Previously, Dong Xiaoyou hadn’t known he had a fiancée. They still fell in love and even had a child. Later, when the truth could no longer be hidden, Dong Xiaoyou, upon learning the whole truth, painfully decided to leave him.
However, when Dong Xiaoyou was preparing to abort the child, Yu Hanxi rushed over upon hearing the news and tried every ans to persuade her to keep it. It was only much later that Dong Xiaoyou realized keeping the child wouldn’t prevent him from marrying the other woman. That was when she resolutely decided to leave him.
Speaking of these painful matters, Dong Xiaoyou cried even more sorrowfully.
Hua Xiaomo felt very sympathetic after hearing this. She comforted Dong Xiaoyou by patting her shoulder. "Xiao You, don’t be sad. I am still by your side! I will protect you and your child from now on."
But deep down, she had another thought: So that Yu Hanxi was no good either! He had a fiancée yet still pursued Xiao You, causing her so much suffering? If I ever get the chance to et this man, I must teach him a lesson!
"Xiao Mo, thank you," Dong Xiaoyou said, nodding gratefully. "Can I... can I stay at your place?"
"Of course you can!" Hua Xiaomo said with a smile. Then she joined Dong Xiaoyou in holding the child. "From now on, this child has an extra godmother. No one will dare to bully him again!"
"Mhm, mhm," Dong Xiaoyou nodded, touched. She also tightly grasped Xiao Mo’s hand.
"Let’s go to my place," Hua Xiaomo said cheerfully, leading Dong Xiaoyou and her child to her mother’s ho.
「At the Hua’s Ho in Chaohu Alley.」
Su Ronghua was utterly shocked when she saw the two young won bring ho a child. When she learned that the child was Xiao You’s, born out of wedlock, and heard her story, Su Ronghua felt very sympathetic towards her.
"Xiao You, from now on you can live at our ho. We are family, so don’t feel uncomfortable. All hardships will pass," Su Ronghua said.
She had never married in her life, but she had a daughter, Hua Xiaomo. She could fully understand this young woman’s suffering, especially since she was still so young and beautiful.
Moreover, when Su Ronghua was recovering at ho from surgery, Dong Xiaoyou had always been the one to co over and help care for her. Now that Dong Xiaoyou was in trouble, they should promptly offer a helping hand.
"Thank you, Auntie Hua," Dong Xiaoyou smiled gratefully.
"Child, forget that man. Your life still stretches far ahead," Su Ronghua consoled. Dong Xiaoyou was rendered speechless.
"Mom, please don’t say any more. The baby needs to be fed – I’ll take him into the room. Mom, please get so warm milk ready quickly!" Hua Xiaomo said, then threw a knowing glance at Dong Xiaoyou before carrying the baby into the room.
Just as the baby had been fed, and before Hua Xiaomo had a mont to rest, the telephone rang.
"Hello?" Hua Xiaomo answered the landline lazily.
"Hua Xiaomo, hurry and co save President Qi! President Qi has been kidnapped!" Yu Bao’s frantic voice ca from the other end.
"Huh? What did you say? President Qi has been kidnapped?" Hua Xiaomo was stunned for a mont. It took her quite a while to process this information.
President Qi has been kidnapped? No way! Why is everyone in the world so crazy these days? They even dared to kidnap President Qi? It imdiately made Hua Xiaomo think of Brother Lan, whom they had never managed to catch. Could it be him... did he kidnap President Qi?
"Hurry over, I’m at..." Yu Bao quickly rattled off an address.
"Okay. I’ll be right there," Hua Xiaomo said and then hung up the phone.
Dong Xiaoyou approached her, looking concerned. "Xiao Mo, are you really going to rescue President Qi? I think you should call the police imdiately."
"We can’t call the police. If we do, President Qi will be in danger," Hua Xiaomo said, her amber eyes revealing a hint of deep gloom. That Brother Lan is a desperado. What if he does sothing to Qi Longbing...? This was the first ti her heart had ever pounded so fiercely for him.
"I have to save him! I can’t waste any more ti." Hua Xiaomo’s gaze hardened. She quickly took a few homade small darts from under her pillow, put them in her bag, and had just reached the door—
The landline rang again.
Hua Xiaomo’s nerves tensed, and she quickly answered, "Hello?"
"Hua Xiaomo, this is Zi Yunsui! Master has been captured by Situ Cheng! You have to co quickly! I’m waiting for you at Pandora Villa. You must co! We’ll rescue Master together!" Zi Yunsui said rapidly.
"Uh... Xia Shuangming has been captured by Situ Cheng, who is also Sha Po Lang?" Hua Xiaomo was startled again.
She imdiately recalled the shocking scar on Xia Shuangming’s arm. Xia Shuangming had also said that he had cut off one of Sha Po Lang’s hands, but Sha Po Lang had escaped. And now, he was most likely back for revenge. That man was a dangerous wanted criminal! If Xia Shuangming was caught by him, would he even survive?
"Yes, co quickly! We must race against ti, or Master will be in danger. Hurry, I’ll wait for you!" Zi Yunsui said, then hung up.
Hua Xiaomo finally put down the phone, her eyes revealing an unreadable, complex emotion. She stood there for a long while without moving.
"Xiao Mo, what’s wrong?" Dong Xiaoyou ca over. Seeing Hua Xiaomo’s troubled expression, she asked with concern.
Hua Xiaomo looked at her, hesitated for a mont, then said, "Xia Shuangming is in danger."
"Xiao You, what should I do? I can’t ignore him. This all started because of . If it hadn’t been for the ’Blue Moon’ hijacking, he wouldn’t have been caught by Sha Po Lang," Hua Xiaomo said, frowning deeply, suddenly overwheld with anxiety.
"Ah, so Xia Shuangming is in trouble too? But wasn’t President Qi just kidnapped?" Dong Xiaoyou looked at her. "Considering the situation, both of them are in great danger. Xiao Mo, whom do you plan to rescue?"
Hearing this made Hua Xiaomo’s heart sink heavily.
She thought of how Qi Longbing had smashed her phone earlier, but she truly didn’t bla him. After all, many things have two sides. His love sotis felt as fierce as flas, and at other tis, as gentle as warm, soft water, always carrying an elusive quality. He persistently tried to get closer to her, while she retreated again and again, keeping her heart tightly guarded. In the end, it was unclear who was truly getting hurt. Love truly has no right or wrong, so she couldn’t bla anyone. Facing it bravely and taking responsibility was the only path. And Xia Shuangming, to her, was like both a friend and a ntor, even though he sotis did rather unreliable things. Like when he suddenly treated marriage as a transaction, it left her feeling flustered, exasperated, and indignant, unsure whether to laugh or cry. Just when she had resolved to leave him, she would look back and realize it was nearly impossible to completely sever ties, leaving only the option to continue these "lingering connections."
