Douluo Continent II: The Peerless Tang Sect: Starting with a Bond to God King Tang San

Chapter 64 Wang Dong's Invitation

Upon hearing her mother's voice, Ma Xiaotao sighed softly. She had been raised by Yan Shaozhe since childhood, who was both her teacher and her adoptive father.

In her spare time, she couldn't help but wonder what kind of people her biological parents were.

Is he a powerful Soul Master with a mighty Martial Soul, or is he like an ordinary person, living a simple life with gentle eyes and a kind heart?

Seeing that Ma Xiaotao remained silent, Deng Mu couldn't help but ask, "Sister Xiaotao, what's wrong?"

Hearing Deng Mu's words, Ma Xiaotao came back to her senses, shook her head, and said, "It's nothing, I was just thinking about some things."

Seeing Ma Xiaotao's expression, Deng Mu guessed what she was thinking.

He probably thought of her own parents. He remembered that Ma Xiaotao was raised by Yan Shaozhe. Hearing him mention his mother made him think of what her own parents were like.

Deng Mu took Ma Xiaotao's hand and joked, "Then, shall I take Sister Xiaotao back with me to meet my mother-in-law?"

Ma Xiaotao playfully shook off Deng Mu's hand, "You naughty boy, if you keep teasing me like that, I'll really get angry."

Though she remained defiant, a blush crept onto her cheeks, and a hint of panic lingered in her eyes.

However, because of Deng Mu's words, my longing for my parents lessened somewhat.

She knew very well that something must have happened to her parents, otherwise why had she never seen them?

Moreover, the teacher never mentioned the parents, who are probably deceased for many years.

Deng Mu took Ma Xiaotao's hand and said, "Sister Xiaotao, don't be sad. You still have me. I will always be with you."

He remembered that the original novel didn't seem to mention Ma Xiaotao's parents, so they probably died in some accident and were found by Yan Shaozhe.

The Tang family loves to have love triangles or stories about parents suddenly disappearing; he's used to these kinds of things.

Hearing Deng Mu's words, Ma Xiaotao felt a warmth in her heart, and at the same time, a little embarrassed. She hugged Deng Mu and whispered, "Yes, it's so good to have you here."

After chatting for a while, Ma Xiaotao said goodbye to Deng Mu and left Deng Mu's house.

……

The next day, in the morning.

Deng Mu packed his things and waited for Tang Ya and Jiang Nannan downstairs in the Foreign Languages ​​Department dormitory.

"Huh? Xiao Mu, what are you doing here?"

After waiting downstairs for a while, I heard Wang Dong's voice from behind me.

Upon hearing Wang Dong's voice, Deng Mu looked back and saw Wang Dong walking towards him.

Deng Mu looked at Wang Dong and smiled, saying, "Good morning. I'm here to wait for Sister Xiaoya and the others so we can go home together."

When Wang Dong learned that Deng Mu and Tang Ya had returned home, he asked curiously, "Are they your biological sisters? But I remember you don't seem to have the same surname."

She had often heard Deng Mu call Tang Ya and Jiang Nannan "sister," and she always assumed it was because the three of them had a good relationship.

How is that possible? A family can have several different surnames.

Deng Mu scratched his head, his smile undiminished, and explained, "They're not my biological sisters, but to me they're no different from my biological sisters. I was picked up by my mother, and Sister Xiaoya was picked up by me."

Although he said he was engaged to Tang Ya, he always regarded Tang Ya as an older sister, not as his fiancée.

After listening to Deng Mu's explanation, Wang Dong nodded to show that he understood, but he was a little surprised. He hadn't expected Deng Mu to take Tang Ya home.

Wang Dong looked at Deng Mu, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Xiao Mu, could you come home with me next time you have a holiday?"

After speaking, she looked at Deng Mu somewhat embarrassed, worried that he might reject her.

She wanted to take Deng Mu to meet her second and third uncles so that Deng Mu could gain their approval. If her father didn't like Deng Mu, then her second and third uncles could speak up for Deng Mu.

However, given her second and third fathers' personalities, it would be difficult to get them to accept Deng Mu, but she was confident that she could persuade them.

Hearing Wang Dong's invitation, Deng Mu looked at Wang Dong with some surprise.

He hadn't expected that Wang Dong would invite him to the Haotian Sect. Could it be that he was taking him to meet Da Ming and Er Ming?

At this point, Wang Dong addressed Da Ming and Er Ming as "Big Uncle" and "Second Uncle," a truly difficult way to put on airs.

Deng Mu thought for a moment, looked at Wang Dong, and said, "Okay, I'll go back with you then."

Wang Dong was overjoyed to see that Deng Mu had agreed to go back with her.

Deng Mu leaned close to Wang Dong's ear and whispered, "When the time comes, you'll have to meet your parents-in-law."

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

He suddenly realized something interesting: Tang Hao and the others were now treating him as an illegitimate child, but Xiao Wu and Wang Dong were unaware of this.

Wang Dong took him back and said that she had fallen in love with him. Tang San was probably completely stunned, and Tang San would stop this from happening.

Wang Dong blushed, lightly punched Deng Mu, and scolded, "You're always joking around, stop being so glib!"

But the smile on her lips couldn't be hidden. Her heart was filled with anticipation for bringing Deng Mu home next year. Various scenes were already in her mind. One moment she was worried that her second and third fathers were too strict, and the next she was imagining the scene after Deng Mu was recognized.

She and Deng Mu will definitely be together. Even if the King of Heaven himself came, it wouldn't matter; nothing could stop them from being together.

If her father tries to stop her, she will ask her mother and uncle to speak on her behalf.

She was very confident. The uncles and elders adored her, and Aunt Xiao Lü and the others treated her exceptionally well. It was certain that she and Deng Mu would be together.

She had already admitted to Deng Mu that she was a girl, because she felt that since she had already let it slip, there was no need to hide it from Deng Mu. If someone else took her away, she would have nowhere to cry.

Deng Mu grasped Wang Dong's hand and joked, "Yes, after you meet your parents, I'll take you to meet your mother-in-law."

Wang Dong rolled her eyes playfully. "You're always joking around. But it's interesting. We can talk about meeting your mother-in-law later."

Despite saying that, my heart was pounding like a rabbit's, filled with both excitement and anticipation as I imagined spending time with Deng Mu's family.

Hearing Wang Dong's words, Deng Mu smiled and said, "It seems, Dong'er, you admit you like me?"

Wang Dong's cheeks flushed red. She turned her head away and muttered, "Hmph, you think you know everything? It's obvious, why do you have to ask? How annoying!"

But the way she held Deng Mu's hand tightly betrayed her true feelings.

At this moment, Wang Dong saw Tang Ya and Jiang Nannan coming downstairs, and he quickly let go and fled.

Deng Mu was taken aback by Wang Dong's sudden action. Watching her hurried departure, he shook his head with a helpless smile.

Tang Ya and Jiang Nannan walked over and saw Deng Mu's appearance. Tang Ya teased, "Hey, Xiao Mu, what happened? We just saw you chatting and laughing with Wang Dong here. How come he ran away in the blink of an eye?"
