Chu Qian and Song Junwan hugged each other tightly, as if time had stopped. Their tears flowed like a flood, soaking each other's clothes.
An unknown amount of time passed before the two slowly loosened their arms, but their hands were still tightly clasped, as if they were afraid that the other would disappear if they let go.
They smiled at each other and gently wiped the tears from each other's eyes. That gentle action was like a spring breeze, making people feel extremely warm. Then, they both turned their eyes to Xiao Ning who was not far away.
At this time, Xiao Ning was standing there quietly, watching them with a smile on his face. Seeing that the two had finally put aside their past grievances and reconciled, he was filled with relief and joy. So, he walked forward with firm steps and gently took Song Junwan's hand.
Song Junwan looked at Xiao Ning with tenderness in her eyes, and then Xiao Ning closed his eyes and muttered something. Suddenly, a faint light emanated from him, gradually condensing into a looming human-shaped soul.
Song Junwan widened her eyes, looking at the gradually clearing soul in front of her with surprise. An indescribable sense of familiarity surged into her heart, and the breath was like the fragrance of flowers blooming in spring, making her involuntarily indulge in it.
Before Song Junwan could react, the soul rushed towards her without hesitation and rushed into her body in an instant. In an instant, Song Junwan felt a tingling sensation all over her body, and a strange force flowed through her body like a gurgling stream, nourishing every inch of her skin and every meridian.
At this moment, Xiao Ning opened his eyes, revealing a trace of guilt. He said softly:
"Aunt Song, I'm so sorry! I tried every method, but I still can't repair your damaged body, especially when it comes to fertility... Even Sister Rouxue is helpless. So, Ning'er had to come up with this method so that we can be closely connected in another way."
After a pause, he continued:
"I will integrate a bit of my soul into your body. After a while, this soul will be contaminated with your blood. Then, I will take it back. In this way, my body will also have Aunt Song's blood. I want to become a real mother and son with Aunt Song!"
Song Junwan covered her mouth excitedly when she heard Xiao Ning's words. She looked at Chu Qian beside her, and Chu Qian also spoke happily.
"Ning'er told me about this. I have no objection. Jun Wan, please stay with Ning'er with me!"
When Song Junwan heard Chu Qian's firm words, she instantly felt needed. She hugged Xiao Ning desperately and rested her forehead against his.
"Ning'er, my good child, our family will never be separated from now on!"
Xiao Ning smiled and hugged Song Junwan tightly, gently rubbing her smooth forehead and murmured.
"Well, never separate!"
Three days later, the ancestral hall in the deepest part of the Xiao Mansion seemed particularly solemn and dignified. This ancestral hall was located in a secluded corner of the mansion, surrounded by lush trees, as if isolated from the hustle and bustle of the outside world.
When you enter the ancestral hall, the first thing that catches your eye is the many neatly arranged signboards, which carry the traditions and glory of the Xiao family from generation to generation. They stand there quietly, telling the history and stories of the Xiao family.
Today is an important day for Xiao Ning to recognize his ancestors. The Xiao family, led by Xiao Changfeng, has already gathered together. They are dressed in formal attire and look serious and solemn. The Xiao Ding family standing aside have satisfied smiles on their faces, looking forward to the start of this sacrificial ceremony.
Soon, a figure slowly walked in from outside. Everyone's eyes were focused on him, with genuine joy in their eyes.
Xiao Ning was wearing a robe as white as snow, with fluttering sleeves, like an immortal descending from the earth. His face was as handsome as a sculpture, with clear lines, emitting a confident and warm light. His steps were light and steady, as if every step contained power.
Xiao Ning walked in front of the crowd, his eyes swept over everyone, and then bowed deeply to the elders. His movements were elegant and natural, revealing his respect for the elders. After the bow, he slowly raised his head and looked forward.
He came to the mat, carefully lifted up his trousers, and knelt on his knees. His eyes were firm and pious, as if he was having a spiritual conversation with the ancestors of the Xiao family. Then, he shouted in a loud and clear voice:
"Xiao Ning, the grandson of Xiao Changfeng and the son of Xiao Ding, has come to pay respects to the ancestors of the Xiao family! The younger generation must remember the teachings of the Xiao family, be friendly with relatives, be respectful of family ethics, encourage good deeds, cultivate virtues, avoid evil, and know right from wrong, distinguish between loyalty and treachery, uphold integrity and righteousness, and have the power over life and death!"
His voice echoed in the ancestral hall, and every word was sonorous and powerful, as if to engrave the Xiao family's ancestral precepts deeply into everyone's heart.
Xiao Ning loudly recited the Xiao family's ancestral motto, and every sentence was filled with love for the family and respect for the ancestors. After finishing speaking, he knelt down respectfully on the ground, touching his forehead lightly to the ground, expressing his respect for the ancestors of the Xiao family.
After the ceremony, Xiao Ning slowly stood up and looked at Xiao Changfeng again. Xiao Changfeng nodded slightly, his eyes full of satisfaction and appreciation. Then, he said in a deep and deep voice:
"Xiao Ning's ancestral recognition ceremony has been completed. From now on, Xiao Ning officially becomes a member of our Xiao family!"
His words echoed in the ancestral hall like a huge bell. Everyone in the Xiao family applauded, and the applause was like thunder, expressing their welcome and blessings to Xiao Ning.
A bright smile appeared on Xiao Ning's face. He knew that from this moment on, he would shoulder the responsibility and mission of the Xiao family and move forward with the family.
