Chapter 349: Chapter 349: The Wedding Day (Part 3) First Update
“`

Walking past the banquet hall, the corridor ahead was covered with flowers, turning it into a veritable flower gallery.

Xue An, Xiang Xiang and Nian Nian, as well as Tang Xuan’er, Xue Lan, and many others made their way inside together.

Halfway there, they saw someone blocking the path with a wheelchair.

“Mr. Xue, on this joyful day, the two of us sisters have also come to join the fun. Bring out the red envelopes!” Wei Rulan, sitting in the wheelchair, stretched out her hand with a beaming smile.

Wei Ruyan also said, “Yes, Mr. Xue, I even brought out the best flowers from my collection for your wedding!”

Xue An smiled, “Thank you, Miss Wei Ruyan, of course, there are red envelopes!”

As he spoke, he handed over two plump red envelopes.

Wei Ruyan and Wei Rulan were just there for the excitement, and didn’t really care about the so-called red envelopes.

But as soon as they received them, the expressions of the Wei sisters changed.

“This is…” Wei Ruyan exclaimed.

Xue An said with a faint smile, “Some people call these things spirit stones, but I think it’s better to call them jade marrow!”

Wei Ruyan and Wei Rulan glanced at each other and both saw the shock in each other’s eyes.

The moment they took the red envelopes, they felt the spiritual energy inside, and now hearing Xue An call it jade marrow, they were naturally astonished.

“Mr. Xue, these items are too valuable. We were just joking; how could we dare to accept them?” Wei Ruyan said as she tried to return the red envelopes.

Xue An smiled, “I have plenty of these things, and you’ve worked hard arranging the An Family’s decorations!”

With that, Xue An stepped forward and walked on.

Wei Ruyan and Wei Rulan watched his retreating figure, both feeling a bit dazed.

“Rulan, should we really accept this?” Wei Ruyan asked.

And at that moment, Xue An’s voice came, “Wearing this item often might even give her the chance to stand up!”

Upon hearing this, Wei Rulan trembled, then respectfully said, “Thank you, sir!”

“You’re welcome!” Xue An said with a faint smile, already walking away.

This jade marrow, or spirit stones, are indeed good items for the average cultivator, but Xue An was well aware that although they can initially boost one’s cultivation level, overuse would only be detrimental without any benefits.

That’s why he never let An Yan or anyone else use them.

As for why he said he had plenty, it was because of the ring Xue An looted from the Immortal Palace.

That ring was a Mustard Seed Ring.

As its name suggests, it is a space ring capable of containing countless items, large as Mount Meru or small as a mustard seed.

After obtaining it and breaking the seal, Xue An found it to be filled with tons of spirit stones.

These things were tasteless to consume and a pity to discard, so they were perfect to hand out as wedding gifts.

After all, what was insignificant to Xue An was considered a treasure of heaven and earth to ordinary people.

Upon reaching the door past the flower gallery, they found it tightly shut with bursts of women’s laughter coming from inside.

Xue An smiled faintly and approached to knock gently on the door.

“Who goes there?” a female voice asked from inside.

“I’ve come to fetch the bride!”

“Fetch whom?”

“An Yan!”

“Who is An Yan?”

“My wife!”

“Didn’t hear you, speak up!” the voices inside teased and laughed.

Xue An smiled and, even though he was the Immortal Venerable, today he had to obey and so he shouted, “I’ve come to take my wife, An Yan, home!”

His voice caused many petals to fall from the flower gallery above.

Whispers could be heard inside, soft, yet Xue An could hear them all.

“Should we open it?”

“Let’s wait a bit longer!”

“`

“But the elders at home said, just tease him a bit and that would be enough, after all, Mr. Xue is a man of high status!”

“At the very least, we should make him sing a song, shouldn’t we?”

Xue An heard this and, without waiting for a response from inside, laughed and said, “I’ll sing a song for you. If I sing well, you’ll open the door! How about that?”

“Sure!”

And those who had come with Xue An also had to restrain their laughter.

What song did Mr. Xue plan to sing? Little Rabbit, Be Good?

“This song is actually the only one I know because it’s also her favorite. We used to listen to this song all day on the balcony, gazing at the stars. This time, I’ll sing it for you!” Xue An said softly, and then he began to sing.

“The sparrow outside the window, chattering on the electric wire, you said this line, feels so much like summer…”

The surroundings gradually quieted down.

Xue An’s voice wasn’t professional, and he didn’t want to sing professionally either.

He was simply singing this song with the emotions of that naive young boy from three thousand years ago.

His voice slightly trembled while also carrying the warm sunshine of the afternoon, full of memories.

Everyone listened quietly.

As he sang, Xue An seemed to return to those nights, seeing the couple quietly embracing each other.

That bliss was the very reason that had sustained Xue An for three thousand years.

On the large bed in the room, covered by a red veil, An Yan was already in tears.

As the song ended, there was a moment of silence around, followed by an explosion of applause like thunder.

“Bravo! Truly beautiful!” Someone shouted excitedly, repeatedly exclaiming their admiration.

And some, with tears in their eyes, silently clapped, as if Xue An’s singing had stirred deep-seated memories within them.

The only ones in the whole place who felt nothing were Xue Xiang and Nian Nian, who knocked on the door saying, “Mommy, Daddy is here to pick you up! Open the door, please!”

Their childish voices dissipated the lingering sorrow.

The door opened.

Tang Xuan’er, Qin Yu, and Xue Lan stepped forward to distribute red envelopes.

Griffin followed behind, his face a mask of heartache.

He had never seen such lavish spending, to actually use Spirit Stones for red envelopes.

Sometimes, you really know how to squander, Griffin thought to himself secretly.

Entering the room, the spacious and comfortably decorated room was seen, and on the large bed in the center sat An Yan, quietly beneath her veil.

Xue An stepped forward, coming to the side of the bed and quietly looking on.

The room gradually became quiet.

Even through the red veil, Xue An could still see the tear-stained face of An Yan.

His heart suddenly ached.

Then, he slowly knelt on one knee.

As he knelt, the crowd watching the scene let out a low murmur of surprise.

Many thought that given Xue An’s personality, he would definitely not kneel.

Xue An paid no attention to these reactions; his eyes were focused only on An Yan, who was trembling slightly, and then he smiled.

“Wife, let’s go home!”

There were no phrases like ‘marry me’, just a simple, ‘let’s go home!’

Many nodded in understanding—indeed, that was more in line with Xue An’s character.

As he spoke, Xue An gently lifted An Yan’s hand and slowly put the Mustard Seed Ring on her finger.

Many in the room were surprised.

After all, the Mustard Seed Ring was dim and unremarkable.

Why would he give such a ring?

Griffin, a little irritate at the curious gazes from many, deliberately spoke loudly, “This ring cannot be found anywhere else in the world! It’s a Space Ring that can fit an entire mountain inside!”
