Chapter 400: Played Lovey Dovey Again
Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee
The people turned their eyes to Qiao Liang. Everyone knew that Qiao Liang used to be Tang Xi’s boyfriend. Qiao Liang almost went mad during the five years after Tang Xi broke up with him. He was more anxious than anyone else when it was said the Tang Xi had an air crash, and he even went to search for her in the Pacific.
It was clear that Tang Xi was very important to Qiao Liang. How dare Xiao Rou invite Tang Xi to be her model? Was she trying to challenge the famous princess of the Empire Group?
They certainly wouldn’t say it out loud but instead looked at Qiao Liang and waited for his response. Qiao Liang took a look at Tang Xi who looked nonchalant. He helplessly sighed in his heart. Tang Xi was being naughty again! He reached out to rub at Tang Xi’s hair and said with a smile, “As long as Rourou likes and wants.”
The people all gasped in surprise. Xiao Jing who had known that Xiao Rou was just Tang Xi looked at the two of them in boredom. The corner of his eyes twitched. Were the two cosplaying? One cosplayed as a bodyguard and the other as the noble princess. Whatever, as long as Xiao Rou was happy…
“Xiao Jing, why do you give them this look?” He Wanyi who was sitting opposite to Xiao Jing happened to see his strange look.
Xiao Jing hurriedly gave her a smile and pursed his lips, saying, “They are playing lovey dovey again! I can’t bear it anymore.”
He Wanzhou laughed and handed the menu back to the waitress, saying, “What I’m worried about is whether Xiao Rou can persuade Tang Xi to accept her invitation. Tang Xi is the heiress to the Empire Group and also a VIP guest of many luxury brands. I still remembered how popular she was in the Chanel’s show a few days ago. She looks gorgeous in that dress.” With that, He Wanzhou turned to Qiao Liang and said with a frown, “That’s why you still can’t forget her, isn’t it? She is such a belle…”

Ning Yan coughed and poured He Wanzhou a cup of tea awkwardly, saying, “Well, let’s drink tea, haha. Haven’t you recovered from your airsickness?”
He Wanning explained to Tang Xi in embarrassment, “My brother didn’t mean to offend you. He was just attracted by Miss Tang’s beauty. Please don’t worry about it.”
Tang Xi shrugged and smiled, saying, “I don’t mind. Tang Xi is excellent indeed. It’s not surprising that your brother admires her. By the way, if she hadn’t been so excellent, I wouldn’t have invited her to be The Queen’s endorser.”
“Oh?” He Wanzhou looked at Tang Xi with interest and asked her with a faint smile, “Sister Rourou, do you really think so? Don’t lie to us.”
Tang Xi smiled and her eyes had a sly gleam. She looked at He Wanzhou and answered with a smile, “Yes, I do think so. She is talented in design. Didn’t you see the posts in the Microblog? That Qin Xinying stole her designs…” She said and nodded seriously. “No wonder I always feel she has very good taste in fashion. She is more fashionable than common rich young ladies. It turns out that she is also a designer.”
He Wanzhou nodded in agreement, saying, “I can’t agree more. What else do you like about her?”
“Well.” Tang Xi nodded with a smile. “She is also beautiful. No matter how fashionable a woman is, if she is not beautiful and well-proportioned, she won’t be very attractive. But she is beautiful and also fashionable. She is a real queen.”
Ning Yan whistled, looked at Qiao Liang and gave him a thumbs-up, saying, “Good job! I’m surprised to see your current girlfriend praise your ex-girlfriend like this! How do you manage to do this? Pass on some experience!”

Qiao Liang took a glance at his girlfriend who was happily praising herself. He smiled and rubbed at her hair as he said, “I don’t need to do anything. She has always been a good girl.”
Xiao Jing almost choked with water when he heard Tang Xi’s words. He hurriedly put the water glass on the table. God, when did this girl became so shameless? How could she praise herself like this?
He Wanyi also looked at Tang Xi in surprise. “Do you really think Tang Xi is so excellent?”
Tang Xi nodded. “Yes, she has a very good education background and a nice personality as well as high IQ and EQ. She is almost perfect in my eyes!”
“Puff… cough…” The water Xiao Jing just drank spurted from his mouth.
Everyone else looked at him and He Wanyi jested, “What’s wrong with you? Do you have a cold?”
Xiao Jing looked at Tang Xi and Qiao Liang accusingly and said indignantly, “I don’t feel very well. I can’t believe my sister is praising her boyfriend’s ex-girlfriend like this!”
The others burst into laughter. He Wanzhou sitting beside him patted her shoulder, saying, “Hey, your sister doesn’t take Tang Xi as an enemy herself. You don’t have to worry for her. If Qiao Liang dumps your sister and goes back to Tang Xi, we’ll help you hit him.” Then he looked at Tang Xi as he said, “Sister Rourou, what do you think? Do you agree with what I have said?”
Tang Xi nodded with a smile. “Yes, I can’t agree more.”
Xiao Jing sighed, “No, you don’t understand my feelings.”
The two were acting but only he knew the truth. Sh*t! He didn’t want to know the truth! If only he hadn’t come to Paris!
At this time, Tang Xi’s cell phone rang. She took a look at the caller ID, frowned and walked to a corner to answer the call…
Seeing this, He Wanyi raised her eyebrows and looked at Qiao Liang, asking, “Did something bad happen at the show field? She doesn’t look right.”
Qiao Liang also spotted the caller ID. He turned up the corner of his mouth as he said, “She can handle it. Don’t worry.”
“It seems that you don’t worry about your girlfriend.” Ning Yan looked meaningfully at Qiao Liang and narrowed his eyes. “Won’t you go and ask her what’s wrong? Or you are still thinking of your ex-girlfriend?”
Qiao Liang raised her eyebrows and looked at Ning Yan, saying, “I said she could handle it. It’s her own affairs I’m not going to meddle in them.”
“Really?” Ning Yan took a breath and said, “I’ve seen the posts in the Microblog. I find…”
“That’s not important. What’s important is what the truth is.” Qiao Liang took a look at Ning Yan expressionlessly. Just then, Tang Xi came in from the outside. Qiao Liang looked back at Tang Xi, asking, “What’s up?”
“No big deal. Someone just can’t wait to see me.”

Artemis
"Let them go, Dante." I whip my head to see a small boy standing the clearing with blonde hair and a green cloak hanging from shoulders. He isn't very tall however he holds his stance well. He doesn't seem to be more than Cassandra's age. Maybe 12 at most. I abruptly turn my head back hearing the man holding a sword to my throat chuckling with a sinister grin. "Oh, poor boy, what are you go to do about it?" The yellow teeth gleam as he begins stalking towards the boy who does not look the least bit fazed. I look around at the other men who are following the leader. I pull Cassandra tighter to my back as I take small steps back. I keep my eye trained on the men but also fear for the naive boy. "Do you really want to test me Dante?" He asks raising a single eyebrow. For a minute the men stop their movements. I see their hesitation for fear... Fear of what? I take the moment to stick Cassandra behind a nearby tree. She crouches down while I pull my sword out from its place. "How do you know my name?" The scoundrel raises his sword challenging towards the boy before taking a final step towards him. Then the unexpected happens. The young boy chuckles so darkly. It sounded almost... demonic. All the men instinctively raise their swords. "Oh Dante, I didn't know your name... but you know someone dear to me." "Spit it out boy!" The once grinning man is now looking around frantically. I continue my eyes scanning the small boy. He looks directly me and gives me a small nod before saying one word that caused all hell to breaks loose. "Artemis." Artemis is not an ordinary girl. She grew up in the wilderness after being shunned due to unique abilities and her different physical attributes. Blessed with an ability that scared others, she roams the wild with only her guarded one. That is until she stumbles into a situation that brings her in front of a prince.
