"You can think it over carefully and tell your answer when you’re ready."
After he left, Jun Li lay on his bed, unable to feel the slightest bit sleepy.
She had slept in this bed many tis before, but now as she lay down, mories of the past surged forth like a wellspring.
Living to this age has been an incredibly long process.
The Heavenly King had more than once proposed that she and Jun Yu engage in marital alliances with other realms, but they, brother and sister, had rejected them all.
The only request she had ever made was just so.
On the matter of marriage, to let her and her brother make their own decisions.
The Heavenly King did agree.
So whether or not she married was entirely up to her.
Before eting him, Jun Li had never thought about what kind of man she wanted. After eting him, all she felt was that soone like him was good enough.
His words tonight were sothing she had never even dared to contemplate before.
What does it an to start being together and then never stop?
Does it an to be together for all eternity?
Does he want to maintain this kind of relationship with her forever?
When a beloved man says such things to you, how many won wouldn’t be moved?
But Jun Li had lived for so many years, so she was very clear that such a decision was of unparalleled significance to her.
It ant that if she agreed, she would have to sincerely accept everything about him.
Including his children, his past, and his future.
She asked herself if she was willing to accept it.
The answer was yes.
She asked herself again, if she disagreed, would she feel regret?
The answer was also yes.
Since that was the case, with her heart having found the answer, there was no need to think any further.
Making a serious and Formal decision that was very important to her life, once Jun Li had made up her mind, she would not regret it.
Early the next day upon leaving the Netherworld, Jun Li went ho to wash up and change her clothes, thinking about going to see Long Chan later. She deliberately made herself up well before going downstairs.
Descending from the staircase, she imdiately saw Jun Yu and Jun Xiangyi zoning out on the sofa.
"What are you two doing sitting there like fools?"
"Sister!"
"Auntie!"
The two of them exclaid in unison, "Where did you go?"
"I went out for a stroll last night and found a hotel to stay in. What’s wrong?"
"We thought sothing might have happened to you."
"What could have happened to ? Who could possibly harm ?" Jun Li sat down. "There’s no need for such alarm."
"Sister, I saw Hong Ying half an hour ago in Qin Garden; she seed to be looking for Long Chan."
Jun Li asked, "Did she see you?"
"No."
"Auntie, I’ve made a major decision," Jun Xiangyi said gravely.
"What kind of major decision?"
"Sis, she’s gone insane. Just ignore her."
"I’m not insane." Jun Xiangyi stated openly, "I want to change my na."
Jun Li was puzzled, "Why would you change your na all of a sudden?"
"It’s because she’s been swayed by others. Imagine that, a Goddess actually believing the words of a human. This morning, she went out and stumbled upon a fortune teller’s stall. She thought it was fun and let him read her fortune. The fortune teller said her na was no good, and that changing it would bring her happiness and good fortune."
"I think it makes sense," Jun Xiangyi said. "Auntie, his predictions were really accurate. He said I was divorced, and also talked about how my relationship with my husband was bad before we split. He said a bunch of things that were all spot on."
"Did this fortune teller take money?"
"100 yuan."
"If his predictions are so accurate, then he should first predict for himself how to beco the country’s richest person overnight, rather than earning this little money from telling fortunes. Nine and a half out of ten fortune tellers are good at reading people, and the half relies on Ghost Spirits and the like. You’re a Goddess and can’t predict your own life path, yet a human can do it? Can’t you use your brain a little when thinking about these things in the future? I really don’t know whether to call you naive or just plain foolish."
