Chapter 566 - 567: This is a Bit Awkward
Fang Hao laughed, her eyes crinkling, before Di Xiaxia had a chance to respond. "Actually, Mom is just looking out for you. Your arm is injured now, how could you be left alone at night? You’re a heavy sleeper, what if you turned over and fractured it again?"
Hearing Fang Hao’s words, Di Xiaxia startled as if suddenly remembering something.
Yes, she fractured her arm, didn’t she?
Then why had she slept so soundly last night, devoid of any pain from accidentally resting on her injured arm?
She had shared a bed with her older brother last night, so the only explanation was that Di Mingzhe stayed up almost all night, making sure she didn’t rest on her injured arm due to turning or twisting in her sleep?
This unexpected realization made her heart flutter, filling her with an indescribable feeling.
Seeing Di Xiaxia silent, Fang Hao decisively clapped her hands, "Good, then we’ve happily decided. Tonight, you all will stay over. No one is going home. I’ll give Boss a heads up."
Without waiting for Di Xiaxia’s response, Fang Hao darted out of the room.
Di Xiaxia blankly watched Fang Hao’s retreating figure, took a while to collect herself, and then unconsciously let out a soft chuckle.
There was something stirring in her heart and it wouldn’t settle down.
The repeated echoing of Gu Qibao and Di Jinxuan’s words, every single word from Fang Hao, played over and over in her mind.
She couldn’t help but look at the door, her heartbeat quickening slightly. Was her elder brother as great as they had said?
...
After talking with Di Xiaxia, Fang Hao passed the message to Di Mingzhe. The three brothers wouldn’t be going home tonight.
Di Mingzhe and Di Mingjue had no objections, whereas Di Mingchen ended up with the raw deal.
Damn it, with everyone in pairs, he felt so pathetic staying here alone!
Boohoo, his older and younger brothers had someone to chat with at night, what about him?
No way, he refused to wallow in misery at home.
So Di Mingchen quickly responded, "Mom, I have a shift on duty at the military area tonight."
Hurriedly, he took off running, not even responding to Fang Hao calling after him.
Fang Hao pouted in dissatisfaction, "That guy Second Bro ran way too fast."
With Di Mingchen gone they couldn’t continue their mahjong game, Di Mingjue pushed the pieces away and said lazily, "Let’s go to sleep."
Before leaving, he didn’t forget to remind her, "Mom, have the kitchen prepare some late-night snacks. Gu Qibao gets hungry at night."
"I know." Fang Hao nodded with a smile. "I’ll make sure the kitchen prepares well. By the way, third son, when do you and Qibao plan to have a baby? Surely you’re not really waiting until she graduates from college, right?"
"What’s the rush?" Di Mingjue raised his eyebrow and replied at a leisurely pace, "Didn’t we say, no children within the next three to five years?"
After saying that, he walked away nonchalantly.
Fang Hao was furious to the point of spitting blood. Damn it, he was so vindictive!
He still couldn’t let go of that trick she played on him last time, could he?
She was so mad, she wanted to hold her grandchild!
Unable to convince Di Mingjue, Fang Hao turned to Di Mingzhe with a look.
Di Mingzhe looked She was so mad, she wanted to hold her grandchild! nonchalant, his face clearly saying: This has nothing to do with me, don’t look at me.
"Older son," Fang Hao winked, "Xiaxia agreed to share a room with you tonight. Will you be resting in your bedroom or hers?"
Di Mingzhe was taken aback. For some reason, he suddenly felt a little embarrassed!
Sharing a bed at the Vice Presidential Residence was within his private realm; he could do as he pleased.
But at home, this...this was somewhat awkward!
