Seeing the embarrassed An Ying, Wu Tian didn't want to continue teasing him, so he asked, "When did you start to like Aunt Ye?"
Shadow blushed and said, "As early as when I first met her."
"so early?"
Wutan was extremely surprised. He never expected that the shadow was hidden so deeply.
"Why didn't you express your feelings earlier?"
Shadow said, "I don't dare to do it. Of course, this is only the secondary reason. The main reason is that she used to have the Great Venerable in her heart, and before that, the Great Venerable didn't express his feelings, so I couldn't speak up. Now that the Great Venerable has expressed his feelings, I naturally don't have to hide anymore and can pursue her openly."
"I see."
Wu Tian suddenly realized, he never expected that Shadow was still a seed of love.
Suddenly, his expression became extremely serious and he asked, "Shadow, let me ask you again, are you sure you really like Aunt Ye?"
Shadow nodded heavily.
Wu Tian smiled and said, "Then go ahead and chase her, but you have to promise me that you won't use any mean tricks. You must use your sincerity and true heart to impress Aunt Ye."
"Of course."
Shadow made a solemn promise, then smiled and said, "Master, you are experienced, can you teach me a few moves?"
"I am experienced?"
Wutan almost spit out saliva, with a bitter smile on his face.
If he was really experienced, he wouldn't always be so embarrassed when facing Sikong Yanran and others.
"Relationships are a matter between two people. You should figure it out slowly."
He patted Shadow's shoulder, shook his head helplessly, and walked towards Shishi.
"If I had a solution, would I still ask you?"
Shadow muttered something in dissatisfaction, turned around and strode after Ye Yangxue, but in his heart he was thinking, how can he express his feelings so that he won't be rejected by Ye Yangxue
At the same time, on the other side, Shishi saw Wutan walking towards her, and seemed to be very displeased, so she turned around and left.
Wutan, feeling helpless, quickly chased after him.
Seeing this, Teng Huadie said worriedly: "Guangyao, should we go take a look?"
The Great Venerable shook his head and said, "They are no longer children and are capable of handling their own affairs. We should not interfere."
Teng Huadie nodded, and then the two of them walked into the attic hand in hand.
However, at this moment, Wutan felt helpless.
The faster he chased, the faster Shishi ran.
In just a few dozen breaths, the two men chased each other and left the Teng clan's territory.
Seeing that they were about to reach the Blood Valley, Shishi had no intention of stopping. Wu Tian took a deep breath, opened the Heaven-Defying Domain, took a few steps, and stood in front of her, saying, "Girl, if you have anything on your mind, just tell me, okay?"
"None of your business."
Shishi shook her head, turned around and was about to leave.
Wu Tian, who was quick-witted, grabbed her arm and sighed, "Are you blaming me for changing your mind and saying you want to leave?"
"I don't."
Shishi shook her head, tears streaming down her cheeks.
Wutan walked around to Shishi and looked at her tearful face. He couldn't help but feel a dull pain in his heart.
"well!"
He sighed softly, hugged Shishi in his arms, and whispered: "You have been with me since you were a child, don't I know you? Tell me, what are you thinking about?"
"I don't want to be separated from my brother."
Shishi sobbed, hugging Wutan's waist tightly with both hands, fearing that he would disappear in the next moment.
Wu Tian said with a smile: "Is it for this?"
"No laughing."
Shishi scolded angrily.
Wu Tian said: "Okay, okay, I won't laugh, you continue talking."
"I don't want to be separated from my brother, nor do I want to be separated from my father, but my brother will definitely leave, and my father will definitely stay in the Teng clan to accompany Aunt Teng. I am destined to be separated from one of you, but I really don't want this. Brother, tell me, what should I do?"
Shishi raised her head and looked at him for help.
Wu Tian held Shi Shi's black hair with heartache and said softly, "Silly girl, no one in this world is perfect. Similarly, no matter what happens, you can't have the best of both worlds. You will always face choices. No matter whether the choice is painful or happy, you must face it, instead of avoiding it like you did before."
Shishi shook her head and said, "I don't want to hear these big truths. I just want you to tell me, what choice should I make?"
After a moment's hesitation, Wu Tian asked, "Does your father know?"
Shishi said: "I don't know yet."
Wu Tian said: "Then why don't you ask your father for his opinion? Maybe he is willing to leave with you for your sake?"
Shishi said, "Father finally found Aunt Teng after so much difficulty. How could he abandon Aunt Teng and go with me?"
Wu Tian asked: "If this is really possible, what would you do?"
Shishi didn't even think twice and responded, "If father really did that, I would feel guilty and sorry for Aunt Teng."
Wu Tian said: "Then let me ask you again, if your father stayed, your Aunt Teng would definitely know that it was because of her that you and your daughter were separated. Do you think your Aunt Teng would feel guilty like you do?"
After thinking for a while, Shishi said, "I think so!"
"Isn't that right? You have your choice, your father has his choice, and your aunt Teng has her own choice. Since you all will face choices, why don't you go to them first, talk about this problem, see what they think, and then make a decision?" Wutan said.
"They have a choice too?"
Shishi looked at him in confusion.
“They certainly have a choice.”
Wu Tian nodded and smiled: "Your choice is me and your father. Your father's choice is you and your aunt Teng. And your aunt Teng's choice is your father and the Teng clan."
"Yes, I have to choose, and they have to choose too. Why don't I ask their opinions first?"
As if enlightened, Shishi suddenly came to her senses, stood up from Wutian's arms, a bright smile appeared on her face, and she said, "Let's go, let's go find father and Aunt Teng now."
"What an anxious, silly girl."
Wu Tian shook his head, his expression full of helplessness, and said: "Don't think about anything. Today is a day for the whole family to celebrate. Everyone is immersed in joy. Don't ruin the atmosphere. Let's talk about it tomorrow!"
"Look at me, I forget everything when I'm anxious."
Shishi patted her smooth forehead, then took Wutian's arm and said with a grin, "Let's go back!"
Wu Tian shook his head and laughed.
In fact, it was all his fault. If he hadn't appeared suddenly, Shishi wouldn't have followed him, and the Great Venerable and Teng Huadie wouldn't have faced the choice soon.
But the mistake had been made, and there was nothing he could do about it. It was impossible to erase Shishi's memory!
The two of them strolled between heaven and earth, chatting about their experiences over the years. When they returned to the reception hall, it was already filled with delicious food and wine.
But no one started moving, as if they were waiting for something.
When they saw Wutan and Shishi coming hand in hand, except Ditian and others, the people of the Teng clan all stood up to greet them.
Seeing this, Wu Tian felt a little flattered and hurriedly greeted them, "Everyone, please feel free to sit down."
"puff!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Shishi beside him laughed out loud.
"What are you laughing at?"
There is no sky without understanding.
Looking at Di Tian and the others, they also had playful smiles on their faces.
Shishi covered her mouth and laughed: "Brother, don't you think that there is something wrong with what you said?"
"Something's wrong?"
Wu Tian was stunned, but after thinking about it carefully, there was nothing wrong!
Shishi suppressed her laughter and shook her head, saying, "Brother, you are so stupid. What you just said is usually what the host says to the guests, but now you are the guest and grandpa and the others are the hosts."
After saying that, she couldn't help laughing again, and her two beautiful eyebrows were curved with laughter.
After hearing this, Wutan thought about it carefully and found that it was exactly as Shishi said.
Thinking of my previous stupidity, my face turned red and I felt embarrassed.
Seeing Wutan's embarrassing look, Di Tian and others finally couldn't help but burst into laughter.
The old patriarch, Teng Huadie, the nine elders, and a group of high-ranking officials of the Teng clan were also grinning from ear to ear.
“Ahem!”
Suddenly, the old patriarch stopped smiling, put his fist to his mouth, and coughed a few times. The hall suddenly became quiet.
The old clan leader stood up and said with a smile: "Little brother Wu Tian and Shi Shi are like siblings, and he and Tian Gang are like brothers, and he and Guang Yao are like father and son. The Teng clan is equivalent to his home, including little brother Di Tian and his friends. If anyone dares to treat them as outsiders, I will be the first to disagree..."
At this point, the old patriarch looked at the elder beside him and said calmly, "Shouldn't you make some statement?"
The eldest elder of the clan was whispering with the second elder of the clan. When they heard what the old clan leader said, they were slightly stunned, with confusion between their brows.
Seeing this, the old patriarch's face gradually darkened and he said, "Do you want me to explain it clearly?"
The elder of the clan trembled, and immediately understood what the old clan leader meant. He immediately stood up and walked in front of Tian Gang and the Great Venerable, and said with a bow: "Great Venerable, Young Clan Leader, I hope you can forgive me for what happened before."
The Great Venerable and his son looked at each other and couldn't help but glance at Wu Tian, Di Tian and others.
Both the father and the son knew that the reason why the patriarch apologized was entirely because of them.
If they were not afraid of the strength and means of Wutan and others, even if the ancestor gave the order personally, the clan elders would not have lowered their stance and taken the initiative to apologize.
However, the other party has already apologized, so they can't continue to hold on to it.
The Great Venerable stood up and said with a smile: "Great Clan Elder, although what you said before was a bit harsh, it was also for the sake of the Teng clan. Besides, Gang'er and I are not from the Teng clan. It is natural for you to worry that we have ulterior motives and look down on us."
"Your Excellency is very reasonable. I admire you very much."
As he spoke, the elder walked back to his original position, picked up the wine glass on the table, and returned to the Great Venerable, saying, "To express my apology, I will drink first as a sign of respect. I hope that the unpleasantness between us can be wiped away with this glass of wine."
After saying that, he raised his head and drank it all in one gulp.
"Father."
Tiangang glanced at the clan elder, picked up the wine glass and handed it to the great venerable.
The Great Venerable smiled slightly, took the wine glass, and poured it directly into his mouth without leaving a drop.
A grudge was resolved and the atmosphere in the hall became lively again.
