515 Robber’s Logic
However, Qiao An’s embrace was really a test of Xing Chen’s self-control. “Qiao An, I can’t sleep like this.”
Qiao An asked him shyly, “Brother Xing Chen, do you want it?”
Xing Chen was stunned. Qiao An’s forthrightness made him resist inexplicably. He recalled Xing Xiaoya’s words. She had said that girls like Qiao An were very promiscuous. These words suited the situation at this moment.
“Qiao An.” He took her restless little hand away and told her very seriously, “I don’t want to do this if it’s not for the sake of marriage.”
He hoped Qiao An would face up to love and marriage not only as enjoyment but also as responsibility and duty.
He thought Qiao An would be more or less intimidated by the word marriage. Instead, she hugged him tighter. “Then let’s get married.”
Anyway, it had always been Xiaoran’s regret that they did not hold a wedding the first time they got married. Now, she would make it up to him.
Xing Chen was flattered. He stared blankly at Qiao An. “Are you really willing to marry me?”
Qiao An opened her big, gem-like eyes. “Yes. I want to be with you for the rest of my life and never be apart,” she said.
Xing Chen’s frozen heart melted.
“Qiao An!” He suddenly hugged and kissed her.
At that time, he felt he could throw away all the so-called red tape. If not for the simple environment here and Xing Xiaoya, he really wanted her at all costs.
When Xing Xiaoya woke up, she saw the two of them on the bed. Qiao An was lying in Xing Chen’s arms, sleeping soundly.
Xing Xiaoya’s eyes turned red with jealousy. She trembled and roared at Qiao An, “Ah, Qiao An, Brother Xing Chen, how can you sleep together?”
Qiao An, who was sound asleep, trembled.
Xing Chen glanced at Xing Xiaoya bitterly and said, “Xiaoya, don’t scare Qiao An.”
Xing Xiaoya wailed, ” Now that you’re with her, you don’t want me anymore. Brother Xing Chen, how can you not want me? You promised my father that you would take care of me for the rest of my life.”
She covered her face and ran out crying.
Qiao An had been in a daze, but now she woke up.
Xing Chen looked at her, then glanced uneasily out the window. He was in a difficult position.
Qiao An said, “Brother Xing Chen, never mind me. I don’t think she’s in the right mood. Comfort her first. Don’t let her do anything stupid.”
Xing Chen put on his clothes and chased after Xing Xiaoya.
Qiao An got out of bed after him. She circled the cabin, getting to know the surrounding terrain and the herb garden beside it.
She had also started to take care of the company in the past few years and knew a lot of herbs. Therefore, she especially liked the herbs planted by Xing Chen. She learned from Xing Chen and removed the weeds one by one.
When Xing Chen returned, he saw Qiao An among the herbs from afar. When he approached, he saw Qiao An helping him weed. Her serious look looked especially attractive.
Xing Chen’s lips couldn’t help but curl up.
“Qiao An.” He walked over.
Qiao An beamed when she saw him.
Xing Chen walked up to her and handed her the breakfast he was carrying. “This is the rice cake made by Auntie Wang at the village entrance. Try it.”
Qiao An took it and took a bite. The fragrance of the wormwood lingered. “Yes, it’s delicious.”
She put the cake into Xing Chen’s mouth. “Try it too.”
Xing Chen took a bite and pushed it toward her.
Satisfied, Qiao An took the food to the side and ate with relish.
Xing Chen looked at her from afar and felt that such a beautiful girl was not delicate or pretentious at all. She would eat whatever she was given. This girl was really the best in the world.
Qiao An finished and licked the leftovers from the leaves. Xing Chen couldn’t help but smile when he saw her like this. “Little glutton.”
Realizing that she might not have eaten her fill, Xing Chen walked up to her and took her hand. “I’ll take you to find some wild fruits to eat.”
Qiao An was happy. “Sure.”
He led Qiao An along the path behind the mountain and picked a lot of fiery red thorn bubbles and wild mulberry. After Qiao An ate the mulberry, her mouth darkened and so did parts of her chin.
Xing Chen couldn’t help but smile when he saw her face.
Sensing something wrong, Qiao An wiped her face hard. “What’s on my face?”
“Nothing,” Xing Chen lied to her.
She was very full. In the end, she hugged him in satisfaction and wheedled. “Brother Xing Chen, I don’t want to go back to the big city anymore. Why don’t I stay here and accompany you for the rest of my life?”
Xing Chen stroked her seaweed-like hair. “Qiao An, I’m naturally happy if you’re willing to accompany me,” he said wistfully. “But I want you to live happily. So go wherever you like.”
As for him, he could follow her.
He didn’t have such a traditional mindset. He didn’t want a girl to marry him and do as he pleased.
Qiao An murmured, “Brother Xing Chen, but I only want you to be happy. Because if you’re happy, I’m happy.”
Xing Chen was very flattered. Apart from being pleasantly surprised, he also sighed. Even though Qiao An was a weak girl with the title of a domineering female CEO, she was a little thing who needed protection and comfort in his opinion.
She inspired all his protectiveness.
“An’an.” He hugged her tightly.
Qiao An wrapped her arms around his neck and handed him her kiss.
They kissed with abandonment.
Until a sharp voice sounded. “Xing Chen, how can you abandon someone after playing with her feelings?”
Xing Chen and Qiao An opened their eyes and saw a man clenching his fists in front of them. Qiao An’s first reaction was to rush in front of Xing Chen and protect him.
“Who are you accusing?”
...
“Xing Chen, he should be marrying Xing Xiaoya.”
“He doesn’t love Xing Xiaoya. He just treats her as his sister.”
“But Xiaoya’s father saved Xing Chen’s life. Xing Chen should take care of Xiao Ya for the rest of his life. He shouldn’t be entangled with a woman other than Xiaoya,” the man said indignantly.
Qiao An was sharp-tongued and eloquent. “You said it yourself. Xiaoya’s father, not Xing Xiaoya, saved Brother Xing Chen. The person Brother Xingchen should be most grateful to is Father Xing. I heard that Brother Xingchen took care of Father Xing personally for the past few years when he was sick. He has returned his favor.”
“But Father Xing entrusted Xiaoya to Xing Chen’s care?”
Qiao An said, “What a joke. This is a robber’s logic. This is the same logic as you marrying a wife. Let me ask you: If you marry a wife, will you give your money to your wife? But are you happy to give your money to your brother-in-law?”
“That… that’s two different things.”
Qiao An said, “Father Xing, not Xing Xiaoya, saved Xing Chen. Brother Xing Chen took care of her out of moral obligation. He is not responsible for her.”
