1790 The Invitation List
Previously, Chu Ning had been calm in the face of so many scrutinizing and questioning gazes. Facing Shangguan You now, he suddenly became nervous.
He was nervous mainly because the other party’s identity was too special—he was Yue’er’s Father Emperor!
After knowing Yue’er’s true identity, he had thought about this. Now that they met, he realized that it was even more awkward than he had expected.
Chu Ning didn’t know what identity he should use to face Shangguan You, but when Shangguan You heard this, he suddenly took half a step back and bowed deeply to Chu Ning.
Chu Ning was shocked and hurriedly said, “No!”
Shangguan You’s status is higher than mine, and he is Yue’er’s real father. I really don’t dare to accept this bow.
However, Shangguan You was very insistent. After bowing completely, he stood up and said sincerely, “Chu Ning, thank you for taking care of Yue’er previously.”
He knew that many things had happened when Yue’er was in Country Yao Chen. If not for Chu Ning’s protection, Yue’er would probably have suffered countless hardships.
When he was lying unconscious in the Tianling Imperial Palace, it was Chu Ning who gave Yue’er a home. He was endlessly grateful to Chu Ning.
When Chu Ning heard these words, his emotions surged. I didn’t expect Shangguan You to think so. I thought…
“Chu Ning, it’s Yue’er’s blessing to have a father like you,” Shangguan You said sincerely.
Chu Ning was shocked and suddenly looked up at Shangguan You. What he meant is—
Upon seeing Chu Ning’s expression, something seemed to surge in Chu Liuyue’s heart and almost drowned her. She held Chu Ning’s hand and said, “Father, I’ve already told Father Emperor that no matter who I am, I’ll still be your daughter.”
She took over the real Chu Liuyue’s body and even obtained the fatherly love that should’ve belonged to that girl. Of course, she was Chu Ning’s daughter.
It didn’t matter if she was Chu Liuyue or Shangguan Yue. The porridge that he had cooked for her, the endless worry for her, the courage and determination to protect her time and time again… These were enough.
She was her Father Emperor’s daughter and her Father’s Yue’er.
Chu Ning’s heart seemed to be choked by something.
He looked at her and then at Shangguan You. Their expressions were so sincere that he almost thought he was in a dream.
I had thought that I would lose Yue’er. Unexpectedly, in the end—
“Father, don’t you want Yue’er anymore?” Chu Liuyue blinked and asked.
“How could that be!?” Chu Ning quickly denied it. “As long as you want to, Father will always be by your side!”
After saying this, the burden in Chu Ning’s chest suddenly dissipated. In an instant, it was as if his entire body was smooth and comfortable.
This is how it should be! No matter what, I will still dote on Yue’er as much as ever in the future!
Seeing that Chu Ning was really relieved, Chu Liuyue felt much more at ease.
It was her luck and fortune to be able to obtain two sets of fatherly love.
…
Rong Xiu watched from the side, and a smile appeared on his handsome face. If she is happy, so am I. Despite the twists and turns, everything is finally complete now.
He could tell that she was genuinely happy.
After they exchanged a few more pleasantries, Rong Xiu said, “Now that the dust has settled and all the elders are here, let’s start preparing for the wedding!”
The elders had long guessed his plan, so when they heard this, they weren’t too surprised and agreed.
In fact, Rong Xiu had already sent people to prepare for this a long time ago. Therefore, even if the notice was rather sudden, the Sky-Cloud Empire could still arrange everything in an extremely short period of time.
Rong Xiu gave them a few more instructions, almost in detail.
36 Respected Elder Ming asked, “Your Highness, the guests you want to invite to the wedding…”
Rong Xiu handed over a list. “The list of invitees is here. Just follow this and invite them accordingly. The invitation cards are with Yan Qing; get him to send them later.”
The corners of 36 Respected Elder Ming’s mouth twitched imperceptibly.
Logically speaking, the invitation list is discussed and decided by the elders of the clan, but His Highness had actually directly written it himself. He is really unwilling to wait any longer… 36 Respected Elder Ming thought as he opened the list.
After taking a few glances, his eyes suddenly widened, and he looked at Rong Xiu in shock. “Your Highness, this—”
Everyone looked over curiously. What is so special about the list that can make the usually calm 36 Respected Elder Ming react so violently?
Sensing those gazes, 36 Respected Elder Ming swallowed and tried to ask tactfully, “Your Highness, isn’t this… a little too many guests?”
Is His Highness really not messing with this list? It’s fine if it is the clans and sects that are on good terms with the Sky-Cloud Empire, but there are also some who don’t have a good relationship with us and have even caused trouble with us!
His Highness plans to invite all the important figures in the entire God Residence Realm.
Rong Xiu raised his sharp brows slightly. “Too much? I don’t think so. Weddings should be lively, right?”
36 Respected Elder Ming was speechless. What His Highness said… There doesn’t seem to be anything wrong with that, but the key is that some people on this list might not come. If they do, it might be even more troublesome—
As if reading his mind, Rong Xiu’s thin lips curled up, and he said lightly, “I’ll only hold one wedding in my life. I naturally have to organize it well and announce it to the world.”
He wanted everyone in the God Residence Realm to know—Yue’er was his!
