Chapter 467 - 468: Both Mom and Dad Have Agreed
"No." Di Xiaxia paused with her chopsticks in hand, hesitated a bit, "I’m growing up, I just feel like I should have a place of my own, and anyway, after the holiday, I should be returning to school."
"I see." Fang Hao turned her head to look at Di Yan.
Di Yan furrowed his brows, "It’s a good thing to be independent. A girl of your age should have her private space. There’s a villa in the suburbs, right? Let’s have it prepared for you."
Fang Hao pondered for a moment, nodded, and agreed.
As if she recalled something, Fang Hao turned her eyes to Di Xiaxia, her tone became serious, "Xiaxia, Mum still can’t let you go, but a girl can’t always live in her parent’s home. Young people should have their lives. Mum understands! But if you have a boyfriend, you have to bring him home for Mum’s approval. Do you understand what I mean?"
Di Xiaxia was stunned for a moment, it took her a while to react before she protested, "Mum, it’s not what you think."
"What do you think I am thinking?" Fang Hao sneakily grinned.
Di Xiaxia’s face turned red, she was almost on the verge of kneeling before Fang Hao. Her mum was being insufferably cunning.
"Anyway, that’s not what I meant." Di Xiaxia pouted, "Mum, you’re misunderstanding. I haven’t thought about having a boyfriend yet."
The conversation became awkward, Fang Hao thought she still likes Mingjue, so she quickly changed the topic. "Okay, okay, let’s not talk about this right now. If you want to move out and live on your own, then do it."
"Okay." Di Xiaxia nodded, but didn’t dare to lift her gaze, because she felt a burning and intimidating look constantly staring at her face, was it her brother?
Di Xiaxia quickly turned her head, keeping her gaze low she focused on the rice in her bowl, wanting to finish quickly and leave.
"Why do you want to move out?" Di Mingzhe suddenly raised his eyes and asked in a serious tone.
Di Xiaxia’s hand, which was holding a chopstick, trembled slightly. She continued to bow her head and replied, "I’ve said my reasons already."
"No." Di Mingzhe looked at her and calmly uttered two words, completely shattering her illusions.
"Why?" Emboldened, Di Xiaxia raised her gaze to meet his. Their eyes clashed, Di Mingzhe’s eyes narrowed slightly, seemingly containing a hint of anger.
She appeared obstinate, her obstinacy made his heart flutter, was she trying to distance herself from him?
Moving out, so they wouldn’t be too entwined anymore, right?
Di Mingzhe tightly clenched his chopstick, a faint white was visible at his knuckles, and he just stared at Di Xiaxia. Although it seemed he was lying low and considering, his heart was in turmoil.
She wanted to keep her distance from him, she wanted to run away from him, she wanted to give him less excuse to find her!
She might even bring her boyfriend back to her place!
The thought made Di Mingzhe’s anger almost impossible to contain, his eyes becoming even deeper, with a terrifying sharpness.
Di Xiaxia was somewhat scared, last time he kissed her for no reason, didn’t even utter a word, just asked her not to take it to heart. So what does it mean by not allowing her to move now?
Such hidden anger was something Di Xiaxia hadn’t seen before in Di Mingzhe, very afraid, but she refused to back down. So, she defiantly met his gaze, "Mum and Dad agreed."
Di Mingzhe looked at her. He never saw such defiance on her face before, he didn’t know why, but he detested the rebellion in her gaze.
