The Billionaire's Mischievous Sweetheart-Chapter 417 - 414: Will You Believe Me?

"Xiao Mo, why aren’t you talking? Don’t you believe I can do it? I swear I can definitely achieve it. I will make both of you happy. Do you believe me?" The moment Qi Longbing made this oath to Hua Xiaomo, he really wished to give her the best things in the world, and Candy too—he would try his hardest to do just that.

He wouldn’t let Hua Xiaomo down, nor would he let Candy down. He would give them a good home; he would bring their family of three together for a happy life that would never see them part again.

Hua Xiaomo looked at him and, for some reason, still uttered those words. "President Qi, why do you torment yourself like this!" Her voice was soft, but her words hung clearly in the air. She didn’t know why she had to say them, but she did know that if she didn’t, her heart would feel uncomfortable.

She had promised another man, and regardless of whether Zi Yunsui would wake up, she felt her promises should be kept; otherwise, she would be betraying her own conscience.

After all, she and Zi Yunsui had been through a lot together, and it was Zi Yunsui who had stayed by her side through the difficulties in City B. She couldn’t forget what he had done for her, so she felt she owed him a promise.

She would wait for him to wake up, no matter when that happened; she would carry on waiting. But as for Qi Longbing, she hoped he could approach the matter rationally and let go of her and Candy. Because, no matter what, the past was the past, and even the entanglements of the present would eventually become history too.

What remained unaltered were the memories of the past and the sense of responsibility. Both she and Qi Longbing had obligations to maintain the current situation. After all, he was a man with a family, and she had also made promises to others. Therefore, she hoped they could both adhere to their responsibilities and not carelessly cross that line, as doing so would cause pain to many people, not just the two of them.

For instance, Old Master Qi would surely never approve of the divorce between Qi Longbing and Pan Yutong. If they divorced, it would cause incalculable losses to both their companies.

This was a consequence Old Master Qi would least want to see; Hua Xiaomo could imagine it even with her eyes closed.

But how could Qi Longbing’s adamant attitude not cause concern? He seemed determined to divorce Pan Yutong and then marry her. However, no matter what, she couldn’t marry him before he divorced Pan Yutong.

Because she had made a promise to another person, and then there was Candy. Candy really liked Zi Yunsui and wanted Zi Yunsui to be his dad. Therefore, for Candy’s sake, she would keep trying, no matter what the future held.

Qi Longbing looked into her eyes. He didn’t know what jumbled thoughts she might be having again, but he felt they should communicate more. Only then could he prevent her from having such wild thoughts. After a little while, he spoke softly.

"Xiao Mo, don’t overthink it, okay? I will fulfill what I’ve said. I will provide you and our daughter with a happy future. Do you believe me? It won’t take long—just a few days, maybe a few months at most—before I’ll come back to your side. I will marry you, Xiao Mo. So you don’t need to worry about anything. Just sit here Quite and wait, then prepare to be the bride and marry me, Qi Longbing. That’s my dream, Xiao Mo. Will you promise me?"

Qi Longbing finished his long speech. For a good while, Hua Xiaomo remained silent, staring intently into his eyes as if seeing straight through to his heart. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

She gazed into his soul, wondering if her own reflection was there.

Meanwhile, Qi Longbing resolved that, regardless, he would strive to fulfill this promise. He would definitely bring Hua Xiaomo and Candy back to his side, never to be parted from them again. Their family of three was destined to live happily together.

"Happiness? Is happiness really like this?" Hua Xiaomo felt somewhat bewildered. She looked into his eyes, which were very bright and full of spirit. Under that gaze, she felt herself slowly losing her sense of self.

She knew she couldn’t refuse him. At this moment, her own heart was stirred. She couldn’t deceive herself; she didn’t just not love Qi Longbing—she was already madly in love with him.

But that feeling was still not enough for them to be completely together.

And then there was Candy. Candy had his own future. As for whether Candy wanted him as a father, he suddenly had an idea: let Candy choose. But Candy wasn’t yet capable of such judgment, so he had to make the decision for them.

This was indeed quite difficult. But he didn’t want Candy to have too much exposure to the Qi Family’s complicated situation.

Hua Xiaomo stayed silent for a long time before finally looking at Qi Longbing.

"If you insist on doing this, then I have nothing more to say. I just hope you can think clearly about this issue. Moreover, Old Master Qi probably won’t agree to it either, will he? Let’s not even talk about whether you and Miss Pan can divorce; just me entering the Qi Family would likely make Old Master Qi strongly disapprove."

Yes, back then, she had deliberately run away, gone to America with Qi Lingfeng. And Old Master Qi might have been furious with her for it, right?

So, if she were to return now, it would likely provoke even more resistance from Old Master Qi. He would only end up disliking her more, and Candy as well.

So, rather than staying with the Qi Family and suffering, it would be better to leave and live their own happy lives. They didn’t need anyone’s charity, sympathy, or pity. They would make their lives beautiful on their own terms. That was her goal, her personal style. She didn’t like people bossing her around, nor did she like unreliable romances—those would make her feel as if she were falling into an unfathomable abyss.

Qi Longbing’s eyes darkened. After a moment, he said, "You don’t need to worry too much about Old Master Qi. I’ll take care of everything! I’ll consider these issues carefully, and I won’t let Old Master Qi oppose you and Candy. Besides, Old Master Qi really likes having grandchildren, doesn’t he?"

"If he knew Candy is my daughter, his own biological grandchild, he would definitely love Candy. So Old Master Qi will come to love you too!"
