Chapter 38 - Married {4}

"Sorry, what did you just say?" Xiao Long asked. Xiao Long seemed to fold his arms across his chest, and then he looked at Qiao Xin with a mocking look on his face. "Do you really think that in my eyes you are a woman? Even in my eyes you are nothing more than trash. So do you think I who have viewed you as trash would treat you as a woman? Even if I think of you as a woman, I also have no passion for a woman like you. Are you attractive? Not at all. Your clothes are shabby, your body isn't sexy either, so in what way should I do something weird to you, Qiqi? So shut up, and sleep quickly, never dreaming in broad daylight. You don't make me want to laugh, because I don't care about you at all either. Because after all, when we are married later, in my eyes you are a little trash in the corner of the room. Yeah, you're not worth that much."

Qiao Xin's eyes were glazed over, and she didn't expect Xiao Long to say such hurtful things. Qiao Xin took a deep breath, then turned her face away. What Xiao Long said was true. Qiao Xin seemed to be overconfident in thinking things over. Xiao Long was a rich man who was used to meeting and dealing with women far more attractive than him. So, what Xiao Long said was true. Then why should Qiao Xin feel hurt? Was it because Qiao Xin felt that her pride as a woman was trampled on Xiao Long's words?

Qiao Xin did not answer Xiao Long's words, and she immediately pushed Xiao Long until the man stepped back, climbed on the bed, pulled the blanket, and tilted her body.

Meanwhile, Xiao Long seemed to be silent, and he felt that what he had said was a bit too much. Xiao Long knew that he hated Qiao Xin so much, but Xiao Long shouldn't have said such a harsh word since Qiao Xin had agreed to his grandfather's request. Moreover, Xiao Long didn't lose anything from this marriage, Qiao Xin only asked for a small amount of money, and Qiao Xin didn't want her family name changed. She didn't want to be included in Xiao Long's family register. Isn't that very good? Even though all the women out there are so eager to do that, bearing the Han family name can be taken advantage of, especially if the public knows that they are the Madam of the Han family. But Qiao Xian didn't want to do it, although Xiao Long was still guessing what Qiao Xin was trying to plan, at least up to this point, he still thought that Qiao Xin still had a conscience. Especially after Xiao Long came to this house, the Qiao Xin family's house, meeting the Qiao Xin family made Xiao Long know more things, making Xiao Long learn more and more things. About the meaning of a family, about the meaning of a warm family, the meaning of simplicity, and the meaning of sincere happiness, all of which he can feel without spending a lot of money. Yes, Xiao Long just found out that even a low-income family like Qiao Xin's family can feel happy, and the extraordinary peace, happiness, and genuine affection that made Xiao Long touched too. That doesn't mean that Xiao Long's family isn't a family that tends to act casually even though they are rich. His family is not much different from Qiao Xin's family. It's just that he's been used to something called luxury, and that's what succeeded in shaping Xiao Long's mindset of happiness will have if he has a lot of money.

"Qiqi, I'm sorry for going a little too far, I didn't mean to insult you or hurt your feelings. You know, I just wanted to make it clear that I can't possibly touch you and you don't have to be afraid of me. Accusing me of being a pervert also hurts your feelings. So I hope from now on we can take care of each other's hearts. I respect your feelings, and you should respect my feelings too. So how, do you agree with that?" said Xiao Long in the end. He slowly walked closer to the bed, saw Qiao Xin, sleeping curled up, and didn't move much. Her chest seemed to move so gently, and her breathing seemed so irregular. When Xiao Long saw Qiao Xin's face, he chuckled, yes Qiao Xin seems to have fallen asleep, even though Xiao Long had already taken all his guts to humble himself and apologized to Qiao Xin. But how could she fall asleep and not hear his long and very expensive confession?

Expensive? Of course, yes, even Xiao Long never once apologized to anyone, even though he was in a state of hurting people's feelings though. One could even say, apologizing to Qiao Xin was his first apology to an outsider other than his family.

"Tsk! Damn it! How could she fall asleep? Doesn't she know that I should lower my self-respect, and muster up my guts just to apologize to her? How dare she even fall asleep so annoyingly. You rotten trash!" Xiao Long grumbled. He immediately decided to get on the bed and then sleep beside Qiao Xin. Even though Xiao Long's two long legs couldn't be straightened and had to be bent, Xiao Long didn't seem to be able to protest in any way. What can he do? Not at all, because here the bed is the only place that who can use to sleep.

The next morning, Xiao Long seemed to have sat on the Liu family's living room chair. Xiao Long continued to stretch his body because he couldn't sleep well last night. Even his body felt achy all over, and Xiao Long glanced at Qiao Xin, who just came out of the room, wearing a cream-colored T-shirt with messy hair. Xiao Long seemed to take a deep breath, and he couldn't imagine how he could live with a dirty woman like Qiao Xin, who woke up not showering or washing her face, instead confidently walking out of the room scratching her head and smelling the scratch marks. Xiao Long turned his head away, even though he had already showered and was already preparing to go home, seeing Qiao Xin like that seemed like it would be a long time coming home.

"Aren't you taking a shower? You know what time it is? I have a lot of meetings and reviews of several ongoing projects, I also have to review W Corporation again to make sure the small company's work is correct or not. Do you know the distance between your house and my company?" annoyed Xiao Long.

Qiao Xin, who was still irritated last night, just sighed as she turned her head away, ignoring Xiao Long, who was already grumbling like an annoying Grandpa.

"Qiqi, did you hear what I said?" irritated Xiao Long, he walked over to Qiao Xin, but the woman spontaneously turned around. The two bodies collided very real, and Xiao Long swiftly caught Qiao Xin's body which was about to fall. The two's eyes met for a moment, deep gazes that were hard to decipher, and then Qiao Xin pushed Xiao Long's body, and she moved away from Xiao Long. "You have dirt in your eyes, you filthy woman!" Xiao Long protested. There is none at all; it's just that Xiao Long doesn't want to be caught looking at Qiao Xin with a look that Xiao Long himself might think is the strangest look of all time.

Qiao Xin was silent again, she immediately checked her eyes, but there wasn't any dirt there. Qiao Xin was about to leave but was held back by Xiao Long.

"Are you dumbt? I was talking to you earlier but you just kept quiet!" annoyed Xiao Long.

"Do you think the trash in the corner of your room can talk and answer your questions?"

Xiao Long was silent again, and it seemed that Qiao Xin was angry right now. Xiao Long never expected that Qiao Xin would take heart for whatever she said last night.

"You're mad?" asked Xiao Long in the end.

"If you want to go home, go home. I didn't stop you, and I didn't tell you to come home with me either. I want to go home alone, don't you understand about that?"

"Then what if your mother sees us not getting back together? Your mother will definitely be suspicious and ask all kinds of questions."

"I can take care of it." Qiao Xin looked at Xiao Long with that annoyed expression on her face, then she sat on the dining chair and took some of the food already served on the table. "I can tell you have an important meeting, so you go home first. And I still miss Mom that's why I'm coming home this afternoon. So please go home, I'm not telling you to linger here, Young Master Han,"

Xiao Long, who was getting more and more irritated by Qiao Xin's annoying behavior, also sat down, then took the oranges on the table.

"You are crazy!"

"In the morning, why do you sound like you keep arguing? Is there a problem?" Qiao Xin's mother also came, carrying a large bowl of soup. Xiao Long, who saw that quickly helped his mother-in-law, then brought the soup and placed it on the table. "Thank you Xiao, you really are the ideal son-in-law," said Qiao Xin's mother.

Hearing her mother continue to praise Xiao Long, Qiao Xin rolled her eyes in embarrassment. Licking is Xiao Long's smartest job.
