Chapter 447: Chapter 447
The room fell silent.
"Are you all stunned?"
"I’ve seen Su Changzhi before, and he didn’t look ." Antonio frowned, "Did he get plastic surgery?"
Gu Xichen reminded, "Everyone said that wasn’t his real face."
"That’s right." Su Changzhi generously admitted, "I am the Ninth Prince of the underworld, Su Changzhi. The face you saw before was just borrowed from someone else’s body. This is my original form. Since you are friends with Lili and therefore my friends too, we will be seeing each other often in the future. I don’t mind revealing my true self..."
Antonio was completely dumbfounded, "You say you... who are you?"
"I am the Ninth Prince of the underworld, the son of the Netherworld King. If you didn’t hear me clearly, I’ll say it again."
Antonio immediately conceded, "Heard loud and clear!"
"You don’t need to be formal. In the mortal world, he’s my husband. You can just treat him like a normal person." Gu Lili and Su Changzhi almost simultaneously sat down, "I don’t really have many friends anyway, so there’s no need for another wedding ceremony. Having a meal with everyone here counts as making the announcement."
Although she said that, the others still seemed a bit apprehensive and scared.
"That Su... Su Changzhi, isn’t the underworld full of malevolent spirits wandering around in the dark?" Antonio asked.
"Hasn’t Lili told you? She’s been there many times." Su Changzhi replied leisurely, "The underworld is similar to another dimension’s mortal world; there’s not much difference."
"Aren’t spirits afraid of sunlight?"
"The underworld is divided into many levels. The higher you go, the more are the Spiritual Practitioners who aren’t afraid of sunlight. I live on the topmost level."
"Learn something new every day," Antonio swallowed hard, "In my reckless youth, I always thought I was the coolest one. But in reality, once you go out into the world, you see brilliant people everywhere, and I’m just a speck of dust."
Gu Lili laughed, "Alright, you are the heir to the Anton Family, envied by so many."
"Lili, I wish you a happy marriage. I won’t get you in this lifetime." Antonio threw back his drink, "Well, if we can’t be a married couple or lovers, we’re still business partners and good friends."
"Neo, I believe there’s a nice girl out there waiting to meet you."
"I was thinking, if I couldn’t have you, then I’d wait for your daughter to grow up and then pursue her. Who knew you’d end up carrying twin boys, Lili? Are you doing this on purpose? Tell me, are you going to try for a daughter next, or is that it?" New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on N0v3l.Fiɾe.net
"Of course, I’ll try for a daughter," said Gu Lili with a smile, "But who can guarantee the next child will be a girl? And even if it is a girl, I wouldn’t let her marry you. When my daughter is twenty, you’ll be over forty. When she’s thirty, you’ll be an old man. The age gap is just too big."
Antonio nearly spat out his drink, "A May-December romance won’t do? Maybe my type will grow on her as she gets older."
"It’s unlikely," Gu Lili added another blow, "Usually when women look for partners twenty-some years their senior, it’s because they lack fatherly love. My daughter won’t have that issue, so you might as well give up for good."
"Lili, I hate you!" Antonio slammed the table, "Why must you be so heartless to me? How about this, Su Changzhi, you be the main wife and I’ll be the concubine. You spend time with Lili on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, I’ll take Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, and Lili can rest on Sundays."
