Mr. CEO Wants to Renew Our Contract-Chapter 1052: With You Always (197)
Really timely arrival. ๐๐ซ๐๐ฒ๐๐๐ฏ๐๐จ๐ง๐๐.๐๐ ๐ฆ
Gu Lili stood up and calmly said to her younger brother, "Letโs go back."
"Okay."
After leaving Yunxiao Palace, Gu Lili patted Long Yubei, "What are you here for?"
"To pick you up, of course."
"Do I need you to pick me up?"
Long Yubei slightly lifted his chin, "I am willing."
Perhaps affected by the childโs abduction tonight, Gu Lili had nightmares all night, constantly running and fighting. In the end, she dreamed that Long Yubei fell into Nila Lake to protect her. When she woke up from the nightmare, it was already bright outside.
Long Yubei had obviously gone to work.
She leaned against the bed head, her breath still unsteady.
She thought to herself, itโs probably just a dream.
After all, what is Nila Lake, itโs impossible for her and him to go there.
Speaking of Nila Lake, it has a long history.
Itโs located at the border between the Heavenly Realm and the Demon World.
Four hundred thousand years ago, the Demon Worldโs ancestor Rong Ye was suppressed and sealed at the bottom of this lake by the Heavenly Realmโs ancestor Jun Hao, which led to the Demon World conceding defeat to the Heavenly Realm and taking second place, submitting a peace treaty.
Nila Lake is a place no one dares to approach. People from both the Demon World and the Heavenly Realm dare not get close. Once, someone with curiosity tried to go down and see what situation Jun Hao and Rong Ye were in, but those who went in never came out alive.
But strangely, although they didnโt come out alive, their names on the Book of Life and Death remained lit.
No one knows if theyโre dead or alive, but automatically no one dared to get close again.
In the past, the Demon Clan was widely regarded as the most ruthless clan in the other realms.
Now, with the change of eras, the Demon World has become increasingly similar to the other realms.
She got dressed, applied light makeup, and casually pinned her hair at the back of her head before going downstairs for breakfast.
"Young Madam, here you go."
Gu Lili saw him handing over a new wedding invitation and asked, "Whoโs it from?"
"Nan Yueshengโs."
She was taken aback, "Nan Yueshengโs? With whom?"
"This man is her best friend of over twenty years, his name is Wen Tianlei."
Gu Lili opened the invitation and saw the wedding was to be held tomorrow at the Crown Grand Hotel in City B.
The invitation listed that she and Long Yubei were required to attend together.
She sat at the dining table and called Long Yubei.
"Nan Yuesheng sent us a wedding invitation. The groom is her best friend of over twenty years, and the wedding is tomorrow in City B. Weโre invited to attend together, shall we go?"
"Since weโve been invited, letโs go."
"How much should I prepare for the red envelope?"
"That... Iโll take care of it."
"Okay, then Iโll hang up."
Gu Lili hung up the phone, and Chang Tai had already brought breakfast.
Just as she put down her phone, a call from Jun Xiangyi came in.
She pressed the answer key and turned on the speaker to not affect eating.
"Aunt."
"Hmm, whatโs up?"
"Nan Yuesheng had Shan Langyuan bring us a wedding invitation, specifically stating that Old Xu should attend with his wife."
Gu Lili was unsurprised, "Thereโs already a precedent for attending an ex-wifeโs wedding, itโs normal. She probably wants you to witness her happiness. Are you going?"
"Since she dared to send the invitation, we naturally dare to go, otherwise wouldnโt that make us look like cowards? That Shan Langyuan never does anything good, only bad things by the dozen. He could have just refused, but he didnโt say what he should, and said everything he shouldnโt. He got scolded harshly by his third brother."
"If youโre going, then just go, weโve also been invited along with your uncle." Gu Lili sighed, "Nan Yuesheng got so much wealth from Xu Mohan, her best friend is really lucky, marrying her is like marrying a gold mine."
