758 Because He Cared (1/2)
Qian Lingyu never understood why, but he always looked up to Gu Xijiu as though she was royalty. He essentially worshipped her. Hence, Gu Xijiu's sudden rejection of his approach was puzzling. Fortunately, Di Fuyi could respond to the situation in time, ”What’s wrong with my appearance? Don't I look pretty?”
Qian Lingyu quickly replied, ”You're beautiful! Very beautiful! Xijiu you look stunning in this dress!”
Di Fuyi laughed, ”You have good taste! I also think that I look pretty in this dress!”
Di Fuyi then turned around and noticed Long Siye staring at ”him.” He raised his eyebrows and intentionally asked, ”Overlord Long, do I look pretty in this dress?”
What else could Long Siye say? His face turned slightly pale, but he still nodded his head in acknowledgment, ”Yes, you look pretty!”
Di Fuyi smiled contentedly. He was using Gu Xijiu’s body now, so he was the primary person of the day. It was regrettable that he had to sit next to Long Siye the entire day.
Long Siye smiled, ”Xijiu, come and sit down here.”
Di Fuyi glanced at the seat but then made a request from Gu Canmo, ”Headmaster Gu, today is my 15th birthday. Should I sit beside the organizer?”
It was appropriate for the birthday girl to sit next to the organizer of the party, so his request was reasonable. The organizer of the banquet was Di Fuyi, which meant she was supposed to sit beside him.
However, the reason why Gu Canmo arranged the seating this way was that he thought that Gu Xijiu would not be willing to sit beside Di Fuyi. Therefore, he arranged for her to sit beside Long Siye. However, he was wrong! He never expected that she would have such request.
Since ”Gu Xijiu” had requested for it, Gu Canmo could not reject the request. Long Siye slightly pursed his lips in confusion. His face was even paler than before.
