He felt disgust arising inside his heart. He was the King’s child, the imperial son whose mother was Princess Jing. He was the most honorable Lord Ling! However, now he had to marry a woman who had shared the bed with another man! If she had been an ordinary woman, he could just leave her no matter what her family was like, but she was the very Pheonix Girl who could help him get the world! So no matter how much he disliked her, he had to marry her!
In the past few days, Xie Yan had an analysis about the situation. He could tolerate everything if he could get the world, but when he got the world, he was not going to take another look at this woman.
However, as he was dressed in the red robe and sitting on the horse-back and listening to the loud noise of drums and trumps, he felt very uncomfortable inside his heart, very uncomfortable. He felt so demeaned.
And the moment he walked into the Gu Mansion and spotted Gu Zhenkang’s smiling face, he felt like killing! However, in the end, he had to show a fake smile after all.
He sighed and showed a very bitter look on his face.
Seeing the scene, Xie Yan whispered to him. “Lord, please keep it down, she is the Phoenix Girl...”
Zhou Huailing tried his best to regain the smile. Okay, for the sake of the world, he could try to tolerate all.
On the way to his wedding, Zhou Huailing spotted a silhouette not faraway. She was not dressed in the white blouse she normally liked. For this important day, she was dressed in a yellow blouse with no makeup on, but she still looked very pretty. She looked so happy, as she kept smiling all the time.
Zhou Huailing felt his vision blurry. That was the girl he had been seeking. If the birthmark on her face was not there, she would definitely be the most beautiful girl in the whole city.
Zhou Huailing suddenly felt slightly delighted.
Gu Chaoyan had been speaking with Zhou Huailing and Gu Yunxuan, when she felt someone staring at her. Soon her smile disappeared, and she started to frown. She looked up subconsciously and saw Zhou Huailing’s stare. She somehow felt very disgusted.
Zhou Huaijin noticed that too. He stood up and came to stand in front of Gu Chaoyan.
Zhou Huailing got very pissed as he saw a tall figure blocking Gu Chaoyan. He almost forgot about that. He almost forgot that the woman he dreamed about was now Zhou Huaijin’s.
He showed a very wild smile. So what?
When he became the king, the woman was still going to be his.
He stopped staring at her.
Zhou Huailing started to gather up energy and looked rather determined. Yes, he was going to marry the Phoenix Girl! As long as he got her, he could get the whole world. He would just bear one moment of displeasure.
Zhou Huailing looked extremely confident.
Xie Yan sighed in relief. Lord Ling had not been performing well today, and he was very anxious too. He worried that Lord Ling would suddenly regret his decision – but now, it seemed that he was not going to.
In order to show that he was paying great attention to Gu Ruxue, he decided to carry her out of the room personally, but Zhou Huailing felt that the walk to that room was way too long.
After a long while, he finally came to the Yard.
Gu Ruxue was already waiting for him dressed in the red robe. Someone reminded her that Lord Ling was here.
Gu Ruxue cheerfully took hold of the red robe, and said bashfully, “Greetings, Lord.”
Zhou Huailing felt discomfort arising inside him again.
