My Secret Marriage : Meet With The Best One Chapter 68
Advertisement
Xiao Long went back into his room. He seemed to take a deep breath and then sat on the sofa. Seeing Qiao Xin, who was still perfectly curled up on the table, made Xiao Long look at the innocent face of Qiao Xin, who seemed to be sleeping. Xiao Long never expected that he would end up at this point, being found out by his grandfather, and it would be a fatal thing. Now, Xiao Long had to be willing to sleep in the same bed with Qiao Xin, which they couldn't deny at all. Xiao Long held his breath again, then he got up, picked up Qiao Xin's body, and laid her on the bed. Xiao Long then put a lot of barriers between him and Qiao Xin then he pulled an eyebrow.
"I will never let you touch my body, and cross your boundaries!" said Xiao Long while pointing at Qiao Xin, who was still asleep. After that, Xiao Long seemed to tidy up his hair, and then he rushed off to sleep perfectly. Tomorrow will probably be a long day, and tomorrow will be a tiring day.

This morning, Qiao Xin seemed to be blinking her eyes. Somehow, she slept very soundly and comfortably last night. She seemed to sleep on a pile of very soft foam. Qiao Xin then frowned. Once she realized where she was, she immediately took a seat. How come, how can she be in bed? Is she sleepwalking again?
Qiao Xin immediately jumped down when she saw Xiao Long wrapping a tie around her neck. Then Qiao Xin seemed to smile bitterly.
"That's about me sleeping on that bed," said Qiao Xin as she looked at Xiao Long with a guilty expression on her face. Xiao Long still seemed silent, ignoring the presence of Qiao Xin, who was beside him. "Did I sleepwalk again last night? Sorry, I'm going to wash—"
"Starting tonight you will sleep in bed."
"Okay," Qiao Xin replied. Then her eyes bulged at Xiao Long. "What?!" surprised then.
Xiao Long closed his eyes, and then he stuffed his ears which seemed to hurt from Qiao Xin's screams. Xiao Long didn't expect Qiao Xin to scream that loud.
"Are you crazy?"
"You're the crazy one. Are you saying I can sleep in the bed while you sleep downstairs?" Qiao Xin asked again. Xiao Long chuckled with his annoyed look.
"Do not dream."
"So?" asked Qiao Xin, who needed an explanation. Xiao Long immediately brought his face close to Qiao Xin's face making their noses meet accidentally. Xiao Long and Qiao Xin looked at each other for a moment, then Qiao Xin immediately turned her face away from Xiao Long.

"Grandpa has seen you sleeping stupidly on the table, it's all because of you. That's why Grandpa threatened me if from last night he had to see you sleeping on the bed."
"But, does Grandpa know about our troubles?" asked Qiao Xin, who seemed to be starting to get scared. How could it not be, if Xiao Chuan found out about the matter of their lies and contract marriage, it would not be a pleasant thing at all. Everything would end right then and there.
Xiao Long looked silent, and he was also reluctant to say anything else. He didn't want Qiao Xin to think about it, and it would not be good for everyone. For then Xiao Long looked at Qiao Xin, then shook his head.
"No, it's just that we have to be careful from now on. It is with a heavy heart that an ugly rat like you I allow to sleep on my precious and holy bed, but you must also know the limits. Tonight I will put up a barrier for us, and you never cross that barrier. if you ever cross that barrier—"
"Not just me, I'm a woman. In the very quiet night, my honor is threatened every moment when I am unconscious. So, we are the rules for us!" Qiao Xin protested perfectly. Xiao Long took a deep breath, and then he took a deep breath.
"Alright, alright. The rules are for both of us though I would be impossible and impossible to break the rules. My sleep is like a sleeping beauty, very calm, beautiful and charming. So I will never do anything bad to you. I don't know if it's you. So now what will happen is whoever breaks this rule, who crosses their limit then they will get punished. How?" Xiao Long said, giving an idea. Qiao Xin smiled and nodded in agreement.
"Okay, I agree!"
Xiao Long's smile immediately faded, then he looked at Qiao Xin with a cold expression on his face.
"Hurry up and take a shower, you'll be late for work." After saying that, Xiao Long immediately rushed to his work's room, causing Qiao Xin to rush into the bathroom.
Xiao Long turned his head back then smiled. Somehow, he found it very funny with Qiao Xin's behavior this morning.
What? Funny?
Xiao Long immediately slapped himself, and then he shook his head. What happened to him? How could he think that Qiao Xin was cute?
"I must have gone crazy," Xiao Long grumbled. He immediately turned his head when he saw the bracelet vibrates. The red color in his eyes seemed to change to emerald green. Xiao Long didn't understand what was happening. But he immediately ignored it.

"Young Mr. Han,"
"Hmm?"
"I want to tell you something,"
Xiao Long glanced at Tao, who was currently in a car. Xiao Long seemed to respond calmly, and then he turned his face away. Talking to Tao in the morning was a nuisance for him,
"I just found out that yesterday was Young Lady Han's first day leaving for work at Weijing Group. there she became the assistant of Mr. Li to handle and investigate the corruption case that was there, and it also happened that Mr. Xuan worked there as well. the two have met and become good friends," Tao then handed Xiao Long some photos, making Xiao Long look at the photos. In the photo, three people are sitting and joking cheerfully at a table in the cafeteria, Xuan Cheng, Qiao Xin, and another Xiao Long who doesn't know him at all. "The woman who was with Young Lady Han was named Mei, she was a friend of Young Lady Han when they both worked at the W Corporation, and the other was Mr. Xuan. Mr. Xuan even departed from the night and last night until 21:00 accompanied Young Lady Han to work overtime on the tasks assigned by Mr. Li. It's pretty clear that Mr. Xuan has other work to do."
"Let it go, who really cares? Why do you have to report it to me about a matter like this?"
"Does Young Mr. Han not feel jealous or hurt at all? I mean, maybe if Young Mr. Han isn't worried but this isn't a good thing. Young Lady Han is after all your wife, what if the public finds out the truth, surely they will think strange things about Young Lady Han."
"Don't they know? After all, this marriage is hidden, isn't it?"
"But is Young Mr. Han willing for Mr. Xuan to be close to Young Lady Han? Mr. Xuan is not one to go easy with women, Young Mr. Han, lest it be heard that the woman that Mr. Xuan is courting is Young Mr. Han's wife, it must be a very complicated matter. And would Young Mr. Han accept that Young Lady Han was approached by Mr. Xuan? Young Lady Han is yours, you should take care of her with all your heart."
Xiao Long then kept quiet, and he didn't say anything then. He took a deep breath and was busy with his thoughts. He was confused, really confused, about what to do. Xiao Long didn't know. However, there was something Tao said that was the truth, and he must not let Qiao Xin get close to Xuan Cheng. It's nothing, and it's just that Xiao Long doesn't accept that Xuan Cheng keeps his pride low.
"Well it looks like what you're saying is quite reasonable. I will think about this matter properly and properly. And now we must immediately go to the company because there is one thing we have to do. Say what's my schedule for today? because this afternoon I have personal business."
"What business, Young Mr. Han?" Tao asked.
Xiao Long didn't reply, and he just looked at Tao with an extremely cold gaze, making Tao immediately swallow his saliva with difficulty. How could he not? He knew that if the boss had been silent with that cold expression on his face, then what happened was a very bad thing, a sign that the boss didn't want to be bothered with anything.
"Mr. Chen, are you sleepy right now?" Tao finally asked Xiao Long's private driver.
"No, Tao. Just a little unwell."
"If you're not feeling well, let me drive you to rest."
"We have to go to the hospital first," Xiao Long decided in the end. Both the private driver and his right hand immediately turned perfectly. "Why are you looking at me like that? shouldn't someone as handsome as me go to the hospital?" annoyed Xiao Long.
"You mean what are we going to the hospital for, Young Mr. Han? There will be a meeting soon, if we go to the hospital—"
"Reschedule the meeting, Tao replaces Mr. Chen driving. We have to go to the hospital so that Mr. Chen can get the best treatment for his illness. I don't want to be rumored to be a terrible boss who doesn't care about the health of my employees."
"Alright, Young Mr. Han!"

Seeking Elysium
Elysium Ling is a returnee. She’s been to an alternate world, coerced into fighting their wars, and somehow returned alive. Now, 13 years later, she finds herself again taken to a foreign world – this time, by her own choice. Not the same world that she returned from, but a foreign world nonetheless. There, struggling in an unknown world, utterly alone, she has a chance encounter with a young lady with a lovely voice. An encounter which would spark a chain of events that would irrevocably shape the world around them. That young lady’s name is Rosalind. This is her story. Disclaimer/Trigger Warnings (Please Read!) THIS WORK WILL MOST LIKELY CONTAIN BOTH HOMOSEXUAL AND INCESTUOUS UNDERTONES. IT WILL ALSO HAVE OCCASIONAL DESCRIPTIONS OF GORE THAT CAN GET REASONABLY GRAPHIC. PLEASE DO NOT READ THIS IF YOU ARE UNDER THE LEGAL AGE IN YOUR COUNTRY TO CONSUME SUCH CONTENT AS MENTIONED ABOVE, OR IF YOU ARE TRIGGERED BY HOMOSEXUALITY, GORE OR INCEST. Notes on Relation to Lily Ex Machina While this story is intended to be a sequel to my first work, Lily Ex Machina (LxM), I will be writing it in a manner that does not require readers to have read LxM to understand it. While having read LxM will likely enhance your enjoyment of this work(I hope), I am intending for this story to be able to stand on its own legs. As such, certain worldbuilding elements that I have expanded upon in LxM will likely be repeated in Seeking Elysium(SEly). As such, for newcomers, it should not be an issue to follow this story without prior knowledge of LxM. On the other hand, for my returning readers, I do beg your forgiveness for forcing you to read through stuff you already know. I’ll do my best to try and make it interesting, but no guarantees of success, I’m afraid. On the other hand, if you’re a newcomer to this series and enjoy SEly, I do hope you’ll take the time to read Lily Ex Machina as well, if only to get more information of the backstories of some characters. Update Schedule I will only post completed volumes on RRL; if you would like to follow the story while it is ongoing, you may do so at my website. I update twice a week, on Wednesdays and Sundays. Supporters on my Patreon get access to chapters a day earlier.
