The dean's office, which usually doesn't see many people, was unusually lively at this moment.
Yan Shaozhe was handling academy affairs inside, was also somewhat surprised.
" Dean Yan, my older sister is getting married in a few days, so I'd like to go back with Brother Yu to visit her. That's why I'm asking for leave today."
"Are you asking for leave?" Yan Shaozhe looked at Luo Yan standing in front of him, still somewhat taken aback.
"Actually, you didn't need to tell me. You could have just gone with Cao Yu. After all, he's a member of the Sea God Pavilion now, and I can't control him anymore."
As he spoke Yan Shaozhe couldn't help but laugh.
"Really? Dean Yan, I'll go find Brother Yu right now!"
"Go on, go on, enjoy your time together, and be careful on your journey." Yan Shaozhe waved with a smile, then lowered his head to continue handling academy affairs.
Goodbye, Dean Yan!
"Goodbye." Yan Shaozhe smiled, thinking to himself, " Cao Yu is such a lucky guy to have met such a lovely girl. If only Xian Lin'er had been that cute back then."
Xian Lin'er, who was in the Soul Guidance Department office, couldn't help but sneeze.
"I wonder who's insulting me?"
Cao Yu was already waiting for her outside the Shrek Academy, after all, Luo Yan had already discussed this with him a few days ago.
Upon hearing this news, Cao Yu readily agreed without hesitation.
To be honest, he was also quite eager to see Luo Yan's parents, after all, they were his father-in-law and mother-in-law.
Cao Yu was quite skilled at meeting the parents.
Luo Yan jogged up to Cao Yu, took his arm, and said, "Let's go, Brother Yu."
As they spoke, the two boarded the Flying Soul Tool that Cao Yu had prepared, and in no time they had left Shrek Academy far behind.
Luo Yan turned her head and asked Cao Yu with a grin, " Brother Yu, you'll be meeting my parents then, are you nervous?"
"A little, but it's alright." Cao Yu smiled slightly, then continued, "Yesterday I specially bought some gifts for our parents, I don't know if they'll like them."
"When did they become your parents?" Luo Yan blushed a little embarrassedly, her shy appearance making her look quite adorable.
Because they were so close, her breasts would occasionally brush against his arm.
At this moment, Cao Yu finally understood what it meant to be distracted and restless, and the fragrance emanating from Luo Yan made him feel itchy and aroused.
"You're my girlfriend, so you'll marry me eventually, right? Then your parents will be my parents too."
This Flying Soul Tool has been specially modified by the Soul Guidance Department, and it has a protective shield on it, so the two people can walk around inside without any problems.
As he spoke, Cao Yu knelt on one knee on the Flying Soul Tool, becoming serious, " Luo Yan, will you marry me, Cao Yu!"
"I..." Cao Yu's actions caught Luo Yan off guard.
However, before Luo Yan could speak, Cao Yu took out a necklace, stood up, and personally put it around Luo Yan's neck.
"You're going to marry me from now on, and you can't run away even if you want to."
"You... you're a scoundrel!"
Luo Yan blushed and raised her hand to punch his chest, but not with much force, and was held tightly in Cao Yu's arms.
She felt her heart beating several times faster than usual, and nestled in his arms, too shy to speak.
After flying for about half a day, crossing mountains and seas, Cao Yu finally saw the familiar Star Luo Empire.
However, they did not stay in Star Luo City. They flew over it and continued flying into the distance.
It took them about half an hour to finally arrive at their destination.
This is Red Maple City of the Star Luo Empire. Its population ranks only eighth in the entire empire. Cao Yu doesn't know much about this city; he has only heard about Red Maple City in general, and that's about it.
"Is that your house? It's quite big."
Cao Yu pointed to the mansion not far away and said, and Luo Yan nodded happily.
This was naturally the place where she had lived since childhood, and Luo Yan was overjoyed to be back.
"Oh, right, I haven't asked what your family does yet?"
"Of course they're in business."
"No wonder you're so rich." Cao Yu finally understood, except that the Star Luo Empire didn't have a rich list.
Otherwise, he would have been aware of the Luo Clan's existence.
In the nearby Underworld, lanterns and decorations were already on display, and many servants from the Luo family were busy outside.
The old butler, who was standing outside, ran over happily when he saw Luo Yan.
"Oh, Miss, you're finally back! By the way, who is this?" the old butler asked, pointing to Cao Yu.
"This is my boyfriend, Cao Yu." Luo Yan hugged Cao Yu's arm tightly.
The old butler examined it carefully, then smiled even more broadly.
"Oh my, what a perfect couple!"
"The eldest young lady is getting married in a few days, and I never imagined that the second young lady's wedding day wouldn't be far off either! This is truly wonderful news!"
"Let's go, Second Miss, Young Master Cao, the head of the family and his wife are still waiting for you in the main hall."
As he spoke, the old butler led the two of them to the main hall of the Luo residence, which took several minutes to arrive.
Although the Luo family mansion is not as large as the Cao Clan mansion, it is still quite spacious.
Upon reaching the entrance to the hall, the old butler loudly proclaimed, "Master, Madam, the Second Miss has returned, and she's brought her boyfriend with her! They're a perfect match, a handsome man and a beautiful woman!"
"Oh! Xiao Yan is back." A woman in her thirties stood up and nudged the middle-aged man who was drinking tea beside her.
"Get up, get up! Our precious daughter has brought her boyfriend home! We need to go check on her right away."
"Oh, we really should go and see. We need to find out which pig has stolen our cabbage!"
The middle-aged man quickly put down his teacup and then followed the father and daughter outside.
The middle-aged man Luo Tianqin, the current head of the Luo Clan and also Luo Yan's father. The woman next to him is Luo Yan's mother, Meng Xi.
Cao Yu and Luo Yan, who were walking towards the two of them not far away, naturally also heard what Luo Tianqin had just said.
Luo Yan couldn't help but laugh out loud, while Cao Yu looked somewhat helpless.
Sure enough, in the eyes of every father-in-law, the son-in-law is not very well regarded.
A perfectly normal person has somehow been turned into someone else's pig in his words.
However, Cao Yu still took out the gifts he had brought beforehand.
In this world, it's perfectly acceptable for the father-in-law to give him wine and the mother-in-law to give him beautiful jewelry.
After all, most Martial Soul Master enjoy drinking, especially fine wine.
Women love beauty; it's in their nature, so we can only cater to their preferences.
A moment later, Luo Yan's parents came out and stood in front of the two of them, carefully looking Cao Yu up and down.
"Dad, Mom, I'm Luo Yan's boyfriend. These are gifts I'm giving you as a token of my respect." Cao Yu said, stuffing the gifts into his father-in-law and mother-in-law's hands.
This kid's pretty savvy; this bottle of wine must be royal brew!
