Duan Ling Tian felt he was the luckiest man in the world with one arm wrapped around Li Fei and the other wrapped around his son.
Little Feier... Look how big Nianer has grown. Shall we hold our wedding ceremony? Duan Ling Tian said to Li Fei softly. Li Fei is still his fiancee since they were not officially wedded. Li Fei would only be considered as his wife after they held a wedding ceremony.
Im waiting for younger sister Keer. Li Fei rejected Duan Ling Tian decisively after listening to his proposal. Li Fei continued to say, Keer and I had an agreement to become your brides together in the past... How can I be at ease during our wedding when shes held captive in the Fire Worship Sect in the Upper Province? Can you please promise me this, scoundrel? Ill be upset if you dont.
Why do you want to wait unnecessarily... Duan Ling Tian laughed. However, when he saw how determined Li Fei was, he gave in to her. Okay, I promise you. Although Ive not had a wedding ceremony with you and Keer, both of you are already my wives in my heart!
Li Fei did not say anything when she heard Duan Ling Tians words. She only hugged him tightly, enjoying the moment. It was as though she thought she was going to lose him in the next moment.
Scoundrel... When do you plan to go to the Upper Province? Li Fei asked after some time.
Very soon, Duan Ling Tian said with a flash in his eyes.
You must bring younger sister Keer back along with her child, Li Fei said, Unfortunately, Im useless and cant be of any help. There was a hint of self-blame when she spoke, and she had a sorry and ashamed expression on her face.
How are you useless? Dont speak like this again in the future! Without you, would I have such an adorable son? Duan Ling Tian shook his head before he shifted his gaze to his right arm that was holding his son. He found his son had already fallen asleep. Their son had fallen asleep as both of them spoke.
During the three months youre not around, Nianer has been looking for you since a month ago. He asked me if youve abandoned him... Although Ive tried explaining it to him, he still frequently wakes up shouting Father!
Li Fei felt pleased when she noticed Duan Ling Tians gaze on their son. Initially, she was worried her son would not be close to his father, Duan Ling Tian, since they had never met prior to this.
However, Li Fei did not expect Duan Nian Tian would grow so attached to Duan Ling Tian in such a short time. It was probably due to their blood connection.
Xiao Lan and Princess Bi Yao have returned, Li Fei suddenly said to Duan Ling Tian.
Ive heard about this from father. Duan Ling Tian nodded.
As Li Fei leaned against Duan Ling Tian, she said, I know currently youre not in the mood to accept other women into your life, but Xiao Lan and Princess Bi Yao are different. Since they came to Azure Cloud Mansion, theyve been looking after your mother as if shes their own mother. I know they do this because of you.
You should accept them after Keers return... I have no objections, Li Fei took the lead and said as though she was not jealous. Naturally, Li Fei was jealous. However, she was a kind woman who understood Duan Ling Tians mother, Li Rou. At the same time, she was also moved by Xiao Lan and Princess Bi Yaos affections toward Duan Ling Tian. Therefore, she had no objections.
What are you saying? I have no such intentions! Duan Ling Tian shook his head and denied while he tightened his hug on Li Fei. Li Feis understanding character had melted his heart. He felt extremely lucky to have such a wife in this lifetime. It was a great blessing to him.
They were young girls when they fell for me. It has been many years since then, they might have grown out of their feelings, Duan Ling Tian said. He did not notice the bitter smile on Li Feis face when he spoke. She knew Xiao Lan and Princess Bi Yao still had affections toward her man. She did not tell Duan Ling Tian this.
Duan Ling Tian did not leave home for the next few days. He stayed home and accompanied Li Fei and his son since he would be leaving to the Upper Province soon. Therefore, he treasured all the time he had with his wife and son.
A few days later, Rong Yuan came looking for Duan Ling Tian. Young Mansion Master, Mansion Master asked me to invite you over, Rong Yuan said, Apart from Mansion Master and Madam, Xiao Lan and Princess Bi Yao are there as well.
You cannot avoid the unavoidable!
Duan Ling Tian took a deep breath and nodded before he said, Please give me a moment, Elder Rong.
Duan Ling Tian left with Rong Yuan to the Mansion his father and mother was staying in after he spoke to Li Fei and patted his son on the head. He was rather nervous during his journey there even though he had already mentally prepared himself for this day.
In just a few moments, he would be seeing Xiao Lan and Princess Bi Yao. Duan Ling Tian knew he could not and should not avoid this matter any longer even if he was not fully prepared for it. There were certain things that one just had to face no matter what!
Father! Mother! Duan Ling Tian greeted Duan Ru Feng and Li Rou.
His gaze wandered to the two young women beside Li Rou after greeting his parents. These two young girls were both very charming. Duan Ling Tian recognized them immediately. They were none other than Xiao Lan and Princess Bi Yao!
Although many years had passed, Duan Ling Tian still managed to recognize them in an instant. Their appearance had changed, but apart from looking more mature, they still looked the same.
Xiao Lan and Princess Bi Yao looked at him as he looked at them. Duan... Duan Ling Tian... Xiao Lan and Princess Bi Yao paused for a moment before blushing.
Although many years had passed since they last met Duan Ling Tian, but to them, it seemed like yesterday when they last met.
This is due to the fact that since they arrived at Azure Cloud mansion, apart from the time they accompanied Li Rou, they spent the rest of their time focused on their cultivation. They did not notice the passage of time at all. Therefore, their feelings toward Duan Ling Tian was still like it was in the past.
This is the worst-case scenario.
When Duan Ling Tian saw Xiao Lan and Bi Yaos response when they saw him, he knew their feelings toward him were still the same. This was Duan Ling Tians biggest fear. He had to admit that although he was not willing, he felt proud in the depth of his heart that Xiao Lan and Bi Yao were still in love with him. This was evidence of his charm.
Duan Ling Tian greeted them with a smile and said, It has been a long time since we last met.
Both Xian Lan and Princess Bi Yao was so nervous that they could not even speak. In comparison to the calm Duan Ling Tian, they felt nervous when they see him.
Father. Mother... I would like to talk to them in private. Duan Ling Tian transmitted his voice to Duan Ru Feng and Li Rou when he noticed Xiao Lan and Princess Bi Yaos discomfort.
Tianer, dont you dare bully Laner and Yaoer... Or else Ill punish you! Li Rou warned Duan Ling Tian through Voice Transmission.
Take your time. Duan Ru Fengs response is short and simple compared to Li Rous Voice Transmission.
Duan Ru Feng and Li Rou made an excuse to leave after a while, leaving Duan Ling Tian alone with Xiao Lan and Bi Yao in the room. However, Xiao Lan and Bi Yao did not relax after Duan Ru Feng and Li Rou left. Instead, they became even more tensed.
I understand your affections toward me, Duan Ling Tian said bluntly when he saw both of them keeping quiet. It made both of them even more nervous.
I think both of you know its impossible for me to accept you in such a short time... Additionally, I will be leaving for the Upper Province soon. You must have heard that my fiancee, Keer, has been taken by the Fire Worship Sect in the Upper Province, Duan Ling Tian said, It is impossible for me to accept another woman before rescuing Keer since its disrespectful to her and both of you. I think youll also be disgusted with me if I did that.
Xiao Lan and Bi Yao both nodded in agreement as Duan Ling Tian spoke. They were not surprised by Duan Ling Tians words. They knew he would not develop a relationship with them before he successfully rescued Keer.
It was just like he said. If he was able to accept them at such a time, they would only look down on him and think of him as irresponsible.
Apart from that, I have another soulmate... Duan Ling Tian continued as he thought of Tian Wu.
Is she Tian Wu? Xiao Lan asked.
Youve heard of Tian Wu? Duan Ling Tian was stunned by that question.
Weve heard about Tian Wu from elder sister Feier... We know that Tian Wu had sacrificed her life for you in the past! Bi Yao said.
Bi Yao and Xiao Lan admired Feng Tian Wu very much when they heard about what she had done from Li Fei. This was also due to both Li Fei and Keers recognition of Feng Tian Wu and Duan Ling Tians affection toward her. Furthermore, both Bi Yao and Xiao Lan admired Feng Tian Wu because she was a girl that was true to herself. She was even willing to sacrifice her life for the person she loved. It was no ordinary feat.
What you said is true. Duan Ling Tian nodded as he recalled the events that happened in the past.
