After sightseeing along the way, Xiao Yan brought the women back to the Small Mountain Valley in the Magical Beast Mountain Range.
More than four years had passed since Xiao Yan last came here. Beautiful flowers and grasses now covered the ground and even grew through the gaps in the Small Wooden House.
"Wow, brother-in-law, it's so pretty here!" Cai Die's eyes sparkled at the sight of the valley.
Cai Lin and Ya Fei were just as captivated by the scenery.
Of the four women, only Xiao Yi Xian had been here before. The others were immediately drawn in by its beauty, as though they had stumbled upon a hidden paradise.
A gentle smile rested on Xiao Yi Xian's face as she gazed at the cozy house in the middle of the valley. Memories came flooding back.
This was where she and Xiao Yan had first met, where they had made those precious memories together.
Even now, she remembered those days vividly.
So did Xiao Yan. This place held many happy memories for him too. Those carefree days had been a rare time of peace in his life.
First Xiao Yi Xian, then Xun'er, and now Cai Lin, Cai Die, and Ya Fei.
The thought made even Xiao Yan a little embarrassed. If he had behaved like this in his previous life, he would probably have been beaten to death.
But seeing how well the women got along put his mind at ease. That probably would never happen.
"Let's clean this place up," Xiao Yi Xian said with a smile.
The others and Xiao Yan smiled and nodded.
It was their first time doing something like this together.
