Chapter 289 - 290: Finally Found Her
Upon being scolded by Di Mingjue, the officials began shooing away the students.
However, one person refused to go, and that was Lin Wan.
She seized the opportunity to grumble, "Why does Gu Qibao get to stay here? This is a private meeting with friends and family."
Di Mingjue lifted his eyebrows coolly, "The vice-president visiting the countryside is a commendable act; how does it become problematic when it reaches your ears?"
Those words put quite a harsh label on Lin Wan.
But she was young and just about to refute when an official standing next to her fiercely reprimanded, "What chaos are you causing here? If you won’t leave, we’ll expel you!"
Lin Wan still refused to give up, she pointed at Gu Qibao and yelled, "Why doesn’t she have to go?"
Gu Qibao immediately stood up, "Who said I’m not going? I’m leaving right now!"
Anyway, her presence didn’t play a significant role here.
"Who allowed you to leave." Di Mingjue pulled her back by her hand, coldly glaring at Lin Wan, "I don’t want to waste time explaining. If you can persuade your superiors with your logic, then go ahead, what’s the big deal if she doesn’t go to university?"
Lin Wan’s eyes widened in disbelief. She couldn’t believe Di Mingjue would say such words.
If Gu Qibao indeed didn’t want to go to university, then no one would dare to say anything about their intimate behavior.
Lin Wan was left stunned, and so was Gu Qibao.
With a look of disgust, Di Mingjue frowned and glared harshly at Lin Wan, "Get lost!"
Lin Wan’s face turned red, she covered her face and ran away crying.
"Hubby." Gu Qibao looked innocently at Di Mingjue, blinked her eyes, somewhat perplexed.
Di Mingjue, irritated, pulled her into his arms and arrogantly said, "If she can’t get into a public university, I’ll establish a private one for her. The quality of teaching is guaranteed to be competitive."
Gu Qibao’s eyes widened in surprise.
Nangong Ran and Bo Chenghe standing beside them also widened their eyes.
Nangong Ran hurriedly said, "Then I don’t have to struggle like this either."
Di Mingjue remained silent.
The label of a private university may not be as sturdy as a public one, but who cares?
Anyway, he did not expect Gu Qibao to work for a living, he just wanted to fulfill her desire.
He had long been displeased with her struggles here.
Seeing Di Mingjue’s protective nature, Gu Qibao’s eyes welled up slightly.
She leaned obediently in his strong arms, wanting to say something but not knowing what to say.
After all, she was used to being protected by him.
This habit felt so good!
On the other side
Di Mingzhe had successfully reached the cliff bottom but didn’t spot Di Xiaxia anywhere after looking around. Helpless, he stepped forward to investigate the area.
The grass was very dense here, making it harder to search.
But that didn’t deter him from looking.
"Di Xiaxia." As he called out her name, he picked a branch and used it to part the grass in search of Di Xiaxia.
The more anxious he became, the angrier he got at her mischief.
The dense undergrowth made it difficult to search and move forward. After a while, he noticed the grass ahead seemed to be trampled.
She might have fallen there!
Frantic, he strode forward, "Di Xiaxia, are you there? Answer me if you hear me."
The man’s voice was hoarse and anxious, lacking his usual calm and harboring an uncertain confusion.
"Di Xiaxia!"
Parting the grass, Di Mingzhe rushed forward and indeed found Di Xiaxia amidst the dense vegetation.
She had indeed fainted!
Without wasting time, Di Mingzhe immediately rushed forward.
"Di Xiaxia, how are you feeling?" Di Mingzhe crouched down, straightened her body, patting her face softly.
She didn’t look too good, but thankfully he had found her!
