Chapter 540 - 541: As Long As You’re Happy
"Small?" Di Mingzhe frowned, "I didn’t notice it being particularly small."
As he finished speaking, his gaze fell to her hand. He took a casual seat next to her, and his slender fingers lightly touched her hand, which was covered in adhesive tape. Looking up, his deeply black eyes, enticing and filled with sympathy, he asked her softly, "Does it hurt?"
Di Xiaxia watched his gentle eyes and was dazed for a while. He, it seems, had many different sides.
The way he treated her was different from others, and it gave her a warm feeling.
Seeing her stay silent, just staring at him, Di Mingzhe’s frown deepened. Had she been stunned by the pain?
"What’s wrong?" Di Mingzhe asked in a low voice, his voice slightly hoarse.
Only then did Di Xiaxia come back to her senses. She rapidly nodded her head, then just as hurriedly shook it.
Di Mingzhe’s brows furrowed even more, as if she really had become a little silly.
However, he was not the type to express himself through words, especially not in this moment.
After thinking for a while, he gently held her hand, lightly kissed it, and asked, seemingly a bit embarrassed, "Does this make you feel better?"
Di Xiaxia was stunned, her eyes widened. Damn, could he be any more naive and childish?
Was this a successful flirtation or just cloyingly cute behavior? She was slightly perplexed!
However, combined with his earth-shattering good looks, she had the feeling of having her heart stolen away.
Di Xiaxia’s face reddened inexplicably, and she embarrassedly nodded her head, whispering an agreement.
After acknowledging, she felt a surge of exasperation, thinking ’Damn, I’ve become an idiot, and I’ve even started to play his childish games!’
Whimpering silently in her heart, she felt exhausted.
Di Mingzhe, on the other side, was very serious, pursing his lips and saying in a deep voice, "You should rest a bit. Elder brother will take care of some things, alright?"
Endless concern from every possible angle, what could Di Xiaxia do?
However, he mentioned he needs to get some work done!
Yeah, yeah, he better gets his work done quick, and he better be doing it for a long, long time!
So, Di Xiaxia quickly responded, "Ok, go ahead and get busy. Don’t worry about me. You get your work done first. I’ll be alright."
"Ok." Di Mingzhe nodded.
However, to Di Xiaxia’s frustration, he did not leave!
Instead, he had a bunch of documents delivered and sat at the writing desk in the bedroom to work.
Di Xiaxia felt awkward.
Looking at the giant stack of documents, Di Xiaxia felt weary.
Was he going to stay at home to work instead of going to the office?
With him constantly in the room, how was she going to let loose?
The feeling, the feeling was particularly uncomfortable.
So, Di Xiaxia asked, "Elder brother, don’t you have to go to work? You’re working from home today?"
Di Mingzhe put down the document in his hand and looked up at her, "Is there a problem?"
Di Xiaxia was bewildered, how should she respond?
Was there a problem, or was there not?
Damn!
This was such an official question!
Di Xiaxia didn’t respond, Di Mingzhe started speaking again, "I requested a few days off. If there’s nothing important to do, I can stay at home to work, and it’ll make it easier to take care of you, is that not good?"
Eh, well, it was not that it wasn’t good!
Di Xiaxia looked uncertainly at him, feeling that his speech was filled with profound implications, making it extremely difficult to provide any response. Each of his sentences was like a deep pit!
Di Xiaxia laughed awkwardly, "If it makes you happy, then it’s good."
"Mm." Di Mingzhe simply replied, and resumed working.
Meanwhile
Gu Qibao was still refusing to get out of bed while Di Mingjue had taken the day off from work under the pretense of being on vacation. He dedicated the day to stay at home and accompany his wife.
He too was lazing in bed with Gu Qibao, both wrapped in the comfort of lazy sleep.
