  Soon Huo Yun came over and told them the airplane had been prepared and could take off at any time. Lu Li took a look at Qiao Liang and the latter nodded at him. He picked Tang Xi up from the bed and walked out of the ward. Lu Li followed him from behind, took a look at Huo Yun and said flatly, “You two stay here and deal with the aftermath. You don’t have to follow us back to Paris.”


  “No!” Huo Yun looked at Qiao Liang’s back and pursed her lips, saying, “Miss Xiao was injured for protecting Mr. Qiao. I should go take care of her. Mr. Qiao is too busy to protect her at all times. We can take turns to look after Miss Xiao, right?”


  When Lu Li heard this, his eyes had a gleam of surprise. He raised his eyebrows and looked at Huo Yun, asking with a faint smile, “Do you really think so?”


  Huo Yun paused and nodded. “Sure. Please trust me!”


  Lu Li smiled and said, “Okay, then you can follow us back.” He turned his eyes to Feng Hua, saying, “Feng Hua, you stay here to deal with the matters here.”
……

  Paris

  Chu Ling kept calling Tang Xi, but the call couldn’t be connected. Someone finally answered the call when he called her for the fifth time. He lost his temper and roared, “Xiao Rou, what the hell! Are you going to see the show field or not?! Didn’t you say you would go to check the show field with me this afternoon? But what time is it now? It’s getting dark! How can we go to see the show field now?”


  Qiao Liang frowned and his eyes had a cold gleam. He said, “I’ll go check the show field with you tomorrow.”


  Chu Ling was surprised to hear Qiao Liang’s voice. He said, “I had guessed that, that girl was with you. It seems that I guessed right.”


  Qiao Liang clenched the phone and narrowed his eyes, asking, “Was she worried about me?”


  “Yes, she was worried about you after she knew Provence was in a riot. I asked her whether she would go find you? She denied it. But it turned out that she did go to Provence to find you.” Chu Ling walked over to the window and looked at the night sky of Paris, saying with a smile, “Qiao Liang, sometimes I envy you guys. The three of you have beloved women and a brotherly friendship. Someone will worry about you when you go out. It’s……”


  “I can help you tell your father about your whereabouts.” Qiao Liang said with a straight face.

  Chu Ling could almost see the insidious look on Qiao Liang’s face. He blinked and smirked as he said, “Brother, please! Don’t mention this horrible topic on such a beautiful night! I’d rather die than be taken home by my father and face my twelve step-mothers!”


  “But all your twelve step-mothers are fond of you.” Qiao Liang folded his arms against his chest, looked at the view out of the window and smiled, saying, “If you dare be sharp-tongued in front of Xiao Rou again, I will have no choice but to let your father take you home and let your twelve step-mothers take good care of you!”


  “Did Xiao Rou have an accident?” He thought something bad must have happened to Xiao Rou. Otherwise Qiao Liang wouldn’t be so mad at him as to threaten him with his twelve step-mothers.

  Qiao Liang turned his eyes to Tang Xi who was lying quietly on the bed, narrowed his eyes and coldly said, “You’d better pray that she can answer your call herself tomorrow morning. Otherwise I will throw you back home tomorrow afternoon, and……”


  “Where are you?” Chu Ling hurriedly interrupted Qiao Liang because he didn’t want to hear him mention his twelve step-mothers. He asked anxiously, “When did she have this accident?” However, Qiao Liang had hung up the phone. Chu Ling looked at his cell phone, cursed and hurriedly dialed a number. “Locate this phone number for me!”


  Twenty minutes later, Chu Ling’s phone rang. He picked up the call and the other side told him an address. He hastened to drive his car and head for the destination. It would usually take him an hour to reach the destination, but he reached there within thirty minutes. However, he hesitated in the car when he reached the destination.

  If he rushed upstairs, Qiao Liang would take him as a punching bag. Maybe he should wait until tomorrow morning. But he wanted to know how she was right away……

  Although he didn’t mean to make that woman go to Provence, neither did he expect that she would go to Provence, she was injured because of what he told her…… Alas, even if the woman wasn’t injured because of his words, he would come to visit her, because she saved his life!

  Thinking of this, Chu Ling immediately opened the car door and jumped out of the car. But he stopped after only walking two steps. He said to himself, “Chu Ling, calm down. If you go upstairs now, Qiao Liang will take you as a punching bag and beat you badly. You don’t want to see that happen, right? It’s not too late for you to go upstairs tomorrow morning……”
……

  The next morning, Chu Ling, with two dark circles, went upstairs to knock on the door. Qiao Liang opened the door only to see Chu Ling standing in front of him who looked really gaunt. He frowned and turned to walk into the room. Chu Ling who was always arrogant and indifferent couldn’t keep up his usual demeanor anymore. He rushed into the bathroom and washed his face. Then he came out and looked at Qiao Liang, asking, “How is she? Has she woken up?”


  Qiao Liang didn’t answer him. Seeing this, Chu Ling almost knelt down. He looked at Qiao Liang and whined, “My dear cousin! Please! Don’t tell my whereabouts to my father! I will be doomed if he find me! In any case, I didn’t mean to……”


  “I’m not your cousin!” Qiao Liang scowled and stared coldly at Chu Ling.

  Chu Ling was relieved to see Qiao Liang didn’t ignore him. He hurriedly said, “My grandmother’s family name is also Qiao, so it’s no problem for me to call you cousin. Even if you don’t want to give me any face, you should give some face to my grandmother. I finally escaped from that cage. How can you have the heart to send me back!”


  Qiao Liang looked at Chu Ling and the later begged, “Please, just tell me what you want me to do! I will promise you anything!”


  “Lend me your intelligence network in Africa for three years.” Qiao Liang looked at Chu Ling and said with a straight face, “Or you’ll have to work for The Queen for five years instead of two years. Which one do you choose?”


  “I choose to go back home and kiss my father’s ass!” Chu Ling raised his chin and said arrogantly.

  Qiao Liang nodded as he said, “Very good. I like your choice.” Then he took out his cell phone and was about to dial a number. Seeing this, Chu Ling rushed up, knelt down and hugged his legs. “My dearest cousin! You can’t be so cruel to me! Let’s talk about this! One more year! I’ll work for The Queen for three years, alright?”
