Although she wanted to be next to him, Gu Xijiu kept a slight distance away from Di Fuyi because she did not want to disrupt his sleep. She then looked around and realized the pavilion was installed with light pink drapes; it could block out any excessive light and also give them some privacy. He was such a thoughtful person!
She glimpsed at him as she lied down beside him. She realized she could not look at him enough no matter how long she fixed her eyes on him. How good would it be if time could stop here at this very moment? Gu Xijiu felt like tearing again upon reflecting on how much he had sacrificed for her. Thus, she quickly got up and took a deep breath.
Di Fuyi did not have much time left. It was obvious that he would not want to see his closest companions sad during this time. It was then that Gu Xijiu realized that extending his life was not the only mission she had; she must reduce his burdens as well.
