“I’ll give you the title of Mrs. Gu, but don’t even think about anything else.” What the hell? He’s my man—why can’t I kiss him, hug him, and lift him up? After being reborn, she humiliated her enemies and climbed her way up to the most powerful man in Li City. That trashy sister wants to rise to fame? She can dream! Watch her use her power to crush her in a heartbeat. That sleazy guy trying to pull strings through family connections? Hmph! No way—not a chance. After the wedding, her husband remained aloof and dignified, refusing to give in. Watch as she coaxes him with every trick in the book. Gu Mochen has nowhere to retreat. Since his wife is taking the initiative, he’ll reluctantly accept everything she offers—if he doesn’t give himself to her now, wouldn’t that be a terrible injustice to her?
Chapter 471: Canceling the Wedding—No Matter the Reason, It’s Out of the Question [Third Update] These past few days, whether on TV, the internet, or the front pages of major newspapers, the wedding of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess of L Kingdom has been all over the news. Chen Qi held up the newspaper to Gu Sheng as if showing off a treasure, even turning on the TV to let her watch the live broadcast, all the while speaking with an envious look on her face. “Miss Gu, look—I really think this woman must have saved the entire universe in a past life to deserve someone as wonderful as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.” “This is something no amount of envy could ever make a girl like this. Do you know who His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is? He used to be the CEO of Mo Shi Group, and I think he’s actually good friends with our boss.” “……” Chen Qi laid all the news reports out in front of Gu Sheng. Gu Sheng stared at the headlines in the newspapers, almost in disbelief. Even the TV news was reporting on their wedding date every day. “When did this happen?” Gu Sheng asked. “It happened just a couple of days ago. The coverage is absolutely everywhere. Let me show you, Miss Gu.” With that, Chen Qi pulled out her phone and scrolled through the photos on the forum. Gu Sheng could see it clearly: the images showed digital billboards in major cities, all displaying her and Gu Mochen’s wedding photos. Below the wedding photos was the date of their wedding. “Miss Gu, why do I feel like this bride looks a bit like you?” Chen Qi asked curiously. “That’s the eldest daughter of the Nanfeng family—a princess, a princess consort. How could she possibly look like me?” Gu Sheng said softly, denying each of these claims one by one. “You’re right. But you’re very happy too, Miss Gu. Your husband treats you so well.” Gu Sheng didn’t even hear what Chen Qi was saying. Gu Sheng was so stunned by these reports that she was completely speechless. Why would Gu Mochen do this? Announcing their wedding to the whole world—why didn’t he cancel it? She had already left and had no intention of going back. A wedding without a bride—didn’t he realize how much this would affect him once he became king? Gu Sheng immediately called Xiao Yu, who was surprised to receive her call. “Sheng, where have you been? Don’t you know your wedding to His Highness is just around the corner? You need to come back right away,” Xiao Yu said anxiously. Although Xiao Yu had left the Phoenix Moon Palace, she still kept a close eye on Gu Sheng’s movements. For as long as Gu Sheng had not truly ascended the throne, she would not have complete freedom. Yet her concern for Gu Sheng had become a habit, one that came from the heart. “Yu, you know I’ve lost my sight. How can I possibly claim this throne? How can I convince the millions of people in this country that the wedding cannot take place? Please, help me persuade him to call it off—no matter what the reason.” It took every ounce of courage Gu Sheng possessed to utter those words about canceling the wedding. God only knows how much she had been looking forward to this wedding, for only after the ceremony would she become Gu Mochen’s rightful wife. She would be able to claim him openly and declare to everyone that Gu Mochen belonged to her. But none of that was possible anymore. “A-Sheng, you’re being so selfish. You’re only thinking of yourself. Have you considered His Highness? He’s your husband, the father of your child. Why won’t you give him the right to choose?” Xiao Yu was somewhat disappointed by Gu Sheng’s self-pity.
