[A little reward, how about it?]

Marriage!

These two words had never appeared in Ye Tianchen’s mind before!

But, reaching this point, Ye Tianchen felt his own pressure, his own responsibility, his own duty. The older one gets, the greater the responsibility, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, this is an eternal truth!

Ye Tianchen understood very well that if his parents accepted his identity as a Martial Artist, and accepted the true worldview, whether they chose to stay in the Mortal World or follow him to the Ancient Martial World, one thing could not be avoided: he had to get married!

Because in Ye Tianchen’s heart, he knew very well, even if he could do anything to ensure his parents’ longevity, fate is unpredictable. Even a legendary figure at the Peak of the Emperor Realm might not be able to have things go their way. There’s a chance that Ye Tianchen’s parents would pass away before him, leaving a real regret: that his parents wouldn’t see him get married and have children. This would be a lifelong regret for both his parents and him. Therefore, Ye Tianchen decided to get married!

This morning at breakfast, Ye Tianchen was ready to reveal to his parents his identity as a Martial Artist and the real worldview of the universe. Yet, he didn’t know where to start as the meal was almost over. He wasn’t cowardly, but he simply didn’t know how to begin. In this situation, Liu Rumei, a girl, took the initiative to announce their impending marriage, leaving Ye Hong and Luo Yan quite surprised, but then extremely happy.

As far as the marriage partner was concerned, to Ye Hong, Luo Yan, and Ye Qianwen, those closest to Ye Tianchen, the most suitable choice was naturally Liu Rumei. Over the years, Liu Rumei had been living in the Ye family’s mansion, and they had already accepted her as their daughter-in-law. Hearing Ye Tianchen was going to get married made them happy; hearing that Liu Rumei was the bride made them even happier!

"Yes, great news, great news indeed, this is tremendous news for our whole Ye family. Bring me my best bottle of wine, I want a drink!" Ye Hong said happily.

"Old man, you haven’t drunk in years, maybe you shouldn’t drink!" Luo Yan advised Ye Hong.

"What’s the harm, my son is getting married, there’s nothing happier for me than this! I want to have a good drink!" Ye Hong laughed heartily.

"Brother, are you really getting married? To Sister Rumei?" Ye Qianwen asked with a joyful smile.

"Yes!" Ye Tianchen nodded.

"Sister, are you really marrying my brother-in-law?" Liu Fei also asked with a smile.

"Yes!" Liu Rumei nodded shyly.

"That’s wonderful!" Ye Qianwen and Liu Fei almost simultaneously exclaimed these three words.

"I think you two should get married first!" Ye Tianchen shook his head, looking at Liu Fei and Ye Qianwen.

"Sure, sure, I wouldn’t mind!" Liu Fei quickly laughed cheekily.

"I do mind, go away, why are you instigating?" Ye Qianwen rolled her eyes at Liu Fei.

Ye Tianchen smiled and glanced at Liu Rumei, who was also smiling back at him. However, Liu Rumei’s smile carried a hint of mischief, making Ye Tianchen feel she had some ulterior motive by helping him out and agreeing to marry him. Yet, with the whole family so happy, Ye Tianchen naturally couldn’t spoil the fun!

"Tianchen, letting Rumei, a girl, announce such a thing, you’ve really dropped the ball!" Luo Yan criticized Ye Tianchen.

"Yes, yes, I’m reflecting on that!" Ye Tianchen said with a smile.

This meal was one of the happiest Ye Tianchen had ever had with his parents and sister, highlighting their anticipation for his marriage. No wonder his father, Ye Hong, was so upset last night. Ye Tianchen also felt glad, as deciding to get married was the right choice. Seeing his parents so happy made it all worthwhile.

A bottle of wine that Ye Hong had treasured for many years was opened. When Ye Tianchen smelled the fragrance, he was shocked because he sensed Spiritual Energy. In the Mortal World, if a wine contains Spiritual Energy, it must be refined from some Spiritual Medicine Divine Grass, or at least have such ingredients; otherwise, it couldn’t be this potent.

"What a fragrant wine!" Liu Fei laughed cheekily.

"How about this, the three gentlemen present, and you three ladies, we gentlemen will surely drink, and if any lady wishes to join, that’s fine too. Let’s have a drink together to celebrate Tianchen and Rumei’s marriage!" Ye Hong happily suggested. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

"Dad, this doesn’t seem like ordinary wine!" Ye Tianchen commented, looking at the slight Spiritual Energy emanating from the cup.

"Yes, this bottle of wine I bought many years ago for a substantial sum. It is said to be refined from a thousand-year-old ginseng, something money can’t buy. If it weren’t for my old friendship with its owner, who I’ve helped a lot, he wouldn’t have given it away!" Ye Hong nodded with a smile.

"I see, it seems your friend is quite formidable and truly cherishes your friendship!" Ye Tianchen nodded and said.

"Naturally, even though we don’t keep in touch much, our friendship never changes!" Ye Hong laughed.

Ye Tianchen nodded. He hadn’t expected his father, Ye Hong, to have a bottle of fine wine refined from a thousand-year-old ginseng. This thousand-year-old ginseng is incredibly precious, not only in the Mortal World but also in the Martial Arts World, where cultivation resources are extremely scarce. Ye Hong’s friend, who could find a thousand-year-old ginseng and extract its essence into wine, must be a remarkable person, at least in the Mortal World, he’s considered a talented and extraordinary individual!

Soon, the servant filled the six glasses. Besides Ye Hong, Ye Tianchen, and Liu Fei, Luo Yan, Ye Qianwen, and Liu Rumei also prepared to have a drink. Although it was early to drink, such a joyous occasion wouldn’t have any negative effects. Right then, Ye Hong raised his glass and said, "Let’s finish this drink together, as a preliminary celebration for Tianchen and Rumei’s marriage!"

With a drink down, Ye Tianchen saw his father Ye Hong, mother Luo Yan, sister Ye Qianwen, and Liu Fei all so happy, which made him feel very content. His marriage seemed to be something everyone looked forward to, and his marriage to Liu Rumei was something everyone was pleased about. Liu Rumei was truly a woman of both talent and beauty, not only in the Mortal World, but even in the Martial Arts World, there were many strong individuals who wished to marry such a woman. However, Liu Rumei belonged to Ye Tianchen, and the one she loved deeply was him.

"Rumei, since you two have decided to get married, I think we should hold the wedding sooner rather than later. Do you have any requests? What does your Liu family request? As long as it’s within our Ye family’s capability, we’ll do it without hesitation!" Ye Hong said generously.

"Uncle, Aunty, I’ll follow your arrangements, I have no requests!" Liu Rumei shook her head with a smile.

"Rumei, you can’t have no requests! Like the wedding dowry, or the scale of the ceremony, these all need some requirements and attention. Besides, you can’t let this kid off too easily!" Luo Yan said lovingly to Liu Rumei.

"Uncle, Aunty, really, there are no demands from us. My family will support and bless me no matter what!" Liu Rumei replied with a smile.

"How about this, we transfer eighty percent of Sea King Group’s shares to your name, Rumei, how does that sound?" Ye Hong proposed.

"Wow, Dad, that’s quite generous!" Ye Tianchen was taken aback and asked.

Knowing that Sea King Group has now become the most powerful enterprise in all of China, and will compete internationally in the future, it is the foundation of the entire Ye family. For Ye Hong to intend to transfer eighty percent of its shares to Liu Rumei shows his appreciation for her as a daughter-in-law, and if this were exposed, it would be a sensational international news!

"You should just happily marry such a good wife like Rumei, if it weren’t for her, there wouldn’t be the Sea King Group today. She deserves it!" Ye Hong said earnestly.

"Uncle, that’s too much, really, I don’t need any shares!" Liu Rumei said with an embarrassed smile.

"Rumei, it’s what you deserve, just take it!" Ye Hong said seriously.

"Yes, Rumei, all these years you’ve worked so hard, make sure this boy Tianchen treats you well in the future. If he dares bully you, just tell us, and we’ll handle him!" Luo Yan said joyfully.

"Wow, seriously? Dad and Mom are already siding with the daughter-in-law, brother, your future days might be tough..." Ye Qianwen chuckled gleefully.

"Of course, parents would side with the daughter-in-law, what about you as the sister?" Ye Tianchen jokingly asked Ye Qianwen with a smile.

Ye Qianwen chuckled, then clutched Liu Rumei’s arm, playfully and proudly saying, "Do you even need me to answer that?"

"You guys... I can’t believe no one is on my side, Liu Fei, what do you say..." Ye Tianchen pretended to glare at Liu Fei as he spoke. (To be continued.
