She even said she wasn't interested in jewelry... Has she learned to lie?
Of course, this was just a joke he made to himself.
If Violet were to learn to lie, it would probably take a very, very long time of peaceful living... and even then, she might not be able to learn.
Lu Ye thought that if she could lie one day, it would prove that she had grown up.
Language and writing are wonderful things.
It conveys people's thoughts.
Although it is only on the surface, it can penetrate deep into people's hearts.
As people grow up, they learn to carefully hide themselves and use all sorts of lies to disguise themselves.
But whether a lie is malicious or well-intentioned, it is ultimately a message conveyed by someone.
Lu Ye couldn't help but think of the times he had lied.
It probably started in elementary school; at first, they would very directly ask adults for pocket money.
After realizing that this was not working, he started lying about needing to buy pens, notebooks, and the like.
However, his lying skills were very poor back then. He got the money, but when it came time to buy stationery, he had no excuse and had to come up with another one.
When he started elementary school, he lied to his teacher, saying he had forgotten to bring his homework, in order to avoid being punished.
When he entered junior high school, he lied to the female classmate at the next table who looked like Sister Feng, saying that she was actually really good-looking to alleviate her feelings of inferiority.
In high school, he lied to a rich girl in his class, saying she was his dream girl, and in return, he got a reference 2060 graphics card...
Lying is a way to protect oneself.
Lying is done to appease others.
Lying for profit.
What if one day Violet starts lying to herself?
By then, I shouldn't have to worry about her anymore, right?
In fact, it's not necessarily a bad thing for people to learn to hide their thoughts with lies.
“Um…” Violet seemed to want to say something.
"You said."
She stammered for a long time, seemingly trying very hard to organize her thoughts.
After a long while, she finally put her thoughts into words.
"Would you... be... my... 'wife'?"
Violet stared into Lu Ye's eyes and spoke very seriously, word by word.
Although she could speak fluent Chinese, she still chose the words that best suited her to form the sentence.
"Wife?" Lu Ye was taken aback.
"A wife is... someone you can be with for a long time, as that person said before."
Violet's words were as soft as the clouds in the sky.
Lu Ye thought for a moment and responded very seriously.
"No...a wife can't stay with you for very long."
Why?
Violet seemed deeply shocked, her cherry-colored lips parted into a small "o" shape.
Because what Lu Ye said was completely different from what the old man had said before.
Violet seemed to have been deceived, but she had never been deceived before, and had never experienced such a shock.
“Because it’s a contractual relationship, even if you become husband and wife, you can still get divorced and separate,” Lu Ye said. “For example, Uncle Wang downstairs from me got caught by his mother going to a foot massage parlor, and now they’re getting a divorce!”
"is it?"
Violet was somewhat dejected upon hearing this.
She didn't quite understand the meaning of terms like "club" and "caught in the act."
But none of that matters, because her focus was entirely on the first half of Lu Ye's sentence.
Even if they become husband and wife, they may still separate.
So even if she is a "wife", she may not be able to stay with him forever.
The little wild beast inside me was howling, feeling somewhat aggrieved.
At that moment, a warm hand gently placed on Violet's head and slowly massaged it.
“However, there are also couples who stay together after marriage,” Lu Ye said. “For example, my uncle and aunt, and my parents. They’ve been together for so many years, and they’ve all become old men and women, but they’re still together.”
"Then, how can we become husband and wife?" Violet asked.
"Well, when you grow up, if you haven't changed your mind, come find me. Maybe I'll marry you then."
"marry?"
"That is, to be your 'wife'."
"When do you consider yourself grown up?"
"You've grown up when you feel you've matured."
Lu Ye smiled.
Yes, you will grow up peacefully.
This is my wish now.
Just then, a warmth suddenly emanated from my arms, and at the same time, my brain felt as if it were being electrocuted.
Lu Ye instinctively reached into his clothes.
That's where the Protoss fragments are stored!
After a brief moment of distraction, Lu Ye immediately opened the panel.
At the very bottom of the panel, there is a line of striking black text.
[Return to World Progress: 70%]!
Meanwhile, the heartwarming light blue interface reappears.

Chapter 53 The Battle Situation is Not Good
An hour and a half later, the waiter brought over a late-night snack.
Pine nut fish cake with Borghese red wine.
This was given to Violet by Lu Ye.
He turned his gaze to the round velvet bed; the girl was sleeping poorly, but soundly.
She felt a little tired shortly after putting on the ring, so she washed up and went to bed.
But Lu Ye knew she would wake up in the middle of the night... hungry.
She had been shopping for so long, and she would most likely wake up in the middle of the night, so Lu Ye had prepared food in advance.
Lu Ye found paper and pen, wrote a letter, and sealed it with wax.
He then carefully put the envelope away and tiptoed out the door.
He wasn't worried that Violet would look for him everywhere when she got up, because he had left a note in a conspicuous place in the dining car.
Violet sought out Lu Ye because she didn't know where he was going or when he would arrive, which made her feel uneasy.
But as long as Lu Ye tells her the itinerary in advance, she will feel at ease.
Just like when they were on the island, if Lu Ye said he wanted to go out and practice archery, she would obediently practice calligraphy until Lu Ye came home.
Around 9 p.m., there were slightly fewer pedestrians.
Lu Ye asked some passersby on the street for directions and then headed towards the east of Leiden Port.
There are military camps there; you should be able to find a few familiar "old friends."
Hawkins said they would be on vacation when they returned, and should be able to find someone.
…………
More than forty minutes later.
Inside a nicely decorated bar.
"How about it? Not bad here, right?" Hawkins raised an eyebrow.
"Wow..." Ye Zhou said, "I had no idea such a wonderful place existed."
"It is indeed a good place, it's wonderful."
Lu Ye looked around, marveling at the sight.
The dim red lighting created an ambiguous atmosphere, and the air was filled with the smells of perfume, cigars, and alcohol.
But let's put the renovations aside for now.
The people here really know how to have fun.
This bar doesn't deliver drinks to you, nor does it sell drinks by the bottle.
If you want to drink good wine, you have to go get it yourself.
On the towering bar counter, several attractive girls were leaning over it, wearing trendy tight-fitting backless dresses and bright lip gloss. Large swathes of their snow-white skin were exposed to the air, their curves alluring, and some of their breasts were so pert that they could hold a wine glass.
After mixing the drinks, the bartender doesn't hand the glasses to the customers. Instead, he places them one by one on the girls' bodies, starting from their buttocks and then moving down their spines. The male and female customers then take their drinks from these spots, and occasionally some liquid spills onto the girls' skin, creating a particularly alluring effect.
"I really want to help them get rid of all that alcohol..." Ye Zhou said earnestly, "by sucking it out with my mouth."
