Qiao Liang liked Tang Xi's confident demeanor in the workplace. At this moment, she seemed to shine the brightest, and no one could obscure her brilliance.
…
Qiao Liang sent Tang Xi to Qiao Yuxin's place to perform acupuncture on her. On the way, Tang Xi kept telling Qiao Liang about her career blueprint. Qiao Liang saw her talking excitedly as if the difficulties she would face in the future were nothing to her. Qiao Liang rubbed at Tang Xi's hair and raised his eyebrows, asking, "Are you so happy?"
Tang Xi nodded and her eyes sparkled. "Yes." She took Qiao Liang's hand and narrowed her eyes. "The Empire Group belonged to Grandpa. Although it was my responsibility, I didn't like to manage the company, but to design. However, as the only heir of the Empire Group, I can't choose to be a designer instead of the leader of the company. Now …" Tang Xi paused and looked up at Qiao Liang as she continued, "Although I can't go back to Grandpa now, I can love Grandpa with another identity and do what I like."
Qiao Liang paused, held Tang Xi's hand tightly and said in a low voice, "Silly girl."
Although you can continue to love and care for your grandpa as Xiao Rou, you're still sad that you can't accompany Grandpa who has taken good care of you since you were a child as his granddaughter. How can I not know your pain? But now even if I know your pain, I can't do anything to help you … This is what makes me most helpless and distressed …
Tang Xi gave a faint smile and looked up at Qiao Liang. "I think there are miracles in everything. Maybe Grandpa will accept me as his adopted granddaughter, and then I can accompany Grandpa again."
Qiao Liang smiled, looked at Tang Xi helplessly and shook his head. "Do you know how much your grandpa doesn't want to see me now? Although he didn't say anything on the surface and didn't even blame me, from the last time we met, I knew that your grandfather was smiling at me on the surface, but he must be scolding me in his heart, so he definitely won't recognize my current girlfriend as his granddaughter. "
Tang Xi glared at Qiao Liang and curled her lips. "What you said is true, but can you not say it out loud?"
"I just don't want you to be disappointed in the future." Qiao Liang looked helplessly at Tang Xi. "The greater our expectations are, the greater our disappointment will be …"
"Alright, alright!" Tang Xi hurriedly interrupted Qiao Liang. Looking at the scenery in front of her, she raised her hand and said, "I'm here. You can go ahead. I'm going to perform acupuncture on Auntie. I'll have Little Six send me home after that. Call me when you have dinner with Lu Li in the evening."
Qiao Liang looked helplessly at Tang Xi who had jumped out of the car and rolled down the window. "I'll ask Little Six to wait for you here. You can go back …"
"Go ahead …" With that, Tang Xi ignored Qiao Liang and turned to walk into the Qiao Mansion. Qiao Liang looked at Tang Xi's back and his face stiffened. The corner of Little Six's eyes twitched. Oh, no … why did he have to be the driver again?! Did Young Master vent his anger on him because he was ignored by Miss Tang? This won't do! He would definitely resist!
Tang Xi swiped the card to open the door and walked in. After the door was closed, she leaned against the back of the door and looked up at the blue sky with melancholy in her eyes.
Ah Liang, do you know? I want Grandpa to know that his beloved granddaughter is still alive, and I don't want Grandpa to be immersed in the pain of losing his granddaughter, and I don't want those people who coveted the Empire Group to get what they want, but I don't want to let you down …
Design … yes, I like design very much, but design is not indispensable in my life. In the past, only you and grandpa were indispensable in my life, but now … there are so many more people … my relatives who are good to me, my friends who are good to me …
In my life, it has never been those external things that I can't live without. It has always been you.
"Rourou, you're here?" Hearing Qiao Yuxin's voice, Tang Xi came back to herself. She looked over only to see Qiao Yuxin was doing rehabilitation on the lawn with the help of several servants.
It was mid-October and it wasn't very hot in City A anymore. Wearing a short-sleeved shirt, Tang Xi didn't feel too hot in the sun, not to mention there was an umbrella over the place where Qiao Yuxin was doing rehabilitation. Tang Xi calmed herself down, walked over with a smile, kissed and supported Qiao Yuxin to do rehabilitation for a while, and then helped Qiao Yuxin sit down on a chair. "Aunt, you look much better today."
Qiao Yuxin nodded, looked down at her legs and sighed with emotion. "I thought I would never be able to stand up again. I thought I would become a joke of the Qiao Family and live in pain for the rest of my life …" She held Tang Xi's hand and smiled. "But because of you, Rourou, because of you, I see hope." Tang Xi smiled and pursed her lips.
Tang Xi smiled and pursed her lips. Qiao Yuxin took a look at Tang Xi and sighed. "Rourou, I know the relationship between you and Ah Liang is not as simple as I think it is, but I won't ask what happened between you two, nor will I ask about your past. I just hope you two can get along well. I can see that you love each other very much and even do your best for each other, but sometimes I can see tiredness in your eyes. It's not because you don't love each other, but because you love each other so much that you feel tired …"
Qiao Yuxin stopped talking. Looking at Tang Xi whose face was covered with tears, she hurriedly reached out to wipe her tears and said anxiously, "Rourou, don't cry. Tell me what's on your mind. I've been through it and I can give you some advice."
Tang Xi shook her head. "Aunt, you can't help us with our affairs. We don't have any conflicts, but … I always feel something is wrong between us … I don't know what exactly is wrong, but I just feel something is wrong … I don't know what I'm thinking about … I …" Tang Xi shook her head, opened her mouth, fell silent and pursed her lips. "Maybe … it's because I'm Xiao Rou that I have this feeling."
Qiao Yuxin was dumbfounded by Tang Xi's words. What did she mean by "maybe it's because I'm Xiao Rou?" She looked at Tang Xi and said gently, "But you are Xiao Rou, aren't you?"
Tang Xi paused. She was Xiao Rou?
Was it because she was Xiao Rou that everything became so natural?
