Out of respect for Director Song, DX went to the dinner with his mother and Song Qiao .
Throughout the dinner, his mother kept trying to put Song Qiao on a pedestal .
DX merely listened as he waited for Kai Xin to reply him .
However, when he saw the message, he was a little disappointed .
[Hey, I have something to do tonight . I'll see you tomorrow at work . Stay away from other women and don't forget who's your boss . ]
When he saw the last sentence, he chuckled .
"Right, honey? Qiao Qiao is such a delightful young lady . "
DX looked up and saw his mother waiting for his reply . To avoid being nagged, he nodded as he took sip of red wine .
He glanced down at the wine, "This is . . . "
"It's one of your favorites . I told Qiao Qiao before and she remembers it . What a caring girl, right?"
"Mum . . . " sighed DX . He downed the drink and glanced at his watch before saying, "I have to go home earlier tonight . I told the kids that I would tuck them in . "
"Well, we are almost done here . Why don't you send Qiao Qiao home?"
"Where's her driver?"
"I told Old Song to let him off early . "
DX frowned, "Mum . . . "
Old Madam Du warned DX with her eyes that said, "You better send her back . "
Having used to his mother's pushiness, he sighed and accepted his fate .
Turning to Song Qiao, he said, "Let's go . I'll send you home . "
Once Old Madam Du left the premise, the two got into the car and drove off .
During the journey, DX barely glanced at her . In order to get him to talk, Song Qiao kept asking him questions which he always replied with the shortest answers .
"XiAn, Old Madam Du and my father . . . "
DX knew what was coming and interrupted her, "Qiao Qiao . . . I don't care what my mother and your father are planning . I would not marry you . You are like my younger sister . "
Glancing down at her fingers, she asked meekly, "Am I that repulsive?"
"No, it's just that I'm in love with someone else . "
Song Qiao heard the change of tone . His voice softened when he said he was in love with someone else .
With a sorrowful voice, she asked, "XiAn, why won't you give me a chance? I've been in love with you since I was a little girl . "
"Qiao Qiao, I've known you since you were in your diapers . I could never think of you as anything else other than my younger sister . "
"XiAn . "
DX pulled to a stop right in front of her mansion . He turned to her and said, "Qiao Qiao, I'll find you a man that is more worthy of your love . You need to forget about me . "
"Never!" cried Song Qiao .
As tears fell, she said, "You have the right to like someone else just like I have the right to like you . I'd never give up on you . "
She took him by surprise and kissed him on the lips .
Before DX can do anything, she got out of the car and said, "I'll walk in . It's safe from here onwards . "
After she left, DX wiped his mouth angrily .
He felt bad when he saw her tears and was too stunned to move when she kissed him .
He wiped his mouth again before looking at the reflection of his lips on the rearview mirror, "This is disgusting . . . "
Picking up his phone, he called Old Mo, "Prepare a mouthwash for me . I'm coming home now . "
Without waiting for a reply, he hung up and started the car .
