355 How much he loves Marlene

Zhiyuan recalls the time he persuaded Xiao XiRan to help him. This was after he had received a call from MouJin that she was commanded to hunt Li FuJin. But she had no idea why would the grand master suddenly want to find Li FuJin.Therefore, Zhiyuan immediately called Xiao XiRan to ask for his help. He wanted to enter the forbidden forest without being exposed that he was helping Li FuJin.Because of Xiao XiRan's curiosity about Xi'an's father, he made a condition for Zhiyuan to tell him who is the child's father in exchange for his help.Zhiyuan had no choice and replied with annoyance while he looked at Xiao XiRan who is having fun playing with Xian. He took a deep breath and said "he is Marlene's son.."Xiao XiRan: "!!!"Xiao XiRan was stunned. He felt like he was hit by a thousand lightning. His face instantly turned pale as he turned to look at Zhiyuan with eyes wide in shock.He tried to speak, but his voice shook. "Ma... Marlene? How… It's... It's not a nice joke..." Xiao XiRan tried to laugh but his face continued to lose it's color."Joke? Do you really think I'm joking?" Zhiyuan said with disdainful voice and swiftly grabbed Xiao XiRan's collar. "Are you trying to deny your own son?!"Xiao XiRan: "!!!"Zhiyuan reminded him through gritted teeth, "Have you forgotten that she's the only woman you slept with after imprisoning her in your own room for six months?" He seethed in anger.

Xiao XiRan's face turned lifeless. Even though he knew that Marlene is a witch, he chained her in his room in Black Garden less than three years ago.Despite his interest and observation of Jie MeiFen that started on their first years, Xiao XiRan met Marlene in his second year because of Zhiyuan.Making her as his own forced wife, he did not sleep with another woman aside from Marlene. But she suddenly ran away when she had a chance to escape.Xiao XiRan had no idea that Marlene got pregnant. He tried to find her but failed after he heard from Zhiyuan that she returned to Medieval land.

Knowing that Medieval land is hidden, Xiao XiRan still tried to take her back after convincing Zhiyuan nonstop to tell him where it was.

Unfortunately, Xiao XiRan did not pass the test in the Reverie forest despite trying multiple times until he was finally banned to enter the place.

Just like Jie MeiFen, Marlene never had any interest on Xiao XiRan when she was in the mortal world after she had an agreement with Zhiyuan.As for Marlene, she did not expect for Xiao XiRan to fancy her deeply until he suddenly took her away, imprisoned her in his room, and forced her to be with him.With the help of a Tiānshàng chains, Marlene wasn't able to escape from Xiao XiRan while he took her first by force and became his woman for six months.When she found out that she was pregnant, she was frightened of having a child with mixed blood since Xiao XiRan is not a normal human. Yet, she has had no plans on aborting the child. How did she escape? Mo YuMin helped her to hide. He can't let her suffer while she was pregnant. Marlene left the Black Garden when Xiao XiRan was in the university for his monthly evaluation.There were no words that came out from Xiao XiRan's mouth. He turned his head to look back at the little boy, but his eyes watered after remembering Marlene.After recalling what he had done to Marlene, and watching Xi'an playing beside him, a tear suddenly rolled from Xiao XiRan's eyes that made Zhiyuan let go of his collar.However, Xiao XiRan did not move at all. He remembered how much he loves Marlene, despite of her being a witch. He was so afraid to lose her that time. This fear made him imprison Marlene in his room and took her innocence forcefully after being jealous of Zhiyuan whom she always called for help.
