My wife is a Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox
Chapter 125: Is It Letting Go?

Chapter 125: Chapter 125: Is It Letting Go?

"Xia, you’re finally back. They’ve been kneeling here for two days,"

Lin Jiao and Zhou Fang hurried to Wu Xia’s side.

"What’s going on with them?"

"I told them to go back first, but they didn’t listen to me. They insisted on kneeling until you returned!"

"Sister-in-law, it’s alright. You go inside first, and I will handle this!"

Wu Xia smiled slightly and comforted the two.

Because of his arrival, a white-haired elder descended from a red-flagged car. Despite his advanced age, he looked remarkably spirited and exuded a sense of rigidity.

Han Xiao and another middle-aged man stepped down from either side, respectfully standing behind the elder.

Wu Xia didn’t need to think to know that this was Yuan Lang’s grandfather, Yuan Zhengzhong!

At that moment, Yuan Zhengzhong’s face was ashen. He had also been waiting here for two days without a sip of water.

He quickly approached Wu Xia, bowed respectfully, and said, "Mr. Wu, I’ve finally awaited your arrival. I have personally come with these two miscreants to seek forgiveness, at your disposal for any reprimand!"

This move completely baffled Wu Xia.

Although he knew having Xiao Nihuang behind him earned him respect from everyone, he didn’t expect a figure like Yuan Zhengzhong to act this way towards him.

What Wu Xia didn’t know was that ever since the news of his resurrecting the deceased Du Xiaomin had spread to the Inner Court, he had been designated as the nation’s top priority.

Even Xiao Nihuang would have to take second place before him.

So, when Yuan Zhengzhong learned that Yuan Lang had provoked Wu Xia, he didn’t dare to waste a moment. He immediately traveled from the Capital City, bringing Yuan Lang and his wife to apologize in person.

"Mr. Wu, Mr. Yuan has been waiting for you for two days now, and he hasn’t eaten anything!"

Han Xiao quickly added from the side.

Although Yuan Zhengzhong sternly glared at him as soon as he had spoken, it was clear how much he cared for Yuan Zhengzhong.

Wu Xia also came to his senses.

He was not a heartless man, so he quickly stepped forward, took Yuan Zhengzhong’s hand, and a gentle Spiritual Power flowed into his body.

"Mr. Yuan has been overly concerned. The matter of that day has passed, and I haven’t taken it to heart!"

Feeling the gentle power, Yuan Zhengzhong’s eyes brightened with emotion as he excitedly gripped Wu Xia’s hand, "Mr. Wu truly is a Divine, I am ashamed, so ashamed!"

"Xia, let them all stand up, kneeling here like this isn’t right," Lin Jiao whispered from the side. "Let’s all go inside and sit!"

"Yes!" Wu Xia nodded.

This is a residential area, and with so many people watching, it wouldn’t be good for the Yuan Family’s reputation if word got out.

Besides, on that day, although Yuan Lang was at fault, it was ultimately because of his insistence on lying with another man’s wife.

In truth, if anyone was to be blamed, it was Wu Xia.

Now that the other party had not only apologized on their own but also did so with such grandeur, it actually made Wu Xia feel a bit guilty.

"Mr. Yuan, please have them stand up now. It’s okay, everything has passed!"

"Don’t bother about them!" Yuan Zhengzhong said angrily. "This miscreant I’ve spoiled since childhood has stirred up such a mess. If he doesn’t learn a lesson now, he might end up causing even more trouble in the future!"

"Mr. Yuan, it’s all in the past now!" Wu Xia didn’t care whether Yuan Lang was kneeling or not; even if Yuan Lang had died, it wouldn’t matter to him.

He was only concerned about his first love, the dreamlike Su Yuxuan.

His gaze complex, he glanced at the tearful Su Yuxuan, then turned to look at the nearly fainted Yuan Lang and said in a low voice, "Stand up, it’s alright!"

The two didn’t dare to move and looked towards Yuan Zhengzhong.

Being his grandson, Yuan Zhengzhong had a soft spot in his heart and quickly waved his hand, "Mr. Wu told you to stand up, why aren’t you thanking Mr. Wu quickly!"

The couple finally breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed on the ground.

"Thank you!"

Wu Xia pursed his lips, feeling an ineffable sensation, as he stepped forward, grabbed both of their hands, and transferred a trace of Spiritual Power into them.

This was all for the sake of Su Yuxuan.

Yuan Lang and Su Yuxuan’s eyes widened, fully aware of their own physical conditions which had now, with just a simple touch, filled their weak bodies with strength—something seemingly beyond human capability.

Yuan Lang finally understood why Han Xiao had told him that Wu Xia was the only one who could truly heal his body.

The first thing he did after regaining his strength was to kneel on the ground and frantically knock his head on the floor in front of Wu Xia.

"Mr. Wu, thank you, thank you. I was wrong before, I’m sorry. From now on, I, Yuan Lang, will do whatever you ask!"

Wu Xia couldn’t be bothered with Yuan Lang, waving his hand to indicate that he should get up.

Although he wanted to go and support Su Yuxuan, he refrained from doing so because Yuan Zhengzhong was there.

In the end, he coldly stood up and led them back inside the villa.

Lin Jiao and Zhou Fang, originally from the countryside, could not stay idle and began to get busy preparing lunch after seeing that the outside was clear.

Wu Xia then took Yuan Zhengzhong and others to the garden for tea.

Yuan Lang stood respectfully by the side, continuously pouring water and handing things over.

He never missed a chance to express his gratitude and apology to Wu Xia, looking utterly humble compared to his arrogant demeanor from the other day.

Yuan Zhengzhong also showed a relieved smile at his grandson’s transformation.

Only Wu Xia’s lips slightly curved upwards, knowing what was on Yuan Lang’s mind.

However, since the other party wouldn’t speak out, he wasn’t going to offer help voluntarily.

Sincerely, there wasn’t much for the group to talk about, and after they had eaten, Yuan Zhengzhong presented his apology gift, which Wu Xia originally intended to refuse until Yaoji immediately spoke up.

"Husband, take it, it’s a treasure!"

Seeing that even Yaoji was excited about it, Wu Xia didn’t refuse and happily accepted the gift.

Yuan Zhengzhong was relieved and happily bid farewell to Wu Xia.

Yuan Lang appeared distressed, realising his issue was still unresolved as they were about to leave.

Just as he was stepping out the door, Yuan Lang finally couldn’t hold back and knelt down to Wu Xia with a thud.

"Mr. Wu, I agree to your terms. Please treat my illness!"

At these words, everyone was stunned.

Especially Su Yuxuan, who turned to stone right there and then, her face paling instantly.

She hadn’t expected her beloved husband, whom she had never despised for his shortcomings, to agree to such terms with the formidable Wu Xia and send her to another man’s bed?

Her eyes instantly moistened, and tears began to flow uncontrollably.

Yuan Zhengzhong’s expression also turned ugly, as after all, that was Yuan Family’s daughter-in-law. It’s one thing to admit a mistake, but being cuckolded was even more painful than being killed.

But thinking about curing Yuan Lang and ensuring the Yuan Family could continue its lineage, he could only endure it, lowering his head to look at Wu Xia.

"Mr. Wu, initially, I thought I would seek your help next time, but since my son has brought it up now, I can only earnestly request that you help," he said, bowing deeply.

Wu Xia frowned slightly, his gaze resting on Su Yuxuan, who was weeping miserably; his heart felt incredibly heavy and mixed with emotions.

He even felt a bit pained—his goddess, his first love, had now become just a tool in someone else’s transactions.

Before, when they were in love, even though it was painful, at least Su Yuxuan was happy.

But the Su Yuxuan now, what happiness did she have?

"My condition was meant for her. If she is unwilling, then there are no conditions at all!"
