Love You for the Rest of My Life

Chapter 306 - 307: Won’t Dare Next Time

"Well, I..." Di Xiaxia was at a loss for words, and she didn’t know how to respond when her parents interrupted her.

She looked utterly foolish!

At that moment, Di Jinxuan came bounding over with a glass of milk and sat across from her, her face propped up on her hands. Di Xiaxia’s state looked rather odd!

One of her legs was wrapped up as if she was a mummy.

Di Xiaxia sat on the sofa, her eyes blinking innocently. "Sis, you’re really up-to-date with your cosplay."

Di Xiaxia rolled her eyes, too weary for retort.

"Cosplay?" Fang Hao blinked her eyes, puzzled, as she looked at Di Jinxuan. "Is this what’s popular now? Which character is this cosplay meant to depict?"

"I don’t know." Di Jinxuan shrugged. "Better ask our dear Sis."

Di Xiaxia, at a loss for words, could only muster a forced smile, finally managing to say, "This is not cosplay. I had an accident while skateboarding and fell off a cliff. This is the result! It’s not too serious, just a broken lower leg."

Fang Hao, Di Yan, and Di Jinxuan’s mouths instantly dropped open. Skateboarding? Fell off a cliff? Broken leg!

"Di Xiaxia!" Fang Hao roared instantly.

But more than anger, she felt anguish.

In a fit of excessive emotion, Fang Hao grabbed Di Xiaxia’s ears and started to yell, "How many times have I told you, girls should not play such dangerous sports! Have you been treating my advice like wind passing by"

Di Xiaxia was close to tears, her face full of distress, "I know, I know, Mom. I won’t dare next time."

Indeed, she wouldn’t dare, sob, sob!

"Alright, alright." Di Yan hurriedly tried to placate Fang Hao, "The injury isn’t severe. It’s just a broken leg."

Fang Hao: "....."

"A broken leg, you say it so lightly." Fang Hao glared at Di Yan. "It was good luck this time. What if she wasn’t so lucky? What if she had died? Xiaxia is our only child..."

Fang Hao couldn’t help but weep as she spoke.

The bond cultivated over twenty years of living together cannot be replicated.

Seeing this, Di Xiaxia’s heart ached, she quickly said, "Mom, I’m wrong. Please don’t be angry or sad anymore."

With that said, Di Xiaxia herself started crying. Seeing this, Fang Hao’s heart softened.

But her attitude was still harsh, and she scolded some more.

Di Xiaxia didn’t rebut, but her face showed her misery.

Di Jinxuan smacked her lips, giving her a look of pure sympathy.

When Di Mingzhe came down, he saw Di Xiaxia sitting on the sofa, being berated by Fang Hao.

Actually, this was their usual pattern of interaction. Di Xiaxia, being a wild child with a thick skin, prone to bouts of craziness, had been up to her antics for more than twenty years.

He was used to it. When Di Xiaxia was younger, she was always causing trouble and Fang Hao never hesitated to scold her.

But why did he feel annoyed seeing Fang Hao scold Di Xiaxia now?

"Enough." Di Mingzhe descended the stairs, and with a bit of annoyance, said calmly, "What’s done is done, stop scolding her."

Fang Hao blinked, almost saying out loud, "What’s it to you if I scold Di Xiaxia?"

When she realized who was speaking, she was taken aback. Wasn’t Di Mingchen usually the one pleading on Di Xiaxia’s behalf?

When did Di Mingzhe start caring about Di Xiaxia?

Fang Hao found this to be quite mysterious.

Di Xiaxia instinctively turned her head and found Di Mingzhe standing behind her. And suddenly, she was crying again.

Di Mingzhe had actually spoken up for her?

Fang Hao shrugged, "Okay, okay, I was just speaking my mind. From now on, you’re not allowed to engage in those activities again. This time, I’ll let it slide, Di Xiaxia. Ensure there’s no next time."

"Definitely not, I won’t dare!" Di Xiaxia quickly grabbed her ear, "Mom, there really won’t be a next time."

As if!

She’s definitely going to do it secretly!

"Hmm." Fang Hao raised her eyebrows, "Now that’s more like it. Okay, I’m going to see if dinner is ready."

Fang Hao walked away arm in arm with Di Yan. Di Jinxuan, still sitting on the sofa, blinked her eyes, focusing on Di Mingzhe with a smile on her face, teased, "Something’s going on!"
