Chapter 446: A Rival in Love?
Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee
Tang Xi didn’t expect she had owed bank such a great amount of money although The Queen was just founded. If she hired a supermodel to be The Queen’s endorser, she would be broke.
And… Tang Xi pursed her lips. If she served as the endorser, she could save so much money and be one step closer to her aim.
[Warm prompt of the system: A national goddess must be an omnipotent goddess.]
Tang Xi, “…”
Shit! An omnipotent goddess? Can’t you make it clearer in the first place?! I’m angry!
[Warm prompt of the system: A goddess must be a fair lady all the time who will never curse others, especially your dearest system.]
Tang Xi, “…” Why did I suddenly want to beat this damned system?
Noticing the starnge look on Tang Xi’s face, Qiao Liang raised his eyebrows, asking, “What’s wrong?”
Chu Ling hung up and Tang Xi put her cellphone aside and looked at Qiao Liang. “Why didn’t you show me the bills?”
Qiao Liang paused and looked at her. “Chu Ling has told you about the cost?”
Tang Xi nodded. “Yes, although we can use the special glass and transparent reinforcement bars for free, I have to pay the other costs on my own. Otherwise, I will feel uncomfortable. I don’t want to completely rely on you and I want to repay the loan myself.”
Qiao Liang gazed deeply at Tang Xi. It had been quite a while before he said in a low voice, “Xixi, I’m your boyfriend.”
“I know.” Tang Xi held his arm and smiled at him. “I know you’re my boyfriend. I don’t mind you treating me to meals and buying me presents, but I don’t want o rely on you to run my company. Ah Liang, you know, I want to stand beside you with my own ability.”

Qiao Liang frowned and Tang Xi continued, “You know, I’ll turn to you for help when I come across problems that I can’t solve, but if I always ask you for help whenever I’m in trouble, I wonder how I can survive. So give the bills to me and let me try to solve the problem by myself, okay?”
Qiao Liang sighed and smiled helplessly. Tang Xi added, “Look, I almost live solely depending on you. I allow myself to do this because you’re my boyfriend.”
“Okay, I’ll give the bills to you. You can repay me later.” He had paid the bills, so she didn’t have to worry about the money.
“Ah? You’ve paid the bills?” Tang Xi blinked and looked at him.
Qiao Liang reached out to rub at her hair. “I won’t allow my girlfriend to owe others money.”
Tang Xi pursed her lips and put her arms around his waist. “Oh, it feels so good to have a sugar daddy! You won’t charge me any interest, will you?”
Qiao Liang helplessly pointed at the tip of her nose. “Of course not.”
They made out for a while and then called He Wanyi to have breakfast with them. To their surprise, everyone was present, even including Xiao Jing who claimed last night that he would get up late. Tang Xi asked with a smile, “Is something special happening? Why have you all gotten up so early?”
“Rourou, I have a business to negotiate.” He Wanzhou said.
He Wanning smiled and said, “Won’t your fashion show be held tomorrow? So we want to visit your show field today. In any case, we’re friends and we should help you.”
Tang Xi was moved. “I’ll treat you to breakfast.” Then she looked at He Wanyi. “Sister Wanyi, I remember you said you had a job this afternoon?”

He Wanyi paused and suddenly thought of what someone said to her, so she shook her head. “No, I’ve canceled the job this afternoon, so I can go with you.”
Tang Xi raised her eyebrows and didn’t say anything. They sat around a big round table, Qiao Liang ordered dishes and Tang Xi was chatting with him. Qiao Liang said something to Tang Xi who widened her eyes and asked, “Really? Then what was his reaction?”
“He seemed to be fine.”
Tang Xi chuckled. “Brother Lu is always tough. Then what did he say? Will he go talk with Sister Wen Ning? I think they must have a misunderstanding.” She then pursed her lips. “Otherwise, how could Sister Wen Ning expose herself so easily? If she wanted to kill you two, she wouldn’t have called you.”
The more Tang Xi thought about it, the more she was sure she was right.
Qiao Liang nodded and looked up, and then he froze. The others didn’t notice his look. Not getting Qiao Liang’s response, Tang Xi looked up and also froze…
Wen Ning in a white dress came up to them. She smiled at them and Tang Xi also smiled at her. Qiao Liang raised his eyebrows, and Wen Ning looked at Qiao Liang, asking, “Can I talk with you?”
Wen Ning was tall and well-curved. In this snow white dress, she looked very attractive. Everyone looked at her and then turned their eyes to Qiao Liang in doubt…
Qiao Liang stood up and walked to a corner. Wen Ning nodded at Tang Xi and followed Qiao Liang there.
Xiao Jing looked at Wen Ning’s back and frowned. He tutted and thought this woman looked very familiar to him~
He Wanzhou looked at Tang Xi and jested, “Rourou, your boyfriend left with a belle! Why are you still so calm? Aren’t you afraid that your boyfriend is stolen by her?”
Tang Xi took a look at him and shrugged. “Then Brother He, are you going to take Qiao Liang back for me?”
He Wanzhou stared at Tang Xi with wide open eyes. “Rourou, you’re not as pure as before!”
Tang Xi smiled and looked back at the two of them talking in the corner. Sister Wen Ning must come to explain to Lu Li. That was great. She and Lu Li were just like Qiao Liang and her in the past who both had very strong self-esteem. If neither of them made the first step, they might miss out on each other…
However, it seemed that Sister Wen Ning was braver than her. She had come to explain to Lu Li.
Seeing Tang Xi keep looking at the two of them, He Wanzhou thought Tang Xi was being jealous. He looked at Tang Xi all smiles and said in a lowered voice, “Rourou, your eyes are almost glued onto them. Why don’t you just rush over and confront that woman? How dare she hit on your boyfriend?!”
