SSS rank Mother-In-Law to an Invincible Family

Chapter 201: More Wives?

After a long pause, Hu Xiang sighed deeply, shaking her head in reluctant acceptance.

"Although I understand why you did it and know that it had to be done, I just don't like it. I've spent years perfecting my story, only for you to ruin it."

Meanwhile, Tian Lifen crossed her arms, her icy demeanor softening slightly.

"Fine. But if anything goes wrong..." she left the warning hanging in the air, the tension not entirely evaporated.

Liu Meiyun chuckled, her playful tone returning in full force. "Don't worry, nothing will go wrong. I wouldn't let that happen.

Do you think I'd go through all this trouble only for things to fall apart?" Her words carried a strange mix of confidence and mischief.

As the tension in the air faded, replaced by a more familiar sense of ease, Liu Meiyun flicked her wrist, summoning the catalog of potential daughters-in-law once again.

The scrolls reappeared, floating lazily in the air, spinning slowly as they presented new options.

"Now, since you're all here," Liu Meiyun said casually, "why don't you take a look? Qianghua deserves more wives, you know."

"And I want to add a few from the most powerful families in the void, which can increase the power he can command."

Hu Xiang's eyes widened in disbelief; she took a deep breath as she felt her anger rising again.

"More wives? Are you serious, Liu Meiyun?" Her voice carried a mix of disbelief and exasperation.

She was surprised because she knew that Liu Meiyun had already picked a few from some of the most powerful families in the void.

But now she saw her looking for new ones without even bringing the ones she had already chosen.

Tian Lifen rolled her eyes, her frustration bubbling back up. "You really are impossible, Liu Meiyun.

"Ah," she said, her voice softening with affection, "it seems my husband is back from his latest excursion."

The portal shimmered into view, its ethereal light signaling Xu Jianhong's return. Though he wasn't visible yet, his presence filled the room, a powerful aura that always brought comfort to Liu Meiyun.

Hu Xiang and Tian Lifen exchanged glances, their frustrations momentarily forgotten as Xu Jianhong's imposing aura washed over them.

"It's time for us to go," Tian Lifen said, her tone more collected now. She turned to Liu Meiyun, her frustration still simmering but no longer at the forefront.

"Just... don't interfere again. Let things progress naturally from here."

Hu Xiang gave Liu Meiyun one final look, her glare softened by understanding. "We'll be watching, Liu Meiyun. Don't make us come back and deal with you."

Liu Meiyun, ever the playful one, waved them off, her eyes sparkling with mischief. "No promises.

But don't worry; you'll get to meet Qianghua soon enough and be with him as long as he wants it to happen. I wouldn't deprive you of that forever."

With that, Hu Xiang and Tian Lifen stepped toward the portal, their irritation tempered by the weight of Liu Meiyun's revelations.

"Don't interfere again," Hu Xiang warned one last time, her voice stern but lacking the heat it had earlier.

Liu Meiyun waved her hand dismissively. "No promises," she replied, the playful lilt still in her voice.

With that, the four women stepped through the portal, vanishing from the void pocket and leaving Liu Meiyun alone once again in her lavish palace.

As soon as they left, Liu Meiyun leaned back on her couch, letting out a long, satisfied sigh.

She flicked her wrist, and the floating catalog of potential wives reappeared, the images resuming their slow spin in the air.

A soft smile played on her lips as she flicked through the profiles again. "Perhaps I'll keep these candidates for later," she mused aloud to herself.

"After all, Qianghua deserves the best."
