Chapter 49: The Three-Year Period Has Come, Welcome The Return Of The Dragon King:
Soon, Yin Danxue with flawless makeup, adorned in her wedding dress, walked out with Fu Zhi. The sight of the bride drew gasps from the crowd.
"So beautiful!"
"What a stunning bride!"
Ye Liuyun, standing amidst the crowd, also caught sight of Yin Danxue’s face.
She was truly a rare beauty, which only fueled Ye Liuyun's suspicion.
"Grandmother!" Yin Danxue, now fully dressed up, approached the old lady.
"Good, good!" The old lady’s happiness was evident as she nodded repeatedly. "Danxue, I know you’re unhappy with my decision to arrange this marriage for you, but don’t worry, Grandma wouldn’t do anything to harm you."
"Your granddaughter understands." Yin Danxue replied, nodding in agreement. Only she knew if her response was sincere or not.
"Hey! This is definitely harming Sister Danxue!" Fu Zhi couldn’t help but mutter under her breath upon hearing this.
"Fu Zhi!" Yin Danxue quickly tried to stop her. After all, such words were inappropriate for the occasion. As expected, the old lady’s expression turned colder. She looked at Fu Zhi and spoke sternly.
"Today is a joyous occasion for the Yin family. The young lady of the Fu family has no place in meddling with our affairs!"
Fu Zhi wasn’t just anyone—her background was also remarkable, which was why she and Yin Danxue were close friends.
"You!" Fu Zhi started to retort but was quickly stopped by Yin Danxue. Left with no choice, she stood aside, fuming.
As time passed, the groom, the son-in-law by marriage, finally made his appearance. However, his condition was far from ideal. Although his suit seemed expensive, he lacked the bearing to match it. Instead, he resembled more of a street thug. Smiling foolishly at the guests around him, he appeared as if he was about to marry a beautiful wife, looking every bit like the silly son of a rich family.
This sight left many guests bewildered. Even if they were bringing in a son-in-law, shouldn’t they have chosen someone at least presentable? What was the point of bringing in a second-rate man?
At the same time, Ye Liuyun was taken aback when he saw the groom.
Because...
[A new Son of Destiny has been detected. Would you like to receive the corresponding plot, Host?]
Did this mean there were other male protagonists?
Ye Liuyun’s eyes lit up with excitement.
What a surprise!
He had originally thought that if Long Tian was out of the picture, his plot check-in system would become useless. But now, it seemed it didn’t matter whether Long Tian was dealt with or not—there were other male protagonists to consider!
"Receove it!" Without hesitation, Ye Liuyun immediately accepted the knowledge transfer from the system. In the next moment, all the plot details about the son-in-law storyline flooded his mind.
"Grandma!" Meanwhile, Zhang Ning, still wearing a silly grin, approached the old lady. He was finally meeting the wife he was supposed to marry!
"Wife!" He looked at Yin Danxue with eager eyes. When had he ever seen such a beautiful woman in his life?
"..."
Though reluctantly resigned to the situation, this was the man she was expected to marry. Yin Danxue’s dissatisfaction only grew. She had no intention of responding to Zhang Ning.
The old lady noticed the tension and, worried that Zhang Ning might feel embarrassed, quickly intervened. "Xiao Ning! Don’t take it to heart. This is Danxue."
"It’s okay, Grandma!"
Embarrassed? Zhang Ning didn’t feel that way at all. He waved his hand dismissively and spoke with determination. "I know Danxue just can’t accept me right away, but I believe that sooner or later, she’ll fall in love with me!"
Impressive confidence!
"..."
Yin Danxue still didn’t speak, likely because she didn’t want to engage with Zhang Ning at all. The old lady, too, was left puzzled by his unwavering confidence.
But still...
"It’s good that you have such determination," the old lady finally nodded in agreement.
"Hehe!" Zhang Ning, still grinning like a fool, was completely lost in the excitement of marrying such a beautiful wife.
[So that’s how it is!]
At the same time, Ye Liuyun's thoughts caused Yin Danxue, standing at the wedding, and Fu Zhi, who was still feeling indignant, to freeze for a moment. What was that voice?
[This is definitely a son-in-law novel!]
Son-in-law novel?
What was that? Was someone talking?
They looked around but couldn’t identify the source due to the large crowd present.
"What is this?" Yin Danxue wanted to ask about the voice directly but found herself unable to. It was as if some force was preventing her from speaking about her inner thoughts.
"Honey, are you feeling unwell?" Zhang Ning, noticing Yin Danxue’s dazed state, looked particularly worried. Nothing could happen to the beautiful wife he had just married! He tried to move closer to help her, but Yin Danxue, snapping back to reality, quickly dodged him.
"I’m fine!" she replied in a cold tone.
Such a reaction didn’t discourage Zhang Ning; in fact, it made him even happier. His wife finally spoke to him! Hehe!
[First it was Long Tian, and now it’s Zhang Ning! A new male protagonist has appeared!]
A new male protagonist? Qu Yingmeng and the others were surprised.
Yin Danxue was even more puzzled.
Male protagonist? Who, this Zhang Ning? He would be the male protagonist?
With such a pitiful appearance, Yin Danxue found it hard to imagine what kind of hero he could become!
[According to the novel, this is the beginning of a son-in-law novel!]
[Zhang Ning is the new Dragon King!]
Dragon King?
The women were confused by this title, but for Ye Liuyun, a time transmigrator, it was a familiar concept. It was an old trope in novels!
[The Dragon King Palace! Known as the strongest organization in the world.]
[Each Dragon King has the power to influence the fate of a nation!]
Influence the fate of a nation?
Although they didn’t understand what a Dragon King was, just the thought of such power was terrifying.
No matter how wealthy a family was, they couldn’t do that. But this Dragon King Palace supposedly had that kind of strength?
[Now Zhang Ning has been chosen by the old Dragon King to become the new heir!]
[According to the novel, Zhang Ning must endure being a son-in-law for three years and suffer humiliation!]
[After three years, the Dragon King returns in glory!]
[Wuhu!]
[How ridiculous!]
[The author who wrote this novel must be seriously ill!]
-To be continued!
