Chapter 391: I Never Regret It

Translator: Henyee  Editor: Henyee

Qiao Liang came out of the car, holding two bouquets of roses with one of them being very colorful. Many people looked at him in curiosity when they saw this handsome man holding two beautiful bouquets of flowers. Qiao Liang, however, ignored the curious stares, entered the elevator and went upstairs…

At that particular point in time, Tang Xi was supporting Xiao Jing to walk out of her room. She looked up only to see Qiao Liang coming out of the elevator. She looked at the flowers Qiao Liang held and froze. Qiao Liang didn’t expect Tang Xi to show up so suddenly. He, at a loss of what to do, held the flowers and looked at Tang Xi blankly.

The two looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

“Well…” Wondering why Tang Xi suddenly stopped, Xiao Jing looked up at Tang Xi in surprise and then saw Qiao Liang. He blinked and suddenly collapsed to the ground. Tang Xi tried to help him up… but failed in her efforts. Xiao Jing lay on the floor and screamed in pain. He then stared at Tang Xi accusingly and said sadly, “Rourou, I can tolerate you two showing lovey dovey stuff in front of me, but why did you let me fall to the ground? Are you bullying me?”

Tang Xi gave an apologetic look to Xiao Jing, and Qiao Liang came over and stuffed the two bouquets of flowers into Tang Xi’s arms. He bent to help Xiao Jing get up from the ground and asked Tang Xi, “What’s wrong with him?”

Tang Xi had most definitely forgotten that she and Qiao Liang were still in a fight. She held the flowers and immediately answered, “My brother almost died! He fainted and just woke up. I feel really bad that I managed to forget about him these days.”

Upon hearing Tang Xi’s words, Qiao Liang frowned. He looked at Xiao Jing’s gaunt face and asked him incredulously, “You almost died? What did you do?”

“I just played some games.” Xiao Jing cast a helpless glance at his sister and said languidly. Qiao Liang took a look at Xiao Jing, took the room card from Xiao Jing’s trouser pocket, and opened his room. He supported Xiao Jing to walk into the room and Tang Xi hurriedly followed them in. As soon as he put Xiao Jing into the bed, the latter fainted again…

Tang Xi was startled to see Xiao Jing faint. She tried to use the all-purpose skills to save Xiao Jing only to find she couldn’t activate the skills now. She asked anxiously, “Is Jing alright? Why did he suddenly faint?”

Qiao Liang turned on the light and covered Xiao Jing’s body with a quilt. He comforted Tang Xi, saying, “He’s fine. I’ll call a doctor to come over and give Xiao Jing a nutrient transfusion.” He said and turned to withdraw the curtain.

Tang Xi put the flowers on the table and Qiao Liang said, “He has a slight fever. Put ice cubes on a towel and cold compress him with the towel. I’m going to call a doctor.”

Tang Xi nodded and hurriedly took ice cubes and water to lower Xiao Jing’s body temperature. About half an hour later, a doctor came over and gave Xiao Jing a physical examination. He said Xiao Jing didn’t have a big problem and gave him a transfusion of liquid nutrients before he left.

Tang Xi touched Xiao Jing’s forehead and was relieved to find that it was no longer hot. At this time, the hotel’s room service sent Xiao Jing a portion of nutrient porridge. Tang Xi put it on the night table, so that Xiao Jing could eat it when he woke up…

Qiao Liang was leaning against the wall and silently watched Tang Xi being busy around… Suddenly they had an eye contact. Tang Xi paused and pursed her lips as she said, “My brother is alright now. Let’s go to my room, in case we’ll bother him.”

Qiao Liang looked down at his watch and said in a low voice, “The needle can be taken out in half an hour. Let’s wait for half an hour more.”

Tang Xi nodded and didn’t say anything more. She was sitting on the bedside chair and looked down at Xiao Jing who was sleeping in the bed. Suddenly Qiao Liang asked her, “Do you like my flowers?”

“Hum?” Tang Xi looked up at Qiao Liang confused.

Qiao Liang walked up to her, took her hand and signaled her to look at the roses on the table. He pursed his lips and said, “I carefully selected these flowers for you. Could you forgive me?”

Tang Xi looked at the flowers and a gleam of tenderness flashed through her eyes. She turned her eyes to Qiao Liang and pursed her lips, asking, “Why did you buy me these flowers? To apologize to me?”

Qiao Liang took a deep breath, sat down on the sofa and pulled Tang Xi to sit down on his thighs, saying hoarsely, “Eleven red roses stands for that I only love you in this life, so don’t say that I can still live happily without you. Without you, I won’t live happily but instead would be like the walking dead! Everything in the world will be meaningless to me. Xixi, you make my life beautiful. Do you know that?”

Tang Xi froze and her eyes grew red. Qiao Liang continued, “Seventeen purple roses stand for that I’ll stay by your side forever. Xixi, I want to stay with you all the time and I don’t want to be away from you for a moment, so if you are angry with me, you can hit me, scold me, or even stab me, but please don’t, don’t say that you want to break up with me, okay? I’m scared of parting with you. I don’t want to experience that pain again! That’s too painful and I can’t bear it!”

Tears flowed out of Tang Xi’s eyes. She wiped her tears and pointed at the five black roses, asking, “Then what do they stand for?”

Qiao Liang looked at the five black roses and answered with a smile, “No regrets. They stand for that I will never regret falling in love with you. You asked me whether I regretted it, didn’t you? Now let me tell you, I don’t regret it. I will never regret it. Xixi, don’t ask me this question again, because my answer will always be the same, which is that I will never ever regret it. It’s the luckiest thing, for me to fall in love with you.”

“It’s the same for me.” Tang Xi kissed Qiao Liang on the face. “I never regret loving you. The only thing I regret is that I let go of your hand at that time.”

Qiao Liang reached out to wipe away her tears and whispered, “Don’t cry. My heart hurts when I see you cry. Although you still look beautiful in tears, I like to see you smiling.”

“In fact, I regretted it as soon as I said I wanted to break up with you. We were finally together again after going through so many hardships. How can I say ‘break up’ so lightly? I’m sorry for that.”

“No, I should say sorry to you. I didn’t consider your feeling but merely made demands of you. This is not your fault but mine.” Qiao Liang said in a low voice, “I’m the one to blame.”
