Chapter 115 Finally Meeting My Lover
Chapter 115 Finally Meeting My Lover
Shen Taozhu's eyes were red from crying, and her tears had not yet dried.
She was filled with anxiety.
Why hasn't Xue Lang come out yet?
"Could it be that everything he told me before was a lie?"
Xue Pan made an agreement with her: if she was willing, he would let her marry into the Xue family and become a daughter-in-law of the Xue family.
But today, when she actually arrived at the Xue family's door, Xue Pan did not come out for a long time.
Shen Taozhu didn't know how long she had been waiting. She was at a loss and intuitively felt that every second was an immense torment.
It felt like every moment was an eternity, so long and unbearable.
"Taozhu, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."
Xue Pan finally came out, his voice still as gentle as ever.
"Xue Lang!"
Shen Taozhu finally felt a little relieved and quickly stepped forward, falling into Xue Pan's arms.
She had so much to say; she wanted to express her confusion and the helplessness she felt after leaving the Lu family mansion.
"Taozhu, why did you come to see me alone? Did something happen?"
Xue Pan narrowed his eyes and asked.
Shen Taozhu forced a smile and said sadly, "Brother Xue, Master Yunxuan has returned my contract. Now, you are all I have left."
"The Cloud Profound Talisman Master gave you your freedom? Didn't he say anything?"
Xue Pan's eyes widened.
He originally thought that Lu Qingyun knew his feelings for Shen Taozhu and would be willing to associate with the Xue family, become his in-laws, or even become the Xue family's backer.
If Master Yunxuan were to kick Shen Taozhu out, wouldn't all his efforts have been in vain, having to marry a maid with no spiritual roots and no idea who had been with her?
Xue Pan didn't think there was anything wrong with this at first.
However, if Shen Taozhu is truly not valued by Yunxuan Talisman Master, then these shortcomings of hers will be revealed.
Xue Pan could have countless women of similar looks if she simply reached out.
As soon as he said it, Xue Pan realized he had spoken out of turn. If his guess was wrong, it wouldn't be good to incur Lu Qingyun's wrath. He quickly added:
"What I mean is, didn't Master Yunxuan say he'd be attending our wedding?"
"You know, Tao Zhu, I'm afraid there will be resistance from my family. If Master Yun Xuan can come, things will naturally go much more smoothly."
"Young Master Yun, he...didn't say anything."
Shen Taozhu's eyes dimmed again when she thought of Lu Qingyun.
Xue Pan's brow furrowed even deeper as he pondered, when he saw Shen Taozhu take out another small, sparkling stone.
What are you doing?
Xue Pan was puzzled.
The Xue family was neither a prominent family nor a long-established immortal cultivation clan.
Only Xue Cheng, holding a high position, and Xue family patriarchs, possessing profound cultivation, were able to recognize these mid-grade spirit stone fragments.
He assumed that Shen Taozhu had given him some random little trinkets again.
Shen Taozhu had liked to do this before.
But then Shen Taozhu started crying again, and said sadly, "Although Young Master Yun didn't say he would attend our wedding, he gave me this small piece of mid-grade spirit stone before I left."
"Brother Xue, I feel so guilty. I've let Young Master Yun down by leaving him like this, Brother Xue..."
Shen Taozhu's tears flowed freely.
Before Xue Pan could offer any comfort, his pupils constricted sharply upon hearing Shen Taozhu's words.
"What! A mid-grade spirit stone shattered!"
Mid-grade spirit stones are the same size as ordinary spirit stones, but they are more refined and translucent.
Judging by its appearance, this fragment of a mid-grade spirit stone is worth a full hundred spirit stones, or even more!
Xue Cheng's entire annual income was barely seventy or eighty spirit stones, yet that Yun Xuan Talisman Master gave it to her so easily?!
"Taozhu! The fact that Master Yunxuan gave you this spirit stone fragment shows that he still cares about you and our marriage. Don't cry. I believe he wouldn't want to see you so sad."
"Don't worry, once you're at the Xue residence, you'll feel right at home."
Xue Pan gently comforted Shen Taozhu, patting her back. Her previous little thoughts vanished without a trace.
As he spoke, he reached for the fragment of the mid-grade spirit stone.
Xue Pan subtly reached out his hand and teased.
"Taozhu, once Father sees Yunxuan Talisman Master's dowry, he will definitely arrange our marriage carefully!"
