The Scheming Billionaire's Heartfelt Devotion-Chapter 813 - 828: How Can a Single Dog Bear This?

"I don’t care who you like, but you must marry Xia Mo, this is decided."

Qi Shangyu suddenly let out a cold laugh: "I am not a puppet to be manipulated by you, and I will not follow any of your arrangements."

Li Jiaxue was really about to go crazy with anger; she calmed her emotions slightly: "What’s wrong with a business alliance? Besides, Xia Mo is so good; whether it’s looks, temperament, or family background, what part doesn’t match up to you?"

"No matter how good, it’s of no use, I don’t like her."

Qi Shangyu irritably unbuttoned a few buttons on his shirt collar and picked up a cigarette from the desk to light it, taking a few deep puffs: "Mom, please don’t come to the company anymore, and don’t talk about marrying the Xia family." 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

"I think you’re just bewitched by that vixen Zhong Li; in any case, you must marry Xia Mo for me, there’s no negotiating this."

Li Jiaxue’s sharp voice carried an indisputable tone, and without giving Qi Shangyu a chance to speak, she left,

In this matter, even without Zhong Li, Qi Shangyu would still not bring back a woman he did not love.

.......

After work in the evening, Zhong Li, carrying her bag, walked out of the company lobby with Assistant Wang and immediately saw Gu Nanxi standing not far away.

He was holding a smoking cigarette between his fingers, leaning against the car door with one hand in his pocket, the two buttons at the collar of his black shirt were undone, revealing a refined Adam’s apple.

"Oh my God, there’s heaps of dog food every day, leaving my single dog self in despair," Assistant Wang said sourly.

Zhong Li turned slightly and laughed: "Hurry up and find a partner; I hope to eat your dog food."

Heh, if it was that easy to find someone, would a man in his thirties still be single until now?

Assistant Wang waved his hand at Zhong Li with a face full of disdain: "President Gu is watching you; hurry up and go."

Zhong Li raised her hand to tuck the long hair hanging over her shoulder behind her ear, smiling as she walked towards Gu Nanxi: "Been waiting long?"

"No, I just got here a little while ago."

Gu Nanxi discarded the cigarette butt on the ground and stomped it out, raising his hand to wave through the smoke in the air: "Let’s go."

The two got into the car, Gu Nanxi leaned in to fasten his seatbelt, and drove away.

Twenty minutes later, the car stopped in front of Han Xi’s villa. Zhong Li got out of the car, holding Gu Nanxi’s arm, and walked to the door, ringing the bell.

In the dining room, Sister Zhang heard the doorbell, put the dish she was holding onto the table, and went to open the door: "Miss Zhong, Mr. Gu, you’ve arrived."

Zhong Li smiled and greeted Sister Zhang, bending down to take slippers from the shoe cabinet, and changed into them; Gu Nanxi nodded his head.

In the living room, Han Xi heard the voices, turned around: "Sis, you’re here."

Zhong Li and Gu Nanxi walked together to the living room, sitting on the sofa: "Where are Little Bun and Lu Jinghan?"

"Jing Han is upstairs changing clothes for our son, he’ll be down soon."

After speaking, Han Xi’s gaze fell on Gu Nanxi: "Mr. Gu, I knew you’d definitely win my sister over."

Gu Nanxi looked at Zhong Li with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Don’t call me Mr. Gu anymore, we’re all family now, why not call me brother-in-law."

"I think that’s good, it’s going to happen sooner or later anyway." Han Xi nodded approvingly.

"Hey, haven’t you even asked my opinion; how did he become brother-in-law?"

Gu Nanxi held Zhong Li’s hand resting on his leg, the depth of his eyes filled with laughter: "Do you disagree then?"
