The Billionaire's Mischievous Sweetheart-Chapter 410 - 407: Your mouth is really sweet

She didn’t look at all like a girl who had become a mother; she was truly remarkable, excellent, and strong.

"Qi Longbing, you sure have a sweet mouth," Hua Xiaomo said with a faint smile, not saying anything further. Something crossed her mind, and she rummaged through her purse for her phone. Sure enough, there were several missed calls; oh, they had all been forwarded to voicemail.

Hua Xiaomo narrowed her eyes and looked at him. "Qi Longbing, did you mess with my phone and set it to forward calls to voicemail? No wonder my phone hasn’t rung at all today."

"When you’re with me, just enjoy your time out. I don’t want you to be so preoccupied with work that you forget about me and our daughter," Qi Longbing said, voicing a genuine complaint. He truly had neglected Candy. How could he even consider sending Candy to a boarding school? Boarding schools were for children left behind by migrant worker parents, not for their daughter.

"Fine, I can’t win an argument against you," Hua Xiaomo said, no longer arguing with him, her thoughts returning to some matters at the company. "Qi Longbing, I’m heading back to the office. If you need to tell me something, call me tonight, okay? Don’t call me during the day, alright? Let’s all stick to our agreement, shall we?"

"Alright, I know I’m just your secret lover for now," Qi Longbing said with a smile, watching Hua Xiaomo leave.

He already had a perfect idea in mind; he would definitely give her a surprise.

Hua Xiaomo left, but Qi Longbing’s final glance made her feel somewhat uneasy. She always felt he was brewing some sort of plot. But what could she say?

He was actually using their daughter to blackmail her; she was truly speechless. She couldn’t afford to lose custody of her daughter. Candy was her life; how could she lose Candy? Moreover, Long Bing was really despicable for using Candy’s custody rights to threaten her, to pressure her into marrying him.

Alas, it was such a headache. She really didn’t want to get trapped in this wealthy family’s marriage, but she had no other choice. If she didn’t get entangled, now she had also become his contract lover. And at this moment, he was also making a fuss about divorcing Pan Yutong. But on second thought...

She truly didn’t believe that Pan Yutong would agree to divorce Qi Longbing so quickly. Therefore, whether Qi Longbing could actually get a divorce from Pan Yutong was still questionable. Undoubtedly, though, she would be mistaken by others as the third party. They would think she had interfered in their marriage; who knows how others would view her!

She felt so frustrated, but what was the use of being frustrated? Things could only continue this way. Besides, this one-year contract was long enough. Moreover, Qi Longbing’s claim that he would divorce Pan Yutong also concerned her future and Candy’s. Just imagine, if Qi Longbing and Pan Yutong did divorce, then he would definitely demand that she marry him.

If she refused to marry him, he would surely make a big issue out of Candy’s custody. This would put her in an impossible situation, an intolerable state of indecision for her. But what choice did she have now?

It was like she was riding a tiger and couldn’t get off. Ugh, it seemed she had no way to resist Qi Longbing. It was so frustrating! Was she really out of options? She truly needed to come up with a foolproof plan.

She had promised another man that when she recovered, she would register their marriage, and she had also promised to give them a good future, for him to be Candy’s father—all these were her promises to Zi Yunsui. How could she go back on her word now?

She felt that if she reneged on her promise, she really wouldn’t be acting like a company chairman. Well, now that things had come to this point, there was no other way but to take it one step at a time.

Alright, first of all, even if Qi Longbing wanted to be with her, he must first resolve his marriage issue with Pan Yutong. Only once that was resolved would he be qualified to marry her, right?

Alright, then she would wait and see if he could resolve this issue. Or perhaps he couldn’t manage to resolve it at all, which would mean she wouldn’t have to marry him, right? So, the problems she was dwelling on were just baseless worries. It was better to actually wait and see what move he made.

Hua Xiaomo quickly drove her luxury car away and returned to her company. As she arrived, she happened to see two people strolling by the roadside. They were none other than Xiao Qing and Qi Lingfeng. Xiao Qing was carrying quite a few shopping bags, all filled with what looked like high-end, exquisite items. It wasn’t clear what they were, but they were evidently branded shoes and women’s clothing.

Hua Xiaomo watched Qi Lingfeng laughing and talking with Xiao Qing. Now she began to wonder if Qi Lingfeng had designs on Xiao Qing. But no matter what, Qi Lingfeng was a married man. Moreover, he had said his wife was already pregnant. Ugh, she really couldn’t stand men having affairs while their wives were pregnant—it was truly intolerable.

However, she herself had asked Xiao Qing to accompany Qi Lingfeng. But regardless, Xiao Qing should have some self-awareness. Because, despite everything, Qi Lingfeng was different from Qi Longbing.

Qi Longbing’s past reputation as a playboy was somewhat understandable, but Qi Lingfeng wasn’t that kind of person. How could he be so casual?

Moreover, Qi Lingfeng should have told Xiao Qing that he was already married. Since he was married, why was he buying these things for Xiao Qing? Suddenly, Hua Xiaomo realized it was very likely Qi Lingfeng who had bought these items for Xiao Qing.

Hua Xiaomo continued to drive, following them. She noticed Qi Lingfeng took Xiao Qing to a hotel. Oh my God, were they planning to get a room?

Hua Xiaomo quickly pressed the accelerator, drove up beside them, then got out of her car. She smiled at the two, her expression clearly indicating she had caught them red-handed, about to go to a hotel for an affair.

"What a coincidence, Qi Lingfeng. Where are you planning to take Xiao Qing?" Hua Xiaomo asked. She couldn’t bear the thought of the Second Young Master of the Qi Family taking her secretary to get a room.

Yes, she really couldn’t stand it. Besides, Qi Lingfeng was already married. How could he be philandering like this? It was utterly unbearable. He wasn’t like this before. How had he changed so much? He was really so different from his past self.
