Chapter 21: Dealing with Your Uncle
Di Mingjue left, and after grimacing for quite a while due to the pain, Gu Qibao finally comprehended that she had won a battle, having actually succeeded in silencing Di Mingjue!
Yay! Gu Qibao couldn’t help but cheer. Her recent gloominess was instantly swept away. So even Di Mingjue can have his moments of defeat?
You want to compete with me on grades? If you have the guts, let’s compete on who has the worst grades!
Just when Gu Qibao was standing, hands on her small waist, reveling in her triumph, the math teacher’s somber voice sounded behind her, "Gu Qibao, copy the self-study paper ten times!"
"Uh...." Gu Qibao turned around and looked at the math teacher, with a bitter look on her face. She felt that ever since she had provoked Di Mingjue, nothing had been going her way. She was really unlucky.
"Gu Qibao," came Di Mingjue’s voice once more, startling her. She swiftly lifted her head and saw he hadn’t gone far and was just a short distance away from her.
At that moment, he turned around. His hands were tucked into his trouser pockets and he exuded an aura of aloof glamour and ruggedness.
His pitch-black shirt perfectly accentuated his physique, and teamed up with his white slim-fit pants, white shoes, and his exposed ankles which radiated a touch of sensuality, his perfect long legs left an impression, to say the least.
Under the sunlight, he had an alluring aura surrounding him. His profound gaze, straight nose, flawless lips, a breathtaking prince...
Gu Qibao couldn’t help but stare.
"Let’s date." He advanced a few steps and then abruptly spoke. His deep eyes flashed like an ancient well, rendering her stunned with their allure.
His voice was neither loud nor slight, just right for Gu Qibao to hear it. But to Gu Qibao, it was like a roar, causing her mind to buzz, leaving her stupefied.
What was Di Mingjue saying? Did he just suggest they date? Did she hear it right?
Gu Qibao began to doubt herself. Did her ears play tricks on her? Why was she hearing such an improbable phrase?
It must be an illusion! An illusion! Di Mingjue has driven her into illusions!
After saying those words, Di Mingjue himself was surprised. Dating Gu Qibao was certainly not feasible. Sleeping with her seemed a more plausible option.
He watched as her grape-like eyes widened in blank astonishment, followed by her vigorously shaking her head, muttering to herself and finally lowering her head. In the end, she turned around, presenting her back to him.
With her back faced to him, Gu Qibao’s heart pounded wildly. She had never expected Di Mingjue would suddenly say such words to her!
Let’s date! Does he understand what that implies?
It signifies... Gu Qibao stomped her feet in anxiety. She could not exactly pinpoint what it meant, but her gut told her that it was a serious matter.
How could he utter such words without thinking? Did something hit him on the head? He wants to date her of all people!
Isn’t he taken? Where does this leave Bo Chengxin?
Did they break up? Even if they did! He can’t immediately propose dating her! What does he think of her? A spare tire?
𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦
She would never agree! No, whether she’s a spare tire or not, she wouldn’t agree because she doesn’t fancy him!
This is what she planned to tell Brother Chenghe.
Besides, Di Mingjue is undoubtedly a top-grade freak, who bullied her merciless and always suppressed her, controlling her every move, forbidding her from doing this or that, leaving no room for personal freedom.
She didn’t want to lead that kind of life unless she was a complete idiot.
She turned around, intending to send him five words, "Date your grandpa!"
But then...
