Another female servant nodded. "Cool!" She bent to pick up the fish. However, a wind pa.s.sed by the ground and the dead fish instantly disappeared! Both female servants were shocked, and they realized the dead fish had flown onto Di Fuyi"s palm when they lifted their head to check.Di Fuyi said with a cold tone, "This fish is dirty now; go and catch a new one for your master if you want to make soup for her!"
The fish disappeared again after a flick of his sleeve. No one knew whether it had been destroyed or he put it away. Quietly, he turned around and left.
Gui Quan was stunned. Celestial Master Zuo was such a difficult person to handle! So, what now? Just get another one!? Anyway, he had witnessed the method Di Fuyi used to catch the fish; it was nothing difficult! He would get a bigger and better one for his master.
…
Celestial Master You did not stay at Gu Xijiu"s residence for a meal. He immediately left after showing Gu Xijiu the correct method to use the carriage. When Gu Xijiu sent him off, she was idling as she watched his departure, as though she was thinking about something.
Suddenly, she seemed to sense something and turned around. Di Fuyi slowly walked over followed by Gui Quan who was jogging toward her behind Di Fuyi.
Gu Xijiu moved slightly backward to make way, and Di Fuyi had already taken a few steps ahead of her at this point.
Gui Quan gasped as he ran forward. "National Celestial Master, Celestial Master Zuo doesn"t intend to stay for a meal; he asked me to excuse him on his behalf."
Gu Xijiu gazed toward Di Fuyi, and Di Fuyi also glimpsed at her this time. He was wearing a mask on his face. Hence, Gu Xijiu could not see his expression. Besides that, his pupils were too dark to the extent that no one could predict his emotion.
She was too tired to make a.s.sumptions anymore. Thus, she just nodded with an unremarkable smile. "Celestial Master Zuo always has a very tight schedule, so it"s very common that he cannot stay for a meal. Celestial Master Zuo, safe journey!" She lifted her sleeve to thank him for visiting. After that, she entered her mansion without turning back at all.
Di Fuyi reluctantly moved his gaze away and walked out of her mansion. Only Gui Quan sent him off, and the scene looked a little lonely.
There was a crowd outside the door who just came for fun. They saw Gu Xijiu send Celestial Master You off earlier. The citizens were somehow happy to see Di Fuyi alone and lonely when they saw that only a minion sent him off. Countless pairs of eyes were focused on him; they certainly enjoyed the show because it was very rare to see Celestial Master Zuo get embarra.s.sed.
Mu Feng and the other three messengers were still waiting in the airs.h.i.+p. Initially, they wanted to follow Celestial Master Zuo when he entered the mansion. However, Di Fuyi secretly ordered them to stand by outside.
Mu Feng and the rest secretly shook their head when they saw that Di Fuyi came out alone. He still had the guts to deliver the gift after dumping her. Besides that, it was such a lousy gift which only The Lord dared to give!
Mu Feng could feel the heat on his face when he handed the gift earlier. Miss Gu was very considerate for not throwing the gift at his face. What else did he expect from her?
In fact, Mu Feng was a little happy seeing The Lord get embarra.s.sed. Certainly, he did not dare to show the excitement on his face. When he saw The Lord glimpse at him with his head up, he quickly stood up and bowed to welcome The Lord on board.
The Lord was probably not in a good mood. He raised his head with an order. "Release the drapes."
Mu Feng remained silent, but he and the rest were confused. That was because the drapes would only be used during big events. Also, The Lord would only release the drapes when he needed to put on a show in front of the crowd. Usually, he would step on the five-colored-drapes and leisurely board the s.h.i.+p.
