Provocative Fiery Wife: My Superior is an Affectionate Spitfire - Chapter 1883

Chapter 1883: The Non-Retractable Path to Becoming Opponents

Gu Zhengrong gulped down the red wine in the glass. Everything he wanted was just a reflection in the glass. No matter how much he drank, no matter how much he poured, those images were still waiting for him in the world he did not want to face.

“Xiaoyu, if you come back, we’ll get married. I’ll bring you to see this world and tour all the beautiful sceneries. I want to give you everything I can give you. As long as you come back, I can give up on everything.”

The tears on his cheeks were even more obvious.

The gaze in the dead of the night was just too desolate.

Gu Zhengrong drank the whole night and kept mentioning Tang Xiaoyu’s name, but he did not know that she was on the way here and was on the non-retractable path to become his opponent.

When Tang Xiaoyu and her daughter boarded the plane back to the United States, because her cute daughter blinked her large eyes curiously at the scenery around them, she did not make any noise or make any unhappy cries. She was as obedient as a porcelain doll, making it hard for others to look away.

This was especially so for Tang Xiaoyu, who was carrying the baby. Although she was thin and her face was slightly pale, it could not hide the fact that she was a beauty.

“Miss, are you going to America too? Where are you going?”

Sitting beside Tang Xiaoyu was a ruddy old man who looked at the baby in her arms with love.

“I’m going to Washington. How about you?”

Tang Xiaoyu looked up. Her fringe covered the obvious scar on her forehead.

“What a coincidence, me too. Is anyone picking you up at the airport?”

The elderly man smiled as he talked to Tang Xiaoyu while looking at the baby in her arms. He looked at the baby’s pure eyes with love. “This baby is very cute. I like her.”

“Thank you. She’s only a month old.”

Tang Xiaoyu looked at her daughter who did not seem to mind the elderly man beside her. Just as she was feeling confused, the elderly man took out a name card from his pocket and handed it to her.

Tang Xiaoyu was about to say something as she stared at the three words when the old man put a finger to his lips. “Shh. Don’t let anyone know.”

Tang Xiaoyu widened her eyes. She could not believe that she would be able to meet the most influential Chinese tycoon on the American streets after taking a plane back to America.

“Since you already know who I am, then when you get off the plane, you can take my car and leave. I think this child has a lot of affinity with me. It’s not easy for you and your daughter either. Knowing who I am means that you’ve been living in America for a long time.”

“Mr Li, I’ve indeed been living in America for a long time. I only returned to China because I had a baby. I’m honored to be able to meet you in person. I didn’t expect you to sit in economy class.”

“What’s the big deal? It’s normal for me to sit in the economy class. However, most of the time, I don’t take this plane. If I’m happy, I’ll take it. If I’m unhappy, I’ll take mine.”

Mr Li smiled as he teased Tang Xiaoyu’s daughter. “Your child is so obedient, her eyes are full of spirit.”

Mr Li looked at Duo Duo and could not bear to let go. He, who was wearing a gentleman’s hat, took out a bracelet from his suit and handed it to Tang Xiaoyu. “Your child and I hit off very well. I don’t have anything to give you during our first meeting. You can keep this bracelet. It’s the first limited edition of my jewelry company. I’ll give it to her this time.”

The legendary sapphire pendant hung on the bracelet. Tang Xiaoyu was at a loss.

“Mr Li, there’s no need for this gift. We ordinary people can’t afford it.”

“You’re not ordinary. I didn’t see any of your ordinary characteristics on you. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have given it to you. Just keep it. Since you know me, you must also know my style of doing things. How could I have the thought of taking back something I gave away?”

“Alright then.”

Tang Xiaoyu could not refuse and merely nodded her head to thank him before taking the bracelet from him. The letters engraved on it were the letters’ DD ‘.

“My daughter’s name is Duo Duo.”

Looking at the bracelet, Tang Xiaoyu could only say that it was a coincidence that the two of them met the tycoon of Chinatown.

“Really? This bracelet must be specially made for Duo Duo. Keep it. If you need any help in the future, you can come to my company with this bracelet. I’ll agree to three of your requests. As long as I can help, I’ll do my best to help you.”

“Mr Li, thank you. But I don’t think I need your help with anything. I can handle it myself.”

Tang Xiaoyu looked up at her daughter. She had already made up her mind that even if she did not meet Mr Li today, she could handle everything by herself.

“No, no, no. I’m an experienced person. Listen to me. Don’t be so full of yourself. You have to believe that I can help you. I can even give you everything you want, including this child’s future. Now that you’re a mother, you should know what will happen to this child in the future. You have to believe that what you can give her, compared to what I can give her, requires time and energy.”

Mr Li said a lot of things to dispel Tang Xiaoyu from not contacting him after she returned to America.

Thinking of her daughter, Duo Duo, Tang Xiaoyu’s heart wavered. This time, when she returned to America, not only did she want to be a mother, but she also wanted to prove to Gu Zhengrong that she could be as successful and outstanding as Pei Ge.

“Mr Li, I’ll take this bracelet. If I really need help in the future, I’ll definitely look for you. When the time comes, don’t think that I’m too insignificant to forget what you said to me today.”

“How could that be? As long as you come to me, as long as you bring this bracelet to me, even if you don’t come to me, this bracelet will be worth the price of this plane.”

Mr Li looked kindly at his daughter in Tang Xiaoyu’s arms and stuck out his tongue to tease her. Her child-like smile became especially infectious in this small space. As long as Duo Duo laughed, the people around them would laugh as well, making them want to come over and take a look.

“Look at how cute this baby is.”
