OPEN YOUR MASK, PRINCESS!
Episode 472
"Sleep first, don't mind me. I can take care of myself, Fang." Grace again told her servant to rest. He decided to keep his father here, Fang Fang was accompanying him nearby.
"Well, lady, if you need any help, wake me up." Fang Fang finally complied. He had felt drowsiness since then but continued to hold it. Fortunately Grace was very sensitive and forced her to take a break. Grace knew very well that Fang Fang had just been discharged from the hospital and had not fully recovered.
"Ng.. sleep there, I can sleep next to you if I want." Grace muttered pointing at the bed there, she knew Fang Fang's mind would definitely sleep on the sofa in order to give Grace the place.
The servant girl did not argue, perhaps lazy to argue with her employer. Shortly after, Fang Fang fell asleep and left Grace still awake looking after Kao Jing.
Grace freely looked at the old face of her father who was still unconscious. She had never looked at Kao Jing this closely, and only then did Grace realize that her father was very old.
Without the need to take action to kill his life alone, maybe the rest of Kao Jing's life will not be long. Who can guess the life of a person? Even the younger Li San had already left first.
"Dad, it's your daughter. Forgive me for being stubborn and defiant of you. Please don't leave me like this, I'm very lost brother Chen Kho but I'm sure he won't calm down to see us live suffering like this. Please, for the sake of Chen Kho's brother, I keep my spirit alive. Grace would never leave dad. When you wake up, Grace promises to be near you, looking after you. Whatever Grace will do as long as I'm happy."
Grace consciously said that, whatever it was for her father's sake. He believes after losing Chen Kho, his father has changed and has no partner to do evil anymore. Moreover, Li San is gone, the possibility for a coup is very small. Grace could not be expected and surely Kao Jing would have no hope of recruiting people to launch her ambitions again.
After saying her determination, Grace fell asleep in a sitting position leaning on the edge of Kao Jing's bed. At that moment, Kao Jing's fingers moved slowly, as slow as her consciousness began to return.
❤️❤️❤️
The main hall was full of dignitaries, advisors, and guests of honor who came to meet Liang Jia's invitation. The atmosphere of mourning is still clear, especially Li San has not been buried. The day that Weini and the others were waiting for had arrived, the day that he would be officially appointed as the successor of the Li clan. In front of his father's coffin, Weini would make his vow as the new ruler.
Dina and Stevan stood tense, those who knew nothing should join in this sacred moment. No one was absent, no exception Grace who still left Kao Jing for a while to attend this event. Grace's position as a family member meant she had to be separated some distance from Stevan's barisa only as a guest.
Stevan is forced to steal the opportunity to look at Grace from a distance, until Grace realizes her existence and returns Stevan's smile that looks very happy to be glimpsed by Grace.
"Udah deh, postponed the first one. It's another serious moment, it's wrong again to get caught." Dina's whisper reminded Stevan not to forget himself.
"Yes bringel." Stevan replied with a whisper, he bowed obediently to Dina even though with a heavy heart.
The sound of drums being played by the line of bodyguards in the courtyard of the hall sounded boisterous. Dina and Stevan were amazed to see the attraction in person, despite having to peek out. Suddenly everyone in the room who had been standing straight up since just now rushed down, Dina and Stevan followed the movements of the people in front of them despite not knowing what they meant.
Weini's footsteps began to climb the main hall, he led the way and followed by Liang Jia who was behind him.
"Honor the fifth lady and the great mistress, long live." The cry sounded loud and compact from everything in the hall, except for Dina and Stevan who were perplexed at not understanding what they were saying.
Only then did Dina and Stevan realize what they were looking down on when they saw Weini standing in the middle of the hall. Highlight the eyes of the two Weini friends looked very amazed, amazed and proud to see Weini who looks very dignified in his golden-yellow robe and embroidered Phoenix style. Pride was most clearly felt by Dina, she seemed to not believe that last night the ruling girl who was standing there turned out to be a room with her.
"She slept in my room all night, which is cool to me. Only I've ever shared a bed with him." Showing off Dina to Stevan who still had not stopped staring at Weini.
"Trust me...." Stevan replied briefly. It was better to condense that response than to serve it, there would be no end to face the stubbornness of Dina.
Xiao Jun looked at Weini with awe, finally the post was given to the right person. If Weini and Haris had not been found, had Li San's death been long before the fact was revealed, it might have been Xiao Jun who stood in Weini's position now and was forced to accept his fate with a depressed feeling. After all Xiao Jun still held his identity as a descendant and successor of the Wei clan, as good as any lure offered to him.
Many guests were whispering their opinions about Weini. A girl who long disappeared left rumors, and now suddenly returned and was appointed as a successor. Weini could hear their whispers, but did not bother with the skewed opinion of her.
Counselor He turned to Liang Jia, asking for instructions that the ritual today should be started. Liang Jia agreed with a slow nod, then the adviser He immediately responded and started everything.
"The letter of decision from the previous businessman, Li San Jing, everyone here is on their knees." Shouted advisor He.
All the guests who attended followed the order, no exception who and how high their positions outside. Dina and Stevan who knew nothing just came along.
Weini felt a little awkward, although he could still disguise it through calmness. It's a hard day for him, after all the sacred processions have gone, he will be completely a new Weini.
Dad, look at me standing here for you. For the sake of my baktu that can do little for you, I will continue to fight, trying to realize your expectations. Bless me as your successor, from now on everything you used to control will continue.
❤️❤️❤️
