One Useless Rebirth

Chapter 187: Who Wears the Pants in the Family (1)

Translator: Sissy That Walk

Killing intent filled Di Qiuhe’s eyes.

Di Bian thought he must have misread it, how could his eldest son, his first born, show disgust against him.

He rubbed his eyes and took a look again, Di Qiuhe looked normal, he forced a smile and smiled at Qiuhe, “How are you, my son?”

Di Qiuhe gripped his hands then he quickly relaxed, he let Di Bian in, thinking it was just a matter of time to deal with Di Bian. Now that Di Bian showed up at his door, he might as well rise to the occasion.

They both took a seat after they got in the room, Di Qiuhe poured Di Bian some water, couldn’t even bother to serve him tea. He just looked at Di Bian indifferently, guessing Di Bian’s intention, he was weighing the outcome if he told the truth to Di Bian, would if affect Fan Da’s plan?

Seeing Di Qiuhe’s indifference, Di Bian cursed Fan Da in the heart for sowing discord between father and son, while his fake smile got bigger, he asked, “Were you sleeping just now? Sorry if I woke you up. I heard you were about to shoot a new drama, that’s exciting, and also what’s your plan for Spring Festival?”

“Is this conversation going anywhere”, asked Di Qiuhe and he continued, “Quit beating around the bush please, I’m a bit busy, going to dinner with grandpa later.”

Di Bian was choked, he almost failed to keep his fake smile, then he sighed and looked at Di Qiuhe with concern, “Qiuhe, how come you are a changed person now, is this related to your grandpa?”

Di Bian then looked around the living room, he shook his head seeing the snacks and kettles He Bai bought for Di Qiuhe, then he said this using a condescending tone, “I know it, if your grandpa is genuine with you, how come he doesn’t invite you to live at his, how come you are living here? The building management here is not great, and you would for sure have some privacy issues... Qiuhe, come home with me, I have always kept your room for you, wouldn’t it be nice celebrating new year and Spring Festival with your father at your own home? I’m worried about you, you are here all by yourself, who’s gonna take care of you?”

Di Qiuhe felt nauseous listening to Di Bian, how dare he disapproved the snacks and kettle puppy got for him. He sneered, “Yeah, the building management is doing their job poorly.”

Di Bian was overjoyed hearing that, he was about to sow more discord when he heard Di Qiuhe said, “Look at them letting you in.” Di Qiuhe was sitting cross-legged, with his chin up and eyes looking down, he then continued, “I guess you are about to share you opinion on how my house is poorly laid out? To tell you the truth, grandpa had invited me to live with him, but my schedule would surely clash with his, so I turned him down, and after I moved in to this house, grandpa bought all the neighbouring houses so that I can have my privacy. Mr. Di, compared to the apartment you and Qin Li gave me in charity, which place do you think I prefer?”

Di Bian did not see that coming, he felt like he was slapped by the reality hard. He was still trying to save face for himself, “Yeah, I can tell the layout and decorations here are all very well-designed, I just, as a father, I’m always worried for my son.”

“And you put all the blame on my grandpa in a malicious way? Of course this place is well decorated, I do not need your opinion.” Di Qiuhe said in a sarcastic tone, then he touched the woven blanket on the sofa, recalled how his puppy snuggled on the sofa, his voice turned soft, “This place is decorated by a person who truly loves me, he made this place my home.”

He then looked at Di Bian, “While your house, is merely a place I want to get rid of from my memory, thanks to you and Qin Li, it’s a place full of cold and dark memories for me.”

Seeing Di Qiuhe’s stare, Di Bian could not help but stepped back, his heart was racing, he felt like Di Qiuhe had seen him through.

He of course thought “a person who truly loves me” was Fan Da, and his hatred against Fan Da had grown even more. He blamed everything on Fan Da, Di Qiuhe turning against him, he was on the verge of bankruptcy... those were all Fan Da’s fault.

“Qiuhe, you don’t get it.” He suddenly leaned forward, and his face turned clouded, he acted like now he was about to say something that he had been hesitating to say, “Fan Da is not a good person, he abandoned his own daughter when she was young thus he could travel around the world, he didn’t have a heart for his daughter, do you think he is now being genuine to you? He just wants to take advantage of you, he wants to use you, because now he is old he needs someone to take care of him, and he even sowed dis cord between us, don’t fall for that!”

“Falling for his money is way better than falling for your lip service.” Di Qiuhe looked Di Bian up and down, like he was looking at a laughing stock, then he smiled at Di Bian, “Travelling around the world? Ah, Di Bian, looks like you know nothing about it. Oh right, words have it that you have abandoned Qin Li and you have taken Di Xiasong away from her?”

Di Bian couldn’t figure out what Di Qiuhe meant, he was about to snap out when hearing Di Qiuhe addressing him by the name, but he still managed his fake smile on the face, “Qiuhe, Xiasong is my son, your half-brother after all, I know you don’t like him for what he had done to your friend, but can you please forgive him? And also, please rest assured, you always hold a more important position in my heart than him, you are always the young master of Huangdu. Don’t listen to Fan Da, don’t fall for him.”

Di Qiuhe only found Di Bian pathetic, the way he still repeating that nonsense.

He had been calculating on other people his whole life, yet he didn’t have one person around him that he could trust.

“You treat him as a son, while he treat you as a fat check.” Di Qiuhe felt he’d better let Di Bian know what was going on, so he asked directly, “Do you still remember Zeng Peizhong?”
