Finally, Wan Yunting brought Li Shuyun to the Boundless Daoist Temple to pick up his son, Xiao Bowen. Then, they drove back down the mountain, but they first stopped by the small wooden house in the back mountain of Kunshan Village to pick up Chen Qiuyun and Master Jin Yu.
Wan Yunting wanted to ask the two of them to be witnesses for him.
It was very late when Wan Yunting, along with Chen Qiuyun, Master Jin Yu, Li Shuyun, and Xiao Bowen, returned to the逍遥阁. After settling Chen Qiuyun and Master Jin Yu into their accommodation, Li Shuyun naturally went with Zhong Hongmei.
As Wan Yunting carried Xiao Bowen back to the small building where they lived, he heard sounds of an argument from inside. This made him raise an eyebrow. Upon entering, he saw that Qi Miaomiao and Duan Yingying were arguing.
"What's wrong?"
Wan Yunting looked at them, both appearing angry, and asked.
Gu Luotang came over and took his son from him, saying, "They're arguing because they don't agree on the room decorations."
Wan Yunting was taken aback. He turned to look at Qi Miaomiao and Duan Yingying and said, "It's just decoration, what's there to argue about? Is it that serious?"
"Brother Yunting..."
Qi Miaomiao immediately came forward, linked her arm through Wan Yunting's, and pointed at Duan Yingying, saying angrily, "She's clearly targeting me!"
"Hmph, Qi Miaomiao, I can't be bothered with you."
Duan Yingying's almond-shaped eyes widened. Seeing Qi Miaomiao acting spoiled while clinging to the man made her very angry.
This made Wan Yunting feel a bit helpless. The discord between Qi Miaomiao and Duan Yingying had happened before. He didn't expect them to argue over such a trivial matter, which showed that resentment had been building up between them, and they were deliberately letting it explode.
"You two, come out with me..."
Wan Yunting immediately pulled Qi Miaomiao and Duan Yingying out, letting Fang Yanxi and Gu Luotang continue discussing wedding matters...
Wan Yunting pulled them out to another pavilion next door. The first floor was a study, and the second floor was a tea room...
"Speak, what exactly is going on between you two?"
Wan Yunting sat down, took a sip of tea, and looked up at Duan Yingying and Qi Miaomiao, who were standing before him. "Whatever grudges you have, why don't you all speak them out now and resolve them together."
Qi Miaomiao and Duan Yingying exchanged glances, then both snorted coldly and turned their heads away, saying, "Anyway, I just can't stand her!"
"Hmph, as if I like you!"
"Tch, everyone knows you deliberately seduced Yunting back then, don't they?"
"Hey, as if you weren't deliberate yourself..."
Within a few words, the two started arguing again in front of Wan Yunting.
"Enough!"
Wan Yunting, unable to listen any longer, slammed the table and shouted. This immediately stunned Duan Yingying and Qi Miaomiao into silence. They both looked at the angry man, then pursed their lips and dared not make a sound.
Wan Yunting glared at them, then sighed and beckoned them: "Come here..."
Qi Miaomiao and Duan Yingying pouted and looked wronged as they went over. Wan Yunting embraced them from both sides and said gently, "Miaomiao, Yingying, I know you don't get along with each other, but you are both mothers now. Can't you be more mature and sit down to talk calmly?"
Duan Yingying and Qi Miaomiao, leaning in his arms, exchanged glances without speaking.
"What, still not happy?"
Wan Yunting looked at them from side to side, then deliberately teased them with his hands, grinning mischievously, "How about you both gang up on me?"
Teased by the man, Duan Yingying and Qi Miaomiao's anger subsided by half. They couldn't help but glance at each other...
In fact, the reason they were arguing was really because of the man.
So, Duan Yingying and Qi Miaomiao exchanged a look, and then the two women flipped over and pushed Wan Yunting down, humming, "It's all your fault anyway. Tonight, you'll stay with us obediently."
"Alright, I'll accompany you well!"
Wan Yunting laughed heartily, making Duan Yingying and Qi Miaomiao giggle...
The next day, the entire逍遥阁 was already adorned with red lanterns and decorations, and the windows were pasted with "xi" (喜) characters.
After Wan Yunting's stern lesson last night, Duan Yingying and Qi Miaomiao temporarily reconciled. They, along with Fang Yanxi, Gu Luotang, Zhou Ruoxi, and Su Ke'er, were trying on wedding attire...
Although their parents were not invited, Wan Yunting had naturally informed his parents about the wedding, and they expressed their understanding...
"Pavilion Master, congratulations."
Zhong Hongmei smiled when she saw Wan Yunting coming to his residence.
"Thank you..."
Wan Yunting nodded and chatted with Zhong Hongmei for a while before asking where Li Shuyun was.
"Shuyun is in the back courtyard," Zhong Hongmei replied.
"Mmm, I'm going to talk to her about breaking through."
Wan Yunting said with a smile, then turned and walked into the back courtyard. Indeed, he saw Li Shuyun wearing her training clothes and practicing swordplay with a long sword in the open space of the back courtyard...
After watching for a while, Wan Yunting smiled and said, "Not bad, your sword technique has reached mastery."
Li Shuyun, who sheathed her sword, turned to see him. She wiped the sweat from her forehead and nodded, asking, "Why are you here?"
"Just came to see you."
Wan Yunting walked over with a smile. He looked at Li Shuyun in her white training clothes, but her graceful figure could not be hidden. He asked, "How long are you planning to go into seclusion?"
Li Shuyun led him towards the pavilion in front. They sat down, and after pouring herself a cup of tea and drinking it, she said, "When I break through to the late stage of Dan Jin, I'll go back."
Wan Yunting nodded and smiled, "After the wedding tomorrow, I'll go into the valley beneath Kunlun Mountain and use the ice bed to help you train and break through."
"Ice bed..."
Li Shuyun's expression was surprised. She had heard Wan Yunting talk about it before, but she hadn't been to the valley to train using the ice bed. Now, hearing that Wan Yunting wanted to take her there, she smiled and nodded, "Okay."
"Then you continue practicing, I'm going back."
Wan Yunting stood up to leave, but Li Shuyun said, "Wait..."
"Mmm, what is it?"
Wan Yunting turned to look at her. Then, Li Shuyun looked up at him and asked, "Do you like me?"
The sudden question stunned Wan Yunting. After reacting, he said, "Of course I like you."
Li Shuyun paused for a moment, then stood up and said very seriously, "Then marry me!"
"Ah?"
This remark startled Wan Yunting.
Because he and Li Shuyun's relationship was something Fang Yanxi and Gu Luotang and the others didn't know about.
Li Shuyun raised an eyebrow. Seeing his reaction, she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed and said, "It seems I was overthinking..."
"No..."
Wan Yunting, having recovered his senses, quickly explained, "Shuyun, this is too sudden, and besides, tomorrow..."
"Alright, you don't need to say anymore."
Li Shuyun smiled and shook her head, also feeling she had been too abrupt.
Seeing her sit down dejectedly, Wan Yunting frowned. He also sat down and took Li Shuyun's small hand, saying, "Shuyun, I understand your feelings, but could you give me some time for this matter?"
Li Shuyun turned her head, her pure beautiful eyes looking at him, and asked, "What do you mean?"
Wan Yunting smiled, leaned in, and kissed Li Shuyun's red lips. Everything was conveyed in their passionate kiss...
The next morning.
Wan Yunting, dressed in ancient red robes, stood smiling in the grand hall of the逍遥阁.
Following him, Chen Qiuyun and Master Jin Yu, also dressed in red robes, led Fang Yanxi, Gu Luotang, Zhou Ruoxi, Qi Miaomiao, and Su Ke'er. The five women, adorned in ceremonial headdresses and robes, walked in, each with a radiant smile of happiness...
Zhong Hongmei and Li Shuyun were present, as were Tian Lang and Mei Ying, and everyone from the逍遥阁 attended to witness Wan Yunting marrying his five wives.
This scene made many people envious of Wan Yunting's peak life...
(End of book)
Regarding this book as a whole, I'm not too satisfied, as there are too many shortcomings, especially in the romantic relationships between the male protagonist and the female protagonists. There's far too little depth. Perhaps I'm not skilled at writing about multiple female leads.
However, all in all, I thank all the friends who have consistently supported me. It is you who gave me motivation. Although this book is not perfect, I will continue to work hard.
At the same time, I would like to recommend my new book, "Peerless Dragon Doctor" (盖世龙医). The new book has already been updated to 500,000 words. I, San Shao, hope friends will give their support to the new book.
The new book has many differences from this one, and it's an innovative work for me. I hope everyone can see my progress in the new book.
Once again, I solemnly recommend the new book "Peerless Dragon Doctor." It's already well-developed and waiting for you to dive in. San Shao sincerely thanks all the readers who have always supported me. Thank you...
