Chapter 499: Mu Yan Wants A Little Uncle
"Why are you so impatient to meet Situ Lingxi?" Tang Xiao pointed in another direction. "I’ve already given you two new granddaughters-in-law, so you ought to be satisfied."
"Two granddaughters-in-law?"
"Hehehe," Tang Yin chuckled. "Grandpa, you’ve been too busy with the construction of the second residence; it seems you aren’t aware yet that Xiao’er has taken Sun Xiang and Mu Yan as his wives."
Tang Huang nodded in understanding, and he wasn’t surprised by the news. After all, Sun Xiang and Mu Yan had lived with them since they were still living on Earth, and they had fallen in love with Tang Xiao long ago, so it was natural for him to take them as his wives.
Tang Huang looked at his grandson again. "Why don’t you hold a wedding for Yin’er and the others too?"
"We won’t hold our wedding for now, Grandpa. Moreover, we are officially married to him, and we have our marriage certificates." Tang Yin’s words made Tang Huang sigh inwardly. "Situ Lingxi is different from us, and her Situ Clan is a royal clan, so they need to marry publicly."
"Does that mean Situ Lingshan and her husband will attend their wedding?"
Tang Xiao nodded. "I will bring Situ Lingxi and her family here tomorrow, including Taixu Wudie and Situ Lingshan. However, Situ Zengyan and his second wife will not be attending; in fact, they don’t know about our wedding."
"How so?" Tang Xiao explained the situation in the Situ Clan to Tang Huang, including Situ Ling’s dislike of her father and Pan Yuezhi. "Her father is an idiot! Is it that important to have a son? It’s fine if he wants a son, but he shouldn’t forsake his two daughters."
After that, Tang Huang led them into the main residence, which had been elaborately decorated for Tang Xiao and Situ Lingxi’s wedding.
*Thud*
They stopped in their tracks and looked at Huangfu Lingxuan, who had just arrived. "I hope my arrival doesn’t disturb the three of you."
"Grandpa, he is Huangfu Lingxuan, and I bought this residence from him." Tang Xiao looked at the old man. "I don’t need to introduce my grandfather to you, right, Old Man?"
"Hahaha," Huangfu Lingxuan laughed. "Even though this is our first meeting, I already know about your grandfather."
Tang Huang was shocked in his heart; he had never sensed Huangfu Lingxuan’s presence around their residence, but his words indicated that he had been watching them.
After calming himself, Tang Huang cupped his hands. "My name is Tang Huang, and I would like to thank you for all your help with my grandson."
"You don’t need to be formal with me." Huangfu Lingxuan pointed at Tang Xiao. "Actually, your grandson has helped me a lot, and some problems are very crucial."
Tang Xiao shook his head. "So, what brought you here today, Old Man?"
"I have no other purpose; I simply want to see the preparations for your wedding to Situ Lingxi."
Tang Xiao’s lips twitched; he couldn’t believe Huangfu Lingxuan had come to see him over a trivial matter. "Do you want to ask about Song Chenglin and Liao Yexue?"
"Are you going to tell me about them?"
Tang Xiao explained their situation to Huangfu Lingxuan. "Unfortunately, Song Tiankun hasn’t returned to the capital yet, so he won’t be able to witness their relationship firsthand."
"What will happen to them?"
"They won’t be able to separate themselves from each other." Tang Xiao answered with a nonchalant attitude. "Sooner or later, Song Tiankun will find out about their relationship, and the situation in the royal family will become chaotic."
"Will she get pregnant?"
"It depends on their fertility." Tang Xiao shrugged. "After today, Song Chenglin will forget Zhao Xuenning, so she will be safe from him."
Huangfu Lingxuan nodded slightly. "Song Chenglin is targeting not only Zhao Xuenning but also Zhan Yiran, so your actions this time have secured their safety."
"Hmm?" Tang Xiao raised an eyebrow. "I knew about his interest in Shangguan Qingyue, but I didn’t know he was also interested in Zhan Yiran."
"Phew." Huangfu Lingxuan exhaled softly. "Song Chenglin was much worse than his father, and his morals were crooked. Plus, his parents had a long relationship with the demon race, and they intended to destroy this kingdom. If it weren’t for that, I would never support your action against them."
"Is Song Zhentian planning to kill them?"
"Yes." Huangfu Lingxuan did not hide it from Tang Xiao. "He is waiting for the right time to uncover their evil plans, and he will kill them at that time."
"I see." Tang Xiao nodded slightly. "You can handle that matter yourself, and I won’t take any further action unless Shangguan Qingyin intends to proceed with her plan."
"What are you going to do if that happens?"
Tang Xiao’s eyes turned sharp. "I will destroy the Shangguan Clan, and you know that I can do that."
"Yes." Huangfu Lingxuan could only hope in his heart for Shangguan Qingyin to stop. "I won’t bother you anymore."
After Huangfu Lingxuan left, Tang Huang interrogated his grandson about his problems with the Shangguan Clan, and Tang Xiao didn’t hide anything from him.
Although he was worried about his grandson, Tang Huang knew Tang Xiao wouldn’t act rashly. He didn’t comment on the matter and left everything to him.

In one of the bedrooms, Zhang Xingcai sat opposite her daughter; she knew that Sun Xiang had already given herself to Tang Xiao.
"Why do you keep looking at me like that, Mother?" Sun Xiang asked.
Zhang Xingcai shook her head slightly. "It’s just that my feelings are a little complicated because my daughter has finally become a real woman."
"Shouldn’t you be happy?"
"I’m happy, but—" Zhang Xingcai paused. "You’ll only understand my feelings when you become a mother, especially if your future child is a daughter."
Sun Xiang pursed her lips. "So, what about your feelings? Are you still not ready to accept him?"
"Not yet," Zhang Xingcai answered with a soft sigh. "His two kisses stirred my heart, but I’m not ready to remarry. Moreover, he is your husband, and I’m reluctant to share a husband with my own daughter."
Sun Xiang had long understood her mother’s feelings; she didn’t force Zhang Xingcai and let her prepare her heart first. "Honestly, you should learn from Sister Qingge, Mother."
"I know." Then, Zhang Xingcai asked her daughter. "What do you think of Situ Lingxi?"
"Sister Lingxi is not bad, and I think she will be a good wife."
"When will she get here?"
"Tomorrow night."
Zhang Xingcai nodded slightly. "Tell me about your previous experience."
"Alright."

In another room, Mu Qingge, Mu Yan, and Xing Xing sat around Chu Lingxi. "Are you really pregnant, Grandma?"
Mu Qingge didn’t ask anything, but she was happy if Chu Lingxi was indeed pregnant with her father’s child.
"Tell us the truth, Mother." Xing Xing always wanted a younger sibling, but her father had long since died. Fortunately, her mother managed to open her heart again and eventually married Mu Ling.
Chu Lingxi looked at her daughter and rubbed her head. "I’m two weeks pregnant."
"Wow!" Mu Yan screamed as she rose to her feet. "I’ll have a little uncle soon!"
Mu Qingge shook her head at seeing her daughter like that. "Yan’er, your grandmother has only been pregnant for two weeks, so we have to wait a few more weeks to find out the baby’s gender."
"Oh." Mu Yan deflated like a balloon; she looked at Chu Lingxi’s stomach. "Grandma, I hope you will get pregnant with a boy, and I will have a little uncle."
Since the baby would be her sibling, Xing Xing agreed with Mu Yan. "I also hope you’ll get pregnant with a boy, Mom."
"What about you, Mother?" Mu Yan asked Mu Qingge.
"Whether it’s a boy or a girl, it’s not a big deal." Mu Qingge paused. "However, I hope the baby is a boy, and he will be the future leader of our Mu Clan."
"Yay!" Mu Yan cheered.
Chu Lingxi smiled to herself, seeing Mu Yan like that. "Honestly, I myself hope that the fetus in my womb is a boy, so I will have a son and a daughter. By the way, what about Situ Lingxi’s family?"
"Tang Xiao will bring them here tomorrow night, and you will meet them then, Mom."
After chatting for a while, Mu Qingge and Xing Xing left the room, but Mu Yan stayed behind to keep Chu Lingxi company.

In her bedroom, Liao Yexue sat in front of the mirror; her face was deathly pale, and immense fear filled her heart.
Liao Yexue remembered sleeping in her own bed last night, but when she woke up, she was already in Song Chenglin’s bed, and they were naked.
What’s worse, Liao Yexue found Song Chenglin’s yang qi in her body, which meant they had sex last night. Realizing the gravity of the situation, she frantically expelled his yang qi from her body to prevent any unwanted consequences.
As she got dressed, Liao Yexue found Song Chenglin’s hands and feet tied to the bedposts. Worse yet, her lust got out of control again when she saw him naked; she hurriedly freed him and ran back to her room.
Due to the unusual situation, Liao Yexue believed someone was trying to frame her and Song Chenglin, but she was confused about the identity of the perpetrator. After all, they lived in the Song Royal Palace, and outsiders couldn’t infiltrate her bedroom. She suspected one of the royal family members was the culprit.
"Who is the real mastermind behind this? Why did that person do that to us?" Liao Yexue felt truly terrified by the situation, and Song Tiankun would kill her if he found out that she had sex with Song Chenglin. "Damn it! I have to hide this matter well, or I’ll die!"
