You Two Must Be Happy!

"Sister-in-law, do you have any areas you're particularly skilled in?"

After hitting a wall multiple times, Zhou Yan looked troubled, unable to think of any other suitable jobs for the moment.

"Hmm..."

Long Yue pondered, then began counting on her fingers:

"I've mastered countless immortal techniques from various sects, I'm skilled in artifact refining and alchemy, I've also done considerable research into formations, I know how to tame immortal beasts, and I'm especially adept at dealing with all sorts of demonic and evil beasts. I also have some knowledge of the path of slaughter. Do these count?"

Zhou Yan: "..."

Lin Fan: "..."

Listening to Long Yue's self-description, Zhou Yan and Lin Fan both fell silent.

Zhou Yan turned to Lin Fan with a look of astonishment, his expression seeming to ask, "What is sister-in-law talking about?"

"Hehehe, she's just joking," Lin Fan said with an awkward chuckle, brushing it off.

Long Yue frowned slightly, glaring at him with displeasure. She was telling the truth; she was genuinely skilled in all sorts of fields!

"Then, sister-in-law... doesn't she have any particularly specialized areas?" Zhou Yan whispered, leaning closer to Lin Fan.

Lin Fan turned to look at Long Yue, thinking hard for a long time, but couldn't utter a word. Back on the Immortal-Demon Continent, with her Immortal Emperor cultivation, she was capable of anything. Her strengths and advantages were so numerous that a resume couldn't possibly fit them all. But unfortunately, this was Blue Star... With her cultivation lost, she was merely a mortal here. Without spiritual power, she was like the most skilled craftsman who had lost both arms, unable to display her talents.

After a moment of silence, Lin Fan quietly asked Zhou Yan, "Your sister-in-law is quite a big eater. Does that count as a special skill?"

Zhou Yan: "..."

Zhou Yan fell silent. In that moment, he finally understood why Lin Fan had specifically asked him to help. Given sister-in-law's situation, finding a job truly wasn't easy...

"Lin Fan, sister-in-law's situation is a bit special, so there aren't many jobs that would suit her."

"But thankfully, sister-in-law is very beautiful. How about we try letting her work as a hostess?"

"I have a friend who owns a high-end restaurant. With sister-in-law's beauty, even without much education or experience, it wouldn't be a problem at all."

Zhou Yan pulled Lin Fan to a corner of the living room and whispered his suggestion.

Lin Fan pondered for a moment, glanced at Long Yue sitting beside them, hesitated, and then shook his head.

"No!"

"Why not?"

Zhou Yan asked, confused. He followed Lin Fan's gaze to Long Yue and suddenly understood.

"Oh~ you brat, you're selfish!"

"But as a man, I understand you completely."

With that, Zhou Yan smiled knowingly and nodded to himself. Men, after all, have their selfish desires. Just imagine, if you had a wife as beautiful as a celestial being, would you bear to let her work as a hostess, serving others? He wouldn't either!

Lin Fan remained silent, tacitly admitting Zhou Yan's point. To be honest, he did have a tiny bit of selfishness in his heart... Of course, on the other hand, he mainly felt that as an Empress, Long Yue wouldn't be suited for a job serving others, something she had already mentioned when they discussed her finding work. If she couldn't work in the service industry, couldn't have education requirements, and didn't need technical skills, then the question was, did such a job even exist in this world? It seemed there was indeed one!

"Lin Fan, I've thought about it carefully. The only job that might suit sister-in-law is factory work..."

After repeated consideration, Zhou Yan could only arrive at this conclusion. Factory work was arguably the job with the lowest barrier to entry in the world today. They took anyone; it didn't involve serving others, had no educational requirements, and didn't need technical skills. Most positions just required having hands.

"No! Absolutely not!"

Lin Fan rejected it immediately without hesitation. He knew better than anyone what a factory was like. It wasn't a place for people! When he was younger, to earn money for himself, he'd looked for jobs every winter and summer break. Once, he followed others into a factory and experienced work that was hellish beyond anything he'd known before! The assembly line speed got faster and faster, working twelve hours a day with almost no breaks!

Even though he was extremely tough and resilient back then, he only lasted a month before packing up and running away. How could Long Yue, with her delicate and fragile body, possibly last any longer?

She'd probably be crying to go home on her very first day at the factory…

Just as Lin Fan and Zhou Yan were secretly discussing, they didn't realize Long Yue had already quietly come up behind them and overheard their conversation.

"Factory? What is that place? Can I go?"

Long Yue poked her head over, her pretty face full of curiosity.

"No! Going to the factory isn't as simple as you think."

Lin Fan refused sternly without hesitation, grabbing Long Yue's shoulders with a look of utmost seriousness.

"That place is notorious for its deadly assembly lines and dark, sunless workshops. It's a place that devours people whole without spitting out bones! It's far more terrifying than the Demon Realm!"

"Once you enter the factory, it will slowly drain your spirit, turning you into a numb, walking corpse!"

"Th-that terrifying…?!"

Long Yue was startled, her face draining of color.

Judging by the Demon Supreme's serious expression, he didn't seem to be joking.

This was the first time she had ever heard of a place in the mortal realm that was even more terrifying than the Demon Realm…

Rather than a factory, it sounded more like a place where demonic cultivators refined people…

"Yanzi, your sister-in-law grew up spoiled. She's delicate and tender-skinned; she can't handle hardship. She absolutely won't be able to handle the factory."

After dissuading Long Yue, Lin Fan once again quietly rejected Zhou Yan's suggestion.

"Spoiled…"

Zhou Yan carefully sized up Long Yue, observing her ethereal aura and beautiful skin and face. He looked suspicious, then glanced back at Lin Fan beside him.

Connecting Lin Fan's words, he vaguely sensed something was amiss!

His sister-in-law was so beautiful, with such smooth and delicate skin, she didn't look like a child from an ordinary family at all…

She had never attended school, never worked, and was completely clueless about electronic products. All these clues pointed to only one answer!

His sister-in-law was a pampered young lady from a prestigious noble family!!

That's right! It must be like this!

His sister-in-law must be someone with very strict upbringing, whose parents' controlling nature forbade her from leaving the house or interacting with others, forcing her to stay home all day. This would explain why she never attended school, didn't understand modern electronic devices, yet possessed such a perfect temperament and cultivation!

She was like a caged bird, yearning for freedom, and one day she met his brother Lin Fan, falling deeply in love with him!

Lin Fan secretly took her away from her parents' home, and the two, disregarding everything, embarked on a runaway journey together!

For their future survival, Lin Fan had to borrow money from him, and his sister-in-law also had to find a job to support their family!

Everything connected!

It was logical! Extremely logical!

What a great and free love this was!

Understanding everything, Zhou Yan was so moved that tears streamed down his face. He solemnly patted Lin Fan's shoulder.

"Brother! I understand everything!"

"Don't worry, I'll definitely find a good job to introduce to my sister-in-law!"

"Also, I wish you two happiness!"

Long Yue: "…"

Lin Fan: "…"

Looking at Zhou Yan, who had suddenly burst into tears on his own, Long Yue and Lin Fan exchanged bewildered glances.

Why was this guy suddenly crying…

What exactly did he understand?
