This question really made his scalp tingle, as if he had returned to his previous life and was being hounded into marriage again.
"Look how old you are already. You're not a child anymore. Your eldest brother's great-great-grandsons can run all over the place, yet you don't even have a partner. What happened with Hua Menghan?" Xia Chunxue asked. She still vaguely remembered Hua Menghan.
Although much time had passed, Hua Menghan had once stood alongside her son as one of the Yi Yuan Sect's prodigies. Xia Chunxue could not forget her so easily. Besides, she might very well become her daughter-in-law, so she certainly could not forget her casually.
"Uh, she's in seclusion now. Our sect has already proposed marriage to the Ancient Phoenix World. After a few more years, we should be able to get married," Ye Xiwen said.
"Really? That's wonderful!" Xia Chunxue's eyes lit up. Of her three children, this most capable youngest son was also the one who worried her most. It was not only because he was constantly going in and out of exceedingly dangerous places, but more importantly, because he still had not married.
No matter how old he was, in her eyes, her youngest son was still that underage child. Besides, Ye Xiwen's appearance had not changed much at all.
In the eyes of parents and elders, only after getting married could one be considered grown up, considered an adult.
"Why didn't you come back and discuss it with us?" Xia Chunxue said reproachfully. She did not doubt Ye Xiwen's feelings for them; she was simply somewhat dissatisfied.
"Because it counts as a political marriage. The elders of the two sects are mainly handling it. She's in seclusion, and I'm not involved either. Before long, I'll be returning to seclusion as well,"
