Chapter 516: First and second wives

Ling Xuejiu’s boyfriend? Bei Lanfeng thought he must have heard wrong, and with an incredulous face, he said, "Xiao Jie, you mean to say, he is Xue Jiu’s boyfriend?"

Ling Xuejiu glared at Li Mengjie, about to speak, when Li Mengjie cut in saying, "Yes, that’s right. It’s true. Bei Lanfeng, you might as well give up. Xue Jiu already has someone she loves, so at most, you guys can be friends."

"Huh?" Bei Lanfeng was totally defeated by Li Mengjie’s words. In his view, if that country bumpkin really was Ling Xuejiu’s boyfriend, he would indeed be very upset. After all, he had pursued Ling Xuejiu in the past but had never succeeded. If Ling Xuejiu had chosen a country bumpkin as her boyfriend, how could he be pleased with that? However, upset as he was, his primary target now was Li Mengjie, so he was quite astonished to hear her say such a thing.

"Xiao Jie, what nonsense are you talking about?" Ling Xuejiu, too, was bewildered and somewhat angrily glared at Li Mengjie.

Li Mengjie let out a sly giggle and said, "Xue Jiu, don’t be embarrassed about it."

Bei Lanfeng interjected, "Xiao Jie, the reason I came back this time was actually to..."

"I know!" Li Mengjie said, "But I’ve made it very clear already, you don’t stand a chance."

Bei Lanfeng was infuriated but had to patiently say, "What I mean is, I came back, not for Xue Jiu, but for you."

"Uh-oh! Then you have even less of a chance," Li Mengjie said with a cheerful smile, "I’ve already discussed it with Xue Jiu, and we’ve decided that in the future we will marry the same person. Xue Jiu will be the first wife, and I’ll be the second wife. So, if Xue Jiu has a boyfriend, it means I have one too. If you want to pursue me, you must first pursue Xue Jiu, because the first wife calls the shots on boyfriend matters. Now do you understand?"

Bei Lanfeng was dumbstruck by Li Mengjie’s words. Li Mengjie actually planned to marry the same man as Ling Xuejiu? What kind of international joke was this?

Ling Xuejiu also had a look of astonishment. So, this mischievous girl, Xiao Jie, had been trying to express this notion all along. She couldn’t help feeling both exasperated and amused but understood her best friend was stubbornly trying to make Bei Lanfeng give up for the sake of Xiao Jie’s happiness, so she too reluctantly held back from speaking up. Of course, she was subconsciously not opposed to Xiao Jie suggesting her boyfriend was Leng Xuan. If it had been some other guy, she probably would have exploded by now!

Seeing that Ling Xuejiu didn’t say anything, Bei Lanfeng assumed she had acquiesced, which made him even angrier. He thought to himself, what did that country bumpkin have that compared to himself? How could Ling Xuejiu be attracted to him? Wasn’t that just lacking taste?

If Leng Xuan knew what was happening outside, he would probably faint right away, but his thoughts weren’t on that at all. As soon as he entered the room, he communicated with Long Lingzi through telepathy, and right after that, Long Lingzi opened the gate to another dimension for him. His consciousness then completely entered the Dragon Ring Space.

The Dragon Ring Space was vast and empty, like an illusory world, with misty white clouds and numerous faint gold sparkles, like the stars in the sky, arranged in a magical trajectory, floating above this world. At first glance, it indeed appeared quite magical!

The sudden entrance into such a world took Leng Xuan by surprise. He couldn’t help thinking he was dreaming and asked, "Long Lingzi, is this the Dragon Ring Space?"
