Chapter 517: When you were in Flower Country, you were the one that all men avoided.
"Great Aunt, how's it going? Did you catch up with my... Grandpa Ming?"
Bai Yue swallowed the word "dog" that was about to come out of her mouth, and looked at Shen Xingmian with eyes full of curiosity.
"Oh, Brother Ming must be really angry. No matter how I yell, he just keeps walking forward, moaning 'Ahhhh' non-stop!"
Shen Xingmian sighed helplessly, obviously depressed because he couldn't catch up with Ming Jingxing.
"It's okay. The old lady was just a little upset and can't figure it out for a while!"
Luosha hurried forward and comforted him softly.
"If he really likes you, he will definitely come to you on his own initiative!"
"Brother Ming is a good man. I don't want him to be sad because of me."
Thinking of Ming Jingxing's careful care for her these days, Shen Xingmian couldn't help but feel a little sad, but she quickly adjusted her state, turned to look at Bai Yue, and spoke in a gentle tone.
"Xiaoyue, since I met you here, let's go back to Baihua Country together after we find Xiuyu!"
"Xiu Yu? Aunt, are you talking about Uncle Fu?"
Hearing this name, Bai Yue seemed to suddenly understand something and asked quickly.
"Grandma, is it true that the reason you came to the Wulin Alliance is to take Uncle Fu back?"
"Yes."
Shen Xingmian nodded, his tone somewhat helpless.
"Xiao Fei wrote to say that she had done something wrong and that Xiuyu had left in anger, so she asked me to come and ask him to stop being angry with her and go back as soon as possible."
"Sure enough, I, a woman, have the same personality as the captain. No matter what happens, I always like to blame myself first."
Just when Bai Yue couldn't help but sigh silently, Shen Xingmian continued.
"But I don't know if Xiuyu is willing to go back this time. Xiaofei said that he was very angry at the time and even threatened that he would never return to Baihua Country..."
"Don't worry, great aunt! Uncle Fu really, really wants to go back!"
Bai Yue quickly interrupted her, her tone very firm.
"When I saw him last month, he even told me secretly that he was worried that he was too willful at the time and that it would upset my mother, and that she would no longer want him!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Shen Xingmian suddenly widened his eyes and asked with a puzzled look on his face.
"Xiaoyue, from what you said, have you already met Xiuyu?"
"Yeah! I happened to run into him when I was in Forget-Your-Sorrow Valley, and then..."
Before Bai Yue could finish her words, Zhuang Xiaoye, who had been standing next to her, suddenly came over, his face full of nervousness and his tone urgent.
"Young Master, why are you going to Forget-Your-Sorrow Valley? Are you injured? Do you need the help of Divine Doctor Fu?"
"No, no! Uncle, you're overthinking it!"
Bai Yue quickly waved her hands and explained with a smile.
"The reason I went there was to look for Dr. Lu there. After all, we have a similar relationship..."
Having said this, she suddenly paused. After all, their relationship was no longer that of siblings.
The Rakshasa standing by was very quick-witted. Seeing this, he immediately sneered and teased her on purpose.
"What do you mean by 'the same feeling'? Just explain it clearly! Stop hesitating and keeping me in suspense!"
"Oh, there's nothing to hide."
Bai Yue spread his hands, his tone calm.
"We were originally like brother and sister, but due to some coincidences, we are now husband and wife."
"couple?!"
When Shen Xingmian heard this, he screamed in surprise.
"But aren't you already married to Yun Qingjie, Prince Cheng of Wenqu Kingdom? Although the royal family rules of our Baihua Kingdom are relaxed and women can have multiple husbands, would His Royal Highness Prince Cheng agree?"
"Oh! Not only did he agree, but even his brother Yun Qingchen and his younger brother Yun Qingchi agreed!"
Bai Yue sneered and complained silently in his heart. Seeing everyone's suspicious faces, he could only sigh and briefly tell everyone present everything that had happened to him, starting from the Wulie Kingdom's hostage house, to the Wenqu Kingdom, and then to the Wulin Alliance.
After she finished speaking, the scene fell into a long silence. Everyone was stunned, obviously not yet fully digesting this "shocking" plot.
"So, Xiaoyue, you've already had affairs with eight men along the way? You're truly amazing, you're definitely even better than your teacher!"
Luosha was the first to react, with an expression of disbelief on his face.
"To be exact, there should be 9..."
Just at this moment, the figure of Mo Xuanche suddenly flashed through Bai Yue's mind. Ming Jingxing had said before that he wanted the jade pendant to be given to his "sweetheart" by him.
And if Mo Xuanche gave her this jade pendant, wouldn't that be an unspoken confession of love?
"Great, player! You finally realized Mo Xuanche's feelings!"
A bouncing "Great Joy" emoticon suddenly floated before Bai Yue's eyes.
"Our hero finally saw the light at the end of the tunnel. His efforts in treating you well were not in vain!"
As soon as Xiao 1 finished speaking, the other party started to grumble again.
"It's possible that I'm overthinking it. Maybe he just mistook me for a messenger. After all..."
"There's no such possibility! Absolutely not!"
Seeing that she was about to think in the wrong direction again, Xiao 1 quickly interrupted her.
"I guarantee it with my system's integrity! He just likes you and adores you!"
As for the player's stupid head, the system decided to help the male protagonist break the window paper.
"Xiaoyue, you are not kidding, are you?"
Just when Bai Yue was lost in thought because of the system's words, Shen Xingmian stared at her with disbelief in his eyes.
"When you were in Baihua Country, you were the one that all men avoided. How come so many chosen men are interested in you now?"
She paused, then added eagerly.
"Besides, why did you marry into the Wulie Kingdom as a hostage? It was Xiao Fei who personally..."
In the middle of his words, Shen Xingmian suddenly shut up, his eyes instantly becoming extremely serious, as if he realized something.
When Zhuang Xiaoye heard the words "Men avoid it as much as possible", he found it hard to accept.
He quickly stepped forward and asked anxiously.
"Old Madam, what did you mean by that? My little master is so kind and lovely. Are all the men in Baihua Country blind? They can't see the good in my little master!"
"Well, Uncle, you can't blame them for this."
Bai Yue coughed, fearing that Shen Xingmian would bring up the original owner's "dark history" again, and quickly explained.
"It was because I was young and had a very impulsive personality that everyone misunderstood me. It had nothing to do with whether they were blind or not."
Seeing that Zhuang Xiaoye still wanted to speak up for her, Bai Yue quickly looked at Shen Xingmian and changed the subject.
"Great aunt, I've actually been curious about something for a long time—what's the basis for the surnames of our Baihua royal family? Look, your last name is Shen, mine is Bai, and my mother's is Ye. We don't sound like we're from the same family at all; it seems like they were just randomly put together."
"Haha, our surnames are all given by God, how can we just make them up randomly?"
Shen Xingmian's attention was drawn back by this question, and he explained casually.
"Every time a ruler ascends the throne, he or she must go to the ancestral temple to pay homage to the ancestors. Then, he or she draws a character from a brocade box. The character drawn becomes the surname of the next generation of the royal family. This is a rule passed down from our ancestors."
