Chapter 284 - 285: After All, Emperor Third Master is So Wild!
As soon as his sentence fell, Di Mingzhe abruptly turned his head, causing those around him to jump in surprise.
Then...
His handsome face instantly turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
How could Di Xiaxia have fallen? She was skateboarding so vigorously, demonstrating such dexterity and cool moves that he couldn’t help but stare.
He had never known that Di Xiaxia had such a cool side.
Because he reacted so swiftly, his men all turned their heads sharply, making the scene a bit awkward.
Di Mingzhe casually looked back and saw the third son of the Di family was holding back a smirk.
"What’s wrong, Vice President?" One of his men quickly asked.
"Nothing," Di Mingzhe answered nonchalantly and couldn’t help but glare daggers at Di Mingjue.
Di Mingjue wore a face of delight at his brother’s expense, looking at Di Mingzhe thoughtfully, and muttered in his heart, sorry, big brother!
Di Mingzhe walked away first, leaving Di Mingjue standing leisurely, his hands in his pockets and a cunning smile on his lips.
If there’s one thing to be said about him, it’s that he holds grudges quite well.
And still claiming not to be attracted to Di Xiaxia!
Di Mingjue hmphed with a mischievous smile on his face and followed along.
Looking back to Di Xiaxia, as she saw several bodyguards chasing her, she became nervous and skated faster.
The bodyguards, well-trained as they were, kept up with her despite the skateboard.
With a bunch of Di Xiaxia’s friends helping her out, the scene turned out to be quite fascinating.
It’s not an exaggeration to describe the scene as chaos.
Upon hearing the noise from behind, Di Mingzhe felt an inexplicable irritation. He couldn’t quite pinpoint what was irritating him so much.
No matter, he was here for an inspection, running into Di Xiaxia was an accident, yes, an accident.
As he was lost in his thoughts, Di Mingjue caught up and joined him, suddenly saying, "Di Xiaxia has grown up in the blink of an eye."
"What do you mean?" Di Mingzhe glanced at him; was this guy seriously waxing nostalgic for no particular reason?
"She can start dating now," Di Mingjue gave Di Mingzhe a side-eyed look, "The other day, you were telling me about some great guys in your unit who just don’t have girlfriends."
"Hmph." Di Mingzhe snorted dismissively, "She’s only 24, what’s the rush?"
"24 and you’re not worried?" Di Mingjue coldly retorted, "Gu Qibao is not even twenty yet."
Di Mingzhe frowned, choosing not to respond.
Di Mingjue raised an eyebrow, feeling pleased with himself, thinking, that’ll teach him.
When mealtime arrived, they headed back to the restaurant where Gu Qibao and her friends were dining.
The food was all set.
When Di Mingjue saw the food, his face turned into one of utter distaste.
Is this supposed to be food?
Brown rice, Chinese cabbage, green vegetables, seaweed, and the only decent dish was scrambled eggs with tomatoes – and even then, there were too many tomatoes and too few eggs.
Di Mingjue was convinced that there was probably just one egg in that large bowl of scrambled eggs with tomatoes.
It seemed like his darling Qibao was leading a very difficult and burdensome life here.
How he wished he could go over and embrace her, or whisk her away and treat her to a proper feast.
Unfortunately, the current situation did not permit this.
For the first time, the Third Young Master Di felt helpless. His woman was suffering, and he was not able to take her pain away!
Feeling slightly saddened, when Gu Qibao handed him a pair of chopsticks, he gripped them tightly in his hand and did not let go.
Gu Qibao blinked in surprise, quickly withdrew her hand, and whispered, "Headmaster, let’s eat."
Nangong Ran, sensing something was not right, chimed in, "Yeah, let’s eat before the food gets cold."
She was genuinely concerned that Di Mingjue, unable to restrain himself, would suddenly lose control, kick the table over and harshly state, "How dare you feed my wife this kind of food all these days!"
After all, Di Mingjue was known to be quite assertive!
