Since it was a heavenly secret, Gu Xijiu decided not to pry any further. She simply looked at the little Di Hao and then looked back at Di Fuyi. Her heart skipped a beat. When Di Hao was younger, she didn"t pay much attention to his appearance. However, now that he was already a three-year-old boy, his features were certainly similar to Shen Nianmo"s! The two of them really looked like a family. Nonetheless, Gu Xijiu also noticed that Di Hao"s eyes and eyebrows were similar to hers. Whenever he smiled, his dimples on his cheeks were also very similar to hers. At that point, Gu Xijiu was still unconvinced that Di Hao was their actual son. She had not had a baby before, and was sure that the one in her stomach was her first.
To complicated matters further, Di Hao seemed to be able to antic.i.p.ate many unforeseen events. And finally, she knew that she had a special feeling about the kid. In some ways, she felt as though the little boy was her actual son rather than an adopted one. Hence, she wondered if the boy was her son from the future that came back to the past.
Gu Xijiu"s heartbeat raced from then onward. Without hesitation, she raised her hand and pulled Di Hao to her side. "Hao, you are from..."
Before she could say the word "future," Di Hao put his finger on her lips. "Mother, you don"t have to know where I came from. Just know that I see two of you as my father and mother."
His soft finger was cold, and his eyes were blinking at a higher frequency than usual, which obviously signaled her to stop asking any further questions.
Fortunately, Gu Xijiu was able to pick up the message. She smiled and replied, "Okay! We will treat you as our own son too."
At the other end of things, Di Fuyi picked up a cup of tea and looked at the boy and his mother who were chatting and laughing. When the sun shone on them, it s.h.i.+mmered a little bit like golden glitter. It was such a picturesque moment that summed up his happiness.
This scene might look very ordinary to a pa.s.serby, but for him, it was a hard-earned success. Naturally, he wanted this moment to last forever. He would not allow anyone to destroy it!
His main cause for concern now was Fan Qians.h.i.+. Di Fuyi did not know where he was hiding and what he planned to do. However, if he were not removed from the equation, he still remained a significant threat to Di Fuyi!
The man was the creator of the universe. Thus, his skills were out of this world. At this point, Di Fuyi might not even be considered a worthy opponent to him. It would be as though he was using eggs to destroy a rock. The only way he could challenge the man would be to become the master of the heavenly law. But... Di Fuyi had changed.
The man looked at his fingers and wondered if he was still the appropriate master of the heavenly law. He used to take the initiative to attack all of his opponents. In the past, once he found the way to defeat an enemy, he would immediately execute it mercilessly.
But now, he was a little bit hesitant. Although he had no memory of being the master of heavenly law, he instinctively felt that once he returned to the position, he would not be able to enjoy such a simple yet warm moment with his kids and beloved wife.
Gu Xijiu and Di Fuyi had gone through many hards.h.i.+ps together, and they finally managed to catch a break. If possible, he wanted the present to last as long as possible. He took another look at Gu Xijiu and sighed.
Swiftly, he made up his mind that it was not the right time for him to make any bold movies. Since Gu Xijiu was pregnant, it was not suitable for her to have frequent travels. He should think of their next move only after she gave birth to the baby.
As for Fan Qians.h.i.+... He would face whatever problems came when the crisis arrived.
...
Happy days always pa.s.sed very quickly. Five years had pa.s.sed, and the Starry Crescent Land had gradually turned prosperous again. Although it was not as prosperous as before, everything was certainly developing in the right direction.
Gu Xijiu"s baby was born in the second year of her pregnancy, and Di Fuyi personally helped her to deliver the baby. The little baby was very healthy.
As for Di Hao, he spent most of his time in the Biwu palace. He would leave every now and then to run a few errands, but after Di Xuyue was born, Di Hao stayed beside her all the time to take care of his sister.
When Di Xuyue was born, she was not a genius like Shen Nianmo or Di Hao. Her primary spiritual power was somewhat low, as well. Perhaps, this was because of the evil energy that was attached to her in the past.
