Chapter 596: The Lord Was Given A Cold-Shoulder 4
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
She even saw The Lord’s house slippers under the small bedside table. She was wondering if she should tidy up the bed. Logically speaking, she should not see such a private place. She pondered for a bit and decided to get to work. After all, The Lord was really a fussy man who was obsessed with cleanliness. Hence, she'd better clean it properly.
She opened the silky bed drapes and finally saw the decorations inside. She was stunned, and then her heart skipped a beat! It was a purplish scene behind the bed drapes. Both the blanket and pillow looked exactly like purple clouds. They were surrounded by a mountain and stream. Everything was tidy and neat, but Gu Xijiu was still idling.
The Lord likes purple color, too? She always remembered that Celestial Master Zuo (Di Fuyi) was the one who liked purple, but now she also saw purple everywhere in The Lord's house!
There was a difference in the shade of purple though. Di Fuyi liked dark purple, but The Lord seemed to like light purple which could make everything look as gentle as the clouds in the sky. Was it a coincidence?
She then took a closer look and found a book on the neat blanket. It was a thin book which was about 50-60 pages carrying the title - 'Analysis of Innate Mobility' on the cover. Gu Xijiu remained silent.
The huge book given to her by The Lord was a manual regarding innate mobility. Hence, the analysis was basically designed to enhance the manual!
She opened the book and read through it. However, she released a long sigh after reading the first sheet!
She had many questions when she read the manual, and all the questions were solved when she read the analysis! How great it if she could read this analysis earlier!
She was not sure whether it was too late for her to read the analysis now though. Argh! Forget it! Since she was there, might as well read as much as she could. Perhaps The Lord would give her a test from this topic.
Gu Xijiu was very smart, and she could read quickly. She had already finished reading five sheets in a brief period. The analysis was not easy to understand, so it was considered very fast.
She almost forgot where she was and started to mumble when she read something she did not understand, "What do they mean?"
"A pair of palms, a pair of feet, and a Hundred Convergences make up the ‘Five Hearts.'" A voice suddenly came from above her head.
Gu Xijiu was shocked and raised her head in haste. She saw The Lord standing beside his bed. He was staring at her sitting at the edge of the bed.
"Heh…" She was panicked and subconsciously reversed. As she was not thinking straight, she fell backward!
Unexpectedly, her legs accidentally hooked on the bed drapes, and they fell on her. The drapes also fell on The Lord, and he quickly pulled it over his head.
Gu Xijiu was now lying on the bed, and The Lord was standing beside it. Both of them looked at each other from inside the drapes. Gu Xijiu was lying horizontally on the bed with her legs split widely open while The Lord was coincidentally standing in between her legs.
"Are you, trying to bribe me by submitting yourself?" The Lord questioned.
Gu Xijiu’s face blushed, and she wanted to escape, but there was nowhere to go. She needed to move slightly forward to get up from the bed. Unfortunately, both of her legs accidentally clipped on The Lord’s waist when she moved forward!
She was shocked and quickly split her legs wider so that The Lord could move away. However, that position was even worse, and she almost cried!

She quickly withdrew her legs. However, she had left two footprints on the light purple mattress as she was still wearing thin boots. How embarrassing!
Gu Xijiu decided to teleport due to her state of panic.
She was too nervous and did not realize her legs were still hooked to the curtains. As a result, she teleported out to the courtyard together with the entire bed drapes.
She felt embarrassed and annoyed as she was wrapped in the bed drapes. However, when she finally struggled out, she realized there were four pairs of eyes looking at her!
The four messengers were talking with each other at the stone table. Gu Xijiu fell from the sky and dropped directly on their table.
All of their eyes were opened widely as they saw Gu Xijiu crawl out from the bed drapes. This little girl came out from The Lord’s bedroom with his bed drapes. What had The Lord done?
Gu Xijiu sat on the table as though she was the appetizer of the night. That was definitely the most embarrassing day of her life! She could not wait to drill a hole into the ground and bury herself inside it!
She smiled awkwardly as she looked at the four pairs of eyes, "Hehe… You’re back!"
Messenger Shangshan was good at socializing, but he could also overthink sometimes. He felt that Miss Gu seemed to be annoyed by them. He immediately stepped back, "Hehe, yea, we’re back. Actually, we still have something to do. We’ll make a move first!" He pulled the other three who were still idling, "Let’s go!"
The four of them left without turning back.
Gu Xijiu was sitting there helplessly. Was she possessed by evil spirits? How could she make so many mistakes in a row! She… She used to be firm and calm no matter the situation.
"Are you, trying to have a moon bath with my bed drapes?" The Lord appeared in front of the door and looked at her while leaning on the door frame.
God of Thunder, please strike me!
Gu Xijiu secretly took a deep breath and then took another one to calm herself. She removed the bed drapes from her body and then jumped onto the ground and said with a firm tone, "My sincere apologies, I’ve spoiled your bed drapes. Xijiu…. Xijiu would compensate…"
"The bed drapes are made from ice silk in the snow together with shark silk, and it costs 10,000 spiritual stones for one inch, how are you going to compensate?"
Gu Xijiu was silent. The bed drapes were hanging above a bed of about two meters in length and two meters in width, so how many inches was that?
Gu Xijiu quickly calculated and unsurprisingly realized it was a super high price! The spiritual stones she had earned tonight were only enough to pay for a tiny piece of the drapes.
She took a deep breath and then took a look at the bed drapes. There was about a foot long tear, but the rest was still in good condition.
"My Lord, I think I can sew the torn part." Gu Xijiu took the courage to bargain.
"Can it be sewed perfectly?"
How could that possible?! The material of the bed drapes was extremely fine. Hence, there was no way to get it sewed and returned in perfect condition.
Sweat poured out of Gu Xijiu's head as she looked at the damage done to the drapes, "I can’t." She closed her eyes and decided to suggest, "However, I have another way to compensate."
"What do you have in mind?" The Lord looked at her and started to judge, "Surrender your body?"
Gu Xijiu was speechless.
The Lord slowly added, "Look at your flat body, I’d make another loss if I accept your submission…"
Gu Xijiu grabbed her fists! What was wrong with her body? Her body was now in good shape! However, she did make a huge mistake, so she decided not to be calculative over this now.
