Mr. CEO Wants to Renew Our Contract-Chapter 1028: With You (173)

Xu Mohan could not be more pleased, "Thank you, Father."

After the banquet ended, Gu Lili had to stay in the Heavenly World to discuss Heavenly matters with Jun Yu, while Long Yubei returned to the mortal world alone.

Hong Ying intercepted him.

"Long Chan, I have something to say to you."

Long Yubei looked at her and after some thought said, "Hong Ying, just as well, I have something to discuss with you too. Let’s find a secluded place."

Hong Ying nodded and followed him to a desolate mountain forest.

"You go first." A thin smile played on Long Yubei’s lips.

Looking at his face, Hong Ying felt like she was in a dream, "I’ve indeed been secretly observing you all this time and discovered the secret that Jun Li is actually Gu Lili. Only then did I realize why you would have an arranged marriage with her at the Six Realms conference—because she was always the one you loved."

Long Yubei didn’t speak, letting her continue, "I like you, really like you a lot. I once imagined countless times of being a mom with two kids, even made many efforts to gain their favor and get close to them. I used to think you noticed all this. You smiled gently at me many times, and I believed it wouldn’t be long before we would be together. Yet, now we can’t even be friends."

"I’m sorry, at first, I mistook you for her real form, only to later find it wasn’t the case."

Hong Ying wore a mocking smile, "I really can’t see what’s so good about her."

"I know all her virtues." Long Yubei showed displeasure in his eyes, disliking even a half-word against Gu Lili.

"Don’t think she’s now someone important in the Heavenly World. Even if I can’t deal with her, her various enemies would never tolerate her truly looking down on the Six Realms. Just wait, your good days are still to come!"

"I won’t take your last sentence as sarcasm. Thank you for your blessing, indeed our good days are ahead, but your end is near." Long Yubei’s eyes lost any trace of smile, he reached out effortlessly and gripped her neck, pinning her whole body against a tree, "This is what I meant by having something to discuss with you, Hong Ying. To die by my hand, at least your life wasn’t wasted."

Hong Ying’s eyes widened suddenly, struggling fiercely, but at this moment found that his mana left her completely powerless, "Long Chan, are you avenging her?"

"To kill you doesn’t need her to dirty her hands. I will do it."

"Xiangyi." Feng Qinglian, after all, called out to her.

She and Xu Mohan turned back to see him, Jun Xiangyi’s voice was devoid of any warmth, "What do you want?"

"Can I talk to you alone?"

"I advise you not to. If I lose control of myself, I might kill you with my own hands."

"You won’t. You just appeared to the public; if you kill your ex-husband, what will people think?"

I have to admit, this guy knew her concerns, Jun Xiangyi snorted, "My reputation is already bad enough, do I care what others think of me anymore?"

"You do, because you don’t do it for yourself, you have to think about Xu Mohan, right?"

"She doesn’t have to think about me." Xu Mohan said, his hands folded behind his back, coldly looking at him, completely unwelcoming, "Say what you have to say, if not, get lost."

Feng Qinglian had his jaw clenched tight, looking at Jun Xiangyi, "There are some things I want to tell you alone, things you want to know."

"No need, I’m not interested in knowing anymore."

"Then can you tell me about the child..."

Upon him mentioning the child, Jun Xiangyi barely resisted the urge to kill him, "I guess that child must have some self-awareness, that knowing he wouldn’t receive complete love from both parents, decided to leave on his own. I don’t want to say anything more, Feng Qinglian, I truly don’t want to see you even for a moment."
