Chapter 2853: Was He Being Controlled? (5)
Gu Xijiu felt much better after her nap. Upon waking, she felt stronger and healthier. Gu Xijiu opened her eyes and noticed that Di Fuyi was already awake but still continued to hug her and make her feel comfortable. Did he keep this position all through the night? It must have been draining!
Gu Xijiu felt guilty in her heart. She rolled herself out of his arms and said, "Did I make your limbs numb? Let’s get up and stretch your muscles."
Di Fuyi did not talk. He merely got up and moved his limbs while walking around the house. He was born as an elegant person, so even when he was moving his hands and feet freely, it was still pleasing to watch.
All of a sudden, he turned his head and stared at her. Gu Xijiu’s face turned red instantly as she just realized that she had been observing him for a few minutes. Perhaps, this was the first time she observed someone for so long for no apparent reason.
With an evident cough, she calmly moved her eyes away. Trying to look as though she was busy with something else, she inductively touched the body and realized that her spiritual power had recovered a bit. Although she was nowhere near ready to fight, her ability to move about quickly was restored. She could now freely move in the ice house, and no longer sweat.
Based on her inferences, she concluded that his arms were the actual source of her recovery! Evidently, this person was really her lucky star! However, given what she had done to him, Gu Xijiu did not know whether she should feel lucky or embarrassed right now. She could not help but look at him again and wonder what he was thinking.
Di Fuyi stopped again and gazed at her quietly. His eyes were intensely black like the night, and when they were focused on Gu Xijiu, she could not help but feel flustered.
She pondered for a moment and said, "The next time I sleep in your arms, you can move about. You don’t have to sit so straight as it will strain your muscles."
Di Fuyi looked down to the ground and replied, "Okay."
