The chief ex-husband won't let go of Yi Xiaobao

In the height of summer, I deeply resonate with the saying that perseverance leads to victory.

She knew that Lin Qingran had suffered a lot of grievances and hardships by Gu Moxuan's side over the years, so she always wanted Lin Qingran to be with the person who loved her.

After all, this way, you don't have to put in too much effort to manage it, and you don't have to worry about not getting any results.

Lin Qingran stepped into the elevator and saw Sheng Xia still standing there, looking at her with slight concern.

She knew what Sheng Xia was worried about, her lips pursed slightly, and her eyes held a touch of elegance.

Her interactions with Huo Ye must be very relaxed.

Moreover, Huo Ye was very considerate of her feelings.

I won't ask any more questions.

Lin Qingran was very used to Huo Ye's way of getting along, and it didn't make her feel uncomfortable at all.

During their conversation, Huo Ye glanced at her forehead several times, but he never asked what was wrong.

It's obvious that they've already seen the trending topics.

Now, her relationship with Lu Xueqi is irreconcilable, and bringing up the injury only upsets her.

Huo Ye had always cared about her feelings, so how could Lin Qingran not see it?

After picking up Lin Jinjin from the kindergarten, Lin Qingran drove back to her residence.

However, when they arrived at their apartment building, they saw Huo Ye sitting in the front of the car, waiting for them outside the complex.

He was holding a cell phone and making a call.

Lin Qingran paused for a moment, and then heard her cell phone ringing from inside her bag.

She looked up at Huo Ye, drove straight over, and stopped next to him.

"Didn't you say you still had things to take care of?"

Upon seeing Lin Qingran inside the car, Huo Ye immediately wore a faint smile, his eyes calm and elegant, and spoke softly.

“I had other things to take care of, but then I was notified that they were all taken care of. I figured you would come back after you picked up the kids, so I just waited for you here.”

Lin Qingran pursed her lips slightly.

Lin Jinjin was dozing in the car when she suddenly heard Huo Ye's voice and immediately perked up.

She opened the car window, leaned over it, and looked at Huo Ye with an exceptionally bright smile.

"Uncle Huo."

Hearing Lin Jinjin's crisp voice, Huo Ye couldn't help but smile, his gaze falling on her with tenderness in his eyes.

"Mommy needs to park the car. Do you want to come over to Uncle's side?"

Lin Jinjin immediately nodded obediently, opened her arms, and wanted Huo Ye to hug her.

Huo Ye's smile remained unchanged as he reached out and lifted Lin Jinjin out of the car.

"Go park the car first."

Lin Qingran nodded and parked the car within the parking lines on the side of the road.

Seeing Huo Ye holding Lin Jinjin and talking to her, the two seemed to be in a very harmonious state.

Lin Jinjin's face was also full of smiles, and Lin Qingran looked at Lin Jinjin's happy smile with a touch of warmth in her eyes.

"Let's go."

She walked to Huo Ye's side, carrying a handbag, and looked to be in excellent spirits.

If it weren't for the bandage wrapped around her forehead, no one would have guessed that she was injured.

Huo Ye carried Lin Jinjin to the car and sat her down. He looked deeply at Lin Qingran's forehead before walking to the driver's seat and starting the car.

He said softly after getting into the car.

"Let's go get something light to eat."

Upon hearing this, Lin Qingran immediately understood his meaning and then spoke softly.

"Let's eat whatever you like, don't worry about my feelings."

She's injured now and can't eat anything too spicy, otherwise she'll have a scar on her forehead later.

Lin Qingran just didn't expect that Huo Ye would pay attention to her feelings in such small things.

In fact, if Gu Moxuan had paid a little more attention to her, perhaps things wouldn't have come to this.

Thinking back to Gu Moxuan, Lin Qingran's eyes filled with a touch of melancholy.

"Let's go, I also have an appointment with your older brother and Miss Sheng."

Huo Ye looked at Lin Qingran's elegant demeanor and said softly.

Lin Qingran was startled by the sound.

When did you make the appointment?

She had no idea.

Huo Ye's eyes remained calm as he answered in a low voice.

"I called Mayor Lin before I called you."

"It's quite a coincidence that he happens to be free today."

Lin Qingran nodded gently, a hint of a smile in her eyes, and said softly.

“My older brother has already resigned and stepped down; he is currently just handling the handover process.”

This was the first time Huo Ye had heard such news, but considering the Sheng family's past situation and Lin Hao's current status, he was impressed.

Love and career are ultimately mutually exclusive.

Lin Hao's ability to make such a choice during the peak of his career is something many people cannot do.

"Mayor Lin is a very responsible person."

Upon hearing this, Lin Qingran pursed her red lips. During the years Lin Hao was in office, he missed out on many things in his life.

So for Lin Hao, it's also a regret.

Now, Sheng Xia is someone he can't afford to miss again in his life, which is why Lin Hao made this decision.

One is my closest relative, and the other is my best friend.

Lin Qingran naturally wished them well and hoped they would be happy.

In the past few years, Sheng Xia has had no men around her, except for Gong Juncheng.

But Sheng Xia's attitude towards Gong Juncheng is already very clear.

Therefore, Lin Qingran felt that Lin Hao's decision to resign in exchange for his love was worthwhile.

The long wait over the years has not been in vain.

Huo Ye brought Lin Qingran to the restaurant. As soon as they arrived at the entrance and parked the car, Sheng Xia got out of Lin Hao's car.

Lin Qingran was smiling and about to greet Lin Hao and Sheng Xia when suddenly a car stopped in front of them.

Judging from the logo on the car, it's a Geely Emgrand Group vehicle.

Lin Qingran paused for a moment.

Sure enough, a short while later, Gu Moxuan got out of the car.

His face was cold and stern, and when he saw her, he glanced at her indifferently.

His eyes were filled with deep dissatisfaction.

His gaze then shifted from Lin Qingran to Lin Jinjin in Huo Ye's arms.

Lin Jinjin looked at Gu Moxuan expectantly.

This time, however, she didn't greet him as proactively as before; her bright little eyes gleamed at Gu Moxuan.

"Jinjin, come to Daddy's side."

Upon hearing this, Lin Qingran's expression changed. Just as she was about to speak, she saw Lin Jinjin excitedly spread her arms and rush towards Gu Moxuan.

"Daddy."

Her voice was excited, and her tone was sweet as she spoke.

Gu Moxuan reached out and hugged Lin Jinjin, his eyes filled with tenderness.

"How about we go out to eat with Daddy? Grandma's here too."

Upon hearing Gu Moxuan's words, Lin Jinjin's expression flickered with hesitation as she looked at Lin Qingran with some doubt.

Can Mommy come along too?

Lin Qingran paused when she saw Gu Moxuan looking at her.

How could she possibly dine with Gu Moxuan?

With Gu Moxuan present, it's impossible for Lu Xueqi to be absent.

"Mommy has to stay with Uncle Huo and Uncle. If you want to go with Daddy, then you can go with Daddy. Mommy will come find you in a little while."

Lin Qingran hesitated for a moment, but ultimately decided to let Lin Jinjin go with Gu Moxuan.

After all, Gu Moxuan is still Lin Jinjin's father.

Although she felt some resentment that her child wasn't with her, she ultimately had no right to prevent Lin Jinjin from liking her father.
