Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Gu Xijiu remained silent. It must have read too much romance stories.
She always had a feeling that it was a trap set by Di Fuyi.
It seemed like he had prepared to announce the marriage arrangement here but never voiced it out until she spoke of her secret pledge to marry to Rong Jialuo.
She could not help but look at Rong Jialuo. The Crown Prince had helped her multiple times and was sincere to her. She never expected to hurt him…
If she knew of this earlier she would not agree to Rong Jialuo’s plan, because now they were looked upon as a joke.
When she was lost in thought, her palm was held by someone and she was stiffed. She looked at the side and saw Di Fuyi was smiling at her, "What are you thinking?"
"I am thinking of your intentions." Gu Xijiu replied unconsciously.
She regretted after saying it out loud. She had been a calm person but was always impulsive whenever she talked to him.
This guy had sharp eyes and she always spoke her innermost thoughts under his gaze.
Her voice was a little bit loud, but fortunately, the hall was busy discussing this matter thus no one heard their conversation.
"Uh?" Di Fuyi leaned down with his palm supporting his head and looked at Gu Xijiu, "Have you figured anything yet?"
Gu Xijiu shook her head.
Di Fuyi stared at her for a moment, "Keep trying. It is rare for me to get any engagement. What would my intentions be? I do not need to have any intention to do anything."
Gu Xijiu frowned. She had drunk a lot tonight so her brain was not functioning too well. She subconsciously replied, "There is nothing that you will do without purpose."
Di Fuyi remained silent.
It seemed like this little girl knew him well.
"Alright, then tell me what my intention is. You can start with a possible reason…"
Gu Xijiu raised her eyebrows and quickly racked her brain to think of all possible reasons.
Suddenly she had something in her mind and blurted out, "You want to use me as your cover-up!"
Di Fuyi remained silent.
Then he repeated the sentence, "Cover-up?" He seemed confused, "Why would I ever need to use a fiancé as a cover-up?"
He thought of something and laughed, however, the laugh was a bit cold, "Well, yes, a cover-up indeed."
Gu Xijiu never expected that he would be so honest and she choked, "Why me…? I think you should marry someone who loves you…"
"It is because you are most suitable one." Di Fuyi patted her hand and leaned towards her. His warm breath almost rushed into her ear, "Only you know my sexual preference… so you are the best fit…"
So he was really gay and he wanted her to be his wife as a cover-up!
She suddenly turned around and was not aware that he was very close to her, so her lips grazed his lips…
Both lips touched each other for a short while. His lips were warm and as if it had current, Gu Xijiu’s face blushed and subconsciously leaned backward. The chair was not stable enough so she almost fell off it.
Suddenly, there was an arm behind her waist to hold her.
All these happened at lightning speed so when Gu Xijiu was back to her senses, she was already sitting wrapped in Di Fuyi's arms!
He was wearing an oversized robe and she was surrounded by his large sleeves. She could smell the light fragrance on him, as though seeping into her heart…
