Lu Mei couldn’t help but laugh. "Of course not."

"According to the Blue Star Federation laws, revised during the Late Stage of the First Year, as long as all parties consent, polygyny, polyandry, or even more complex unions are all permissible, provided they are voluntary!"

Then, Lu Mei added,

"The only issue is that dividing assets during a divorce can get very complicated."

"Every additional person means the assets have to be split one more way in a divorce."

"That’s why many True Gods are very cautious about marriage."

It was only after hearing Lu Mei’s explanation that Zhang Yi finally understood.

Because of his grandfather and father, Zhang Yi had assumed the Blue Star Federation’s marriage laws were the same as those in his previous life.

After all, it wasn’t as if he’d ever idly flipped through the marriage laws growing up.

"So, your father and your grandfather both only have one wife?"

Lu Mei asked tentatively, based on the reaction on Zhang Yi’s face.

"Yes."

Zhang Yi nodded.

"I only have one grandmother and one mother."

Hearing this, Lu Mei actually looked envious.

What a pity, though...

Lu Mei suddenly grabbed Zhang Yi’s hand.

"I’m not asking you to decide right now. Once you’ve worked through your feelings, we’ll have plenty of time to figure things out."

"Whether it’s Lin Aoxue or anyone else, I just hope that our bond is unbreakable!"

"So, we can take it slow!"

Zhang Yi felt the warmth of Lu Mei’s palm.

He looked at Lu Mei,

at this incredibly proud girl who was willing to lower herself only for him.

The turmoil in Zhang Yi’s heart vanished.

"Lu Mei."

Zhang Yi reached out with his other hand, enveloping hers completely.

"Thank you!"

"For what?"

The corners of Lu Mei’s mouth tilted up slightly.

"For being with me on this journey, for supporting me, for being willing to give me time..."

Zhang Yi said very seriously.

Lu Mei smiled, a truly genuine smile this time.

"Then tonight."

Lu Mei stood on her tiptoes and whispered softly in Zhang Yi’s ear:

"Do you need me to stay in your room?"

Zhang Yi didn’t answer with words, letting his actions speak for themselves.

...

The next morning, as sunlight streamed into the room.

When Lu Mei woke up, she found herself lying in Zhang Yi’s arms.

She looked up at Zhang Yi’s sleeping face, her eyes filled with contentment.

Although her body was still a little uncomfortable, her heart was more at ease than ever before.

Sensing the movement in his arms, Zhang Yi woke up as well.

Thanks to his Constitution as a Ninth Transformation Demigod, the arm underneath her wasn’t sore or numb at all. Instead, he only felt a profound softness.

He lowered his head to look.

Lu Mei was curled up in his arms like a gentle kitten.

At the same time, memories of the previous night surfaced in his mind.

"Good morning."

Lu Mei said softly.

"Morning."

Zhang Yi tried to pull his arm free from its soft resting place.

But the moment he moved his arm, the beauty in his embrace let out a soft, dissatisfied murmur.

Helpless, Zhang Yi had to abandon the attempt for now.

After a good while, it seemed she grew tired of being held.

Zhang Yi was finally able to withdraw his arm.

Zhang Yi reached out and gently tucked the strands of Lu Mei’s hair that had fallen across her cheek behind her ear.

"How is it, does it still hurt?"

Zhang Yi asked gently.

"A little, but it’s nothing serious,"

Lu Mei said honestly, a smile on her face.

(Censored.)

With that, Zhang Yi rolled over, ready to...

"Wait,"

Lu Mei suddenly called out.

"Let’s deal with this bedsheet first."

Lu Mei slipped out from under Zhang Yi.

She took the sheet from underneath them, the one with the crimson stain, and folded it away.

Only after they’d put on a new sheet did the two lie down again.

"This bore witness to our first time together."

"So I want to keep it."

Lu Mei looked at Zhang Yi, her eyes filled with love for him.

Seeing Lu Mei’s actions, Zhang Yi felt a surge of responsibility in his heart.

Zhang Yi pulled Lu Mei into his embrace again.

He said to her solemnly, his lips beside her ear:

"Don’t worry, I’ll take responsibility for you!"

"In that case, I get to be your first wife!"

"Your classmate, Lin Aoxue, will have to be your second wife."

"And I want to meet her this summer vacation."

"Deal!"

At this moment, Zhang Yi was completely willing to indulge her.

And after getting this promise, Lu Mei made no new demands.

Sensing that Lu Mei’s mood was quite good,

Zhang Yi started moving again, pinning Lu Mei under him.

"Hey, wait."

"We have to return to Blue Star this morning."

"So what?"

"What’s your hurry?"

...

Half an hour passed, and Zhang Yi was lying on the bed.

Lu Mei, meanwhile, had gone to the bathroom.

SPLASH!

It was the sound of running water.

Lu Mei returned to the room.

"Alright, alright, look at the time!"

Zhang Yi looked down and saw it was already 9:30 in the morning.

"Oh no, oh no."

"The chaperoning teachers from all the schools will come to pick us up at ten o’clock this morning."

"How is there only half an hour left?"

"It’s all your fault!"

Lu Mei looked at Zhang Yi.

After that, Zhang Yi and Lu Mei stopped playing around and got dressed.

Once dressed, Lu Mei reverted to her former self: poised, confident, and with the air of a mature older sister.

But now, there was an added hint of feminine charm in her features.

The way she walked was also a bit unnatural.

However, with the body of a Demigod, she was back to normal after just a few steps, and no one would be able to tell the difference.

"I’m leaving."

Lu Mei walked to the door and looked back at Zhang Yi.

"Keep in touch during summer vacation."

If it were before last night, Zhang Yi might have hesitated.

But after last night, Zhang Yi would never refuse again.

"I’ll send you my address. You’re welcome to come anytime."

Hearing Zhang Yi’s words, Lu Mei waved her hand.

Leaving him with only the sight of her back,

she walked out of his room and returned to her own.
