Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“For example, this Old Master Li… is destined to have no children.”
Her voice wasn’t loud, so the others around them couldn’t hear her. It just so happened that Old Master Li and the other two could hear her clearly.
Old Master Li, who was hugging his concubine, had a drastic change in expression. He turned around and glared at Gu Yanfei. His eyes were spitting fire as he said angrily, “Hey, what did you just say?! ‘
Was she cursing his concubine for not being able to give birth to a son, or was she saying that he had been cuckolded?!
Old Master Li’s face was ashen, and dark clouds covered it. He was furious.
He took a big step forward and raised his hand to swing it at Gu Yanfei’s face…
However, Gu Yanfei’s whip was faster than his. The long whip flew out like a spirit snake and wrapped tightly around Old Master Li’s wrist as if it had a consciousness.
“Let go of me…” Master Li tried to break free from the whip on his wrist in exasperation.
“Alright!” Gu Yanfei retracted her whip smoothly. She casually pulled the whip, and with clever force, she spun the man on the spot. He staggered and fell to the ground.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye, and Madam Sun and her concubine, Wu Niang, were completely unable to react.
The other people on the street also watched this scene in a daze, dumbfounded.
Only An Le was overjoyed and happily clapped her hands.
Gu Yanfei put away her whip and looked at Madam Sun with a smile. She said seriously, “Divorce him.”
“After you divorce him, I guarantee that your next marriage will be even better.
You’ll have a son and a daughter and a smooth marriage.”
Madam Sun raised her head and looked at Gu Yanfei in a daze. She was a little dumbfounded and even forgot to hide the shocking palm print on her face.
Old Master Li, who was on the ground, was covered in dust. He got up from the ground in a sorry state and pointed at Gu Yanfei angrily. “How dare you hit me?!”
“Haven’t you heard that it’s better to destroy a temple than a marriage?”
“I’m going to sue you…”
“Ah!” An excited female voice interrupted the furious Old Master Li. “Goddess, it’s the Goddess!”
The old woman at the side rushed in front of Gu Yanfei like a gust of wind. She looked at her piously, and her eyes seemed to be glowing.
Old Master Li was at a loss. He frowned deeply, and the veins on his forehead twitched.
The old woman pointed at Gu Yanfei and tugged at Madam Sun’s sleeve excitedly. “Sister, she is a Goddess. She’s the Goddess who displayed her divine power at the entrance of the palace a few days ago!’
“This Goddess has remarkable abilities. She’s the Nine Heavenly Maiden, who has descended to the mortal world and has the ability to summon the wind and rain. Whatever she says must be right!”
The old woman’s voice became more and more excited, almost breaking her voice.
” ” Madam Sun blinked, then blinked again as she slowly recalled.
On the ninth day of the Lunar New Year, because she had heard that the drum had been beaten, she had also gone to Chengtian Gate to watch the commotion. However, she had been standing far away and couldn’t see the face of the “Goddess” clearly.
After hearing this old woman’s words, Madam Sun finally connected this young girl to the “Goddess” at Chengtian Gate.
‘Yes, it’s indeed her,” Madam Sun muttered foolishly, her eyes burning.
The Goddess just said that she wanted her to divorce?
She said that she would have a son and a daughter in the future and be in a happy marriage?!
Old Master Li, whose face was covered in dust, widened his eyes. He was so terrified that his face turned pale. The words of the Goddess echoed in his mind. She said that he would have no children?
“Madam Sun, what are you waiting for? Let’s go home!” Old Master Li shouted arrogantly. The concubine called Wu Niang beside him had a bewildered expression.
“Divorce!” Madam Sun looked into Old Master Li’s eyes and said firmly, “l want to divorce you!”
The Goddess was right!
She had had enough of this useless life!
“I see the Goddess!”
There were already some people gathered around the restaurant. When they heard the clamor of people shouting “Divorce” and “Goddess”, even more people gathered around and shot burning gazes at Gu Yan.
Seeing that the situation wasn’t good, Gu Yanfei hurriedly tugged at Chu Yi’s sleeve and said to him, “Let’s go!’
Chu Yi nodded with a stifled laugh. “Let’s go!”
Before the people around them could react, the two of them pushed the wheelchair and left.
Chu Yi made a gesture in a certain direction without batting an eyelid. Xiao Shi, Si Hai, and the others behind him entered the messy crowd and stopped some passers-by who were chasing them.
When they passed by a dark and narrow alley, a middle-aged man in green with a pale face and a beard poked his head out of the alley and waved at Gu Yanfei and Chu Yi.
Gu Yanfei and the other two quickly walked into the alley. An Le, who was in the wheelchair, covered his mouth and patiently waited for the surrounding noise to gradually fade away.
“Pfft.”
The three of them looked at each other and smiled.
Gu Yanfei and An Le were both laughing uncontrollably. An Le’s sparkling eyes looked up to see another person in the alley. “Father, why are you here?”
The Emperor, who was wearing a black cloak embroidered with colorful clouds and silver rat skin, walked over from the depths of the alley. There was a gentle smile on his thin face.
The Emperor slowly walked towards An Le and smiled, “Can’t I come and see the lanterns?”
Zhao Rang, who was dressed in an ordinary green robe, pursed his lips and held back his laughter.
Only he knew that the Emperor had no intention of leaving the palace incognito. However, after the Eldest Prince and the Eldest Princess set off, the more the Emperor thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. Hence, he came to the Lantern Festival at the last minute.
“Of course!” An Le happily handed a jar ofwine to the Emperor. “Father, this is the ‘Sword Orchid Spring’ that we won by guessing lantern riddles. ‘
After receiving the wine from his daughter, the Emperor smiled until his eyes narrowed. He repeatedly praised his precious daughter for being filial.
The Emperor passed the wine jar to Zhao Rang and suggested nonchalantly, “The fireworks should be starting soon at the Dazhao Temple. Let’s go over quickly.”
“There are too many of us, and we’re too eye-catching. An Le, can you follow Father?”
An Le was a good child. When the Emperor asked her, her first reaction was to nod obediently.
As for Chu Yi and Gu Yanfei, they didn’t even have the chance to speak. The Emperor and Zhao Rang had already pushed the wheelchair away and said,
“The two of you hide for a while more..”
