Chapter 215: Public Displays of Affection
Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee
Hearing Xiao Hongyi’s words, the servants had greater awareness of the status that Tang Xi had in the Xiao Family. It seemed that they must not mess with this girl. It was rumoured that Xiao Hongli and his family treated her even better, and Grandpa Xiao also liked her a lot. They had to be very careful in front of this Miss Xiao Rou.
Tang Xi was surprised to hear Xiao Hongyi say that. She shook her head after a short pause. “No, thanks. I’ll buy them on the way back.”
Xiao Hongyi nodded with a smile, and handed a black card to Tang Xi. “Take this. Buy what you need with it. The password is your birth date.”
Tang Xi raised her eyebrows. It should be Xiao Rou’s birth date? Fortunately, she could know which date it was from Xiao Rou’s ID card. She took the black card without hesitation and replied, “Thank you, Father.”
She already had three million Yuan, but it was not enough for her to found ‘the Queen’, so it would be best to not use that three-million Yuan for other things.
Xiao Hongyi was glad to see that she was willing to use their money.
…
When Tang Xi arrived at the Qiao’s International Group, she asked the driver to go back, saying that she would stay here for a long time, so she would take a taxi back. After getting out of the car, Tang Xi called Qiao Liang before putting on a hat and mask.
Receiving Tang Xi’s call, Qiao Liang was surprised but his eyes were full of joy and love. “I’m going to have a meeting. You can stay in my office and wait for me. I’ll take you to see your studio after the meeting.”
Thinking of what Qin Xinying did, Tang Xi raised her eyebrows. “I’m going to declare war against someone, so I want her to see you pick me up. Are you coming downstairs to pick me up or not?”

Hearing her domineering tone, Qiao Liang laughed and shook his head. He liked to see her being jealous. He said ‘just a minute’ and called his secretary. “Put off the meeting for ten minutes.”
He asked her, “Where are you? I’m going to pick you up.”
“I’m standing beside the flower bed outside the building. I want you to pick me up yourself.” Tang Xi hung up the phone, looked up at the Qiao’s Building with a faint smile. “Qin Xinying, what will you think if you see Qiao Liang put off the meeting just to pick me up himself?”
Two minutes later, Qiao Liang who was in a formal suit attire, appeared at the entrance of the building. He looked at Tang Xi helplessly yet lovingly, shook his head and walked over. He then patted her head affectionately. “Let’s go, my queen.”
Tang Xi squatted next to the flower bed and looked up at Qiao Liang. Seeing him walk towards her with the light radiating on him, she was in a trance. This man was really handsome! His girlfriend was really lucky! Seeing Tang Xi in a trance, Qiao Liang dragged her up, naturally putting his arms around her waist and asked her in a low voice, “Have you seen enough of me?”
Tang Xi finally came back from her daydream reverie. She looked around and found many people were looking at them. She gently pushed Qiao Liang’s shoulder and said shyly, “Many people are looking at us. Mind your image and let me go.”
Qiao Liang looked at her blushing face and smiled. “You asked me to pick you up.” Instead of letting her go, he hugged her even tighter.
Tang Xi gave him a look of annoyance. “I’m trying to anger Qin Xinying. She’s not here, so you don’t have to do this.”

Qiao Liang looked at Tang Xi sullenly. “It’s been two days. You don’t miss me but instead are just using me to try and anger Qin Xinying?”
“That’s because of you!” Tang Xi glanced at him and smiled. “Besides, don’t you like me making out with you? Though my purpose is to take revenge on Qin Xinying.”
Qiao Liang gently touched her nose tip with a finger and whispered, “You can rest assured. As long as these people see it, Qin Xinying will surely see it as well… So let’s spice it up…”
Feeling her forehead almost touch Qiao Liang’s chin, Tang Xi slightly leaned backward but then found this gesture was more embarrassing, so she hurriedly reverted back to their former position, asking, “How?”
Qiao Liang tilted downwards and kissed Tang Xi on the lips through the mask. Then he bent down again and gently kissed her red earlobe, whispering, “Like this…”
Tang Xi blushed and pinched him on the waist. “You’re such a Lothario!”
Qiao Liang smiled and was about to speak when a cold voice rang behind him. “President Qiao, shall I put off the meeting for another fifteen minutes?”
Tang Xi looked at Xiao Jing whose face was all dark and exclaimed “I’m doomed!” in her heart. But on the other hand, opposite to the turmoil she was feeling, Qiao Liang seemed to feel nothing. He still put his arm around Tang Xi’s waist and walked into the building. “No, thanks. The meeting will start as scheduled.”
Tang Xi silently followed Qiao Liang, lowering her head and dodging Xiao Jing’s reproachful eyes. But the more she thought of it, the more aggrieved she felt. Without paying attention, she accidentally stepped on Qiao Liang’s foot. Qiao Liang stumbled and almost fell down. He quickly and calmly stabilized his steps and looked at Tang Xi with doubt only to see Tang Xi’s exasperated stare. He coughed, rubbed her hair and said in a low voice, “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t do this.”
A senior manager passing him suddenly stumbled and the files in his hand fell to the ground…
President Qiao was apologizing?!
After the three of them entered the elevator, the staff in the lobby all gathered in twos and threes. “Is that the girl who came to the company last time?”
“She is the Miss Right, right? As we all know, President Qiao is a cold person, but he kissed her in public just now!”
A receptionist stroked her chest. “My Prince Charming becomes a henpecked husband!”
“Ohhhh!” That senior manager shouted, “The files I prepared for the meeting was accidentally ruined by me when I heard President Qiao was apologizing to that beauty! I never expected President Qiao would say sorry so softly and lovingly! Oh my god! What’s wrong with the world? My God!”
“No, I’m going to post a message in INS. The iceberg man finally melted!”
“Oh, I’m going to do it too! I shot a video when they kissed. I’m going to post it on Microblog! Of course our president’s face will be covered with mosaics!”
“Yes, yes. I’m going to post in on my Circle of Friends. President Qiao’s loving eyes! Oh, my old heart melted!” A pretty girl held her cell phone and looked in the direction of the elevator obsessively.
At this time, a handsome, well-dressed young man walked over and put a book over her head. “You’re merely 23 years old. How can you call yourself old? If you’re old, what about me?”
When the girl saw the young man, she exclaimed obsessively again, “Oh, when I see you, my fujiyoshi heart awakes!”
