Chapter 626: 626

It was only after a long time that Shui QianRou finally woke up from her reverie and hurriedly asked, ”Sister Xue, do you really mean it?”

Li Xue smiled as she replied, ”Whether it's real or false, can you not tell them apart? That mountain peak has been standing there for tens of thousands of years, so how could it suddenly collapse for no reason at such a critical juncture? Furthermore, Ling Jian and Feng Mo's group played a part in this, and you can know the truth by just confirming it with them . Is there a need for me to lie to you?”

Shui QianRou, Yu BingYan, and Xiao YanXue all fell silent immediately .

Ever since she came over, the war between Ling Tian and the Xiao Family was a knot in Xiao YanXue's heart . She couldn't help but still have a little bit of anxiousness and grudge . However, upon hearing this news, a sense of bliss suddenly occupied her heart .

”So it turns out, that Tian'ge has always been sacrificing for me! But instead, I've . . . I've really disappointed him . ” Thinking along these lines, she did not speak further, but instead, tears rolled down her face .

Shui QianRou acted in the same manner, her whole face red with guilt .

Li Xue pressed her brows together as she replied, ”What are you girls doing? I'm saying these only because I don't wish for all of you to misjudge him . So long as everybody is aware of what he has done for us, it will be fine . Just look at the two of you, even openly crying . Imagine what would happen if that sentimental fool came in? He would be so heartbroken at the sight of you two, and if that's not all, he would even come after me for revenge . What do you want me to do then?! Anyway, he has done all this for your sake, and this is his way of embodying his message of love . You all should feel happy because of this, instead of crying!”

While choking back her tears, Xiao YanXue replied, ”Sister Xue, I, I am just too happy . . . so happy that I cried . . . . ”

Li Xue was at a loss for words . It was only after a while that she said, ”Then today, let us sisters enjoy appreciating the snow and wine . The wine today was specially brewed by Tian'ge, and it's called Maiden's Heart . I believe the meaning in this does not need to be said further . Today, I'll make it clear to all sisters here, that Tian'ge works so hard is purely to steal all of our 'maidens' hearts'!

Meaning cannot be understood without explaining, and a conversation cannot be understood without speaking . Now that Li Xue had pierced through the veil covering this reasoning, all of the women present fell into silence . All of them truly felt the heartfelt effort that Ling Tian had put in for them, and their eyes began to redden as the tears began to flow .

With her intelligence, upon observing this scenario, Li Xue knew that none of the ladies present would have any knots within their hearts regarding this point . Thus, this was the time to strike while the iron was hot! She immediately exchanged a glance with Ling Chen . Some matters needed Ling Chen to speak instead, because while she was not the oldest, her position would always be the first! This was something no one could surpa.s.s, nor would any of the ladies present dare to! Even the proud and arrogant Li Xue would not dare to do so . Simply because, if anyone tried to do so, they would immediately come face to face with Ling Tian's full wrath!

No one was willing to incur the wrath of Ling Tian! Nor did they have the intention!

Noting the glance shot towards her, Ling Chen coughed twice, before softly saying, ”Little sister BingYan, little sister Rou, the two of you will be returning to your various families in a short period of time for the generational battle . Inside the battle, you two are even the pre-destined enemies, with the aim of fighting each other to the death . Is that true?”

Yu BingYan and Shui QianRou suddenly raised their heads . After exchanging a look, they remained silent, finally nodding .

Ling Chen's tone became slightly more solemn as she continued, ”Right now, young n.o.ble wants me to pa.s.s down the message that no matter which one of you, no harm is allowed to befall you two . Not even the slightest injury!”

The two of them still did not speak, only carrying expressions of respect as they quietly listened .

Ling Chen slowly continued, ”After this, I'll draft out a separate practice field for the two of you . What we need to do next is a lot, but also very simple . It will be to familiarize yourselves with the skills of your opponent, every last one of them! After that, both of you are to come out with ways to counter them . This point has to be completed within five days! The Yu Family is already here to escort sister BingYan back, and Young n.o.ble says that he can at the most delay them for another five days . Thus, this is the only span of time you two have left . ”

Time was tight, and both Yu BingYan's and Shui QianRou's face turned solemn and heavy .

Outside the window, the snow continued to float about, as though it was endless . . .

The ladies who have had all their heart knots untied began rearranging the cups and chopsticks again, before serving up the wine and snacks . The ladies then drank till they were dead drunk, leaning upon each other for support, before contentedly pa.s.sing out and sleeping . . .

Only Li Xue, with her left hand around Xiao YanXue's head, and her right hand supporting Shui QianRou, stared at the fluttering snow in the air . She sighed deeply, and a hint of tears appeared in her eyes even as she muttered, ”Tian'ge, this matter that you were most troubled about, I've helped you to solve it . You . . . are you happy?”

She silently sat there looking at the window, sighing ceaselessly in her heart . As a female from the modern era, not only did the husband have to be faithful to the wife, but he even had to go on bended knee to propose before the female would consider the marriage . To think that right now, not only did she have to share her husband, but she was even required to come out and solve the problem of her husband's concubines! Even if she did not say it out loud, Li Xue was rather dissatisfied in her heart . However, thinking about the love that she had pursued across two lifetimes, as well as the miserable fate she had given him in her previous life, Li Xue immediately began to feel ashamed in her heart .

Forget it, treat it as what she owed him from the past life . This enemy yet also her loved one . . .
