Chapter 136: Today, you will be the center of attention
He was so anxious, fixedly watching Gu Qibao, his heart pounding loudly.
"Aren’t you happy that I agreed to marry you?" Gu Qibao pouted, "Hey, troublemaker, put on a nice smile. Are we at a funeral or something?"
Di Mingjue’s brows furrowed, what on earth was this girl playing at?
"I don’t smile," Di Mingjue mood was still foul, primarily because he had been put off by Gu Qibao beforehand.
Gu Qibao paused her steps, stopping in the middle of the carpet. She suddenly turned around, her gaze meeting Di Mingjue’s.
Before Di Mingjue could react, she suddenly reached out and clasped her arms around his neck.
Di Mingjue was taken aback but quickly recovered, encircling her waist with his arm, he coldly asked, "Gu Qibao, what the hell are you trying to do?"
"Mr. Di, you’re a man right?" Gu Qibao began, her voice filled with teasing.
"Obviously, I am a man." Di Mingjue retorted curtly. His heart was feeling oddly uneasy. The dramatic change in Gu Qibao’s behavior was throwing him off and making him nervous. She was indeed full of surprises!
Despite his bad attitude, Gu Qibao found herself incredibly drawn him at that moment.
"Listen carefully," Gu Qibao began, "Let’s put everything that happened before behind us. I’m certain that I want to marry you and live with you. I’m even looking forward to it. So please prepare yourself and let’s start our new life together."
This comment surprised Di Mingjue. However, it all started to make sense to him now. Heaven or hell?
Damn, he had been so worried that Gu Qibao was going to cause a huge commotion.
Thankfully, it turned out well. Despite her wacky antics and erratic behaviour, this crazy girl managed to deeply touch his heart.
With a devil-may-care smile, Di Mingjue laughed, surprising everyone present.
No one had expected the usually grim-faced third son of the Di family to burst into laughter at the wedding ceremony. And he was even laughing so freely!
Was it because Gu Qibao had spoken few words to him that he laughed in such a carefree manner?
His smile was so charming that it shattered many young women’s hearts.
Gu Qibao was also stunned. Di Mingjue was incredibly handsome indeed! Thankfully, she had eventually chosen paradise over hell!
"This is the type of woman I’ve been waiting for," Di Mingjue said, lifting her chin and forcefully landing a kiss on her lips.
He then turned around and gently patted her bottom, "Stand straight for me. Today, you’ll be the center of attention."
Gu Qibao straightened herself up and proudly tipped her chin upward, "Yes, my dear Mr. Di."
Everyone watched in shock as these two publicly displayed their affection. They couldn’t believe what they were seeing.
Di Jinxuan excitedly tugged at Nangong Ran’s arm, "What’s going on? Has she finally come to her senses?"
Nangong Ran enthusiastically nodded, "That heaven and hell talk. Whatever, she’s agreed to marry your third brother and seems to have fallen for him."
"Heaven one moment, hell the next?" Di Jinxuan excitedly raised her eyebrows, "Thank heavens she came to her senses! I was scared to death."
"It’s fine now, no need to be afraid," Nangong Ran reassured, trembling with excitement and almost bursting into tears.
"Yes, yes, yes." Di Jinxuan repeated, her tears flowing freely. It had not been easy!
The Gu and Di families had watched the whole scene in shock, unable to react. Finally, when what they had seen sank in, their tears flowed freely. At last, the two were to be married!
Under the scrutiny of everyone present, the pair took their place on the wedding stage, looking absolutely perfect together.
Gu Qibao smiled sweetly, absolutely radiant. Di Mingjue too, was no longer grim-faced. His cold and aloof demeanor had softened, revealing a subtle warmth. On closer inspection, you could see that his lips had curled into a gentle arc.
Could it be that the perennial ice block was melting?
