"Then Dad, go and have a rest." Li Nianyu said obediently.

Li Changting nodded and walked into his room.

He lay on the bed and closed his eyes, but Qiao Yuyue's figure appeared in his mind.

He recalled every little detail of their past, and those beautiful times seemed like they happened just yesterday.

However, reality is pulling them further and further apart.

Li Changting knew that he had to make changes, otherwise he would lose Qiao Yuyue forever.

He can no longer let power and desire control his life, he wants to find back the innocent self he once was.

The next day, Li Changting got up early. He decided to find Qiao Yuyue, apologize to her and show her his determination.

He came to Qiao Yuyue's residence, but found that she was not at home.

He waited for a long time until night fell, when Qiao Yuyue came back.

"Qiao Xi, I have something to tell you." Li Changting looked at Qiao Yuyue with a hint of pleading in his tone.

Qiao Yuyue looked at him with a hint of surprise in her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure: "Just say whatever you want to say."

"I know that I have done many wrong things in the past and hurt you. I apologize to you and hope you can forgive me." Li Changting bowed deeply.

Qiao Yuyue looked at him and felt a little moved, but she knew that this was not a problem that could be solved with just an apology.

She said calmly: "Forgive you? Why should I forgive you? The harm you have done to me cannot be made up with just an apology."

Li Changting felt a pain in his heart, but he knew that this was what he had to bear. He raised his head and looked at Qiao Yuyue: "I know that my previous behavior was excessive. But I have realized my mistakes and I am willing to change. I am willing to let go of the power and desires of the past and start over. I hope you can give me a chance to prove it to you."

Qiao Yuyue looked at him, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes.

"Li Changting, I've said that you and I will have no relationship in the future." Qiao Yuyue's voice was cold.

She didn't want to have any relationship with Li Changting anymore, even though Qiao Mihua was his child.

Li Changting's heart trembled, but he did not give up.

He knew that this was his last chance and he had to seize it.

"Qiao Xi, I know you may not believe me anymore. But please give me a chance and let me prove it to you. I will use my actions to make up for my past mistakes, and I will let you see a brand new me." There was a hint of pleading in Li Changting's voice.

"Get out of the way, I want to go home."

Qiao Yuyue spoke coldly and turned to leave.

Li Changting grabbed her arm and said, "Qiao Xi, listen to me. I really know I was wrong. I..."

"Let me go!" Qiao Yuyue angrily shook off his hand. She looked at Li Changting with disappointment and anger in her eyes.

"Li Changting, do you think I will forgive you if you say a few words of apology? You are wrong. I will never forget the hurt you have caused me. Please leave. I don't want to see you again."

After Qiao Yuyue finished speaking, she turned and left.

In fact, she was not angry with Li Changting.

There was nothing Li Changting did that was worth her being angry about.

She was just looking for an excuse to stay away from Li Changting.

She went straight home and refused entry to Li Changting.

"Mom, you're back." Qiao Mihua hugged Qiao Yuyue.

She could see that Qiao Yuyue's expression was not very good.

"Mom, where did you go today? Why did you come back just now?"

Qiao Yuyue stroked Qiao Mihua's head with a gentle smile on her face: "Mom had something to do today, so I came back late. Huahua, are you hungry? Mom will cook for you."

"Mom, what's the matter?" Qiao Mihua continued to ask.

"I went to meet a friend today, but she had something else to do, so she was delayed for a while."

Qiao Mihua blinked and asked curiously, "Is it Uncle Li?"

Qiao Yuyue was stunned for a moment, then smiled and shook her head: "No, it's another friend. That Uncle Li, Mom will never see him again."

Although Qiao Mihua is young, she can also feel Qiao Yuyue's coldness towards Li Changting.

She nodded and said obediently, "Okay, Mom. I don't like that Uncle Li either. He always makes you unhappy."

Qiao Yuyue felt warm in her heart and hugged Qiao Mihua tightly in her arms.

She knew that no matter how many difficulties and challenges there would be in the future, as long as Qiao Mihua was by her side, she would have endless strength and courage.

At this moment, Li Changting was standing outside Qiao Yuyue's door, his heart full of regret and self-blame.

He knew how much harm his past actions had caused Qiao Yuyue, and he also understood how much effort he would need to put in to make up for these mistakes.

But he did not give up, he knew he still had a long way to go.

He turned and left Qiao Yuyue's house, but his heart was full of determination.

He knew that he could no longer be like he had been in the past, focusing only on his own power and desires while ignoring the people around him.

He must learn to care about others, to respect others, and to cherish everything he has.

He began to reflect on his past and wonder why he became what he is now.

He realized that he had pursued power and status at all costs, even at the expense of those around him.

He understood that being like this not only disappointed Qiao Yuyue, but also made him lose true happiness and joy.

So he decided to change himself.

He no longer pursued those illusory power and status, but began to pay attention to the people and things around him.

He learned to care for others, respect others, and cherish everything he had.

He used his actions to make up for his past mistakes and to prove his change.

As time goes by, Li Changting's changes become more and more obvious.

He would send messages to Qiao Yuyue every day, telling her about his life and the changes he had made.

Although Qiao Yuyue did not reply to him, she read all the messages.

However, she was not easily impressed.

She knew that past hurts were not so easy to forget.

She needed time to heal her wounds, and also needed time to observe whether Li Changting had really changed.

"Niannian, are you willing to let Aunt Qiao Xi be your mother?" Li Changting asked Li Nianyu.

He couldn't deny that he had developed feelings for Qiao Xi.

Originally, he had always thought that after Qiao Yuyue passed away, he would raise Li Nianyu alone.

But in his contact with Qiao Xi, he found that he had slowly fallen in love with her.

He always felt that there was a shadow of Qiao Yuyue in Qiao Xi's words and deeds.

If it weren't for the huge difference in their appearance, he would really think that Qiao Xi was Qiao Yuyue.

Of course, he didn't know.

Qiao Xi is indeed Qiao Yuyue.
