Love You for the Rest of My Life-Chapter 1751: Women Really Are So Troublesome

"Why?" Di Mingjue asked in confusion, "What’s so wrong with telling her? If Second Brother goes on a date, Nangong Ran will naturally find out, won’t she?"

"Just don’t tell her in advance." Gu Qibao insisted.

Di Mingjue flicked her nose playfully, "Qibao, are you stupid? Nangong Ran and Second Brother aren’t even dating, why can’t she know?"

"You’re the stupid one." Gu Qibao glared at Di Mingjue, starting to teach him, "This is the thing, you men are just careless."

Di Mingjue blinked in confusion, unable to hold back a laugh, "Why exactly? Tell me."

"Sigh." Gu Qibao let out a sigh and then, speaking earnestly, said, "Let me tell you, don’t be fooled by Nangong Ran’s carefree attitude; deep down, she cares a lot about saving face, meaning she has strong self-esteem. Look, these days, even though she’s been joking around with Second Brother, they’ve been interacting more than before.

The most important thing is, last time when she was bragging with us, Mom accidentally overheard, and then I, Xiaxia, and Xuanxuan all called her ’Mom.’ She probably got really nervous and called out wrong. I’ve told you this before, right?"

"You did." Di Mingjue nodded honestly, "But what does this have to do with Second Brother’s matchmaking? You said it was a slip of the tongue; everyone just laughed it off."

"That’s why you don’t get it; the key point is right here!" Gu Qibao slapped her thigh, "Think about it, Nangong Ran mistakenly called her ’Mom,’ but then Mom sets up a date for Second Brother and not her. How would she feel? She’d definitely think she lost face, feel like Mom doesn’t like her, right? How awkward would it be for Nangong Ran and Second Brother to meet after that! They might not even meet."

Di Mingjue blinked, blinked, and blinked again, and finally pouted as he lay on the bed, "I really don’t understand you women. Why make everything so complex? If you like someone, you like them; if you don’t, you don’t. If Nangong Ran doesn’t like Second Brother, what difference does it make if he dates? What’s so awkward about it? Why wouldn’t they meet? Is it that serious?"

Di Mingjue really thought women were too troublesome, turning something simple into something as complex as national affairs, totally a waste of brain cells!

Hearing Di Mingjue’s words, Gu Qibao was displeased, "Why isn’t it serious? It’s totally serious. If it were you, where would you put your pride?"

"Gu Qibao, are you stupid?" Di Mingjue sat up from the bed, "If it were me and I liked Second Brother, and found out he was going on a date, I’d stop it. If I didn’t like him, his dating is none of my business. What’s the big deal with pride or awkwardness?"

Di Mingjue’s way of thinking was typical of guys: simple, direct, effective. If I like you and you go on a date, I’ll swoop in and steal you away. If I don’t like you, even if you get married, it has nothing to do with me. I’ll still be the same when we meet, not awkward or in a tough spot, because I don’t care about you. Why would I be awkward?

Gu Qibao: "..."

"Forget it, there’s no way to communicate with you." Gu Qibao glared at Di Mingjue.

Di Mingjue looked completely innocent, "What I said is the truth. If she likes Second Brother and finds out he’s dating, she should just tell him she likes him and take him away. If she doesn’t, I really don’t see the impact. You’re making such a mystery out of something so small. Women really are troublesome, overthinking everything! Always imagining strange, non-existent issues."
