Mu Qingge watched Tang Xiao, who was advising Mu Yan, and she was quite amazed by the way he handled her daughter, as he looked so gentle and patient.
"If we don’t have power, people will oppress, insult, ridicule, and look down on us. Although I haven’t been a cultivator for long, I understand what it’s like to be treated poorly. Therefore, you should listen to your mother’s advice, unless you want to be treated that way by others." Mu Yan shook her head hard because no one wants to be treated like that, and Tang Xiao smiled at her response before speaking again. "If you don’t want to be treated like that, then you must cultivate diligently to beco strong and achieve your dreams, and you can use your strength to protect yourself as well as those close to you. Do you understand?"
Mu Yan hugged Tang Xiao. "En, I understand what you an, Big Brother."
"Good! You must follow your mother’s words, got it?" Tang Xiao rubbed Mu Yan’s back gently, but he still felt strange about the feeling of closeness with her. ’Perhaps this feeling is because I am the last child, so I feel comfortable with her.’
Mu Qingge stared at Tang Xiao dumbfoundedly, and she really couldn’t believe what she was seeing, especially since Mu Yan was more obedient to Tang Xiao than to her.
Mu then released her embrace from Tang Xiao and looked at her mother, and she smiled strangely seeing Mu Qing dumbfounded like that, but she hugged her arm and brought her back to her senses.
However, Mu Yan’s next words made Mu Qingge dumbfounded again. ’Mom, I know that you don’t want to get close to any man because of my father, but I feel that big brother Xiao is a good man, and I like him, so I hope you can consider him.’
Even though she whispered very softly, Tang Xiao’s senses were much more sensitive than those of other cultivators, thanks to his true senses. Mu Yan’s words made him choke because he only admired Mu Qingge, at least for now. He is no hypocrite, and he will not refuse her if she is willing to beco his woman, as she is truly beautiful and has a high level of cultivation.
Since her mother did not respond to her, Mu Yan moved to Tang Xiao’s side again. ’Big brother! You must approach my mother and conquer her heart, and I will fully support you.’
Mu Yan then ran towards the back garden, leaving Tang Xiao and Mu Qingge dumbfounded. For so ti, they were speechless, and the atmosphere between them beca awkward.
Before long, Tang Xiao released a soft sigh and spoke to Mu Qingge. "Mrs. Mu, you don’t need to think about Yan’er’s words just now. She’s still a child, so she likes to talk without thinking."
"You’re wrong, Xiao." Mu Qingge replied and turned toward the back garden. "Yan’er has never asked such a thing before because she knows that I have never been interested in any man, and she has never been close to any man because of my past."
"Oh?" Tang Xiao was surprised to hear that because this was their first ti eting, so he didn’t know anything about them, but he guessed that Mu Yan’s father had never treated them well.
"Do you have a wife, Xiao?"
"Eh?" Tang Xiao was surprised by Mu Qingge’s inquiry, but he responded honestly. "I have two wives, and they are also beginner cultivators like ."
Mu Qingge looked at Tang Xiao in surprise, and she didn’t expect that he already had two wives, so she sighed in her heart.
"I am a dual cultivator, Mrs. Mu."
"You are a dual cultivator?" Tang Xiao’s answer was beyond Mu Qingge’s expectations, but she neither hated nor liked dual cultivators, and she was more in the middle. "Do they know that you are a dual cultivator?"
"Yes." Tang Xiao thought for a while before taking out his two marriage certificates, and he showed them to Mu Qingge. "As you can see, I really have two wives, but I haven’t dual-cultivated with them because we just got married, and I’m still busy with my job as a chauffeur."
"Only two?" Mu Qingge couldn’t believe Tang Xiao’s words because she knew several dual cultivators on Earth II. So of them even tried hard to win her heart, and they had dozens of won by their side.
"They are both my official wives, and I have two other won beside ." Mu Qingge raised an eyebrow when Tang Xiao said that. "I don’t know how to explain it to you, but those two won are with right now for certain reasons, and I will never take them as my official wives."
Mu Qingge didn’t expect that he would admit his relationship so openly, but she appreciated his honesty. She looked up at the sky with a soft sigh. "Even though you already have two official wives and two unofficial won, I am willing to comply with my daughter’s wishes, and I will give you the opportunity to approach ."
Tang Xiao looked at Mu Qingge after she said that, but instead of feeling happy about her words, he questioned her decision. "Why did you make such a decision?"
"I owe my daughter a lot because Yan’er never knew her father’s identity, and I never told her because of my selfishness." Mu Qingge then turned to Tang Xiao again. "Back then, I was too naive and innocent, and I had a boyfriend at that ti. At first, our relationship was excellent, and he truly cared for , so I fell deeply in love with him. One day, he asked to have sex with him, and I agreed because I was infatuated with him due to his kindness and care for , and he promised to marry ."
Tang Xiao raised an eyebrow after hearing that, and he could already guess the story of her past, but he didn’t bla Mu Qingge either. Before he was imprisoned, he also had several female friends who had the sa fate as him, and they were abandoned by their boyfriends right after their virginity was taken.
"Unfortunately, everything changed after I was pregnant with his child, and I demanded that he marry imdiately. However, the opposite happened, and he accused of cheating with another man. He didn’t want to admit that the child in my womb was his, and he left just like that." Tears were already dripping from Mu Qingge’s eyes, even though she had forgotten about it, but retelling the story made her sad again. "I decided not to abort my pregnancy, and my father also supported because my child was innocent. In the end, Yan’er was born, and I raised her by myself. She often asked for the identity of her father, but I never intended to tell her about him. All I said was that her father was a bad man, and he didn’t want her."
Seeing such a sad Mu Qingge, Tang Xiao pulled her into his embrace, startling her.
Mu Qingge allowed Tang Xiao to hug her, and she continued her story. "Due to the influence of my words, Yan’er grew up with feelings of hatred towards n, and she never felt comfortable having n around her. But today things have changed; she seems so close to you, and she even listens to your advice."
"So, you took such a decision just for Yan’er’s sake?" Tang Xiao asked with a low sigh.
"Yes." Mu Qingge then broke free from Tang Xiao’s arms, wiped her tears, and looked at him with a serious expression. "Yes, I am willing to do anything for Yan’er’s sake. Since she asked to consider you, I decided to give you a chance to approach . I’m only giving you a chance to approach , and the result depends on whether you can heal my heart and convince to accept you or not."
Suddenly, Xiao Ai said sothing in Tang Xiao’s mind. [Master, my mistress said that Mu Qingge is a good woman, and she wants her to be your third wife, so you must succeed in conquering her heart as quickly as possible.]
’Damn!’ Tang Xiao cursed in his heart; he felt that Xiao Ai and Tang Yin were conspiring to make him accept another woman too soon.
[Hahaha.] Xiao Ai laughed out loud at Tang Xiao’s reaction. [My mistress also said that her three employees are pretty and sexy, and they might be suitable candidates to beco mbers of your harem.]
Tang Xiao couldn’t help but sigh in his heart after hearing that, as Tang Yin was more eager than him to add mbers to his harem. Moreover, he didn’t know anything about those three employees, and he felt that they were useless because they were just ordinary humans. He thought that it would be better if he looked for female cultivators like Mu Qingge. ’I have to discuss this matter with her later, or she will continue to look for random won for .’
Tang Xiao’s response did not surprise Xiao Ai because she was familiar with him. [You don’t need to worry, Master. My mistress will not force you to accept those three won, but she wants you to et them first, and she leaves the decision in your hands.]
"Xiao?" Mu Qingge confusedly called out to him, especially after she saw Tang Xiao’s expression constantly changing. ’What is he thinking right now? Does he think that I am a cheap and disgusting woman?’
Tang Xiao took a deep breath and looked at Mu Qingge. "Do you really not mind if I try to get close to you, Mrs. Mu? After all, you decided this for Yan’er’s sake, but you don’t know anything about . Since you are an experienced cultivator, you probably already noticed sothing about ."
"Yes." Mu Qingge nodded slightly. "From the mont I first saw you, I could see through your disguise, and your current appearance is fake. Besides, I doubt that your real na is Feng Xiao, and I’m sure that you’re using a fake na."
"Yes." Tang Xiao used his true eyes to peek at Yi An and Su Rou, and he found them busy talking to Mu Lin. He looked at Mu Qingge again before removing his disguise. "This is my true face."
"I know." However, Mu Qingge sohow felt familiar with Tang Xiao’s face, and she rubbed his face. "Who exactly are you? Why do I feel like I’ve seen your face before?"
"To tell you the truth, my na is Tang Xiao."
Mu Qingge instantly froze upon hearing ang Xiao’s real na. "Are you the son of the late Brother Ye? I rember for sure that his son’s na was Tang Xiao, and I had t his son several tis in the past."
Tang Xiao raised his eyebrows after hearing Mu Qingge’s question, particularly because he did not recall ever visiting the Mu family’s house or eting her, as he was too young at that ti.
Tang Xiao recalled Tang Yuan’s words that his grandfather and master would attend Mu Ling’s birthday banquet, and he realized that their families were related to each other, so it was natural that he knew his father. "My parents are Tang Ye and Zhao Jing, and my grandfather is Tang Huang."
