My Secret Marriage : Meet With The Best One

"Yes, Young Lady Han. These are all gifts Young Mr. Han sent as an apology for breaking his promise to you," Tao explained.

Seeing this, Qiao Xin's face turned bright red. How could it not be, right now, Xiao Chuan and her mother-in-law and several maids who were there were looking at her with a smile. As if this spectacle is an interesting thing for them.

Qiao Xin cleared her throat, looking at all the gifts that filled the house's main hall. Expensive gifts, ranging from jewellery, bags, clothes and so on. But Qiao Xin was still Qiao Xin, and she was nobody or any other woman who might be flattered by this. On the contrary, she felt that Xiao Long had done only to make fun of her. How can it be if only apologizing for breaking a promise to be excessive like this?

"Alright alright, looks like Xiao Long is really from the heart and serious about his apologies to Qiqi. As good parents, shouldn't we get out of here and give Qiqi time to think about all the gifts Xiao Long has so lovingly bought."

Qiao Xin's mother-in-law was about to take Xiao Chuan away, but before the two of them left, Qiao Xin approached Tao with an annoyed expression on her face. Her knee-length dress now seemed to move slightly upwards when she crossed her hands to her chest. Tao lowered his head, though he occasionally glanced at Qiao Xin's pretty face.

"These are all apology gifts for me?" Qiao Xin asked in the end.

Feeling a breath of fresh air and feeling that Tao's idea for Xiao Long would make Tao smile, he nodded his head excitedly.

"Yes, Young Lady Han. These are all gifts Young Mr. Han has given you."

"So now that this gift is for me, everything is mine, right?" Qiao Xin asked again. Tao nodded again, then Qiao Xin smiled full of cunning. She spread her eyes to the servants there.

"You collect all these useless things in the back garden near the warehouse, burn them all to nothing,"

"What?!" shocked everyone there.

How could it not? All of these items were very expensive goods, even very luxurious, so all the rich people in the country seemed to have difficulty getting them. But how could Qiao Xin have all these things burned? A thing that is beyond human reason and a woman's reason at all.

"But this, this—"

"Burn them all, don't all these things already belong to me?" annoyed Qiao Xin while repeating her orders. Tao was getting more and more shocked. He was silent, looking at Qiao Xin. It was true what Xiao Long said if Qiao Xin was a very strange person, a figure far different from normal women in general. "Then tell that esteemed Young Mr. Han, that promises are not something that can be replaced with any kind of expensive materials or goods. I don't accept his apologies of any kind!" Qiao Xin said then, she walked away, making Tao directly contact his boss immediately.

"Don't touch this thing, I will report this matter to Young Mr. Han,"

On the other hand, Xiao Long looked on his chin, and he had already imagined how happy Qiao Xin was right now. Xiao Long was sure that if Qiao Xin now would worship him to be the most generous and kindest person in the world, when Xiao Long came home later, he would see a very amazing sight when Qiao Xin knelt in front of him and even washed his feet. Xiao Long smirked, how he waited for time to pass so he could go home soon. For a moment, Xiao Long glanced at his cell phone, which displayed a call from Tao. Xiao Long quickly picked up the call.

"Tao, what happened? how? Is that ugly woman sitting there in awe of all the gifts I sent home? She must be worshiping me with joy right now, and wishing that if I came back soon she could kneel under my feet and wash my feet, right? Tell her that I can't go home early, I'm a very busy man in the world who doesn't care about small things like this, if she really intends to worship me, have her wait for me when I get home, and—"

"Young Mr. Han, Young Lady Han ordered to burn all the gifts Young Mr. Han sent today."

"I already…" Xiao Long's words stopped as he started to absorb what Tao said.

One second,

Two seconds,

Three-

"What?!" Shocked by Xiao Long in the end, Tao seemed to put his phone away when he heard Xiao Long's loud voice. "What happened? how could that scum woman tell me to burn all the gifts I've worked so hard to give her? Doesn't she know how much all those gifts cost? even if she worked her whole life until she was a hundred years old she would never be able to buy those gifts. How impudent, how could she belittle me like this! I will not stay silent, I have to go home soon to teach her a lesson!" annoyed Xiao Long.

"Young Mr. Han, Young Lady Han told me that all these gifts you gave were of no use at all. Because Young Lady Han said, breaking a promise is not a mistake that can be replaced with expensive goods."

Xiao Long immediately hung up the phone, and his jaw clenched at Tao's words. Xiao Long would never forgive at all whatever Qiao Xin had done. Looked down on him so markedly, for then he got up from his spot, walked out and ran into Li Xuan. Even Li Xuan, who had just greeted him, seemed to be ignored, causing Li Xuan to frown in confusion.

"Xiao Long what's wrong with him now? usually he would pull me into his room. Why did he just walk away now with that horrible look on his face? really very suspicious," Li Xuan muttered.

*****

"Why don't you guys burn all these useless gifts right away?" asked Qiao Xin, who managed to make all the maids lower their heads.

Xiao Chuan and his daughter-in-law couldn't help but take a deep breath, then both of them smiled.

"Father-in-law, can we not interfere in their matters? we better go into the room. Seeing Qiqi sulk like that, it looks really cute."

"Therefore we must remain here, my daughter-in-law. We'll see how Xiao Long will behave towards Qiqi. You yourself know how stubborn and impatient Xiao Long is, we'll see for this fight who will win. Considering that Xiao Long is my grandson that no one can dispute and challenge the most."

"Our apologies, Young Lady Han. But we—"

"Who are you afraid of? Am I not the Young Lady of this house? so burn them all now!" annoyed Qiao Xin.

The maids lowered their heads again, their faces pale white, as the figure walked over and stood directly behind Qiao Xin.

"I hate that annoying man, does he think all these gifts can bribe me? Did he think it was so easy to break promises and get bribed so easily by things like this? you son of a bitch! What a brainless man! An idiot and no conscience at all!" Qiao Xin's curse.

All the maids there could only stare at Qiao Xin in fear. How could it not be? The figure behind Qiao Xin was none other than Xiao Long, who had his arms crossed, putting on a sinister look as if he was preparing to kill Qiao Xin. Right now.

"Oh, so all the gifts I gave were useless, that's why you're going to burn them, Qiqi?" said Xiao Long, which managed to make Qiao Xin freeze. Qiao Xin seemed to be swallowing her saliva with difficulty, and she slowly started to turn her body, looking at Xiao Long, who was already looking at her with that icy cold gaze.

Since Qiao Xin didn't want her dignity to drop, she tried to keep looking at Xiao Long with a haughty gaze. SHe puffed out hER chest and put her hands on her hips.

"Why, do you feel that you are an immoral human now? how dare you trade promises with that useless trash! how can you be this low? Sorry, I'm not a woman who can be bribed with things like that, because to me a promise is something that has a far higher value even than all these things you have given me!"

Xiao Long's mouth was perfectly clenched. How could he not? Qiao Xin's words had slapped him in a very real way. Then Xiao Long narrowed his eyes, seeing that Grandpa and his mother had peeked at him and Qiao Xin perfectly. Because of that, Xiao Long immediately hugged Qiao Xin tightly, making Qiao Xin try to struggle to free Xiao Long's embrace.

"You shut up, Qiqi. Haven't you seen that Grandpa and Mother have been watching over us all this time? Your anger could have dismantled our contract marriage, and what do you know about all this? If our agreement is broken, you will be the only one to blame and will have to pay a fine even higher than all the things I gave you," whispered Xiao Long.

Qiao Xin's eyes immediately bulged, she glanced at the left side of the room, and sure enough, Grandpa and her mother-in-law were already watching her along with Xiao Long. Qiao Xin couldn't help but surrender as she took a deep breath.
