The Billionaire's Mischievous Sweetheart-Chapter 449 - 446: Forgot the Promise to Him

At this moment, his heart ached with a touch of sorrow and pain. He knew that when Hua Xiaomo spoke like that, she had completely forgotten her promises to him. It was impossible for them to be together anymore, nor was it possible for them to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get their marriage certificate. Yet, he felt so distressed. Once they had been together, they had been so in tune with each other. But now, he could only watch helplessly as she left him and threw herself into the arms of another man.

Hua Xiaomo gazed at the look in Zi Yunsui’s eyes, seeing the faint sorrow there. She didn’t know how to comfort him; all she could do was awkwardly turn her head back towards Ye Xiangxue and say, "Ye Xiangxue, please take good care of yourself and Zi Yunsui. I need to get back to the office now. If anything comes up, just give me a call, okay?"

"Alright, Xiao Mo, then head back quickly. I can take good care of Zi Yunsui here, and I believe he will be discharged from the hospital soon and be able to return to work at the company. Then you won’t have to work so hard," Ye Xiangxue told Hua Xiaomo.

Her eyes shimmered brightly. Deep down she knew that Hua Xiaomo was suffering greatly. Hua Xiaomo always felt guilty towards Zi Yunsui, who had always had affection for Hua Xiaomo. However, it was the intervention of Qi Longbing that made it impossible for their relationship to continue. No matter what, she felt that Hua Xiaomo liked Qi Longbing, and if Hua Xiaomo could be with Qi Longbing, those two would be the happiest. If they were happy, then she should genuinely bless them. She believed that must be what Zi Yunsui was also thinking deep down.

Soon after, Hua Xiaomo left Tianhe Hospital, but her thoughts surged like a tide. She thought of Zi Yunsui, Ye Xiangxue, and Qi Longbing—all the people around her, giving her a complex mix of feelings.

Especially when she remembered her promise to Zi Yunsui that once he woke up, she would marry him and then go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get their marriage certificate. But now she was incapable of facing this issue. Zi Yunsui hadn’t mentioned it, and she felt too embarrassed to talk about it. So it seemed to be an unspoken agreement to let this memory fade and be forgotten, which might be the best way for both of them.

However, she had indeed shared a night with Zi Yunsui. It was a night when he was barely lucid, and he seemingly mistook her for Qi Longbing. Regardless, something physical had happened between them. Thinking back to that time, she still blushed with embarrassment and clearly remembered the soreness her body felt the next day.

It was because of that physical encounter with Zi Yunsui that, after several days of careful consideration, she decided she would marry him. But later on, she could never have imagined that Zi Yunsui would be involved in a car accident, causing the feelings she had painstakingly settled on to change once again.

At this time, Qi Longbing entered the picture, reigniting the feelings for Qi Longbing that she just couldn’t forget.

Now her heart was filled with thoughts of Qi Longbing. She couldn’t forget the moments they had shared together. If Qi Longbing could divorce Pan Yutong, then she would take Candy and be with him.

Hua Xiaomo drove back to the company and went straight to her office. Sitting in her chair, she pulled out the engagement ring from her drawer. It was the ring that Zi Yunsui had given her. However, at this moment, it seemed somewhat inappropriate for her to keep it. She felt that she needed to find an opportunity to return it, as she had already made a new decision.

She shouldn’t drag out the other’s feelings any longer. She had to let Zi Yunsui make his own new choices. Perhaps he would end up with Ye Xiangxue. Ye Xiangxue took care of him when he woke up, and it seemed that Ye Xiangxue loved him very much. If the two of them could be together, perhaps they would also be happy.

As Hua Xiaomo pondered, she wondered how to return the ring to Zi Yunsui.

「And on the other end, in City A.」

Qi Longbing had returned to the Qi Imperial Court, but he did not see Pan Yutong. Instead, he saw his brother, Qi Lingfeng, who was also busy at the company.

"Haha, Big Brother, you’re back? You came back so soon? I thought you would stay in City D for a while longer," Qi Lingfeng said with a smile, looking at Qi Longbing.

He really didn’t expect him to return so quickly. This speed was completely beyond his own expectations.

Qi Longbing looked at Qi Lingfeng, his handsome and captivating face holding a certain radiance. "Qi Lingfeng, come with me to the office."

After speaking, Qi Longbing returned to his own office, and Qi Lingfeng followed his footsteps into the office, then casually closed the door to the president’s office.

"Hehe, Big Brother, why didn’t you stay in City B and enjoy yourself for a couple more days?" Qi Lingfeng asked. He felt somewhat strange at the moment. However, he also didn’t dare to joke too much with him. He knew Qi Longbing must be very anxious about that pressing matter upon his return. But no matter how urgent it was, it was no use; such things had to be approached slowly and couldn’t be rushed.

"Stay a couple more days? I wish I could have stayed for N-days, but the point is, how did the matter I asked you to handle go? Did that woman agree?" Qi Longbing asked directly, his extraordinarily handsome face glowing.

At this moment, he didn’t want to say anything superfluous. All he wanted was the result he was looking for, which was to get his divorce certificate. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

He didn’t want to waste any more time or words here. He just wanted to quickly return to the embrace of Hua Xiaomo and his daughter, hold them both tight, give them the greatest happiness, and have them take their rightful place as members of the Qi Family.

"Uh, Big Brother, can you not ask this kind of question as soon as you come back? It’s really stressful, you know," said Qi Lingfeng with a smile. At this moment, he could feel the other’s tension and urgency.

But heaven knows he also wanted to smoothly handle these matters for him. However, some things just couldn’t be rushed.

"Cut the crap. Have you found her or not? What did she say? What’s her attitude? How much compensation does she want? Just give me a number," Qi Longbing said quickly, already out of patience. His handsome face was cast in shadow, and his eyes darkened ominously.

He couldn’t suppress his emotions. He felt that he simply couldn’t go on any longer. Continuing in this loveless marriage was suffocating, and moreover, it was a pain, an incomparable pain.
