Chapter 356: Chapter 356 A Quilt

Because of the Li Family’s matters, Li Xiaoyao now lacked the energy to protect the women by commuting between several residences at the same time.

With no choice left, he could only gather all the women together to ensure their safety.

And thus, each woman became aware of the others’ existence.

Zhu Xiaoyue and Zhang Meng were still okay, but Tang Tiantian…

Tang Tiantian was the first woman Li Xiaoyao met after he arrived in Ling City, and he could still vividly remember the details of their first meeting to this day.

In that room, Li Xiaoyao played out the clichéd scenario of a hero saving a beauty.

Though the plot was trite, the result was by no means disappointing.

As time went by, feelings developed, and with continuous opportunities, the two finally took the step from ambiguity to lovers after getting drunk one time.

After that, Li Xiaoyao improved rapidly, like he was on a rocket, and Tang Tiantian even had the illusion that he was no longer the Li Xiaoyao she knew before.

Especially when he told her that he was a Cultivator.

In that moment, Tang Tiantian truly thought she had been living in a fantasy world.

But when Li Xiaoyao demonstrated his powerful and magical power, she believed it.

Li Xiaoyao was getting better and better, and such a man would never be short of women around him.

Tang Tiantian had actually been mentally prepared for a while, so when Li Xiaoyao took her to a luxurious duplex house, her mood didn’t suffer too great a drop.

Nevertheless, such matters inevitably made her feel a sense of loss, and heartache was unavoidable.

By comparison, Zhang Meng and Zhu Xiaoyue were much calmer.

Being aware they came later and knowing of Tang Tiantian’s existence, they felt a bit guilty when facing Tang Tiantian.

“You must be Sister Tiantian, right?” Zhang Meng stepped forward, asking somewhat cautiously.

Tang Tiantian smiled faintly, “Yes, what’s your name?”

“I’m Zhang Meng, a… friend of Brother Xiaoyao,” she said, glancing at Li Xiaoyao.

Li Xiaoyao coughed and said, “I don’t have anything to hide about this issue. Today, due to some reasons, you all happened to meet. Once this matter is resolved, if you still want to be with me, I will definitely treat you well. If you think I, Li Xiaoyao, am a bastard, I won’t stop you.”

The three women stayed silent, only Ye Qinglian sat on the sofa, looking puzzled at what was supposed to be the most dramatic showdown of the year.

After saying this, Li Xiaoyao went to the balcony to smoke alone in silence.

Ye Qinglian looked down at the seeds and fruits in her hand and thought since she was freeloading here, and the owner of the house was in a bad mood, it was probably her responsibility to comfort him.

Thinking this, Ye Qinglian moved the snacks from her lap and went to the balcony.

Glancing at Li Xiaoyao, Ye Qinglian mimicked him by resting her arm on the balcony’s edge and then extended her hand, saying, “Give me one.”

“These cigarettes are quite expensive.”

“Damn it, can’t you just not kill the mood?” Ye Qinglian almost lost her temper. She came to comfort and console him, and he’s talking to her about the cost of cigarettes?

Li Xiaoyao rolled his eyes and left the cigarettes on the balcony.

Ye Qinglian lit one up, holding it between the fingertips of her right index and middle finger, while her left hand tapped on the balcony, supporting half of her cheek. Her slender fingers reflected a silvery white color under the moonlight.

In that moment, Li Xiaoyao found himself momentarily captivated.

This woman, she could be so feminine?

“What are you staring at? Never seen a beauty before? Stare again and I’ll gouge your damn eyes out,” she said, shattering the goddess-like aura.

Li Xiaoyao felt three black lines forming on his forehead, convinced that this woman’s fierceness could compete with Lin Yuanyuan; if they actually came to blows, Lin Yuanyuan would likely be no match for her.

Breathing out a puff of green smoke, Ye Qinglian said, “There’s not a single good man among you—all you do is fool around with women or are on your way to do so.”

“What do you mean ‘fool around’? That’s not the right way to put it. Among civilized people, it’s called consensual, and I never forced anyone to be with me.”

With a mocking laugh, Ye Qinglian said, “You make it sound as if you’re some broad-minded man.”

“That’s a fact,” Li Xiaoyao brazenly claimed.

“Once this matter is resolved and if they really leave, won’t you try to keep them?”

Li Xiaoyao didn’t respond. How could he possibly not try to keep them? The words he had just spoken were just lip service.

Li Xiaoyao was a man who took male chauvinism very seriously—for him, his women were his for life, and nobody could take them away.

With an I’ve-seen-through-you look, Ye Qinglian said, “Let me ask you, if some men started pursuing them and they were willing to leave you for them, what would you do?”

Li Xiaoyao took a deep draw from his cigarette, nearly finishing it, and said viciously, “I’d kick them all into the lake.”

“What if they can’t swim? Are you going to kill someone right in front of the girls?” @@novelbin@@

“If they can’t swim, I can.”

Ye Qinglian was somewhat surprised, “You would save them?”

“Save them?” With a cold snort, Li Xiaoyao said, “No, I’d jump in and swim around them.”

Ye Qinglian: “…”

In the living room, after a brief silence and awkwardness, the three women slowly started to chat.

All three had good-natured personalities, and there was no hostility between them despite their previous interest in the same man.

“Xiaoyao is actually a good guy,” Zhang Meng said as she opened the refrigerator, took out a can of beer, and before she could finish her sentence, Zhu Xiaoyue said, “Hand me one.”

Tang Tiantian also said, “Got anything stronger?”

Five minutes later, the three women, with beer, whiskey, and red wine in hand, sat drinking and talking about Li Xiaoyao.

“Back then, my dad gambled and got set up. Then that guy wanted me to marry him, or he’d cripple my dad… *hic*,” letting out a hiccup, Zhang Meng smiled foolishly with drunken eyes, “Hehe, and then Xiaoyao appeared just like the Great Saint, swooping down from the sky.”

“You don’t understand, just don’t. I felt so terrible at that time, having to marry a man I didn’t like, who I had only met once. If it weren’t for Xiaoyao, I’d probably have killed myself by now.” Zhang Meng, a sentimental girl, began to tear up as she spoke.

Both Tang Tiantian and Zhu Xiaoyue were moved by her emotions, and with the effect of the alcohol, the three women ended up embracing and sobbing loudly together, making enough noise to startle Li Xiaoyao outside, who was chatting and smoking with Ye Qinglian.

“Don’t mind them,” Ye Qinglian held him back, with a knowing and experienced look, stating profoundly, “They need a good cry to release their emotions, and it will also help them understand each other better. Don’t worry, after tonight, they will be good sisters.”

“You’re lucky,” Ye Qinglian said to him, raising her eyebrows.

“Lucky? What kind of luck?”

Ye Qinglian made a strange smile and said, “Sharing a blanket with them.”

“For a lifetime?”

Ye Qinglian mimed the motion of covering with a blanket and said, “Just one blanket.”

Li Xiaoyao: “…”
