Chapter 2630 - 2631: But I Like Your Mischief

He actually remembers so clearly, and seeing herself this sleazy way really makes her feel so helpless.

Nangong Xiao felt defeated, like she wanted to cry but couldn’t.

Finally, she couldn’t help but ask, "What do you really want? I’ve already said it’s my fault. You know me; when I was younger, I was wild and free, always messing around. I really didn’t mean anything by it, honestly, I swear!"

Nangong Xiao raised her hand as if taking an oath, but Di Yimo suddenly reached out and grabbed her hand, looking at her with a few traces of sternness, "But I like it when you mess around. I like however you mess around. What I don’t like is the way you are now, do you know that?!"

"What way am I now?" Nangong Xiao couldn’t help but blurt out.

"Distancing yourself from me, keeping away from me, ignoring me, repeatedly drawing lines between us!" Di Yimo looked into Nangong Xiao’s eyes, his voice gradually tinged with a bit of anger.

If it’s anger, it would be more of feeling wronged.

Indeed, it felt a bit unfair, not sure when it started, maybe two or three years ago.

Nangong Xiao gradually grew up, becoming a big girl, which should have been something to celebrate. But little by little, she began to pull away from him.

And repeatedly mentioned the generation gap, the age difference, which made him very unhappy. Very unhappy!

Di Yimo’s questioning left Nangong Xiao a bit stunned, but after a moment, she slowly spoke, "What I said is the truth, whether you accept it or not, it’s an unchangeable fact. The truth is, I’m indeed older than you, our generation gap is growing deeper, so it’s normal that we can’t play together.

Also, in terms of seniority, I’m a generation above you. I’m on the same level as your mommy, your aunt, and your second mom, do you understand?! Di Yimo, do you really want to force me to make it so clear?"

"I know all that, I know it’s a fact, an unerasable fact, but Nangong Xiao, what are you afraid of? I don’t mind, so why do you?" Di Yimo spoke plainly.

Nangong Xiao couldn’t help but roll her eyes, "Di Yimo, you’re so young, aren’t you? Feeling first love already? Do you know what it feels like to like someone? Do you really know? And besides, how old are you now? Are you in such a rush to talk about love with me? Stop kidding around, okay?"

Di Yimo looked at her, slowly releasing her hand, and then continued, "I obviously know what it feels like to love someone. You don’t need to care about how old I am; liking someone simply for liking should be allowed, shouldn’t it?"

"Can you promise you’ll always like me?" Nangong Xiao couldn’t help but smile, "We’re both still young; what’s the point of saying we like each other? Should we be together right away? Don’t you think it’s a bit unrealistic? And what about the future, can you promise that you’ll still like me after you grow up?

If you can’t promise, why pursue it now? Doing this will only make your mommy uncomfortable, and my mother troubled, and by that time, we might not even be friends anymore!"

The meaning in Nangong Xiao’s words was actually quite clear; she and Di Yimo are still too young now, what are they talking about being together?

There are still so many variables in the future; who can guarantee that holding hands means a lifetime?

Besides, they’re really too young; maybe the current liking is really just simple liking, and not the lifelong companion kind of liking.
