Li Zhaojun is a career-oriented woman, so she rarely wears casual clothes and even more rarely wears skirts. The clothes Ye Fan brought back for her this time, although somewhat neutral, added to her fresh and unworldly beauty after she put them on.

"Truly beautiful." Ye Fan softly praised while looking at Li Zhaojun, who was standing by the bed after changing clothes.

"You just know how to sweet talk." In the past, Li Zhaojun's personality would never have allowed her to act coy with Ye Fan. However, after their journey to the Secret Realm of Pan Gu, their relationship has advanced considerably, and her reliance on Ye Fan has deepened even further. When she said this, her expression had an unexpected charm, leaving Ye Fan in a daze.

Next to them, Min Shang had also changed into Earth women's clothing, but Ye Fan didn't even glance at her, leaving her with a slight feeling of disappointment in her heart.

"What's happening in my heart?" Min Shang, who was born without emotions, didn't know what jealousy or envy felt like. She only felt a bit uncomfortable inside and wanted to display herself more in front of Ye Fan, but another voice in her heart told her no, you're a girl, you must know how to restrain yourself.

She didn't even understand what modesty for girls meant.

The sky outside was gradually brightening. Ye Fan embraced Li Zhaojun from behind, savoring the happiness of having the person he loves in his arms. The sun was rising outside, and Li Zhaojun was also lost in thought because she hadn't seen an Earth sunrise in over a year. Having narrowly escaped death and emerged from the harsh sea of cultivation, she was now experiencing an ordinary life.

"Let's go see my parents." Li Zhaojun said with a calm expression.

Ye Fan smiled and said, "We also have to see your mom."

For the young couple, this visit to the parents was quite significant. After surviving near-death situations, their contractual marriage could turn into a real marriage at any time, and they wouldn't even need to hold another wedding to be rightfully long-term spouses.

The hotel breakfast had been delivered, but unfortunately, none of the guests in these rooms needed to eat, except for Wu Ding, who wanted to experience what it was like to be an Earth woman. Her first lesson was learning how to check into a hotel, and her second was learning about Earthly food.

"Junior Brother, make sure to be quick. Although Senior Sister can't follow you, my Spiritual Sense will be by your side. Hehe, don't be nervous. Senior Sister knows her limits and won't intrude." Wu Ding laughed as if nothing had happened earlier in the room.

This made the young man pushing the dining cart envious beyond measure. In his eyes, Wu Ding was the epitome of charm and beauty, and such a pretty lady was actually showing interest in a young man who already had a girlfriend.

He lamented in his heart, "Heaven is truly unfair."

When he saw Li Zhaojun and Min Shang emerging from the same room with Ye Fan, he felt like banging his head against a wall. He had heard a young man brought a few beauties in traditional clothes to check in around three or four in the morning. Now, seeing they had all changed clothes and still shared a room, there was no doubt in his mind what might have happened.

As the young man imagined various scenarios, Ye Fan said, "Senior Sister, be careful. We'll be back in about three hours... Or rather, an hour and a half."

Wu Ding glanced at the young man who seemed confused and lightly closed the door, "Dare to leave us here unattended? Senior Sister will haunt you forever."

…

Ye Fan wanted to leave Min Shang at the hotel, but obviously, he couldn't command Min Shang.

He couldn't influence where Min Shang went; wherever he went, Min Shang would follow closely.

When they reached downstairs, a taxi immediately approached. Ye Fan said, "Miss Min, please sit in the front."

"Why take a car? Isn't flying better?" Min Shang furrowed her brows and said.

The driver laughed, "Is the lady talking in her sleep, or does she feel dizzy from getting off a plane?"

He had intended to make a joke, but Min Shang's cold glare made him swallow his words.

In the end, Ye Fan sat in the front, leaving the two beauties in the back, feeling slightly perturbed. His wife, after all, why should she be with others while he sat up front accompanying an unrefined-faced uncle?

"Young man, you look like it's your first time in the Capital; we've got lots of fun places here. Need any recommendations?" the driver said enthusiastically.

"No need, I'm a born and bred local. I know these streets and alleys well," Ye Fan replied in very standard Mandarin.

"Hey, didn't catch that earlier," the driver chuckled, "The two in the back, are they your... clients?"

"What clients?" Although Ye Fan didn't quite understand the driver's meaning, he knew it wasn't something good. The driver sheepishly smiled and said no more, but occasionally gave side glances that were slightly cheeky.

Ye Fan going out with two beautiful women was enough to make even an experienced driver feel envious and jealous—the perks of youth, indeed.

Ye Fan first made a phone call home to inform both sides that he and Li Zhaojun had arrived safely.

Ye Guohua and Qiao Feixuan were very happy, while Li Zhaojun's mother, Ning Huwen, had been anxiously waiting at Ye's house these days. Hearing the news of Li Zhaojun's safety, she was already sobbing on the other end of the call. She had been extremely nervous without any news from her daughter or Ye Fan and quickly had her daughter take the phone to prevent being deceived by Ye Fan.

The driver listened for a moment and asked, "Calling the family?"

"Yes." Ye Fan took the phone from Li Zhaojun and made it vanish like magic in his hands, the driver didn't catch it and nearly hit the brakes.

"Young man, you seem quite capable, handling two girlfriends at once. Aren't you worried about the trouble back home..." The driver, clearly a warm-hearted fellow, tried to give him some advice.

Ye Fan replied crossly, "Uncle, how many girlfriends I have is none of your business, is it?"

The driver sheepishly smiled, shook his head helplessly, and muttered, "Kids these days..."

He claimed to be familiar with the Capital, but it was still Ye Fan, an old native, who was more familiar with the city. He needed Ye Fan's guidance to find their way. Once out of the car, Ye Fan naturally went to support Li Zhaojun.

Li Zhaojun waved her hand and said, "No need, I can walk by myself."

Ye Fan nodded, "Right, we can't let Auntie see you like this. Otherwise, she'd want to send you to the hospital, and everything could get exposed at the hospital."

Now, their bodies are different from before. The role of Qi-Blood within their bodies is increasingly diminishing, with the most important being the support of the body's organs through Spiritual Energy. As a result, their pulse is very slow, approximately only five to ten times per minute, and even if the blood were to dry up, it wouldn't affect their lives as new blood will eventually generate to replenish it.

Li Zhaojun is currently injured and can only gradually recover with Spiritual Energy nourishment.

"I'll help." Min Shang, quite loyal, sent her pure yin Spiritual Energy into Li Zhaojun's eight extraordinary meridians, allowing her face to regain color.

They hadn't yet reached the Ye family villa but already saw the endless stream of cars and the bustling crowd of Forty-Nine City in the morning, causing some traffic jams. Many people were also having breakfast on the way to work.

"These people are so busy," Min Shang said with a sigh while watching the bustling crowd.

"Yes," Ye Fan glanced at Li Zhaojun and smiled, "We used to be among them."
