Love You for the Rest of My Life

Chapter 564 - 565 - Isn’t this promising then!

After Gu Qibao and Di Jinxuan left, Fang Hao surreptitiously went to Di Xiaxia’s room.

Di Xiaxia was in her room, lost in thought, thinking about the conversation between Di Jinxuan and Gu Qibao earlier, she couldn’t help but feel her face flushing, all flustered and confused.

After entering, Fang Hao immediately noticed Di Xiaxia’s flustered appearance, startled, she quickly sat down next to her, showing concern, "Xiaxia, what’s wrong, are you running a fever?"

As she spoke, she reached out to touch Di Xiaxia’s forehead.

Di Xiaxia snapped out of her trance, quickly shook her head, "No, no, Mom, did you come to see me for something?"

Why did another person come in without knocking, how embarrassing!

"Yes, I do need to talk to you about something," Fang Hao nodded, sat on the edge of the bed, and carefully approached the subject, "Xiaxia, can mom talk to you?"

"Okay." Di Xiaxia nodded, already suspecting that Fang Hao probably wanted to talk about Di Mingzhe.

Having already been bombarded with Di Mingzhe’s matter, Di Xiaxia was already a bit confused.

Fang Hao nodded, "Then Mom will just bring it up directly, Xiaxia, are you unhappy with your elder brother?"

Di Xiaxia froze for a moment, then lowered her eyes, "Mom, why are you asking this?"

Fang Hao silently sighed, took Di Xiaxia’s hand in hers, "Mom knows how it feels, you see your sister-in-law, she always wears a smile on her face, obviously a woman who is deeply loved. But Mom doesn’t see that happiness on your face, instead, it seems like you’re under a lot of stress and feeling awkward, tell me honestly, did Big Brother force you?"

"I ..." Di Xiaxia didn’t know how to start, after a silent pause, she shook her head, "Kind of, but not really."

"What do you mean by ’kind of, but not really’?" Fang Hao was confused.

Di Xiaxia was also confused, she didn’t know how to explain to Fang Hao, after another round of silence she finally said, "Big Brother told me he’s always liked me, always loved me; he asked me to stay with him, give him time to prove it, said he would wait until I loved him too. I asked him if I can refuse, but he said I can’t, he said except for this, he will agree to anything else."

Fang Hao was a little confused at first but eventually figured it out.

After figuring it out, she felt a strong urge to swear, isn’t this overt pressure?

Fang Hao’s eyes darkened slightly, she anxiously inquired, "Then how do you feel about it?"

"I ..." Di Xiaxia was at a loss, after a while she still couldn’t find the right words, finally she gave up, "I don’t know what to think, I’m a bit confused."

Confused? Fang Hao’s eyes lit up, doesn’t this mean there’s hope!

At least she’s not totally rejecting it!

There must be a chance!

"I see." Fang Hao softened her tone, "If it’s not clear now, just let it be, some things are not meant to be figured out in a moment’s time, don’t worry if you can’t figure it out, let nature take its course!"

"Alright." Di Xiaxia nodded, "I understand, Mom."

Fang Hao lightly touched Di Xiaxia’s hair, sighed softly, and started to tend her with sweet words, "Actually Mom has always seen you as my own child, ever since your parents were gone, you’re like my own daughter to me, just like Di Jinxuan and the three brothers, you know?

I always wished to take you as my daughter-in-law, how close and lovely it would be. You also like the third child, I’ve always thought of it this way. But, the world plays tricks on people, don’t take this to heart.

You know how stubborn your third brother can be, no one can control him, I guess now only Gu Qibao can handle him. About this, I do feel a bit guilty."
