Chapter 508 - 509: The words I wanted to say got swallowed back into my stomach
If she hadn’t remembered wrong, it was the first time she had seen this man appear so commanding before her.
Such blatant display without hiding anything.
The show of strength and respect in the eyes of the guards were also not hidden.
Suddenly it hit her, this man is the Vice President of the entire Empire!
A person above tens of thousands, second only to one!
An existence that can stir up a whole nation singlehandedly!
Now standing before him, she felt, for the first time, incredibly insignificant.
The feeling of an ant gazing up at a deity, that’s how she felt right now.
Only then did she remember, she had been slightly overlooking him, continually thinking of him as just her elder brother.
Each time he came home it was with such deliberate understatement and restraint, hardly ever showing off in front of family, so quiet, usually with only one or two bodyguards around.
So, perhaps everyone at home overlooked his influential status and position, treating him just as a regular family member.
She was the same.
Unbeknown to them, this man is actually someone who can turn things around at will.
So standing here at this moment, under what identity should she confront him?
As a younger sister?
No, she wasn’t.
They had no blood ties between them, only the bond of over twenty years.
So mother was right in saying that, a man like her elder brother, so aloof and unreachable, what girl could resist loving him?
He could pick any girl he wanted, and which girl would dare to refuse him?
Probably they would be eager to throw themselves at him.
Such a man would undoubtedly be the most eye-catching in a crowd.
With a prominent position, exceptional talents, accomplished at such a young age, with stunning looks, on top of that, he is modest, cultured, great manners, and incredibly nice temperament.
What woman wouldn’t fall for him?
Maybe that includes her too?
Di Xiaxia just stood there, gazing blankly as the Lincoln slowly drove up to her.
The car was moving slowly, as if it were dictated to drive like that, the early morning sun shone brightly yet arrogantly on the car, it seemed like a layer of golden light had been placed on the vehicle.
So dazzling and invincible.
Di Xiaxia’s beautiful eyes squinted slightly, her heart started beating faster and faster.
So what should she say to such a man?
Question him, why did you kiss me?
Why did you have me move in to live with you?
Is it because you like me?
Right, that was her original intention, but now she felt unable to utter those words.
The gap between them seemed too wide.
He is so accomplished, and she seemed to be nothing in comparison.
Just a foolish and clumsy woman, someone who has no particular talents, just bouncing around, a young fool.
She didn’t even have a complete family!
No father, no mother, just an orphan who managed to hit the jackpot and was taken in by his family.
Ever since, she lived a princess-like life that most normal people could not enjoy, with no worry about food or clothing.
Actually, she was such a mess, the third brother she had loved for years never gave her a serious look.
In retrospect, she didn’t have any redeeming qualities.
Somewhere in the midst of Di Mingzhe’s excellence, she felt a bit inferior deep down.
She didn’t know why she felt inferior, but strangely enough she couldn’t utter those words anymore.
Forget about it, Di Xiaxia, you’re overthinking, how could such a man possibly like you?
Like you, who is nothing, such an utterly messed-up girl.
You’ve thought too much, taking his momentary playfulness as something serious, haven’t you?
Di Xiaxia cast down her eyes, looking at her messed-up self.
