Chapter 2017: Can’t Throw Me Away Just Because Of One Candy
At the lakeside villa.
When Ma Haodong returned, he saw that Xiao Yuqian was preparing dinner in the kitchen.
Xiao Yuqian heard sounds, came out, and saw he was back. He had an expression of dejection and she could already guess that there was an eighty percent chance that he suffered a major blow.
Just before, she received a call from her boss, President He. He tactfully advised her that President Ma of the Rongma Group already knew about her and Ma Haodong. He hoped she could control herself and not get romantically tangled up with the artists.
Xiao Yuqian came over and asked with concern, “You really went to see your father?”
“Of course I really went!”
“He doesn’t approve, right?”
“How did you know?”
“I can tell just by looking at your expression. It is written all over your face!”
“Sigh…” Ma Haodong sighed and collapsed onto the sofa.
Xiao Yuqian sat down beside him, pulled his hand over and comforted, “It’s actually fine. Your father opposes it because you are too young. Once three or five years pass and you grow up and mature, he naturally won’t interfere with you.”
Ma Haodong heard this and immediately threw himself over onto her lap. He said, “After three or five years, I’m afraid you won’t wait for me.”
“How could that be?”
“What if you meet a guy who is more mature, charming, and outstanding than me and you don’t like me anymore because you have a new choice?”
“Are you stupid. Am I the kind of woman who changes whenever they see someone new? Li Muhao had a platonic love with me and I dated him for three years. We are already in a relationship so I even more so can’t leave you.
“The one who should be afraid is me. If three or five years pass and you meet a girl who is younger, more beautiful and more suitable, would you complain that I am too old?”
After all, Xiao Yuqian was older than him. The one who should feel a lack of security should be her.
“I don’t know. I only know that I, Ma Haodong, belong only to a woman called Xiao Yuqian in this life. I want to hold her hand for all my life until my hair turns white with old age.”
Ma Haodong nestled in her embrace like a big boy who had been wronged. Xiao Yuqian touched his head and lowered her head to smile lightly. “You are really so easy to trick. You can’t throw me away just because of one candy?”
Ma Haodong suddenly lifted his head. “You remembered the incident with the candy?”
“Yeah.”
Xiao Yuqian smiled as she nodded and vaguely recalled, “At that time, you were sniveling like a small little kitten.”
Ma Haodong’s hurt heart was slightly comforted. “I remember you were wearing a princess dress at that time. You were as beautiful as a fairy.”
The two of them started to recall the past together. Ma Haodong’s mood got better again and he said to Xiao Yuqian, “Qianqian, I’ve finished thinking about it. Why don’t we get a certificate first, okay?”
Ma Haodong didn’t want to do it with his father’s approval. He wanted to be with Xiao Yuqian and no one could interfere with his decision.
“We’ll talk about it later. This isn’t urgent. You just took root in the entertainment industry and haven’t stood still yet. Talking about marriage now is too early.”
Xiao Yuqian could also understand why Ma Hangcheng opposed it. After all, the age gap between her and Ma Haodong was very big. Moreover, her mother was Ma Hangcheng’s first love in the past. That’s why it was probably very difficult for Ma Hangcheng to accept his son being with her.
“Are you complaining about how I don’t have my own career yet?”
“Could it be that you don’t think men should have their own careers before they get married?”
Xiao Yuqian liked men who were ambitious. She always felt men should at least have a stable career before they get married. It was only then that they could talk about marriage and family. Otherwise, all of it would be a house that was built upon bubbles; there would always be a chance of collapse at any time.”
“This is easy. As long as I am willing, I can take over the family business at any time.”
