Gu Xijiu finally felt an overwhelming sense of relief. She even shed a tear in the process. She glared at him and remained silent as she pursed her lips.

Di Fuyi was shocked. "What happened? Why do you look like you"re going to cry?"

His glanced around, and his gaze stopped at Rong Jialuo"s tombstone. He seemed to understand what was going on and sighed. "Xijiu, you"re sad for Rong Jialuo? In fact, he…"

Before he could finish talking, Gu Xijiu pulled his sleeve and walked away. "Follow me!" Without hesitation, Di Fuyi followed her.

The two of them arrived at a pavillion. It was built on the hill and surrounded by a plum forest. It was the plum flower season; hence, the scene looked spectacular!

Since it was drizzling and they were in the forest, no one would come to this place, and that made it a good place for a private date. The rain was gentle while the red petals on the ground occasionally flew up into the pavilion and onto their clothes.

Originally, there was a stone table and bench in the pavillion. However, Di Fuyi has thrown it away because he felt it had worn out. He took a soft chair out from his storage s.p.a.ce for Gu Xijiu.

Gu Xijiu did not talk much, but she was idling as she looked at the plum forest outside the pavillion.

Di Fuyi took a look at her complexion and realized she looked much better since she had a good sleep. However, there were some tiny capillaries at the bottom of her eyeb.a.l.l.s. Apparently, she did have a good rest in the last two days.

He first checked on her pulse and then wanted to check her heartbeat; however, Gu Xijiu suddenly grabbed his hand. Di Fuyi looked at her and realized she was staring at him with her eyes widely opened. "Di Fuyi, when are you marrying me?" asked Gu Xijiu.

Di Fuyi was shocked. Before he could say anything, Gu Xijiu asked again, "Seems like you still not willing to marry me, right?"

Di Fuyi ran out of words. "Xijiu, I…"

"I know what you want to say." Gu Xijiu interrupted him. "You want to say that you only have three months left to live and you don"t want to tie me up so that I wouldn"t be a widow after three months because you don"t want to ruin my life... am I right? Is this what you want to say? So, even after you know that I already know everything, you still want to avoid this, and that"s what you mean by protecting me?!"

Di Fuyi remained silent.

Gu Xijiu was getting angrier as she talked; hence, she pulled Di Fuyi to the chair. She drew very close to him and fixed her gaze right in front of his eyes. "Do you think what I said is right?"

Both of them were extremely close now; they could even smell each other"s breaths now.

Di Fuyi was excited, but he tried to control his desires. He sighed. "Xijiu…"

When he was about to explain, Gu Xijiu suddenly pushed him down without any notice. She positioned herself on his body right as he slumped onto the chair. 


Di Fuyi was alarmed. Although that was what he wanted all the while, something was wrong with her. Her face blushed as she lied on his body and her eyes looked like it was burning as the plum forest was reflected in her pupils.

Di Fuyi did not think too much but held one of her wrists to check her pulse. "Xijiu, you"re heaty recently, this is the side effect of condensing into an immortal body. I…"

Before he finished talking, his top had been torn!
