Chapter 209: Because I Am Your Husband
The next day,
When Gu Qibao woke up, she was startled to see Di Mingjue. His eyes bloodshot, he was sitting on the bed as if he hadn’t slept all night.
His features were still handsome, but there was a coldness to his sharp jawline. His stubble looked weary and his bloodshot eyes were heartrending.
A pang of pain shot through Gu Qibao’s heart and she quietly turned her head away, lowering her gaze, "I need to go to school."
Only then did Di Mingjue look at her, his eyebrows furrowed. He grunted but didn’t say anything.
Gu Qibao went to school, but she was not happy. She walked absentmindedly alone on the sports field, still feeling down.
She knew that Di Mingjue’s attitude had improved a lot, but he would not apologize to her.
It felt like he had done something wrong, but instead of apologizing, he arrogantly discussed it with her, arrogantly asking her to not make a fuss, asking for her forgiveness.
Shouldn’t one apologize and repent when they have done something wrong?
That is really what bothers her.
Di Mingjue also felt distressed.
He watched Gu Qibao from a quiet corner, seeing her wandering aimlessly on the sports field, and he felt hurt.
He wanted to approach her and say something, but didn’t know what to say.
Apologizing, repenting, he is not good at that. He isn’t good at humbly asking for forgiveness, isn’t good at expressing his thoughts directly.
He knew he was wrong, but he, at least for the moment, couldn’t swallow his pride.
His attitude was already at its humblest, he swore he had never been this humble in his life.
Such a headache.
Di Mingjue watched her, his thin lips tightly pursed, thinking about what he should do.
Walking on the sports field, Gu Qibao leaned back and looked at the sky, murmuring to herself, "Is it really that hard to say sorry to me?"
Just as she finished her sentence, a male voice suddenly exclaimed, full of surprise, "Bao Bao!"
Gu Qibao was initially delighted, but frowned instantly. This voice wasn’t Di Mingjue’s.
She turned her head and saw Jin Dafu standing behind her, looking at her with a joyous expression.
Gu Qibao forced a smile, "Jin Dafu."
"Where have you been, Bao Bao? I’ve missed you so much!" The boy was so passionate that he lunged at her and hugged her tightly, "Gu Qibao, I really missed you."
Gu Qibao was caught off guard and quickly pushed him away, "What are you doing, Jin Dafu? Let go of me!"
"I don’t want to!" Jin Dafu, sounding like a stubborn child, replied. "I missed you so much, where did you go? Why did you drop out of school?"
"I..." Gu Qibao’s face flushed, "Let go of me first!"
She was trying to push Jin Dafu away, but to no avail.
Just when she was starting to get anxious, a figure rushed over and pulled Jin Dafu off of her.
Gu Qibao’s eyes widened. Di Mingjue?
Before she could react, Di Mingjue pounded Jin Dafu to the ground with a few quick punches and kicks, growling arrogantly, "You dare to touch my woman, you’re looking for death!"
Gu Qibao: "..."
"Why are you hitting him!" Gu Qibao rushed over to help Jin Dafu up, Jin Dafu grimacing in pain with his bruised face.
"Let’s go to the clinic," Gu Qibao angrily guided Jin Dafu away.
"Gu Xiaoqi, stop!" Di Mingjue ordered coldly.
Gu Qibao turned around, "On what grounds do I have to obey your orders?"
"Because I’m your husband!" Di Mingjue was exasperated and strode forward to separate the two, his icy façade as intimidating as that of Shura.
"Why did you hit him?" Gu Qibao glared indignantly at Di Mingjue.
"Because he hugged you!" Di Mingjue glared at Jin Dafu, his thin lips curling up in a cold smirk. "Hitting him was me being lenient."
He refrained from injuring Jin Dafu further, which showed his remarkably good restraint.
"What a joke." Gu Qibao lifted her chin proudly. "So only you are allowed to hug others while I can’t."
Di Mingjue was taken aback.
Gu Qibao turned and reached out to take Jin Dafu’s hand. "Let’s go and ignore him."
