Love You for the Rest of My Life

Chapter 961: Waiting for Complete Disgrace

Suddenly, her heart also clenched, "Not willing?"

Di Mingchen raised his lips, his gaze cold as he looked at Shen Yilan, "Miss, you might be a bit delusional, she’s my younger sister by marriage, and I’m Di Mingjue’s elder brother."

Shen Yilan’s face paled completely upon hearing this, filled with both shock and shame.

For a moment, she had no idea what to say.

All she could do was to bow her head hastily, murmur an apology, and then run away.

Di Mingchen couldn’t help but laugh, "This woman really does have some issues. Coveting my brother to the point of madness, such shamelessness, full of malicious schemes, it’s quite an eye-opener for me."

Sitting in the car, Di Mingjue held Gu Qibao tightly in his arms and listened to her saying that Shen Yilan had stepped on her dress, which immediately infuriated him.

His face turned ugly as he scolded, "Why didn’t you say anything earlier? Someone bullied you and almost caused you to fall, but you kept it to yourself?"

Di Mingjue was so agitated talking about it, as if he was the one who had been bullied.

"There were too many people just now; it was a state banquet," Gu Qibao said weakly. "The President and the Officials were all there, do you really want them to watch us two women fight over such petty scheming? That would be the real loss of face."

Moreover, she absolutely trusted Di Mingjue, whether she confronted the issue right then or told Di Mingjue afterwards, he would definitely listen to her and stand by her side.

And indeed, such an occasion was not the right place for a personal dispute. Making a scene would have been embarrassing for both of them as a couple.

Because Shen Yilan would certainly have denied everything to the death, and no one else had seen what happened.

Then, if Shen Yilan turned it around and accused her of wronging her, the situation would have escalated.

In such a scenario, Di Mingjue would have been in a difficult position, as without concrete evidence, there was nothing he could do but swallow the slight for now. After all, as long as Di Mingjue believed her, that was all that mattered.

On hearing Gu Qibao’s words, Di Mingjue paused, feeling an overflow of emotions, proud that his precious one had grown up, learned to be responsible, and could even consider the bigger picture.

He knew the grievances she had suffered were for his sake.

Just as he was about to speak, Di Mingchen’s call came in, his tone laden with mockery, "Younger brother, I just had a woman talk to me about cooperation, trying to split you and Gu Qibao up. She even thought I was enamored with your little Qibao."

Upon hearing it, Di Mingjue immediately knew who it was, and his revulsion reached new heights.

"I know who it is," he answered coldly, and then hung up the phone.

This witless woman truly disgusted him to the core.

Gu Qibao still seemed a bit frightened in his arms, and Di Mingjue’s heart ached for her, so he kissed her deeply, comforting her. Then he took out his phone and dialed Lan Feng.

His voice, colder than ever, commanded, "Help me look into a woman named Shen Yilan, all her records for the past few years. She was once with me at the architectural college. I want to know everything, in great detail."

"Yes," Lan Feng responded.

Di Mingjue hung up the phone, and Gu Qibao, curious, asked, "Hubby, why are you investigating her?"

Di Mingjue simply tugged at the corner of his lips coldly, "The audacity of those who dare to touch my people has grown fat."

Shen Yilan, huh? Dare to touch my wife within the Empire, and I’ll show you what it means to wish you were dead.

Want to get a good score in the Rubik’s Cube competition? Hah, just wait for your downfall.

In just a few simple sentences, his figure exuded an air of stern ruthlessness, and by his demeanor alone, Gu Qibao knew that Shen Yilan was doomed.

Gu Qibao was somewhat stunned, but quickly put on a sweet smile, hugging his neck and snuggling into his embrace.
