2854 Sacrificed For Me (1/2)
”Even if you are the reincarnation of an ancient god, you must have changed your outlook in this life. Thus, even if I knew you in your past life, I would not be able to recognize you in this life.”
Di Fuyi looked at her intensely and blinked a few times in quick succession. Nevertheless, he did not speak.
Meanwhile, Gu Xijiu stepped closer to him and asked him hopefully, ”Do I look familiar to you?”
Di Fuyi moved his eyes away from her, and faintly replied, ”I have no impressionable opinion on people with a common face.”
Gu Xijiu was speechless. In fact, she was a bit angry with his last remark. ”I have a common face?! I find my appearance to be unique!”
Whenever she appeared undisguised in public, she was like a beautiful landscape that always attracted attention. She would probably still look stunning even after she rolled around in a pile of charcoal. Perhaps, Di Fuyi just had a bad taste in women.
The man looked at her face again, and replied with just one sentence, ”I do not see it.”
Gu Xijiu did not know what to say. Maybe, it was better for her just to dismiss it. Besides, why should she care about the preference of a man with bad taste?
After surveying the outside a little more, she realized that it was just too cold for her to stand up properly. She had covered herself in the thickest coat that she had, but she still could resist the chill that drilled into her bones.
Just then, a gust of wind blew over her and forced her to take a few steps back. While walking backward, she tripped over something and almost fell. Subconsciously, she screamed, ”Catch me!”
Di Fuyi was very obedient and grabbed her into his arms. While in his embrace, Gu Xijiu realized that he was wearing a very thin set of robes. In fact, it was so thin that it was still fluttering from the gust of wind that just passed them. Nevertheless, while resting in his arms, she felt the warmth similar to standing in front of a hot stove.
Her hands and feet that were almost frozen by the cold quickly warmed up. At first, she wanted to step away from the man once she was able to steady herself. Nonetheless, at this moment, she did not feel like leaving his arms.
