Both Gao Liang and Xia Yu were deeply moved by the selfless deeds of Da Jian and Shui She. "Xia Yu! Let's work together! Tap into our full potential and strive to be the very best!" Gao Liang suggested. Xia Yu nodded gently in agreement. Yes, yin and yang complementing each other, the couple practicing mutual cultivation. "Summer Rain, come over!" Gao Liang called out, and Summer Rain stepped beside him. Gao Liang embraced her firmly and kissed her, leaving her momentarily stunned. His kiss was so warm—so full of a manly allure—just like the one she had imagined in her dreams. What was happening to her? Her heart raced, her pulse quickened, her breathing became rapid, and her mind lost control, unable to resist this sudden kiss. Though so assertive, this kiss embodied the captivating charm of a wild, passionate man. Gao Liang had completely won over Summer Rain with just one kiss—a development neither of them had anticipated. Everyone was anxious, the nouveau riche and the dinosaur lady both confident and triumphant, fully convinced of their victory. Gao Liang paid no attention at all, simply continuing to kiss Xue Yu deeply and sincerely. The kiss was so profound and genuine that everyone noticed—Xue Yu, usually so reserved, finally opened up and embraced Gao Liang warmly. The beautiful woman and the handsome man, sharing a romantic kiss, were captured by several journalists who immediately seized the moment and rushed to get their shots. At this moment, both of them were bursting with energy, unity, and cohesion. As the host called out "zero," Huang Liang and Xia Yu's boats arrived at the island ahead of the others, astonishing the crowd. The flamboyant young couple and the dinosaur-like woman looked downcast. Their first words to the journalists gathering around them were: "We have no idea what they've taken—suddenly they've been transformed by an extraordinary, almost supernatural energy!" "Mr. Huang! Could you explain how, through a simple kiss, you and Ms. Xia have managed to unlock such a remarkable potential?" The reporter pressed the microphone to Huang Liang's lips. Huang simply nodded and smiled. Beside him, Xia Yu blushed deeply and whispered in a soft voice, "Perhaps it's the magic of the story from Liyutan that has inspired us." "Great! Great!" A foreign reporter with golden hair and blue eyes rushed over, heard Xia Yu's wonderful explanation, and gave her a solid thumbs-up. The crowd stirred. "Big Jin! Water Society sister! Finally, you've both arrived!" A crowd gathered around Huao Liang and Xia Yu, worshipping them as blessed and auspicious figures. Young couples danced around them in a circular dance, bringing happiness to Huao Liang and Xia Yu. "They are the most beautiful couple! Let us all join in blessing them!" the host bowed in response to the crowd's enthusiastic request. The way they kissed was for Xia Yu to hold a red mountain jujube, bitten by her, and feed it to Gao Liang. Gao Liang was delighted—today, old Zi truly had a fortune, having just picked up Xia Yu as his wife. This success was all due to the mutual cultivation between the two, made possible by the breakthrough of "The Universal Code" on human physical potential. Amid the crowd's cheers, Gao Liang and Xia Yu shared a close lip-to-lip contact, each holding the red jujube in their mouth, taking turns feeding each other small bites—so intimate and seamless that the audience clapped enthusiastically. Only one枣kernel remained. Gao Liang wanted it, but it was taken by his future mother-in-law, who said, "This is the very essence of their love! Jujube—may they have a son! I'll be a grandmother next year!" "Mom! What are you talking about!" Xia Yu blushed and said. "Heh! I'm so happy today—having found such a handsome, capable young man as my son-in-law! My heart is truly thrilled—this moment has been my dream for so long!" Xia Yu's mother was overjoy "Being a son-in-law by living in your household?" High Light beamed with genuine enthusiasm, pulling夏雨 close and saying, "That means you'd have to work for my family for the rest of your life!" "Hmph! So petty! Who in their right mind would want to work for you for life? Don't get all romantic on me! Do you really think I'm your wife?" Though she said this, Summer Yu felt deeply delighted inside. At that moment, an older local villager shouted, "Welcome, bride and groom, into the bridal chamber!" "Whoa! I'm done!" Summer Yu gasped in alarm, trying to escape. But the villagers had already blocked the exit completely. "You can't break our traditions! As a young lady from Liyutan, you must properly attend to your husband!" said a plump, slightly angry aunt from the crowd. "Exactly! Exactly! Little Yu! Don't let your mother down—at home, you must follow the household customs!" said Summer Yu's mother. With no choice, Summer Yu nodded and was gently ushered into the bridal chamber. What about High Light? No one needed to push her—after all, a beauty like Xia Yu had already been quietly enchanted all along, just waiting for the right moment. Now, the moment had arrived. The wedding chamber was thoughtfully arranged: statues of Dajian, a local idol, and Shu Soc, another revered figure, stood proudly. The bridal bed was elegant, surrounded by fragrant flowers gathered from the mountains—orchids, peonies, azaleas, and more—filling the entire chamber with a delicate, lingering aroma that left a lasting impression. Gao Liang lay comfortably on the soft bed, eyes closed, reliving the mesmerizing moment when Xia Yu had gently complied. Yet, as he waited, Xia Yu never made it to the bed at all. What a reversal! Gao Liang opened his eyes and found Xia Yu gone. The chamber door was firmly shut, guarded by people outside—she couldn’t have escaped through that entrance. There must be another exit. With his ability of spatial perception, Gao Liang scanned the entire room, inside and out—excellent! Where was she? The more you try to run, the more I won't let you go! Gao Liang pushed aside a cabinet and found Xue Yu hiding in a corner. She thought she was safe from notice, but where could she possibly escape Gao Liang's sharp eyes? When Gao Liang spotted her, Xue Yu was genuinely surprised. She stared in disbelief, saying, "When I was a child, I used to play hide-and-seek with my friends. As long as I hid in this spot, I never got discovered!" "Are you trying to escape the wedding?" Gao Liang faced her directly. "If you think this is just a game, I can simply walk away right now. Honestly, I don't see any point in this at all!" Gao Liang's straightforward words left Xue Yu speechless. At that moment, the sound of knocking at the door echoed outside. Someone was shouting, "Have you finished yet? We're waiting to celebrate your wedding!" "Xiao Yu! Make your mother proud! She's just cast another divination—this man is your destiny from a past life! You must hold on to him!" Clearly, it was her mother's warm, loving voice.
