Chapter 32 Trip to South Korea
"Thank you... for giving birth to him." Xia Bing looked at her. "Thank you... for waiting for me all this time."
Li Wu's tears flowed again.
"Xia Bing..."
"Don't cry." Xia Bing freed one hand and put it around her waist. "From now on, we'll never be apart."
Li Wu leaned against him and cried even harder.
But this time, they were tears of joy.
……
After a while.
Xia Bing led Li Wu, Tian Yan, and A Qing into the city.
"Xia Bing," Li Wu suddenly spoke.
"Um?"
"Are you... are you married?"
Xia Bing paused in her steps.
"No, I haven't gotten married."
"Do you have a woman?"
"Yes," Xia Bing answered honestly.
Li Wu's body stiffened.
"several?"
"……several."
Li Wu fell silent.
She lowered her head, lost in thought.
"Li Wu," Xia Bing began, "I know what you want to ask."
"But there are some things I can't explain."
"All I can say is..." he looked at her, "you are mine, and Xia Yan is my son."
"That will never change."
"As for the rest..." he paused, "we'll talk about it later."
Li Wu raised her head and looked at him.
Will they...accept me?
"Yes, they will." Xia Bing nodded. "They are all good women."
"A good woman..." Li Wu smiled bitterly, "I'm an assassin."
"So what if I'm an assassin?" Xia Bing asked. "I'm an assassin too."
"you?"
"I've killed more people than you."
Li Wu paused for a moment, then laughed.
"You're just talking nonsense."
"I'm telling the truth."
The two looked at each other and smiled.
The atmosphere was much more relaxed than before.
……
Back at the mansion.
Jingni, Xuenu, Zinu, and Yanlingji were all waiting in the courtyard.
When they saw Xia Bing return with several unfamiliar women, their expressions varied.
"Xia Bing." Jing Ni walked over. "This is...?"
"This is Li Wu," Xia Bing introduced. "This is my son Xia Yan's father."
"The son's...father?" Jing Ni paused, "You mean...?"
"Yes." Xia Bing nodded. "Xia Yan is my son."
"I...I have a son?" Jingni's eyes widened.
"Yes." Xia Bing handed the baby in her arms to Jing Ni. "Look, doesn't he look like me?"
Jingni took the baby and examined it carefully.
The baby's big, watery eyes looked just like Xia Bing's.
"It really is..." Jing Ni murmured, "When did you have a son?"
"It was... that time in Handan." Xia Bing said somewhat awkwardly, "Li Wu was pregnant at the time."
"That time in Handan?" Xue Nu walked over. "You and Li Wu..."
"Yes." Xia Bing nodded. "We had a period of time together."
The snow woman fell silent.
She glanced at Li Wu, her eyes filled with complex emotions.
Zi Nu and Yan Ling Ji were also sizing up Li Wu.
"Li Wu..." Zi Nu suddenly spoke, "Are you a member of the Luo Wang (Net of Heaven)?"
"It used to be," Li Wudao said. "But it's not anymore."
Why did you leave the Net?
"Because..." Li Wu glanced at Xia Bing, "I don't want to be an assassin anymore."
Zi Nu nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
Yan Lingji kept staring at Li Wu with a playful look in her eyes.
"Miss Li Wu, you are so beautiful."
"You too," Li Wu said calmly.
"Thank you," Yan Lingji said with a smile. "From now on, we're sisters."
"Sisters?" Li Wu was taken aback.
"Yes." Yan Lingji glanced at Xia Bing. "Aren't all the women around this man sisters?"
Li Wu looked at Xia Bing.
Xia Bing gave a wry smile.
"Miss Yan Lingji is right."
"you……"
"They're all my women," Xia Bing said. "They're all family."
Li Wu fell silent.
She was mentally prepared, but she still found it hard to accept the answer.
"Li Wu." Xia Bing grasped her hand. "I know what you're thinking."
"But you must believe me."
No matter how many women come and go, your place in my heart... will never change.
Li Wu looked at him.
"real?"
"real."
Li Wu took a deep breath.
"Okay." She nodded. "I believe you."
Xia Bing breathed a sigh of relief.
He was genuinely afraid of causing a scene at the dance.
After all, she used to be an assassin.
When an assassin goes berserk, the consequences are unimaginable.
"Then... let's all live together from now on," Xia Bing said. "The yard's big enough anyway."
"Live together?" The Snow Woman frowned.
"Yes." Xia Bing nodded. "We're all family, why distinguish between 'yours' and 'mine'?"
The snow woman glanced at him but didn't say anything.
Jingni held the baby and gently rocked it.
"Xia Bing," she began, "what are your plans for this child?"
"What arrangements?" Xia Bing asked. "Just let him stay here with us."
"Doesn't he...have a mother to take care of him?"
"Li Wu is his mother," Xia Bing said. "She will take care of him."
Jing Ni nodded.
"Alright then."
She returned the baby to Li Wu.
Li Wu took the baby and gently soothed him.
Xia Yan gradually calmed down in her arms.
"Alright," Xia Bing clapped her hands, "Let's all get to know each other; from now on, we're all family."
"Jing Ni, Xue Nu, Zi Nu, Yan Ling Ji, Li Wu..."
"And there's Aqing and Tianyan."
"Including my mother, and Xia Yan."
"There are quite a lot of people."
He looked around and suddenly smiled.
"Alright, everyone, come inside. What are you doing standing in the yard?"
