BXBX NOVEL Chapter 225 - 225. Don't Worry, Daddy
"What's that?" Gu Yi asked impatiently.
"The man that Fu Xie Lan marries must not have any other woman in his life other than Fu Xie Lan alone, that's all," Emperor Fu Qing retorted.
"Alright," Gu Yi replied immediately. Who can match that girl? Even when compared to all the female inhabitants of the Artland World, none of them could be equal, let alone match her.
Hearing that, the emperor smiled, as did those at the dining table. As for Fu Xie Lan, the girl's expression was normal, not even a sound came out of her mouth after the man answered her.
She expressed her desire not without reason, Fu Xie Lan didn't want that man to continue to touch her body in a state of unclear relationship status.
"Okay, so when are you guys going to do it? Tell me the time. Leave the rest to this old man to take care of it," said the Emperor at length.
"It's up to Xie Lan," Gu Yi replied. No one knows since when the man had gotten used to interacting with humans and those in the room.
"Tomorrow," said Fu Xie Lan immediately, and it made everyone stare at the girl again.
"Are you impatient? Hmm?" Gu Yi teased her as if he didn't care about the whereabouts of Fu Xie Lan's Father.
Hearing the words, the Emperor cleared his throat.
"One more Gu-Gu Yi," stuttered Emperor Fu Qing feeling a little afraid to mention the name of the wizarding man sitting next to him.
"I don't want you to hurt Fu Xie Lan, I-I don't want my daughter to suffer just because you are a wizard," he continued.
"Alright, entrust Fu Xie Lan to me," the man replied immediately.
Another reason why Emperor Fu Qing approved of his daughter marrying someone completely different from them was, that he didn't believe only in his abilities. He couldn't protect his daughter. But it was different if she was with a strong person like the wizard man named Gu Yi.
Ju Xian, who heard Emperor Fu Qing's words laughed a little in his heart. How would the middle-aged man's expression if he knew that the most dangerous person was his daughter?
A female wizard with fairy powers and can quickly regenerate in her body, does not hesitate to slaughter those who seek trouble with her. Ju Xian who was just a man sometimes still thought of getting back at people for his treatment, but not if it was Fu Xie Lan.
"Xie Lan, can't the time be delayed a bit?" asked Emperor Fu Qing.
"You know, the palace hasn't recovered yet. and I don't want your wedding to be held elsewhere," he added. Yes, this is the most beautiful moment for the first and maybe the last time. He doesn't want to carelessly carry out such a happy event.
"For that matter, don't worry, Daddy," said Gu Yi quickly.
"Don't worry about anything, Dad. Leave this to me," she continued with a shining face. Very different from the usual that always seems cold.
Wan Lie and Xue Ning didn't blink, they are rubbing their eyes just to make sure what they saw wasn't wrong. It was the first time Gu Yi had behaved like that to anyone other than Fu Xie Lan. Even the man did not hesitate to call Father to Emperor Fu Qing.
On the other hand, Fu Xie Lan's expression was still the same as before. There are no happy faces. Just flat.
"Is there anything else?" Gu Yi asked. To be honest, in his heart, he never expected that in this life, he who was the ruler of the Artland World would have a Father from the Human Race. The race who was weak with all their stupidity and greed.
Gu Yi, who previously hated the Human race so much, never thought that he would sit down and eat together and even treat them warmly.
Apparently, without him knowing it. Fu Xie Lan gradually melted his frozen and cold heart.
Bodyguard Bai who hid in the shadows made to gape at the unexpected attitude of the ruler.
And it's all because of one thing. That girl, Fu Xie Lan.

"Why only play with your food? Let's eat," said Emperor Fu Qing, since earlier he had noticed Fu Xie Lan was just stirring the food on her plate without touching it at all.
"I'm full, Dad," replied the girl putting the cutlery in her hand. Her appetite is lost.
"Want me to bribe?" Gu Yi said and at that moment he also received a sharp glare from the girl.
"I-I'm kidding. Don't eat then, no, em I mean I won't bribe you if you don't want to." Even the way he spoke was now stuttering.
Again, those who witnessed him were dumbfounded. what's with that cold and strong-looking man? Seeing him act like that made them seem to be witnessing a different figure.
Fu Xie Lan just glared at Gu Yi then turned her gaze to Emperor Fu Qing who seemed to have just finished his meal.
The attitude that Fu Xie Lan displayed was far from the attitude one should have when asking someone else to marry her.
To be honest, it's not that the girl is happy, or not. Deep down in Fu Xie Lan's heart, the girl had even felt extremely embarrassed ever since she said she wanted to get married.
She wanted to run out of the room right then and there when her eyes met Gu Yi's. But, only to cover her feeling, Fu Xie Lan kept quiet and tried her best to be nonchalant after expressing her desire to get married. Yes, everything is just to cover up the feelings she feels.
"So tomorrow is your wedding day?" asked the Emperor again. He didn't know how many times, he kept repeating ask the same thing. Not without reason, it was all because he still felt a little doubtful.
"That's right, Daddy. Don't worry about anything, leave everything to me," Gu Yi said again reassuringly.
Meanwhile, Fu Xie Lan only snorted when she heard the two men's conversation. The response was very different from the one she felt. Whereas at this time, her heart was beating wildly.
Somehow and since when her heart is always only warmed up when it came to Gu Yi. She always felt comfortable and safe when she was around him. However, none of her expressions showed clearly what she was feeling.
Just showing her usual flat expression, as if everything that happened before her eyes had no meaning at all.
