Huang Li and Liu Tao's wedding was a lively affair. Liu Tao is introverted, while Huang Li is lively and outgoing. Their personalities complement each other perfectly. I believe they will have a very happy life together in the future.

After getting married, they bought a small house outside. He didn't quit his job as a driver; he would go back to his own little home after get off work.

After the wedding, Qin Baobao began to organize her assets. Several supermarkets had already opened, and they seemed poised to expand further. She handed over the villa, along with the other property, to Duan Jiufeng.

In addition, there are the gadgets that Duan Jiufeng has developed for the country at the research institute over the past few years. As long as he doesn't do anything drastic, there won't be any problems.

Moreover, I've recently heard rumors that the research institute has produced a longevity pill that can increase a person's lifespan by fifty years. This must be Qi Yunzi's doing again.

"Sister Xiaoyu, what are you doing?" Duan Jiufeng felt like Qin Baobao was giving her last words, and the feeling was not pleasant at all.

“My sister only has this much asset, and she’s always traveling around. It’s not convenient to manage. If it’s registered in your name, you can mortgage it if you need funds.”

"I don't want to." She felt that if she accepted, her sister would leave her. She was an adult now; if her sister left this time, would she never come back?

Duan Jiufeng has the Green Gang and the protection of the state. He doesn't really lack these things. Giving them to him is just to leave him with something to remember him by.

"Sister Xiaoyu, can't you stay?" Duan Jiufeng asked, his head bowed and clutching the hem of his clothes. He never imagined that he would have to resort to this tactic of playing the victim and begging for his sister's sympathy now that he was all grown up.

"Xiao Feng, you've grown up."

So it's not needed anymore, right?

Duan Jiufeng's heart sank to the bottom. Is it not okay, sister?

Perhaps it was a mixture of inner fear and unease that transformed into an unspeakable selfishness and possessiveness. Duan Jiufeng wanted to lock her up, to lock her up somewhere no one could find her.

But no, his sister is so good to him, even if his heart is bleeding, he doesn't want to hurt her.

"Sister Xiaoyu?" Duan Jiufeng looked up, his eyes blurry with tears, unable to control himself any longer.

"You silly child, why are you still the same as before?" I really wonder how he became the leader of the Green Gang. Do you think crying will soften people's hearts?

I wanted to ruffle Duan Jiufeng's hair like I did when he was little. But circumstances wouldn't allow it; I could only reach his shoulder with my raised hand. I patted his shoulder for comfort, wondering if his hair would still be soft now that he's grown up. It must be stiff and hard to touch.

During her time at home, Duan Jiufeng stayed with her the whole time. He told her what had happened in the gang, what achievements he had made in the laboratory, and how annoying Li Mo was now, always opposing him.

Qin Baobao believed everything else, but she didn't believe Li Mo would go against her. Putting aside their years of getting to know each other, Li Mo, with his personality, wouldn't do something as petty as constantly opposing others.

Duan Jiufeng knew his sister didn't believe him, but she continued to speak ill of him in a sarcastic and sour tone. He figured that if she kept saying it, she would eventually believe him.

Qin Baobao was about to leave, so she wanted to spend some quality time with him. She didn't argue back, no matter how sour he said.

Seeing his sister's indulgence, Duan Jiufeng seemed encouraged and became more and more enthusiastic, eventually portraying Li Mo as a wicked person who committed all sorts of evil deeds, including theft and prostitution.

"Hehe," this finally made Qin Baobao laugh.

Duan Jiufeng knew his description was far-fetched, but as long as he could make his sister laugh, it was all worth it.

That day, Duan Jiufeng had to go to the laboratory to handle some matters. Qin Baobao was bored at home and finally had a change of heart and went to take care of her career.

After finding out the manager's information about the supermarket's sales over the past few years, Qin Baobao decided to find a place to eat first. As she turned around, she saw Li Mo.

His chest heaved, and his hair was slightly disheveled. He had clearly heard she was here and had come specifically to see her.

Is there something you can't say at home? After all, we live so close, and I've shamelessly gone over to eat and drink with you quite a few times before.

"Can we find a place to sit down and talk? I think Duan Jiufeng will be here soon." Li Mo took a breath and invited Qin Baobao to chat.

Qin Baobao was a little surprised. What did this have to do with Duan Jiufeng? But she still followed Li Mo to the coffee shop on the fifth floor.

Once the two sat down facing each other, Li Mo didn't know what to do.

Regardless of whether Qin Baobao believes it or not, he simply cannot bring himself to speak ill of others behind their backs.

"I don't know how to bring this up, but it's about your brother." Li Mo guessed that Qin Baobao probably didn't know.

"Just say what you have to say! We've been friends for so many years, I still trust your character." What could Duan Jiufeng possibly have to do? As long as he hasn't completely turned to the dark side, everything else is trivial.

"Don't you think your brother is too clingy?" Li Mo decided to subtly remind Qin Baobao that her brother had inappropriate feelings for her.

I thought it was something important, something worth Li Mo making a special trip for. Wait a minute! Too clingy? Clingy to whom? Li Mo?

Qin Baobao carefully sized up Li Mo. He was gentle and refined, with an elegant demeanor, kind and generous, and young and wealthy. Could it be… that Xiao Feng has fallen for Li Mo?

There were signs, too. Back then, whenever Li Mo tried to curry favor with her, Xiao Feng would immediately chime in. Turns out, he was jealous!

Qin Baobao never imagined that Duan Jiufeng was jealous because of her. Back then, Duan Jiufeng was still young and wouldn't even look at her. He always kept his head down, looking pitiful. Now that he's older, he's better at hiding his emotions. It's completely impossible to tell what he's thinking.

"You two were together?"

What do you mean, "together"? What are you doing together? It took Li Mo a while to realize what Qin Baobao had said, but he wished he hadn't heard that suffocating statement.

"I'm talking about you." Li Mo had never lost his composure like this before, and he said it almost through gritted teeth.

"Xiao Feng lost his parents at a young age and suffered a lot afterward. It's normal for him to be a little clingy when he meets someone who treats him well." He knew Qin Baobao wouldn't believe him.

What if I told you that he likes you?

"Impossible, right? We're four years apart, and I've always considered him my younger brother." Looking at Li Mo's serious face, Qin Baobao trailed off.

"These past few years while you were away, he's been causing me trouble at every turn." This... this is something Li Mo would actually say? Are the two of them tattling on each other? Qin Baobao didn't know what expression to make.

"Sister, what are you doing here?" Duan Jiufeng's voice sounded sunny and clear, like a vibrant young man.

"Brother Li is here too? Why haven't you been coming over for dinner lately? I haven't seen Xiaozhu in a long time, I miss her quite a bit." Where is the affection in this? Upon seeing Li Mo, she completely forgot about him with just one sentence and went to be affectionate with her "Brother Li."

All our efforts were in vain, I knew it would end like this! This guy is too cunning.

Li Mo was furious; his fingers, gripping the coffee spoon so tightly, turned white. He'd made a fatal mistake; this time, he was defeated.

"I've been quite busy lately, so I've been delayed. Little Pearl was asking to go a while ago. Luckily, I'm free right now. How about we meet tomorrow? We'll also buy two bottles of red wine, and we'll have a proper get-together."

"Okay, then Brother Li, you must come on time tomorrow. Sister Xiaoyu and I are waiting for you at home." We'll see if you can make it then.

The two of them were chatting and laughing together, looking just like a close-knit young couple. Qin Baobao couldn't get a word in edgewise; this was just too much PDA!

Qin Baobao is now completely certain that the two are having an affair. Although Li Mo is currently against it, even a strong woman can be won over by persistence. Hopefully, the two will end up together.
