Chapter 550 - 551: He’s Afraid She’ll Panic
The farthest distance in the world is no doubtly, having you in my arms, so close to you, yet, I just can’t feel you...
I just can’t feel you!
Perhaps only those who have experienced it will understand how bitter a two-decade-long love can be. But at the moment, it’s overwhelmingly beautiful for him, so much so that he dares not ask for more.
Who could have thought that someone of such a grand and excellent stature would also harbour the humblest side in his heart?
So in this world, birth might not be equal, status might not be equal, wealth might not be equal, but indeed there are two things are equal.
Those are life and love.
No one is superior to others before birth, old age, sickness, and death; no one is superior to others in terms of love or lack of it.
An inexplicable wave of sadness expands in his chest, Di Mingzhe holds Xiaxia tightly. Maybe things are perfectly fine this way, even if she is just a body, at least she is around!
Time, time must be the best testament.
Even if it’s a stone, given enough time, it too can become heated. So, he’s not in a rush. What he fears is her being anxious.
...
Over here
After work, Di Mingjue took Gu Qibao with him back to the Di Family’s mansion, as Fang Hao had called them to come home for dinner.
They knew that Xiaxia and Di Mingzhe would be coming home for dinner too.
The mood of Gu Qibao was indeed very high. Sitting in the car, she was cheerfully humming her "divine song", "Who cares about exams, I’m going home, to pursue my dreams, even though the wind will be strong, and the waves will be high, but I have strength, the school won’t let me keep my hair, I throw up dregs, still complained to my parents, your child is too bad, can’t manage, go home and farm!"
Di Mingjue couldn’t help but glance at her sideways, but the corners of his lips twisted into a smile. His profound gaze held a bit of taunting as he pinched her tender cheeks, teasing, "Stinky gourd, can’t you sing a song with a bit more aspiration?"
"A song with more aspiration?" Gu Qibao pouted her mouth, irritated and rebuking, "Hey, Mr. Di, it’s your honor that I, sir, am willing to sing for you. And you’re still picking and choosing? Want to request songs now, huh?"
The smile at Di Mingjue’s lips widened, he started to brainwash her insistently, "The main point is, your song lacks ambition, lacks layers, you know? You should be singing something high-class that fits the status of Third Madam of the Di family."
Gu Qibao: "..."
"Alright." Gu Qibao gave it some thought, nodded her little head, and said solemnly, "Then sister will sing you a very high-class song, with a very high-style tone, okay?"
Di Mingjue squinted, instantly doubting her, couldn’t help but say, "You’re not going to sing ’because I am a farmer’ again, are you?"
This comment made Gu Qibao laugh out loud. She covered her belly, striking the dashboard emphatically, "Do I look like that worthless, tasteless person?"
"Yes." Di Mingjue said without any hesitation.
"Humph." Gu Qibao proudly snorted, "Look down on me. Listen up, I’ll sing you a very nice song now!"
After saying that, she truly started to contemplate seriously.
Di Mingjue’s eyebrows lifted, is this girl seriously going to sing a love song or something?
With this in mind, Di Mingjue couldn’t resist reaching out and grasping her small hand. Honestly, he was a little excited, wondering what kind of song she would sing.
After pondering for a while, Gu Qibao finally showed a smile, stating with a bit of satisfaction and pride. "Di Mingjue, I promise you’re just going to love this song!"
