The baby was astonished to find out about Princess Yuanyuan’s other ident.i.ty that no one knew.
“Yun Yanli possesses a very wild ambition and regards me as his greatest enemy. There will surely be a battle between us sooner or later. Honestly, I once suspected that she was an undercover agent that Yun Yanli sent to spy on me, after finding out who she used to be. After all, the price that she had to pay in order to save my life was too huge of a commitment for an utter stranger. There must be a reason for her sacrifice, but I could never know why, as she refused to share.”
“Perhaps she has indeed fallen for you?” The baby responded almost instantaneously.
Di Fuyi rejected his a.s.sumption, “I am very sure that it was only our first encounter when she stepped in and saved my life. She is not stupid. Why would she risk her life for a stranger that she had not met?”
“Perhaps, she had already fallen in love with you in heaven. You do know about women. Once they fall for a man, they will always step up their game and do something illogical.” the baby a.s.sumed.
“I carried out an investigation, only to find out that she was born in the Shura World about 200 years ago. How could she possibly fall in love with me in heaven?”
“I see. If you have done a very thorough investigation, then there is nothing else to say. Perhaps she was trying to achieve something by saving your life.”
Di Fuyi shook his head and added, “I know that something else must be going on. However, she did save my life. As long as she stays within limits, I can always tolerate her minor misconduct. In fact, I do want her to enjoy being a princess and be blessed with a safe and comfortable life. I gave her anything that she asked for to repay her kindness. If she had not misbehaved, I would protect her for the rest of her life, making sure that she was safe and well respected as the kingdom’s most beloved princess. When the time comes, I would even find her a good husband and bless her with a happy marriage.”
The princess really should not have challenged Di Fuyi’s tolerance. Had she not been so wicked, Di Fuyi would not have unmasked all of her conspiracies so publicly.
The baby was getting more comfortable as they chatted on. Excitedly, he added, “I can see that you are not a bad person. You wish to repay other’s kindness, and you seem to be really nice to Princess Yuanyuan.”
Smilingly, Di Fuyi teased while giving him another gentle knock on his head, “Silly; there is no concrete line between a good man and a bad man. I am not a good person. In fact, no good man will be able to get to where I am today. I am only a man with principles.”
“You have repaid her kindness with kindness. What she had to endure today was all her fault for provoking someone she should not have. She certainly has to suffer the consequences. By the way, what do you plan to do with her in the future?”
“House arrest with food and clothing. That is all,” Di Fuyi answered nonchalantly.
She was the one who saved his life. The death penalty was too severe for what she had conducted. Therefore, putting her under house arrest was the best he could do.
Princess Yuanyuan’s servants were already disappointed in her. More than half of her Kung Fu was greatly reduced under the torment of the Universal Net. Once she was confined, she would no longer have the power to condemn any violence of any sort; she was as fragile as a tigress with no teeth. She would no longer be a threat.
The baby fixed his gaze on Di Fuyi as he made an a.s.sumption, “You have been very patient in your explanation. You are counting on me to convey the messages, aren’t you?”
Di Fuyi was speechless.
He decided to remain silent as he focused on the baby’s added explanation, “My mother will not believe in everything that you say. If you have to explain everything to her, there is a chance that she refuses to believe it. The outcome would be different if I was the one who talked to her. If she knew the truth, she would probably forgive you, and both of you could end up being together again.”
