"You had been manipulated back then . It was not entirely your fault . " Gu Xijiu replied as she slowly raised her hand towards Long Siye, "I just hope that we are still friends!"

The corners of his mouth raised slightly . He briefly nodded and raised his hand to meet hers . "Still friends!"

Although he never wanted to be her friend, he knew that he did not stand a chance after seeing the chemistry between Gu Xijiu and Di Fuyi .

Regardless of his intention, everything he did was destined to fail after he put her on the operating table in their previous lives . Although they met again in this life, the affection they shared in the past was long gone . A grip of their hands and their enmity was banished . From now on, they could only be friends .

Di Fuyi sat next to her . He rested his head in his hands and quietly watched as Gu Xijiu took Long Siye's hand, without feeling any jealousy . There was a sense of delight in his eyes .

The little girl had defended him in dangerous circ.u.mstances like a hen protecting her chick against an aggressive hawk . Even after the volcano had erupted, she did not let go of him at all as they evacuated from the palace . She also used her teleportation to get him to safety . However, after settling him down on the s.h.i.+p, she no longer paid any attention to him . She only talked to Li Mengxia and Long Siye .

She did not even want to look at him straight in the eyes . The little girl seemed to be a bit mad at him . Di Fuyi gently knocked on his temple . She must be mad at him for not telling her anything, after arranging such a ma.s.sive plot . Should he try to rectify the situation? He did not want to lose her once their vessel had reached the sh.o.r.e .

He coughed . "Xijiu, I did not mean to keep you out of the plot intentionally…"

Gu Xijiu turned and looked at him straight in his eyes . She frowned . "Hmm?"

While Di Fuyi was still trying to find his words, Gu Xijiu continued with a faint smile . "I know that you did not keep me out on purpose . You planned the plot gradually as things progressed unlike what Mo Zhao said, which implied that you had everything planned out in advance . I was still a fool back then . If you told me about your plan, there was no guarantee that I would not tell Mo Zhao about it . I understand completely, so there is no need for explanation . "

Di Fuyi could finally heave a sigh of relief . His face beamed with delight . "You are a smart girl! How did you know that I plotted everything gradually?"

Gu Xijiu smiled . "It is not hard to guess . If your men were already in there from the beginning, we would not have to waste so much time . You would not have to remain chained for nine days . "

Gu Xijiu wrapped her arms around herself and started to a.n.a.lyze everything from the beginning . "I suppose that there was only Teacher Long who sneaked in first, right?"

She made the correct a.s.sumption on her first try . Di Fuyi seemed to be intrigued . "Continue . "

"Mo Zhao is a man with a suspicious mind . If he could see through your disguise as a female lute accompanist, he could safely a.s.sume that your men had already disguised as his followers as well . Once he was back to the underground palace, he would certainly interrogate every one of them . You must have instructed them to stop disguising before you got caught and told them to watch for the proper moment for action . "

Di Fuyi nodded in approval . "Not bad! I indeed told them the same thing . Then?"

"Perhaps your men would obey, but not Teacher Long . He made it in, regardless . The palace guards were bounded within the hall for a few days for strict interrogation . As for Teacher Long, he must have contacted you after he came out . "

Di Fuyi sighed . "He contacted me on the fourth day . He went into the cell and saw me in my difficult position . He teased me so that I could recognize him . "
