"I hope these invisible people never show up in front of me again, it’s too terrifying."
"Wait, come with me and bury the corpse that Su Changzhi borrowed."
Gu Xichen, feeling good, readily agreed, "Okay."
"Why didn’t you bring Jingsheng with you?"
"She went to the hospital for a full check-up."
Gu Lili nodded, "Be nice to her, she protects you every day."
"My conscience is clear, I couldn’t treat her any better," Gu Xichen asked, "Where do you plan to bury that body?" Orıginal content can be found at noⅴelfire.net
"Just find a spot on this mountain, taking it to a crematorium would require too much paperwork."
"To be honest..." Gu Xichen’s gaze fell on the cross-stitch on the wall, "Embroidering Ninth Prince stitch by stitch, do you still have feelings for him?"
"Do you want the truth?"
"I like him, but I’m also afraid of him," Gu Lili continued, "My feelings for him, like those for you and Antonio, are mainly because he has done too much for me, so much that I can’t repay him even if he allows me to."
Gu Xichen was unhappy, "I hope I hold a different place in your heart than Antonio."
"Well, there’s no helping it, you and he are not that different."
"Gu Lili, can’t you say something I’d like to hear?"
Gu Lili gave a slight smile, "I don’t want to lie out of conscience."
After dinner, Gu Xichen called someone to deliver a coffin, and then dug a hole in a nearby grove, placed the coffin in it, and asked everyone to leave.
The two placed the corpse inside the coffin, closed the lid, and Gu Lili nailed it shut. They began filling the hole with soil.
The weather was cold, but they warmed up from the activity and began sweating heavily.
On the way back, the two walked together.
"Let’s go sing tonight, call Neo and Jingsheng too."
Gu Xichen, seeing she was indeed in a good mood, gladly agreed, "Sure, I’ll book a spot and send you the details."
For Gu Lili, it felt as if a weight had been lifted off her shoulders in the blink of an eye.
She had no intention of telling Long Yubei, because she had no plans of getting back together with him.
Sitting alone in the courtyard, looking up at the sky, her mood was absolutely splendid.
From anxiety and unease yesterday, today she was completely free.
The change was too sudden.
It was truly wonderful.
Ever since Shen Congmo got married, Ye Ying’s passion for Shen Congmo completely evaporated.
She had completely lost hope.
Her academic performance had never been good, and now it had come to a complete halt.
Ye Mu was incredibly worried as she watched her daughter either shop, play games, or sleep all day, "Are you really going to waste your days at such a young age? You’re not even going to school."
"Mom, do you know what news I just saw?"
"I’m asking if you’re going to waste your young life ?"
"Of course not, but listen to me, I just saw a piece of entertainment news, it said that Liang He’s new movie’s lead actress is Long Tianjiao, hahahaha, has Liang lost his mind, can Long Tianjiao even act?"
"You mind your business, at least she has something she wants to do, what about you?" Ye Mu sternly asked, "What do you want to do?"
"I haven’t figured out what I want to do yet, what’s the hurry, I’m only 20 years old, in the prime of my youth, can you let me just play for another two years?"
