Chapter 136 - Epilogue

Ling Yue looked at the Ling mansion's entrance repeatedly. Her hands were wringing Xi Jian's fingers.

Xi Jian who was still exchanging conversations with several people released Ling Yue's grasp and embraced her. He rubbed her arm.

"Honey ... calm down ..." Xi Jian whispered in her ear.

Ling Yue turned her head and smiled awkwardly at Xi Jian's companion. But few minutes later she was restless again. Xi Jian ended his conversation and dragged his wife to the end of the corridor, where people's eyes would not come to them.

"W-what?"

Ling Yue blinked many times to distract herself but failed. Xi Jian placed a hand beside her head and squeezed Ling Yue's slim body. Xi Jian's scent filled Ling Yue's nasal cavity.

"You know ... I start to dislike this plan."

"What do you mean?"

Xi Jian looked down. His lips were only inches from Ling Yue. Ling Yue involuntarily held her breath. Her thoughts that had been wary stopped for a moment as Xi Jian began to crush her lips.

"Mommy!"

Xi Jian pulled himself and clicked his tongue. The little witch who always interfered with their moment was in her uncle's arms not far from them. She looked at Xi Jian while frowning.

"Daddy! No kiss kiss!"

The two-year-old girl was clinging to her mother's feet. Xi Jian wiped Ling Yue's messy lipstick on his lips and squatted.

"How many times did I say you were forbidden to disturb when mommy was with me?" Xi Jian narrowed his eyes.

Ling Yue who had returned to earth hit Xi Jian on the shoulder and raised her little princess.

"How many times have I told you not to scare your child?"

Xi Jiya smiled triumphantly as she wrapped her arms around Ling Yue's neck. Xi Jian only grumbled before pinching her daughter's nose. His gaze clashed with Ling Huansheng.

"What?" Xi Jian asked irritated.

Ling Huansheng looked contemptuously before saying 'Childish!' He then called Ling Yue. "Come on, they come."

Ling Yue, who had forgotten, now remembered the purpose of today's event. She handed Xi Jiya into her husband's hands before following Ling Huansheng to the ballroom where the rest of her family had gathered.

Today is the second anniversary of Xi Jiya's birthday. Someone promised to come if today arrives. Ling Yue, who had not seen the figure in front of her for almost three years, immediately ran and crashed into the man who was the center of attention today.

"Feng ge!"

Ling Yue hugged her brother tightly. Tears spilled in her cheeks.

"Feng ge ... Feng ge ... Feng gee ..."

"Yueyue!" Ling Feng hugged her back. His eyes were fixed on the figure behind Ling Yue who was carrying a little girl.

"Welcome back." Xi Jian patted his back.

In the past three years, Ling Yue thought Ling Feng had only gone on his mission longer than usual. Nobody told her what had happened to Ling Feng until she overheard Xi Jian contacting him.

The first year Ling Feng left, Ling Yue was pregnant. Ling Feng asked him not to tell his condition so as not to burden Ling Yue's mind. He asked Xi Jian to keep it a secret until his rehabilitation period was over, but Xi Jian periodically contacted him.

Ling Yue held him longer. She let go of her arms when Ling Huang coughed.

"You will make the person next to him jealous."

"What?" Ling Yue tilted her head.

Ling Yue stared at Ling Feng in confusion. Ling Feng cleared his throat.

"Let me introduce you. Keiko, this is my younger sister. Ling Yue. Yueyue, This is Tanazawa Keiko ..." He cleared his throat again before continuing. "... my girlfriend."

All eyes were on Keiko then Ling Feng. The atmosphere that had full emotion suddenly became awkward.

"Daddy, who is this person?"

Xi Jiya's voice was heard in silence. Ling Feng turned his attention to the little girl in Xi Jian's arms. His face smiled warmly.

"Hello, this is our first time meeting, but I've heard a lot about you. My name is Ling Feng, your first uncle." Ling Feng held out his hand. Xi Jian who saw that turned his body.

"Xiao Jiya, don't mind him, he's just a stranger."

Ling Feng's face twitched. He almost cursed 'bastard ...' Xi Jian only nodded briefly to Tanazawa Keiko and headed for Zou Ci.

"Please keep this little devil from wandering around."

Zou Ci smiled cautiously when receiving his boss's daughter.

"Are you bothering your father again?" Zou Ci asked Xi Jiya while taking her out. Xi Jiya just giggled. Her father called her a little devil only if she bothered him when he was her mother.

Returning to the ball room, Xi Jian pulled Ling Yue who was still hugging Ling Feng and pulled out his handkerchief.

"Stop crying." He wiped Ling Yue's cheek carefully. "Why are you crying because of another man in front of me?" His voice sounded annoyed.

Ling Feng could not hold his hand and punched Xi Jian's shoulder. "What a welcome from you!"

Xi Jian looked at Ling Feng's feet. "How's that?"

Ling Yue followed Xi Jian's gaze. One more thing that caused her to tremble at the time, Ling Feng lost one leg. But Ling Yue saw her walk in without a problem using his fake feet.

"Yeah, good. Thanks to her."

Ling Yue saw the expression on his brother's face soften as he looked at the woman next to him.

"Maybe it's time for us to get married too." Ling Huang put his arm around Ling Huansheng's shoulder.

In the park....

"Xiao Jiya, come here! Let's play with your great grandfather!" Xi Zihao waved when he saw Zou Ci holding his great grandchild.

"Xiao Jiya, don't you prefer me? Come here." Across from Xi Zihao, Ling Yujin waved.

Zou Ci awkwardly bowed to the two elders. "Mr. Ling, Mr. Xi."

"Bring here Xiao Jiya, Mr. Zou." Xi Zihao ordered Zou Ci but his words were immediately overwritten by Ling Yujin.

"What are you trying to do, old man? She's my great-granddaughter, of course she have to play with me!"

Xi Zihao snorted. "I don't know if you have dementia? Obviously she's a 'Xi' what does your great-grandchild mean?"

"There is a 'Ling' blood flowing in her body, then she is our 'Ling woman'."

Xi Zihai stood up and tapped his wand on the table. "Ling woman?" He snorted again. "Don't talk about it anymore! Your family is cursed! I don't want Xiao Jiya to end up like Jiang Yue! Did you forget? Besides, the last woman in your family also ended when she became a 'Xi'."

Ling Yujin's wrinkled face twitched. Although annoyed, he could not refute the words of Xi Zihao. Instead, he just glared.

Zou Ci secretly brought Xi Jiya away. "Miss Jiya, do you want ice cream?"

"Of course uncle Zou! I also want strawberry pudding!"

"Okay, but promise one thing, Miss."

Xi Jiya's round eyes stared at Zou Ci. "What is that?"

"I'll give you ice cream, but don't tell your father or mother, okay?"

Xi Jiya looked at Zou Ci, a second later she nodded and chuckled. "Promise, uncle Zou Ci!"
