Chapter 336: Appeared in Hot Search Again

Translator: Henyee  Editor: Henyee

Tang Xi's eyes lit up when she spotted Xiao Yao. She didn't expect she would meet Yao here. Wasn't he abroad? Why did he show up in the state banquet?

“I didn't expect President Qiao to appear here. It seems that President Qiao must have made great contributions to our nation.” Xiao Yao looked at Qiao Liang and his face turned cold. “But I wonder whether President Qiao's hands are still clean…”

“Mr. Xiao.” Qiao Liang scowled and his aura became cold. He stared at Xiao Yao as he said sternly, “I'm being polite to you for the sake of Xiao Rou. Do you think I'll be scared being asked this question here by you? Xiao Rou knows everything about me, including those even you don't know. You'd better not meddle in my affairs!”

“Then I hope you won't put Rourou in danger!” Xiao Yao looked coldly at Qiao Liang and said, “The anti-terrorism army has kept an eye on you. Do you think I went to the west side because I heard you were there? Do you think that you were so important? You should thank G.o.d that I'm Rourou's brother. Otherwise your s.h.i.+pment wouldn't be able to get out of the capital!”

Qiao Liang frowned. “You knew the s.h.i.+pment was actually on the south side?”

“Yes, it's just a little trick. You can't fool me with that. I just let you off for the sake of Rourou.” Xiao Yao said and looked at the president who was walking towards him. “You'd better tell them about your real ident.i.ty and what you're up to. Then I can decide whether I should let you off like this morning next time or not.”

Qiao Liang raised his eyebrows and smiled as he said, “I think you've guessed what my real ident.i.ty is, right?” Looking at the president approaching them, he smiled. “But I'm not the nation's enemy, but its friend. I think your boss will tell you about this.”

“Qiao Liang.” The president was a middle-aged man in his forties. He was tall and handsome, and didn't look inferior to Qiao Liang at all. He reached out towards Qiao Liang. “Welcome to this banquet. It's great to meet you here. Thank you for helping us last time.”

Qiao Liang smiled and said flatly, “I'm flattered. As a citizen of this nation, that was what I should do. Although I'm just a businessman, I sincerely hope my country can be strong. It is better to serve my own country than to contribute our research to other countries.”

The president nodded with a smile and looked at the president of the small country who kept looking at their side, asking, “It seems that, that president is also interested in you. Do you want to talk to him?”

Qiao Liang shook his head. “No, thanks. Mr. President.” Then he made way for the president. The latter smiled, looked at Xiao Yao and said, “Lieutenant Colonel Xiao, take care of Qiao Liang for me. He has made great contributions to our national defense.”

After the president left, Xiao Yao looked at Qiao Liang and frowned. “It seems that you have good relations with the government, but you have so many enemies abroad.”

Qiao Liang smiled. “But they can't kill me.” Who would expect Qiao of the Long Xiao Group was the president of the Qiao's International Group? And who would expect he not only had his own army, but also had Country Z's military force protect him?

Although he didn't expect the military would offer him protection when he gave support to them, he wouldn't refuse their protection.

At this time, Tang Xi walked over, blinked at Xiao Yao, stopped two steps away from them and asked Xiao Yao, “Yao, why don't you go home since you've come back from abroad?”

Xiao Yao was a bit distracted by Tang Xi's current face, but soon he smiled gently, asking, “Miss Tang, are you speaking to me?”

Tang Xi chuckled. Yao was too cautious! Then she shrugged, went back to her seat and sat down. Qiao Liang suddenly took Tang Xi's arm, saying, “Let me take you back to your seat.”

Tang Xi's arm froze and her face froze too. She blinked and looked at Qiao Liang. The latter led her back to her seat and let her sit down. Tang Xi asked awkwardly, “What are you doing? This is the Great Hall of the People! The journalists are everywhere! What if they see us being so intimate?!”

“Chaos is not bad sometimes.” Qiao Liang smiled. Being looked at from the side, he seemed to be sneering. “Isn't it fun to see Tang Xi and Qiao Liang's names being put together in the hot search?”

“But what about Xiao Rou then?!” Tang Xi glared at Qiao Liang. “I warn you not to cause me any unnecessary trouble!”

Just then, Xiao Yao came up to them and stood between the two of them. He took a look at Tang Xi who immediately moved to the side. Qiao Liang narrowed his eyes at Xiao Yao and asked coldly, “What do you mean?”

“Don't make troubles, okay?” Xiao Yao stared at Qiao Liang as he said impatiently, “You're Xiao Rou's boyfriend. Although we know the truth, my parents don't. Are you sure they will accept you if you keep acting like this?”

Qiao Liang frowned, fell silent, took the wine gla.s.s on the table and took a sip of the wine, and Tang Xi looked away…

To their surprise, even this little episode didn't escape the journalists' cameras. Tang Xi didn't expect that besides official journalists, some entertainment journalists were also there that night…

That small journalist got in by the back door. She disguised herself as a waitress and wanted to take some photos of the stars. She didn't expect she would see Qiao Liang and Tang Xi showed up together! She was so excited that she took some photos with her cellphone, hurriedly left the Great Hall and sent the photos to her company…

Soon Tang Xi, Qiao Liang and Xiao Yao's names appeared in the hot search again. After the state banquet ended, Tang Xi walked out only to see the news in her cell phone and she immediately felt a headache…

[Tang Xi and Qiao Liang] [Tang Xi, Qiao Liang and the man in black] [Tang Xi and her bodyguard]

Looking at the hot searches, Tang Xi felt lucky that that journalist didn't take photos of Xiao Yao's face but only his back, and she and Qiao Liang didn't look quite intimate in the photos, so people wouldn't guess they had reunited… But in one of the photos, Qiao Liang took her arm… Well, they might need to explain about this!

Tang Xi called Qiao Liang. “Have you seen the hot searches?”

Qiao Liang didn't seem to care. He grunted. “Their photography technology is really poor. How can they become journalists? They must have got in through the back door.”

“Am I talking about this?” Tang Xi was angry. “You did that on purpose, right? Now the news about us is everywhere! What are we going to do?!”

“I don't know.” Qiao Liang said, “If people like gossiping about us, so be it.”
