Chapter 28 - ~Bad Prayer~

All the way home, the atmosphere became awkward. Xiao Long could only glance at Qiao Xin out of the corner of his eye, while Qiao Xin chose to look away from the window.

Xiao Long had no idea that things would turn out like this. Seeing a chatty woman suddenly silent and just resting her chin on her tears wasn't right at all now.

"About that kiss,"

"I know, you don't need to talk about it," Qiao Xin cut in. She fell silent again, causing Xiao Long to be confused. Feeling that the atmosphere was getting more and more awkward, he chose to play some music on the radio. The radio channel stupidly played melancholy music that made Qiao Xin cry even more. Xiao Long cursed himself, and this was a big mistake. He should have to whistle or sing to himself without having to play music or anything. Then he glanced at Qiao Xin again, who had begun to master herself. "Do you have alcohol?" Qiao Xin asked in the end. Xiao Long smiled wryly.

"You just say what you need, I'll definitely have it,"

"Then accompany me to drink later,"

And the car was going so fast that Xiao Long started to slow down the vehicle on a high-rise building, and the building was very grand and extensive. Qiao Xin looked at it probably in amazement. But because her heart was still in a dilemma, even shock couldn't show it at all.

"Let's go out," said Xiao Long, after the two of them were in the basement of the apartment.

The two of them decided to go downstairs. Qiao Xin took her box and started to follow Xiao Long's steps. After the two got into the elevator, Xiao Long glanced back at Qiao Xin.

"Thank you," Qiao Xin said in the end. Her face didn't look all right. Her eyes were puffy, the tip of her nose was red. Qiao Xin seemed to have her head lowered, and even she didn't seem to dare to look at Xiao Long at all. "Because you saved my pride through that kiss," she continued. Xiao Long seemed to smile wryly.

"I just don't want this ugly woman beside me to lose her pride just because of a useless jerk. Can you see how stupid you were? You even cry over the man who has done evil to you? You're still crying over the man who treated you like an animal. Are you sane? Or do you have acute madness? How can you still love a man who has clearly not only hurt you, but has betrayed you. You really are the dumbest woman in the world!"

"Can you not judge me now?" said Qiao Xin, who was now looking at Xiao Long with an annoyed expression on her face. Xiao Long immediately fell silent, and then he nodded his head. Xiao Long chose to look at the elevator door that never opened. "Yes, I admit that I am the stupidest woman in the world. I have loved the wrong man. I've fallen in love with the wrong man. At first, I met him, he is a very sweet man. Nice man, polite and full of responsibility. I never thought, if the reality is different. Everything he showed me was just a trick to get me trapped in his arms. However, every day, every day of my life I always hope if maybe he will change, if maybe he will change. Am I wrong with my expectations of him? I'm not like you, Young Mr. Han, who doesn't care about love or anything else. For me, love is a very sacred and sacred bond, which if possible should be maintained even to death. Which must be fought to the last drop of blood, which must be held deeply until the end of this breath. Since childhood, I always dreamed, if I would fall in love at first sight, the only love I knew and had. Until finally I will marry the man I love and we will grow old together. That is my dream, so high on love I always hope like that. That's what made me stick with that guy, because I only want to hold love once, no matter how much it hurts, no matter how painful it is. But in fact, I had lost. I have lost to myself. I have lost with my own patience. And now that I've given up, I've become a complete, pointless loser."

Xiao Long was silent again, no matter what he said. What Qiao Xin said was true. He was never in love. That's why he always looked down on anything that had to do with feelings and hearts. However, Xiao Long himself did not want to blame for what happened Qiao Xin. He didn't want to care about what happened to Qiao Xin.

"What about you, Qiqi? Does breaking up make your world fall apart? Would you die if you broke up with a jerk like him? The thing is, you'll die if you don't eat. That's the truth, and I'm sure that someday when you fall in love with another man again, you'll laugh at yourself. You'll laugh at how stupid you are to fall in love with a man who doesn't deserve to be loved. What's so great about this guy anyway? He is not very handsome, not rich, and he is also a gambler with cheaters. There doesn't seem to be a single side of him to be proud of or to love. Or maybe, because you are a trash woman, that's why you fell in love with a trash man too. Because what I know is, mate is a reflection of us. So good or bad our partner depends on our own behavior. Now look at you, you really represent what people say."

"What?" annoyed Qiao Xin. She immediately looked at Xiao Long, who kept cursing at her without any pity. "You're calling me if my soul mate is a reflection of me, and because I'm a bad woman then my soul mate is a bad man? Oh, yes I hope that your future soul mate is a reflection of you too, Young Mr. Han. I pray that you have a soul mate who will really make you dizzy, will irritate you, and will make you fall in love until you can't live without her, and when all that has happened, I hope you won't feel the betrayal of what happened. I feel now."
