Love You for the Rest of My Life-Chapter 28 Reconciliation

Besides, she thought that Di Mingjue might have feelings for Gu Qibao. After all, closeness leads to love, right? So she wanted to help Gu Qibao get a clue.

"Stop talking about him." Gu Qibao’s little face grew even more depressed. She’d rather not bring up Di Mingjue. Every time he was mentioned, Gu Qibao felt like crying herself unconscious in the bathroom.

Nangong Ran suddenly felt heartbroken, gripped Gu Qibao’s hand, "Qibao, I’m sorry, I was wrong, why don’t you slap me a few times."

As she spoke, Nangong Ran tried dragging Gu Qibao’s hand towards her own face.

"What are you doing?!" Gu Qibao gripped her hand tightly, looking upset, "Ranran, don’t do this."

"I mean it." Nangong Ran choked up, "I truly owe you an apology, you know I can be a bit clueless, I didn’t think it through. I saw you liked Bo Chengyan and thought the best would be to get you both drunk and put you two in a room. Ugh, I, I, my brain’s a pig’s!"

Nangong Ran slapped her own head, filled with regret.

"Okay, okay." Gu Qibao quickly grabbed Nangong Ran’s hand and sighed, "Let it be, what’s done is done. I’m not angry with you anymore."

While she was still a little annoyed with Nangong Ran, seeing her so regretful made her even more upset. Like she’d said, what’s done is done. Pointing fingers does no good.

And when she was being confronted by Bo Chengxin today, Nangong Ran didn’t hesitate to stand up for her.

"Even if you’re not angry at me, I’m still angry at myself," Nangong Ran said, wiping away a tear. "I messed things up for you so badly... I should be hit by a car--"

Gu Qibao suddenly covered Nangong Ran’s mouth, shaking her head, "Enough, Ranran, don’t say anything else. Let’s have a few drinks together."

"Alright!" Nangong Ran nodded, taking Gu Qibao’s hand. "Xiaoqi, don’t be afraid, I’m here for you, always!" 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

"Hmm." Gu Qibao’s grape-colored eyes welled up.

Everyone says Gu Qibao is a little devil, but only Nangong Ran knows her heart is kinder than anyone else’s.

Seeing her like this, Nangong Ran felt guilty. She bravely ordered food and drink, popping open the wine!

And what wine would that be? Of course, the most expensive one! Nangong Ran’s extravagance was exploding.

"Xiaoqi, it’s my treat today. Let’s max out the card before we leave!"

"Okay." Gu Qibao finally smiled.

As they ate and drank, both girls were cheerfully tipsy when Nangong Ran suddenly said, "The Duke told me to keep an eye on you."

"What..." Gu Qibao sprayed the food in her mouth all over, instantly flaring up, grabbing Nangong Ran and demanding, "What did you say? Watch me?"

"Calm down." Nangong Ran passed her a tissue to wipe her mouth, nodded affirmatively, "I went to the school board office to look for him in the afternoon. You weren’t talking to me, so I wanted him to put in a good word for me, so he agreed. Then he asked me to monitor your every move in school."

"So, you’re saying you’re now his... stooge?"

"Absolutely not!" Nangong Ran waved her hands, "Are you nuts? If I was siding with him, I wouldn’t tell you."

That seemed logical, so Gu Qibao nodded, insisting, "Nangong Ran, you better not betray a friend!"

"Of course." Nangong Ran nodded, "Don’t worry. Besides, you really don’t have anything worth snooping on. You just goof off in class and copy homework. You cheat during exams..."

"Can you stop talking about that!" Gu Qibao wanted to slap Nangong Ran to death.

"No can do, that’s just who you are." Nangong Ran affirmed, "I’m telling you this because I feel like the Duke might be into you."
