Chapter 187: All Top-grade!
"Third Brother, you’re rubbing salt in my wounds!" Di Xiaxia fainted dramatically into Di Mingchen’s arms, resentfully saying to him, "Second Brother, didn’t you promise me you’d drug Third Brother and throw him into my bed?"
Gu Qibao: "..."
Di Mingjue scowled, his voice icy, "Di Xiaxia!"
This girl was getting more and more outrageous.
Hearing the coldness in Di Mingjue’s voice, Di Xiaxia immediately came to her senses. She quickly sprang up from Di Mingchen’s arms and grabbed Gu Qibao’s hand, "Sister-in-law, hello, hello."
Gu Qibao looked on, somewhat speechless as she watched Di Xiaxia. Was this really such a gem?
Even more capable of creating a scene than she was!
Di Mingjue gently patted Gu Qibao’s head, "There, there, just get used to it. She has intermittent bouts of craziness. Just ignore her."
"Oh." Gu Qibao nodded, though she still felt a little bit depressed in her heart.
Di Mingjue’s attitude towards Di Xiaxia was definitely different.
But what could she do about it? Di Xiaxia was his sister, having grown up in the Di Family for more than a decade. How could she complain?
On the other hand, at least Di Xiaxia was better than Bo Chengxin, right?
But not by much. Di Xiaxia might be quite cute, but there was a bit of annoyance in Gu Qibao’s heart nonetheless.
Then, Di Jinxuan also came out, just as Nangong Jin’s group arrived.
Nangong Ran guffawed when he saw Gu Qibao, "Well done, Gu Qibao, actually looking like a decent human being today."
Gu Qibao rolled her eyes in exasperation. What, she didn’t look like a decent human being on other days?
As soon as Nangong Jin put his gift in the hands of a servant, he teased Di Mingchen, "You haven’t run away yet?"
Di Mingchen replied, "Scared? Not me!"
Nangong Jin smirked maliciously, "Why don’t you come and take refuge with me?"
Watching the two handsome men arm in arm, Di Xiaxia nudged Di Jinxuan, "Is Second Brother planning to play for the other team?"
Di Jinxuan laughed so hard his eyes crinkled and made a snide remark, "Was he ever even on our team, to begin with..."
Di Xiaxia reflected seriously, then said, "Actually, I think it would be more interesting if Second Brother swayed the Eldest Brother. Nangong Jin is too promiscuous."
"Isn’t that the truth." Di Jinxuan pouted in agreement.
Finally, Di Mingjue couldn’t hold back and facepalmed. God, Di Mingzhe and Di Mingchen were real brothers, okay!
Di Mingjue shot the two girls a cold look and said icily, "Eldest Brother is right behind you."
Di Xiaxia: "..."
Di Jinxuan: "..."
Di Xiaxia grumbled, "Third Brother, it’s one thing for you to abandon me, but to scare me is another."
Di Mingjue sneered, then brazenly walked away with his arm around Gu Qibao.
Di Xiaxia turned back in displeasure, "My Third Brother..."
She turned green as she began her sentence.
Di Mingzhe faced her with a poker-face, "Di Xiaxia, we need to talk."
Curious, Gu Qibao turned back to see Di Xiaxia faithfully trailing behind Di Mingzhe, not daring to make a sound and acting in the meekest manner possible.
Gu Qibao was instantly curious. Di Xiaxia liked Di Mingjue, but why did it seem like there was something going on between Di Xiaxia and Di Mingzhe?
There’s no denying, though, that the Di family’s siblings were top-grade.
The eldest was poker-faced, the second was an all-rounder, the third acted like a lord, the fourth was a clown, and the fifth was the king of comebacks...
Joking aside, Fang Hao’s birthday was grand indeed, and it was a traditional Chinese celebration held in his honor.
Everyone would bring their gifts to Fang Hao in person to give their well-wishes, and then Fang Hao would hand out red envelopes.
The various siblings would also serve tea to Fang Hao.
Fang Hao was dressed very dignified today, sitting there radiantly with his own unique aura.
Once the formalities were over, everyone began to enjoy themselves.
Representatives from the Di, Nangong, and Gu families, as well as other prestigious and influential families and individuals from politics, business, and the military were present.
The older generation had their own fun while the younger ones mingled mostly within their own few families.
The four major families were intimately acquainted and familiar with each other, unlike the smaller families who were not as close.
However, there were still a fair number of people who wanted to associate themselves with the four major families.
