My Dangerous Billionaire Husband

Chapter 1334: I Love You

“I’m sorry.” There was nothing else she could say.

“I don’t want your apology. You didn’t do anything to me. The one you should be apologising to is Gong Yi. I’m begging you, please, please leave my son.”

Bai Beibei stared at her feet. After a long while, she agreed. “Alright.”

As she said this, large tears fell from her eyes.

Old Man Gong did not expect her to agree so readily. It left him stunned.

Bai Beibei stood up and offered Old Man Gong a stiff bow, “I’m really sorry. Please accept my apology. I’ve troubled you greatly. Please accept this apology on behalf of my mother as well. I don’t know whether she’ll ever be released in this lifetime, but perhaps it is for the best. I’ll take my leave first. Please... be more careful with your health... Gong Yi. Even if you don’t believe me, I really do love Gong Yi very much. Goodbye.”

Bai Beibei departed, having said all she needed to say.

Old Man Gong stared at the girl’s back. Her frail body seemed even frailer than before. It looked like she had lost a lot of weight. Her lonely silhouette, as she ran away, caused Old Man Gong’s heart to ache.

However, Old Man Gong quickly hardened his heart. It was not hard considering how she had lied to both him and his son.

Unforgivable!

...

Gong Yi rolled his wrist, glancing at his watch. He had gotten off work at five o’clock today, hoping to return home a little earlier.

Bai Beibei had been in a bad mood for the past few days. He wanted to return home early to accompany her. They also had to consider wedding arrangements. Beibei had yet to pick out her wedding dress or the flowers she liked to have at their wedding. He also needed to confirm the number of guests and the type of wedding she preferred.

He wanted to give her a wedding she would never forget.

Upon stepping out of the office, he saw a familiar figure. It was Bai Beibei. She stood waiting for him by the car.

“Beibei, why are you here?” Startled, he immediately rushed to her side.

The refreshing autumn wind ruffled her hair, sending her silky tresses whipping in the light breeze. Smiling warmly, she said, “Gong Yi, I’m here to pick you up from work.”

“Why’re you so nice to me today?” Gong Yi stroked her hair with one hand while he used his other to hold her smaller ones. “Let’s go home.”

“Wait, Gong Yi.” Bai Beibei stopped him.

“What’s wrong?”

“Let’s go for a walk.”

“Sure.” Walking home sounded rather romantic, so Gong Yi readily agreed. Clasping her small hand around his own, the two of them walked down the street together. action

“Beibei, you didn’t choose your wedding dress last night. What kind of wedding dress do you like? One-shouldered, breast-bound, V-neck?” As he spoke, Gong Yi eyed Bai Beibei’s chest and said, “Definitely no V-necks. I don’t want other men ogling you.”

Bai Beibei’s eyes lit up. She could almost see herself in a wedding dress. For that one short moment in time, she was visited by a vision of bliss.

“I would prefer something more modest.” Bai Beibei said gently.

“Mm, okay.” Gong Yi nodded. “Who would you like to invite to our wedding?”

“I’ll leave that to you. I don’t have any family anyway.”

Gong Yi’s heart truly ached for her. Beibei didn’t have any family or friends. She was like a swaying boat pulled and pushed by the current.

He held her hand tightly. “That’s okay. I’m all you’ll ever need. I will be your one and only, your entire world.”

Bai Beibei quickly looked up at the auburn sky, suppressing the hot tears that threatened to spill forth. She did not want him to see her cry – although the tears welling up were those of happiness.

The two of them walked into a park. There were many people flying kites at this hour.

Bai Beibei stopped in her tracks.

“Do you want to fly a kite?”

“Yes.” Bai Beibei nodded.

“Wait a moment.” Gong Yi ran ahead. Soon, he returned with a five-coloured butterfly kite.

“Here.”

“But, I don’t know how to fly a kite.”

“That’s alright. I’ll teach you. Flying a kite is easy.”

Gong Yi used the wind to his advantage, throwing the kite upwards. Then, he quickly unwound the kite’s string. The kite soared into the sky like a bird, gliding to and fro.

“I’ll give you the string. It’ll let you control its height and speed.” Gong Yi stuffed the string into her small hands, hugging her from behind as he gently guided her actions.

Bai Beibei watched as the kite flew further and further away, swaying with the wind. It was so freely and so happily. She envied it.

Suddenly, the kite fell out of the sky.

“Hold on. I’ll go get it.” Gong Yi promised, running in the direction the kite had fallen.

Bai Beibei saw a family of three not a ways away. It comprised a small girl and her parents. The girl was flying a kite, and her mother was anxiously chasing her. “Baby, don’t run so quickly! You’ll fall!”

The little girl laughed as she called back to her parents. “Father, mother, come quickly!”

Bai Beibei’s heart melted at the sight of the small family of three. Surreptitiously, she folded the hem of her skirt and rubbed her lower abdomen.

“Beibei, I’ve got the kite! Let’s continue flying it.” Gong Yi ran over, a boyish grin tugging at his lips.

Bai Beibei watched as he walked towards her. The setting sun drew a halo of light around him, searing his handsome, roguish features in her mind’s eye. She would never forget him.

“Beibei, let’s...”

The kiss she planted on her lips silenced him.

Gong Yi was stunned, then smiled and said, “Why are you kissing me now?”

“Because I love you.”

Gong Yi’s eyes met hers. He saw the sparkling light dancing in her eyes – a light that sang of admiration and yearning. He released the kite in his hands, freeing it and setting it loose. Having found its second leg of freedom, the kite soared beyond the horizon and out of sight. Gong Yi wrapped his strong arms around her slender waist and returned the kiss in full. “I love you too, Beibei.”

...

In the Lamborghini...

“Gong Yi, let’s eat out tonight.”

“Sure, shall we have Western or Chinese?”

“Chinese.”

“Alright.”

Gong Yi parked the car in front of a hotel. The two of them got out of the car and entered a luxuriously furnished private room.

The waiter served the dishes a while later. Gong Yi reached for the glass of red wine.

Bai Beibei quickly stopped him. She frowned and said, “You shouldn’t drink so much.”

“It’s just red wine. A little won’t hurt. Let’s drink some together.”

“I don’t drink, and I’m forbidding you from drinking in the future. You’re not allowed to smoke or drink. You are, however, allowed to eat and sleep punctually. That’s the only way you’ll recover. Do I have your word?”

Gong Yi raised his eyebrows. “Why do you suddenly have so many rules? We’re not even married yet, and you’re already so strict with me!”

“Are you willing to do likewise?”

“Yes.” Gong Yi said, putting down the glass of red wine in his hand. “Let’s start eating.”

“Okay.”

Just as he was about to start eating, his phone rang.

He took out his phone and saw that it was Ajie calling.

“Hello, Ajie...” he picked up.

“President, I have something to report.”

“What is it?”

“Sun Xiaoxiao would like to see you.”

Sun Xiaoxiao...

Gong Yi turned his head to look at Bai Beibei beside him. She was eating with her head lowered.
