The Billionaire's Mischievous Sweetheart-Chapter 541 - 538: They Really Ended Up Together!

The group was happily having dinner. For a while, with all the talking and laughing, the atmosphere was truly joyful and harmonious.

At that moment, perhaps by coincidence, Hua Xiaomo glanced towards the restaurant’s entrance. To her surprise, she saw familiar figures; it was none other than Zi Yunsui and Ye Xiangxue. Her eyes immediately lit up. She had not expected Zi Yunsui and Ye Xiangxue to actually end up together. Seeing them going out for dinner was simply fantastic.

Just then, Zi Yunsui’s gaze drifted their way and met Hua Xiaomo’s. For a moment, his expression turned slightly unnatural. Ye Xiangxue then followed Zi Yunsui’s gaze and saw Hua Xiaomo, Qi Longbing, and Candy—the family of three. Her own cheeks tinged with a faint blush.

"Zi Yunsui, isn’t that Hua Xiaomo and the others? Why don’t we go over and say hello?" Ye Xiangxue suggested to Zi Yunsui beside her, noticing the shadow that crossed his face.

For a moment, Ye Xiangxue felt a flicker of worry. It seemed Zi Yunsui wasn’t pleased to see Hua Xiaomo with Qi Longbing. But how could he possibly prevent them from being together? They were a family of three, and more importantly, Hua Xiaomo and Qi Longbing were Candy’s biological parents. That was an unchangeable fact.

Zi Yunsui looked at Ye Xiangxue beside him and was silent for a good while. Then, with an emotionless face, he finally nodded. "Alright, let’s go over and exchange a few words."

Soon, Ye Xiangxue linked her arm with Zi Yunsui’s, and they walked over towards Hua Xiaomo and Qi Longbing.

Hua Xiaomo, seeing Zi Yunsui and Ye Xiangxue, greeted them with a smile. "Hey, you two are out for dinner too. Seeing the two of you together like this makes me really happy. Ye Xiangxue, Zi Yunsui, why don’t you join us and sit down for a bit, okay?"

Qi Longbing, standing aside and looking at the two of them, didn’t say anything. However, his eyes rested on Hua Xiaomo’s face. The smile on Hua Xiaomo’s face was, at that moment, especially charming.

Yes, Hua Xiaomo was the most charming woman. In his eyes, she was the best girl imaginable. With Hua Xiaomo and Candy by his side, he felt truly blessed.

Ye Xiangxue, looking at Hua Xiaomo, Qi Longbing, and Candy, also smiled and said, "No need, Hua Xiaomo, we’ve already reserved a spot over there. Seeing your family of three here, eating together, it really seems so happy. Hua Xiaomo, your daughter is incredibly cute."

"Little Candy, quickly say hello to Sister Ye Xiangxue, okay? Look, it’s been such a long time since you last saw Sister Ye Xiangxue. Don’t you miss her?" Hua Xiaomo said to Little Candy with a laugh. At that moment, she truly thought Little Candy was a very well-behaved child.

Candy just stared, not saying a word. It was the first time any of them had seen her like this.

Candy’s eyes widened as she looked at Ye Xiangxue and Zi Yunsui. She really wanted to talk to them, but then she remembered something and decided against speaking.

After a little while, she said, "Mommy, mommy, I like Brother Zi Yunsui and Sister Ye Xiangxue so much too. It’s just that I don’t quite like it when Brother Zi Yunsui and Sister Ye Xiangxue are together. Brother Zi Yunsui used to be with Mommy, didn’t he? How come he’s suddenly with Sister Ye Xiangxue now? It’s so strange, Mommy." Candy finished, her innocent eyes wide.

Her words immediately made all four adults somewhat embarrassed. Hua Xiaomo suddenly recalled something and sternly said to Candy, "Candy, what nonsense are you spouting? You mustn’t talk like that again, understand?"

Candy looked at Hua Xiaomo, who seemed so frightening that she couldn’t help but burst into tears. "Mommy, Mommy, why are you saying this to me? Wasn’t it like this before? Mommy, you’re so mean. Mommy, you’re really too mean. I really don’t like you, I really dislike you so much."

Qi Longbing frowned. He looked at Hua Xiaomo and said, "Children are innocent and naive. Why take her words so seriously, Hua Xiaomo? You mustn’t treat a child like that again, understand?"

Then, Qi Longbing comforted Little Candy beside him. "Little Candy, don’t cry, don’t cry," he said gently. "Uncle is right here. Shall we go watch a movie in a bit? And Little Candy, there’s also your favorite steak! How can you just cry and not go eat steak?" 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

"Shall we eat steak together? Shall we quietly eat our steak right here? Uncle will eat with you, and we’ll see who can eat faster, okay?" Qi Longbing added with a smile to Little Candy.

Ye Xiangxue felt slightly embarrassed. She saw Hua Xiaomo force a weak smile. "Hua Xiaomo, we’re going to have our meal then. You guys enjoy your dining here; we won’t bother you, alright?"

"Alright then, but do make sure to have some fun," Hua Xiaomo said with a smile, nodding at Ye Xiangxue. However, when her gaze swept toward Zi Yunsui at her side, she noticed his expression was somewhat dark.

His skin appeared quite pale. Only after a good while did Zi Yunsui turn his head away without speaking and walk with Ye Xiangxue toward an empty table on the other side.

Because of Zi Yunsui and Ye Xiangxue’s arrival, the meal became somewhat lackluster for Hua Xiaomo and Qi Longbing, each preoccupied with their own thoughts.

After a while, Qi Longbing and Hua Xiaomo finished their meal and stood up.

"Qi Longbing, you take the child out first. I want to greet Zi Yunsui and Ye Xiangxue before I come out, okay?" Hua Xiaomo said to Qi Longbing. To be honest, there were things she wanted to say to Zi Yunsui and Ye Xiangxue. After all, it really was a bit inconvenient with Qi Longbing there. Besides, she knew that even though Qi Longbing hadn’t said anything, he was also feeling a bit emotional.

"Alright, but don’t be too long. The child and I will wait for you in the car." After saying that, Qi Longbing picked up Little Candy and left the restaurant.

Hua Xiaomo watched as Qi Longbing left, and then she walked toward Zi Yunsui and Ye Xiangxue on the other side.

Just as Hua Xiaomo reached them, Ye Xiangxue was about to speak when Zi Yunsui cut in. "Hua Xiaomo, that man still hasn’t dealt with his own issues. Why do you still want to be with him?"
