Chapter 382 - 383: Do You Really Know Who I Am?
Gu Qibao spaced out for another two seconds, then suddenly smacked herself on the forehead. "Emma, I was drowsy!"
Di Mingjue’s heart dropped to the ground in an instant, but it was pounding wildly. This girl almost scared him out of his mind!
"Do you really know who I am?" Di Mingjue suddenly stood up, excitedly sat on the bed, and asked her, still somewhat uncertainly.
This girl sure knows how to scare people!
He, he was really about to be scared to death by her!
Gu Qibao, with her cute blinking eyes, looked at his extremely haggard appearance, his incredibly anxious expression at this moment, and finally gave a sweet smile, "Husband."
Di Mingjue’s body tensed up abruptly. He pulled her into his arms, holding her tightly, his breathing heavy and rapid, "Baby, are you really okay? Don’t scare me, okay?"
Gu Qibao, tightly held in his arms, finally let out a sigh of relief. Hearing his anxious questions, her throat tightened and she suddenly burst into tears, wiping her eyes and saying, "Yes, I’m okay now. I won’t scare you anymore, I’m awake now. Truly, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with me, don’t worry."
"Really?" Di Mingjue was still a little unsure.
"Of course it’s true!" Gu Qibao wiped her tears and got up from him, bouncing on the bed a couple of times, "See, I can bounce around just fine!"
Di Mingjue finally believed her. It felt like he had been on a roller coaster ride!
Nothing could compare to this feeling anymore!
That cheeky girl, you won! Really!
Her unpredictability had shocked the calm, stoic for twenty-five years, and composed for twenty-five years, Di Mingjue into an internal meltdown for the first time.
"Alright, stop bouncing around now." Di Mingjue reached out a hand to pull her into his arms, looking at her seriously, "You’re still not well, there’s no need to exert yourself."
Gu Qibao obediently raised her eyes, observing his haggard face, his eyes red and filled with bloodshot veins, his sexy thin lips and firm lower jaw lined with stubble.
A pang of heartache hit her. She gently touched his chin. Di Mingjue did not speak; his deep gaze remained fixed on her, not willing to look away for even a second.
Gu Qibao looked at him, "Mr. Di must have been worried sick, right?"
"Only just realized it, have you?" Di Mingjue looked at her, his voice hoarse to the extreme.
Has she only just realized it? Only just realized it?
It was far more than just being worried sick!
He couldn’t describe the feeling in words. Really, even as a top student, he felt the poverty of language in this moment.
"I’ve always known." Gu Qibao said seriously, her small hand gently caressing his stunning features, carefully and slowly, as if she wanted to imprint his appearance into her brain, etching it into her bones.
Mr. Di, I know that you went to tremendous lengths to find me. I know you were worried to an inordinate extent. I know you cried. I heard every single word you said.
Actually, I felt exactly the same way, and I was incredibly touched.
Especially when I heard you boasting about how amazing your wife is, I wanted to cry at that moment.
A very serious expression lay on her adorable little face, as if she was carefully working on an exquisite sculpture.
Her charming, grape-like eyes were filled with tears. Yet at this moment, her eyes, the expression on her face, were tinged with a certain solemn sanctity.
The touch of her hand on his face was deeply etched into his heart.
PS: I recommend my friend Micro Girl’s sweet campus romance novel "Hello, School Hunk!", where a girl disguises as a boy to attract the school hunk, only to be pursued instead and they play flirting games every night. It’s light-hearted, funny, and you’re welcome to check it out!
