The Billionaire's Mischievous Sweetheart-Chapter 404 - 401: Being Able to Accompany Him

He looked at her, patiently guiding her, truly wishing for Hua Xiaomo to be happy. A long time ago, he had made a promise in his heart to ensure Hua Xiaomo’s happiness.

Although the person by Hua Xiaomo’s side wasn’t him, what could he do about that? As long as Hua Xiaomo was happy, making some sacrifices didn’t matter to him.

And now it seemed his sacrifices had indeed been rewarded, because Yuan Youya was truly an understanding, gentle, and delightful young woman. She also felt very happy being with him, and she was pregnant with their child. Before long, he would become a father; he, too, could have a more complete family.

He enjoyed the feeling of being a father and the sensation of having this small family. Consequently, he was very satisfied with his current marital life and did not wish to make any other changes. However, when it came to Qi Longbing, Qi Lingfeng felt his brother’s marital life had been quite tumultuous.

Qi Longbing had been wholeheartedly in love with Hua Xiaomo, and that in itself was fine. However, due to the complexities and difficulties they encountered, their relationship faced many obstacles. Now, Hua Xiaomo had their daughter, Candy—who was also Qi Longbing’s daughter—and she was already five years old.

This happiness was exceptionally precious for both of them, so Qi Lingfeng felt they should set aside some of their personal perspectives and prioritize considerations for the child. He particularly thought about Hua Xiaomo. If she could consider things from Candy’s perspective and reflect more deeply, what would it be like if Candy could return to her biological father? Perhaps with this viewpoint, Hua Xiaomo might entertain some new ideas!

Hua Xiaomo shook her head awkwardly and then said nothing more. A trial marriage? That’s simply too far-fetched. Fine, I don’t need to do that, she thought, yet she was still grateful that Qi Lingfeng could consider these issues from her perspective.

"Yes, Xiao Mo, you really should consider these issues," Qi Lingfeng said again, his words filled with concern.

Hua Xiaomo shook her head and then remained silent. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

After a while, she finally said, "Qi Lingfeng, thank you, but I really don’t need to. My daughter and I are living well together; we truly don’t need to make any changes."

Soon, the telephone on the table rang. Hua Xiaomo picked it up.

"Chairman, may I bring in the documents you requested?" It was the voice of Secretary Xiao Qing.

"Yes, Xiao Qing, come in," Hua Xiaomo said.

Xiao Qing quickly entered the chairman’s office with the documents. When she saw the handsome man, her face lit up with a smile. I didn’t expect another handsome man to appear! Hua Xiaomo is always surrounded by so many good-looking men—first Qi Longbing, then Qi Lingfeng, she thought. They all seem to have the surname Qi... Could they all be from the Qi Family?

Xiao Qing was slightly doubtful and stared at Qi Lingfeng for a good while.

Hua Xiaomo looked at Xiao Qing, then at Qi Lingfeng.

"This is my secretary, Xiao Qing, and this is Qi Longbing’s brother, Qi Lingfeng," Hua Xiaomo quickly introduced them, then added to Xiao Qing, "Xiao Qing, please entertain Qi Lingfeng. Show him around the company, and if there are any expenses, the company will reimburse you."

"Okay," Xiao Qing said, then proceeded to escort Qi Lingfeng out of the Purple Demon Immortal Inquiry Company.

Qi Lingfeng found the young woman Xiao Qing quite adorable and couldn’t help but ask, "Why does your chairman only hire young women who haven’t graduated yet?"

"No, that’s not right; I have graduated, Mr. Qi. Do I look like a young woman who hasn’t graduated?" Xiao Qing responded innocently, her face beaming with a pure and sunny smile that made her look exceptionally charming.

"Oh, you’ve already graduated? You look like you’re eighteen!" Qi Lingfeng said with a smile.

"Mr. Qi, you’re really joking; I’m actually twenty-two," Xiao Qing said, her heart fluttering. I can’t believe it! Every member of the Qi Family is so handsome and wealthy. They’re all so pleasing to the eyes!

Qi Lingfeng easily saw through the young woman’s thoughts. She’s quite transparent, but I don’t mind, he mused. Young women these days are truly naive. How could they possibly withstand the flirtations of Young Masters like us, especially those so inexperienced with the ways of the world?

It was also quite a coincidence that just as the two exited the office building of Purple Demon Immortal Inquiry, they happened upon a luxury car speeding their way.

The luxury car came to a halt in front of them, and out stepped a dashing man in a white suit and sunglasses.

"Ha, Brother, I didn’t expect you to come," Qi Lingfeng greeted Qi Longbing, surprised by his quick arrival. He had just seen him at the hotel, and now he was already outside the Purple Demon Immortal Inquiry building.

Qi Longbing glanced at Qi Lingfeng, then at the young woman next to him, smiled faintly, and after a moment said, "Have you seen Xiao Mo? How is she?"

Qi Lingfeng’s lips curled into a smile. He glanced at the young woman beside him, who looked somewhat embarrassed but still tactfully moved to the side, as if afraid of eavesdropping on their conversation.

"Brother, what do you think of *her*?" Qi Lingfeng countered, nodding towards Xiao Qing, instead of directly answering Qi Longbing’s question about Xiao Mo.

Qi Longbing turned to Xiao Qing, who was standing aside, and with an amused expression, he asked Qi Lingfeng, "You’re already married and about to become a father. I am preparing to divorce. Why bring her up? What’s the point?"

"It’s perfect, Brother! Didn’t you say you want a divorce? Since you’re divorcing, you’ll have more options. Of course, you could consider Xiao Qing! I find this young woman to be innocent, trustworthy, honest, and importantly, very decent. I believe she’d fall head over heels for you without any complicated schemes needed, becoming so madly in love with you she couldn’t bear to be parted."

Qi Lingfeng said this jokingly, but Xiao Qing didn’t hear any of it because she was standing far enough away.

Qi Longbing’s entire expression turned stern. "No chance," he uttered.

Qi Lingfeng chuckled, looking at him. "That’s my brother for you. You’d probably only ever be this serious and devoted when it comes to Xiao Mo, right? Besides Hua Xiaomo, there’s no other woman in this world you could possibly like, correct?"

"I’m not like you," Qi Longbing replied. "Besides Hua Xiaomo, you were able to meet Yuan Youya; you could fall in love with her. But it’s not the same for me. Apart from Hua Xiaomo, I won’t meet anyone else. Even if I do meet other women, I won’t be moved, because I’m different from you."
