Lin Xi was stunned.

Her hands, holding the hot cocoa, trembled slightly, and tears that had just subsided welled up in her eyes again.

"You...you mean..." Her voice trembled, unable to believe what she had heard.

Lu Yao smiled and nodded gently.

"I may not be able to do other things for the time being, but I can still meet you occasionally and let you see for yourself."

Lu Yao knew very well that even if Lin Xi would remain loyal to her because of her faith, people still needed to build trust through interaction.

She needs to go through the process of building trust with Lin Xi.

Lin Xi nodded quickly, tears welling in her eyes, and said in a choked voice, "Thank you, Miss Lu Yao."

Lu Yao handed over a tissue and said softly, "Don't cry, or your eyes will swell up and you won't be able to see."

Lin Xi took the tissue, wiping her tears while laughing, her disheveled appearance revealing a touch of comicality.

"Don't worry, as long as you don't want it to be made public, we will carefully protect this secret for you."

She spoke solemnly and earnestly; if she weren't worried that Lu Yao would find her strange, she would have sworn an oath to the heavens.

Lu Yao naturally saw through her attitude and nodded: "Then I must thank you. It's getting late, I have to go back. If there's anything, you can contact my partner anytime, or you can contact me directly."

Upon hearing her mention the two people, "lover," Lin Xi subconsciously looked at Fu Ciyan beside her.

Fu Ciyan naturally heard Lu Yao's introduction of him.

The simple word "lover" made their hearts flutter slightly.

Fu Ciyan swallowed hard, savoring the word "lover." He had never heard this word before, but upon hearing it for the first time, he instantly understood its meaning.

"I understand, Miss Lu Yao." She said softly, then looked at Fu Ciyan and bowed respectfully. "General Fu, thank you for taking care of me during this time."

Fu Ciyan nodded slightly, his expression indifferent. He walked over, put his arm around Lu Yao, and they left the coffee shop together and got into the car.

The car smoothly drove into the night. Lu Yao leaned back in her seat and looked out the window at the lights rushing by.

Fu Ciyan hugged her from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder and inhaling the fragrance of her hair: "Yaoyao, what did you mean by calling me 'lover' just now?"

Lu Yao was slightly taken aback, not expecting that Fu Ciyan would overhear her casual introduction of Lin Xi.

"It's just a term used to introduce a partner," she explained softly, her gaze slightly evasive.

"The term of endearment." Fu Ciyan repeated the words softly, his arms tightening slightly as he held her tightly in his embrace. "My love, Yaoyao is my love too."

"Mmm," she responded softly.

Fu Ciyan chuckled softly, a pleasant vibration emanating from his chest.

"Yaoyao," he called to her.

"Um?"

"I like this nickname," he said, his lips brushing against her ear, his warm breath falling on her sensitive skin. "You'll introduce me like this from now on, okay?"

Lu Yao's ear tips were so red they looked like they were about to bleed, but she still nodded gently.

A smile spread across Fu Ciyan's eyes as he placed a kiss on her ear.

The second season of "Temptation of a Wife" was even more popular than the first season.

On the night of its premiere, the real-time viewership ratings broke the highest record for Federal Center Channel in nearly three years, and online discussions soared, with seven of the top ten trending topics being related to "Temptation of the Wife".

#LingMo and LuQing's Heartbreaking Story#

#Xie Linyu's acting skills are considered divine#

#I cried at the last scene#

#Please air season 3 soon#

……

Meanwhile, the first season of "Temptation of a Wife" was also very popular when it was broadcast in other ethnic groups.

On the film and television platforms of the Winged People, Sea People, and Beast People, the number of views for "Temptation of Wife" has been rising steadily, and it broke into the top three of the trending charts on various platforms in just one week.

The most surprising were the orcs.

This traditionally conservative race, which is extremely resistant to foreign cultures, has shown extraordinary enthusiasm for "Temptation of a Wife".

On the orcs' social media platforms, discussions about "Temptation of the Wife" are everywhere.

[How could someone among the human race understand us so well?]

The character Ling Mo is so realistic; that mix of stubbornness and vulnerability is just like a warrior from our wolf clan!

[I heard the author of this work is a human woman? How did she manage to grasp the core of the orc race so accurately?]

[I strongly urge the Terran race to produce more works like this! It's totally my style!]

Does anyone know this author? Is there any possibility they'll come and work with the Orcs? We Orcs need talent like them!

[I heard the human drama "Seduction of a Wife" has already started airing its second season, why are we only in the first season?!]

[I heard that the neighboring Winged Clan and Mermaid Clan are also watching "Temptation of the Wife," and they've even been calling online for the Human Clan to write stories about their race next time!]

……

Xie Linyu sent all the screenshots of the comments about foreign tribes that Xiao Chen had collected to Lu Yao.

Looking at the screenshots of the comments, Lu Yao was both amused and exasperated: "How did Xiao Chen collect so many?"

Xie Linyu leaned closer, resting his chin on her shoulder: "He's a huge fan of yours now. He spends all his free time browsing the internet, specifically searching for your name, and he takes screenshots of anything interesting."

Lu Yao flipped through the screenshots, a smile unconsciously curving her lips.

"They also want me to write stories about the Winged People and the Sea People?" She turned to look at Xie Linyu, a smile in her eyes.

Xie Linyu leaned over for a look, then raised an eyebrow: "You want to write it?"

Lu Yao thought for a moment and shook her head: "I don't have that plan for now. The third season of 'Temptation of the Wife' hasn't been adjusted yet. Let's talk about it after it's finished."

"Hmm, no rush." ​​Xie Linyu nodded, then leaned closer. "But if you really want to write, I can provide you with material."

Lu Yao glanced at him and asked curiously, "What kind of material do you have?"

Xie Linyu blinked and smiled meaningfully: "If Yaoyao wants to see a mermaid, I'm not incapable of dressing up as one."

Realizing what he meant, Lu Yao blushed.

"What nonsense are you talking about? I didn't have such thoughts." After saying this, Lu Yao paused and muttered softly, "It's not true anyway."

"Yaoyao, what did you say? Speak louder! What's not true?" Xie Linyu smiled, but there was a dangerous glint in his eyes.

"I didn't say anything." Lu Yao raised her hand and slapped away his hand that was on her waist, then turned and ran to the side.

Xie Linyu stood there, looking at her with a half-smile: "It seems our Yaoyao wants to see a real mermaid."

Lu Yao's ears turned red as she glared at him, "Is that not allowed?"

Xie Linyu gritted his teeth: "Fine, of course! Just beg Fu Ciyan, and maybe he can catch one for you tomorrow!"
