Chapter 322: Chapter 322

Even though they could have continued to live a happy life together, why let all the misunderstandings and barriers pull their hearts further and further apart?

At this moment, he could truly feel that Hua Xiaomo did like Qi Longbing, but for some reason, he simply didn’t want to admit this feeling.

"Bro, stop talking about me. Speak for yourself. What exactly is going on between you and Dong Xiaoyou?" Hua Xiaomo looked at Wen Yajun. She had been very surprised when their mother brought it up. Given Wen Yajun’s personality, it was possible for him to be with the gentle Dong Xiaoyou. However, ever since Dong Xiaoyou had her child, I’ve felt it’s unlikely for the two of them. Besides, Wen Yajun is supposed to like Ye Xiangxue, right? How could he suddenly have fallen for someone else!

"What ’exactly is going on’? It’s just how things are, nothing more." Wen Yajun said with a smile, his eyes shining. "You need to think carefully about your situation with Qi Longbing. As for my affairs, you don’t need to worry about them. I have my own plans."

"But what about Ye Xiangxue? Don’t you like her? How could you not like Xiangxue!" Hua Xiaomo asked, looking at her brother. I always feel he has something he can’t quite bring himself to say, but right now, I don’t even know how to ask. Maybe I should ask Ye Xiangxue what’s really going on!

"Stop asking. Just leave it be. You had a long journey back, so get some good sleep. Tomorrow morning, tell me what you want to eat, and I’ll go buy you breakfast," Wen Yajun said considerately. He then tucked her in with the blanket, smiled at her, and reluctantly left her room.

Watching her brother, so tender and considerate, Hua Xiaomo genuinely felt happy for the lucky girl who was going to marry him. Yes, any girl who marries Wen Yajun will definitely be a fortunate one because he truly is a guy who knows how to take good care of people. And he’s so incredibly gentle, responsible, good-looking, and his new job is respectable too. All in all, he’s a rare golden bachelor! Importantly, his talents have also developed significantly at Qi Imperial Court. It seems I was right when I first recommended him to Qi Longbing. Wen Yajun is truly a very capable person. And it’s true; he hasn’t disappointed my expectations. Nor Mom’s.

Hua Xiaomo closed her eyes, but her sleep was restless. No matter how uneasy she felt, she slept until daylight.

「Early the next morning.」

Wen Yajun had already bought breakfast and placed it on the table before heading to work at the company.

Su Ronghua looked at Hua Xiaomo and said with a smile, "These are all your favorite breakfast items. Come and have some. Look how thin you’ve become. You didn’t eat well yesterday, either."

"Not at all! I ate very well yesterday. I really love Mom’s cooking; it’s so delicious," Hua Xiaomo said, her lovely face beaming with a sweet smile.

"You certainly know how to make your mom happy," Su Ronghua shook her head, then looked at Hua Xiaomo. "How about you go out with Mom today?"

"Today..." Hua Xiaomo hesitated. Thinking of what Zi Yunsui had arranged, she said apologetically, "Mom, I can’t today. Zi Yunsui said our game company has a contract to sign, and we have to go to another company’s office together. How about I go out with you tomorrow?"

"A game company? Xiao Mo, you started a game company?" Su Ronghua was somewhat surprised. Due to the rush yesterday, she hadn’t had the chance to ask her more and had just let her go to sleep.

"Yes, Mom. Zi Yunsui and I co-founded a company, and it’s doing quite well now. We returned to City A for another purpose: to sign a project contract with this company and then get our company listed in City A," Hua Xiaomo said slowly, unable to hide the sweet smile on her face.

Su Ronghua was taken aback. She looked at her daughter, never having imagined she had the makings of a businesswoman. It truly surprised her.

"Starting a company must take so much effort. Xiao Mo, how much hardship have you endured these five years away from home? Mom really feels for you," Su Ronghua said empathetically, looking at her precious daughter, not knowing quite what else to say.

"It’s not hard, Mom. My initial work was just doing some game animations, and now the company is on the right track. The truly hard times are already behind us," Hua Xiaomo said. Then she looked at her mother, and as a thought occurred to her, she added, "Actually, Zi Yunsui is really a genius. The reason our game company succeeded is all thanks to him."

Seeing Hua Xiaomo mention Zi Yunsui in front of her again, a different thought crossed Su Ronghua’s mind.

"Have you really been living with him for these five years?" Su Ronghua asked, a hint of doubt in her eyes. Five years. That’s a very long time. Who could say what might have happened?

Hua Xiaomo squinted uncomfortably. "Mom, what do you mean, ’living together’? We’re just very good friends."

As soon as I said that, I felt I’d let it slip. I instinctively covered my mouth. I’m really shooting myself in the foot! Just yesterday, I announced at the table that we were boyfriend and girlfriend, and now, this very moment, I’m confessing to Mom that we’re just good friends. Heavens, I’m going to drive myself crazy!

Su Ronghua was stunned by these words, then slowly smiled. She knew it would turn out . Hua Xiaomo isn’t a frivolous girl. So, what she said at the dinner table couldn’t be taken seriously at all. And now, this is what’s truly in her heart, isn’t it? The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩•𝗳𝗂𝗋𝖾•𝕟𝕖𝕥

"Oh, Mom, I can’t talk now. I’m heading out. Zi Yunsui will call me in a bit, so I’ll stop chatting. Bye," Hua Xiaomo said hurriedly, her eyes reddening. Then she quickly left the villa.

After leaving the villa, her phone rang. Hua Xiaomo quickly answered it.

"Xiao Mo? Head straight to Century Haosheng Hotel and wait for me. I’ve booked a private room in the top-tier VIP guest lounge; you can go directly there," Zi Yunsui said quickly over the phone. After saying this, he hung up.

"Okay," Hua Xiaomo replied. She quickly hailed a taxi and headed towards Century Haosheng Hotel.

「Century Haosheng Hotel.」

Hua Xiaomo took the elevator directly to the top floor. But just as she stepped out of the elevator, she unexpectedly ran into Qi Longbing.
