Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee
Throughout the dinner, Tang Xi had been watching Qiao Yuxin and Qiao Liang bickering and joined them from ti to ti. The atmosphere was very lively, and this was the first ti that Tang Xi saw Qiao Liang speak so much all these years, although he ate very little and kept peeling shrimp for her or putting food into Qiao Yuxin’s bowl with chopsticks.
Tang Xi ate almost one kilogram of bamboo shrimp in this al. She burped in a way not graceful at all, put down her chopsticks and said with satisfaction, “I can’t eat anymore. If I continue to eat, I will be too full to fall asleep tonight.”
Qiao Liang smiled and handed a cup of fruit juice to Tang Xi who took a mouthful of it and returned the cup to Qiao Liang. He took it over, drank so juice and put it on the side. He then pushed a plate of unpeeled shrimp to Tang Xi, and the latter gave him a questioning look and blinked. “Are you hungry?”
Qiao Liang nodded and grunted. “Yes.”
Tang Xi paused for quite a while before she got what he ant. Qiao Yuxin who was sitting opposite them laughed when she saw this. “Rourou, I rarely see my son act so childishly in front of girls. Please don’t refuse him!”
Tang Xi blushed. She knew Qiao Liang didn’t eat much. He was busy peeling shrimps for her and picking up food for Qiao Yuxin, while she and Qiao Yuxin were chatting. Now they were full, but he was still hungry... Thinking of this, Tang Xi silently picked up a shrimp and began to peel it for him...
But she was not good at peeling shrimps. Qiao Liang needed twenty seconds or so to peel one shrimp, but she needed two minutes. After taking off the shell, she also had to remove the dirty guts... The shrimp was almost shredded by her. Under Qiao Yuxin’s stare, Tang Xi put the shrimp flesh to Qiao Liang’s mouth. Qiao Liang smiled, took a look at her and ate the shrimp gladly. When Tang Xi was busy peeling shrimps for him, he took his chopsticks, ate two mouthfuls of food and drank the juice that Tang Xi didn’t drink up... In this ti, Tang Xi only managed to peel the second shrimp...
Half an hour later, Qiao Liang finally finished the dinner. Fortunately, it was sumr. If it were winter, the dishes might have to heated for more than one ti. Qiao Liang was full, but Tang Xi felt hungry again... But she decided not to eat anymore, because she didn’t want to be laughed at by soone...
The two helped Qiao Yuxin to sit on the sofa and watch TV. Tang Xi decided to give Qiao Yuxin acupuncture in half an hour. Just then, Qiao Yuxin’s cell phone rang. He picked it up, listened for a while and nodded. “Okay, let ask her.” He then turned to Tang Xi. “They are in the “Romantic Night” club now and asked us to co over. Do you want to go there?”
Tang Xi raised her eyebrows. “Is that the sa bar we went to last ti?”
Qiao Liang nodded. “Yes, are you going there?”
Tang Xi smiled. “Okay, it’s Saturday tomorrow, and I want to talk with Sister Wanyi about the details of our cooperation. I can take the chance to talk with her tonight.” Tang Xi paused and said, “But we’ll be going there later, because I need to give Aunt acupuncture. Will they have left when we reach there?”
Qiao Liang nodded, looked at his watch and said, “It’ll be almost ten o’clock when we get there.”
He then looked up at Tang Xi. “They said they would leave at midnight at the earliest.”
Tang Xi nodded. “Okay, then we’ll go there.”
When Qiao Liang hung up the phone, Qiao Yuxin said, “My legs have been much better. It’s alright if you don’t give acupuncture tonight. You can go have fun. I know young people today are busy and don’t have much ti to relax. It’s great to have a party to attend. Just go there.”
Tang Xi shook her head and looked at her watch. “It’s still early, and tonight’s treatnt is important. I’ll acupuncture another acupoint on you. The treatnt can’t be canceled.” With that, she ca to hold Qiao Yuxin’s arm and said cutely, “I’d rather see you walk than hang out with them.” She gave a bright smile. “Aunt, you’re so beautiful and graceful. You must look stunningly beautiful when you stand up and walk.”
Qiao Yuxin was greatly amused by her words. She laughed, gently patted Tang Xi’s hand and said, “You’re really honey-lipped, Rourou. Every ti you co here, I’m very happy. How I hope you marry Ah Liang earlier.”
Tang Xi chuckled. Qiao Liang glanced at his mom. “Unfortunately, my proposal was rejected by her today.”
Tang Xi blinked but didn’t speak. Qiao Yuxin was surprised to hear that, but then glared at Qiao Liang and said, “Who can you bla? It’s all your fault. You just ca to know Rourou. She hasn’t known you well enough and you haven’t showed her your sincerity. Of course she wouldn’t agree to marry you now.”
Qiao Liang was surprised that his mom took sides with Tang Xi. Tang Xi kept nodding. “Exactly. You haven’t shown any sincerity. How can I agree to marry you?” Then she turned to Qiao Yuxin and complained, “Aunt, do you know? He just said my ring finger needs a decoration, so he would give a decoration! How can a man propose like that?!”
Qiao Yuxin widened her eyes in astonishnt. “He didn’t even get on his knees?”
Tang Xi curled her lips and shook her head. Qiao Yuxin looked at Qiao Liang with disdain as she said, “Even your shaless father got on his knees to when he proposed to . You didn’t even get on your knees? And you didn’t even prepare a ring?”
Qiao Liang surrendered and kept quiet. His mom even compared him with Lu Guangxiong who she had refused to ntion in the past five years.
Seeing Qiao Yuxin win, Tang Xi sitting beside Qiao Yuxin gave Qiao Liang a complacent glance as if saying, “Look, like I said, the way your proposed to was too la. Even your mother can’t stand it! Hum!”
Qiao Liang took a look at Tang Xi, and suddenly dragged her to his side. Tang Xi was caught off guard and almost fell into his arms. Qiao Yuxin chuckled when she saw this. Tang Xi was not used to be so intimate with Qiao Liang in front of Qiao Yuxin, so she cast an angry look at Qiao Liang and tried to sit up, but he didn’t let her. He put his arm around her waist, put his forehead against hers, and asked hoarsely, “Are you satisfied?”
Tang Xi looked at Qiao Liang blankly and didn’t know how to answer him. She just gazed at him silently...
