Gu Xijiu listened to his story with annoyance, "Thirteen years ago, I met your mother. You were as skinny as a monkey was. Your mother asked me to foresee your fortune. At that time I was in a good mood and agreed to your mother's request. I calculated that you could not live to the age of 15, as there was a huge disaster coming your way. Only a good marriage with a respectable bridegroom could prevent the disaster. But at that time you were married to Rong Yan. His ability and status were only very average; unable to break the disaster. Your mother pleaded me for a solution, and I owed her a favor, therefore I suggested to marry you… But with the following terms - first, your marriage with Rong Yan is to be dismissed. Second, you could escape the Dark Forest unscathed before you turned 15…"
Preposterous! It was preposterous!
Gu Xijiu looked at him as if he was an alien. How come people like him would give up their own marriage so easily? How laughable!
