Love You for the Rest of My Life-Chapter 194 Brother Three, I Like You!
That little stinker is such a troublemaker, always carefree and untroubled.
Sigh! ๐๐ป๐ฎ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐๐๐๐ธ๐ซ๐๐ก.๐ฌ๐ธ๐
But she has become more gutsy, daring to publicly berate him mercilessly. Not bad!
The two arrived in the backyard, where they had grown up together.
Di Xiaxia, feeling particularly lively, excitedly raises both her hands, runs to a tree, places her hands to her mouth and shouts at the tree, "Brother, I love you!"
Although her voice is loud, itโs impossible to hear from the main house with all the noise and music.
Di Mingjue doesnโt respond. He never likes this kind of situation, especially when dealing with someone he dislikes.
After her shout, Di Xiaxia turns around, her smile is sweet but her eyes reveal a bitter taste, "Brother, Iโve liked you since we were kids, for twenty years now."
Although everyone in the family knows this, she had never formally confessed to Di Mingjue before, as if it was an official confession.
A very sincere confession, yet he remains expressionless.
The saddest thing in the world is, in the best years of your life, I loved you, but you simply watched it all coldly from the side.
Di Mingjue looks at her, his icy eyes showing no ripples. But he finally nods, saying, "I know."
He stands to leave after speaking but Di Xiaxia steps in his way.
Di Mingjueโs face turns cold. His breathtakingly beautiful eyes are silent, his sturdy jaw showing an absolute hardness and his thin lips are tightly compressed, giving off a warning. He has an imposing presence that intimidates Di Xiaxia.
"Iโm not done speaking." Di Xiaxia gathers her courage.
"Hmm, then continue." Di Mingjue tonelessly replies.
"But you donโt like me." Di Xiaxia bitterly smiles, "You havenโt liked me for twenty years."
"Xiaxia..." For the first time, Di Mingjue seriously addresses this issue with her.
"Love isnโt reciprocally obligatory. Just because you like me, doesnโt mean I can reciprocate. Iโm married now, and Iโll always only be your brother."
His words are direct and clear, without unnecessary words.
Or perhaps he doesnโt even want to say an unnecessary word.
Di Xiaxia takes a deep breath, holding back her tears, "I know! I know youโve never liked me, but, Brother, do you like her? Do you like Gu Qibao?"
She eagerly looks up at Di Mingjue.
"I do." Di Mingjue confidently says the two words. Thinking about how she previously publicly berated him in such an outrageous and vicious manner, he canโt help but give a faint smile, adding, "I like her very much."
"Ha..." Di Xiaxia laughs, yet her eyes brim with bitterness. How much pain his smile caused her, he will never understand.
With a resigned nod, Di Xiaxia says, "I get it now."
After speaking, she takes a deep breath, tearfully yet with a hint of smile in her eyes, she looks at Di Mingjue, "Thatโs wonderful, my Brother is finally in love. From now on someone will take care of him." Then she adds, "I will also be relieved."
"Youโll also find your own love." Di Mingjue says emotionlessly, not knowing how to comfort her.
"Yes!" Di Xiaxia nods and mutters to herself, "I believe I will."
"Alright now." Di Mingjue gives her shoulder a pat, "Go back inside, stay with Mother."
As Di Mingjue goes to leave, Di Xiaxia abruptly grabs him.
Puzzled, Di Mingjue turns back and raises his eyebrow.
"Brother." Di Xiaxia takes a deep breath and speaks her final request, "Can you hug me?"
Di Mingjue frowns and repeats himself, "Thatโs not appropriate."
"But I want to hug you!" As she says this, Di Xiaxia throws herself into his arms, hugging him tightly, "Brother, I beg you, just once, donโt scold me, once this is over I wonโt pester you again."
His body stiffens, intending to push Di Xiaxia away, yet her words make him hesitate for a few seconds.
