Chapter 36 - Married {2}

"There are so many questions I want to ask you, Qiao," Qiao Xin's mother seemed to be sitting alone with her daughter. Then Mother Qiao Xin looked at her daughter, who was looking down on her face.

While Qiao Xin looked up again, looking at Xiao Long and An Xin seemed to be having a lot of fun together. A sibling relationship that has been established so naturally. Qiao Xin seemed to smile bitterly every time she remembered that all this happiness was fake. This marriage was a drama marriage, a contract marriage that would never result in anything. Yes, after Xiao Long's parents came home, Xiao Long didn't go home. Because An Xin still wants to play with Xiao Long, at the urging of Qiao Xin and An Xin's mother, Xiao Long decides to stay the night.

"Wasn't your lover called Jia Min back then? How come now your lover is called Xiao Long, Han Xiao Long. Even now you two are getting married, and what I just found out is that they are a very rich family. Their car I'm sure if the price is not cheap, "repeated Qiao Xin's mother.

Qiao Xin seemed to be smiling, and she was trying to put on the cutest smile ever. How could she not? She was not allowed to put on a very terrible look, let alone a sad face because it would let her mother know about a truth that she kept from her parents.

"Mother, I'm sorry if I didn't tell you about my relationship with Jia Min. It's just that we've been apart for a long time. I know that long-term relationships don't always end well, and I think what you say is true. Jia Min, is not a good man for me, Mother. He really wasn't good enough, so in the end we decided to split up. We decided to part ways on good terms, Mother. So, you don't have to worry about anything," Qiao Xin explained. It was nothing, and it was just that Qiao Xin was sure that her mother would ask a lot of questions about Jia Min. How they separated, and how the two are now. Qiao Xin didn't want that, and she didn't want that kind of question to invite her heart and make her heartache again. She had enough pain and disappointment because of Jia Min, and Qiao Xin didn't want to feel her pain anymore.

"Then with Xiao Long? With your long-standing relationship, the cage is in the middle of the road with Jia Min. And now that you've decided to marry Xiao Long, is that really your decision with a well-thought-out basis? I mean, I don't want you to accept Xiao Long's heart and decide to marry Xiao Long just as a form of escape. Qiao, you know that's not a good thing, right? Because the truth is, heart problems cannot be played with, let alone as an escape. The heart is the most honest place of all the lies we try to show that we are okay. But if our hearts are not honest, what else can be maintained for a relationship? Nothing at all, other than we will feel bored until finally we will explode and make everything will be worse than before. That's why I always remind you. It's not that Mom doesn't like Xiao Long, not at all. Even if I could choose, I prefer Xiao Long, and why didn't you meet Xiao Long earlier than Jia Min. At least Xiao Long is very brave, Xiao Long dared to propose to you and meet your family. As for Jia Min? Even when you two separated, Jia Min didn't appear in Mother's face at all. I only saw it from a photo that you often send to Mom. Isn't it very clear who is good and who is not? However, Mother also doesn't want Xiao Long to get hurt. If in fact in your heart you still have one name. Which ultimately disappointed Xiao Long. I don't want that to happen, Qiao. And you can also see for yourself, how close Xiao Long is to An Xin. That little sister of yours, it's so hard to get close to someone, and for Xiao Long to be that close, it means that Xiao Long is a really good and sincere person. I hope that you don't disappoint and waste a sincere person like Xiao Long. Do you understand what Mother has said?"

Sincerely, good people?

Was Xiao Long that kind of person? Qiao Xin seemed to smile wryly as her mother praised Xiao Long so unequivocally. If only Qiao Xin's mother knew that Xiao Long was a cunning person who only cared about his grandfather's problems. Or even if only her mother knew that Xiao Long was the meanest man ever? Would her mother say the same thing? Qiao Xin was sure that her mother would be disappointed if she found out who the real Xiao Long was. Even sacred matters such as marriage, Xiao Long can make a business field. An inappropriate thing for a well-spoken, sincere person to do.

Qiao Xin smiled bitterly again. Why should she protest? Why should she not be willing? Isn't this the agreement of both parties? Qiao Xin should be aware of that. And she must not continue to blame Xiao Long herself. Because in this matter, without her approval, even Xiao Long would never be able to do anything.

"What you said is true, I will remember all your messages. I will take good care of Xiao Long. Perhaps in everyone's eyes, Xiao Long was an arrogant figure. But actually he is a gentle and loving person," Qiao Xin replied. Well, at least that's what Qiao Xin saw when she was with his grandfather. And Qiao Xin would continue to portray Xiao Long like that figure in front of her family.

Meanwhile, Uncle Qiao Xin, who overheard Qiao Xin's conversation with her mother, couldn't help but smile bitterly; Uncle Qiao Xin couldn't imagine how devastated her mother would be to know the truth. A reality that would surely make Qiao Xin's mother furious.
