Chapter 85 - ~Confession~
This morning, Xiao Long had already left for work early. Meanwhile, Qiao Xin chose to stay at home. How could she not? She had given up on the rules made by Xiao Long regarding the matter of going to and coming home from work to be picked up by Tao. However, now both Li Xuan and Xuan Cheng, along with Mei, knew that Tao was her cousin. One thing that made Qiao Xin seem to think that if everything were fine, no one would suspect that Tao would come and pick her up from work, even with a car from Xiao Long. How not, everyone knows who Tao is. Even Tao had many privileges during her time working with Xiao Long.
"Young Lady Han, how was your morning today? being delivered with me like this is it alright?" Tao asked then.
Qiao Xin seemed to know what Tao meant if this was a trick of her pretending not to have a husband and hiding her relationship with Xiao Long.
Qiao Xin seemed to snort, and then she turned her face away. Qiao Xin didn't know what to do to prevent her relationship with Xiao Long from being damaged like this. At least, Qiao Xin wanted to be friends with Xiao Long during their marriage, as long as they became husband and wife, even if it was just a contract. However, Xiao Long and Qiao Xin's way of thinking about this contract marriage was different. If Qiao Xin thought this contract marriage was not a real marriage and would end any time when Xiao Chuan died, but to Xiao Long, this marriage was different. Xiao Long believed in this marriage as if she confirmed that the two were married for love. Qiao Xin had no idea how there was a man like Xiao Long? She didn't understand at all what she should do now. Even her intention to take off her wedding ring at the office now seemed to have wavered just because of Xiao Long's words yesterday.
"Do you think this is wrong?" Qiao Xin asked in the end. Tao looked at Qiao Xin, who lowered her head, holding the wedding ring removed and placed on her ring finger.
"About why Young Mr. Han is angry and about Young Lady Han's lies?" guess Tao. Qiao Xin looked silent, and she knew that Tao knew a lot about this. Because after all, the most frequent and closest to Xiao Long is Tao. Although Xiao Long still has another best friend named Li Xuan. "Young Lady Han, I don't feel there is anything wrong with Young Mr. Han's anger at all. Because the truth is when Young Mr. Han does something he takes it very seriously. Even though it was just a contract marriage that Young Lady Han might consider to be completely unimportant. Young Mr. Han has always been like that, earnest and serious. Maybe right now your marriage is just black and white, a contract marriage that will end at any time when Lord Han dies. But in Young Mr. Han's eyes, your marriage is sacred and legal. Young Mr. Han had also been very proud of the marriage bond, he was very serious about this. That's why many times Mr. Han told him to marry Young Mr. Han always refused because he wanted to find the best and perfect figure, for Young Mr. Han in the past, he only wanted to get married once in his life, and he would keep his marriage alive. However, he had to break his principles because of Mr. Han and was contractually married to Young Lady Han. It seems that Young Lady Han doesn't know about Young Mr. Han's thoughts, who will consider this marriage to be a real marriage, and Young Mr. Han even stays away from all the women who are close to him is decided very firmly, Young Mr. Han is currently also keeping his distance with anyone, and he was not close to any woman other than Young Lady Han. Even until this moment, wherever Young Mr. Han went, he never took off his wedding ring, Young Mr. Han always proudly said that he was married. To Young Mr. Han perhaps, when it was time for Young Mr. and Young Lady Han to separate, it might be considered a husband and wife divorce in general. That's probably what Young Mr. Han has thought all along, so I hope Young Lady Han doesn't make things too difficult for Young Mr. Han. I don't blame Young Lady Han at all for wanting to hide Young Lady Han's marriage to Young Mr. Han. But it's best to do so more carefully so that Young Mr. Han doesn't feel hurt. Isn't a marriage that isn't even a contract marriage even though there are still divorced ones? So what's wrong with your contract marriage? If indeed Young Lady Han was afraid of being a widow, rest assured Young Mr. Han would never make a fuss about it at all. Young Mr. Han has promised you not to make things difficult for you, rest assured that Young Mr. Han will never make things difficult for you."
Qiao Xin was silent again, and she didn't expect Xiao Long's thoughts to go that far. For then, Qiao Xin lowered her face until the car she was traveling in stopped right in front of Weijing Group.
After that, Qiao Xin got out of the car and bowed to greet Tao. Making Mei, who had just arrived from the company, immediately took her hand perfectly.
"Why is your face bent like that so early in the morning, Qiao Xin? Are you having a problem? Come on, an employee named Qiao Xin has the opportunity to sit in Mr. Han's car, isn't that a blessing? Then why are you bending your face like that? Isn't being Big Brother Tao's cousin a lot of fun?"
Qiao Xin looked at Mei, and the guilt came back perfectly. She was so confused about what to do now, tell the truth or keep quiet until it was all over? At least, Qiao Xin wanted to do something that seemed to make Xiao Long wish to talk to her. This didn't mean that Qiao Xin felt sad when Xiao Long-lived in her, but rather that Qiao Xin felt guilty for Xiao Long.
"Mei, can we stop by for some hot pot before heading home and have a few drinks? I want to talk to you about a few things," Qiao Xin decided in the end. "But the hot pot that is near the company, how about it? You certainly still remember the incident where we were almost kidnapped, right? So finding a safe place is what we have to do because after all, I don't want to make Big Brother Tao anxious."
Mei seemed to pull an eyebrow, and then she nodded too. Qiao Xin's serious face really couldn't be ignored, and even Qiao Xin now felt very serious. Mei finally shook as well, and then she hugged Qiao Xin even tighter,
"Qiao Xin, no matter what your problem is, it doesn't matter that you keep it and don't want to share it yet. I'm here to be your best friend no matter what happens now, so stop burdening yourself. I just want you to stay true to yourself, not be moody like this. I don't want you to be this gloomy, Qiao Xin. Whatever your problem, you must realize one thing that if you always have me by your side."
Qiao Xin seemed to smile, and then she took a deep breath. Will he tell Mei the truth about all of this? in reality, Qiao Xin wasn't very good at telling stories. She was too fond of keeping things to herself.
"Mei, do you think lying is wrong?"
"Sure, why are you still asking about such a thing, Qiao Xin?"
The two of them now walked into the office while having a little chat together. Open each other's hearts, even if it's little by little.
"If you lie because you don't want something to be revealed, is that wrong too?" Qiao Xin stopped in her tracks, causing Mei to immediately turn her head to look at Qiao Xin with a look of extreme curiosity. "I've made a deal with someone, and I don't want everyone to know about it. however, he was furious when I tried to lie and lied for my own good as well as his own. But it seems like he and I think are completely different, I don't understand this at all."
"Wait," Mei looked at Qiao Xin carefully, making Qiao Xin look at her best friend as well. it seemed that Qiao Xin had said so much now that it made her best friend curious. "Is this what you're talking about Big Brother Tao who is your cousin or about the man who helped us when we were about to be kidnapped that time?" asked Mei with a questioning look.
Qiao Xin was silent, and she didn't expect that Mei would be so observant. How could Mei know if Tao and the person who helped her that night were different people?
"I-"
"You don't need many excuses, Qiao Xin. I knew very clearly that Big Brother Tao and the guy wearing the helmet were different, their postures were very different, and Big Brother Tao didn't hurt at all on the palm of his hand. Either I don't know why you're hiding this or lying if Big Brother Tao saved us, but I do think that the problem you're having has something to do with that guy wearing the helmet right?" guess Mei.
Qiao Xin instantly fell silent, and then she lowered her face. She nodded her head weakly, and then she hugged Mei's body tightly.
"I'm really crazy because of him, I don't know what to do so he doesn't get mad at me, Mei."
