Chapter 2786: Being Jealous
She was suddenly reminded of Fan Qianshi and sighed. He was a great disciple but had, unfortunately, become enamored of her. It was indeed troublesome.
First of all, she did not have much time left. Secondly, as the creator of the universe, she should share her unconditional love with every being in the world and not limit herself to a relationship. He needed to understand the importance of being unbiased, or else the six worlds would fall back into a mess once he took the role from her. Hence, she needed him to move on.
While she was caught in her preoccupation, someone suddenly made fun of her with total contempt. "Did you suddenly become dumb? An ugly being will always be ugly. A simple, kind gesture from a handsome man can easily make you dumbstruck."
Gu Xijiu followed the voice and noticed that the remark was coming from the beautiful lady beside her. Scornfully, the lady was looking at her with resentment. Was the lady jealous?
Gu Xijiu felt sorry for her. Her was attractiveness was only in her appearance. The lady gave the young man a quick look and caught him looking back at her with a half-smile. He had not commented anything about the incident.
After a pause, Gu Xijiu asked smilingly, "I have had enough of the shellfish. Gentleman, would you please help me remove the bones from my fish?"
"Hmm?" The young man was fascinated by Gu Xijiu’s sudden request.
"Ugly beings will do all sorts of things to catch other people’s attention. The reason he offered his help to you at first was because of your messy table manners. Now you are taking his help for granted. Why don’t you have a better look at yourself? Do you really think you are attractive enough to make so many unreasonable requests?" The lady spoke arrogantly.
Gu Xijiu could not care less about the rude lady. Quietly, she smiled at her and decided to handle the fish on her own. She took the dish over and started removing the fish bones with her fingers. Soon, all of her fingers were stained with sauce.
