“Then, I’ll accompany you for a while,” Gu Xin said.
Di An had been tolerating it.
There were things about Gu Xin that he did not understand.
“I just sent Lu Manman off, and Mo Yuanxiu has left with her. I don’t think she and that scumbag are a good match, but sometimes, I feel good seeing them together,” Gu Xin mumbled to herself.
Di An did not say a word.
“No matter what, Manman and I have found our place. What about you? Are you still alone after all these years?” she asked him.
He endured the churning in his stomach and finally looked up.
When he looked up, she saw that his face was unusually pale.
When Di An was drunk, he was different from the rest and would be scarily pale.
“We should let nature take its course.” He forced a smile, then said to her, “You don’t have to feel bad about me. It’s not that I don’t want to get involved with other women. It’s just that I haven’t found someone I like yet.”
Gu Xin bit her lip.
After a moment of silence, she said, “Di An, Manman told me just now that we can continue being friends. I know that I can’t do it anymore. I can pretend that we’re not related at all and that I don’t even remember giving you my first kiss. But Di Yi wouldn’t. He wouldn’t want to see us have anything to do with each other.”
Di An nodded and smiled. “Mm, I know. I wouldn’t want the woman I like to have dealings with men who harbor ulterior motives on her.”
“I’m really selfish. I’m very stubborn when it comes to relationships. I feel that relationships should be clean and pure. Manman asked me whether I would stand on her side if she and Di Yi had a conflict of interest. In my world, other than emotional entanglements, nothing else will affect my feelings for anyone,” Gu Xin said a little incoherently.
Actually, Di An knew what she meant.
As their relationship was now intertwined, they could no longer be friends.
He smiled.
How could this not be good?
He nodded. “I will leave Wen City as soon as possible.”
Gu Xin felt like she was being selfish.
But she was just that selfish. If Di Yi and Di An were placed in front of her, she would choose Di Yi without even thinking.
After all, she was living in the Di family’s villa after she got married to Di Yi. Naturally, she shared the same roof as Di An and could not tolerate such emotions. Given her straightforward personality, she had nowhere to hide.
“Thank you, Di An,” she said sincerely.
Di An did not seem bothered at all. His smile was still as clean as before.
Di An was actually very handsome. He had fair skin and was quiet and reserved. He was very popular with the girls when he was still in school. She remembered that when he first received a confession from a girl, his fair cheeks had turned red instantly. His appearance then… was a little hard to forget.
Memories were just memories.
Ever since she had chosen Di Yi, the others had become insignificant.
She left the washroom.
Her objective for coming back was not to check on Di An but to prevent Di Yi from seeing her with Di An at the Di family’s villa that night. Di Yi had told her very clearly that he did not like seeing her and Di An in the same frame.
Hence, she was here to tell Di An if he could leave the villa.
She had been very vague about it.
But Di An was just like that. He had been like this since he was young, always thinking for others.
She took a deep breath and walked out of Sleepless Charm.
