"It’s completely impossible." Long Yubei said with contentment, "Third brother must be so annoyed by now, marrying a notorious Goddess, where’s the glory in that for him?"
"Yuesheng will definitely split up with third brother."
"Third brother has no choice, I wonder if he has told Yuesheng."
Gu Lili suggested, "Why don’t you try to ask subtly?"
"I don’t want to ask." Long Yubei said lazily, "She’s not a child. After what she’s been through with Ling Qi, this is really nothing to her, she can handle it."
Gu Lili sat up and started to apply sunscreen. Official source ıs NoveI[F]ire.net
The climate here is warm, and the sunlight really makes people lazy.
"Arranged marriages are so annoying." After a while, she said, "Using marriage as a bargaining chip for interests, the Heavenly Clan and your Netherworld arranging marriages just to solidify the relationship between the two tribes? Just drawing lots without caring if people actually like each other."
"In wealthy families, it’s mostly the same, this is the norm. Matching social and financial status is the highest priority."
"Suddenly I feel it’s a good thing I wasn’t born into a wealthy family. Otherwise, you don’t even get a say in your own marriage, there’s no freedom. Not everyone can be like Feng Xitian who found someone she likes who is also from a wealthy family. Many people don’t have such fortune."
"You haven’t even looked for your biological parents, how can you be sure they’re not from a wealthy family?" Long Yubei raised an eyebrow, "It’s possible, your parents could be those powerful and influential types."
"Why would those types of people abandon a child?" Gu Lili turned to look at him, "Can’t afford to raise?"
"It might not have been their intention."
"So what you’re saying is, I might have been discarded by someone who disagreed with my parents?"
"It’s not impossible."
Gu Lili hesitated for a moment, the existence of her biological parents was something she had already gotten used to not having, she had even come to regard her adoptive mother as her real mother.
"Although it’s possible, I still don’t want to go looking." Gu Lili put the sunscreen aside and lay down again, facing him, "The days when I lacked the love of my biological parents are long gone, I don’t need them anymore, no matter who they are, no matter if they abandoned me on purpose or it was unintentional like you said, it’s no longer important to me. They gave me life, that’s true, but if it wasn’t for my master picking me up, I wouldn’t have survived at all. Gratitude for upbringing is greater than for birth. I’m not curious about who they are, nor do I want to find them. Now I have more important things to do; I need to raise my child, I need to find the Huiling Sword, and I also need to discover who my true self is."
"In all the things you plan to do, the only thing that doesn’t involve me," Long Yubei was unhappy, "What exactly am I to you now?"
"You..." She pretended to ponder deeply, "Your place is in the corner nook."
Long Yubei felt dejected, turning his body away with haughty playfulness, "I’m not talking to you anymore."
Hearing his slightly coquettish tone, Gu Lili couldn’t help but laugh, adding insult to injury, "What a fool."
The two enjoyed themselves for a few days, and honestly, after staying here for a few days, Gu Lili’s entire nerves had relaxed.
Naturally, she was extremely happy.
They were leaving in five days, and Long Yubei still wanted to go on vacation elsewhere, but Gu Lili really missed her child and didn’t want to continue partying just the two of them. If the child was with them, she would have been up for it.
