Chapter 269: Love Is Mutual

Sheng Xiao felt anxious when he saw that his father was getting further away from the topic.

He secretly kicked Sheng Lingfeng under the table.

Sheng Lingfeng, who was all smiles, was stunned for a moment after having his calf kicked. It was only then that he remembered that the purpose of tonight’s gathering was not to reminisce about the past, but to arrange a marriage for his son.

Sheng Lingfeng coughed.

There were no helpers in the dining room. Hearing Sheng Lingfeng’s cough, Madam Sheng turned to look at him, as if to ask, What do you mean? Do you want me to serve you?

Sheng Lingfeng reached under the table and secretly touched Mrs. Sheng’s legs. He even tapped her fingers suggestively.

Mrs. Sheng understood what Sheng Lingfeng meant. She then picked up the wine jar and poured a glass for Sheng Lingfeng with a smile.

Seeing that, Yu Huang also got up and poured a cup of wine for her father and mentor.

Sheng Lingfeng raised his wine glass and said to Yu Donghai and the others, “Brother Yu, Brother Lin, our two children are in love. It’s fate that we could get together…”

Sheng Lingfeng glanced at the proposal ring on Yu Huang’s left hand and smiled. “Xiao’er told me that he has successfully proposed to Yu Huang.”

Hearing that, Yu Donghai and Lin Jiansheng subconsciously looked at Yu Huang’s left hand. Seeing that Yu Huang was wearing a ring on her left hand, they instantly understood Yu Huang’s attitude towards this matter.

When Sheng Lingfeng saw that Yu Donghai and Lin Jiansheng did not say a word, he felt a little uncertain. He had seen all sorts of situations, but when it was time to arrange a marriage for the children, he actually felt uneasy.

Madam Sheng pinched Sheng Lingfeng.

Sheng Lingfeng immediately sat up straight and forced himself to speak. Sheng Lingfeng said, “I invited Brother Yu and Brother Lin to meet today because I wanted him to discuss the children’s marriage with the two of you.”

Hearing this, Yu Donghai and Lin Jiansheng were not surprised. They had long guessed that Sheng Lingfeng would mention this during the meal.

Lin Jiansheng said, “The youngsters are in love. As elders, we naturally have to support them.”

Sheng Lingfeng’s smile widened. “That’s good.”

Sheng Lingfeng’s calf was kicked by his son again.

He looked up and met his son’s suggestive gaze, then said, “Actually, Xiao’er wants to marry Yu Huang.”

Lin Jiansheng and Yu Donghai’s expressions suddenly changed. “Marry?” Yu Donghai said slowly, “Marry… that will mean paying respects to the heavens and earth! It will result in the marriage compact!”

Once the marriage compact was formed, it could no longer be undone.

Yu Donghai thought that Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao were too impulsive. He said to the two children, “Beast Tamers are different from commoners. Once a Beast Tamer prays to heaven and earth, they will be given a marriage compact by the heavens. And the marriage compact cannot be broken. If in the future…”

Yu Donghai avoided saying those words that he shouldn’t have said and only vaguely mentioned, “If you want to break the marriage compact, you at least have to be seriously injured, disabled, or worst case scenario, killed. Have you guys really thought it through?”

After Yu Donghai asked the question, he kept his gaze on Sheng Xiao and Yu Huang. He hoped that the two children would consider it rationally and not be impulsive.

Yu Huang held Sheng Xiao’s hand while he held her hand. They looked at each other and smiled at the same time. “Daddy, Sheng Xiao and I have decided to get married.”

Yu Donghai knew Yu Huang’s character. This child looked young, but she was actually stubborn. She would not act rashly. Since she said that she wanted to get married, that was the decision after careful consideration.

Yu Donghai sighed and didn’t say anything.

Lin Jiansheng threatened Sheng Xiao with a dark gaze. In front of Sheng Lingfeng and his wife, he said, “Sheng Xiao, if you dare to let Ah Huang down, I will kill you no matter who you are!”

Sheng Lingfeng and his wife hung their heads low, as if they hadn’t heard the threat.

Under Lin Jiansheng’s gaze, Sheng Xiao knew that no matter what he said, he would not be convincing.

Without hesitation, Sheng Xiao bit his finger.

Mrs. Sheng’s expression changed slightly.

She had guessed what Sheng Xiao was going to do. She wanted to stop him from doing something stupid. But, she saw the child’s determined gaze and knew his attitude.

As a mother, she should not interfere with her child’s actions.

Although she could not bear to see him like this, Madam Sheng did not stop him.

A drop of blood fell from Sheng Xiao’s finger. However, it did not drop to the ground. Instead, it floated in the air and turned into a blood pearl.

Sheng Xiao raised his bleeding finger and looked at Lin Jiansheng and Yu Donghai fearlessly. He said loudly, “I hereby make a blood oath. If I let Yu Huang down in the future, Sheng Xiao will die without Venerable Lin making a move!”

Hearing that, Sheng Lingfeng and his wife frowned at the same time, but they didn’t say anything in the end.

However, when Lin Jiansheng saw Sheng Xiao’s action, the fierce look in his eyes faded and he looked at Sheng Xiao with satisfaction. He said to Sheng Lingfeng, “Patriarch Sheng, you and your wife have raised a good child.”

Seeing that his son was so responsible, Sheng Lingfeng was naturally proud and satisfied. But as a father, his heart ached a little.

Feelings were as capricious as the weather. Even iIf the sun rose today, it might be stormy tomorrow. Sheng Xiao’s love for Yu Huang today was real, but who could guarantee that Sheng Xiao would not change his mind?

Sheng Lingfeng hoped that Sheng Xiao and Yu Huang could be loving for the rest of their lives, but he was still worried that something would happen in the future. With this blood oath, Sheng Xiao would be punished by heaven if he backtracked.

Sheng Xiao was too rash.

But this was his son.

Sheng Lingfeng put down his wine glass and revealed a proud look in his eyes. He smiled and said, “This child is like me. Once he’s decided on something, it’s very difficult to change his mind.”

Madam Sheng chuckled. “Are you praising Xiao’er or you?”

Sheng Lingfeng pretended to be serious and asked Madam Sheng, “What? Isn’t what I said true? Back then, I wanted to marry you from the day I won you over. Look, how many couples like you and me are there in the cultivation world now?” They were real husband and wife, and the others were at most partners.

Mrs. Sheng hadn’t been drinking, but she blushed slightly at Sheng Lingfeng’s words.

When Lin Jiansheng and Yu Donghai, the two bachelors, saw that Sheng Lingfeng and his wife were still showing off their love, they instantly felt that the food in their mouths was no longer delicious.

Right at this moment, Yu Huang suddenly bit her finger as well.

Yu Donghai was the first to notice Yu Huang’s actions. He was greatly shocked and exclaimed, “What are you doing?!”

Yu Huang looked up at Madam Sheng. She curled her lips and raised her bleeding right hand. She swore to God, “I swear to God that as long as Sheng Xiao doesn’t let me down, I will not let him down. If I let Sheng Xiao down, I will be punished by God!”

Love was mutual.

Love was between the two of them. It was not fair to let Sheng Xiao make an oath alone. Yu Huang had never been a fragile lady. She did not want a man to swear an oath to protect her love.

But since Sheng Xiao had sworn, Yu Huang could not just ignore it. They were both children with parents. Who would want to see their own child make such a vow?

Yu Huang only used one move to successfully win the hearts of Sheng Lingfeng and his wife again.

Madam Sheng looked at Yu Huang with awe. After a while, she held Yu Huang’s hand and smiled. “I finally understand why Xiao’er likes you so much.”

She was so charming. How could Xiao’er resist Yu Huang?

Sheng Xiao tilted his head and looked at Yu Huang affectionately. His gaze became even more passionate.

The expressions of the two young people were so firm and solemn that no one could doubt or underestimate their feelings. Yu Donghai raised his head and took a sip of hard wine. He lowered his eyes and said, “Since that’s the case, then choose a good day to get married!”

As long as Wine wanted to do something, Yu Donghai would support her.

After getting Yu Donghai’s acknowledgment, Sheng Xiao and Yu Huang relaxed.

Sheng Lingfeng chuckled and said, “Let’s have a good drink today. As for the other details, we’ll talk about it in the future. Come, Brother Yu, Brother Lin, drink!”

“Drink!”

When the crowd dispersed, Yu Donghai was so drunk that he was unable to distinguish the direction. He was also afraid of saying the wrong thing. After he was drunk, Yu Donghai fell asleep on the table and snored loudly.

Lin Jiansheng was also a little drunk. He sat on the stool with a flushed face and sighed. It was unknown what he was thinking.

Sheng Lingfeng leaned against Madam Sheng and mumbled, “You didn’t make my favorite dish tonight. You haven’t cooked spicy chicken for me lately. Do you not love me anymore?”

Mrs Sheng felt a headache coming on. She said, “I was going to cook for you last Tuesday, but you said you wanted to eat spicy rabbit, so I made it for you. I was going to cook for you last Friday, and you said you wanted spicy beef, so I made spicy beef for you.”

“I was going to make spicy chicken for you tonight, but you said that our in-law and Supremacy Lin are from the Prosperous Capital and are not used to the spicy taste, so you asked me to make something light.”

Madam Sheng lost her temper. “Should me or you be blamed?”

Sheng Lingfeng leaned on Madam Sheng’s shoulder and thought about it carefully. Only then did he realize that he was being unreasonable. He squeezed Madam Sheng’s slender fingers and said softly, “I don’t want to eat spicy chicken now. I just want to eat spicy Ah Ru.”

Sheng Lingfeng wrapped his arms around Mrs. Sheng’s waist. With a dark look on his face, he asked in the most pitiful tone, “Can you let me eat you?”

Mrs Sheng wanted to refuse, but she couldn’t bear to.

Yu Huang walked out of the dining room with a plate of peaches and happened to see Uncle Sheng carrying Auntie Sheng upstairs to their room. She thought about it and hid in the kitchen.

Sheng Xiao saw that she returned. He said, “Didn’t my mother want to eat peaches? Why did you bring them back?”

Yu Huang picked up a peach and handed it to Sheng Xiao. Sheng Xiao took the peach and took out a skin peeler from the shelf to peel it. He heard Yu Huang say, “Auntie is busy now.”

Sheng Xiao asked casually, “Busy with what?”

Yu Huang fell silent for a moment before saying, “Just now, I saw your father carrying your mother back to his room.” At this moment, Uncle Sheng left the two guests alone and carried his wife back to his room. Yu Huang knew very well what he was doing.

She had no idea that Uncle Sheng and Madam Sheng were so affectionate.
