“Uncle, we really didn’t have to do this last time. I want to go out and calm down. We…”
Mao Nana’s heart had already settled down. Looking at Qu Xiujie in front of her, she felt nauseous thinking about how those women seduced him. It was not that she did not know about Qu Xiujie’s character in such a long time, but she was too clear about it. It was precisely because of this that she chose to believe this man. However, it seemed that the man she had always cared about was not that outstanding and did not make her feel happy.
“Then why are you leaving? Isn’t it because of those things I did? Nana, I’m really willing to explain to you that those things really didn’t come from my intentions. It’s all because of Murong Cheng, it’s all…”
Qu Xiujie could not help but reach out his hand to squeeze Mao Nana’s arms tightly. It was as though the more he used his strength, the more tightly he could hold this person by his side. The more he did so, the more he hoped that Mao Nana would not leave him.
“Uncle, don’t you understand? You’re still finding excuses for yourself. This isn’t Murong Cheng’s problem at all. It’s you. Don’t you understand the seriousness of this matter?”
Mao Nana’s face was slightly red and she looked at Qu Xiujie with impatience.
“I…”
Qu Xiujie finally stopped talking and looked at Mao Nana’s beautiful eyes. After a moment of silence, he seemed to have made up his mind and said, “Alright then, I’ll let you go. As long as you feel happy, I don’t care about anything. But Nana, when you think it through, can you tell me your answer immediately? I’m afraid that I…”
Qu Xiujie’s worry was that Mao Nana would never come back again but Mao Nana gave him the reply that was exactly what he was expecting.
Under everyone’s gaze, Mao Nana walked into the boarding cabin and did not turn back to wave or say goodbye. Qu Xiujie just stood at the side and did not say anything. The longing in his eyes was like a butterfly watching Mao Nana fly further and further away.
The plane was already high up in the sky and had long left Qu Xiujie’s line of sight. However, Qu Xiujie still sat in the car and looked at the clouds in the sky with a dazed expression. His gaze seemed to be saying that he was unwilling to accept the fact that Mao Nana had left.
“Uncle, let’s go back.”
Pei Ge looked at Qu Xiujie and the forbearance in her heart finally made her feel a little sad. Mao Nana’s decision only represented her wishes but Qu Xiujie was only what a man should be like. He did not have much love or grievance or hatred.
The two of them separated. It was faint and as if there was no warning at all.
“Ge Ge, do you think Na Na will never come back?”
Qu Xiujie looked at the sky and thought that Mao Nana must be sitting on the plane and looking at the cotton candy-like clouds. He wondered if she would think of him too. The famous saying went, “If you love someone, you should let her go. If she is willing to come back, she would belong to you. If she is unwilling to come back, it would be useless to force her.”
Hence, Qu Xiujie did not know if he really wanted to look for Mao Nana. Even if he did, she might not be willing to follow him back.
“Uncle, you were the one who wanted to let Nana go. You don’t want her to leave now, but it’s too late. She’s already…”
Pei Ge sounded sad as she looked at Qu Xiujie’s eyes and did not know how to comfort him.
“Ge Ge, do you know? I’ve seen so many women, but I’ve never seen someone as pure and kind as her. What if she gets bullied by bad people when she goes out? What if she gets used by others? She’s so foolish, so how can she take care of herself? Ge Ge, I’m really worried. I’m worried about Nana…”
“Uncle, you can’t go on like this. You have to wake up. Nana’s departure is not entirely your fault. Uncle, don’t go on like this, okay? You’re a man, you have to act like one.”
Pei Ge opened the car door and sat inside. Seeing Qu Xiujie’s eyes filled with tears, the pain in her heart reached its peak.
“But, G,earl my heart seems to follow her now that Nana’s gone. I don’t know what I’m going to do when she’s gone. I’m in the capital. When your mother and Count Charles are gone and I’m living alone in the building, I’m afraid I’ll really be a loner.”
Qu Xiujie said pitifully and his appearance made people reluctant to look away. Looking into his eyes, it was as though this man was in his own world and was becoming more and more alone. After Mao Nana left, Qu Xiujie’s anger was also taken away.
If a woman could really not care about her man’s past, she would naturally not mind what happened before he met her. However, Mao Nana left to give Qu Xiujie a warning, telling him that she would never forgive him no matter what.
After Mao Nana’s incident, Tang Xiaoyu had worked hard to become Mr Li’s most capable assistant in Chinatown. She had become a big shot in the business world. She was born with exquisite looks and after becoming a powerful woman, her way of doing things became even more unpredictable.
In Mr Li’s mansion, Tang Xiaoyu sat on the sofa and looked at Duo Duo in the crib. Her exquisite makeup became gentler and her eyes shone like the morning sun.
“Duo Duo, you must grow up well and listen to mommy. You must know that everything mommy does is for you, so you must grow up well and be a cute girl. That way, mommy will be very happy too.”
“Of course Duo Duo has to grow up well. She has to inherit my family business and all the assets of my company.”
Mr Li stood at the door with his hands behind his back, looking at Tang Xiaoyu with smiling eyes.
“Mr Li, you…”
Even though this was not the first time he had heard Mr Li say this, he just stood there and looked at him. The touched look in his eyes was covered by a bright glow.
“Mr Li, Duo Duo is still young. You don’t have to be in such a hurry to find an heir. Besides, Duo Duo might not be willing to accept your company when she grows up. Kids have their own plans now.”
