Chapter 22 Don’t Do This Kind of Thing Again
Upon turning around, there was no trace of Di Mingjue anywhere. The view before her was so neat that not a single leaf could be seen.
Gu Qibao scratched her head in confusion, could it be that she had been hallucinating?
Good heavens, how badly must Di Mingjue have oppressed her for her to have such an illusion!
Gu Qibao couldn’t help but suspect that there was something wrong with the medicine Gu Chun had given her, causing her to be mentally disoriented and even hallucinate that Di Mingjue was confessing to her?
Eternity, send down a lightning bolt, strike her dead this time, she doesn’t want to live this kind of life anymore!
Several times she intended to talk to Nangong Ran, but every time she thought about the situation that he caused, she almost choked him to death. She held back a few times, and in the end, let him go.
If it wasn’t for the fact that she had grown up with Nangong Ran, she swore she would beat him up, and it would be a thorough one at that.
As a student who didn’t excel in studies, her days at school were rather dull. Not being able to talk to Nangong Ran made it even duller.
In the afternoon, Nangong Ran crept into the school director’s office.
"Sister Yao, is the Duke still here?" Nangong Ran asked upon finding Gu Yao.
"Yes, he’s in the office." Gu Yao pointed, "You looking for him?"
"Yes." Nangong Ran nodded.
He fumbled into the office. Nangong Ran was a bit scared of Di Mingjue. If Di Mingjue found out that he was responsible for this, would he kill him on the spot?
He suddenly felt that coming here was a mistake. Maybe he should sneak away. Just as he was about to turn and flee, he saw Di Mingjue’s cool gaze, "Any issue?"
"No, nothing!" Nangong Ran quickly shook his head and made to leave.
"Did you drug the wine?" Di Mingjue’s frosty voice echoed from behind, causing Nangong Ran’s steps to falter.
Considering Nangong Ran and Gu Qibao’s alliance, he must have been the one behind this.
"Yes." Nangong Ran knew he couldn’t hide it. He turned around with his head lowered and actively admitted his wrongdoing. His eyes cautiously watched Di Mingjue, he seemed to be waiting for him to get angry.
Surprisingly, he didn’t get angry, but after a moment’s silence, he said coldly, "Don’t do such things again."
"Definitely not!" Nangong ran quickly waved his hands, "I absolutely won’t dare to do it again!"
"Mm." Di Mingjue acknowledged him and then ignored him.
Nangong Ran was slightly puzzled, did he just see Di Mingjue smile? What was he laughing at? Was he happy? Nangong Ran was suddenly intrigued.
"Why are you still here?" Di Mingjue suddenly lifted his gaze towards Nangong Ran. The look in his dark, icy eyes made Nangong Ran’s heart tighten and he almost bolted.
But he remembered why he had come here in the first place, so Nangong Ran gathered his courage, "Well, Duke, Xiaoqi is mad at me, she refuses to talk to me, and she wants to sever ties with me. Could you please help me put in a good word for me?"
Was she angry because of the drug? Di Mingjue’s eyebrows furrowed, this bratty girl.
"Sure." Di Mingjue nodded faintly, he will definitely have a good talk with her.

Nangong Ran almost cheered, this was the first time he had seen Di Mingjue be this cooperative!
"But there’s one condition." As Nangong Ran turned to leave, Di Mingjue spoke softly.
"What condition?" Nangong Ran immediately asked, Di Mingjue beckoned him, so Nangong Ran approached him obediently.
After coming out of the director’s office, Nangong Ran couldn’t help but wonder if he had misheard. Di Mingjue actually wanted him to monitor all of Gu Qibao’s actions in school, could it be that Di Mingjue is in love with Gu Qibao?
Holy shit.
Nangong Ran was startled.
