Chapter 72 - Problem {3}
Qiao Xin seemed to yawn a few times, and she kept yawning even after getting off the bus. At this stop, which was the last stop for passengers to drop off, Qiao Xin and Mei finally parted ways because their residences were in opposite directions. Mei glanced at Qiao Xin, who looked tired, making Mei smile faintly.
"Hey!" Mei said, patting Qiao Xin on the shoulder until her best friend turned to her. "Don\'t sleepwalk, okay. You have to get home before you sleep. I know your bad habit, Qiao Xin. You will sometimes look for a place anywhere as long as you can sleep. Remember you are a woman, and it\'s not safe here. I\'m afraid that some masher will take advantage of you."
Qiao Xin waved her hand. Her eyes seemed to feel so heavy and almost closed tightly. She nodded slowly, then walked towards the Han family\'s residence, which still took quite a while.
How not, the bus will not arrive in front of the Han family\'s house. What\'s more, Qiao Xin will get off in front of the Han family\'s home directly. She had to be willing to walk a bit far so that no one would know her identity as Xiao Long\'s wife. After he started walking, Qiao Xin seemed to be limping. But for a moment, her brows looked furrowed as if she was in danger. How not, behind her, even though Qiao Xin faintly heard a footstep, the footsteps continued to walk steadily, following her footsteps. Walking so steady and terrible, even though this district is a reasonably quiet district, on the right and left there are only playgrounds and basketball courts as well as tennis courts. In the end, there is only the Han family\'s residence.
Qiao Xin gripped her bag tighter, and she then quickened her pace because she didn\'t want anything to happen. Behind Qiao Xin, instead heard the sound of the footsteps getting faster and more precise, making Qiao Xin start to shiver and be scared to death by it.
On the other hand, Xiao Long was busy reading some news from the magazine. Then he glanced at his grandfather and continued to walk restlessly, then looked at him. Xiao Long tried to ignore the panicked look on his grandfather\'s face, but he couldn\'t help it either because his grandfather\'s eyes kept staring at him with such realness.
"Why does Grandpa keep looking at me like I\'m a suspect in a criminal case?" annoyed Xiao Long in the end. Xiao Chuan crossed his arms, and he looked at his grandson with that serious look on his face,
"Xiao Long you know what time it is?" asked Xiao Chuan then. Xiao Long looked at the watch wrapped around his wrist indifferently.
"It\'s 10pm," Xiao Long replied then.
"And Qiqi hasn\'t come home until now. Aren\'t you a newlywed husband? Are you too calm and uncaring? Qiqi works at Han Corporation. So if you came home from this afternoon, shouldn\'t Qiqi also be home this afternoon? Actually, what job did you give him that Qiqi hasn\'t come home yet? tell Grandpa."
"Grandpa, why is Grandpa so worried about Qiqi? She\'s grown, she\'s got her own feet to walk home. After all, she\'s been working this late too because," Xiao Long stopped his speech. He couldn\'t possibly say that Qiao Xin might be having an intimate conversation with Xuan Cheng. At the time of his position, Xuan Cheng worked at Weijing Group. "I mean, she\'s grown, and there\'s no way she\'s in any danger anyway. In fact, criminals don\'t want to do anything weird with her. Believe me,"
"Xiao Long, what your grandfather said is true. After all, Qiqi is a woman. How are you, why are your behavior getting weirder day by day. Don\'t you two love each other?"
Xiao Long immediately fell silent, as his mother had already started to speak. If the problem had involved his mother, this would have been even more difficult. Xiao Long could at least argue with his mother.
"Alright, alright. I will see up front, whether my wife is home or not. Oh my God, my sweet wife must be tired by now."
Xiao Long immediately rushed out, then he peeked at Grandpa and his mother, chuckled with a look of displeasure, took his coat, and decided to go outside the gate of his house.
On this cold night, Xiao Long continued to grumble about how he could be sent out of the house. Though obviously, heating would be a lot of fun for him now.
"You rotten trash, why doesn\'t she come home too. If he\'s been home for a long time like this, I\'m sure I\'ll be the one going to the Weijing Group looking for her, annoying," Xiao Long grumbled.
He leaned against the railing of his house, putting his hands in his coat pockets. Then he turned his head, saw the silhouette of a woman who seemed to be walking so fast and scared, causing Xiao Long to frown and look directly at the shape which, although still quite far away, it became increasingly clear that it was Qiao Xin. Xiao Long\'s eyes widened when he noticed another silhouette, a man that Xiao Long didn\'t know who seemed to be walking fast as if to reach Qiao Xin. Seeing this, Xiao Long immediately ran over to Qiao Xin. He was hugging Qiao Xin\'s body until she returned the hug with her body shaking violently.
Qiao Xin had no idea that Xiao Long was in front of the mansion, and what made Qiao Xin relieved was that she was finally safe. Somehow Qiao Xin felt that way whenever she was with Xiao Long.
"Calm down, don\'t panic. If you panic that person will definitely do something to us. pretend you don\'t know," whispered Xiao Long. Qiao Xin nodded her head.
Qiao Xin lifted her head, her clear eyes now glazed over. Who flushed the tip of her nose along with her cheeks? That panicked look was visible on her face. Xiao Long was stunned for a moment, and he didn\'t expect Qiao Xin to be so scared. And if Xiao Long guessed, the bus stop that was far from his house must have been the stalker following his wife already scared Qiao Xin to death. Luckily, Qiao Xin was still safe this time, although Xiao Long didn\'t know the stalker\'s aim. Xiao Long had to find out from now on. he didn\'t want to put Qiao Xin\'s life in danger.
"Has that person left?" Qiao Xin asked. Xiao Long nodded when he saw that the street was deserted and no one was there anymore.
Xiao Long then immediately took Qiao Xin\'s hand to enter the house fence, releasing her grip, and the two walked hand in hand.
"You must have committed a crime," Xiao Long joked. Qiao Xin immediately turned her head.
"What?"
"Yeah, maybe you\'ve done something bad. That\'s why until a stalker came to follow you. I\'m sure you\'re not a good woman. or," Xiao Long cocked an eyebrow with that annoying look. "Maybe it was your ex-boyfriend, he came because he missed your body."
"Can you not say things that make me angry? Why every time we talk never talk well. I\'m tired of arguing with you, so stop talking. After all, it couldn\'t be that person Jia Min. however, Jia Min won\'t know about this complex of yours. if he didn\'t follow me even from Weijing Group earlier."
Qiao Xin and Xiao Long were both speechless. It was as if the two of them were thinking about something. Weijing Group? If it\'s true that the stalker has followed from Weijing Group, doesn\'t that mean that stalker is very suspicious?
Qiao Xin immediately dismissed all possibilities in her mind. Meanwhile, Xiao Long was still thinking very hard.
"Tomorrow you go with me, come home with me. Don\'t pretend to be great by coming home late again," Xiao Long said. Qiao Xin glanced at her with a strange look.
"And after that everyone will know that you and I have a relationship. Don\'t be stupid, Xiao Long. I do not want to. Besides, why do you have to say that? are you worried about yourself now?"
Hearing the accusation, Xiao Long shrieked in surprise, and then he hugged himself with that handsome look on his face.
"I\'m worried about you? Tch! Do not dream!" said Xiaolong. "I am Young Mr. Han who is very handsome and adored by all women. How could a precious man like me worry about an ugly duckling? Are you dreaming? If so, then keep that stupid dream of yours, Qiqi. Because I would never do it. My purpose in offering you a ride is, because Grandpa and Mother had been lecturing me until they were foaming at the mouth. I don\'t want Grandpa to secretly send a driver or his right hand to pick you up at the Han Corportaion, of course you still remember, don\'t you, if you lied to Grandpa. You said you worked at Han Corporation not at Weijing Group. So stop acting when this handsome Big Brother wants to help you cover up all your rotten lies."
Xiao Long immediately acted like an angel, making Qiao Xin want to throw up because she was too fed up with Xiao Long\'s behavior.
"Sorry, Young Mr. Han who is pretentiously handsome even though I don\'t know where your good looks come from. But, I don\'t need that unfortunate scene of your hero for me. So stop acting like you\'re a good human being, from any point of view, you\'re no good at all."
"Oh, you\'re saying I\'m not handsome?"
Xiao Long immediately pulled Qiao Xin\'s hand until Qiao Xin\'s body perfectly fit into his embrace. Then, Xiao Long\'s face approached Qiao Xin\'s natural face made Qiao Xin barely blink at it.
"Even your face turns red when you see my handsome face, so stop acting like I\'m ugly," Xiao Long annoyed. He let go of his embrace and made Qiao Xin fall perfectly on the ground.
"Han Xiao Long!" shouted Qiao Xin in annoyance. Xiao Long laughed, and then he ran as hard as he could to avoid Qiao Xin\'s pursuit. That night, it seemed as if the two of them were back like children, chasing under the full moon.
