Chapter 958: I Advise You Not to Overthink
Gu Qibao blinked playfully and asked, "Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"
Di Mingchen couldn’t help but laugh and tapped her on the forehead, "You little imp."
Gu Qibao giggled incessantly, "From your reaction, it seems it’s not yours then?"
"No." Di Mingchen shook his head honestly, "It’s my comrade’s. He died in the line of duty, and I am just taking care of them."
So that was it, Gu Qibao’s heart finally settled.
She couldn’t help but ask again, "But why did you say it was yours last time?"
"Because last time it was in front of them, I didn’t want them to be looked at differently, nor did I want them to feel sad." Di Mingchen replied seriously, "A comrade’s child is also my child, isn’t it?"
Gu Qibao looked at Di Mingchen and suddenly felt that he was very warm-hearted and a good person.
"Hmm." Gu Qibao nodded, "So that’s how it is."
No wonder Di Mingchen had never mentioned this matter in front of his family, nor took them home. If they really were his, or if he had fallen in love with a woman who had children, he would have told his family no matter what, or brought them home directly.
It turned out that the truth of the matter was not always what we see with our eyes or hear with our ears.
The two continued to chat and laugh, and this scene was observed by Shen Yilan from not too far away.
She lifted her lips in a scornful and disdainful sneer, "What trash."
Shameless flirting.
The husband had just turned around, and she immediately started cozying up to the soldier.
After disdainfully snorting, Shen Yilan coldly huffed and went over with two glasses of wine.
Just then, Di Mingchen had also left, and Gu Qibao was sitting there alone.
Shen Yilan looked over and saw that Di Mingjue was still talking with Dan Youguo and probably couldn’t get away for a while.
Shen Yilan stepped forward with a properly charming smile on her face, "Mrs. Di is sitting here alone."
Gu Qibao nodded slightly but said nothing.
"Have a drink." Shen Yilan sat down and extended the wine glass in her hand towards Gu Qibao, "I toast to you."
"I don’t drink." Gu Qibao did not take the wine glass.
After saying that, she stood up to leave, but Shen Yilan grabbed her.
Gu Qibao frowned, "Is there something you want?"
"Why doesn’t Mrs. Di give any face?" Shen Yilan smiled elegantly, but her tone was full of provocation.
Gu Qibao couldn’t help but find it funny and retorted, "Why should I give you face?"
In other words, what makes you think you deserve my courtesy?
Shen Yilan’s smile froze; she hated it when people spoke to her like that.
Because she came from an ordinary background, and it was through her own efforts and struggles that she had reached where she was today.
So what she loathed the most was when people didn’t even bother with a polite facade when speaking to her.
It was as if they had stepped on her tail.
Gu Qibao looked at her stiffened smile and really felt that such a person had some screwed up thinking.
Without holding back, she said bluntly, "Miss Shen, I advise you not to be so cunning. If you weren’t so duplicitous, you might still be my husband’s good classmate, and we would treat you warmly. But your two-faced behavior really disgusts me.
I don’t like people like you, so don’t expect me to say anything nice about you. Don’t even think of trying to destroy the relationship between my husband and me. If it could be easily ruined, then we wouldn’t have gotten married so easily. I hope you understand the definition of a married couple. A couple is inseparable, not something you can damage with a few idle rumors and gossip."
Shen Yilan didn’t expect Gu Qibao, young as she was, to speak so directly and with such resolute strength.
