Lan Fei was the idol of the nation. It was not too much of a shock for him to propose to the incoming ruler of the mermaids. He poured his heart and soul into writing Gu Xijiu a love letter, saying that he had been thinking about Gu Xijiu for over eight years. He had looked for her for eight years! It was like a gift from God that he managed to find her.
Lan Yaoguang was utterly shocked when he received the news! Had Lan Fei proposed to Lan Jingyi, he would be so happy to give his consent. But Gu Xijiu… To Lan Yaoguang's knowledge, his sister had belonged to someone else, so he immediately rejected the proposal. He told Lan Fei that Gu Xijiu was engaged.
However, Lan Fei was determined. He sent in another proposal after two days. Lan Fei was ready to be the second husband of the incoming ruler of the mermaids, and would not rival against the first husband. He only wanted to be by her side.
