Chapter 696 - Meixius Commitment (1/2)

After a long moment of silence, Yuan sighed with a bittersweet smile on his face, ”Asking me to choose between you or Lulu isn't fair, Meixiu. You're both equally important to me, so I don't know what to say.”

Yuan chose his words wisely so that he doesn't have to pick one and upset the other.

However, Meixiu wasn't satisfied with such an answer and continued to push him, ”That doesn't answer my question. You can either pick one of us… or decide to not pick either of us…”

”...”

Yuan retreated into silence once again.

Seeing this, Meixiu mustered her courage again before speaking, ”Yuan… After separating with you because of what was happening at the Jaded Garden, I realized how much I hated it— being separated from you, that is.”

”I was also worried that I would lose you to the demon, and the thought of losing you forever nearly drove me crazy…”

She took a deep breath and continued, ”I'm not asking you to abandon Lulu and choose only me, but I don't want you to leave me. You know, Lulu told me that she wouldn't mind sharing you with others as long as she could remain by your side.”

”I didn't understand her feelings back then, and I even found it quite abnormal. However, I am starting to understand her feelings now. As long as I get to stay by your side, I don't care if you choose to start a family with Lulu or whoever.”

”You want me to start a family with you and Lulu? Can I do something like that? How does it even work?” Yuan asked after hearing her words.

”It's definitely uncommon, but it's not impossible. I think the most important thing is that we all come to an agreement. As long as we are all okay with it, it should work out.” Meixiu said.

And she continued in a low voice, ”Lulu has already given her approval, and I am now giving you my approval, so it's all up to you now, Yuan.”

Yuan began pondering Meixiu's words in silence.

Meanwhile, Meixiu started working on the front of his body.

However, since Yuan was busy pondering for an answer, there was no response between his legs.

After a moment of silence, Yuan spoke in a sincere voice, ”If I can really start a family with you and Lulu and make the both of you happy at the same time, there's no way that I could refuse.”

”Eh…?”

Meixiu stopped washing his body to stare at him with a dazed face.

”D-Does that mean…”

”Yes, I would love to start a family with you and Lulu,” he gave her a clear answer with a smile on his face.

Meixiu's body trembled upon hearing his words, and an uncontrollable urge to embrace Yuan rushed into her head.

She then held onto Yuan's face with her soapy hands and gave him a sudden kiss on the lips.

”Meixiu…?” Yuan mumbled her name in a low and surprised tone.

”Yuan… Can you wait for me outside after I rinse your body?” She suddenly said in a bashful voice.

And before Yuan could even respond, she continued, ”You don't have to put on your clothes.”

Although Yuan was puzzled by her request, he didn't refuse and nodded his head.

Meixiu proceeded to rinse his body with warm water in complete silence before sending him outside.

Yuan began waiting outside with nothing but a towel around his body while Meixiu started washing her body in the bathroom, and she was incredibly thorough when cleaning, making sure that her body was sparkling clean.

'Am I really going to go through with this…?' Meixiu asked herself while she was still inside the bathroom.

'This uncontrollable urge that I am feeling now… Did I get it from my mother?'

'If I do this today, we can never go back…'
