Mingjue kicked her slightly and said, "Get up, it’s hubby’s ti to play."
Qibao stood up in annoyance and gave her seat to Di Mingjue.
As soon as Di Mingjue sat down, Xiaxia started to protest, "Bro, I don’t want to play cards with you!"
She said it with a smile on her face, not intending to leave the table at all.
Qibao stood on the side and stared gloomily at the cards in Di Mingjue’s hands.
Di Mingjue’s card skills were sothing else. Coupled with good luck, in no ti, he turned Qibao’s bad hand into a winning one.
Qibao was left dumbfounded and had to admit to his skills.
Right as Di Mingjue was about to win, Qibao seed happy. Just as she was about to say sothing, Xiaxia pulled at Di Mingjue’s hand and exclaid, "Bro, you’re cheating!"
"Which eye saw cheating?" Di Mingjue looked at her coldly, "Pay up."
"Fine, I’ll pay." Xiaxia pouted and handed over the money. She then begged again, "Bro, can you go easy on next ti?"
Di Mingjue coldly commanded, "Just play the ga properly."
Xiaxia’s face fell.
Qibao, who was watching from the side, was instantly even more upset!
Who was Di Mingjue? His cold and unfeeling attitude towards Bo Chengxin didn’t seem to apply to Xiaxia, who was technically her love rival. Although he was still cold towards her, it was a million tis better than how he treated Bo Chengxin.
Maybe it was because they were family after all.
But Qibao felt wronged and embarrassed standing there because the way Di Mingjue treated Xiaxia was...
She couldn’t quite put her feelings into words.
It was as if he showed no rcy, ignoring Bo Chengxin completely whenever she was involved.
But with Xiaxia, it wasn’t so!
Qibao was irate that Di Mingjue had not spoken to her for two rounds of the ga, focusing only on the cards. Moreover, Xiaxia was constantly talking, and Di Mingjue occasionally responded.
Suddenly, Qibao felt like she was an outsider, like she was intruding on Xiaxia and Di Mingjue’s ti. These feelings had never occurred when dealing with Bo Chengxin.
She rembered how Di Mingjue would publicly defend her in front of Bo Chengxin, showing off their love while treating Bo Chengxin with indifference.
Compared to Xiaxia, it seed like Di Mingjue hadn’t done much to defend her at all since they entered.
The stark contrast between the two situations made her feel sad and humiliated.
More so, she felt jealous.
She didn’t want to stay here, she wanted to leave. As she was about to leave, Di Mingjue reached out and grabbed her hand.
Qibao turned around, upset and asked, "What is it?"
"Babe, can you get so water for ?" said Di Mingjue, but his eyes remained glued to the cards.
Qibao, who was already annoyed, quickly refused, "Don’t you have hands? I’m not going!"
Di Mingjue’s face fell at this rejection. He turned his frosty gaze towards her and asked, "What’s the matter?"
Before Qibao could speak, Xiaxia jumped up, "Brother, let get it for you."
Di Mingjue didn’t respond.
Qibao protested with a small jolt of bitterness, "Your little sister’s going to get it for you!"
Di Mingjue’s eyebrows furrowed, the chill on his face deepening, "I asked you to get it for ."
Fuming, Qibao retorted, "Why should I have to get it for you?"
Seeing Di Mingjue remain silent with a foreboding expression, Qibao’s anger flared up even more. She burst out, "Isn’t that so? What did you promise before we got married? Shouldn’t you be taking care of while I’m playing cards, and you get the water when I want to drink?"
