Chapter 123: Tang Wulin Says: I Want Them All【4000】

~13 min read 2,519 words

"Wulin."

"Will you not want me in the future..."

At this very moment, Tang Wulin looked at Ma Xiaotao, who was snuggled in his arms and crying like a tearful person, and was dumbfounded.

"Ah... ah?"

It was hard to imagine that as the current Captain of the Shrek Seven Monsters and the proud daughter of heaven of Shrek Academy, the other party was actually afraid because she might lose a boy.

But the key was, what was going on!

"Xiaotao, what's wrong with you?"

"Why would you think like that..."

He really wanted to know how, in just a short half-day, or even less than half a day, the other party could have such a big change? Clearly, when she left him before, she was still skipping and jumping, completely like a young girl in love; how could she be now...

Like she was about to have her heart broken? "If I had to say."

"Does it seem like she lacks a sense of security?"

Tang Wulin frowned. It wasn't that he was saying it, but how could the other party have such emotions?

Sense of security...

Although he wasn't exactly a gentleman, up to now, under normal circumstances, it should be impossible for the person before him to have a sense of crisis.

Not to mention Ziji, whom he hadn't told everyone about yet; after all, he had only settled that matter with her yesterday, so Ma Xiaotao naturally couldn't know.

And as for Nannan in the Outer Court, he was just preparing to tell her; it couldn't be because of this, right?

"Usually, Xiaotao and Nannan have almost no interaction; it's impossible for them to recognize each other so quickly."

Tang Wulin thought with a trace of bewilderment on his face.

He knew Nannan's personality best; it was impossible for her to hear gossip about him and then find Xiaotao.

As for Wang Dong... that little girl was even less likely.

Wearing the appearance of a boy, she absolutely couldn't have any movements; he could guarantee that.

"Of course I won't not want you."

"Xiaotao, tell me, what is going on?"

Tang Wulin looked at the girl in his arms who was a pitiful sight to behold, comforted her gently, and asked with confusion.

It was truly hard to imagine that Ma Xiaotao, who was known for being strong in front of others, would have such a side, as if she were so afraid of losing her treasure, so sad and pitiful.

But...

"She's actually quite cute."

Tang Wulin thought silently in his heart, naturally an act from the heart.

"Really?"

Seeing that Tang Wulin had promised her, Ma Xiaotao stopped her sobbing, carefully raised her head, and asked softly.

"Of course it's true; there's no need to be so nervous."

"A gentleman's word is his bond; do you think I look like the kind of person who would deceive his own girlfriend..."

Tang Wulin wore a smile on his face and nodded solemnly.

Although he wasn't any kind of gentleman, he couldn't do something like deceiving his own girl at all.

However, seeing Ma Xiaotao's nervous appearance made Tang Wulin frown again. What kind of situation could have occurred to make the other party so careful in front of him?

"Good..."

Hearing this, Ma Xiaotao's complexion finally improved a little, but it was clear that she still had lingering fears in her heart.

Wulin wouldn't not want her.

If not, he wouldn't have confirmed his relationship with her in front of the teacher earlier. She was truly stupid; how could she doubt Wulin...

"But."

"Me being like this."

"Is it really okay?"

Ma Xiaotao felt a trance in her heart. In a trance, she seemed to see a young boy and girl, both harboring feelings for each other, and the girl had long been prepared to confess to the boy.

But at this moment, a red-haired witch suddenly appeared and snatched away her "him" without a word...

"Me being like this."

"Is it really okay?"

Ma Xiaotao felt a torment in her heart. She had been thinking about these things before, and only after seeing Wulin again did she cry out in such sadness because of her feelings...

But thinking carefully, shouldn't what's important be the future direction of her and Wulin?

Is it to maintain the relationship like this? Then what about Nannan? Clearly, she was the third party who intervened and disrupted the relationship between the two; how could she... how could she have the face.

But if she were to hand Wulin over like this, how could she let go in her heart, and how could she accept such a result! "You..."

"What are you thinking about again?"

At this time, Tang Wulin interrupted the other party's thoughts and said suddenly.

"I..."

"I'm not thinking about anything."

Ma Xiaotao revealed a reluctant smile, shook her head, and looked as if she had nothing on her mind.

However, Tang Wulin couldn't help but smile upon hearing this.

It wasn't that he was saying it, but look at the way the other party's brows furrowed for a moment and her gaze dimmed for a moment.

Damn it, even a Luoshan Cannon could see that the other party's heart wasn't very calm.

"Xiaotao..."

Until Tang Wulin stared at her thoughtfully and kissed her on the forehead, it finally put her heart at ease, temporarily casting those things aside.

As the saying goes, there is nothing that a kiss can't change; if there is, then two.

"Compared to those."

"Since I am still with Wulin now, I should be with him properly; I can't think about these random things in my heart..."

Ma Xiaotao thought seriously in her heart.

"Clearly so easy to comfort."

And looking at Ma Xiaotao, who had already calmed down a lot, Tang Wulin also sighed in his heart and felt relieved.

Coming over so aggrieved before, throwing herself into his arms without a word, and then crying... If he hadn't known, he would have thought she had suffered a huge grievance! At first, it really gave him a fright.

"Now."

"Can Xiaotao tell me what's going on?"

Tang Wulin chuckled. He wanted to see what the problem plaguing Ma Xiaotao really was! Not mentioning this was fine, but as soon as this question was mentioned, Ma Xiaotao became visibly dejected again, her eyes filled with a sense of loss, and her heart was already very tangled, worried, and melancholy.

If her mood at this moment could be represented by a pie chart, then it would definitely be one-third melancholy, one-third worry, one-third melancholy, and...

More, more, and more reluctance.

"Wulin, you..."

"Your relationship with Nannan, it's very good, right?"

Ma Xiaotao opened her mouth and said softly.

"Mm..."

"It's very good."

Hearing this, Tang Wulin secretly said to himself that it was indeed as expected; it really was because of Nannan's matter.

"Mm-hmm."

"I heard that your relationship with Nannan is very good, and you are childhood sweethearts, having admired each other early on..."

Ma Xiaotao continued, a trace of firmness clearly flashing in her eyes as she looked at the other party, but her lightly bitten lips didn't look firm at all.

"Xiaotao, Nannan and I..."

Hearing this, Tang Wulin also sighed. Long before he became less of a gentleman and started getting along with every girl, he knew this day would come.

But he didn't expect it to be today, so soon! She had already figured out what Xiaotao was going to say; she must want him to be with the other party and cut off contact with the former, but...

"I won't let go of anyone."

Tang Wulin thought firmly in his heart.

No matter who it was, he wouldn't let go.

"Xiaotao, I..."

"Wulin, you..."

Just as Tang Wulin was about to say something, the next moment, Ma Xiaotao was faster than him.

"You..."

"Why don't you go find Nannan?"

Finally, she seemed to have gathered her courage, gritted her teeth, looked at the young boy in front of her, and spoke.

Honestly, she didn't know what to do.

She knew she liked Wulin—very much, super much—which was why, after waking up and seeing him, her first reaction was surprise...

But she didn't want Wulin to lose that childhood sweetheart who loved him more and had silently liked him for many years... "You..."

Hearing Ma Xiaotao's words, Tang Wulin was stunned in place.

He had already prepared the rhythm to try and explain to the other party, but he didn't expect that Xiaotao's first reaction after knowing these things would be self-sacrifice.

She wanted him to quit!?

"Xiaotao, what are you thinking..."

At this moment, all the words in Tang Wulin's heart seemed to fail, and he looked at the other party blankly, unable to help but ask.

Did she not want to be with him, not like him, or was it precisely because she liked him that she...

"I don't want to affect you and Nannan."

Ma Xiaotao gently pulled away from his arms, and her soft voice came over.

"Wulin, I'm just an accident... You and Nannan, you are the ones who should walk further and further."

She raised her head, seemingly wanting to be strong, holding back the sadness in her heart, and said word by word.

"I'll go explain things to the teacher..."

Ma Xiaotao held back the tears swirling in her eyes, couldn't bear to look elsewhere, and muttered to herself.

After saying that, she didn't say anything else and immediately prepared to leave this place... The reason was simple: she was truly afraid that if she stayed any longer, it would affect her judgment.

If she left now, she would really be gone! In the future, she would definitely endure not coming to find Wulin!

"You are not allowed to leave."

But the next moment, Tang Wulin stepped forward, pulled her into his arms, his face full of gentleness.

"Let go, let go of me..."

Ma Xiaotao struggled, as if she wanted to escape the other party's demonic claws, but as she spoke, a smile rose on her face, which was still streaming with tears—

Wulin also cared about her feelings very much. But precisely because of this, she had to care even more about his feelings.

"Wulin."

"Let go of me, otherwise..."

"I'm really afraid I'll regret it."

Ma Xiaotao said, her tears flowing down again, and she sobbed.

"If you leave now and don't be with me for the rest of your life, Xiaotao, that's when you'll really regret it."

Tang Wulin held her gently, his tone gentle.

"I..."

Ma Xiaotao was speechless because she knew what he said was true.

After she left today, she definitely wouldn't be able to get over it for a few years, and even if she did, she would never find a second person in her life; she would only become a strong woman who looked down on everything.

And the other party would also be her only reverse scale.

"Do you want to be with me?"

Tang Wulin's voice came.

"But Nannan..."

Ma Xiaotao didn't respond but spoke again of Jiang Nannan, whom she had met very little.

"Do you want to be with me?"

Tang Wulin ignored her and asked.

"..."

"I want to."

Ma Xiaotao pursed her lips and responded.

"Then do you think."

"I don't want to be with you?"

Tang Wulin asked.

"Don't ever mention such things again."

"I won't leave you, just as you won't leave me. I will naturally handle Nannan!"

"I will be equally good to you both."

He said word by word.

After saying that, he gently let go of the other party and turned to stand in front of her, as if wanting her to remember it well.

"Want me..."

"To be with Nannan?"

Hearing this, Ma Xiaotao was stunned. There was actually such a thing; why hadn't she thought of it!

Clearly such a simple problem, yet she had thought of it as a huge matter... No.

"But what if Nannan doesn't agree..."

She said weakly.

"I'll handle Nannan; you can rest assured."

"Besides, you will be her sister in the future, so how could Nannan be dissatisfied with you? And there's also Sister Ziji from before; I have to take responsibility for her in the future..."

"Not to mention Ziji, if she really marries me, you, as the sister, might be even earlier than Nannan!"

Tang Wulin's face was full of calmness as he spoke, and while he was at it, he "accidentally" revealed Ziji's existence.

"Got it."

Under his gaze, Ma Xiaotao's face, stained with tears, carried a blush as she said softly.

Wulin wouldn't not want her!

Just like the West wouldn't not want love!

But Wulin wanting to be equally good to her and Nannan was a possibility she hadn't thought of before... No, Sister Ziji also had a relationship with Wulin!

"Thinking about it this way, since there's already a precedent, it's not a big problem."

Her smart little brain didn't know what she was thinking, but she soon calmed down and thought.

"But Wulin before..."

"Why was he so fierce..."

Not long after, she came back to her senses, her beautiful face couldn't help but carry a trace of grievance, and she threw herself into the other party's arms, murmuring softly.

"Isn't it because of you, little fool."

"Worrying in vain because of such things; I thought it was some huge matter."

Tang Wulin felt her heartbeat, which was becoming steadier and no longer as rapid as before, and the stone in his heart finally fell, and he hummed softly.

"Isn't it because I was scared."

"What if because of me, Wulin and Nannan..."

Ma Xiaotao explained silently, her face full of seriousness, after all...

"After all, our relationship."

"Was still established because of that matter."

Her face flushed, and her whole body felt much hotter as she said softly.

"Why did you suddenly run to this?"

"Why don't I help you check if there's any risk of the evil fire recurring..."

Tang Wulin thought, his voice soft.

"Evil fire, this kind of thing."

"It's still hard to guard against. Although I've completely solved it for you, there will inevitably be some vague problems."

"I see that although it's not late, it's not too early either..."

While speaking, he couldn't help but pick her up and head towards his residence.

Compared to the long-winded talk before, it seemed that certain situations had more overwhelming persuasiveness!

"Eh?"

"What eh eh eh—"

"Wulin, you you you..."

Late that night.

Looking at Ma Xiaotao, who was already fast asleep, Tang Wulin gently pinched her rosy little face, his face full of doting.

Sure enough, this was more reliable.

"It's just Nannan."

"How am I going to convince her? It would be great if there were a tool-person partner to help..."

Until three days later.

After finishing his work with Ziji, Tang Wulin discovered Ma Xiaotao and Jiang Nannan shopping hand-in-hand in Shrek City and fell completely silent.
