Chapter 345 - 346: Big Brother, You Don’t Like Me, Do You?
Di Xiaxia’s eyes widened. Holy cow, this is so freaking embarrassing!
She desperately wished Mingzhe had not seen it!
But Di Mingzhe was not blind. His sharp gaze suddenly focused.
Di Xiaxia hurriedly tried to reach out to grab it, but Mingzhe was faster.
He lifted the item with his slender, well-defined fingers, appearing slightly confused.
Mingzhe’s eyes darkened, he looked at Di Xiaxia languidly, with a hint of depth in his raised eyebrows.
Di Xiaxia wanted to die of embarrassment, this was definitely the most embarrassing day of her twenty-something years!
Di Xiaxia quickly snatched it back, hid it under her body, and laughed awkwardly, "Brother, don’t mind."
"Give it to me." Mingzhe extended his hand, his tone as decisive as ever.
Di Xiaxia shuddered. Damn.
"There’s nothing interesting to see." Di Xiaxia’s face was burning, she really wished she could turn back time to avoid this embarrassing day.
Seeing her reluctance, Mingzhe pursed his lips, seemed to sigh lightly, "Such items should be properly stored away. What are you doing with it under your butt?"
Di Xiaxia: "..."
"I... I... was sitting on it... to warm it... so it’s comfortable to wear!" Di Xiaxia stuttered.
She would rather die than hand it over!
Mingzhe looked at her for a moment, then dropped a sentence, "Get some rest." And turned to leave, but Di Xiaxia, in a burst of impulse, grabbed his hand.
Mingzhe’s footsteps halted abruptly, he instinctively held her small hand tightly.
Turning his head slowly, a trace of tenderness flashed in his dark and deep pupils. He revealed a faint smile, "Yes?"
Di Xiaxia had a mournful look on her face, tears welled up in her eyes. She begged, "Brother, let’s be real, your decision is unrealistic. I can’t learn translation in just one year, let alone get into the Ministry of Foreign Affairs!"
"It’s okay. I can teach you." Mingzhe held her hand tightly. Seeing her teary face, he continued calmly, "You just need to change your major. You don’t have to go to school. Learn from me. When it’s done, just pick up your graduation certificate."
Di Xiaxia looked at him in shock, shaking her head quickly, "No, I’ll go to school!"
If she goes to school, she might have a slight chance of survival. If she stays with him to learn to be a translator, she will definitely die of embarrassment!
Saying this, Di Xiaxia loosened her grip on Mingzhe’s hand, seemingly hopeless.
Mingzhe pursed his thin lips, looking at her without saying a word.
"Brother, you’re not... falling in love with me, right?" Di Xiaxia suddenly looked up and blurted out the question.
She didn’t want to ask, but what’s the deal with her brother always seeming to lure her in!
It made her feel uneasy!
A frown formed on Mingzhe’s face. It felt like a strong blow to his heart, painful, but somehow pleasantly surprising.
He slowly curved his lips, his deep and dark eyes revealed no emotion. He responded calmly, "You’re overthinking."
Di Xiaxia looked at him but it seemed like she was relieved, yet suddenly felt a bit awkward. Why does her brother’s expression imply ’Xiaxia, you’re so narcissistic’ and it is so in-your-face?
Luckily, she quickly nodded, "I’m going to sleep."
Having said that, she pulled up the covers over herself. Damn, she was so embarrassed today, she should hide from everyone for at least a month!
