The Billionaire's Mischievous Sweetheart-Chapter 463 - 460 Taking Care of Hua Xiaomo

And I myself am in dire need of Qi Lingfeng’s help.

Because only then would I have more energy to take care of Hua Xiaomo and our child, Candy.

Moreover, Candy is currently at a stage where she needs a lot of care. I also want to improve my own life and ensure Candy receives more fatherly love, so I can enjoy family happiness with Hua Xiaomo and Candy.

Qi Lingfeng’s involvement is very beneficial for our Qi Imperial Court. Not only has it improved our brotherly relationship, but it has also increased our communication. We’ve developed a tacit understanding regarding many situations and can discuss them.

Previously, I always made decisions alone, but now, with another person involved, I consider his feelings. Sometimes, listening to his opinion is also a form of help, isn’t it?

I have to admit that during the time I was away, Qi Lingfeng’s outstanding performance brought some progress to the Qi Imperial Court.

Although it wasn’t very obvious, and Qi Lingfeng still needs to strengthen his management skills, it’s truly impressive for someone not cut out for business—who didn’t study management or economics—to have achieved this much.

Clearly, Qi Lingfeng truly put his heart into it during this time. Perhaps he’s far from having enough experience, or seasoned enough experience, to be the CEO of the Qi Imperial Court. However, he’d have no problem as a new department manager. Of course, under my guidance, this younger brother of mine will surely develop rapidly.

"There are plenty of beds; pick any to sleep in. Just don’t disturb me and Yuan Youya," Qi Lingfeng said with a mischievous smile, casting a meaningful glance at Qi Longbing. To be honest, I feel like I’m becoming more in tune with him, my big brother.

Sometimes, our conversations are more casual, not as constrained as before. That feeling of constraint used to be very uncomfortable.

In the past, I always felt Qi Longbing was so outstanding, so far ahead he seemed unreachable. That might have indirectly caused me to feel inferior, which is probably why I thought of running away.

But no matter how much I tried to run away, I could never sever our blood ties.

After all, I’m his younger brother, and he’s my older brother. Finally, after so many years of estrangement, we’ve recovered our bond. It isn’t too late. If we only learned to cherish each other and communicate sincerely when we were old, that would have been too slow, too dull-witted, and even more regrettable. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"Haha, how amusing! You’re getting quite good with words, little brother. Don’t worry, your big brother won’t interrupt your intimate moments with your sister-in-law. However, for now, you’ll probably have to restrain yourself for a while," Qi Longbing said, laughing humorously.

Truth be told, I rarely joked around with him. I used to think we didn’t have much to talk about. But things have felt different lately, perhaps because Qi Lingfeng has genuinely helped me.

Yes, I paid too little attention to him before. I truly neglected him. But from this moment on, I will care more for this younger brother of mine.

"Right, Big Brother? That’s what I think too. But I believe I can hold back. At least until Yuan Youya gives birth to my child, I will remain faithful to her," Qi Lingfeng retorted, laughing humorously. The two brothers chatted for a while longer before returning to their respective rooms.

Qi Longbing entered a room. Looking at its warm and cozy decor, he was deeply touched by his brother’s thoughtfulness. Perhaps Qi Lingfeng had wanted me to come and stay for a long time.

That must be why this room, my room, was decorated exactly like the one I used to live in. I like simple black and white, so this room’s decor is also simple black and white—Hong Kong style, everything clear at a glance, without excessive complexity.

It was very pleasing to the eye. In that moment, Qi Longbing was genuinely moved and squinted his eyes.

A light seemed to emanate from his incomparably handsome face. Deep down, I was incredibly grateful to this younger brother of mine.

"I didn’t expect you to understand my hobbies and even my specific preferences so well. Nicely done, I really like rooms with this style of decoration," Qi Longbing said, a gentle smile gracing his handsome face.

"Our hobbies and tastes, Big Brother—haven’t you realized? Some of your hobbies and tastes happen to be mine too. Otherwise, how could we have both fallen for the same woman? Don’t you think so?" Qi Lingfeng said, having returned.

I couldn’t help but think of Hua Xiaomo again. What a fated, troublesome connection! I couldn’t stop myself from thinking about her. I didn’t know why. Perhaps it was a good thing that Big Brother was marrying Hua Xiaomo. At least then, I wouldn’t have to face that sense of distance anymore.

At the very least, Hua Xiaomo could enter the Qi Family, and I’d be able to see her every day. That would be a wonderful thing.

Of course, this ’wonderful thing’ I was thinking of was merely about silently watching over her and caring for her from afar.

"Qi Lingfeng, what are you trying to get at? Let me tell you, once Hua Xiaomo marries me, Qi Longbing, she will be your sister-in-law. You must fulfill your obligations to your sister-in-law and not dare to cross that boundary. Otherwise, do you know what the consequences will be? They’ll be far more devastating than a simple earthquake."

Qi Longbing warned again, looking at the tall, handsome man standing before him. In that moment, I truly felt suspicious. I saw the light on Qi Lingfeng’s face—a light that only appeared when Hua Xiaomo was mentioned.

I am a man; I understand how men think. It’s precisely because he has never had her that his heart continuously thinks of her, yearns for her. Perhaps he even cherishes the hope for something unattainable.

It’s this very mystique of the unobtained that keeps a man fantasizing. Of course, I must stop him from having such thoughts. Hua Xiaomo is destined to marry me and become his sister-in-law. Only then can my life with Candy get back on track.

"Haha, Big Brother, you’re really sensitive! I was just musing aloud; you took it so seriously? Honestly, I sincerely wish you and Hua Xiaomo happiness from the bottom of my heart. I hope you two can be happy together. Big Brother, you must hurry up and marry Hua Xiaomo, then bring that cute little girl, Candy, to live with you. She’s my little niece, and I’ll treat her well too!"
