230 Xue Ling and Ah Rou's feelings!

Well, I changed the cover again. I have a lot of pictures like that and I don't know what to keep. 😭😭

...

As they were watching the blue screen they saw Xuan Yan's memories, this time Zi Ji's memories came as they saw Zi Ji and Di Tian placing the young Xuan Yan in the forest.

A little later, Xue Ling came with a man beside her and there were some spirit masters behind them for protection.

Xue Ling gently leaned onto Xuan Yan's shoulders grabbing his arm as she saw this scene. This is the beginning of the day everything changed for her.

Throughout her life, Xue Ling yearned for the love and affection she never received from her parents or her husband, so she gave all of her love to her children. Seeing Xuan Yan walking around the house and smiling playfully is enough to soothe her heart.

And when he left after his bloodline awakening, an emptiness crept into her life. She longed for her son, her Yan'er. The desire to be in his presence, to wrap him in her arms, became an ache that she couldn't ignore.

Unbeknownst to her, her maternal love had changed into a love for man.

'If I am not his mother, he would've loved me.' Such thoughts raised in her mind changing her whole perspective about her son.

And when he finally confessed his love to her. It was the best day of her entire life, she cried happily in his arms.

She vividly recalled the evening he whisked her away on a romantic night date, under a sky filled with stars. The heartrending song he sang for her, standing before a captivated audience of hundreds, was etched into her memory forever.

She knows how much he loves her...

How much he cares for her.

And she also loves with all of her heart and body.

She became emotional remembering this and tears welled up in her eyes as she reminisced about her beginning days when she adopted Xuan Yan.

Xuan Yan felt her trembling hands on his arm and wrapped his arm around her shoulders in a warm hug. Xue Ling also clutched him tightly burying her face on her shoulder seeking solace in his presence.

The other women in the room watched as Xue Ling's emotions spilled over, softening their gaze as they witnessed the deep bond between mother and son.

"Y-Yaner... *hick*"  Xuan Yan patted her head delicately "Don't cry, Ling'er..." He gently raised her head, his fingers brushing away the tears that cascaded down her cheeks.

With a gentle touch, he playfully puffed up her cheeks, a mischievous grin dancing on his lips. "Why are you crying, I promised you that I'd never make you cry again."

*chuckle* A soft, heartfelt chuckle escaped from Xue Ling's lips as she watched Xuan Yan playfully teasing her. She moved her hands from his shoulders, her fingers finding their way around his neck.

"I am just so happy...Yan'er.." her eyes crescented overflowing with emotions looking at the tender golden eyes and the love brimming in his eyes.

How lucky she was to get a great son like him.

No, not only her son... He was more than that to her.

Her man, her husband, her happiness, and her everything.

A beautiful smile played up on her lips as she leaned in taking his lips in a kiss. She took a soft bite of his lips his lips tasting it.

*slurp* She delicately sucked his upper lips and Xuan Yan too complied with her returning the kiss.

They both retracted the kiss and Xue Ling opened her eyes and smiled softly brushing his long white hair. But her eyes subconsciously fell on Xiao Wu who was on Xuan Yan's lap with a dumbfounded face (;ↀ⌓ↀ).

Hm? Only then did she realize the room is silent and her eyes wandered to other women in the room who were also looking at her (Ծ_Ծ)

Ah Yin and Mo Xing sighed simultaneously and they looked at each other and couldn't help but chuckle being amused by the situation.

It soon hit Xue Ling and she panicked hurriedly waving her hand "U-U-m...I ..Y-Yan'er is.. i mean."

Xuan Yan giggled "My mom is quite clumsy..." Xue Ling was so embarrassed to look at the women who viewed her as Mother-in-law and she again buried her face on his shoulders "Yan'er, help me..." she whispered.

-_- "She was so clumsy that she would kiss her son?" Zhu Zhuqing asked blinking her eyes as she came out of the shock. Liu Erlong looked at Xuan Yan "Yan..tell us what is happening..."

Xuan Yan just smiled and hugged Xue Ling, running his fingers through her delicate brown hair.

Seeing the smile, they all understood and they were bewildered "Don't tell me you..."

"wooed your mom too?"

*smooch* Xuan Yan kissed his Mom's head "What's wrong with that? I love my mom too..."

(ㆆ_ㆆ) The women watched him blankly as Xue Ling nuzzled her face on him. Ah Yin spoke "Yeah, nothing wrong with that. She is not Husband's real mom. So it's perfectly alright."

Long Yeyue also sighed "Yeah, Ah Yin is right. Even though it is a little surprise, for me everything the Lord does is right."

Ma Xiaotao also nodded her head "Yeah..."

Liu Erlong and Zhu Zhuqing looked at each other and sighed in their hearts "Womanizer..."

Tang Yueha spoke "So...she is both Mother-in-law and sister..."

"yeah..."

*chuckle*

...

In the evening~

*smooch* Ah Yin gave a tender kiss on Xuan Yan's forehead as she caressed his hair, who is lying on her lap. Long Yeyue took his legs from the sofa and placed them on her lap with a smile and Ma Xiaotao sat beside her.

On the other side of the sofa, Xue Ling is surrounded by Zhu Zhuqing, Xiao Wu, Tang Yueha and Liu Erlong who are storming her by asking questions about Xuan Yan when he was younger.

"Your name is Xue...but why is his name Xuan?"

"Oh, that he named himself?"

"H-Huh?"

"He said his name was Xuan Yan when I took him from the forest..."

In the kitchen~

Ah Rou and Mo Xing were preparing tea for everyone. Ah Rou spoke apologetically "Sorry, Mo Xing... you are like a guest but you are preparing..."

With a chuckle, Mo Xing shook her head "We are sisters and the women of the same men, so I am not a guest... and I like cooking or preparing tea for Yan." reaching the end she smiled lovingly.

Ah Rou was flustered hearing this and hastened to clarify the situation "I-I am not Yan's woman."

Mo Xing's eyebrows raised in surprise "Then you are...?". Ah Rou sighed "I am Xiao Wu's mom."

Mo Xing squinted her eyes, "Xiao Wu? That braid-haired girl?" Ah Rou nodded her head wryly, braid haired girl?

Mo Xing spoke with amusement lacing her voice "I thought you were also Yan's woman since you are here with him and look beautiful."

I look beautiful? "Well, he is my daughter's man, how can I go after him? Haha..." Ah Rou said with a chuckle, attempting to mask the internal turmoil she was experiencing. Her feelings for Yan were becoming increasingly complex.

(-ᴗ-) Mo Xing's body flinched upon hearing this. Her daughter also loves Xuan Yan. But a smile took over her lips, it was because of her daughter she got to meet Yan, the man who had changed her life.

Her eyes softened as she reminisced about him, and she spoke with a tender note in her voice "You know... Yan saved me. I and my daughter were in the backwaters of Spirit City.... and"

*gasp* Ah Rou was shocked and she hurriedly intervened "W-Wait, wait, wait...You have a daughter?"

Looking at her stupefied face, Mo Xing nodded with a giggle "Yeah...and she also loves Yan."

H-Huh? Ah Rou's eyes trembled in extreme shock hearing this. Both Mom and daughter... love the same person? T-This...

Her emotions turmoiled hearing this and she was at a loss for words but she gripped her palm and her eyes wavered nervously "Y-Your daughter, what did your daughter say about this?"

Mo Xing continued smiling looking at the milk boiling "I was also scared to face her. But with my courage and Yan's words...I confronted her and she said she was also okay with that as long as I was happy."

"What a great daughter I have, right? Haha..."

Mo Xing just chuckled not knowing Ah Rou's mind was completely in chaos. Suddenly she got this hope...little hope.

She can also be together with Yan j-just like Mo Xing, right?.

But.. she has to talk with Xiao Wu first.

W-Will she accept that?

Her own mom loving her man?

Mo Xing continued "As I said, Yan saved us and gave us a new house near his. To be honest, he completely changed our lives." Ah Rou came out of her thoughts looking at Mo Xing.

Mo Xing raised her hand "Can you see? I am level 17 right now. You might wonder, I look old but why I am at such a low level."

Ah Ru blinked her eyes "Y-You don't look old, but the level is certainly low for your age."

This caused Mo Xing to laugh "Yeah, I awakened my martial spirit like one and half years ago."

Eh? "How can someone awaken martial spirit at this age?"

A beautiful smile etched across Mo Xing's lips as she spoke softly "Yan, it's him. I am an ordinary human with no martial spirit. So I would soon die because of old age."

"But Yan promised me that he will surely find a cure for it. I thought that he was just joking..."

"But, he soon found it and cured me and Ling. We both awakened martial spirits. I don't how or what price he paid for that extreme treasure..."

"But I know one thing..."

"He loves me..."

"I am being loved by a man like Yan who could even do the impossible for his lovers."

Seeing the happy smile on Mo Xing's face, Ah Rou's heart trembled "E-Even I..." she mumbled.

Mo Xing heard a low mutter from Ah Rou "Hm?"

Ah Rou spoke "Even me. He also saved me. I was actually dead, killed by the Spirit Hall. But for my daughter and her happiness...he resurrected me, bringing me back to life."

This dumbfounded Mo Xing, bringing back from the dead? T-That's just impossible.

But in the presence of Yan, the impossible became possible. Her laughter bubbled up in sheer amusement "He really does the impossible things for his lovers. Hahaha."

"He is just wonderful."

Ah Rou glanced down as her eyes wavered "Yeah..wonderful..." she whispered under her breath.

She looked away to hide the growing blush on her cheeks as her lips softly uttered "Yan..." a sweet smile taking over her lips.

Mo Xing watched Ah Rou, a knowing smile tugging at her lips. She understood the complex emotions that Yan had stirred within her, and she felt a sense of camaraderie with Ah Rou.

In that quiet moment, as they continued to prepare tea together, the unspoken understanding between Ah Rou and Mo Xing deepened. They were both women who had been given a second chance at life, thanks to the man they both loved.
