Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Initially, Gu Xijiu only listened to him talk, but eventually, she took the fruits and started eating. She had already finished three fruits when Di Fuyi finished explaining his plans. Secretly, Di Fuyi found her hilarious but also felt sad for her at the same time. He then took out some minced meat for her.
As expected, Gu Xijiu did not hold back! Fortunately, she also provided some suggestions for Di Fuyi throughout their conversation and only ended the topic when both of them confirmed the plans were flawless.
According to their plans, Gu Xijiu did not have to continue carrying Stone’s name; hence, she planned to reveal her true appearance after washing her face. Di Fuyi stopped her and added, “It is alright; I have got all the tools ready; check it out in the tent.”
Indeed, Gu Xijiu found a bathtub and towel in the tent, and the water was warm. Apparently, everything was in his control, and he was well prepared.
Gu Xijiu really looked up to him for being so thorough and detailed despite his age. He looked like he was only 17 or 18 years old, but he should be slightly older. Gu Xijiu asked Di Fuyi before he left the tent, “How old are you?”
Di Fuyi was stunned. It was a difficult question for him to answer because the age gap between Gu Xijiu and Di Fuyi was one of the problems they encountered in the past. If he answered ‘seven,’ she would not believe him and might run away with the excuse that she did not want to hurt a child.
He turned around with a smile and threw the question back to her. “What do you think?”
Gu Xijiu looked at him with a serious expression and guessed, “I think the immortals in heaven are not young anymore; 200 years and above?”
Di Fuyi coughed. He did not admit it but did not deny it either. “You have sharp eyes.”
The answer misled Gu Xijiu to think that she made the right guess. Thus, she asked, “How about me?”
“233 years old.” This time, Di Fuyi said the truth. Gu Xijiu touched her face and could not believe that she was so old!
“Do not worry, 200-year-old people are still considered as teenagers in heaven. Di Fuyi tried to comfort her.
Gu Xijiu heaved a sigh of relief. “When did we know each other?”
“I knew you since I was a child.”
“Oh, we are childhood friends?” Gu Xijiu got it right. However, she came back with another question, “It does not sound right; I remember that you said this bracelet was given to you by me during your birthday.”
“You knew me much earlier, but you cuffed me with this bracelet on my birthday.” Now she realized that she was the one who admired him first.
That was embarra.s.sing. However, she thought that perhaps it was in her nature to be someone who would chase after whatever she wanted. She was generally very proactive anyway.
It was normal for her to like him since he was so charming. She truly thought that she had good eyes! She even praised herself in her heart.
She added as she glanced at him, “Why do you sound p.i.s.sed off about the bracelet? Are you not happy to be mine?”
Di Fuyi paused and continued, “Honestly, I was not willing in the first place. You tricked me, but then…”
“Then you fell for me later on?” Gu Xijiu’s eyes sparkled, proudly.
“Yes, I completely fell for you. You are the only one I want.” Di Fuyi’s eyes darkened. “I took a very big risk to come here since you were missing and almost lost my life because of you. So, Xijiu, you must marry me, there is no way for you to escape! You cannot dump me!”
It was indeed a very sweet confession. Gu Xijiu was showered with romance, and that was the first time she truly felt happy in the past six months.
Therefore, she decided to give him her vow. “Do not worry; I will not escape or dump you. No one can take you away from me.” She added after looking at the bracelet, “Since I have cuffed you with this bracelet, I will not let you go, you cannot escape even if you tried.”
Di Fuyi smiled as he nodded. “Do not worry; no one can take me away, and I will never run away.”
The words lifted any weight of Gu Xijiu’s shoulders!
