Just you wait. Sooner or later, I will leave Chaldea just like Okita and Jeanne Alter, find you, and make you pay the price!

Chapter 154 Wedding Ring Crisis

Ye Ming glanced at the picture of Sister Wang Morgan on Yae Sakura's phone, and unsurprisingly, it was another standard Takeuchi face.

To be honest, this drawing by Sister Wang really hits Ye Ming's sweet spot.

Or rather, the girls with Takeuchi faces in FGO actually seem pretty good.

Unfortunately, the information about Morgan is currently only from the Japanese server's data mining; it hasn't been released in the Chinese server yet. And Ye Ming, who has been away from FGO for a long time, naturally wouldn't have Morgan in Chaldea.

In other words, even if the girls from Chaldea came to this world, it's highly unlikely that they would have a queen.

However, if one day Morgan, Artoria, and Mordred were to come to this world together and come knocking on my door, just thinking about it would be a very troublesome thing.

After all, the relationship between the three women was far too complicated.

First of all, Morgan and Artoria were both daughters of Uther, the first king of Britain, and were biological sisters. Logically, Morgan, the elder sister who inherited the blessing of Britain, should have become the king of Britain. However, in the end, it was Artoria, the younger sister, who was chosen to take the throne.

Therefore, Morgan always harbored resentment towards Artoria.

Mordred, in a sense, should be considered the daughter of Morgan and Artoria, although strictly speaking, Mordred should be considered a homunculus, not a biologically born human...

These three women have very complicated feelings for each other. To be honest, Ye Ming doesn't know what unexpected and terrible things might happen if these three women get together.

However, Ye Ming was just thinking about it casually. After all, Morgan hadn't been released when he quit FGO, so there was no possibility of being blocked at the door by the Queen.

"Does Ms. Okita also play FGO?"

Seeing Yae Sakura playing FGO, Ye Ming thought of Okita Souji, who was suspected to be from Chaldea.

To be honest, although they had known each other for a few days, Ye Ming did not have a deep impression of Ms. Okita because she rarely spoke or did anything out of line.

The only two things I remember are the cherry-haired beauty I saw practicing her sorabi in the park when I got up early to exercise the day before yesterday, and Ms. Okita's bright and cheerful smile when she was with Laffey.

Therefore, Ye Ming's impression of Miss Okita was limited to her love of kendo and her fondness for little girls.

These characteristics highly overlap with those of Okita Souji in FGO, which is one of the reasons why Ye Ming suspects Okita's identity.

As for Yae Sakura.

Although Ye Ming had some doubts, to be honest, neither the Yae Sakura who said "No one understands Yae Sakura better than me" a few days ago, nor the Yae Sakura who was obsessed with games and liked playing FGO, was the Yae Sakura that Ye Ming remembered from Honkai Impact 3rd.

The Yae Sakura in front of me is acting in a way that is completely unlike the gentle and strong shrine maiden in the game.

"She doesn't play."

Yae Sakura shook her head in reply.

She was telling the truth.

Normally, if you were to inexplicably arrive in this strange world and learn about the existence of the game from which you came from, your normal reaction would be to try playing the game and learn more about it, right?

That's exactly what Yae Sakura did, but Okita Souji had never played FGO, let alone finished it, he had never even downloaded it.

To be honest, Yae Sakura had no idea what Okita Souji was thinking.

However, one thing she was certain of was that Okita Souji's inactive and uncompetitive personality had very likely already sealed her fate as a loser.

It was precisely because of Okita Souji's negative example that Yae Sakura was able to set aside her concerns and make up her mind to take the initiative.

"bright……"

Do you have time tomorrow? I have something I'd like to talk to you about privately.

Yae Sakura had intended to say that, but she was a step too slow; Ye Ming spoke first.

"By the way, do you have Okita's phone number or WeChat? Could you send it to me? I have something to do this morning and can't go to her place, so I wanted to send her a message to ask if I can go this afternoon."

"Eh?"

Yae Sakura was stunned.

She blankly handed Okita Souji's phone number to Ye Ming, blankly said goodbye to Ye Ming, blankly responded to Gan Yu's smile and greeting, and blankly watched Ye Ming and Gan Yu walk out of the elevator hand in hand. Yae Sakura suddenly felt a strong sense of defeat.

"That one, is he your friend?"

Once outside the residential compound, Gan Yu, who had been speaking in the same manner, suddenly asked a question.

"Well, I guess you could say that. Actually, she's Fu Hua's best friend. I only met her because of Fu Hua."

Ye Ming answered casually.

"And who is Fu Hua?"

Gan Yu frowned slightly.

"Uh, Fu Hua."

Ye Ming pondered for a moment, then frowned, seemingly somewhat displeased, and said, "Gan Yu, this is the first time we've met. Why do you keep talking about other people's business? Rather than these irrelevant things, I'd like to know more about you and understand you better."

Ye Ming changed the subject; he wasn't stupid enough to openly admit that Fu Hua was his wife when he first went shopping alone with Gan Yu.

After all, this time was different from the time with Ke Qing. After sleeping with Ke Qing, he had given up on the idea of ​​being with Fu Hua, so he readily admitted Ke Qing's identity.

But times have changed. This time, Ye Ming is determined to have it all, so he can't do it the same way as last time.

"Huh? Get to know me more?"

Gan Yu was taken aback by Ye Ming's words.

Although she had already sensed Ye Ming's initiative when they held hands before, such direct words still made Gan Yu's cheeks blush slightly.

Is this considered a confession?

Or am I overthinking it?

Gan Yu was filled with anxiety.

"Ah."

Ye Ming nodded firmly, his tone deep: "Gan Yu, I..."

"Excuse me, sir, please wait a moment."

Just as Ye Ming was about to say something, a female cashier in uniform suddenly rushed out of the supermarket by the roadside.

The cashier was also carrying a tote bag.

Oh, this.

Seeing the familiar handbag in the young lady's hand, Ye Ming's heart sank to the bottom.

Sure enough, the cashier caught up with Ye Ming and handed him the bag, smiling, "Hello, is this what you put in our locker yesterday? I saw you forgot to take it when I was cleaning the lockers last night, so I put it on the counter for you. When I saw you today, I quickly brought it to you."

"Aren't the lockers supposed to be able to hold things for three days?"

Ye Ming's tone was bitter.

"That was last month. Recently, the supermarket has been getting more and more customers, and there aren't enough lockers, so we've changed it to only allow same-day storage. Didn't you see the notice on the lockers?"

"I'm sorry, I didn't notice at the time."

Since things had come to this, Ye Ming had no choice but to bite the bullet and take the bag, smiling apologetically: "I'm sorry for the trouble."

"It's ok."

The cashier smiled, turned around, and went back into the supermarket.

What is this?

After the cashier left, Gan Yu looked at the shopping bag in Ye Ming's hand and asked a question out of curiosity.

Chapter 155 Raffi's Wife Fell in Love with Me

"This..."

Meeting Gan Yu's curious gaze, Ye Ming subconsciously pulled the bag back a little, and calmly said, "This was left here temporarily by a colleague of mine. I don't know what's inside."

As he said this, Ye Ming secretly glanced at the opening of the shopping bag.

Yesterday, when buying wedding rings, he bought ten sets at once. Generally speaking, wedding rings are packaged separately in a small gift box. Ten sets, including the couple rings, would require twenty gift boxes. To make them easier to carry, the sales assistant found him a shopping bag on the spot.

Moreover, wedding rings are valuable items, both symbolically and monetaryly. The sales assistant was worried that too many wedding rings might be lost, so she specially used two shopping bags – she put all the gift boxes containing the wedding rings into a small shopping bag, folded the opening, and then put them into a large shopping bag.

Thanks to the sales assistant's thoughtful gesture, Gan Yu was unable to discover what was inside the shopping bag when she peeked inside.

Therefore, Ye Ming had the confidence to lie.

Anyway, Ye Ming felt that with Gan Yu's quiet personality, as long as he explained, Gan Yu would definitely not continue to ask questions.

If it were the mischievous Hu Tao, she would probably have already snatched the shopping bag from Ye Ming's hands with a grin.

All I can say is that thankfully, Gan Yu isn't a walnut.

"colleague?"

After hearing Ye Ming's explanation, Gan Yu didn't press the matter further, but instead asked curiously, "Do you also like working?"

"Um, you like your job?"

Ye Ming was slightly taken aback when he heard this, and then he remembered that many of the girls in Genshin Impact were workaholics who loved their jobs, such as Keqing and Jean, compared to Gan Yu.

However, these girls enjoy their work for reasons that may stem from belief, responsibility, or a commitment, but Ye Ming...

"Strictly speaking, I don't like working at all. The only reason I work is to earn money to eat. After all, I'm not a rich second or third generation. My family doesn't own a mine, and I don't have a home. If I don't work, I won't have money, and if I don't have money, I'll starve to death."

As he spoke, Ye Ming sighed and continued, "Speaking of which, I wrote a novel on a website called Huanle Shuke when I was in college, and it was successfully published. I remember being very excited when I received my first royalty payment. Perhaps it was because my hard work and passion had been rewarded that I was motivated to keep writing. In the second month, I became a prolific writer and wrote nearly 200,000 words. When I received my royalty payment the following month, I actually received more than 20,000 yuan."

"To be honest, I was already very satisfied with the royalties of over 20,000 yuan. At that time, I even had the idea of ​​becoming a full-time author. However, the harsh reality soon gave me a rude awakening. As the word count increased, more readers would abandon the story or skip subscriptions, and fewer readers would follow the story. As a result, the royalties would also drop sharply. Except for a very few top authors with talent and strength, most ordinary authors cannot escape this cruel law. Every day, I watched helplessly as the number of readers decreased little by little, and the plot did not receive any feedback. This was a huge blow to my creative enthusiasm. Even if I started a new book, no one could guarantee that it would be successful. Typing in front of the computer every day was not as easy and comfortable as I imagined. That's why there is a saying that writing novels is a dead end."

"Later, I gave up my dream of becoming a full-time writer. After graduation, I found a job and, like most people, became an ordinary office worker, working to earn money. To be honest, I don't like it at all."

"If you don't want to work, then don't work. I can support you."

Gan Yu gently held Ye Ming's hand and whispered, "Although we left Liyue and came to this world empty-handed, after these years of hard work, I have saved up some money, enough for you to live the life you want."

"Didn't you say you used to like writing novels? Then go ahead and write. Don't worry about not getting any responses, because I can keep reading your comments. Don't worry about starving without royalties, because my money is your money. If you feel bad about spending my money, then I'll subscribe and tip you so you can earn royalties from your own work."

"Ah, this..."

Ye Ming was stunned when he heard Gan Yu's words.

He looked down at Gan Yu's serious expression and chuckled, "Ke Qing said something similar before. Do you really want to support me and let me live off your money?"
