As early as when Bo Chengyan stopped her from lashing out at Bo Chengxin, without listening to her explanations or apologies, she should have known that she should not have any more thoughts about this man.
Could you really expect sothing, or rather a miracle, to happen with a man who could trample on your dignity?
It’s ironically pathetic that the man she loved trampled on her dignity without a second thought, while the man she didn’t love,
helped her reclaim it.
Gu Qibao couldn’t help but look at Di Mingjue, for the first ti finding this blockhead impossibly handso.
Yet, when no one else was around, he was still as cruel to her as ever.
Seeing Gu Qibao looking at him in such a manner, Di Mingjue blushes and pinches her cheek, "You stinky brat."
Did Gu Qibao sense a hint of shyness in Di Mingjue?
He can get shy?
Isn’t that hilariously ridiculous?
With his aura of icy regality, to be honest, being shy is absolutely bizarre.
Nangong Ran, who was standing aside, jumped up excitedly and gave his thumbs up, "Your Duke is so badass, Gu Qibao! Go worship him!"
Gu Qibao was taken aback, Nangong Ran, this crappy friend, was such a rubbish talker. He just told her to serve Di Mingjue?
No way is she doing that!
Di Mingjue approvingly glanced at Nangong Ran, then turned his gaze back to Gu Qibao pulling her into his embrace, the acidity gone from his tone, "Let’s grab dinner tonight, where do you want to eat? Jinwei Pavilion?"
Gu Qibao blinked, she didn’t really want to have dinner with him, especially not with Nangong Ran around!
Nangong Ran, that sycophantic bootlicker, would surely take Di Mingjue’s side. During dinner, wouldn’t she be bullied by the both of them, waiting on Di Mingjue as if she were a maid?
That thought itself was horrendous. No thanks, she’d pass.
Before she could decline, Nangong Ran said, "Xuanxuan is coming back tonight."
Di Jinxuan, Di Mingjue’s younger sister, and Gu Qibao shared a revolutionary friendship since they were in diapers.
Gu Qibao’s eyes twinkled, "Really? What ti does her flight land?"
"Six p.m," Nangong Ran replied, "She’s demanded that all of us pick her up, or she’ll cut ties with us."
"We certainly have to go for this," Gu Qibao nodded, then said to Di Mingjue, "We won’t be joining you for dinner."
As soon as she said that, she pushed Di Mingjue away, took Nangong Ran’s hand, and they both ran off.
Di Mingjue couldn’t stop the two mischievous girls before they dashed off like two rabbits running for their lives.
Di Mingjue was left baffled, and soon, his brows twisted together in displeasure. Unsettled by her audacity, this impudent girl had left after he backed her up!
It irritated him enormously. How could it not?
It made him feel like he had been used and disposed of.
That’s why he shouldn’t be friendly towards her. The more he was, the more arrogant she beca.
He reached for his phone intending to call Gu Qibao, but Di Mingzhe called him, saying there was a dinner he should attend that night.
Annoyed, Di Mingjue replied to his ssage with two words: "Not going."
Just as he was about to hang up, Di Mingzhe said, "Whether or not you want to, you have to co. An ambassador from C country is visiting. You, Di Mingchen, and I will have to et him."
Disgruntled, Di Mingjue frowned and eventually said, "Alright."
...
anwhile, Gu Qibao had quickly pulled Nangong Ran out of Di Mingjue’s office and shoved him into a car. Checking her watch she yelled, "Drive quickly, we’ll have just enough ti to pick up Xuanxuan and grab dinner."
Nangong Ran leisurely started the car, looked at her, and said, "Even Bo Chenghe isn’t in a hurry. Why are you?"
Gu Qibao said nothing, Nangong Ran glanced at her and chuckled creepily, "I must say Gu Qibao, quite impressive! Leaving the Duke hanging and worrying about kneeling on durian when you get back. Impressive!"
