"Why do you keep repeating that Qiao Xin already has a husband as if I don't deserve to approach Qiao Xin," Xuan Cheng annoyed. He then sat inside the tent, his jaw clenched as if he was annoyed at being kept from getting any closer to Qiao Xin.
"Hey, isn't that obvious, Qiao Xin has a husband and you approach her all the time. Isn't that very funny? it's as if all this you're doing isn't a very big thing. You're trying to seduce someone's wife, Cheng, you're trying to win her heart. What's not wrong with all of this? You are my most moral friend and understand all the rules the most, but why are you acting like this now? do you have no shame at all? Or is your shame completely gone? I never even understood what happened to you, Cheng. Have you gone crazy after what you did to Xiao Long back then? So you're addicted to snatching a woman who belongs to someone else?" Li Xuan said then. Xuan Cheng seemed to be grinning, and then he took a deep breath.
"Is everything you said enough? Or do you want to say even more now? in your eyes, I was never good, and will never be good since that problem right? do you think the only good one is Xiao Long? Do you think that the only victim is Xiao Long?" Xuan Cheng looked at Li Xuan with an annoyed look, making Li Xuan somewhat confused. How can Xuan Cheng be angry now? Clearly, according to Li Xuan, now Xuan Cheng is wrong for wanting to snatch Qiao Xin, Xiao Long's wife. Whatever the reason for the marriage but the two already loved each other. That was what Li Xuan knew. "I just want to save Qiao Xin, I love her and I don't want Qiao Xin to fall into the hands of the wrong man, a man who will not make her happy, and a man who will hurt her. So what if he already has a husband? What's the husband for if the goddamn figure is not worthy to be a husband? even I can be a much better husband than anyone even than her current husband, you know!"
Li Xuan seemed to shake his head. Yes, it was apparent now that Xuan Cheng found out that Qiao Xin's husband was Xiao Long, and his second marriage was a mere contract marriage. That's why Xuan Cheng tried his best to separate the two because he thought that there was no love between the two.
"Please stop, Cheng!" said Li Xuan, just as Xuan Cheng was about to go out, but he immediately shut himself up, looking at Li Xuan with the same look, yes that annoyed look. "You took away Xiao Long's lover before, are you going to do it again this time? just because you think if marriage is just a contract marriage then you are doing all this? they both love each other, Cheng, they—"
"Do you think Xiao Long has that heart? are you blind and can't hear how rude he is to Qiao Xin? The marriage is only a contract marriage, and I will never believe all your bullshit. yes, support, and continue to be with your best friend. Isn't Xiao Long the only friend you've always been proud of?"
Xuan Cheng immediately left, causing Li Xuan to rub his face violently. He didn't expect the problem even to spread this far. Li Xuan never thought that Xuan Cheng would have such annoyance with him all this time. Whereas all this time Li Xuan had always been proud of Xuan Cheng too, how proud he was to have such a friendly, kind friend like Xuan Cheng, who never got angry and rarely made a mistake. Many say that his two best friends are like devils and angels. The devil has always been a nickname for Xiao Long, and the angel has always been a nickname for Xuan Cheng. Li Xuan, who was between them, always boasted of his two best friends, even though the two of them differed in principle too often or were almost incompatible. However, it never crossed Li Xuan's mind to be biased. According to Li Xuan, who should be blamed for Li Xuan's principle, he never expected that his affection for Xuan Cheng would actually be insignificant and even almost unappreciated like this just because Li Xuan kept reminding Xuan Cheng. Even though Li Xuan's intention was only so that Xuan Cheng wouldn't make the same mistake, that would only make things worse.
"Oh my God, I really could go crazy!" Li Xuan was annoyed with himself.
Meanwhile, Tao and Mei were seen sitting together in Tao's tent. How can I not? Qiao Xin's tent is now there with Xiao Long.
Mei seemed to be sitting while hugging her knees, and then she took a deep breath many times. How could she not? Inside this tent, there was a Tao who had even taken a sleeping position even as if he didn't care at all if Mei was here.
"Didn't you think of something?" Mei said later because silence wasn't what Mei liked at all. She would become timider and timider and would also feel that she would be awkward with Tao if she just kept quiet like an idiot.
"What to think? I thought I was sleepy and should sleep," Tao replied. Mei seemed to take a deep breath, looking at Tao with a highly annoyed look on her face. Even in this position, Tao discusses a matter that makes no sense, namely that he is sleepy and wants to sleep. Doesn't Tao feel very awkward being in the same tent with a woman? How could Tao be this relaxed now?
"What I mean is, what are Qiao Xin and Mr. Han doing now in that tent? the two of them in the tent and on a night like this, cold, and also calming."
"Of course sleep, what else? They must be sleepy because they have been tired all day with all the activities."
"Are you crazy!" upset Mei then. Tao immediately looked at Mei with a confused look, and he didn't think why Mei could be so angry with him now?
"Why are you mad at me? What have I done? I'm just answering the question according to what you asked."
"Have you never had a lover before?" asked Mei, looking even more annoyed than before. Then she took a deep breath. Dan looked at Tao again with a look that was even more annoyed than before. "Oh, I know. let alone have a lover, I think you've never been in a relationship at all. that's why you don't understand about sentimental matters like this."
"You really are weird. Why are you busy thinking about Young Mr. Han's matter with Young Lady Han? When in reality you are here and have a life of your own. If sleepy, go to sleep early. You'll never really understand what's going on. You think Young Lady Han will only make you sleepy, tired yourself. Though clearly, you are not part of their love story. You really are wasting your time thinking about other people's problems."
"You …."
Mei did not expect that all of this would happen. How could she meet such an unpleasant human-like Tao? Because she was so upset that Mei finally fell asleep, with her back to Tao, the two of them turned their backs on each other. And finally, that night, all of them were having their inner polemic. Only Qiao Xin's tent seemed calm, as Qiao Xin was fast asleep and holding hands with Xiao Long. Yes, just the two of them.
The following day, Xuan Cheng was already sitting sweetly in front of the tent, who didn't even extinguish last night's fire, so he immediately boiled water to brew coffee. He didn't sleep all night because the cold weather was annoying. It's just that if he went into the tent, he would have to meet Li Xuan again, which would make him feel even more annoyed.
Li Xuan, who had just come out, seemed to stop when he saw Xuan Cheng already sitting in front of the tent. He was at a loss as to what to do, what to behave, and to say what he was doing now.
"Oh, Cheng, are you awake? Where did you sleep last night? I waited for you all night but you didn't come back. Isn't it cold outside?" Li Xuan asked. He was trying his best to act casual so that his friends wouldn't be strained and destroyed in such a terrible way.
Xuan Cheng smiled wryly, and he didn't even expect Li Xuan to be so good at acting. Yes, it was always like this. If there were a problem, Li Xuan would think and pretend that everything was fine and nothing had happened either. It was Li Xuan, who sometimes irritated Xuan Cheng. No matter how hard he tries to be the unifier between Xiao Long and Xuan Cheng, Li Xuan will never be able to do it. Xuan Cheng would still go his way. That was who he was, no matter what.. Maybe the others Xuan Cheng would relent, but as for Qiao Xin's case, she would never give in for any reason whatsoever because Xuan Cheng would never give up on it.
