Chapter 193: This isn’t suitable
People around them looked on in surprise and envy, staring at his tall and perfect silhouette, hardly able to believe that the third young master of the Di Family was so much like a loyal dog?
And still so adorable!
The third young master mesmerizes more fans in an instant.
Lin Wan, standing amidst the crowd, saw everything. Jealousy gnawed at her to the point where she digs her fingernails into her palm!
How can this man be so excellent, so... adorable?
Wasn’t he so domineering and sharp-tongued in the office before, and now he’s...
Lin Wan’s heart ached. How wonderful it would be if a man like this was hers?
Di Mingjue looked around, but Gu Qibao had run off just like that, out of sight. His whole body’s aura became even colder, and his sharp lips pressed tightly together. His chilling gaze slowly swept through the crowd, searching for her petite figure.
Suddenly, his gaze fixed on a spot. Di Mingjue’s thin lips curled up coldly. The naughty girl, indeed she knew how to seek protection.
At this time, Gu Qibao was tittering about something with Qin Qian and Fang Hao.
Does she think she’s safe with them? The third young Di sneered coldly, not a chance!
"Gu Xiaoqi is jealous." Nangong Ran approached and cautiously said, glancing at Di Mingjue, "Xiaxia was into you all along; she didn’t..."
"I don’t need you to tell me." Di Mingjue arrogantly interrupted Nangong Ran. Joy bubbled up in his heart. He was about to go look for Gu Qibao when Di Xiaxia blocked his way.
She held a glass of water, looking somewhat embarrassed.
Just as Di Mingjue prepared to bypass her, Di Xiaxia called out to him.
"Brother, can we talk?" Di Xiaxia looked at him.
Di Mingjue furrowed his eyebrows. Di Xiaxia extended her hand, but mid-air she pulled back.
"Just a talk, Brother, don’t overthink." Di Xiaxia spoke again.
Di Mingjue’s icy gaze landed on Gu Qibao, noticing her happily talking and gesturing with Qin Qian.
It seemed like she had entirely left what happened just now behind. She hadn’t come back home ever since they got married.
Fine, he will let her off this time and deal with her slowly later on!
Di Mingjue turned his gaze towards Di Xiaxia, nodding coldly. "Say whatever you have to say."
He looked at Di Xiaxia; his voice was even-tempered and unfluctuating; his captivating eyes remained indifferent.
"Brother," Di Xiaxia handed him the glass of water, "Have some water first. Let’s go to the backyard to talk."
"Can’t we talk here?" Di Mingjue took the glass.
Di Xiaxia’s face became a little stern, "Brother, are you still afraid I’d do something to you?"
Without a word, Di Mingjue handed the glass of water to a passing waiter and nodded, "Let’s go then."
Di Xiaxia happily stepped forward, naturally looping her arm through Di Mingjue’s.
Di Mingjue stopped in his tracks and coldly commanded, "Take your hand off me."
His face still seemed as cold and intimidating as before, just like when he used to thrash her as a child, but now it was accentuated with a cool charm that took one’s breath away.
If it were before, Di Xiaxia would no doubt retract her hand out of fear and then follow behind Di Mingjue like a smitten kitten. But this time, she did not.
She smiled, somewhat bitter, stubbornly keeping her hold on Di Mingjue’s arm, she said earnestly, "Brother, you’re married now; what more can I do? I just wish to hold onto you one last time."
Di Mingjue’s cold eyebrows drew together severely. In the end, he unclasped her hand, leaving her with the words, "This is inappropriate."
Di Xiaxia was utterly heartbroken, but she dared not contradict him. This was how her brother was, utterly cold and unfeeling towards people who didn’t matter to him.
Luckily she was his sister, else he would’ve probably pushed her away a long time ago.
Hiding her heartbreak, Di Xiaxia said, "Let’s go to the backyard. I want to talk to you privately."
"Hmm." Di Mingjue nodded. Before leaving, he glanced at Gu Qibao. He saw her having fun with her sisters, completely oblivious to his side.
