In the Radiant Heavenly Emperor Palace’s Emperor Flame Palace, seven little lolitas clustered around Yan Zhen’s feet. They tilted up their delicate, adorable faces and gazed at him pleadingly. “Father Emperor~ You promised to play with us today. A grown-up can’t go back on his word!”
As the big-sis-in-chief—er, child king—Yan Yan spoke up to claim their due. Yan Liuli nodded furiously in agreement with Flame Sis!
Their mothers and aunts looked on with amused silence. Yan Zhen cleared his throat twice, quieting the girls, then turned and opened a Space Portal. He led them through.
Inside lay a colossal amusement park, stocked with every ride imaginable: roller cloud coasters, Ferris star wheels, genuine pirate ships… all crafted by Yan Zhen’s own hand.
The girls’ eyes lit up like stars—even Bing’er couldn’t maintain her mature composure. “Wow, an amusement park!” Yan Yan cried in delight. “I’ve been dying to ride the water dragon!”
Yan Zhen smiled and snapped his fingers with a crisp crack. One by one, Lotus Root People popped into existence, chirping with excitement. “All right, follow the Lotus Root People. They’ll show you all the fun.”
Yan Weiwei cocked her head. “What about Father Emperor?”
Yan Zhen tousled his third daughter’s hair. “Of course I’ll be here with your mothers, watching over you.”
Yan Liuli bounced in glee. “Yay!”
“Of course, the water dragon ride first… but Yun’er is the youngest here, so let’s hear what she wants.”
Yan Yan truly had that big-sister vibe, which filled Yan Zhen with deep satisfaction. Cai Lian felt even more at ease; ever since her little sisters had been born, her daughter had grown more sensible by the day. Yan Yun was sweet and obedient, but unlike the somewhat introverted Yan Lingji, she spoke her mind plainly: “Since Sister Yan likes riding—er, riding the water dragon, then let’s go ride the water dragon!”
Yan Yan’s face lit up with joy as she scooped her little sister into a hug. “Yun’er is the best!”
Elder sister deferential, younger sister polite—a perfect picture of family harmony. Yan Zhen’s old-dad heart nearly melted on the spot.
The family played from morning till night, departing only with great reluctance when the little one finally grew weary.
The rear palace of the Radiant Heavenly Emperor’s Palace consisted of nine main halls: the Emperor Flame Hall, the Empress Hall, Baoji Palace, Rainflower Palace, Four Leaves Palace, Golden Jade Hall, Cloud Heaven Palace, Immortal Spirit Palace, and the Boundary Palace.
A miniature continent floated within the Boundary Palace, from which one could teleport directly to nearly any location on the Profound Heaven Continent. Above this continental map hovered numerous secret realms—various Cave Heavens created by Yan Zhen himself. Some were amusement parks, others sports arenas, all designed as places for people to unwind and relax.
When Yan Zhen emerged from seclusion yesterday, he found that all the women in the palace happened to have rare free time. He gathered them for a vacation in one of the relaxation Cave Heavens. It was winter, with snowflakes swirling outside the Emperor Palace, so Yan Zhen chose the “Sunny Beach” with its blue skies and white clouds. Beside the beach stood a “Seaside Hut” stocked with drinks and snacks, and next to that was a changing room. Yan Zhen had carefully prepared a selection of swimsuits for the imperial consorts to choose from. As for himself, he made a dazzling entrance in his one-of-a-kind Long-Trunk Little Elephant Swim Pants.
He set up the beach umbrella and other gear first, reclining on a lounge chair beneath it. He slipped on an eye mask painted with dead-fish eyes and sipped what looked like a pure natural beverage enhanced with special effects, waiting for them to emerge in their swimsuits. After about the time it took to brew a cup of tea, someone finally stepped out from the changing room. The first to appear were Yan Meng’er, Yan Ruyu, Mi Xue’er, and Xiao Xinyan.
Though Meng’er was now a young wife, she hadn’t changed much overall, still sporting her petite frame with heavy-accented giant breasts, so she went for a cute yet slightly sexy vibe. Her outfit was a pink bikini, her hair tied up in a messy bun that suited her perfectly.
After giving birth, Cousin Ruyu’s figure had matured into that of a proper matron. Her hair was styled in a pineapple updo, and she wore a bikini as well, but in a more subdued orange hue. Her full-moon buttocks were especially eye-catching.
Senior Sister Xue’er and Senior Sister Xinyan, with figures slightly less impressive, opted for frilled halter bikinis. hey wore frilled skirt-style bottoms paired with similarly edged tops adorned with floral patterns, evoking a tropical flair—one in milky white, the other in orange-yellow.
The four women approached Yan Zhen, showing off for him. Yan Meng’er and Mi Xue’er even twirled like they were dancing, hoping to draw praise from their husband.
“Cousin, does Meng’er look good in this?”
“Little Brother Yan Zhen~ What about me?”
Yan Zhen lounged leisurely on his chair, lifting his eye mask to appraise them. He nodded in satisfaction. “…They all suit you perfectly. Your figures and auras match them beautifully—you all look stunning.” The women beamed with delight, their cheeks flushing pink. Spotting Yan Zhen’s subtle chin lift, Yan Meng’er reacted first, crouching beside the lounge chair to plant a smacking kiss on his cheek. Yan Zhen grew even more pleased. Seeing this, Mi Xue’er knelt on his other side and kissed his face as well.
Satisfaction level: +1. He glanced at Cousin Ruyu and Senior Sister Xinyan. Their pretty faces reddened, and they followed suit, leaning in one after the other to kiss him. Only then did Yan Zhen release them. “Go have fun. I’m going to lie here a bit.”
“Then we’ll head to the sea first.”
“Go on, go on.”
Yan Zhen closed his eyes, replacing his eye mask, and waited quietly for his other beloved wives to appear. Soon, a soft, alluring voice sounded from nearby. “Little Brother Yan Zhen.”
He immediately pushed up the eye mask. There came Sister Ji Ya, Aunt Mu, Jin Tong, and Yu Nu, and his eyes lit up once more. As expected, Sister Ji Ya had chosen a bold red swimsuit—a daring string bikini with minimal fabric. Just two triangular patches covered her top, and the bottom was little more than T-Back Panties. Vast expanses of snowy white skin gleamed under the sun, nearly blinding Yan Zhen’s titanium-alloy dog eyes.
She had pinned a vibrant peony between her locks—the flower was beautiful, but it paled next to her. She radiated irresistible charm, utterly captivating. “How about it, Little Brother Yan Zhen? Does Sister’s choice suit your taste?” Yan Zhen promptly gave her a thumbs-up. “Nice!”
Ji Ya chuckled lightly, cupping her arms. “What do you think of Aunt Mu’s outfit? Sister picked it out for her with care.”
Yan Zhen’s gaze shifted involuntarily to Aunt Mu behind Sister Ji Ya. She too wore a daring string bikini, but in black with slightly more coverage—likely at Aunt Mu’s insistence.
Under his heated stare, Aunt Mu blushed. She spoke up to divert his attention. “Your Majesty—Little Uncle, Jin Tong and Yu Nu put effort into their looks too.”
Yan Zhen nodded, his eyes reflecting the twin sisters’ stunning forms. Though they had regained their normal minds, they still wore expressionless faces most days, their eyes sparkling with brightness only around familiar people. Aunt Mu pulled her two “daughters” forward for him to admire.
Jin Tong and Yu Nu both showed shy expressions, lowering their heads. They wore skirt-edged halter swimsuits—three layers of ruffles on top, and double-layered pleated skirts below. Their petite builds amplified their youthful, girlish appeal. Yan Zhen flashed another thumbs-up. “Nice as well.”
Jin Tong and Yu Nu lit up with joy. “Thank you, Your Majesty.”
Yan Zhen frowned. “Didn’t I say to call me husband at home? Even Aunt Mu earlier—none of that Your Majesty or Little Uncle business. Do it over.” Aunt Mu bowed her head. Deep down, she still saw herself and the twins as mere chambermaids, but with Yan Zhen insisting, she complied. “Husband~” Yan Zhen hummed in approval.
Ji Ya smoothed things over. “Little Brother Yan Zhen, what are you doing lounging here? Why not join Little Sister Meng’er and the others in the sea?” Yan Zhen replied calmly, “You go ahead. I’ll lie here a bit longer.” Ji Ya glanced at the changing room behind her and instantly understood her husband’s intentions, smiling to herself. “Then we’ll head out first.”
With that, she leaned in and brushed a gentle kiss against his lips. Yan Zhen thought to himself that Sister Ji Ya truly understood him—no need for reminders; she knew exactly what was on his mind. Ji Ya shot Aunt Mu a look, and the latter crouched down to kiss Yan Zhen’s forehead. Then Jin Tong and Yu Nu flanked him from both sides, each planting a kiss on his cheeks.
Perfect, perfect, perfect. Yan Zhen felt a surge of smug satisfaction deep inside as he quietly waited for the rest of the ladies to arrive. After all, hadn’t he organized this whole beach outing with everyone just for this?
Before he could slip the blindfold back on, two pointed coughs sounded from behind him. He looked up to see Little Aunt Yu Qing gazing down at him from on high.
“Why are you just lying there? You called us all here to play, and now you’re the one catching a nap?”
She wasn’t alone—Big Aunt Yulu was right there with her: “Now that’s no good at all, Little Shuang Zhen~”
As they spoke, Mentor Yu Xuan, Cousin Sister Yudie, Aunt Shui Bailan, Mother-in-Law Yu Lu, and Yu Zhicao all crowded in around him.
