Chapter 195: Only Have One Wife
Substitute Bride Phoenix, The Tyrant's Pampered Demon Empress
âWell anyways, I want to marry Heize! Grandfather, help me talk to Heize. Iâm willing to be a concubine,â Dieâer replied with a pout.
The medicine king shook his head helplessly. âAlright, Iâll help you ask. However, even if Heize agrees to it, your parents may not. There are so many obstacles.â
âFather and Mother once said that when I grow up, I can decide who I want to marry,â Dieâer said with a smile.
The medicine king couldnât reject his beloved granddaughterâs request.
After dinner, the medicine king called Han Moze to his room.
âAh Heize, how many wives do you plan to have in this lifetime?â He asked with a warm smile.
Han Moze smiled, so the medicine king called him to act as a matchmaker. Without hesitation, he rejected his proposal. âGrandfather Medicine King, I am perfectly content with Shuangâer and will not marry another.â
The medicine king furrowed his brows and sighed. âMy granddaughter says she likes you and now that sheâs reached a suitable age for marriage, I beg you marry Dieâer. I can see that you are an honorable and loyal man, so youâll definitely treat Dieâer well.â
Han Mozeâs face instantly dimmed. He was begging him? The medicine king had saved him, so in principle, he should accept his request. However, he simply had no desire to marry her, so he gritted his teeth and rejected the proposal. âSir, I cannot accept your good will. Please forgive me for my rudeness.â
The medicine king was sunned but forced a smile. âSince you donât want to marry, then forget it. Iâm so old now, I can see things with an open mind and I understand the simple concept of poor consequences of forced love. Youâd better head back. Iâll try to talk to Su Die and put an end to the matter.â
Han Moze put on a slight smile and nodded. âThank you Grandfather Medicine King for being so understanding,â he said respectfully.
...
Soon after Han Moze left, Su Die headed for the medicine kingâs room and asked in anticipation, âGrandfather, did Heize agree to marry me?â
The medicine grabbed his beard and let out a sigh. âHeize isnât willing to marry you. Itâs better if you give up,â he said.
Su Die was stunned, as she stumbled two steps back with red eyes.
âN-no... Brother Heize...â she cried with a trembling voice. Then, her eyes slightly widened and asked, âGrandfather, didnât you save him? To pay you back, he should agree to it.â
The medicine king shook his head again and sighed. âDieâer, give it up. You and Heize will never happen. Heize clearly told me that he would only marry one person in his lifetime.â
âN-no...â Su Die ran out, crying.
The medicine king shut his eyes and took a deep breath before heading back into the room.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âDieâer, I hope you can get over it soon.â
Su Die ran to her own room, lay on her bed, and cried non-stop. âBrother Heize, why are you unwilling to marry me?â
She cried into the middle of the night. Dieâer made a decision. She absolutely had to marry Heize! Since she liked her, then she had to bravely go after him.
Outside of Su Dieâs room, Feng Yuebai quietly leaned against the wall with tears down his face.
âJunior Sister, how great would it be if you felt like this for me?â
When Feng Yuebai heard Su Dieâs sobs come to a stop, he headed back in despair.
Liu Rushuang and Han Moze have recently been exploring the natural landscape, pavilions, and towers of the valley of the medicine king.
Liu Rushuang looked back at Han Moze and silently twitched the corner of her lips. âYou like being with me this much?â
Han Moze walked ahead and replied with a smile. âWell of course. Unless, youâre not willing to?â
