Su Changzhi pondered repeatedly in his heart about his father’s words, knowing only his father was aware of where Lin Yue’er had reincarnated.
Could this mean that Gu Lili was not Lin Yue’er?
But how could that be possible?
He loved Gu Lili, fond of her from the bottom of his heart. How could she not be the one?
Besides Lin Yue’er, he felt he could not possibly love another.
Could it be that his father said this on purpose?
For a moment, he could not fathom his father’s thoughts.
The Netherworld King Hall instantly fell quiet, as everyone’s gaze turned towards Su Changzhi, including Gu Lili.
"Father, are you saying that Lili is not the reincarnation of Lin Yue’er?"
"Do you think Miss Gu is the reincarnation of Lin Yue’er, and that’s why you wish to marry her?" The Netherworld King deflected with another question.
"Please give me an honest answer, Father. Is Lili truly the reincarnation of Lin Yue’er? Your son begs you," Su Changzhi knelt down, palms facing downwards, forehead touching the ground.
"In that case, I will tell you. She is not the reincarnation of Lin Yue’er. If you still wish to marry her, deciding to let go of Lin Yue’er, I will agree to your marriage. The matter of marriage is not trivial, I hope you think it through carefully, and don’t end up divorcing after getting married."
Su Changzhi suddenly raised his head, "Is Father deceiving me? If she is not Lin Yue’er, then why would I fall in love with her?"
"Who decreed that a person can only love one woman in all eternity? Could it be that you only think you love her because you see her as Lin Yue’er?" the Netherworld King sighed, "I could have kept it from you. Even if I didn’t tell, you would never know if she is the reincarnation of Lin Yue’er. But I think it’s unfair to Miss Gu. Why should she become a substitute for Lin Yue’er? Therefore, I told you. Think about it carefully, don’t suspect that I am deceiving you; I couldn’t be bothered to do so."
"Father, is every word you said true?" He was still uncertain, "Is Lili really not her reincarnation?"
"I have already told you before, do not blindly hope to find her reincarnation. I will not let you find it so easily. That woman, I don’t want to lay eyes on her! What can she possibly do to have both my sons so besotted with her? If it weren’t for her, this calamity, what state would your Seventh Brother be in? And as for you, Ninth, even if you found her, let me tell you plainly, I will never agree to you marrying her. You can marry any woman but her!"
At that moment, Su Changzhi understood, his father had not hidden the truth from him.
Gu Lili was not the reincarnation of Lin Yue’er.
Disappointment showed in his eyes, clearly seen by Gu Lili standing beside him.
She felt an inexplicable relief in her heart.
She hadn’t expected Lin Yue’er to have both the Seventh Prince and Ninth Prince fall in love with her.
What exactly had happened between the three of them?
After all, it was none of her concern.
Right now, Gu Lili just wanted to leave this place.
"Father, I no longer wish to get married." The source of this content ɪs N0v3l.Fiɾe.net
The Netherworld King’s expression remained indifferent, "Whether you marry or not is up to you."
As they left that place, Su Changzhi walked ahead, with Gu Lili following behind him, not walking alongside him.
He did not hold her hand again as he had done on the way there.
Until they reached the entrance of his residence, he turned around.
The look in his eyes had less warmth than before, "You once told me, should I ever tire of you, to give you a way out. I am now tired of you. I will not allow you to be her substitute, hence you are now free. There is nothing between us any longer."
