Chapter 376: Lifting Her Up 3
Gu Xietian was lost in his own thoughts when the question was raised, so he was quite taken back by the sudden accusation. He took a while to recall the incident. It all happened when he struck a hit at Gu Xijiu while trying to save his son.
His expression changed – there was a slight remorse. "I didn’t hit her deliberately. It was all in the moment of desperation."
"Desperation? What kind of desperation?" Di Fuyi tapped the table lightly, "What kind of desperate situation would make you decide to strike her so immediately?"
Gu Xietian stammered over his words, "It was..."
"General Gu, what kind of atrocious crime had she committed, that had triggered you to sacrifice your ties of blood to righteousness and punish her together with the elders of Jiu Xing clan?" asked Di Fuyi, icily.
Gu Xijiu was surprised, too. In fact, she was hurt the day before yesterday, but as luck would have it, she happened to have with her the Gold-Inflicted Remedy, which was a very effective remedy. She felt so much better after taking the medicine. Otherwise, she would not have gone out to search for a new home with the company of Rong Jialuo. They even went for a tea afterwards.
After going back to her new home, she felt a little unsettled and short-tempered. She could even feel the rush of blood in her circulation, which was abnormal from her usual body condition. She examined herself and found out that the reverberation of the blood vessels was the root of the problem. Although it was not a big deal, she took another medicine to recover quickly.
Just yesterday, she took a rest for the entire day and she felt as if she was fully recovered. She never thought that Di Fuyi would expose everything just by taking her pulse.
