Chapter 2116: The Explanation About Their Engagement (3)
"Stone, who is this?" The clan leader consulted Gu Xijiu about the newcomer.
Before Gu Xijiu could answer, Di Fuyi explained himself. "I am her fiancé. You must be the clan leader, am I right? We need to talk."
The clan leader’s eyes flashed with uncertainties, and his jaw dropped. The other’s did not know about Gu Xijiu’s real identity, but he was well aware of it. Her fiancé was here looking for her now. The clan leader sighed and agreed. "All right, follow me."
...
The clan leader’s house was a two-story building made entirely out of stone, like a little castle.
To play the role of Stone, Gu Xijiu had to share the house with the clan leader. She was staying on the first floor. The ground floor was where the clan leader’s room, and the living room were located. The clan leader brought them to the living room.
Gu Xijiu was already familiar to the surrounding. Di Fuyi, on the other hand, was unimpressed. The house was so simple and crude. The only pieces of furniture in the living room were the stone table and chairs, without any cushion to keep warm.
Did Gu Xijiu really spend the past six months in such a shabby place? It was no wonder her body was getting weaker; thus, explaining the instability of her name on the celestial pillar. Although the clan leader felt a sense of enmity towards Di Fuyi, he still welcomed him as a guest into his house. He pointed at the chair and asked him to sit.
