Chapter 91 - ~One Time That Night~

Tonight, Xiao Long, Qiao Xin, Xuan Cheng, Li Xuan, Tao, and Mei had gathered together at one of the family restaurants not far from the company where they worked. With Qiao Xin sitting beside Xuan Cheng and Xiao Long, the opposite was Mei and Tao. On Xiao Long's right side was Li Xuan. They sat in a circle at an oval table and kept turning.

Xiao Long looked at Qiao Xin with an annoyed look. Now and then, Qiao Long opened his cellphone and deliberately put it on the table, sending Qiao Xin a message, which inevitably made Qiao Xin unlock her cellphone.

"Wife, keep your distance from other men!"

Qiao Xin immediately glanced at Xiao Long, then she snorted. It seemed that everything that happened was not a good thing at all. Qiao Xin also placed her cell phone on the table perfectly, making everyone there see if Xiao Long and Qiao Xin's cell phone was a cellphone for a couple.

"If you two were apart from us for not knowing the origin of Qiao Xin's sister's cell phone, we would definitely think that you two were lovers. Your cellphone is a couple's cellphone, especially in this country and even in other parts of the world your cellphones have not been released at all," Li Xuan said. Xiao Long didn't take it seriously. He just focused on Qiao Xin and continued to sip the wine in his hand. It even felt like Xiao Long wanted to pry out Xuan Cheng's eyes, who kept looking at Qiao Xin. Again, Xiao Long took another sip of his wine.

"Can't you stop?" Qiao Xin and Li Xuan said at the same time as they looked at Xiao Long.

Qiao Xin's face was red, especially when everyone looked at her perfectly. Unlucky! Qiao Xin thought to herself, how could she let go of being too upset to see Xiao Long constantly drinking.

"Sister Qiao Xin, did you know that Xiao Long is not good at drinking wine and gets drunk easily?" Li Xuan asked probingly. Qiao Xin shook her head weakly, glancing at Xiao Long with an annoyed look.

"No, it's just that we haven't even eaten yet, but he's been drinking that much wine. Wasn't he afraid that his stomach would explode from drinking too much wine? Very disturbing," Qiao Xin replied later. Xiao Long drank another glass of wine, then he started to take some of the side dishes on the table, ate them silently, and didn't say anything, making Qiao Xin feel a bit guilty.

"Qiao Xin, eat this, the scallops caught when the scallops are not stressed have a very soft and tender meat texture, you will definitely like it." Xuan Cheng placed the clams on top of Qiao Xin's rice, but Xiao Long quickly took the clams and ate them. Voraciously. They were making Xuan Cheng look at Xiao Long with an annoyed look.

"What are you doing? If you want to eat clams, take it yourself, don't take it from Qiao Xin's bowl!" angry Xuan Cheng.

Xiao Long's jaw hardened, his eyes sharpened looking at Xuan Cheng ideally, he even hated Xuan Cheng once.

Again, Xuan Cheng was about to give the scallop to Qiao Xin then once again, Xiao Long grabbed it and ate it perfectly.

"Xiao Long!" annoyed Xuan Cheng, who is now with Li Xuan's exasperation for his best friend. Yes, Li Xuan knew that Xiao Long was a prankster, but he didn't expect Xiao Long to do this towards Xuan Cheng.

"Do you want to kill her? She is allergic to seafood and you gave her a lot of seafood!" annoyed Xiao Long in the end.

Everyone there seemed to be silent, then everyone there looked at Qiao Xin inquisitively. Unlike Mei, who is now looking at Xiao Long because she didn't expect Xiao Long to know that her best friend is allergic to seafood.

"Is it true that you are allergic to seafood, sister Qiao Xin?" Li Xuan probed with his sharp gaze. "Tao, is it true that your cousin is allergic to seafood?" Li Xuan asked then.

Tao, who knows nothing, can't answer anything. He can only nod stupidly while scratching the back of his neck that doesn't itch.

"I'm not allergic to seafood, what Mr. Han said was just a joke. Of course, because Mr. Han and Brother Cheng might be in trouble, and I happened to be in their midst, I became the victim of their pranks," Qiao Xin said. She seemed to be swallowing her saliva hard and then about to grab the clam, causing Xiao Long to immediately hold Qiao Xin's hand to stop Qiao Xin from exerting herself. Lying again just because Qiao Xin didn't want to say there was a relationship with Xiao Long would certainly make Xiao Long even more upset and sick. Still, it would hurt even more if Qiao Xin did something reckless like this.

"Are you crazy? Do not eat!" snapped Xiao Long. Qiao Xin pushed away Xiao Long's grip then ate all the shells there, looking at Xiao Long with a look of extreme annoyance.

"Qiao Xin," Mei also spoke because she knew very well that her best friend was suffering from severe allergies.

Seeing this, Xiao Long turned his head away, he had even seen how Qiao Xin had to suffer from pain after having dinner together a while ago due to her allergies, and now that woman is just trying to cover up who she is. Xiao Long immediately lifted the bottle of wine on the table and drank it greedily until he finished several bottles of wine to perfection. Was seeing Qiao Xin and Xuan Cheng talking intimately really made Xiao Long's heartburn. He felt irritated and wanted to prove to everyone that Qiao Xin was his wife, but Xiao Long couldn't do it.

Xiao Long finally stood up with a great stagger. When Li Xuan and Tao were about to help Xiao Long reject him, he came out because he wanted to go to the bathroom, making Qiao Xin, who saw that decided to go to the bathroom as well.

"I'll let you go to the bathroom for a moment," said Qiao Xin, not long after Mei left because she wanted to follow where Qiao Xin went after Xiao Long.

Qiao Xin seemed to be walking fast and then caught Xiao Long's body which was almost collapsing, and the man tried to push Qiao Xin's hand away from his body.

"Do not touch me,"

"Xiao Long stop acting like this, you should go home, you are drunk."

"Who the hell made me like this, huh!" Xiao Long snapped, which even managed to make Mei fall on her knees due to Xiao Long's yell. Mei immediately hid behind a wall, observing Qiao Xin and Xiao Long, who seemed to be arguing.

"Don't mind me, hurry back. Isn't there Brother Cheng that you like so much that you're willing to eat the food you're allergic to?"

"Xiao Long—"

"If you're in pain again tonight, don't ever complain to me,"

Xiao Long was about to leave, but his hand was pulled by Qiao Xin, making the two bracelets perfectly visible and touching each other. Again, the bracelet emitted an actual white color, which made Xiao Long and Qiao Xin, even Mei, too shocked.  After that, Xiao Long again brushed Qiao Xin's hand away, took his tuxedo, and staggered out of the restaurant, feeling anxious Qiao Xin rushed back in with her friends, making Mei rush in before Qiao Xin even suspected her, then Qiao Xin looked at Tao with a nervous look on her face.

"What are you doing, Qiao Xin's cousin?"

"I accidentally saw Mr. Han staggering out of the restaurant, shouldn't you help him, Brother Tao? I'm afraid he's driving his own car and it's going to be bad," Qiao Xin pretended. Mei seemed to smile, and then she looked at her best friend, who now seemed confused. Now she started to know about the man that Qiao Xin had been hiding all this time.

"Alright, you guys come home with me, cousin Qiao Xin. Because we're going home right away."

"Okay,"

"Qiao Xin, you can wait a minute, you haven't even finished your meal yet. I'll take you home later," Xuan Cheng coaxed. However, Qiao Xin shook her head, now all she had in mind was Xiao Long.

"I'm sorry, Brother Cheng. I have to go home with Big Brother Tao, after all, we live in the same house, it's impossible for us to go home alone."

"But-"

Qiao Xin and Tao immediately rushed off, making Li Xuan seem to stop eating then he took a deep breath.

"What about them? aren't they really that weird?" Li Xuan said. Xuan Cheng couldn't help but remain silent. Somehow there was something strange here, not about Tao, but Xiao Long and Qiao Xin, and Xuan Cheng was going to find out as much detail as possible about everything that was troubling his heart so real.

On the other hand, Tao was trying hard to get Xiao Long into the car, that Qiao Xin hurriedly got in and sat beside Xiao Long, who was even leaning his head against the car window. Xiao Long could only close his eyes, and his face looked really, very sad. Red, until he finally lifted his face, pulled Qiao Xin, then kissed Qiao Xin's lips perfectly.

Qiao Xin's eyes widened perfectly, even with Tao, who saw it immediately closed his eyes tightly. But Tao did not want to disturb them at all, and he chose to close his eyes so as not to see the sweet incident.
