The morning three days later.
Zhou Yu woke up in the Yun Lan Tian Gong villa.
He rolled out of bed, casually picked a tracksuit from the wardrobe full of various clothes, and then went into the bathroom to get ready.
Looking at the handsome face in the mirror, he muttered to himself, "Ever since I left the Desolate Sea Prison, I seem to be sleeping better and better."
The bustling city, the dazzling world.
Sleeping in a place ordinary people couldn't afford in their lifetime, he felt surprisingly calm these past two days.
This villa was given to him by Yun Yan Lan a long time ago, and it had everything he needed.
Let alone tracksuits.
Even small items like underwear were specially bought by Yun Yan Lan, and the price was astonishing.
Actually, Zhou Yu didn't want to accept such a generous gift at the time, but he really didn't dare to refuse that woman.
Because he knew that if he refused Yun Yan Lan this time, she would sneak into his bed with some strange items under the cover of night.
The people his old man knew in his early years were all influential, and Yun Yan Lan was no exception.
Although Zhou Yu only knew she was a hidden super-rich person, he guessed that the power and connections she possessed were no less than that of the female war god Leng Xue.
Otherwise, Yun Yan Lan wouldn't have been able to clean up the mess for him so seamlessly.
Dozens of thugs from the Zhang family and two martial arts masters were charged with disturbing the peace, and the final report stated that the two groups had killed each other and perished.
It sounded mysterious and absurd.
But the incident ended perfectly with such an outcome.
The Zhang family and the Su family had nothing to do with this matter at all.
When Zhou Yu received the detailed information from Fatty Qian the morning before yesterday, he was so impressed by Yun Yan Lan's competence that he was willing to prostrate himself.
Because not only the Su family, but even the Zhang family, who sent the thugs, were completely cleared.
And this was exactly the outcome Zhou Yu wanted.
Yun Yan Lan had always understood him.
"It feels like a waste to have this villa given to me."
After washing up, Zhou Yu stood outside the villa's gym and looked inside with a sigh.
The gym, like the swimming pool, was one of the supporting features of the Yun Lan Tian Gong villas.
However, he never liked exercising indoors.
Compared to indoor workouts, Zhou Yu preferred running in the park.
Moreover, his martial arts cultivation had reached the bottleneck of the Postnatal realm, and he needed more contact with nature to make further progress.
That's what his old man said.
The path of martial arts, from Postnatal to Innate realm, requires comprehension, not just practicing moves day and night.
"The two martial arts masters from the Zhang family could at most be considered to have reached the Postnatal Ming Jin level, not even An Jin. People like them live so comfortably in Yunhai City. It seems the prisoners in the Desolate Sea Prison are more formidable."
"The breakthrough from Postnatal to Innate realm is a huge hurdle. I don't know if I can cross it in this lifetime."
"Forget it, even if I don't reach the Innate level, I will hardly encounter any opponents in Long Country."
While contemplating these thoughts.
Zhou Yu left the villa and walked towards a nearby park.
As for breakfast, he could just grab two hand-grabbed pancakes from a roadside stall.
However.
He didn't notice a beautiful figure fleetingly passing through the moving leaves across the landscaping strip a few meters away.
And that person was Leng Xue, who had just returned from her run in the nearby park.
Thus, the two missed each other perfectly.
...
This evening.
It was the welcome banquet Leng Xue had arranged for the new members of the Dragon Group.
Prominent figures in Yunhai City were dressed in their finest attire, eager to catch a glimpse of the female war god.
Su Qishan and his wife were particularly looking forward to it.
They planned to force Zhou Yu away after this banquet and make Su Yu Yan change her mind, agree to marry into the Zhang family, and secure more resources for the Su family.
But what Su Qishan and Zhang Ru Fen didn't expect was that Zhou Yu arrived at their home before they even left.
Due to various considerations, Su Qishan and his wife did not dare to stop him.
Thus, Zhou Yu easily met Su Yu Yan, who had put on a little makeup.
"You are exceptionally beautiful today."
He praised her without reservation.
Su Yu Yan was already naturally beautiful, with an S-shaped figure, making any dress look good on her.
Especially her legs, which were simply captivating.
Zhou Yu looked at her with no restraint, gazing and gazing, not hiding his thoughts at all.
"You... stop staring at me like that..."
His aggressive gaze made Su Yu Yan feel both shy and embarrassed, her legs pressed tightly together, her pretty face flushed red.
In the past, other men had also occasionally looked at her legs.
But others would sneak glances.
Only Zhou Yu showed no concealment at all.
Yet, Su Yu Yan didn't dislike this man's gaze.
"Beautiful women are meant to be looked at, otherwise, why would you dress so beautifully?" Zhou Yu said with a light laugh.
Su Yu Yan's expression at this moment was quite endearing.
Zhou Yu felt like teasing her.
"Is that so?" Su Yu Yan asked.
Zhou Yu's statement sounded reasonable at first glance, but she felt there was a loophole.
However, she couldn't figure out what the problem was in a short time.
"Why isn't it!"
Before Su Yu Yan could react, Zhou Yu continued, "There's an ancient saying in Long Country, 'A graceful lady is admired by a gentleman.' The more beautiful you are, the more I want to stare at you."
"Hmph! You know how to flatter," Su Yu Yan pouted coquettishly.
It was an eternal truth that women loved compliments.
Zhou Yu repeatedly praised her beauty, how could she not be smitten?
"But!"
"But what?"
"You are my wife now, and only I am allowed to stare at you so brazenly. If anyone else dares to do so, I will gouge out their eyes."
"Who is your wife... we are just..."
"You're not my wife? Then what is this little book?"
"It..."
Su Yu Yan was defeated.
She was somewhat depressed that she could neither beat Zhou Yu nor out-argue him.
Just then, Su Qishan, with a dark expression, called out, "Yu Yan, we should leave."
Looking at the two people laughing and chatting, he, as a father, could only swallow his grievances.
It was clearly the Su family, and clearly his daughter.
But Su Qishan could not prevent Zhou Yu from interacting with Su Yu Yan.
Su Yu Yan did not respond to her father, only nodding slightly in his direction.
Her gaze returned to Zhou Yu, "Are you going there too?"
"Otherwise, why would I come looking for you?"
Zhou Yu leaned closer to her, smelling her fragrance, and whispered in her ear, "I plan to take you to break off the engagement tonight."
"Ah!"
Su Yu Yan covered her mouth, her expression astonished.
Although she had prepared herself accordingly, this was happening too quickly.
