She anxiously asked, "How is the Ninth Prince now?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Lili immediately said, "Please take me to see him, okay?"
Xiao Hei then seriously said to her, "Miss Gu, before I take you there, there are a few things I need to tell you,"
"Go ahead." Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on novelFɪre.net
"Even though our Ninth Prince is divorced, you can never take the position of Ninth Princess Consort. The Netherworld King will never agree to him marrying you. But since the Ninth Prince wants you, from now on you must follow him peacefully and not engage in love and marriage with the men of the mortal world. Do not let down his wholehearted devotion to you."
"My life is already his. I’m not qualified to fall in love or marry any other man..."
"Just remember this at all times, let’s go."
Gu Lili responded with a hum.
Gu Lili imagined many scenarios, but none of them came close to the current state of the Ninth Prince.
He lay there, eyes tightly closed, motionless.
In her memory, she had hardly met the Ninth Prince.
Apart from his written notes, she hadn’t spoken a word to him, let alone known what his voice sounded like.
She couldn’t understand why he would be willing to do this for her...
Gu Xichen and Antonio’s affection for her, she could understand, as she had earned their respect.
But this Ninth Prince seemed to treat her well without her having done anything.
This kindness made her feel panicked and unimaginable.
Leaving her no way to reciprocate.
His kindness to her was too great, she feared she would never be able to repay it.
Gu Lili sat by the bedside, looking at him, and turned her head to ask Xiao Hei, "I don’t even know the Prince’s name, can you tell me?"
Xiao Hei replied, "I dare not speak the Prince’s name. If you want to know, you can ask him when he wakes up. I’ll leave you now."
"She deserves it!" Ye Ying, while looking at her tablet and reading the news comments cursed, "That’s her retribution, abandoned by the Long Family!"
While drinking tea, Ye Mu said, "I heard it was Gu Lili who insisted on divorcing, and Long Yubei didn’t want to."
"How could that be possible." Ye Ying totally disagreed, "What’s her status, and what’s Long Yubei’s status? I think it’s more like it was Gu Lili who desperately didn’t want to divorce."
While saying this, Ye Ying let out a gasp.
"What’s with the shock and alarm now?"
"Mom! It says here that Shen Congmo has been going on arranged meetings, and today he met with the only daughter of the Jin Family!" Ye Ying said resentfully, "That Jin Miaomiao is so-so at best, what right does she have to meet with him!"
Ye Mu thought her reaction was too extreme, "What’s wrong with her appearance? I’ve seen her, she’s quite pretty and has a gentle demeanor. In your eyes, besides yourself, anyone associated with Shen Congmo is ugly."
"She’s not pretty at all, just a face full of plastic surgery, what’s so good about that."
"Nowadays it’s all about minor cosmetic procedures, getting double eyelids or a nose bridge is too normal, whether it’s Shen Congmo going on arranged meetings or whatever, it’s none of your business. Stop bothering him, just when things have calmed down, don’t go stirring up trouble again."
Ye Ying was furious, "Why is it okay for others but not me? What’s wrong with me?"
"Nothing’s wrong with you, but the fact that he doesn’t like you is enough. Yingying, there are plenty of good men out there, it’s not just Shen Congmo."
"Yes, there are indeed plenty of good men, but I just happen to like him. I want to give up, but I just can’t do it. Mom, please talk to Dad, have a talk with the Shen Family, and arrange a meeting between him and me?"
