In short, he feels that maintaining the current state is pretty good, and he’s not sure what kind of change he should make. At least for the next year or two, he doesn’t want to discuss marriage.

He also hopes that the other party won’t pressure him, for if they do, he will feel very stressed!

Alright, he trusts Zi Yunsui won’t push him as he imagines. As for marriage, maybe a lot of times, it’s not that everyone wants to have a marriage like that; it’s just that the state of marriage at the moment is different, and the feeling it gives at this time is different too.

After Zi Yunsui left, the surroundings finally quieted down, and for a moment, a kind of indescribable brilliance shone in his eyes.

He thought about many things, especially about his daughter and his own feelings. Now, with Zi Yunsui by their side and him dating Zi Yunsui, regardless of what might happen in the future, he believes that this feeling is quite normal.

After all, Zi Yunsui knows him well, and he understands him too, while the other side likes and loves him.

Alright then, this kind of feeling is slightly comforting. He doesn’t want to make any changes because any further alterations would only stress him out. Perhaps many people in this world aren’t as one imagines, but he’ll have his own idea or decision on how to do things.

No matter what happens in the future, he has decided that he will follow through on his decisions, adhering to his innermost thoughts.

He won’t overthink things, as it’s unnecessary. Besides, sometimes overthinking doesn’t bring as much relaxation as the current way of doing things, making oneself more natural. So letting things take their course is the best.

Hua Xiaomo stopped thinking, feeling a bit tired. Resting her head on her hand, she quickly dozed off halfway at the desk.

After some unknown period, the phone rang, startling Hua Xiaomo. She quickly picked up the phone, seeing it was Qi Longbing’s number, and a storm surged in her heart. She hadn’t expected Qi Longbing to call her.

At that moment, Hua Xiaomo hesitated but eventually answered the call.

"Qi Longbing, what do you need from me? By the way, what are you doing now? I’m quite surprised that you’d call me," Hua Xiaomo asked, with a faint forced smile.

She didn’t know what to say. Her feelings now when talking with him on the phone were quite different from before.

Many things have changed because, after all, she has accepted another man’s pursuit and agreed to date him. So facing Qi Longbing now, she feels somewhat unnatural.

No matter what, sometimes things aren’t as one imagines, and although Qi Longbing is very good to her, she still can’t be with him as she imagined!

She also has to consider Candy’s future and her own. Perhaps Zi Yunsui is suitable for her; maybe being given a chance to be with him is more appropriate!

At that moment, Qi Longbing, holding the phone, thought about many things.

"Hua Xiaomo, I’m calling you to say that I really, truly miss you in my heart. That’s why I called you. I had initially planned to sort out my matters first before reaching out to you, but I couldn’t control my feelings, so I called."

"Hua Xiaomo, I don’t know if you still love me as you did before. If you still do, please take good care of yourself and have faith in me, okay? I truly love you and our daughter Candy must be growing into a very beautiful girl, right?"

"I really miss her now, Hua Xiaomo. I hope you can stand firmly by my side and have confidence in me. Please, don’t change easily because I will fulfill what you imagine. I truly love you, you know? I staunchly believe in our love vow, and I will love you wholeheartedly! I will cherish you tenderly!"

"This feeling will never change; it always remains deep in my heart. It will overcome all difficulties. Although I lack the current qualifications to pursue you, please believe that this state won’t last long, and my feelings for you have never changed. Do you believe me?"

"If you believe me, please give me some support, give me strength, okay? I truly love you," Qi Longbing said, with tender care in his eyes.

At that moment, he truly wanted to rush to her side and to Candy’s side, to give the two women the greatest possible happiness.

Hua Xiaomo, hearing him speak that way, didn’t know how to react. Truly, she often feels life is filled with countless unspeakable encounters.

But no matter the price paid in life, she always feels that one should live the life they want and do the things they desire.

Many times, isn’t life achieved step by step this way? She doesn’t want to think too much because it only brings inner annoyance.

Okay, listening to Qi Longbing at this moment, her eyes truly shimmered with crystalline light. She didn’t know if it was from being moved or something else. Deep in her heart, there was a slight discomfort, but she really couldn’t utter words of rejection.

She also couldn’t tell him what kind of life and conditions she wanted. However, she feels many times that striving to do life’s tasks well is not an easy thing. Many things she’s done haven’t been understood by others but rather misunderstood. So she won’t think too much. She just feels she should be herself.
