Ultimate Series, Past Lives Revealed

121: Good Song RemarriesAt this very moment, Zhong Xinshang remained completely unaware that his plan had already been exposed.

After several days of arduous travel, he, along with Fang Lie and Perfection, were utterly exhausted, both physically and mentally, as if all their strength had been drained away.

Throughout this long journey, they had pressed on without stopping, scarcely allowing themselves a moment’s rest.

Now, they could go no further and desperately needed to find a safe place to settle down, to allow their weary bodies and minds a brief respite.

However, the relentless travel of the past days had left Zhong Xinshang with no time to spare for other matters, especially concerning Hao Ge.

He wondered to himself: Had his plan been discovered? If it truly had been exposed, what consequences awaited him? Would he be captured and taken back?

Meanwhile, back at the Generals Mansion, several days had passed since Dongfang Longji’s ”funeral.”

Yet, Hao Ge remained mired in despondency, unable to extricate herself.

She simply could not understand why Dongfang Longji would rather feign death and leave her than bow his head and yield.

The more Hao Ge thought about it, the angrier she became, her resentment churning like a tide. ”Dongfang Longji, let’s just see how well you fare without me!” she said through gritted teeth.

In this Female-Dominant Nation, without identification papers, Dongfang Longji and his companions could not get very far.

Moreover, the name Dongfang Longji was no longer usable, for he was now a ”dead man.”

Seeing Hao Ge in such distress, the Butler felt a pang of sorrow. He gently advised, ”My Lady, please don’t grieve for such an ungrateful man. He didn’t know how to appreciate his good fortune and brought trouble upon himself. He truly isn’t worth your sorrow.”

A cold smile touched Hao Ge’s lips. ”Indeed, why should I fixate on him alone? Tomorrow, keep an eye out for me. See which families have suitable young men. If he doesn’t know how to cherish me, naturally, there will be others who will.”

The Butler standing nearby hurriedly replied, ”Yes, my Lady. I will do my utmost to find you a suitable husband.”

Just as the Primary Husband of General Hao Ge had passed away, news quickly spread within the Generals Mansion of her intention to take a new Primary Husband. This news was like a boulder dropped into a still lake, instantly stirring up waves.

Those official families with eligible young men, upon hearing this news, were like cats catching the scent of fish. They eagerly sent their calling cards, hoping to forge a marriage alliance with the Generals Mansion.

Yet, amidst this clamor, the Dongfang Prime Minister’s Residence remained exceptionally quiet. Dongfang Longji’s Father, upon hearing the news that General Hao Ge intended to take a new Primary Husband, was as if struck by lightning, frozen in shock.

His eyes widened with rage, veins bulging on his forehead, he roared, ”My son’s body is not yet cold, and she is already so eager to take a new husband!”

With that, he sprang to his feet, making as if to go to the Generals Mansion to demand an explanation.

However, his actions were stopped by the Prime Minister Dongfang beside him. Frowning, the Prime Minister said gravely, ”Enough. You’re just asking for humiliation. What’s the point? Better to stay quiet.”

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Longji’s Father trembled with fury. Pointing at the Prime Minister Dongfang, he roared indignantly, ”Wife-Lord, how can you be so cold-hearted!”

The Prime Minister Dongfang snorted coldly but still did not tell him about what his precious son had done. ”I’m leaving!”

Cai Yunhan (Gold Time Dimension): This woman, really!

Arthur Wang (Gold Time Dimension): Dongfang Longji was too impulsive!

Cao Cao (Silver Time Dimension): Right! Just three weak men, without identification papers, and all that... to fake their deaths and leave like that was far too impulsive!

Void Gazer (Iron Time Dimension): His temper is too great. I think he’s just been spoiled!

Evil Girl Group (Copper Time Dimension): I don’t think Dongfang Longji was wrong. What he wanted was One Partner for Life!

Illusion Time-Space: But in that feudal Dynasty, it’s unrealistic!

Wood Time-Space: One can only say he was born in the wrong era!

Hao Jiaqi (Gold Time Dimension): Ultimately, it boils down to a lack of strength and resources. If he had the capital and the power, he could act with confidence no matter what he did!
