The Billionaire's Mischievous Sweetheart-Chapter 498 - 495: Afraid of No One
That powerful love is enough to make you fearless, because that powerful love alone is enough to make you very strong and decisive. Moreover, you won’t be afraid of anyone bullying you again; you can protect everyone you want to protect.
Qi Longbing fell silent for a moment, his stunningly handsome face glowing. He didn’t speak right away. However, he could feel the undulations in her voice—an unbearable rage. Simultaneously, his heart ached deeply. He hadn’t expected that after he left City B, Hua Xiaomo and their daughter had suffered such terrible grievances. Thinking of this, he felt he had let them both down.
"Xiao Mo, rest assured, I’ll come to City B immediately tomorrow. No matter what Pan Yutong plans to do, I won’t let her get her way. You are my woman, and she is my daughter; I will definitely protect you both and drive Pan Yutong away. Do you believe me?"
"Little Witch, you must believe me, because this time, I really can’t afford to lose you again. If all those times I let go, all those near misses, caused us to miss so many opportunities to be together, then this time I will not let go of your hand again."
Qi Longbing said these very pleasing words. Sometimes, he even found himself quite persuasive, especially when it came to matters of the heart and expressing his feelings. But only he truly knew what kind of person he was. In reality, he wasn’t good with words when it came to emotions. He kept his feelings buried deep, only showing his enthusiasm when he met the right person. And as it happened, Hua Xiaomo was the one he was looking for.
They had been through so much together. Sometimes, he truly felt it was destiny, as if they were meant to be and could never be parted. She loved him, and he loved her dearly.
Now, they also had Candy, the lovely fruit of their love. He hoped their family of three could be together forever.
Hua Xiaomo was silent for a while before replying, "Okay, I believe you, Qi Longbing. I hope you can truly take care of your own issues. That’s all. Goodbye."
After hanging up, Hua Xiaomo felt a heavy weight in her heart. She thought about many things. Pan Yutong probably wouldn’t let this go easily. But if she didn’t leave Qi Longbing, Pan Yutong would continue to harass Candy. She truly hated that woman, really hated Pan Yutong. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚
But no matter what, how could she allow her own daughter to suffer such grievances? That would be the biggest blow to her daughter. She was still so young and should be enjoying a happy childhood in kindergarten. She truly hadn’t anticipated that this time would be marred by such unpleasant incidents, all caused by Pan Yutong. No matter what, she would not let her daughter suffer any grievances.
After hanging up, Hua Xiaomo went to the living room. She sat staring blankly at the TV screen for a while. Suddenly, the doorbell rang. Hua Xiaomo walked to the door, opened it, and saw the man standing outside. Her gaze narrowed slightly.
Zi Yunsui quickly came inside. His gaze upon seeing Hua Xiaomo was full of distress, and he also seemed unwell. Out of concern, he said, "Xiao Mo, are you okay? I heard about the kindergarten incident, so I specifically came to check on Candy. Is she doing okay now?"
Hua Xiaomo looked at him gratefully, forced a smile, and replied, "Candy is in her room now. She’s fine. She’s gone to sleep under the care of her auntie."
Zi Yunsui’s eyes showed hesitation. As he looked at Hua Xiaomo, at that moment, he truly wanted to persuade her about some things—to convince her not to be so fixated on this matter. But he didn’t know how to convince her to listen. Hua Xiaomo was a very stubborn woman; she wouldn’t take his advice. If she had listened to him before, she wouldn’t have ended up with Qi Longbing. But now that she was with Qi Longbing, she was bound to bring harm to those around her, and the first victim was her own Candy.
The truth was just that. Candy had been harshly berated by Pan Yutong. When he learned about the kindergarten incident, he had been so worried! He had wanted to rush to their side immediately! He was terrified that Hua Xiaomo and Candy would be hurt. He desperately wanted to protect them both, to shield the mother and daughter from any further harm.
"Hua Xiaomo, why did something like this happen? Have you clearly considered what I told you before? I think perhaps you shouldn’t be with Qi Longbing anymore. Look how serious things have become today! If this continues, I really don’t know what might happen—the mental and emotional damage to Candy will be huge. Hua Xiaomo, I really think you should listen to me this time, okay?" Zi Yunsui said, looking at Hua Xiaomo earnestly.
He truly didn’t want her and her daughter to suffer any harm, because such harm was genuinely hard to bear. But unless she truly left Qi Longbing, this harm could not be stopped.
"I think it’s best if you don’t get involved in this matter. I’ve already made my decision. Thank you for caring so much about me, really, thank you. But right now, I’m fine," Hua Xiaomo replied with a forced smile. At that moment, she really didn’t know what to say. Perhaps anything she said would be useless. She just wanted to wait for Qi Longbing to quickly resolve his own issues. Once he sorted out his current situation, he could return to her and Tang Guo as soon as possible. Then he could protect her and Candy, ensuring they would never suffer harm from anyone again.
"Decision? What decision? Hua Xiaomo, please don’t be muddled any longer, okay? Qi Longbing is already married; what are you still doing with him? Don’t you feel aggrieved following him like this?"
"And never mind whether he can even get a divorce. Just his status alone means he has no right to be with you! Yet you’re bewitched by him, confused by him—that’s why you agreed to be with him again, right?" Zi Yunsui looked at Hua Xiaomo with a pained expression. He really didn’t want her to worry so much about this. He felt she should focus more on her work... though, actually, he didn’t really think so.
