"But I just..."
"Shh." Di Mingzhe’s slender fingers gently pressed against her lips, smiling softly, "Fool, you ultimately chose to give up, didn’t you? No matter the process, in the end, you decided to give up, didn’t you?"
"Yes." Di Xiaxia nodded, taking a deep breath, "You’re right, I gave up. Tomorrow, I will voluntarily announce my withdrawal because I’m pregnant. There’s a baby, I can’t risk the baby’s life for a joke."
Di Mingzhe smiled, gazing at her with deep affection, "You’ve got a baby, are you happy?"
Di Xiaxia was montarily stunned, then nodded joyously, "Happy."
Her ntal knot suddenly unraveled, leaving only joy. The joy of becoming a mother for the first ti was beyond delightful, all the more so because this baby was conceived with her beloved.
"I am happy too." Di Mingzhe lifted her up and placed her on the bed, kissing her softly, "Xiaxia, thank you."
Di Xiaxia still felt a bit guilty, her face reddening, "Don’t thank , I have been so headstrong, insisting on competing, I..."
"I said no more of this." Di Mingzhe silenced her mouth with a kiss, blocking back all her words of guilt.
Afterward, he held her close, speaking deliberately, "Actually, motherly love is innate. If I hadn’t objected, deep down you hadn’t completely decided that you wanted to compete, right? You were just verbally opposing ."
Di Xiaxia was suddenly taken aback, he had guessed it?
Yes, she hadn’t actually fully resolved to compete; she was conflicted, struggling, entangled inside.
It was just that Di Mingzhe was so adamantly against her going that she felt sowhat defiant and wanted to fight for it.
But if Di Mingzhe had initially agreed for her to go, she herself might not have truly wanted to go.
Because she also understood that it’s not the fear of the myriad but the fear of the unexpected.
Seeing her silent with shock, Di Mingzhe laughed softly, running his fingers through her hair, "Do I not know what you are like? You are stubborn, strong-willed, and sotis what you think in your heart completely contradicts what you say."
Di Xiaxia could sotis be such a person, fixating on a point to ridiculous lengths. Even when she had a firm conviction in her heart, she would persist out of a stubborn obsession.
For her, the competition was a kind of belief.
After all, she had invested so much in this competition.
Di Mingzhe’s understanding moved Di Xiaxia profoundly. She tenderly pressed herself against Di Mingzhe, taking a deep breath, "Alright, let’s not think about anything else. If not this competition, there will be other opportunities. Moreover, competing isn’t necessary. Our relationship has already been made public, hasn’t it?"
"Yes." Di Mingzhe nodded, his tender smile lifting as he stroked her hair, "Now you are just like Gu Xiaoqi, focusing on resting at ho, taking good care of the pregnancy. You don’t have to worry about anything else; leave it all to your big brother. Big Brother might not have the ability to place you upon a very high peak, but I will use all my power to keep you safe and sound for a lifeti."
"Thank you, Big Brother." Di Xiaxia lifted her head, her beautiful eyes gazing at him affectionately.
She was truly moved to have such a man in her life, to protect her, love her, understand her, and tolerate her.
Di Mingzhe curved his lips into a smile, "Silly girl, it is Big Brother who should thank you, thank you for being willing to give up the pursuit and dreams, to bear a future generation for ."
