Qingran the young monk let out a sigh of relief. He watched Jiang Yuyu's retreating back and sighed again.

Suddenly, Jiang Keyin jumped back. "My father is still here tomorrow, so I'll come find you again tomorrow. Surprised?"

Qingran the young monk: "..."

I'm so surprised, he thought, a bitter smile appearing on his face.

On the warship, everyone took in the scenery of Tianling Island.

Mu Zibai and Wenren Lingmeng stood at the bow of the ship. Wenren Qingyi, that clueless fellow, insisted on pulling Wenren Lingmeng aside.

Wenren Qingyi chattered endlessly while pulling Wenren Lingmeng along. Mu Zibai watched from the side, thinking, Indeed, I should find an opportunity to poison Wenren Qingyi until she becomes a vegetative state.

"Brother Mu, admiring the view?" Jiang Yuyu walked over and said, "We'll be setting off soon. It should take about one to two hours to arrive. Aren't our Great You warships magnificent?"

"Mm."

They were indeed magnificent, possessing the aura of an invincible army.

Looking at Jiang Yuyu before him, Mu Zibai thought that despite Jiang Yuyu's usual carefree demeanor, he was the future King Qi.

Furthermore, when Mu Zibai first touched him, he had a surprising seventy thousand points, twenty thousand more than the Crown Prince of the Dragon People. This indeed surprised Mu Zibai.

Trusting the System's judgment, Jiang Yuyu's status was not simple.

Perhaps it was because Jiang Yuyu was King Qi's only son, while Ao Ying Tian was the sixth son of Prince Guang.

Suddenly, Mu Zibai felt immense regret. He should have found an opportunity to interact with King Qi. He had been busy discussing matters and forgotten about it.

For a moment, he felt like he had missed out on a fortune.

"Sister Lingmeng, you're so beautiful." Jiang Keyin spotted Wenren Lingmeng and immediately ran over. She chatted with Wenren Lingmeng and her sister.

"Little sister Keyin is too kind," Wenren Lingmeng said with a slight smile.

"Hello, Sister Qingyi." Jiang Keyin greeted Wenren Qingyi. Jiang Keyin was a few months younger than Wenren Qingyi.

Being called "sister" by Jiang Keyin, Wenren Qingyi puffed out her chest, acting like a big sister. This address satisfied Wenren Qingyi's small vanity.

I'm a big sister now too.

"Sister, what were you just talking about? It sounded very interesting," Jiang Keyin asked curiously.

Before Wenren Lingmeng could reply, Wenren Qingyi blurted out, "We were talking about Dream of the Red Chamber, a wonderful story."

"Dream of the Red Chamber?" Jiang Keyin had never heard of it and looked confused.

Wenren Qingyi put on an air of worldly experience and said, "Little sister Keyin, you wouldn't know this, but my brother-in-law wrote it."

"Oh?" Jiang Keyin was curious.

Wenren Qingyi puffed out her chest and said proudly, "Even though my brother-in-law isn't much, he's very talented. He's a great scholar, writing poems and such with ease. Right, brother-in-law?"

Wenren Lingmeng: "..."

Mu Zibai: "..."

Quietly, I thought, I can't do that!

You can brag about yourself, I understand that, but please don't include me.

"Oh? Brother Mu is also a scholar?" Jiang Yuyu looked at Mu Zibai curiously. Indeed, Mu Zibai's slender appearance had a scholarly air.

"I'm alright. I've studied for a few years. I wouldn't call myself a scholar," Mu Zibai said modestly, attributing it to the five-thousand-year cultural heritage of Huaxia.

They chatted for a while. Mu Zibai spoke little, as Wenren Qingyi and Jiang Keyin did most of the talking. The two young girls were similar in age and shared common interests, so they got along very well.

Mu Zibai also had a rare opportunity to be close to Wenren Lingmeng. Wenren Lingmeng leaned on Mu Zibai's shoulder, eating the fruit he fed her.

It was very sweet, making others envious.

Jiang Yuyu, feeling lonely, was quite uncomfortable. He was the most awkward person there.

Especially watching Mu Zibai and Wenren Lingmeng flaunt their affection. He knew they were showing off, and he was just a third wheel, forced to eat dog food.

But why was he so pathetic? Why did he insist on staying here? Jiang Yuyu even suspected he was born with a masochistic streak.

He was clearly single, yet he liked watching them be lovey-dovey. It made him uncomfortable.

No, when we get back, I'll have a girl on each arm and show off in front of Mu Zibai.

However, seeing Wenren Lingmeng's beauty, he sighed softly. Forget it, I can't compare.

Wenren Qingyi, seeing her sister with Mu Zibai, felt uncomfortable, as if the person she liked most had been snatched away by Mu Zibai. It was a sort of...

Hatred of a wife being stolen?

Wenren Qingyi had slept with Wenren Lingmeng since childhood and they had barely been separated. Their relationship was the closest.

Now, Wenren Lingmeng spent all her time with Mu Zibai. Wenren Qingyi was still a child and naturally felt a little unwilling?

"Keyin, what fun things are there in the South Sea? Take me to see them," Wenren Qingyi asked curiously.

"There are so many fun things, I can't list them all at once. Anyway, there's still plenty of time. Tonight, let's watch the bonfire. It's on the beach," Jiang Keyin said with a smile.

"Okay." Wenren Qingyi nodded happily.

[Ding! Points +23]

Mu Zibai: "?"

Feeling a poke in his kidney, what kind of monster dared to poke his kidney!

It was naturally Wenren Qingyi, that little brat. Seeing the look Wenren Qingyi gave him, Mu Zibai became wary. This little brat, she wouldn't try to harvest his kidney, would she?

What kind of look was that? Winking and blinking, who could understand it.

"Brother-in-law, show off your talent." Wenren Qingyi whispered in Mu Zibai's ear.

Mu Zibai: "???"

Suddenly enlightened, he asked, "So, you mean I show off my talent, and you get to brag?"

"This is a great opportunity to show off. Ke Yin likes poetry, have her help you promote it, and maybe you can earn the title of a talented scholar." Wenren Qingyi whispered.

She put on an act of considering her brother-in-law's well-being, but Mu Zibai just couldn't understand. He said, "Why do you care so much about my affairs? Just tell me, what do you want?"

It wasn't that Mu Zibai didn't appreciate kindness, but he knew Wenren Qingyi too well. A weasel paying respects to a chicken meant no good intentions.

Wenren Qingyi gave an awkward laugh and said, "Nothing, I'm just genuinely looking out for brother-in-law."

"I don't believe you." Mu Zibai shook his head. This little girl had blown her cover; she definitely had ulterior motives. "Confess."

Wenren Qingyi pouted and said, "Sister said that you two will be sleeping together from now on, and I can't sleep with Sister anymore. I was thinking if I'm nice to brother-in-law, maybe I can sleep with Sister tonight?"

Mu Zibai: "No!"

Absolutely not. He still needed to grind for points. Not letting him grind points was like killing his parents; how could he agree?

"Brother-in-law, please let me sleep with Sister. Look how obedient I've been." Wenren Qingyi said pitifully.

"Be good, sleep alone." Mu Zibai patted Wenren Qingyi's little head.

Wenren Lingmeng also patted Wenren Qingyi's head and said comfortingly, "Be good, don't be silly."

Seeing Mu Zibai holding Wenren Lingmeng with his left arm and chatting happily with his thirteen-year-old younger sister-in-law on his right, Jiang Yuyu had only two words in his heart: beast, worse than a beast. What was the difference between him and a beast?

He then looked at his own sister and let out a long sigh.

"We're here."
