The Overbearing CEO's Little Wildcat (47)

While some of them inevitably weren't quite right, they were useful nonetheless.

Later, the little girl fed him water from her small canteen before running down the mountain to find help.

But once she left, she never returned.

He, on the other hand, was rescued by the bodyguards his grandfather had sent to find him.

"Jiaojiao! You're Jiaojiao!"

At this point in his memory, Qin Mohan excitedly swept Su Qiao into his arms, holding her tightly.

"Let go, let go of me."

Suddenly held in such a tight grip, Su Qiao pushed him impatiently, but her strength was useless; she couldn't push him away.

She could only say, annoyed, "Who's Jiaojiao? What I said back then was clearly Qiaoqiao. How did it become such a tacky name as Jiaojiao?"

Jiaojiao? Was she not weak enough as she was now, not even 1.7 meters tall?

To give her such a weak name.

"Haha, Jiaojiao, you are my little Jiaojiao!"

Qin Mohan acted as if he hadn't heard her, like a child, holding her and laughing as he spun around in the center of the room.

"I searched for you in Bai City for a long time, but I couldn't find you. Later, because of my eyes, I had to go abroad for treatment."

"When I returned from abroad a few years ago, I sent people to search Bai City again for a long time, almost turning Bai City upside down, but I still couldn't find you. Turns out you were hiding in B City."

Su Qiao was almost out of breath. She struggled to lift her head from his embrace and rolled her eyes in annoyance.

"Who's hiding in B City? My family is originally from B City. I was just playing at my grandma's house back then."

"Stop, you're making me dizzy. And also, it's nighttime now. Be careful not to wake everyone up."

Pounding the man's shoulders, Su Qiao struggled to get down.

Qin Mohan ignored her, carried her to the edge of the bed, and rested his head on her shoulder, contentedly smelling her scent.

"So what if they wake up?" It was none of his business.

The hot breath on her neck made Su Qiao feel ticklish and a little unaccustomed.

Her head instinctively pulled back, and she pushed him hard, "Let go, I need to sleep. I'm not going to fool around with you anymore."

If they kept this up, she wouldn't get any sleep tonight.

There was a good show to watch after dawn, and she needed to rest well.

Qin Mohan lifted his head, grinning like an innocent child.

His usually deep and melancholic dark eyes now sparkled with a pure, clean light, like stars in the night sky.

"Hehe, Jiaojiao, I'm happy, I'm really happy."

It was a happiness he had never experienced in all these years.

Su Qiao hadn't expected this man to have such a side.

His hearty laughter even made his usually somber and stern face look sunny, like a cheerful young man.

Stared at by his earnest and sincere dark eyes, Su Qiao suddenly felt a little shy.

Perhaps influenced by him, her mood unconsciously lightened and became pleasant, and the corners of her mouth involuntarily curved into a smile.

They were very close, their breaths seemingly intertwined.

At some point, in the softly lit room, a strange ambiguity permeated the air.

Su Qiao uncomfortably turned her head away, avoiding his increasingly fervent gaze. "Ahem, let's sleep."

A hint of regret flashed in Qin Mohan's eyes.

Holding the warm, soft person in his arms felt like holding the whole world. "Okay, then I'll sleep with you."

In truth, he couldn't sleep at all at that moment; every cell in his body was boiling and cheering.

Excitement, exhilaration, contentment…

Su Qiao shot him a disdainful look. "Who wants you to sleep with them?"

This man was really pushing his luck. She knew she shouldn't have given him a good impression.
