Beautiful Wife from Heaven: Mr. Qi, Let’s Get Married

You’re Still Young

Qi Shenbai nodded. “Yes, your brother has been busy with the project at hand recently and doesn’t have time to take care of you, so you can look for me if you need anything.”

After graduation, Xu Zhengyang did not stay in the Xu family’s small company. Instead, he entered the Qi Corporation and could be considered Qi Shenbai’s right-hand man. He was usually very busy with work.

Xu Jiaojiao nodded. “Got it. Thank you.”

After a few seconds of silence, Qi Shenbai said, “You’re still young. You have many choices in the future. Since you missed out on him, it means that you’re not suitable for each other. Don’t be too conflicted about it.”

Xu Jiaojiao’s eyes slowly widened. These words… Were they meant to comfort her?

When Qi Shenbai saw Xu Jiaojiao staring at him without saying a word, he thought that she did not agree with him. He frowned and asked, “Do you think I’m wrong?”

Xu Jiaojiao finally reacted and quickly shook her head. “No, no, you’re right. I’ve long gotten over him. It’s just that after hearing his words today, I suddenly realized that I’ve never really understood him. He’s completely different from the person I imagined. Right now, I can’t even imagine what it would be like if I really married him.”

Qi Shenbai knew that Xu Jiaojiao was young and had grown up in the countryside, so it was inevitable that she was a little naive and did not understand the complexity and darkness of human nature. He said, “The human heart is unpredictable. You’re still young. When you grow up, you’ll realize that these things aren’t a big deal.”

Xu Jiaojiao could not help but glance at him and muttered, “Why do you keep saying that I’m young? I’m already twenty years old. I’m not young anymore.”

“What did you say?” Her voice was so soft that Qi Shenbai could not hear her clearly.

“I want to thank Lu Zhuo for not marrying me.” Xu Jiaojiao smiled widely. “I also want to thank Mr. Qi for being there that day. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been the only one to lose face. Our entire family would have been humiliated.”

When Qi Shenbai saw the smile on her face again and how energetic she was, the corners of his lips subconsciously curled up. “Yes, it’s good that you can understand.” Although this little girl was young, she was much more sensible than his sister, Yunduo. No wonder that dog Xu Zhengyang protected her like a treasure.

Xu Jiaojiao did not know if it was because of Qi Shenbai’s counseling, but she did not feel so depressed anymore. It was just as Qi Shenbai had said, the human heart was unpredictable. In the past, she had thought of people too naively. Even if Lu Zhuo treated her well and warmed her heart, it was normal for people to change after so much time.

After thinking this through, Xu Jiaojiao’s mood became even lighter. As soon as she entered her room, she heard her phone vibrate. The moment she picked up the call, Su Luo’s heart-wrenching scream rang out from the other end. “Xu Jiaojiao!”

Only then did Xu Jiaojiao remember her promise with Su Luo. She quickly apologized, “I’m sorry, Luoluo. Something happened on my end. I didn’t mean to stand you up.”

However, before she could finish speaking, Su Luo started rambling, “Alright, alright. Forget about that for now. Tell me who that tragically handsome man is first!”

“Huh?” Xu Jiaojiao was stunned for a moment before she instinctively said, “Luoluo, you can’t call someone ‘tragically handsome’…”

“That’s not the point! That man is the point! That handsome man!” Su Luo emphasized.

“Luoluo, calm down and hear me out.” Xu Jiaojiao hugged a pillow and sat on the sofa. She briefly explained the situation.

After Su Luo heard everything, she was silent for a full three minutes before she started to scream again. “Ahhhhhh!”

Xu Jiaojiao had no choice but to move the phone away from her ear. When the screams stopped, she put the phone back to her ear and Su Luo’s excited voice rang out, “Waaaah, what kind of a novel plot is that?! They say that truth is stranger than fiction. They’re right!”

Xu Jiaojiao blinked. “…”

Su Luo was still agitated. “Jiaojiao! You’re the chosen one! Not only did this man help you, but he even saved you today. You have to devote your life to him!”

Xu Jiaojiao rolled her eyes. “Luoluo, are you kidding me? Do you know who he is?”

Su Luo said, “He’s handsome! He’s a peerless, handsome man!”

There was nothing Xu Jiaojiao could do about her best friend who was obsessed with looks. She could only say, “He’s my brother’s good friend and also his superior, the president of the Qi Group, Qi Shenbai.”

Su Luo fell quiet. “…”

After a moment of silence, Su Luo spoke again, but this time, she was obviously not as confident as before. “Even if… he is the president of the Qi Group, it’s not impossible for you. You’re an amazing girl. You’re the one who should be picky with your suitors, not the other way round…”
