Love You for the Rest of My Life

Chapter 482 - 483: Planning to Work All Night

At this moment, in the bathroom, Di Mingzhe was also uneasy. His mind was filled with numerous thoughts and hypotheses, the same as Di Xiaxia.

But these hypotheses ultimately came to nothing.

Outside, his girl, the girl he had loved for twenty years, was lying in bed. He was truly afraid he wouldn’t be able to control himself.

So yes, this very moment, he was taking a cold shower!

Right now, Di Xiaxia was sitting on the bed, wrapped in a blanket. Even though she was listening to music, she was bored. Not just bored, but also hot!

It was the middle of summer, and even though the air conditioning was on in the room, tightly wrapping herself in a blanket was still stiflingly hot.

But she wasn’t in the mood to care about the heat right now. Instead, she was seriously considering another issue.

The bed was indeed very large but there was only one thin blanket. Did that mean she was going to have to share the blanket with her brother later?

How awkward would that be!

The more she mulled it over, the hotter she felt. Di Xiaxia sneaked a glance at the bathroom and found it quiet.

Figuring that her brother was taking a shower anyway, maybe she should air herself out a little first!

With that thought, Di Xiaxia decisively pulled off the blanket, deciding to cool off first.

She didn’t believe that her brother would mess with her.

Since she had already fallen into the trap he dug and couldn’t climb out, she might as well just take one step at a time and see what he was up to!

With that thought, Di Xiaxia calmed down. After pulling off the blanket, she quickly began to fan her face. She was absolutely boiling.

When Di Mingzhe came out, he saw that the blanket had been thrown aside. She was sitting on the bed muttering something, fanning her face. Her cheeks seemed flushed.

A spark flitted across Di Mingzhe’s dark eyes as he slowly approached.

Of course, Di Xiaxia also noticed Di Mingzhe coming out. She quickly grabbed the blanket and covered herself, chuckling awkwardly, "Brother, you finished showering."

Thankfully, Di Mingzhe was dressed decently. Although it was casual home wear—a T-shirt and sweatpants—at least he hadn’t come out exposed!

"Mhm." Di Mingzhe nodded, reaching up to dry his hair.

Di Xiaxia turned her gaze and pretended to watch TV seriously.

Di Mingzhe dried his hair, took a glass of pure water, and went over to the desk to work, as if he had no intention of going to bed to sleep.

After being anxious for a while, Di Xiaxia was finally relieved. Was her brother planning to work all night?

That would be just perfect!

Because she had been tense for a while, she suddenly felt tired as she relaxed. Di Xiaxia’s eyes began to droop.

But she didn’t dare to fall asleep completely, so her head bobbed up and down like a pecking chicken; every time she nodded off, she seemed to jolt awake for a bit, looking around alertly before starting to nod off again.

She didn’t know how much time had passed when she was about to fall asleep. Suddenly, she felt the bed dipping beside her.

Di Xiaxia’s eyes snapped open to find Di Mingzhe removing her blanket.

"Brother, what are you doing?" Di Xiaxia immediately perked up, involuntarily retreating a little.

Di Mingzhe frowned slightly. All he’d done was watch her fall asleep and, worried she’d get cold, he’d wanted to cover her with the blanket. But this was her reaction.

As if she was facing a formidable enemy.
