The Billionaire's Mischievous Sweetheart-Chapter 521 - 518: Really Thinking About President Qi

"Come in, the door isn’t locked," Qi Longbing said, looking towards the entrance. Xiao Qing entered, carrying a cup of coffee. She walked over to him and placed it on the coffee table closest to him.

"President Qi, this is your favorite coffee. The Chairman once instructed that if you were to visit, we were to brew this coffee for you," Xiao Qing said with a smile, looking at Qi Longbing.

She had never imagined that Qi Longbing would one day return to their company. It was true that Qi Longbing and Hua Xiaomo had been very close before. However, for some reason, Qi Longbing had only stayed for a short period before leaving and returning to City A. After that, everyone in the company had assumed that was the end of the relationship between Qi Longbing and the Chairman. But that wasn’t the case. Qi Longbing had come to their City B once again. And it seemed that as soon as he returned, travel-worn, he had rushed to their company to see the Chairman. This clearly indicated that Qi Longbing and their Chairman must have a very close relationship.

"Thank you. I didn’t expect the Chairman to tell you all these things," Qi Longbing said with a smile, looking at Xiao Qing. Actually, this young woman was quite cute. Of course, his heart already belonged to Hua Xiaomo. He had no room for any other woman. As for Xiao Qing, wasn’t she already with Loh Hua from that investment company?

"Yes, the Chairman actually still cares for you very much, President Qi," Xiao Qing said with a smile.

Qi Longbing looked at Xiao Qing, thought for a moment, and then inquired, "By the way, how are things with you and Loh Hua now? Have you gotten engaged?"

At those words, Xiao Qing’s face turned red as she looked at Qi Longbing. "We haven’t gotten engaged yet, but we’re still doing very well together."

"If things are going well, strike while the iron is hot. Don’t let the passion fade and then forget to fight for what you should claim. Otherwise, it will only lead to regret," Qi Longbing said with a smile, a faint glow in the depths of Xiao Qing’s eyes visible to him.

Truthfully, he understood girls like Xiao Qing very well. Having just graduated from college, of course she hoped to find a tall, rich, and handsome man. Who wouldn’t want to find a tall, handsome, and wealthy man for a husband in their youth? Therefore, from the moment Xiao Qing first laid eyes on him, her interest had been quite purposeful. However, he wasn’t interested in her. In his eyes, there was only Hua Xiaomo. He didn’t give any other woman a second glance, because he felt that he and Hua Xiaomo were the perfect match. Besides, didn’t they also have their daughter? That adorable Little Candy was indeed like her namesake, a sweet treat—the very name was sweet in his mouth, and the thought of her warmed his heart.

He vividly remembered accompanying Candy to watch a big movie. Then they went to an amusement park, followed by Happy Valley, and then to Ocean Animal World. They had done so many fun things together, and the emotional bond between them had grown so strong. He found he couldn’t bear to be away from his daughter even for a moment. He was truly grateful to Hua Xiaomo for giving birth to such a beautiful little baby, and he would definitely cherish and spoil her. This time, upon his return, he would definitely fulfill his promise to take her to see a big movie.

As these thoughts filled his mind, Qi Longbing’s eyes shone brightly. He smiled at the young woman beside him and said, "When the right time comes, you should strive for what you deserve. Don’t wait until you’ve lost it to regret your inaction. That’s one of life’s greatest regrets, you know, Xiao Qing?"

"I understand, President Qi. Thank you for saying so much to me. I’m really grateful. You and the Chairman make a great pair! And the Chairman’s daughter really likes you too. I remember the last time we took the Chairman’s daughter to Ocean Animal World, she was so happy. It was as if she thought you were her dad." As Xiao Qing said this, she abruptly fell silent. Looking at Qi Longbing, she noticed his eyes suddenly darken.

Was it hypersensitivity, or something else? Qi Longbing seemed particularly affected by that last sentence, "It was as if she thought you were her dad." It appeared to have struck a nerve.

But the expression vanished in an instant. Qi Longbing smiled at Xiao Qing and said, "Little Candy is really adorable. I feel very happy being with her. It’s like returning to my childhood, with an indescribable feeling—comfortable, pleasant, and truly unforgettable."

"I’m really happy when I’m with Candy. Thank you, Xiao Qing, for accompanying Candy and me to Ocean Animal World back then. I admit I didn’t pay you much attention at the time."

"It’s alright. We’re adults; we don’t need much looking after. The most important thing is that we both took good care of the child! Little Candy is truly adorable. She’s the Chairman’s precious daughter, and I’m very fond of her too," Xiao Qing said, a gentle blush on her cheeks. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

Just then, there was another knock on the Chairman’s office door. The person who entered was none other than Hua Xiaomo. She had just left the conference room. Hearing that someone had arrived and was waiting for her in the office, she had quickly returned.

But Hua Xiaomo never expected to see Qi Longbing here. Qi Longbing had returned earlier than expected? Hadn’t he said he would be flying to City B tonight? After arriving, he was supposed to take his daughter out for dinner. Oh, no, perhaps they could eat at home. After dinner, they would take their daughter to a movie. But he had returned so early! It was truly unexpected.

Xiao Qing looked at Hua Xiaomo, who had just entered, and said with a smile, "Chairman, President Qi has already arrived. I even made President Qi a cup of his favorite coffee. I’ll leave you two to talk. Chairman, President Qi, please take your time."

Then Xiao Qing discreetly excused herself from the office, leaving Hua Xiaomo and Qi Longbing alone.

Hua Xiaomo looked at Qi Longbing for a long time without speaking, her gaze fixed on him.

Just then, Qi Longbing offered a faint smile and walked towards her. He stopped a few steps away and said, "Xiao Mo, you must be tired after the meeting. I haven’t even touched my coffee; it’s for you, to quench your thirst."
