Chapter 392: Xiao Jing Felt Sad
Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee
Tang Xi smiled, put her arms around Qiao Liang’s neck and whispered, “I was in the wrong too. I shouldn’t put myself in danger without telling you. I apologize for what I did. Sorry, I won’t do those things again. I’ll tell you before I’m going to do anything, provided….you and my family won’t be in danger. If you and my family will be endangered, I will still act as that day. If you don’t want me to take risks or be injured, you have to ensure that you won’t be hurt.”
That was her principle that Qiao Liang couldn’t be in any danger. Qiao Liang said he couldn’t do without her, and she couldn’t do without Qiao Liang either, so she would never allow Qiao Liang to be in danger.
Qiao Liang sighed helplessly, reached out to rub at her hair and said in a low voice, “Okay, I promise I won’t let myself get hurt, alright?”
Tang Xi pursed her lips and grunted in response. “That’s more like it.”
She turned her eyes to the bouquet of champagne rose and asked, “What do they stand for?”
She didn’t know much about flowers. Suddenly she felt that she wasted too much time. She didn’t ask Qiao Liang to give her a candlelight dinner, nor asked him to buy her flowers, but just asked him to take her to eat seafood… What a shame!
Qiao Liang raised his eyebrows and looked at the ninety-nine champagne roses, saying with a smile, “They told me champagne rose stands for that I only love you. I bought you these roses, because I wanted to tell you that I love only you.”
Tang Xi paused. It was the first time she heard these sweet words from Qiao Liang. She gazed at him and then kissed him on the lips. Qiao Liang hugged Tang Xi and continued the kiss. Just then, Xiao Jing woke up. He looked at the two sitting in the room, and almost fainted again. He coughed, asking, “Where is this? What happened to me?”

Tang Xi hurriedly pushed Qiao Liang away, stood up from Qiao Liang’s thighs and strode over to Xiao Jing’s bed. She looked at Xiao Jing and asked gently, “Jing, how do you feel?”
Xiao Jing looked at the slightly swollen lips of Tang Xi, and a gleam of sadness flickered across his eyes. God, he was in a coma but his sister was still in the mood to kiss a man! He was really angry! Xiao Jing stared accusingly at Qiao Liang who came up to him and asked coldly, “Why are you guys here? Is this your room? Did I faint again?”
Tang Xi didn’t notice the sly gleam in Xiao Jing’s eyes. She nodded, saying, “Yes, you suddenly fainted, but this is in your room. Qiao Liang and I are looking after you here.”
Yes, you are looking after me in my room by kissing at my bedside! That’s ridiculous! I feel ashamed of you two! Xiao Jing almost fainted in anger… If the two of them stayed in a room alone, then would he see his little niece or nephew in ten months?! No way! He couldn’t let this happen! He must nip it in the bud! His sister was still a high school student, and hadn’t even taken the college entrance exam!
“Well…” Xiao Jing took a look at Qiao Liang and said, “It’s late…”
“Yes, it’s late. Since you’ve woken up, you can pull out the needle yourself. Here is some nutrient porridge. Drink some and take a sleep.” Before Xiao Jing had finished, Qiao Liang had interrupted him with these words. He then walked over and looked down at Xiao Jing, saying, “I’ve cut off the reticle in your room, and replaced your cellphone with a non-smart phone, so now you won’t be able to play any games. Get up early tomorrow morning to pick up He Wanyi and Ning Yan from the airport.”

“Non-smart phone!!!” Xiao Jing glared at Qiao Liang. “Qiao Liang, fu… f*ck you! How can you take away my cell phone?! I can’t sleep without my cellphone!”
Qiao Liang cast a cold glance at Xiao Jing and said warningly, “Do you want to go to sleep or be knocked out by me…”
“Shit! You just want to take revenge on me because I interrupted your kiss with my sister!” Xiao Jing jumped up from the bed and glared at Qiao Liang, and his eyes were filled with anger. “Right?”
Tang Xi was speechless. “…” So her brother saw her kissing Qiao Liang?!
Oh, my gosh!
That’s really embarrassing!
Alas, her image had been ruined!
Oh, no!
Turning her eyes to Qiao Liang who looked nonchalant, Tang Xi stepped forward, looked at Xiao Jing and said awkwardly, “Well… Jing, maybe you had an illusion. Qiao Liang and I were not kissing…”
“Haha…” Xiao Jing snorted. “Give my cell phone back!”
Qiao Liang threw his cell phone back to him, took Tang Xi’s hand and was about to leave. Seeing that Xiao Jing happily held his cell phone and didn’t even look at her, Tang Xi suddenly felt a bit sad. Was cell phone more important than her in Jing’s mind? She blinked and was dragged out by Qiao Liang…
The next morning, Tang Xi came to call Xiao Jing to breakfast as soon as she got up. The latter had fully recovered after a night. He looked energetic when he opened the door. Tang Xi looked at his handsome face and smiled. “Jing, did you sleep well last night?”
Xiao Jing’s face darkened as soon as he heard this question. “Thanks to Qiao Liang, I had a sound sleep!”
Tang Xi chuckled. She had wondered why Qiao Liang returned Xiao Jing’s cell phone to him, he who was addicted to cell phones and wouldn’t sleep well with his cell phone next to him… but then Qiao Liang told her that that Xiao Jing’s cell phone was out of power and he had taken Xiao Jing’s charger away. That cell phone was not an ordinary smartphone, but was specially developed by Long Xiao. It couldn’t be charged without the dedicated charger. So it was almost impossible for Xiao Jing to charge his cell phone.
Now it seemed that Qiao Liang’s way worked!
When Xiao Jing saw that Qiao Liang did not come with Tang Xi, his eyes brightened. He took Tang Xi’s hand and asked happily, “Rourou, are you going to the airport with me? Qiao Liang won’t go with us, will he?”
Tang Xi smiled. “I have something to deal with today, so I’m afraid you’ll have to pick up sister Wanyi and the others alone. Now let’s go downstairs to grab some food. Qiao Liang is waiting for us downstairs. What do you want for breakfast?”
Xiao Jing narrowed his eyes and looked at Tang Xi. “So you two have lived together in secret?”
