Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Di Fuyi politely replied with a smile, “It is all right.”
The moment Yin Jiusi stood up straight, he could immediately tell that there was something more behind the man’s awfully courteous smile. Di Fuyi looked at him sternly in the eye and sent quick chills down his spine.
After a short pause, he smiled apologetically and said, “National Master Di, I believe that you have heard our plan, haven’t you? Should the wedding be carried in a month?”
Di Fuyi took a look at Gu Xijiu before giving a nonchalant answer, “Sure. You are invited to be one of our guests.”
Yin Jiusi was dumbfounded. “Huh?”
Gu Xijiu was about to take a sip of tea before Di Fuyi dropped the bomb on them. In response to his calm reply to Yin Jiusi, she spilled her tea all over the table.
Di Fuyi no longer paid his attention to the other man in the room. Instead, he pulled a chair over to sit down by the table before grasping Gu Xijiu by her hand. “Baby, I have made up my mind. Let’s have our wedding a month from now. You can pick anywhere you like. As for the guests, I will definitely invite all my friends and companions from all six worlds to witness our union. It will surely be a grand event.”
With s.h.i.+ver down her spine, Gu Xijiu was utterly surprised to be called his ‘baby.’ His words. .h.i.t Gu Xijiu hard in the face. She looked at him fixedly and could not believe anything that he had just said. She even forgot to pull her hand out of his awkward grasp.
“Wait. Wait a moment. What about our wedding?”
Di Fuyi slowly traced a strand of loose hair to the back of her ear. “Stop messing with me, will you?”
The romantic gesture also came as a shock to her. Gu Xijiu could not understand. How was she messing with him exactly?
Yin Jiusi had dated enough women to get a brief grasp of their current awkwardness. He quickly studied the two of them and came up with a bold guess. From his point of view, the Divine Lord and Di Fuyi used to be together, but Di Fuyi must have done something unwittingly offensive, which resulted in an impulsive decision of Gu Xijiu wanting to marry another man.
Unfortunately, Yin Jiusi was the unlucky man who had become her rebound. He finally understood why the Divine Lord insisted on coming along with him to meet Di Fuyi, all three of them together. No wonder she wanted to talk about the plans for their wedding. It was all but a show for Di Fuyi.
While he was still caught in the preoccupation, Di Fuyi could be seen pus.h.i.+ng all of the gifts away. In fact, as soon as Yin Jiusi recollected all of the items, he was asked to leave. “You should go now,” Di Fuyi suggested.
Yin Jiusi also felt that his presence was completely unnecessary, given the current circ.u.mstances. He apologetically said, “All right, you both should talk. I shall go out and take a walk.” He then turned and left hastily. Finally, the man realized that jackpots never existed. It was all but a trap. It was a nice dream, but it was now time to wake up. He needed to leave and spend some time alone.
…
Gu Xijiu finally freed her hand from his grasp. “Di Fuyi, what did you mean?”
A suitable candidate was undeniably hard to come by, so his sudden interruption had ruined her entire plan. What was he trying to do?
“Why didn’t you look for me?” Di Fuyi locked his eyes on her.
Gu Xijiu took a look at the hourgla.s.s in the corner before replying to him, “It is not time yet. There is still an hour to go before we should meet.”
“I am not talking about our meeting later. Why didn’t you look for me when you needed a wedding? After all, I am your fiancé.”
Gu Xijiu was surprised. “What are you talking about? What fiancé?”
Di Fuyi rolled up his sleeve to reveal the bracelet on his wrist.
