Chapter 776: She Held Her Fingers
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The mussel thought that "Celestial Master Zuo" would take the fish. However, he did not want the fish and even gently tapped its shell. That was what its master always did when she saw it. The mussel missed it so much!
The mussel was teary and attempted to move toward "Celestial Master Zuo." Lu Wu also jumped down from the shell and ran to the real Gu Xijiu. It used one of its tail to tickle her hand. However, Gu Xijiu tried to control her desire of wanting to comb its fur.
Lu Wu always tickled her hand with its tail and pulled it over to comb its fur from its head to its tails. Lu Wu's fur was as smooth as silk. Hence, Gu Xijiu liked to brush it whenever she was free. Apparently, the little one wanted her to comb its fur as well. Every time she grooms its fur, it would feel so relaxed and use its tail to play with Gu Xijiu. It had become their habits after a while. Gu Xijiu almost forgot that she was now Celestial Master Zuo. She subconsciously wanted to play with her favorite pets.
It was only when Di Fuyi glared at her then when she realized it. In fact, animals are more sensitive than humans. Perhaps, they did not know there was someone else living inside their master’s body, but they could sense the abnormalities of their master. Thus, Gu Xijiu had to be very careful in front of them to prevent them from finding out the truth.
She held her fingers and tried not to comb Lu Wu’s fur. Lu Wu tickled her with its tails for a long time but did not get any response from her. The little one was very depressed and jumped onto the mussel’s shell again, and lied down like a pitiful puppy.
Gu Xijiu was quite sad. She sent a Directed Audio to Di Fuyi, "When can we return to our original bodies?"
Di Fuyi answered casually, "Perhaps, the day I get murdered."
Gu Xijiu was speechless.
She did not want to talk crap with him.
The fish was finally ready. Di Fuyi looked at Gu Xijiu, "Do you want to try?"
Gu Xijiu took a glimpse of the fish and confirmed that the fish would taste awful. Hence, she shook her head, "I thought you're supposed to give this to the mussel?"
Di Fuyi smiled, "You're Celestial Master Zuo, and you're the guest, of course, you should take it first. So, do you want to try?"
Gu Xijiu was not keen and shook her head, "Give it to the mussel then, you should keep your promise."
Di Fuyi stopped talking and gave the fish to the mussel. The mussel was already impatiently waiting for its fish; it quickly started eating. It looked at Di Fuyi after taking a bite and then looked at him again after taking another bite.
Di Fuyi was not happy, "Why are you looking at me? Can looking at me make your food nicer?"
The mussel twitched its mouth, "Master, I feel that your skills have deteriorated."
Di Fuyi was speechless. He was given the cold shoulder by her pet! He hardly grilled food for anyone and was now being criticized by the mussel!
It was rare to see Celestial Master Zuo get embarrassed. Hence, Gu Xijiu laughed and asked, "Is there any more fish? I'll grill it."
Di Fuyi looked at the mussel and then looked at Gu Xijiu, "No more! Only one."
What!? He only got one even after spending half a day fishing? His skills must be as lousy as before!
The mussel showed an unbelievable expression, "One? That’s not enough to fill the gaps between my teeth! Master, we only come back once every three days, how could you abuse us like this…"
