Di Mingjue noticed that Gu Qibao had gotten more audacious, openly countering her rival. So, he didn’t interfere but was dragged off to whisper with some others, including Nangong Jin.
Nangong Jin and the rest wouldn’t dare play cards with Di Mingjue. Absolutely not! Playing with him was akin to asking for humiliation!
But they had a harsher tactic in mind, that was, to provoke our innocent Third Young Master of the Di Family.
Nangong Jin was the first to goad, casually taking a drag of his cigarette, and elegantly said, "Third Young Master, you’ve seemed off lately, somewhat burdened?"
Di Mingjue hummed coldly, his face filled with disgust as he looked at Nangong Jin, "even you can see that I’m burdened?"
"Of course." Nangong Jin replied with a sneaky smile. "As someone who’s seen it all, how could I not recognize it? Do you want me to give you some advice?"
Di Mingjue gave him a side-eye and retorted, "pearls do not emerge from a dog’s mouth."
He didn’t believe that Nangong Jin possessed any real solution, after all, Nangong Jin had never killed anyone before.
Nangong Jin chuckled, viciously putting out his cigarette in the ashtray, and said cynically, "Fine, if you don’t trust me, then slowly simmer in your bitterness; there’s still a year left anyway."
Just mentioning this gave Di Mingjue a headache.
Glaring fiercely at Nangong Jin, he stood up to leave. He didn’t want to stay here and be ridiculed.
Meanwhile,
Gu Qibao and Di Xiaxia were constantly losing in cards. Admittedly, Di Xiaxia had pretty good card skills.
Gu Qibao seldom played cards, so she was simply unable to beat Di Xiaxia, which irked her greatly.
She had a hard time putting into words how she felt about Di Xiaxia. On one hand, she didn’t think Di Xiaxia was the type of woman who was two-faced, playing dirty tricks behind people’s back.
On the other hand, she did feel slightly uncomfortable, perhaps Di Xiaxia’s blatant straightforwardness made her feel uneasy.
Every time Di Xiaxia freely mentioned the man she had been nurturing for over twenty years, it didn’t sit well with Gu Qibao.
