307 A Long Time Ago
Ling Tian raised his eyebrows when he noticed the look of the four beautiful women in Yun Mengxin, specifically in the beautiful robe that she was wearing at this time.
"Now that I remember." Zhang Xinya changed her gaze to Ling Tian and narrowed her lovely eyes: "Why do you have so many of those beautiful women's clothes with you? Could it be that you have another woman out there in your world that you haven't told us about?!" She subtly tapped Ling Tian's chest with her index finger as she tried to smile at him.
Zhang Xinya showed a smile that was not quite a smile as she blurted out the words, avoiding raising her voice any further, especially in the last part, sending shivers down Ling Tian's spine.
Not only did she stare at Ling Tian, the others looked at him intently as well. They had received a garment from him, but then realized that he seemed to have more women's clothing with him, both little girls and young women.
They could understand the clothing for little girls since he had said he cared for children in his world, but they did not understand why he had women's robes.
Therefore it was strange and rare for a man to have several beautiful women's garments with him.
Ling Tian could only force a smile when he noticed the questioning looks they were giving him. The feelings of envy were also expressed in their eyes when they saw Yun Mengxin.
Even Mu Shuiruo who had always been so gentle and tender now looked at him with her eyes narrowed transmitting the same feeling as her sisters!
There were only two ways to calm the jealousy and interrogation of these girls, so Ling Tian chose one of them.
Searching quickly in his Little World, Ling Tian pulled out some jade boxes.
Huh?
The women were surprised when they saw that Ling Tian took out several boxes of the same type of jade as the jade plaques that were used to share information.
Opening one of the boxes, Ling Tian smiled uncomfortably and said, "Those are all the dresses I have with me, you can have them."
The girls were stunned when they saw several sets of clothes inside the jade box he had opened.
As if they were moths obsessively approaching the light in the darkness, these girls could not help but approach and take several dresses in their hands, opening the other boxes and choosing dresses even to the point of exchanging the dresses between each of them because of their own styles and colors.
Even Yun Mengxin couldn't help but come over and take some robes as well.
Ling Tian was shocked to see this.
He thought that his two girls were unique as they always got quite excited every time he gave them something, especially beautiful robes made of such fine and elegant silks. But now it seems that it is every woman's instinct to get so excited and act out when they find something beautiful like these clothes.
Lan Yin watched with her pretty little eyes the commotion of her big sisters, feeling that she also wanted more clothes of her size.
"I would not forget my little Yinyin."
Lan Yin turned to see Ling Tian when she had heard his voice and immediately saw that he too had taken out a huge box of jade. She was surprised when she saw that there were beautiful robes that seemed to be her size in it.
"Thank you, Master!" She smiled brightly and hugged Ling Tian before taking the robes in her hands and looking at them.
Ling Tian sighed with relief as he watched his women focus on the robes.
He had bought these various beautiful robes because of the quality of the fabrics for his two female disciples a few days before those guys set him up and he fell into this lower plane. The smallest clothes he had given to Lan Yin were clothes that he had also bought for his two girls precisely when they were very small, but which for some reason he had forgotten to give to them at that time.
Although there were still a few more boxes, these were not available for him to take.
Hm?
Ling Tian narrowed his eyes when there was a small box among the ones he had given to Lan Yin.
He stared at the inside of the box once he opened it. His eyes stood still and his eyelids trembled slightly, only looking at what was inside before he grabbed the object inside.
The girls soon finished choosing the different types of robes in the boxes and put them in their storage rings. Their faces were extremely smiling.
However, Zhang Xinya did not forget what he had asked Ling Tian before.
The memory of a woman added to their instincts is amazing to the point that they will not forget a single detail!
"I haven't forgotten that you have to answer me why you have all these beautiful robes-"
She was storing her robes in her own space ring when she turned to look at Ling Tian, but she did not finish talking when she saw him.
The other women noticed this too and looked worriedly at Ling Tian when they saw him get an object in his hands and above all they noticed that his face showed a nostalgic and melancholic expression.
"Husband-"
Mu Shuiruo was interrupted when Yun Mengxin raised a hand to stop her, putting her long, soft index finger to her own lips, expressing that no one should say anything.
Ling Tian's deep feelings were reaching her at this moment.
Everyone could see that he was holding in his hands what appeared to be a small, light blue-green gourd.
Ling Tian looked at this object without taking his eyes off it for a second; unconsciously his hands trembled slightly as he held this exquisite gourd that exuded a subtle but striking design. His heart began to beat a little stronger, but this time, the beats were of sadness and of guilt towards himself.
"Xiaoyi... Fei..."
A faint murmur came from his mouth as the faces of two beautiful women completely occupied his mind, beginning to feel heavier and heavier with time. He did not even notice that he had sat on the grass, with his sad look not leaving the gourd. His mind was remembering what had happened many years ago, especially what had happened that day when they had disappeared forever...
Not long after, Ling Tian felt soft, tender hands slowly covering his own hands, bringing him out of his depression.
When he looked up, he could see a pair of beautiful eyes that were transmitting an immense love, a tender sweetness and a feeling of comfort and encouragement to him.
Yun Mengxin was smiling at him tenderly and lovingly while trying to convey her own feelings to him.
Ling Tian could not help but form a grateful smile as he felt Yun Mengxin's immense and deep feelings in his heart.
She wanted to let him know that she was with him, supporting him in everything...
Ling Tian took a deep breath and then looked at the other girls who were still watching him with worry.
What am I doing?
Why haven't I told them the truth?
I'm really repeating the same thing again...
Ling Tian had been diverting the subject several times when they asked him something related to his identity or past, as well as a few moments ago on the issue of women's robes, but now he didn't want to delay any longer.
Although he was afraid of their reactions to his identity and so on, this really was not trusting them completely even though they were his women...
Yun Mengxin smiled tenderly at him and then she turned to her sisters, but before she could say anything, Ling Tian stopped her.
He knew that Yun Mengxin wanted to tell them that he was okay...
Ling Tian really couldn't ask for more from this woman who was supporting him and respecting his decisions even up to this point. He shook his head even more trying to get those depressing feelings out of his body.
Yun Mengxin was a little surprised at first but she could instantly tell what he wanted to do because of the connection they both shared.
Ling Tian smiled softly, trying to make the girls not worry. He waved them to sit near him.
They all sat close to him. Yun Mengxin was beside him as she held his hand.
Ling Tian did not know what to say first, but he saw that Yun Mengxin nodded gently to him, expressing her feelings that he should say what his heart felt.
He took another quiet breath before saying:
"A long, long time ago, a man and a woman found a small unconscious child in a place near their home..."
