“If he couldn’t find it, he probably wouldn’t have come back…” Mei Xue Yan said in a light voice. “However, there’s another matter that I need to tell everyone…”
Although Mei Xue Yan was speaking in a very formal manner, Jun Mo Xie still shot her a thankful glance when no one was looking…
Mei Xue Yan snorted coldly, ignoring him as she continued. “Us sisters have gone through many things together, and everyone had already accepted each other! Although it isn’t anything strange for a man to have a few wives and concubines, there is still a limit that us girls can accept…”
Everyone nodded in agreement at this.
“But this time, although Mo Xie had found the spirit herbs, something that shouldn’t have happened had still happened in that process…” Mei Xue Yan said coldly. “Without obtaining the approval and opinion of us sisters… he actually secretly… had some relations with the little princess of the Misty Illusory Manor, Miao Xiao Miao… Although this matter could be said to have happened as a result of many coincidences, but… the matter should not have been handled like that. It should have at least gone through a discussion with us…”
“Ah… so that’s what happened…” Everyone widened their eyes with realization.
So this was the reason that everybody had been gathered together…
In simpler words, Young Master Jun had cheated outside…
The girls looked at each other, and they lowered their heads together. No one spoke first.
The first one to speak would be hated by Young Master Jun… but what should they do then? Besides, although they had been acknowledged by the Jun Family, they hadn’t actually conducted the formal wedding ceremony…
Did they really have the qualifications to speak or be angry with him?
But one thing that cannot be denied was that the girls all felt a sour feeling in their hearts now…
At the same time, all of them scolded in their hearts. This fickle hearted fellow! There are so many beautiful flowers at home, but he still went out and picked up some wild gra.s.ses, attracting women everywhere… Is it really true that the flowers at one’s own home are never as fragrant as those outside?!
Among all the girls, only Dugu Xiao Yi and Ke’er did not feel much about it. Dugu Xiao Yi only thought to herself: It doesn’t seem to be a very great matter? My grandpa had tens of women, and my Second Uncle, Third Uncle also… isn’t it a very normal thing for men to have many wives and concubines? Why is Big brother Mo Xie’s face so troubled? What’s the big deal about this!
Ke’er was even more exaggerated with her thoughts. Our Young Master is such an exceptional and talented person who is destined to be unrivalled in this world. It’s a natural thing that girls will be attracted to him. If those girls outside didn’t fall for him, they would be blind.
From the looks of it, these two lolitas did not even feel the slightest bit of jealousy. In fact, they seemed to be somewhat proud…
As for Princess Ling Meng, who was sitting in a corner with her head lowered, her heart was in a state of chaos right now. Why? Why was I also called here? These girls are all women that Jun Mo Xie had acknowledged, or his wives in name… he’d never even said that he’d accepted me before… What should I do? Should I leave immediately?
But after thinking like this for a long time, she could not bear to move her feet. Ai, even if I… thickened my face and stayed here a little longer, I can at least see him for a second longer…
The moment Mei Xue Yan finished with her words, she was greeted with a field of silence. Laughing bitterly, she said, “So what should we do? Everyone, you should at least say something right?”
The girls looked at each other, but still didn’t say anything.
After a long time, Guan Qing Han coughed drly and spoke up first. “How is… the looks of that girl? And how’s her character?” As she said that, she glanced at Jun Mo Xie. “Mo Xie is always very principled when it comes to such matters, and he likely wouldn’t be moved just because of l.u.s.t. I’m guessing that there’s some other reasons in this? Why don’t we let him tell us himself… We’ll decide after hearing the entire story!”
“That is good too.” Everyone nodded.
A light smile appeared at the corner of Mei Xue Yan’s lips. The reason she’d called all the sisters together was precisely to help Jun Mo Xie resolve his problem. Everyone would know about this matter sooner or later, so now was as good a time as any to gather everybody together and reveal it. Furthermore, since everyone was here together, as long as one person said that she didn’t mind, the others would be unlikely to object as well.
No one would want to seem like a small minded and jealous woman in Jun Mo Xie’s eyes.
Moreover, they hadn’t even been married formally yet…
Mei Xue Yan’s move may seem strict and harsh, but it was actually the best method to resolve Jun Mo Xie’s current headache! What kind of intelligence did Jun Mo Xie have? He naturally could understand the reason behind this, which was why he was looking at Mei Xue Yan so gratefully…
However, Mei Xue Yan still rolled her eyes fiercely. At the same time, Young Master Jun heard a faint voice in his ear. “This is the only time! No more! Otherwise… you can forget about getting into the nuptial chamber in this lifetime!”
Jun Mo Xie s.h.i.+vered heavily as he heard this. This punishment was a little too harsh, ah? And this punishment seemed to be including everybody as well…
“The matter began like this…” Jun Mo Xie hurriedly explained. However, as he spoke, he felt somewhat uncomfortable… To narrate his love story with another girl in front of all his women… this feeling… was really too strange…
When they heard that Jun Mo Xie had been targeted by the Zhan Family in the Misty Illusory Manor, the girls were incredibly infuriated, hating that they couldn’t be there as well to beat those two little gigolos up ruthlessly… Naturally, when they heard that Miao Xiao Miao had stood out like that for him, they thought much better of her…
Only when they came to the part when the compet.i.tion with the Zhan Family was concluded with his win, did they feel more appeased…
The numerous pairs of eyes grew colder as they stared at Jun Mo Xie. With you flaunting so much, displaying so much talent that no one could match… that Miao Xiao Miao is not blind either; it would be strange if she did not fancy you! What is this if it isn’t actively seducing women and courting b.u.t.terflies…
Towards the end, when they heard how Miao Xiao Miao’s heart had been broken and she even spat out her heart’s blood and fell into a coma because Jun Mo Xie had harshly rejected her, all of them sighed heavily with an ‘ah’ sound as a look of empathy appeared on their faces…
These girls could all understand this feeling very personally. If they were rejected like that when they loved him so deeply… at the same time, there was a high possibility of being married off to someone whom they didn’t like as a marriage offering… they couldn’t help but feel a s.h.i.+ver down their spines at the thought…
This was really a situation where they wouldn’t have any hopes in life, ah…
By this point, the att.i.tudes of all the girls had already changed. They even wanted to scream at Jun Mo Xie to quickly go and save Miao Xiao Miao and had already forgotten that this girl was their so-called “wild-flower”. One had to say, girls were indeed emotional creatures…
When they heard that Jun Mo Xie had ultimately gone and saved Miao Xiao Miao, Guan Qing Han and the rest heaved a sigh of relief together… After that, they heard how Jun Mo Xie had met one of the four original disciples of the Nine Nether First Young Master… and at the birthday of the Manor Lord, Miao Xiao Miao had attracted a Heavenly Tribulation after eating a pill from him…
These events were all exceptionally shocking and the girls were kept on the edges of their seats…
Since it was such a precarious situation, in those circ.u.mstances where she was so incredibly touched, it would be strange if nothing happened between them…
After Miao Xiao Miao finally pa.s.sed through the Heavenly Tribulation successfully, and the two of them entered the Spiritual Herbal Gardens the next day… As he spoke, the girls listened attentively as if they were listening to an interesting story…
Dugu Xiao Yi, Ke’er, and Han Yan Meng were hugging their knees cutely and listening with wide eyes. When Jun Mo Xie came to the end of his story, the three of them asked together. “What happened after that?”
Jun Mo Xie nearly fainted.
Mei Xue Yan, Guan Qing Han and the rest rolled their eyes and sighed. These three la.s.ses, did they really think that they were listening to a story? This was a love rival from the outside ah! Although it was a very pitiable love rival…
But quite clearly, the thoughts of these girls were no longer on this topic or on Miao Xiao Miao. All of them were rather calm: the wood had already been crafted into a boat, and the uncooked rice had already been turned into white rice. What else could they say? They could only accept it. Fortunately… from Jun Mo Xie’s words, this little sister Xiao Miao sounded like a pretty nice person whom they could get along with…
The cheating matter had basically already come to an end…
Jun Mo Xie sighed heavily, his heart still conflicted. You girls may be fine, but Miao Xiao Miao still doesn’t know that I’m Jun Mo Xie… this is another emotional knot that I still need to resolve…
Right now, everyone was most concerned about another matter: “Mo Xie… does that mean that the Seven Colored Holy Fruits and the Exquisite Lotus are with you now?”
With those words, all their eyes shone brightly…
This was a miraculous thing of legends that could increase 500 years worth of Xuan Qi and retain a person’s youth for 500 years ah…
When they thought of how they could live for longer while also retaining their youthful looks, even an icy girl like Guan Qing Han could not remain composed…
As long as it was a girl, there were none who would mind being pretty!
“Does that mean… that everybody has no opinions toward Miao Xiao Miao?” Mei Xue Yan seized the chance and asked.
At this point, no one could be bothered with Miao Xiao Miao… Besides… was there any use even if they were to object? Their man had already been split into so many portions; it wasn’t a big deal with he was shared with one more person…
The most important thing right now, was… the Exquisite Lotus and the Seven Colored Holy Fruit…
“I do have them here…” Jun Mo Xie rubbed his nose and said. “However, an increase of 500 years of Xuan Qi and 500 years of youthfulness… those numbers are a bit off…”
“Are they off? Those numbers are pa.s.sed down from the mouths of the old ancestors, so they might indeed be a bit inaccurate.” Mei Xue Yan hesitated and said slowly. “How much are they off by? Is the real numbers 300 years? Or 200 years?”
“It’s good even if it’s 100 years…” Dugu Xiao Yi said excitedly. “I’ll just eat one every 100 years… In any case, we have the tree…”
“It’s not 200 years, nor is it 300 years…” Jun Mo Xie raised his hands. “It’s this!”
“Only 10 years?” The girls felt somewhat disappointed. After so much effort, it was only 10 years? This… was too much of a blow! Still… even if it’s 10 years, it was still better than nothing…
As the girls were comforting themselves, Jun Mo Xie’s voice rang out. “Why are you all only counting downwards? This is not 10 years, nor 100 years… it’s… 1,000 years!”
