208 I Don’t Feel Hot! I’m Not Taking Off My Clothes! (2/2)

”But… But I failed, right? You’re perfectly fine. You’re a Celestial Master, don’t be so fussy with a kid.”

”No, you succeeded.” Di Fuyi spoke slowly, ”I was poisoned, but we can only find out if I’m safe or not after we get married.”

Gu Xijiu remained silent.

She took a deep breath and said, ”Master Palace, I think we need to talk.”

Di Fuyi looked at her, ”Not everyone is allowed to address me as Master Palace, did you know that? First of all, he or she must be my subordinate. Secondly, he or she must be my friend. And lastly, my wife can also address me this way. So, which one are you?”

Gu Xijiu was speechless. She was not his subordinate, not his friend, and of course, she was not his wife!

”Then… Mr. Celestial Master”

”We have two Celestial Masters, how would I know who you are calling?”

Gu Xijiu did not want to argue about trivial matters, ”Fine! Mr. Celestial Master Zuo, I…”

”Everyone is addressing me this way, so you mean to say you are their equals?”

Gu Xijiu was upset and speechless. Could he not even talk nicely!?

”Then what should I address you?”

Di Fuyi extended his legs and said, ”Sweetheart, you should figure it out by yourself.”

Gu Xijiu pondered and asked, ”Oh right, why are you calling me ‘sweetheart’?”

He has been calling her as sweetheart many times now. She did not care previously, as she was busy planning her great escape.

Di Fuyi looked at her and said, ”Many years ago, I had a tour outside and that was the first time I met you. You were so tiny back then.” He raised his hand and tried to illustrate her size with his hand. I had already called you sweetheart at that time.”
