Di Fuyi stared at her for a moment and had a thought in his mind.
There were not many people that he would like to make fun of and among those that tempted him were top talents in this world. These people had very different reactions after being teased by him.
If those people encountered the same situation as Gu Xijiu, they would either desperately fight against him, cry and admit defeat or teleport away until Celestial Master Zuo had other things to do.
Upon disturbing this cheeky young girl, he had considered the many different outcomes and reactions, but he never expected this! She was not angry and did not cry but calmly ignored him.
Best of all, she was not pretending to be calm; she genuinely ignored him. Celestial Master Zuo could quickly tell from her heartbeat and blood flow if this were untrue. However, nothing was seen.
As the time pa.s.sed, a starry night fas.h.i.+oned into the sky. The lake was swaying gently while the stars shone like a diamonds in the sky. Gu Xijiu had been meditating for an hour in the water and never opened her eyes. She had entered into a quiet realm.
Di Fuyi barely smiled, but no one could be more patient than him at this moment. He took out a fis.h.i.+ng rod out of nowhere and started to fish. However, he never caught anything despite his patient efforts. Finally, there was a sharp tug on his rod, and when he lifted his hand to reel the fish up, Gu Xijiu suddenly woke up and moved her body. The water splashed a little bit, and the fish was frightened and escaped.
Di Fuyi tried to catch it but failed, and the fish had fled. Di Fuyi remained silent at first, but after a while, he said coldly, "Baby, you have scared my fish away."
Gu Xijiu raised her hand to him, "I can catch one for you."
"It is not easy to catch a fish here. Are you sure you can do it?"
Gu Xijiu said, "Never try never know." She was a champion at fis.h.i.+ng in her previous life.
Di Fuyi smiled and handed her the fis.h.i.+ng rod, "I rely on you now, baby."
The fis.h.i.+ng rod was green and bright in color. Gu Xijiu raised her two fingers and said, "I have two conditions."
Di Fuyi sighed, "Do you want me to let you go?"
"No." Gu Xijiu shook her head.
"Uh, what are your conditions then?"
"First, I want to fish on the sh.o.r.e. Second, I want to change the color of this fis.h.i.+ng rod."
...
Finally, Gu Xijiu was on the sh.o.r.e. Her entire body was dripping with water. She had been in the water for so long that her skin was wrinkled everywhere. It was already night, and the weather was quite cold on the sh.o.r.e of the lake. As she was wet, she sneezed multiple times as she rose to the coast.
She tidied up her wet hair and asked Di Fuyi who sat at the side of the sh.o.r.e, "Can I change my clothes? It is too wet and will affect my temper and patience."
"Where are you going to change your clothes?" Di Fuyi raised his eyebrow.
"There." Gu Xijiu pointed at somewhere not far away. There was a place that surrounded by a pile of rocks which was sheltered and hidden."No, it is too easy for you to run away. I do not have the patience to chase after you again." Di Fuyi rejected her request.
Gu Xijiu secretly cursed. She never begged him to chase after her. It was him who kept tracking her all the way to this place.
She sighed and replied, "I cannot change here. It is inappropriate for a girl to be naked in front of a man who is not her husband. Even though I am still young, I am still a female."
Di Fuyi looked at her for a moment and said softly, "Ah, of course, I know you are a girl…"
