Li Muhao struggled to stand. The way Li Muhao looked at Ma Haodong, who was sitting across from him, had changed.
Li Muhao realized heâd almost made a huge mistake.
The man who had beaten Li Muhao up a few times wasnât an average nobody, he was the young master of Rongma Group. Ma Hangcheng was one of Li Muhaoâs most significant money sources, which made Ma Haodong the same too.
Li Muhaoâs real estate company had dealings with Rongma. Without the giant conglomerate, his company wouldâve closed down long ago.
Just the thought of almost taking out the son of Ma Hangcheng was enough to send chills down Li Muhaoâs spine. He was lucky that heâd asked someone to search Ma Haodongâs background before taking action.
On the other side, Xiao Yuqian was talking to Su Jimo, and she brought Nie Zhenglan up in the conversation.
Su Jimo hoped that Xiao Yuqian could help her change Nie Zhenglanâs mind.
âI will,â Xiao Yuqian said. âI believe that Lanlan still has feelings for you. Just try harder. Iâll find a way to get the two of you to meet.â
âHmm... Why donât I book a camping site?â Su Jimo suggested. âTry and invite her and donât tell her that Iâm going too. Letâs just say that me being there is a coincidence.â
âThatâs a good idea. Let me know when youâve booked the place, and Iâll contact her.â
Xiao Yuqian smiled. She couldnât help but think that the two-time Best Actor winner in front of her was going crazy because of his wife.
After the break had ended, Su Jimo went back on set with other celebrities.
Xiao Yuqian waited for a while before leaving with Ma Haodong.
...
It was the weekend, and the weather was great.
Xiao Yuqian picked Nie Zhenglan up and took her to the island that Su Jimo had booked.
When Nie Zhenglan saw Xiao Yuqian arriving with a good looking man, she couldnât help but think that they were dating.
Nie Zhenglan asked Xiao Yuqian about it, but she denied it.
Ma Haodong drove them to the port while the two women chatted in the back seat.
They took the yacht to the island and prepared their camps.
While Ma Haodong set the tents up, Xiao Yuqian and Nie Zhenglan rested under the shade.
Nie Zhenglan noticed that Ma Haodong kept looking at Xiao Yuqian, and Xiao Yuqian was looking back.
âJust admit it,â Nie Zhenglan said. âYou two are dating.â
âNot at all. Heâs just one of the new actors working under me. Plus, heâs around my little brotherâs age.â
Xiao Yuqian quickly explained as she blushed.
âYou know, age isnât a problem at all,â Nie Zhenglan said. âThe most important thing in a relationship is how you feel about him. If youâre happy and heâs able to make you feel safe, then thatâs the right person. Donât wait until heâs gone, or youâll start to regret it.â
Nie Zhenglanâs words woke Xiao Yuqian up.
Nie Zhenglan was right. Xiao Yuqian had been locking her heart up, never giving in to the thought that someone younger than her would actually suit her.
Li Muhao was older than her, but reality showed her that being older did not mean being more responsible.
Xiao Yuqian looked at Ma Haodong, who was working hard to set up the tent. She thought about the question that heâd asked the other day. She suddenly realized something.
What if heâs the right person for me? Would I regret it if he left?
