Venerated Venomous Consort

The excuse made sense, so Gu Xijiu trusted his reply.

”Did you approach me with any other identity? Have you ever pretended to be my enemy?”

”Yes, but I just wanted to know more about you.” He still could not speak the truth. Otherwise, he would expose his identity as The Lord.

Indeed! He was a mysterious man!

She always wondered when she offended such a mighty person. Now she knew he just wanted to investigate her! She smiled awkwardly, ”So you were looking for heaven’s gift disciples? And you would just investigate whenever you see something strange and unique?”

Di Fuyi smiled silently. It looked as though he agreed with her question.

Gu Xijiu could not help but shake her head, ”Your investigation method is really unique…”

How many people has he investigated with this strategy? Damn it! All the weird people she has met before were him! She just felt she could never escape from his palm.

Gu Xijiu felt frustrated when she recalled all the encounters she had with imposters, ”Celestial Master Zuo, you seem to be very free huh…”

Di Fuyi was speechless. Indeed! He was really very free!

Initially, he was planning to find something fun to do, but who knew that he would get himself into trouble later!

He paused and asked, ”Why have you randomly recalled all this? And how did you even know it was me?”

Gu Xijiu thought whether she should tell him the truth. He would hide his odor when he tries to fake his identity again if she tells him that she could recognize people this way. However, what could she say if she did not want to tell the truth?

She paused for a second and smiled, ”I just feel some of their actions and behavior seemed similar to you. So I just asked.”

How intelligent was Di Fuyi? The excuse was a bad one. He definitely would not believe it! He looked at her, and he knew she was very alert, so her words were not entirely reliable. However, he had no right to blame her as he really had his difficulties in telling her the truth as well.

No couple had zero secrets between each other, especially for the two of them. Both of them continued walking for a few miles, but none of them spoke a word.

Gu Xijiu felt quite bored. She even felt this way when she wandered around with Long Siye; her legs were sore and tired. She would prefer to go singing or drink in a bar or maybe even watch a movie. However, Long Siye liked to walk around all the time, so she also tried to tolerate and follow him. She did all this just to be with him. This time, she did not go to sleep even though it was quite late. She followed Di Fuyi to wander around directionlessly. Surprisingly, she was not annoyed but felt secure to walk beside him as though she would not need to worry even if the sky collapsed.

Of course, throughout the walk, she also paid attention to her surroundings to make sure no one followed behind them. There would not be much interaction between the two of them anymore after tonight. She would go back to where she used to stay and go to class every day in Tianju Hall.

”What’s your plan?” Di Fuyi asked as he broke the silence between them.

Gu Xijiu paused and answered, ”Work hard and work harder!”

Di Fuyi remained silent for a second.

”You’re not planning to follow Long Siye to Tianwen Mountain?”

Gu Xijiu was stunned and shook her head, ”I just came to Tianju Hall not long ago, there are many things for me to learn. Why would I go to Tianwen Mountain?”
