Qiao Qiao and He Shaochen's Relationship Was Made Known
"Shaochen, go back to A Country."
During the lunch break, Qiao Qiao leaned on the desk and said tentatively.
"You want me to go back?" He Shaochen was dealing with the documents sent by the EMS. When he heard her voice, he looked up.
Qiao Qiao nodded. She tapped her fingers and said, "Yes, you must be very busy every day. I know that you have to attend at least two video conferences every day. You also have to deal with all kinds of official documents. It must be very inconvenient for you to stay in J Country. It's better for you to go back."
"You don't have to worry about my matters." He Shaochen rejected her simply.
He looked at the listless Qiao Qiao and said in a low voice, "You don't look very energetic recently. With so much work, you won't be able to take it. If I go back again, what if you fall sick?"
Qiao Qiao pursed her lips. "You make it sound like I won't be like this if you're here."
"Say that again?"
He Shaochen's face darkened.
Qiao Qiao saw that he was angry and hurriedly propped herself up. She laughed dryly and waved her hand. "I'm just joking. Don't take it to heart."
"Hmph."
He Shaochen snorted arrogantly. He walked over and pressed Qiao Qiao's head into his arms. He said in a low voice, "If I'm not here and something happens to you again, I won't be able to rush over in time. This will make me very anxious, do you understand?"
She didn't know that when he found out that she had been attacked, his heart had stopped beating.
On the way from A Country to J Country, no one could imagine the uneasiness and the deep sense of powerlessness he had felt at that time.
He didn't want to experience this kind of thing again.
"I'm sorry for making you worry."
Qiao Qiao hugged He Shaochen and leaned against his chest. She felt his warm embrace and enjoyed a moment of peace. She slowly said, "But we are not ordinary people. We have responsibilities that we can't be willful. I'm really happy that you can accompany me. But if I delay your work because of me, I will blame myself."
He Shaochen sneered. "Now that you're a princess, you speak in a different way."
"Hehe, people will always grow. I won't stay stagnant forever."
When a person's identity was different, their responsibilities would also change. Their awareness would also be different. This was a very natural thing.
Qiao Qiao blinked and continued, "What's more, your family already has a problem with me, and I've been forcefully occupying you. If they don't let you go back, they'll definitely be even more dissatisfied with me. I'm a greedy person, and I still prefer a complete and harmonious family."
He Shaochen paused for a moment.
Clearly, he had thought of something.
Because of his divorce with Qiao Qiao, he was currently single. His family had also taken the initiative to arrange a marriage for him.
He didn't let Qiao Qiao know about this matter. He was afraid that she would be distracted by such trivial matters.
An hour's time to accompany this girl was better after all the troubles in A Country were resolved.
He Shaochen was a little troubled. He pressed his temples and said, "I understand. I'll go back today, but I'll send people to protect you secretly. I won't let the previous incident happen again."
"Eh?"
Qiao Qiao was a little hesitant. She said embarrassedly, "Isn't it not too good to let A Country's guards protect the princess of J Country?"
If the citizens knew about this, they would probably have opinions …
"This matter is not negotiable."
He Shaochen was unexpectedly firm. "You can also transfer their citizenship to J Country and put them in your guards. In short, I need to know your movements at all times."
It seemed like there was really no room for discussion.
Qiaoqiao had no choice but to compromise. "Alright then, you have to be careful in Country A. You've just recovered, so don't get into any trouble. Don't drink too much, and don't smoke. Although you're still single in name, don't forget that you're my lover. You're not allowed to get entangled with other women, and don't go to nightclubs with your buddies. Those places are very messy, and you might get into trouble if you're not careful. Also, you have to eat your meals on time. Don't neglect everything when you're busy. I'll get Lingyu to keep an eye on you.
As she spoke, Qiaoqiao couldn't hold back her chatterbox.
"If you continue talking, I'll think that you can't bear for me to leave."
He Shaochen sighed. He tilted Qiao Qiao's head up and bent down to bite her lips.
There was a moment of tenderness.
The two of them reluctantly parted. He Shaochen's handsome face had a faint smile. He once again pulled Qiao Qiao into his arms and hugged her tightly. He said calmly, "When everything is over, let's be together forever and never separate again, okay?"
Qiao Qiao pursed her lips and hugged him tightly.
How could she not want to be with He Shaochen forever? But she knew that she couldn't have him all to herself.
She replied gloomily, "Okay, when everything is over, we'll never separate again."
The moment He Shaochen boarded the private jet and left, Qiao Qiao looked at the plane that was rising higher and higher. She suddenly felt a little melancholic and flustered.
It turned out that it was really difficult to separate from the person you liked.
Their love was separated by an ocean's distance.
"Lilith, the next meeting is about to start. Are you ready?" Adam's voice sounded behind her.
Qiao Qiao snapped out of her daze.
She took a deep breath and quickly adjusted her state of mind. She turned around and said to Adam, "I'm ready. Let's go."
He Shaochen had work that needed to be done. She also had a battle that belonged to her.

A few days later.
No one knew who started it, but all the major media outlets in J Country suddenly started to exaggerate the relationship between Qiao Qiao and He Shaochen.
Slogans such as "Glory Exchanged with Your Body", "The Secret Lover of Country A's Nobles", "The Truth Behind Nobility" could be seen everywhere on the news media. Even the secret that several Hope Primary Schools that had been donated in the name of Qiao Qiao were funded by the He Corporation was dug out.
The tacit secret was instantly placed in front of the ignorant citizens and it aroused public anger. Qiao Qiao was once again pushed to the forefront of the storm.
After the public event ended, Qiao Qiao walked out of the conference hall. The outside was crowded with reporters.
Adam had to take emergency measures to strengthen the guards on both sides of the aisle.
"Immediately send another three hundred people to maintain the scene."
Soon, a large number of guards in black formed a human wall with their bodies and blocked the reporters' movements. Because the guards had guns in their hands, the reporters did not dare to get too close. They could only raise their voices and ask questions.
"Your Highness Lilith, what do you think of this matter?"
"Do you really have an unspeakable secret with the head of the He family?"
"It is said that you used to be called Qiao Qiao and came from a poor family in A Country. Is that true?"
"Please answer our questions …"
Qiao Qiao wore sunglasses. Under the protection of many bodyguards, she walked on the aisle expressionlessly. Adam stayed by her side and did not dare to leave.
Qiao Qiao did not answer those people's questions. She had fully turned a deaf ear to the meaning of the word.
At the place where the car was parked, there were even more people surrounding it. The guards had no choice but to use force to suppress these people. After Qiao Qiao got into the car and closed the window, Qiao Qiao heaved a sigh of relief. She took off her sunglasses and rubbed her temples with a headache.
She ordered Adam, "Use the royal prohibition order to order the news media to stop the publicity of this matter. In addition, buy back as much video news and newspapers as possible."
"I'm already doing this. I'll try my best to suppress the rumors. But many citizens already know about this matter. If we want to suppress this matter, we have to clarify it in a public meeting." Adam made his own suggestion.
Qiao Qiao's eyes were fixed outside the car. She could not help but smile bitterly.
"It seems that this is the only way now."
Her relationship with He Shaochen was indeed real. If it was in the past, when she was still Joe Qiao, no one would care who she married. But it was different now. Her identity had changed. She had become the princess of J Country, Lilith. If her relationship with He Shaochen was made public, it would become an international problem.
First of all, the problem of the heir became very acute.
As everyone knew, the oldest and most prestigious Family He in A Country was a super family in politics, business, and the underworld. As the head of He Shaochen's family, He Shaochen's every move involved the interests of A Country. Naturally, his heir would be the focus of attention. As for Qiao Qiao, she was the princess of J Country and was very likely to become the future Queen. Her child would be the next Emperor or Queen. Their union could be said to be very awkward.
On the other hand, there was the bloodline.
Qiao Qiao was originally a mixed-blood child of A Country and J Country. Although according to J Country's law, she also had the right to inherit, the law did not say that only a child with a quarter of the royal bloodline of J Country could become the heir. If she became the Queen, she could only choose from the J Country. Otherwise, it would cause controversy among the people.
Of course, there were ways to solve this problem. Either He Shaochen gave up the right to be the head of He Clan, or Qiao Qiao withdrew from the fight for the throne. But obviously, neither of these methods could be realized.
"Haha, this cousin of mine is really not easy to deal with. I was wondering why he had always turned a blind eye to my relationship with He Shaochen. It turns out that he kept it as a trump card. He is really something!"
Qiao Qiao sneered.
"Lilith, now that things have reached this point, you must keep a distance from Mr He. In the near future, don't have any contact with him." Adam put forward his own proposal.
Both of them were influential figures on the international scene. Their every move was watched by everyone. It was not surprising that they had frequent contact with each other.
Qiao Qiao narrowed her eyes.
She bit her lip and didn't say anything, but Adam could feel that she was struggling in her heart.
"Lilith, you should know what it means to be defeated in this Inheritance War. That Ravel will not be merciful to you. The loser's fate is to be obliterated. This has been the law since ancient times."
"I know."
Qiao Qiao turned her head and said lightly.
She had just reconciled with He Shaochen and their happiness had just begun. Why did such a thing happen? Why were these people always trying to break them up?
His chest suddenly felt stuffy, and a nauseating feeling came from his stomach.
"Ugh …"
Qiao Qiao covered her mouth and began to retch.
When Adam saw this, he immediately put down the document in his hand, stroked her back, and asked nervously, "Lilith, what's wrong?"
