The Billionaire's Mischievous Sweetheart-Chapter 409 - 406: Make Yourself Single Again

So now, he only had one thing he could do: make himself single as soon as possible.

Then he could reclaim the right to pursue her, to be with her.

"Rest assured, no matter the cost, I will definitely divorce Pan Yutong. Xiao Mo, you know I love you. Do you know how deeply? That’s why I can’t let you leave me again. And Candy, I’ll keep her close to me as well. I’ll provide the happiest life for you and our daughter," Qi Longbing said, looking at Hua Xiaomo, unable to help but lean in again.

Hua Xiaomo turned her face slightly.

"Hua Xiaomo, I love you," Qi Longbing repeated.

Hua Xiaomo also replied, "I love you too."

Qi Longbing smiled.

Time passed, and when their passion finally subsided, they had both drifted into sleep. That night, Hua Xiaomo did not leave. She stayed in Qi Longbing’s hotel apartment, accompanying him the entire night.

Upon waking the next day, Qi Longbing saw that Hua Xiaomo was still asleep.

He loved this feeling, loved waking up to see her like this. It was truly wonderful. The dream he had the previous night was a good one too. In it, he dreamt of holding Hua Xiaomo’s hand as they entered the marriage hall, followed by a flower girl who was their daughter, Candy.

When Hua Xiaomo woke up, she saw the handsome man lying before her. How did she feel in that moment? It was as if she was seeing Prince Charming, returning to the days when she was a little girl dreaming. She couldn’t help but smile.

Seeing Hua Xiaomo so receptive, Qi Longbing’s heart burst with joy, and he gently asked, "Give me a son, Hua Xiaomo." He said it with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Hua Xiaomo’s heart clenched. She still remembered aborting a child of theirs, and now he was asking her to have another one with him?

"What’s wrong? You look nervous. Could it be that you’re already pregnant?" Qi Longbing asked with a smile, his hand reaching towards her stomach.

Hua Xiaomo’s hand under the blanket quickly caught his, her face flushing shyly. "How could that be? I’m still on birth control; I won’t get pregnant."

"What, you’re still taking birth control? Stop taking it, please. Have another one for me. I hope it’s a boy," Qi Longbing said, looking at Hua Xiaomo.

Hua Xiaomo couldn’t help but feel enveloped by his overwhelming love, finding herself irresistibly drawn in!

「Noon.」

It was only then that Qi Longbing let go of Hua Xiaomo. He got up and dressed, while Hua Xiaomo found herself too weak to get out of bed.

"Good thing it’s the weekend, eh? If it were a weekday, how would you manage to go to work?" Qi Longbing said with a laugh, looking at Hua Xiaomo’s languid form. He knew he had been too demanding.

But he loved this feeling. He felt she looked her most beautiful at this moment—delicate, like a porcelain doll on the verge of shattering, making him want to dote on her even more.

Hua Xiaomo looked at him and replied softly, "It’s you. You’re really exasperating, always so rough."

Qi Longbing, upon hearing this and seeing Hua Xiaomo’s expression, couldn’t help but laugh. "Let me give you a massage. Right, I want to go see my daughter. How about we stay at your villa tonight? I really don’t want to stay in hotels anymore; it feels too awkward, not like home at all."

"What? You staying at my place? No, no, you can’t stay at my place," Hua Xiaomo refused. How could she let Qi Longbing just move into her villa so brazenly?

Qi Longbing watched Hua Xiaomo with a smile and said nothing more. However, he wanted to give her a surprise, a very unexpected one.

"Xiao Mo, you get some sleep first. I’ll step out for a moment and will be back soon," Qi Longbing said, then leaned forward to kiss her forehead gently before leaving the room.

After that, Hua Xiaomo got up and went to the bathroom for a bath before coming out.

When she emerged, a new dress was placed beside her bed.

And Qi Longbing was conveniently sitting on the sofa nearby, watching TV.

"Why did you go and buy me a dress? Where are my own clothes?" Hua Xiaomo asked. Looking at him, her thoughts felt scrambled. He had actually gone to buy a dress for her early in the morning! What was he up to? Besides, didn’t he used to think she looked better in suits? At least those were more formal, more professional, and gave her more presence. After all, she was the chairman of a company, wasn’t she?

"When you’re with me, could you not dress so formally for a while? You should be a happy, joyful little woman. I bought you this dress because it might just satisfy the desires of the little woman in your heart. Try it on and see if you like it," Qi Longbing said with a smile, unable to hide the grin on his lips as he looked at Hua Xiaomo.

He felt this was his happiest moment. Being with Hua Xiaomo was his greatest joy, and their daughter Candy too. Suddenly, he thought of a question.

Hua Xiaomo looked at the dress. It was pure white and fairy-like. Then, without further refusal or words, she quickly took the dress into the bathroom to change. When she came out, the sight of her stunned the man sitting on the sofa.

"Wow, truly beautiful! You’re like a fairy fallen from the sky," Qi Longbing praised. Looking at her, it seemed all his Spiritual Energy was highlighted by the dress—no, rather, the dress highlighted her beauty, making her appear even more radiant with Spiritual Energy. Moreover, the glow on her delicate face was accentuated by the dress, making her look incredibly pure and beautiful. She was indeed a very pretty girl.

Why? Why is this happening? 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

Is it because he pities me? Pities me... destined to lose myself...

Why? Why am I thinking this way? Haven’t I already decided to stop at nothing?

This was the worst-case scenario she had prepared for in her heart. But why, now that it came down to it, did she consider giving up again?

Hua Xiaomo, what exactly are you thinking?

Confusion and turmoil began to stir in Hua Xiaomo’s heart, filling her with weariness and pain. What could she do to stop feeling this way?

She truly hated the person she was becoming—she had lost her sense of self; she no longer felt like herself.

Suddenly, that voice deep within her rose again.

Xiao Mo, Qi Longbing is as predatory as a wolf and fierce as a tiger. If he finds out you are with me, he will not spare either of us! You must find something to use against him! That’s the only way we can be together forever!
