Chapter 218: I’m So Afraid of Losing You
He walked slowly toward the bed and sat down, brushing away the tears in her eyes. He gazed at her seriously, remaining quiet for a while before asking hoarsely, "Did your husband upset you that much?"
This question made Gu Qibao even more sad. Wiping her tears away, she looked at Di Mingjue with bloodshot eyes, choking back sobs, and nodded honestly and earnestly, answering, "Yes."
Di Mingjue felt a pang in his chest, but he still patiently asked her, "Why?"
"Because you like Di Xiaxia." Gu Qibao pouted, tears streaming down her face, looking pitifully at him.
Good grief, Di Mingjue wanted to punch someone right then and there. When in the world did he ever like Di Xiaxia?!
"Baby..." Di Mingjue looked distressed and helpless, "I swear, I really don’t like her!"
"I don’t believe you!" Gu Qibao stared at him wide-eyed, accusing him, "If you don’t like her, why are you so kind to her? If she asks you to go to the backyard, you go. If she wants to hug you, you let her. Don’t you realize you are a married man? You even let other women hug you!"
"Aren’t you also letting someone else hug you?" Di Mingjue got angry when this was brought up, wishing he could cut off Jin Dafu’s hands.
"Yeah." Gu Qibao responded, "You’re as angry as I was when someone else hugged you!"
Di Mingjue was stunned, feeling slightly guilty when he thought about it that way.
After a while of silence he said, "Alright then, we’re even."
"I don’t want to be even with you!" Gu Qibao turned her head, defiantly wiping her tears away, "Di Mingjue, do you know how much I hate you!"
"Really?" Di Mingjue’s face darkened, he asked in a deep voice.
"Yes." Gu Qibao nodded, head held high.
Di Mingjue didn’t speak. After a while of silence, he stood up, turned around, and started to walk out.
He was just asking for trouble, not sleeping till midnight and going over only to be scolded.
You’re good, Gu Xiaoqi! If I still pay attention to you, I’m a fool!
Watching his retreating figure, Gu Qibao’s tears kept falling. As she wiped them away, she blurted out, "I really hate you! You’re so harsh to Bo Chengxin, but you treat Di Xiaxia so kindly. At least, she got to hug you. You promised on our wedding day, to devote yourself to me for life! You also said before when other women want to see you, I should supervise. "
You said I am now the most powerful person in the Empire! You also said you wouldn’t have any feelings for any other woman besides me! You even said for those who try to steal you from me, if one comes, I’ll kill one, if a pair comes, I’ll kill a pair! Have you forgotten everything, Di Mingjue? Have you forgotten everything! If you haven’t, then you have feelings for Di Xiaxia."
Gu Qibao was shouting with teary eyes at his retreating figure. She sounded like a stubborn child trying to affirm something, venting out all her emotions from these past few days.
Di Mingjue, standing tall at the doorway, froze with his hand on the doorknob.
Suddenly, he turned around, with a chilling face and a crazy look in his eyes.
All of a sudden, he strode over to her. Gu Qibao, taken aback, tried to recoil.
But the next instant, he was already close to her. He reached for her head, saying, "Baby, stop talking."
Before Gu Qibao could react, he kissed her passionately.
Listening to her accusations, he couldn’t help feeling upset.
Turns out, his baby cared so much about him, remembering every word he ever said. Every single word was carved into her heart!
