"Ji Ling, can you tell me everything, please?" Lin Yueer was ready to go all out to get the answer, "If you tell me, I am willing to give you two thousand years of my cultivation."
Ji Ling’s eyes brightened, "Two thousand years of cultivation? You’re really willing to part with that much?"
Ji Ling’s mouth curled up slightly; she was more than happy to use someone else to do her dirty work.
After leaving the underworld, Ji Ling took her deep into a forest.
"You give me the cultivation first, then I’ll tell you."
"What if I give it to you and you don’t talk?"
"I am not that shameless."
Lin Yueer gritted her teeth and transferred two thousand years of her hard-earned cultivation to Ji Ling; her own power was instantly halved.
"Can you tell me now?"
"I can tell you, but you have to promise you won’t reveal to anyone that it was me who told you. That way, when something happens in the underworld in the future, I can still give you a heads up. After all, the underworld isn’t a place where you can come and go as you please anymore."
Lin Yueer hummed in agreement, "I promise."
"Alright then, after you reincarnated, Long Chan followed you to the underworld. He assumed a new identity in the mortal world, with the name Long Yubei and even got married there. Although he divorced, his love for his ex-wife in the mortal world was profound. After returning to his true self, he didn’t remember his mortal life, so he went to the Netherworld King to seek your whereabouts, and he found you."
Lin Yueer couldn’t help wanting to know more, "And then?"
"Su Changzhi found you first. I’m not very clear about the details only known to the three of you, I’m not the person involved. I only know that you ended up with Long Chan and not with Su Changzhi. If it had been the other way around, Su would not have possibly collaborated with Gu Lili to get married."
"What does that mean?"
"It means that Su Changzhi’s initial marriage to Gu Lili was not out of love; it was a transaction. Because you were with Long Chan, Gu Lili wanted Long Yubei with his mortal memories, while Su Changzhi wanted you. But unexpectedly, even after Long Yubei regained his mortal memories, he chose to be with you, so those two ended up living together due to their mistaken situation."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yueer felt a surge of excitement, "So you’re saying, Long Chan loves me? Then why does he say he doesn’t love me anymore? Is it because his father is forcing him?" Follow current novels on novel~fire~net
Ji Ling leaped onto a tree branch, and Lin Yueer followed, sitting beside her.
"He indeed doesn’t love you anymore, otherwise why would he not be with you? It’s pretty clear; he just doesn’t love you anymore. The one he probably still loves is the mother of his child."
Lin Yueer’s eyes blazed with anger, "The mother of his child?"
"It’s Gu Lili, Su Changzhi’s wife. I would bet that the child in her womb is one hundred percent Long Chan’s."
Lin Yueer felt as if she had been Thunderstruck, "What?!!!!!!"
"Hard to believe, right? After the Netherworld King found out, he was livid. I heard he gave Gu Lili three choices: take the child, take Su Changzhi, or take both but face severe punishment. She chose the third option and miraculously survived. It’s really not easy for a human woman. If you hadn’t given me those two thousand years of cultivation, I wouldn’t have bothered to tell you."
"You mean... they both fell in love with that woman?!" Lin Yueer was nearly driven mad with jealousy; that was the treatment she was supposed to receive.
"I can’t really confirm whether Su Changzhi is in love or not right now, but Long Chan definitely is."
"That woman is now living with Su Changzhi, isn’t she? Does she want them both?"
