Mr. CEO Wants to Renew Our Contract-Chapter 886: With You Always (31)
Long Yubei thought for a moment and said, "Let her stay in a room with the two children. No one would expect that. Staying in Villa No. 9 isn’t practical. If she gets discovered, it could be very troublesome. Keeping her in a secret room would make her feel suffocated. It’s better for her to accompany the children so she won’t feel lonely. After all, there’s still a long way ahead, and we don’t know when she’ll be able to step into the sunlight and appear before others again."
"Will the children agree?"
"I’ll have a good talk with them tomorrow morning, and I’ll make sure they are absolutely committed to keeping it a secret."
The two embraced and slept peacefully for the night. The next morning, during a breakfast break, Long Yubei said, "Today, there will be a pretty sister staying in your room. Dad will have your beds replaced with one big bed."
The twins were dumbfounded.
"Dad, we’re only five! Are you expecting grandchildren this early?!" stars said, utterly shocked.
Long Yubei scoffed, "How is that possible? That pretty sister is someone your mom is helping. She’s currently on the run from bad people and has nowhere else to go."
"We have so many guest rooms in our house. Why must she stay in our room?" listen asked, puzzled.
"She’d be really bored on her own, and she has to hide for a long time. Staying in your room can keep her entertained, and hiding in your room is the safest option."
"Then why don’t you get her a maid to chat with her?"
Long Yubei said solemnly, "We can’t let outsiders know she’s here. Don’t you understand what I mean? If outsiders find out she’s in our house, not only will her life be in danger, but your mom and I could also be in serious trouble."
He intentionally made it sound severe to frighten his two sons.
Hearing this, the twins were indeed frightened.
"Dad, we would never tell anyone, not even if it kills us." stars said, miming a zipping motion over his mouth.
"Good that you understand."

When Gu Lili arrived at Yunxiao Palace, most of the people were already present.
It was then that she heard the Heavenly King say, "It was my father who harmed your father, but he has received his deserved punishment, so let’s consider this matter settled."
Such a nonchalant closure to the event.
That was his explanation.
"Elder brother, what about my mother? She was involved too."
The Heavenly King was just waiting for her to say this, and unbeknownst to him, Gu Lili was well aware he was waiting for her to say it.
"This was originally a domestic affair of the Jun Family. This matter should not be publicized, but internally, we must handle it. Before your father died, your mother was already with my father, which is truly morally corrupt. The letter clearly shows her role in the entire plot against your father. Since my father is dead, I proclaim that from this moment, your mother no longer deserves to assume the position of my mother. Her title is revoked, and she is sentenced to kneel and apologize at your father’s grave."
The meaning was clear. From now on, Dai Ji would have no connection with the Heavenly King’s family.
Naturally, she, along with Jun Yu and the Heavenly King’s family, would have no further connection. Originally, they had no familial ties; if not for Dai Ji marrying Jun Xian’an, the Gu Lili siblings would have no relation to the Heavenly King’s family.
Gu Lili responded swiftly, immediately changing her tone, "I humbly request the Heavenly King’s approval to sever ties with her along with my brother, Jun Yu."
The Heavenly King was naturally willing to make such a concession, "Granted."
"Heavenly King, the Demon King requests an audience."
"Let him in."
Gu Lili naturally took her leave.
Just as she exited Yunxiao Palace, Jun Xiangyi caught up with her, "Aunt..."
