Mr. CEO Wants to Renew Our Contract-Chapter 893: Together With You (38)

After sitting for more than half an hour, when she stood up to go down, she unexpectedly noticed a figure standing on the balcony of the distant bedroom—it was Xu Mohan.

This position was truly mysteriously peculiar, just happened to be visible.

They were somewhat far apart, but he saw her.

Jun Xiangyi glanced at him, then returned to the bedroom.

A sleepless night.

The next morning when Gu Lili arrived, her first sentence was, "Aunt, I’m returning to the Heavenly World."

"Hmm? No longer staying in the mortal world?"

"No, I’m going into seclusion to cultivate, shutting out all external affairs to focus solely on practice." She said, carrying her luggage, "I’ve waited until now just to tell you this. Where did you go last night?"

"Had some things to attend to, didn’t come back." Gu Lili noticed her dark circles under the eyes, "You didn’t sleep last night?"

"Couldn’t sleep."

"Something troubling you?"

She denied it, "No, just feeling powerless to resist fate, it always seems this way, it’s always been this way. Next, I can only wait for my father to arrange an alliance marriage for me. With my reputation being so bad, I wonder what kind of person he will arrange. My father will surely find someone to pair me with, after all, being a Goddess, my only worth is to use a marriage alliance to stabilize peace between the realms."

Gu Lili walked up to her, reached out to embrace her, "Xiangyi, don’t overthink it, just live well in the present. Actually, I’m planning to go into seclusion too, won’t see anyone, to really calm my mind for a while."

Jun Xiangyi hugged her tightly, "Aren’t you afraid Uncle will be tied down by the twins’ birth mother?"

"What’s yours will be yours, what’s not can’t be forced, just see it lightly."

They separated, Jun Xiangyi waved as she carried her suitcase, "Then I’m off."

"Okay."

With her gone, Gu Lili wouldn’t need to come back every day, using the pretense of seclusion to hide her true self, living well in the mortal world under Gu Lili’s name and accompanying the children, that’s what she currently wants to do.

Gu Lili stayed at the company until she came back at night.

Upon entering the house, she found it quite lively.

Su Changzhi, Shan Langyuan, Xu Mohan, and Nan Yuesheng were all there.

The arranged marriage for the Eighth Prince Su XinXing with the Immortal Realm’s fairy at the Six Realms meeting was held today. Whether in Gu Lili’s capacity or Jun Li’s identity, she did not attend.

Because it was impossible to go.

For Gu Lili, entering the Netherworld as she did before was no longer feasible, she could only go as Jun Li.

She and Long Yubei were just engaged, not yet married, so it didn’t matter not to go.

"Seventh Sister-in-law, you’re back?" Shan Langyuan greeted the same way as before.

"When did you all return?"

"Not long ago, Seventh Brother had a bit too much to drink." Shan Langyuan gestured to Long Yubei dominating a couch; Gu Lili looked over, only to see him lying there, an arm draped over his forehead.

She approached, bending down to remove his arm, "Did you drink hangover soup?"

"I did." Long Yubei reached out to hug her completely, Gu Lili sprawled over him, "Let go, there are so many people here."

"What does it matter how many people? I’m openly embracing my woman."

The others were bewildered except for Su Changzhi.

Because they couldn’t figure out whether Long Yubei now favored Gu Lili or Jun Li.

Gu Lili pried open Long Yubei’s hand and sat in the spot beside his legs, naturally, his two legs rested on Gu Lili’s lap.
