Gu Shengyin felt as though an invisible force had entered her body, invigorating her senses, and she couldnât help but squint her eyes in comfort.
She took a step forward and bowed deeply to the beautiful woman in front of her, seemingly carved of ice and snow: "Leng Shi, thank you, Mother."
The beauty nodded coolly and then gestured to Nicholas, her figure flashing once more before vanishing completely.
The crowd stood there, stupefied: "..."
After a long while, Qin Chingching finally rubbed her face vigorously, not caring about smudging the makeup she had so meticulously applied.
She murmured in a daze: "I think I just had a hallucination."
After she spoke, Zhang Chao immediately added: "It seems I had a hallucination too."
Everyone else chimed in simultaneously: "It seems we all had a hallucination!"
Five pairs of eyes suddenly fixed intently on Gu Shengyin, their burning gaze seemed as if it would pierce through her.
Gu Shengyin: "..."
She chuckled and said: "None of you had hallucinations."
In truth, everyone already knew, that such a palpable feeling couldnât possibly be a hallucination.
Xue Juan gingerly asked: "So...that person just now..."
Nicholas spoke up: "That was my mother, the Ice Snow Goddess Daphne Selina, who governs the cold and ice of this continent."
The crowd: "..."
To have lived so many years and only now realizing how little they understood about the world!
Ice Snow Goddess?
Goddess!
So, Felton, child of the Ice Snow Goddess, is a true Child of God?
Qin Chingching felt as though she had discovered an earth-shattering secret.
"Suddenly, I find this world quite fantastical, and it seems Iâve learned something incredible. I think I might need to wash my face with cold water to really calm down..." She spoke, becoming somewhat incoherent.
It wasnât just her; in fact, the othersâ reactions werenât much better.
They had just seen a real goddess!
Zhang Chao looked at Nicholas with blazing eyes.
He asked cautiously: "Mr. Felton, may I take a photograph of you?"
He tightened his grip on the camera in his hands.
Oh my, this was the descendant of a deity; he felt that taking a photo could bring him good fortune!
Nicholas didnât refuse.
Qin Chingching was perhaps the boldest of the group, and although she was quite nervous facing Nicholas, she bravely requested to take a group photo.
A request from his wifeâs friend was a small matter, and Nicholas certainly wouldnât refuse.
Everyone else eagerly joined in for a group photo with Nicholas.
Qin Chingching held the photograph, smiling smugly: "A group photo with a Child of God, besides us, who else in the world could do this?"
...
After a day of excitement, that night, the group did not return home but stayed at the castle.
This, however, had little impact on Gu Shengyin and Nicholas.
Whenever Nicholas wished it, anything others shouldnât hear would naturally be inaudible.
The two spent a romantic and wonderful wedding night together.
The five friends bid farewell sensibly the next day, leaving time and space for the newly wedded couple, Gu Shengyin and Nicholas.
Nicholas hugged Gu Shengyinâs waist, gazing at the cars disappearing from view.
"Finally, itâs just the two of us left," he murmured.
Gu Shengyin couldnât help but laugh upon hearing this.
No matter how proud and aloof this man presented himself to outsiders, he was always affectionate and clingy in front of her.
She couldnât resist taking his hand: "From now on, we have endless time together."
"Just the two of us."
"Just you and me."
