Chapter 148

For the owners of the diary copies, they believed everything Luo Ye wrote in the diary was his heartfelt words, and they never doubted its truth.

So upon seeing this diary entry, Gu Yue Na's lips involuntarily curled slightly, and a charming smile appeared on her face.

After seeing his bright and happy appearance, even though Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong were also women, they were momentarily stunned.

Xiao Wu beside them couldn't help but speak up to remind.

"My lord, I think you should restrain yourself a bit."

Xiao Wu could understand Gu Yue Na being pleased after receiving Luo Ye's praise, but there was no need to be so blunt about it, right?

You should know that Ning Rongrong has already discussed with Zhu Zhuqing and is preparing to pursue Luo Ye.

Doing this would not only fail to make Ning Rongrong restrain herself, but it would likely arouse her fighting spirit, leading her to launch a fierce pursuit of Luo Ye.

After hearing Xiao Wu's words, Gu Yue Na also sensed the strange looks from everyone, so she quickly restrained her smile and returned to her aloof beauty demeanor.

"Don't take Luo Ye's words to heart; let's continue doing our own things."

Even though Zhu Zhuqing is usually very broad-minded, after hearing this, her gaze toward Gu Yue Na also showed a hint of dissatisfaction.

Gu Yue Na, who had received the praise, could indeed take these words to heart, but how could she possibly ignore them?

Luo Ye had straightforwardly stated in the diary that Gu Yue Na was a virtuous inner helper, and with her status as Soul Beast Sovereign, isn't that equivalent to already having secured the position of Principal Consort?

Zhu Zhuqing indeed doesn't care how many women Luo Ye will ultimately have, but concerning the position of Principal Consort, she cannot remain unmoved.

However, Zhu Zhuqing also knows she cannot blame Gu Yue Na for this; after all, she is also helping Luo Ye so that he can obtain the Immortal Herb more smoothly.

Fortunately, Zhu Zhuqing has someone to speak for her.

After noticing Zhu Zhuqing's slight emotion, Ning Rongrong's eyes shifted, and she pretended to speak to Gu Yue Na.

"I remember you said before that your relationship with Luo Ye was a matter of your past life, and in this life you would definitely not repeat the past mistakes; I wonder if those words still count now?"

As Ning Rongrong's words fell, regardless of whether it was Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu, or Ye Lingling and the Ice and Snow Two Emperors, they all involuntarily turned their gazes toward Gu Yue Na.

They were equally curious about Gu Yue Na's current attitude toward Luo Ye, wanting to know how she viewed their relationship.

Gu Yue Na's complexion slightly changed upon hearing that.

Although her current attitude toward Luo Ye is indeed not as firm as it was at first, after several days of contact, some subtle changes have already arisen.

But if she were to take back her previous words, it would still affect the prestige of her as the Soul Beast Sovereign Silver Dragon King.

Thus, after a moment of silence, Gu Yue Na spoke in a deep voice.

"Of course it counts; do you think I (royal) would go back on my word?"

Gu Yue Na's answer was not beyond Ning Rongrong's expectation.

To be precise, this itself was Ning Rongrong's little scheme, deliberately provoking Gu Yue Na to make her abide by her earlier words.

Of course, doing this would not bring Ning Rongrong any benefit; she merely wanted to use this method to increase Zhu Zhuqing's fondness for her.

Thus, when pursuing Luo Ye later, she could have Zhu Zhuqing act as a wingman to provide her with more help.

So Ning Rongrong shrugged and gave a hehe laugh twice.

"I certainly wouldn't think that; I was just asking out of curiosity."

Seeing Ning Rongrong's triumphant smile on her face, Gu Yue Na also belatedly realized she had fallen into a trap, and her inner feelings became even more unpleasant.

Moreover, she had no proper reason to pick a fight with Ning Rongrong, so she could only choose to stew in her own anger.

After Zhu Zhuqing reacted, she gave Ning Rongrong an approving look and resolved to help Ning Rongrong pursue Luo Ye in the future.

Having achieved her goal, a hint of strange light flickered deep in Ning Rongrong's eyes.

"Who says the one who laughs last must definitely be one of these three—Zhu Zhuqing, Gu Yue Na, or Qian Renxue?"

"As long as I play it right, even I have a chance to compete with them."

"Although Zhu Zhuqing has already developed feelings for Luo Ye, in my view the threat is basically nonexistent."

【As for Gu Yue Na and Qian Renxue, the two of them currently have no intention of taking action at all; it would be best if they could keep it that way, then I would have a chance to take advantage of the situation.】

Thinking that she might possibly turn the tables and defeat Zhu Zhuqing, Gu Yue Na, and Qian Renxue in succession, thereby becoming the main wife in one fell swoop, Ning Rongrong's heart couldn't help but fill with anticipation.

It must be said that Ning Rongrong's expectation is indeed very beautiful, but the difficulty of actually carrying it out is too high.

At this stage, Gu Yue Na indeed still has some trouble letting go of her inner pride, especially since the words she once said have become a handle, and she is unwilling to go back on her previous promise.

However, Qian Renxue's mindset has already changed.

After looking at Luo Ye's diary for so many days, and also having to listen to Liu Erlong's advice every day recently, Qian Renxue is no longer as steadfast as before.

Just as Liu Erlong said, persisting in this way really has no meaning at all.

It is perfectly normal for powerhouses on the Douluo Continent to have multiple partners, and compared to Luo Ye, all peers would pale in comparison.

Moreover, she will inevitably have to come into contact with Luo Ye in the future, and even Qian Renxue cannot guarantee whether she will fall in the future.

If she waits until she truly develops feelings for Luo Ye, only to find that someone else already holds a higher position in Luo Ye's heart than she does, that would indeed be embarrassing.

You must know that she is Luo Ye's legitimate fiancée from his previous life; as for the position of main wife, who else could it be but her?

And what caused Qian Renxue's mindset to undergo this change was precisely Luo Ye's act of praising Gu Yue Na as a virtuous wife in his diary.

「Gu Yue Na, this guy, clearly said before over and over that she would never develop feelings for Luo Ye, and she showed such a firm attitude in front of us, but then she turned around and used this method to increase Luo Ye's favor. 」

「Fortunately, Luo Ye indirectly exposed her behavior of breaking her promise in the diary, allowing me to detect her scheme in advance. 」

「Otherwise, I would really have been schemed by her! 」

Qian Renxue gritted her teeth in anger, wishing she could go right now to the Tian Dou Royal Academy to confront Gu Yue Na.

However, Qian Renxue also understands that regardless of whether Gu Yue Na did this intentionally or accidentally, she will definitely not admit it.

So rather than doing such a thankless, laborious thing, it would be better to simply change her mindset, try to accept Luo Ye's feelings for her, and then she could rely on her status as fiancée to smoothly seize the position of main wife.
