Chapter 298 - 299: Which one should be chosen?
Di Mingzhe was feeling gloomy, his face sullen as he watched Di Xiaxia, as though he wanted to bore a hole through her face with his intense gaze.
Being real here, there were times this little sister of his made him truly question the meaning of life!
They were born of the same mother, so why in the world were their modes of interaction completely different?
While berating Di Xiaxia, Di Mingchen examined her wound carefully, even good-heartedly prodding at it. He asked, "Does it hurt?"
Di Xiaxia grimaced, "Mingchen, be gentler on me!"
Di Mingchen patted her head, "There, there. If I prod at it a bit more, it won’t hurt anymore. This is called the Oppressive Pain Relief Method."
Di Xiaxia: "..."
"Big brother didn’t get hurt, did he? Did you drag him along with you to skateboard?" All of a sudden, Di Mingchen seemed to remember something and started questioning her.
Di Xiaxia was taken aback, she turned to look at Di Mingzhe. Seeing his gloomy face and his intense gaze focused on her, she got startled.
Holy crap, it can’t be that big brother’s jealous, can it?!
Di Xiaxia hurriedly said, "No, big brother came to rescue me. I’m not sure if he got hurt. Mingchen, go check on him quickly. If big brother got hurt, he might be too shy to admit it."
"Uh..." Di Mingchen scratched his head, turning to look at Di Mingzhe.
Damn, why does big brother look so gloomy?
"Big brother, are you okay?" Di Mingchen leaned in closer to probe at his body anxiously. He asked, "You didn’t hurt any indescribable part, did you?"
As Di Mingchen began to undress Di Mingzhe to check for injuries, Di Mingzhe brushed his hand away, still maintaining his detached demeanor, "I’m fine."
Di Mingchen pouted his lips, going to say something to Di Xiaxia. When he turned his head, he found that she was already leaning against the wall, asleep.
Di Mingchen just went ahead and sat down next to Di Mingzhe, starting to lecture him, "Why do you come to these places on a whim? Even if you wanted to inspect things, couldn’t you have just dispatched some officials? The third brother is crazy, are you going to be crazy with him, too? He came here to see his wife, what are you doing here? Sightseeing?"
It must be said that Di Mingchen’s sharp tongue was rather similar to Mingjue’s in nature.
Di Mingzhe didn’t bother responding to him, just letting him chatter away by himself.
Actually, Di Xiaxia wasn’t really asleep. She had her eyes closed and was simply listening to Di Mingchen’s chatter.
Mingchen really was quite a warm-hearted person.
Actually, not just Mingchen, big brother was pretty warm-hearted too. Even the most brash and cold third brother was warm-hearted deep down.
Everyone in the Di family was actually very warm-hearted.
Di Mingchen grumbled to himself for a while, and when Di Mingzhe didn’t respond to him, he stopped talking.
But then he suddenly noticed that Di Mingzhe was still staring at Di Xiaxia.
Di Mingchen frowned suspiciously, looking from Di Xiaxia to Di Mingzhe, and asked in confusion, "Big brother, what are you looking at?"
"Nothing." Di Mingzhe averted his gaze, pretending to be deep in thought.
Di Mingchen blinked, bewildered at his actions.
You can’t really blame Di Mingchen for not understanding, firstly because he’s still naive, and secondly because he’s a soldier. Having been rolling about in the military camp for an extended period, one’s emotional intelligence would inevitably be a bit low.
Over here
Watching as Di Xiaxia and the others left, Gu Qibao racked her brain, suddenly blurting out, "Emma, which is a better match for Sister Xiaxia? Mingchen or big brother?"
"What are you even thinking about." Di Mingjue knocked her on the head, "Of course, the more normal one would be better."
Gu Qibao blinked, "So, you’re also against big brother being with Mingchen?"
Di Mingjue was left speechless. It wasn’t that he opposed it, only just— both of them were his biological brothers!
