594 The Lord Was Given A Cold-Shoulder 2 (2/2)

Both the spiritual fruit and pastry were sufficient to keep her full for one whole day even if she consumed one a day. Hence, she could sustain her life for six days without stepping out from the house.

Seemed like The Lord has prepared everything for her and she only needed to wander around the house to find it. Unfortunately, she was in a hurry to leave the house as The Lord was not there.

Gu Xijiu felt grateful in her heart but also guilty at the same time. The Lord was really annoying, but he treated her relatively nicely and cared about her.

Because of Long Xi, she automatically set a barrier between her and any man who acted like her mentor.

She was just like Yang Guo, who had been bullied too often by his mentor (Zhao Zhijing). He even hated the term 'mentor' and was only willing to address Xiaolongnu as an aunt.

Gu Xijiu’s situation was slightly similar to Yang Guo's, however, one was abused by their mentor, and the other one was disappointed and betrayed. Yet, her mentality was very similar to Yang Guo's as both of them shared the feeling - once bitten, twice shy! Therefore, she decided not to seek any mentorship, especially from a man.

However, being mentored by The Lord was an unavoidable coincidence, and was initially just a temporary plan. She did not see herself as an official follower of The Lord, even though that was her title.

Now, she finally found a special feeling; she respected The Lord. It was different from the feelings she had for Long Siye. She admired The Lord, but she had no idea what kind of feeling she had for Long Siye. She recalled the dream again and suddenly got irritated.

Long Xi used to be a hidden wound in her heart, and the past was a scar to remind her of her 'stupidity,' which made her avoid thinking about it. She did not even want to see this person anymore.

Gu Xijiu had no idea when she had stopped avoiding this taboo. She even began to use it as a reference during her reflections. Most importantly, she did not hate Long Xi anymore.
