Chapter 743 - 744: The Pressuring Dan Lingling
Those that were too ostentatious, too eye-catching she really didn’t dare to choose. After a lot of deliberation, she ultimately chose something more conservative, which to her was already quite flashy!
Di Xiaxia asked Gu Qibao if she wanted any, and Gu Qibao blushed and shook her head, "No thanks, the beast at my house is too wild."
After making their selections, the group left. When they came out again, they didn’t see Di Mingchen, so they decided to head back to school.
But unexpectedly, as Di Xiaxia turned around, she bumped into someone.
No, to be accurate, she was bumped into by someone. The jolt caused her to drop the bag in her hand and the delicate lingerie fell out with a clatter.
Di Xiaxia was momentarily stunned and ignored the pain in her body as she hurried to pick them up. However, a fair hand beat her to it and handed them back to her.
Di Xiaxia was about to say thanks, but was startled when she saw the person’s face.
Isn’t this Dan Lingling?
Dan Lingling also looked at her with a smile on her lips, which hid a touch of ridicule, "Miss Di sure is in high spirits."
Di Xiaxia hastily grabbed the lingerie amidst her confusion, managed to keep her composure and smiled, replying, "Thank you."
After she finished speaking, she tried to pull Nangong Ran away, but Dan Lingling blocked her path.
Di Xiaxia narrowed her eyes, "What do you mean by this, Miss Dan?"
Dan Lingling lifted her lips, and said, "If I remember correctly, you are currently living with the gentleman, aren’t you? Whom are you planning to wear this lingerie for? Is it for the gentleman? But he’s your brother."
Those words left the four girls pale-faced.
"Who are you to judge whom she wants to wear it for?" Gu Qibao was the first to retort.
Dan Lingling chuckled again, her eyes filled with contempt. "I am the daughter of the President, and a good friend of the gentleman. I was merely asking a casual question. Why are you so nervous?"
Di Xiaxia pulled Gu Qibao slightly.
"This is my private matter, and I don’t need to report it to Miss Dan." Di Xiaxia looked at Dan Lingling, her tone neither humble nor haughty.
"We have something else to attend to, Miss Dan you may carry on."
Before Di Xiaxia and the others had a chance to leave, Dan Lingling opened her mouth, "As the sister of the gentleman, living under the same roof, you need to be aware of your image. Don’t bring any trouble to the gentleman due to your inappropriate behavior. Are you buying such lingerie to entice the gentleman, or to bring back other men and have fun?"
Dan Lingling’s sharp, sarcastic remarks enraged everyone present.
Nangong Ran clenched her fist. "What’s it to you?"
Di Xiaxia shook her head at Nangong Ran and turned her gaze to Dan Lingling. She calmly said, "Whatever I do is none of your business because it’s my life. Regarding my brother, you don’t need to worry because it’s our family business. What gives you the right to make such offensive statements? Please respect your own position and don’t assume everyone thinks as dirtily as you do."
"You!" Dan Lingling turned red with anger, but she tried to maintain her composure in public. She took a deep breath and said, "Miss Di, please respect yourself."
"Who is the one lacking self-respect?" Di Xiaxia didn’t show any fear. She was prepared for this as Mingzhe had already briefed her.
"A dog looking at another dog, can only see a dog." Nangong Ran indirectly mocked, not holding back her counterattack.
