Tang Xi's eyes lit up when she saw Xiao Yao. She didn't expect to meet Yao here. Wasn't Yao abroad? Why did he suddenly come here to attend the state banquet?
"I didn't expect President Qiao would also be a VIP at the state banquet. It seems that President Qiao has done a lot for our country." Xiao Yao looked at Qiao Liang and said coldly, "But I wonder how much President Qiao has done behind the scenes …"
"Mr. Xiao." Qiao Liang's face turned cold and so did the people around him. He stared coldly at Xiao Yao and said coldly, "I'm being polite to you because you're Xiao Rou's brother. Don't think I'll be afraid of you asking me these questions. Xiao Rou knows everything about me, including what you don't know, so you'd better not worry about me!"
"Then I hope you won't put Rourou in danger!" Xiao Yao stared coldly at Qiao Liang and said coldly, "You have been targeted by the anti-terrorism organization. Do you think I went to the west city because I heard about your appearance? Do you really think you are so charming? You should thank me for being Rourou's brother that you could successfully transfer this batch of goods out of the south city! "
Qiao Liang frowned. "How did you know the goods were transferred to the south city?"
"Humph, that's nothing to me. Those white men are stupid, but it doesn't mean I'm stupid. I just gave you a chance for Rourou's sake." After Xiao Yao finished speaking, he looked at the president who was approaching him and said, "You'd better tell me who you are and what you're doing, so I can think about it. If this happens again, should I let you go like I did this morning?"
Qiao Liang raised his eyebrows and turned up the corners of his mouth. "Haven't you already guessed my identity?" Looking at the president who was getting closer and closer, Qiao Liang smiled. "But I'm not an enemy of the country, but a friend. I think your boss should have told you this."
"Qiao Liang." The president was a middle-aged man in his forties. He was tall and handsome and even stood in front of Qiao Liang. He reached out his hand to Qiao Liang. "Welcome to this state banquet. Let me entertain you to express my gratitude."
Qiao Liang smiled and said flatly, "You flatter me, Mr. President. That's what I should do as a citizen. A strong country is what we businessmen want to see. Instead of contributing our research to other countries, we'd better serve our own country."
The President smiled and nodded. He then looked at the President of a small country and said, "It seems that the President is also very interested in you. Do you want to go and meet him?"
Qiao Liang shook his head. "I won't join in the fun. Mr. President, please." He stepped aside to make way for the president. The president smiled and looked at Xiao Yao, saying, "Lieutenant Colonel Xiao, please entertain Qiao Liang for me. He has made great contributions to our country's military."
After the president left, Xiao Yao looked at Qiao Liang and frowned. "It seems that even though you are popular in the military, you are still being hunted internationally."
Qiao Liang smiled. "But only if they can kill me." Who would have thought that Qiao Liang of Long Xiao Group was the president of the Qiao's International Group? And who would have thought that he not only had the protection of his own army but also the entire military of Country Z behind him?
Although he didn't expect the military to give him such protection when he supported the military, since the military had such benefits, why didn't he take advantage of it?
At this time, Tang Xi came over and blinked at Xiao Yao. She stood two steps away from them and asked Xiao Yao, "Yao, why don't you go home?"
Hearing Tang Xi call Xiao Yao "Brother" with his own face, Xiao Yao was stunned for a moment, but soon he smiled and said, "Miss Tang, are you talking to me?"
Tang Xi chuckled, thinking that Yao was too cautious. Then she shrugged and went back to her seat. Qiao Liang suddenly took Tang Xi's arm and said, "I'll go with you."
Tang Xi's arm stiffened and her face stiffened. She blinked and looked at Qiao Liang. Qiao Liang took Tang Xi back to her seat and sat down. Tang Xi asked, "What are you doing?! This is the Great Hall! There are reporters everywhere! If others find out about this! They'll write nonsense again! "
"Won't this make people more confused?" Qiao Liang turned up the corners of his mouth and a cold gleam flickered across his eyes. "Isn't it better to let Tang Xi and Qiao Liang be on the hot search list together?"
"But what about Xiao Rou?!" Tang Xi glared at Qiao Liang. "Don't make trouble!"
At this time, Xiao Yao came over and stood between Qiao Liang and Tang Xi. He took a look at Tang Xi and the latter moved aside. Qiao Liang narrowed his eyes at Xiao Yao and asked coldly, "What do you mean?"
"Didn't I tell you not to make trouble?" Xiao Yao looked at Qiao Liang and said coldly, "You're Xiao Rou's boyfriend now. Although we understand you, it doesn't mean the Xiao Family will. Are you sure you can get past the Xiao Family so easily?"
Qiao Liang frowned and fell silent for a while. Then he took a sip of the wine on the table and Tang Xi turned her head to look away …
However, even this little episode didn't escape the cameras of the reporters present. Tang Xi didn't expect that in such a formal situation, there would be other entertainment reporters besides the official reporters …
That reporter had used her connections to pretend to be a waiter and sneak in to take pictures of the popular stars of that small country, but she didn't expect to see this scene. She excitedly took out her cell phone and quickly exited the room and sent the news back to the newspaper …
Soon, Tang Xi, Qiao Liang and Xiao Yao's names were on the hot search list. When Tang Xi came out after the dinner party, she immediately felt a headache …
[Tang Xi and Qiao Liang], [Tang Xi and Qiao Liang in Black], [Tang Xi's Bodyguard]
Looking at the hot search list, Tang Xi felt lucky that the reporter didn't take a picture of Xiao Yao's face but only his back, and the picture of her and Qiao Liang didn't look good, so there wouldn't be any scandal … But the picture of Qiao Liang holding her arm was really … Oh my!
Tang Xi called Qiao Liang. "Have you seen the hot search list?"
On the other side of the phone, Qiao Liang seemed to be satisfied. He grunted and said, "Their photography skills are really bad. How can they be reporters? They must have pulled some strings to get into the newspaper."
"Am I talking to you about this?" Tang Xi was angry. "Do you really want your name to be on the hot search list together with mine?! Look, our names are all over the hot search list! What should we do now?! "
"What can we do?" Qiao Liang said, "They can gossip as much as they like."
