2375 Working Together 4 (1/2)
Softly, she protested, but he did not let her go. Instead, he held onto her even tighter. The two escorts were quite observant. They noticed that Di Fuyi was busy showering the lady with affection, but they dared not look back. Attentively, they only listened closely to the conversation.
Certainly, they had not forgotten that Yun Qingluo's safety was their biggest concern. They had to be alert to keep her away from danger. As for Zhu Duqing, he frowned in utter annoyance.
Not wanting to observe this any longer, he reached out his hand, trying to pull Gu Xijiu away, but before he managed to touch her sleeve, Di Fuyi seemed to have blocked his approach. Zhu Duqing was speechless while Di Fuyi gave him a nonchalant look that was not quite friendly as a sign for him to stay away.
Suddenly, Zhu Duqing was reminded about what happened the night before, when Di Fuyi turned him into a bamboo tree. If he were to provoke Di Fuyi even more, he would probably turn Zhu Duqing back into an immobile bamboo tree in this land full of danger with nowhere to escape.
Overwhelmed by a sudden sense of panic, he decided not to do anything that would annoy Di Fuyi, though compliance was certainly against his will.
Gu Xijiu tried to pull her hand out of Di Fuyi's grasp but was not successful. Di Fuyi held onto her even tighter, making her regret making the mistake in the first place.

”I will not!” His smile remained, but the way he replied was rather firm.
”You should not be using me as an excuse to make her feel bad.”
”Baby, we have a son together. You and I are a couple.”
Gu Xijiu was speechless. Determined, she confessed, ”Di Fuyi, as I have told you, I found the child in the woods and adopted him. There is no need for you to keep me around, just for me to play the role of a mother.”Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click for visiting.
”Try to find me a daughter.”
Gu Xijiu did not answer, for she did not know what to say. She stomped on his foot in frustration, thus leaving a mark on his nicely cleaned shoe.
