Chapter 348: Chapter 348

"Oh come on, you’re not old! Look at you, 23, in the prime of youth," Hua Xiaomo said with a laugh, and then looked at him. "Come on, I’ll take you for a little image makeover."

"What makeover? I don’t want that!" Zi Yunsui resisted, but couldn’t win against Hua Xiaomo.

Hua Xiaomo dragged him to a hair salon to style his hair.

"Look at how long your hair has gotten; you should take care of it. Besides, young people should look young! Don’t always make yourself look so old-fashioned," Hua Xiaomo insisted while looking at his reflection in the mirror. He indeed needs a good spruce up.

Otherwise, he was always in a suit, which seemed overly serious.

"I’m the general manager, remember?" Zi Yunsui said with a smile, somewhat exasperated. Sometimes, he really did forget what he should be doing at his age, but he felt he should be accomplishing more, rather than wasting time at this stage of his life.

So ever since he had become general manager, his appearance had indeed changed a lot; his once cherished purple hair was long gone, replaced by a flowing mane of black hair.

"So what if you are a general manager? General managers need to care about their image too, so stop arguing with me already," Hua Xiaomo said with a laugh. Soon after, the stylist started working on his hairstyle.

Before long, a new, younger-looking Zi Yunsui caught Hua Xiaomo’s eye.

"This really suits you well; it’s nice. Come on, let’s go buy some clothes," Hua Xiaomo said, and dragged Zi Yunsui to the men’s clothing section.

They picked out several sets of high-end menswear in no time. The card was swiped for over a million in a flash.

"There we go, these are my gifts to you, make sure to take good care of them," Hua Xiaomo said with a smile, handing over a bunch of big and small bags and stuffing them into Zi Yunsui’s arms.

Zi Yunsui looked at the things Hua Xiaomo bought for him and felt an unusual sensation deep inside. It was the first time he had bought clothes for her; he remembered, he remembered it very clearly. This is a change, isn’t it? It’s great. I really hope such changes will continue. I feel truly happy. It’s not that she needs immense talent or a dazzling aura; I’m just genuinely attracted to Hua Xiaomo! Perhaps it’s her character that attracts me. I feel very comfortable living life with this person, and we complement each other well. We’ve hardly fought in nearly five years. We’ve never even had a serious argument.

Zi Yunsui could imagine that living with Hua Xiaomo would be blissful, which was why he was more than willing to take care of her child.

In the distance, a dark figure watched them, fists clenched tightly.

Qi Longbing didn’t know how he was bearing it. It seems Hua Xiaomo really has changed her heart. She won’t agree to be with me because of this boy. What’s so bad about me, Qi Longbing? I have everything. I’m the best man in the world. Who could surpass me? But I’ve lost, lost to a novice who hasn’t yet made his mark. Yet that novice has spent a full five years by her side, and perhaps they’re already involved. How could I have been so naïve? It’s been five years; so many things could have happened. Perhaps they’ve been living together for a long time already—that’s entirely possible. Otherwise, how could the two of them start a company together? And struggle side by side? To think they even built a fortune of over a hundred million! If there wasn’t some stable relationship, how could it continue to develop? And this stable relationship... is nothing more than various physical and mental connections.

Qi Longbing mocked himself slowly in his heart. I’m truly foolish. I haven’t seen this woman’s true nature. It turns out she too likes handsome men. She’s completely a fickle woman. Besides being younger than me, I can’t see how that guy is better than me in any way. Well, now isn’t the time when money can solve problems. Hua Xiaomo is wealthy now too, a rich woman who can afford to keep anyone she wants. And me, I no longer have any way to intervene with her. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡✶𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚✶𝙣𝙚𝙩

Qi Longbing made a harsh decision in his heart. Is it true? I can’t intervene with her anymore? Just wait, I will definitely make you pay, Hua Xiaomo! One year, at most one year, I will definitely crush your company!

A desire for revenge grew wildly in Qi Longbing’s heart.

While a grand wedding was taking place on one side, on the other side, someone had already started heading to the airport.

Hua Xiaomo looked back at City A one last time. She felt a myriad of emotions but couldn’t utter a word. Anything said now would be superfluous. That person will have his happiness. His life doesn’t need me anymore. He will surely find his happiness. Perhaps it was destined to be a miss, perhaps we were fated to have no connection at all. Whatever the outcome, I have no regrets.

Just when about to enter the gates, Zi Yunsui stopped in his tracks. His deep voice slowly came through. "It’s not too late to regret now. We can hurry to the wedding venue and stop him."

Hua Xiaomo was stunned by these words for a moment. But quickly, she chuckled softly. "Why stop him? You’re being ridiculous. It’s really over between him and me. Did you think everything I said before was a joke? It’s true, Zi Yunsui. Let’s go; we shouldn’t delay our boarding time."

Zi Yunsui looked into her eyes and saw a hint of loss. I know that in her heart, she will never forget Qi Longbing. But if two people aren’t meant to be, there’s nothing to be done.

At the moment Hua Xiaomo boarded the plane, suddenly, a voice called out.

"Hua Xiaomo, wait." Wen Yajun walked quickly from a distance.

"Brother." Hua Xiaomo looked at him, a hint of moisture glistening in her eyes.

"You’re leaving in such a hurry, brother doesn’t even know what to say. Mom asked me to tell you, if you’re tired, just come back. Don’t wear yourself out," Wen Yajun advised, a gleam of light shining in his eyes, feeling very distressed inside. Today was the blissful wedding day of Qi Longbing and Warner World’s heiress Pan Yutong. Yet, he had to send his sister away from the airport, away from this place of heartache. Perhaps Hua Xiaomo’s departure is for the best. She couldn’t just stand by and watch Qi Longbing marry another woman; that would be unbearable for her.
