Leaps and Bounds (1)

Ye City continues to develop rapidly, gradually becoming one of the most famous trade centers on the mainland.

In the midst of rapid development, people seem to have gradually forgotten Ye Lang's existence, and seem to have forgotten that they went crazy because of Ye Lang.

This was because, half a year later, Ye Lang had not appeared since entering Haoyue Lake, and almost no one had seen him, so naturally no one talked about him anymore.

People like to talk about mysterious things, but if something is so mysterious that there's absolutely no information about it, then there's simply no topic to discuss.

For the past six months, no one has known what Ye Lang has been doing inside. No one has ever gone in or out, which has kept the inside completely silent.

This situation seemed a bit strange to Ye Chengtian and his wife. It was quite normal for Ye Lang not to appear inside, because that's just the kind of person Ye Lang is; sometimes when he's doing something, he'll forget everything else.

Even if Ye Lang stayed inside for a year, they would only be curious and want to know what Ye Lang was up to that took so long.

But this is just curiosity!

What puzzled Ye Chengtian and his wife was that Ye Lanyu had managed to stay inside for half a year without ever showing up. This was strange, as everyone knew that Ye Lanyu was the kind of person who couldn't stand being impatient.

Although she also enjoys being with Ye Lang, she wouldn't stay with Ye Lang like this, never even stepping out of the gate, if Haoyue Lake had a gate at all.

Based on her personality, she'll probably stay inside for a while, and then go out to play for a bit.

Ye Chengtian and his wife believed that there must be something inside that fascinated Ye Lanyu, otherwise such a situation would never have occurred. As for the others, they felt they were all normal.

The Seventh Princess is the kind of person who can live peacefully anywhere. Even if there is no one inside and Ye Lang is not inside, she can stay inside for half a year without coming out. Not to mention that Ye Lang is still inside, she can naturally stay inside. Not to mention half a year, even decades would not be a problem.

As for Ye Zhiqin, that was beyond their understanding. However, they knew that Ye Zhiqin seemed to be the kind of person who could stay quietly in one place. In the past, their understanding of Ye Zhiqin was limited, and her presence was not very strong.

This very fact—her lack of presence—also indicates that she has always been very quiet!

What could have made Ye Lanyu so quiet?

Regarding this issue, some people in Ye City were also puzzled. These people were Ye Lanyu's relatives and friends. Ye Lanyu was much better at interpersonal relationships than Ye Lang and even better than the Seventh Princess. She had many close friends.

Most of these friends left Soaring Sky Empire together at the time. Because of their shared experiences, their relationship became even stronger, and they naturally cared more about each other.

They were all wondering what was in Haoyue Lake that made Ye Lanyu so quiet. Could it be because of Ye Lang?

Although the possibility is very low, it is not impossible. Everyone knows that Ye Lanyu is capable of doing anything for Ye Lang, including enduring hardship.

As parents, Ye Chengtian and his wife had also considered this possibility and felt that it was possible, but only a very, very small possibility.

Everyone felt that the most likely reason was Ye Lang, but not because Ye Lanyu was patient; it was because Ye Lang had something that interested Ye Lanyu.

When the answer was revealed, everyone felt that their idea was correct, and indeed it was so. However, the answer also surprised them greatly.

No, it should be said that I was shocked!!

They never imagined that less than a year later, Ye Lanyu would...

"Sister, work a little harder, and you'll soon become a master!" Ye Lang's voice rang out by the calm lake. Hearing this, Ye Lanyu really wanted to pinch Ye Lang's face hard.

"Try your best, Ye Lanyu!" At this moment, the Seventh Princess also spoke in a faint voice, seemingly indifferent and detached.

"You dare to talk back to me? You're the same way, you haven't broken through yet!!" Ye Lanyu looked at the Seventh Princess with annoyance. The Seventh Princess was not standing aside, but was working hard to "break through" with her.

That's why Ye Lanyu felt that the Seventh Princess's words were also very annoying, just like Ye Lang's!

"So, I'm trying!" the Seventh Princess said calmly.

"..."

Ye Lanyu was speechless. Fine, she'd better focus on breaking through. Once she did, she could do whatever she wanted, and she wouldn't be afraid of anything anymore!

Ye Lanyu fantasized about her future glory and was very excited!

"Sis, you look so lewd. Are you having sex?" Ye Lang asked again at this moment.

"Get lost!! I was just thinking about how to bully you guys in the future!! Once I break through, I can do whatever I want with you!!" Ye Lanyu glared at Ye Lang and said.

"You don't need to break through, and I won't dare to do anything to you. You can do whatever you want!" Ye Lang said casually, completely unconcerned.

That's right. Even if Ye Lanyu is completely incompetent, she can still bully Ye Lang however she wants, because Ye Lang dares not object.

"..." Ye Lanyu was silent for a while, and she realized that nothing had really changed.

At this moment, the Seventh Princess said again, "So what if you break through? I will definitely do it before you. The result will be the same."

"..."

Ye Lanyu realized that her main targets for bullying were Ye Lang and the Seventh Princess. Ye Lang was the same no matter how she changed, but the Seventh Princess always changed along with her, and even faster than her.

Doesn't this mean that in the end, I still won't get what I want, and it will all be the same?!

"Sister Lan Yu, I won't let you bully brother. If you don't work hard, you won't be able to beat me!" At this moment, a little girl jumped out and said.

In this Haoyue Lake, there is only one little girl, and that is Little Princess Ella. She seems to be more cheerful than before!

In the past, the Little Princess would have always hidden behind Ye Lang, watching everyone without saying a word. Now, at least she has spoken up and taken the initiative to talk.

Although it was still the same, she remained behind Ye Lang and did not come out!

Over the past six months, the Little Princess seems to have gotten used to following Ye Lang. Whenever there's nothing to do, she'll follow behind Ye Lang, finding a sense of security in his presence.

She had become somewhat familiar with Ye Lanyu and the others, and would occasionally exchange a few words with them. However, she would only speak when the topic of Ye Lang came up.
