Chapter 382: Seek Advice
Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee
He could tell from that video that Qiao Liang cared about Xiao Rou so much that he even began to restrict Xiao Rou’s freedom. That could be suffocating! And Qiao Liang said he didn’t need her to save him at all and she made decisions above herself, which hurt her. He could tell from the way Xiao Rou looked at Qiao Liang that she loved Qiao Liang very much. If he were Xiao Rou, he would be mad too if Qiao Liang said those words to him, let alone Xiao Rou. He had investigated Xiao Rou who after experiencing a lot more than ordinary girls, must be more sensitive. She lacks a sense of security and needed to be treated with care.
Qiao Liang’s words must have deeply hurt her.
Qiao Liang clenched the steering wheel and cast a glance at Chu Ling who shrugged and said with a smile, “Unlike you and Lu Li, I haven’t fallen in love with a girl. But I have had many girlfriends, and I know what girls are thinking. If you don’t mind, I can give you some advice on how to chase a girl. But I have to remind you my advice is not for free.”
Qiao Liang took a look at him, asking, “Then how much will you charge?”
Chu Ling raised his eyebrows and looked at Qiao Liang with interest. “I didn’t expect you would be so fascinated with a girl! I didn’t see you so troubled when you were with your ex-girlfriend, Tang Xi who your current girlfriend is disguising as.”
Qiao Liang frowned and said seriously, “My love for Tang Xi is true.”
“Then why did you break up with her?” Chu Ling pursed his lips and said, “You wanted to break up with her because you were not that into her. Just now Xiao Rou wanted to break up with you, you acted as if it was doomsday, no, to be exact… even worse than doomsday. I can feel your desperation even from the video.”

“No, it didn’t mean I was not that into her.” Qiao Liang said and took a look at Tang Xi from the rear-view mirror, saying gently, “I was too young and didn’t understand what she meant to me. When I realized how important she was to me, it was too late.”
Fortunately, they still had a chance, so he didn’t want to miss it. He would cherish every second when they were together, would never ever leave Tang Xi in danger, and would live happily with her ever after, instead of…
“Since you love her, why would you do something to hurt her?” Chu Ling looked at him and pursed his lips. “Since you love her, you should make her happy. Life is short. Don’t waste time on stupid matters. Make every day Count.”
“Don’t speak like an old man.” Qiao Liang looked back at Tang Xi who was still sleeping, pursed his lips and asked with a lowered voice, “How should I apologize to her?”
Chu Ling turned his eyes to Qiao Liang and widened his eyes in surprise. Qiao Liang coughed in embarrassment and signaled him to lower voice, saying, “Don’t wake her up. Let’s talk about this later.”
Half an hour later they arrived. As soon as the car stopped, Tang Xi woke up. She cast a drowsy glance at the two of them and Chu Ling smiled at her, saying, “Go check the progress. Tell me if you have any problems. Qiao Liang and I will wait for you outside.”
Tang Xi nodded and turned to walk in without even looking at Qiao Liang, who looked at her back and frowned. Chu Ling shook his head when he saw this scene. He lit up a cigarette, leaned against the car and asked as he raised his eyebrows, “What happened? Why did she want to break up with you?”

When Qiao Liang heard the word ‘break up’, his eyes had a gleam of darkness. He told him what happened between him and Xiao Rou this morning to Chu Ling. The latter rolled his eyes, and looked at Qiao Liang in astonishment, asking, “So do you think Xiao Rou should not go out since she is too attractive to men? She should stay at home all day long? Come on, It’s the 21st Century now.”
Qiao Liang frowned and explained, “I just don’t want her to be in danger.”
“Really?” Chu Ling looked helplessly at Qiao Liang. “She is fine, right? Then why did you force her to write a letter of apology? You didn’t act like her boyfriend but her teacher! A letter of apology? That’s ridiculous. No woman can accept that! If you continue to treat her like this, I’m sure she will leave you soon!”
Qiao Liang’s face darkened when he heard Chu Ling’s words. The corner of Chu Ling’s eyes twitched and he continued, “Trust me. no woman can tolerate such strong possessiveness. It’s not okay.”
“I have to say that you were in the wrong. You have missed a great chance! You rescued her from the hooligans and she must appreciate you so much. Last night should have been a perfect night for you two and your mutual affections should have been sublime. Normally, you two would have had the sweetest time of your lives and the next month should have been your honeymoon. But you messed up this chance! You rescued her last night, yet today she wants to break up with you!”
The more Chu Ling spoke, the more he felt Qiao Liang was an idiot in love affairs!
He looked at Qiao Liang, shook his head helplessly and took a puff of the cigarette. He then put out the cigarette butt, and threw it into a dustbin, saying, “I wonder why you behaved like a hot-headed boy in front of the woman you love. You just tell her what you want her to do, but don’t know how to express your love for her.”
“If I knew that, she wouldn’t have been so angry at me!” Qiao Liang sullenly lit up a cigarette. “Now you just need to tell me how I should apologize to her, how I should make her forgive me. I don’t want to hear “break up” from her mouth again! When I hear this word, I feel like I’m going crazy! And I don’t know what I will do!”
“That’s simple.” Chu Ling chuckled. “For most women, a surprise present, a candlelight dinner and then a sweet kiss will be quite enough. You have never given her any surprise presents, have you?”
Qiao Liang frowned and looked at Chu Ling in doubt, asking, “Are you sure?” Why did he have a feeling that he shouldn’t believe Chu Ling?
“It’s not going to work if you ‘buy’ her a piece of jewelry, but that will be a totally different story if you ‘design’ one for her yourself!”
