927 The Snow Had Just Turned Clear; The Moon Had Just Risen (1/2)

Little Fox had direly needed a companion to coordinate with her; the presence of Ying Yannuo was thereby like a timely rain in a drought. After making some slight adaptations to the battle group, he was soon able to keep up with Gu Xijiu’s footsteps. The coordination between the three was nearly sublime, defeating and beating the crap out of every other group...

Gu Xijiu felt relieved—no longer was Little Fox wallowing in languidness and low spirits.

…

There had just been a big snowfall.

The snow had just turned clear; the moon had just risen.

Gu Xijiu softly pushed the gate open and walked into the courtyard.

This is where Di Fuyi had used to live. After he left the place had been closed since, with no one but Gu Xijiu ever entering it again.

Di Fuyi had an eccentric personality and did not allow people to walk into his place freely. Therefore, Gu Canmo had not sent his disciples for housekeeping and domestic duties after Di Fuyi had left.

On the contrary, it was Gu Xijiu who strolled into his place once every two or three days.

She came there to clean, to tidy up the house.

She had lived in the housing in this place for about half a month and developed a feeling for it. The feeling was especially strong after Di Fuyi had left, and she would visit the place every time she thought of him…

As she could hardly sleep again tonight, she went straight to this place.

The moonlight hung there like a pale and white disc in the sky. It was another full moon night, yet over here it was as empty as ever—as it always had been.

Gu Xijiu perched on a large tree in the courtyard and looked at the bracelet on her wrist, then again at the moon in the sky: ”Di Fuyi, you told me to give you a year for you to see me again. But it has been a year and five months, and there’s still no any news of you. You’ve broken our promise!”
