Rong Fei’s eyelids flicked open, "If there’s anything in the future, just send me a message, and after I’ve verified it, I’ll definitely take care of it. Our reputation in the Demon World is not too good, but we’re actively trying to repair how the other realms view us."
"If that’s the case, then in the future, if I come across anything of this sort again, I’ll send you a message. There’s nothing else, you may leave now."
"A question not on the subject," Rong Fei asked, "Have you found the woman you were searching up and down in Youyou Valley?"
"I don’t speak of it, but it doesn’t mean I’m unaware of it," Long Yubei casually brought up the matter, "Ding Xiang said she wanted to see me before her reincarnation to the Ghost Messenger, and when I met her, she told me everything. Rong Fei, the reason I didn’t confront you earlier is simply because I found you very petty in this matter. I didn’t feel like engaging in further debate with someone as despicable as you. When you went to the underworld later to find her, weren’t you trying to intercept her soul and utterly annihilate her?"
Rong Fei couldn’t shift the suspicion onto Gu Lili with such a statement.
"It wasn’t like that," Rong Fei replied, "At the time, I already knew her soul must have gone to the underworld, and it couldn’t be brought back, how could I then let it scatter? I merely thought she was certainly in the queue for reincarnation, not expecting her to be reborn so quickly." ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ NoveI-Fire.ɴet
Before Long Yubei could speak, the text message notification on his phone chimed. He took out his phone and glanced at the message content, then asked indifferently, "Where did you throw Ding Xiang’s remains?"
"They haven’t been buried to this day; the body is intact."
"Return her remains to me, and I will see to her proper burial in the ground."
"You may have it," Rong Fei replied promptly, "I just didn’t expect that you knew about this all along but never confronted me. Could it be because you knew her reincarnated identity?"
"I do not know; only my father knows about the reincarnation process. Knowing that she is living a new life is enough for me. As for your actions, Rong Fei, can you even respect yourself? It’s despicable to the extreme, trapping an ordinary woman without cultivation within your Barrier. It’s clear to see, the esteemed Young Master of the Demon World feels quite accomplished in dealing with such a defenseless woman. Send her remains to me; I will find a graveyard for her burial."
Rong Fei, watching his retreating figure, had a ghastly pale expression. Long Yubei’s sarcasm hit him hard.
Upon returning to Youyou Valley, he walked over to Ding Xiang’s body, lifted the cloth covering her face, and stared at it for several seconds before having it sent back to Long Yubei.
Lying in bed alone, Rong Fei’s mind was filled with the scenes from those brief days, a woman who had never been intimate with him yet remained in his memory.
At the time, he didn’t think much of it and felt indifferent.
Now, he regretted doing (indescribable) things with another woman in front of Ding Xiang.
In her eyes, he truly became an utterly despicable man.
He hated having such feelings.
After syncing the original soundtrack of a TV drama for half a month, Long Tianjiao and Liang He bid farewell to the production team behind the scenes.
The drama would premiere after the New Year, with a while to go before promotion.
Long Tianjiao and Liang He had already planned to get married after the drama finished airing.
Therefore, they had already started preparing for the wedding.
Today, early in the morning, their measurements had been sent to a world-famous bridal photographer to customize their wedding dresses and suits.
