Love You for the Rest of My Life

Chapter 417 - 418: Could It Really Be Because of Ugliness?

That seemed more like it. Di Xiaxia slightly puckered her red lips, her expression stubborn. If she were going to kiss him, she might as well do it - it’s not like it would cost anything.

Just as she was contemplating this, she heard Di Mingzhe’s voice. It was deep, bland, mellifluous, and had a hint of frostiness to it. "Quit fooling around."

Di Xiaxia looked towards him and was greeted by his seemingly displeased face. His deep eyes held a touch of frost that made her shiver, and she was scared speechless.

But she couldn’t shake the embarrassment. It seemed like she had been rejected by her elder brother again!

Twice now! Was she really so unattractive? Di Xiaxia felt like crying.

After uttering those words, Di Mingzhe was the first to leave the room.

Those left behind were left stunned.

Di Xiaxia quickly lowered her gaze, a confusing and embarrassing feeling taking root in her heart.

Watching Di Mingzhe’s stern back, Di Mingchen could only think, "I kneel before you!"

He refused to eat the meat served directly to his mouth. Di Mingchen shook his head and walked out.

Nangong Jin came over to Di Xiaxia, his eyes lively as he smirked. "Why don’t you kiss me instead, Xiaxia-chan? It would be the same."

Di Xiaxia lifted her gaze and managed to put on a small smile. "Does brother Jin still want your equipment?"

"Hmm, ignore what I just said." Nangong Jin said, flaunting his cheeky charm. He looked discontentedly at Nangong Ran. "Hurry up and come here, we’re going home!"

Nangong Ran shrank her neck in fear. Damn, her third brother was so brutal!

Was it because his love confession was rejected? Geez!

Nangong Ran followed them out, feeling pathetic. As she left the room, she said to Gu Qibao, "Gu Xiaoqi, it’s not that I didn’t want to help them, I just risked my life. Turns out nobody was interested.

It’s like I have prepared for everything, then you told me to sleep it off," internally, Nangong Ran was devastated.

Gu Qibao pouted, "I know. Just go home with brother Jin."

"Alright." Nangong Ran nodded and followed Nangong Jin out the door.

Di Mingjue glanced at Gu Qibao. "Stinky gourd, let’s go home."

With that, he extended his long arm and lifted her sideways into his arms.

Gu Qibao’s face coloured as she tightly wrapped her arms around his neck. Acting coy, she said, "I can walk by myself."

"This way is more efficient." Di Mingjue glanced at her and then spoke to Di Jinxuan, "That’s it, let’s all go home. Arrange someone to send Shi Mo to the hospital."

"Alright." Di Jinxuan nodded.

Di Mingjue carried Gu Qibao out. As he passed by Di Xiaxia, he didn’t stop or slow down, and he didn’t say a word.

He was intentionally being like this. As long as Di Mingzhe and Di Xiaxia’s relationship was unclear, it was difficult for him and Di Xiaxia to speak to each other.

Di Mingjue is like that, when he doesn’t want to, he doesn’t show any consideration whatsoever.

Gu Qibao glanced at Di Xiaxia and waved at her. Di Xiaxia responded with a wave and a smile.

After turning away, Gu Qibao noticed a trace of melancholy flash across Di Xiaxia’s face.

She wasn’t sure whether this melancholy sprang from Di Mingjue or Di Mingzhe.

Instinctively, Gu Qibao tightened her hold on Di Mingjue’s neck.

Having you as my husband is truly wonderful.

"Did you have fun today?" Di Mingjue asked, glancing at her sideways.

"Yes!" Gu Qibao nodded vigorously, planting a light kiss on Di Mingjue’s face. "I had a lot of fun, thank you, hubby."
