Chapter 696: Love Takes Root (141)
"Sit down." Long Yubei held her shoulders, "From now on, pretend you never had this daughter; let’s both live in peace."
"Yu Bei, but she’s my daughter, how can I just pretend she doesn’t exist?"
"I know you feel guilty, but Yuesheng obviously doesn’t intend to have anything to do with you anymore, can’t you see that? Moreover, if you keep this up, my third brother will truly take your life, and I’m not joking." Long Yubei stopped hiding the truth from him, "Actually, that time you and Bai Sha went to the hospital to see me and Lili, when you encountered my third brother and the tenth, I lied to you then; they’re not my fellow disciples."
"What are they?"
"They are my half-brothers from the same father." Long Yubei added another sentence, "But they are not children of the Long Family."
"What you’re saying...I can’t quite understand it. Aren’t they your half-brothers from the same father? How are they not children of the Long Family?"
"This identity, the body of Long Yubei, isn’t my original self. You might understand better now; I was reincarnated into Long Yubei. But before I became Long Yubei, I had another identity, and that is the brother of my third brother and the others; we are all sons of the Netherworld King from the underworld."
Mo Lingqi looked at him in disbelief, "What?"
"My third brother has lived for one hundred and thirty thousand years, his Magic Power Cultivation is very high. It would be easy for him to kill you and even your entire extended family without leaving a trace, so let’s not speak of this matter again, put a full stop to it, let’s not bring it up anymore." Long Yubei patted his back, "I’m not kidding with you, if I hadn’t stopped it just now, you would have already lost your life here."
Mo Lingqi was overwhelmingly shocked, "Are you saying you are the son of the King of Hell?"
"Yes."
"How am I supposed to..."
"I can prove it to you right now." Long Yubei sat back opposite him then, in his shocked state, separated his true self from that body.
Seeing another him, Mo Lingqi was completely overwhelmed.
"Do you believe it now?" Long Yubei returned to his body, "You just need to be aware of this, don’t talk about it randomly, and live a good life with Princess Bai Sha."
"How can there be such an absurd thing..." Mo Lingqi could hardly believe it, "It’s too inconceivable."
"The world is like this. What you don’t know doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist, so... Ling Qi... I don’t even know what to say now."

Long Fengxi skipped work to find Shen Congmo; somehow, she just didn’t want to stay at the office, and arrived at the building where Shen Congmo was located at four fifty.
The wind had picked up outside; she wore a hat and mask and got out of the car,
stuffing her hands into the pockets of her down jacket and quickening her pace as she ran into the building.
She made her way unimpeded to the outside of Shen Congmo’s office, where she then slowed down.
Gently, she grasped the doorknob and pushed open the door.
To her surprise, there was no one inside.
She asked the nearby secretary, "Mr. Shen isn’t in?"
"He is, maybe he’s in the inner resting room."
Only then did Long Fengxi enter and close the door behind her, heading toward the resting room.
Shen Congmo was taking a shower.
She suddenly pushed open the door of the bathroom, and he was taken aback.
Seeing it was her, he then smiled, "I thought it was some rogue daring to barge in uninvited."
"It’s this rogue, right here." Long Fengxi leaned against the door, "Why are you showering here at the office?"
"I went to the operating room." He grinned wickedly, "Wife, want to join me for a shower?"
