Chapter 2682: An Exaggerated Plot Of Absurdity (2)
Di Fuyi did not pay much attention to her at first. She was merely a stranger who was irrelevant to him. Her talent, however, managed to impress him, so he did not mind having her as an opponent for a game or two.
Over time, Di Fuyi grew fond of her. When he went fishing in the Milky Way, he would very often catch certain fishes that possessed an immense source of spiritual power and also tasted good. He would reserve his good catches specifically for Gu Xijiu.
The two men never needed any food; so, Gu Xijiu would finish most of the fish on her own. Day after day, her spiritual power gradually increased. As the video progressed, Gu Xijiu realized that everything in the universe was still in perfect harmony. The main difference was that Di Fuyi seemed to fancy Xijiu, the girl whom he called as his young, little apprentice. They no longer only played chess together; instead, they would often travel from galaxy to galaxy together. Those were happy days for both of them.
Soon, Di Fuyi started looking at Xijiu differently. In return, Xijiu seemed to be quite attached to Di Fuyi as well, whom she called her big brother in purple robes. However, Xijiu’s heart still belonged to Fan Qianshi. She would propose to him every few centuries, but Fan Qianshi was never in a hurry to tie the knot. As time went by, Xijiu grew to have a slight feeling of resentment towards Fan Qianshi, so she started spending more time with Di Fuyi instead.
Slowly, Di Fuyi realized that he had indeed fallen in love with the little girl. However, what Xijiu had for Di Fuyi was merely the bond between a brother and a sister. She never took him as a lover.
One day, Di Fuyi finally proposed to Xijiu. He wanted her by his side, always and forever. Xijiu finally realized how Di Fuyi felt about her, but she clearly knew that the man she loved was Fan Qianshi, so she turned away from his proposal.
