Chapter 116: Revealing the Truth
An Ran avoided Xiao Ze's scorching gaze, looked at the teacup in her hand, and spoke softly thoughtfully.
"Brother Xiao, you have helped me so much, and words of gratitude seem too pale. Because of my affairs, you have delayed many important things of yours, and I feel really sorry."
"safely."
Xiao Ze's eyes, like a deep pool, were filled with deep affection, and he hurriedly interrupted her.
"You know, I love it!"
An Ran raised her head and looked at him. Her peach blossom eyes, like cold stars, revealed an unprecedented seriousness. She spoke slowly.
"Brother Xiao, my family's affairs are like a tangled mess right now. I don't have the energy to think about these things right now, so I can't respond to you."
The corners of Xiao Ze's mouth slightly raised, revealing a smile like ice and snow just melting.
"An Ran, I don't need your response. Just look back when you need me, I'll be by your side."
A person with a cold temperament will not be easily moved by others, but once he falls in love, he will be loyal to the person until death.
An Ran couldn't help but be moved. There are no more beautiful words of love in the world than this: I will be by your side if you need me.
Xiao Ze has been by her side all this time, and she has seen everything he has done for her. It would be a lie to say she wasn't moved. She was not a pretentious person. She immediately smiled and said to Xiao Ze playfully.
"Brother Xiao, that depends on your performance in the future! Hehe..."
After An Ran finished speaking, her figure flashed and she flew out of the courtyard like a stream of light.
Xiao Ze was stunned when he heard that, but he reacted after a moment. He was immediately overjoyed and chased after him like a gust of wind, shouting.
"An Ran, you agreed, right?"
The two of them chased each other and left the Yaochi in less than a cup of tea!
An astonishing light flashed in Xiao Ze's phoenix eyes. He stared at the girl in front of him with burning eyes and said happily.
"An Ran, you promised me, right?"
An Ran's face was flushed with a peach blossom-like blush. She glanced at Xiao Ze and said coquettishly.
"fool."
"hehe……"
Xiao Ze scratched his head and smiled foolishly, like an innocent child. The flower that was once unattainable, cold and noble on the mountaintop suddenly fell to the mortal world.
He reached out his hand carefully and gently held Anran's hand, but then let go quickly as if he had been electrocuted, as if he was afraid that his actions would offend the girl in front of him.
"hehe……"
An Ran laughed out loud at Xiao Ze's behavior. In the secular world, there is no man as innocent as him. She felt like she had found a treasure.
She walked up to Xiao Ze, took his hand and said.
"Let's go. Didn't you say you would accompany me to settle down in Yunling?"
A blush quietly floated on Xiao Ze's face. He carefully held the soft and smooth little hand in his hand, summoned his long sword, held An Ran in his arms, and galloped towards Yunling.
…
The An family is unusually lively today, with lights and decorations, and an atmosphere of joy, just like a festival.
It turns out that today is the big day for the old master An to select a wife for the young master An, and all women of appropriate age in Yunling City can participate.
The streets are full of young women dressed up beautifully, like blooming flowers, a real feast for the eyes!
In the spacious and bright inner hall of the An Mansion, the ruddy-faced and energetic old master An gently stroked his long beard that had turned gray while earnestly persuading An Feiwan.
"It's too late. Our An family has always been small in number, with few descendants, and even to the point where there is no one to carry on the family line. So you should listen to your father's advice and find a healthy and fertile girl to marry as soon as possible, so that our An family can thrive and expand!"
After hearing what his father said, An Feiwan showed a very helpless expression on his face. He silently looked at the stubborn father in front of him, then rubbed his forehead which was a little painful due to boredom, and spoke.
"Father, you know that I have lost all my memories of the past. If in these forgotten memories, I already had a family, wouldn't that delay the happiness of that innocent girl's life?"
However, Patriarch An did not buy into his son's words. He just frowned and responded in a decisive tone.
"Fei Wan, even if you really got married in the mortal world, your father will never approve that woman to be the future mistress of our An family! You know, our An family is of noble blood, how can we just marry an ordinary woman?"
At this moment, the attitude of the old master An was extremely firm, leaving no room for negotiation. Obviously, he would never allow this to happen.
"Father, if I had a wife and children outside, I would never abandon them. If you can't accept it, then I will stay in the secular world and never come back."
An Feiwan said in a firm tone.
Hearing this, the old master An was so angry that his beard twitched. He pointed at An Feiwan and scolded him angrily.
"You unfilial son, do you want to piss off your father to death? I went through so much trouble to find you, how much effort and energy I spent, don't you know? You say this to repay us!"
At this time, Mrs. An, who was sitting nearby, couldn't stand it anymore, so she advised, "Okay, you two should stop arguing."
Ever since her son was found, she broke out of the confinement and has been staying with her son.
She looked at An Feiwan and spoke earnestly.
"Wan'er, don't make your father angry. Actually, your father did nothing wrong in this matter. You have lost your memory now and can't remember your family in the secular world at all. They are ordinary people with limited lifespans. One day they will grow old and leave. By then, you will be the only one left in this world. We don't want to see you suffer that kind of pain, so we hope that you can let go of the past and start over."
Mrs. An’s words made An Feiwan fall into deep thought. He knew his mother was right.
His mind was blank as to the past, but he always felt that there was a deep bond in his heart.
An Feiwan suddenly thought of the little girl at the Yao Chi tea party. Thinking of her tearful face, she couldn't help but feel a pain in her heart.
An Feiwan reacted instantly and realized that he couldn't bear to see the little girl sad. Why would he have such feelings towards a strange little girl?
no! He had to go and meet that little girl. The little girl must have some connection with him, and maybe she even knows about his past experiences. An Feiwan thought of this and said firmly:
"Father, mother, listen to me. In short, I will never consider marriage before I regain my memory. I must be responsible not only for myself, but also for others!"
Seeing his son being so stubborn, old Patriarch An was so angry that he blew his beard and glared. He put down the teacup in his hand heavily and shouted angrily.
"Now everyone in the city knows that you are going to choose a wife. Now you want me to tell everyone that you have cancelled the selection? Where can I put my old face?"
An Feiwan was afraid that her father would get sick from being angry, so she had to soften her attitude and try to persuade him in a nice tone.
"Father, I actually didn't agree with this from the beginning. You can just put all the responsibility on me. I'm not afraid of being embarrassed anyway."
Mrs. An looked at the father and son in front of her helplessly, and said after a long sigh: "Forget it, let me handle this matter!"
