Chapter 209 - Meeting Again

Hearing that Qiao Qing Hao finally agreed, his face revealed a happy expression. However, he didn't notice the worry that flashed through Qiao Qing Hao's eyes. He didn't know if Chu Liang could still face Xiang Chen Xi calmly.

As for Tao Chu Liang, he still didn't know anything about Xiang Chen Xi returning back home, even Chen Shu and Sheng Jue didn't know about this matter. In the past few days, Tao Chu Liang had already accepted the fact that he was sick, so he was very cooperative and took the medicine.

She also knew that Qiao Qing Hao and Chen Shu had always been helping her find a better doctor. Although her vision was starting to blur, she could still take care of her own life, so she rejected Chen Shu's request to find her a housekeeper. As she was now, she preferred to be alone.

On this day, Qiao Qing Hao came to the villa to see Chu Liang. Qiao Qing Hao would come every single day, so he was already used to it. Although this was Xiang Chen Xi's villa, he could already accept others staying here.

Qiao Qing Hao had come today for Xiang Chen Xi, so he was not completely confident. He did not know what the result would be, but he thought that Chu Liang would at least be happy to see him. After taking a deep breath, Qiao Qing Hao entered the door.

Tao Chu Liang sat on the sofa and opened the OA system on his phone. He was listening to the reports from various departments every day. Without even turning his head, Tao Chu Liang knew that it was Qiao Qing Hao.

Tao Chu Liang shook his head: "It's just that I don't want myself to feel like a cripple."

Qiao Qing Hao was stifled, and anxiously said: "Chu Liang, that is not what I meant! "I mean..."

"I know, I know you care about me. "Just let me do my best while I can. Perhaps after a period of time, I won't be able to do anything else …"

Qiao Qing Hao sat beside her, and said gently: "Chu Liang, how could that be? We'll help you do whatever you want to do in the future. "

Tao Chu Liang did not speak for a while, his phone continued to play the employee report. Qiao Qing Hao took the cell phone from her hand and laughed: "Chu Liang, it's been a while since I went out to play, how about I bring you out for a walk!"

Tao Chu Liang frowned: "I don't want to go, you go yourself."

Qiao Qing Hao seemed to have already known that she would say this, so he said gently: "Actually, today is my birthday, I want to invite you out to eat dinner. It can't be that you aren't satisfied with this wish of mine, right? Come to think of it, I haven't eaten with you in years. I still remember that time in that little restaurant, we actually ate and chatted for so long! In retrospect, I still think that was the happiest time of my life. "

"Can you honor me and make me happy again?" Qiao Qing Hao spoke with sincerity.

Tao Chu Liang lifted his head to look at Qiao Qing Hao's face, meeting his eyes that were filled with anticipation. Tao Chu Liang sighed and said helplessly: "I didn't think it would be your birthday. Alright then, I'll go out for a meal."

Qiao Qing Hao was overjoyed, immediately lifting Tao Chu Liang up from the sofa. Tao Chu Liang was a bit strong, she felt that he wasn't strong enough to be supported by others when walking, thus he avoided Qiao Qing Hao's hands and said indifferently: "Qing Hao, I can still see."

Qiao Qing Hao's heart hurt, and he said in a low voice, "Alright then, be careful."

Actually, Qiao Qing Hao wanted to trick Tao Chu Liang to go out, so he had already called him today. But just now, he had been selfish. He thought to himself, why didn't he go eat with Chu Liang? It had been a long time since he had gotten so close to her.

Qiao Qing Hao chose a very quiet Japanese restaurant, he knew, that the current Tao Chu Liang, did not want to be disturbed. The dining hall was located in the Sacred Grounds Arena, and was relatively close to where Xiang Chen Xi was talking about. It would be more convenient for him to bring Chu Liang there later on. At this moment, he wished he could be slow.

He enjoyed this kind of feeling, and only felt sad when he looked at Tao Chu Liang in front of him. He remembered that when he first met Chu Liang, he was lively and cheerful, and had endless things to say to him. Right now, she was very quiet, and was only focused on eating the dishes in front of him.

Qiao Qing Hao would look at his watch from time to time. He felt that it was a little strange, so he asked: "Qing Hao, did you hold some kind of party?

Qiao Qing Hao repeatedly shook his head: "Of course not, to me, being able to accompany me on my birthday is more important than being accompanied by countless other people!" Qiao Qing Hao stopped speaking, the meaning behind his words, could not be any clearer.

Tao Chu Liang pretended not to hear and took a sip of champagne.

After finishing his meal, Qiao Qing Hao looked at the time. It was about time. He was suddenly very reluctant, if Chu Liang saw Xiang Chen Xi, would he return to his side? At that time, he could only look at her from afar. But, only Xiang Chen Xi could make her so happy, right?

Qiao Qing Hao and Tao Chu Liang strolled side by side in the Sacred Grounds Arena. Qiao Qing Hao intentionally brought her to the place he had told his beforehand.

Tao Chu Liang sensed it and turned to ask: "Qing Hao, aren't we going home? "Why is it that we're walking towards the center of the plaza?"

"Chu Liang, look! That shop is really unique, let's go in and take a look. " Qiao Qing Hao gently pulled Tao Chu Liang towards that direction.

Tao Chu Liang took a glance at the shop from afar and didn't even look at it carefully. He felt that it was really strange for Qiao Qing Hao to have been dragged by a man into the shop by himself today, hence he frowned: "Qing Hao, I don't want to go shopping right now. How about you go take a look by yourself.

Qiao Qing Hao said mysteriously: "I heard that this shop was newly opened. The things inside match your taste very well." Qiao Qing Hao pulled Tao Chu Liang along without explanation and walked over.

Standing outside the store, Tao Chu Liang looked at the wooden sign above his head, which had the words "Only" written on it. Tao Chu Liang muttered: "The only one?" As he stepped in, Tao Chu Liang looked at everything bright around him and felt his heart light up.

Quietly walking to the row of display cabinets, Tao Chu Liang looked at the rings inside the counter that were neatly placed, and only saw a light in front of him. The person who designed these rings must have a clean heart. A pair of sanding rings attracted her attention. A ring made of sanded silver had a hidden luxury within. On the surface, it was simple and elegant, but inside, it was very full.

Tao Chu Liang liked designing jewelry, and immediately felt like the designs in front of him had opened up a new door in his heart. It had been a long time since he had seen a ring that could move his heart like this. Unknowingly, Qiao Qing Hao had already quietly retreated, but Tao Chu Liang did not notice it.

The classic "This is just right for you" played back quietly inside the store. It was a perfect match for everything in the store. The layout of this shop was very strange. It was unlike the other shops, where it was a square store. This shop was shaped like a U. As he walked in, he saw that there were display cabinets on both sides of the shop.

In every case, there was a main jewellery work. Whether it was earring, bracelet, or rings, Tao Chu Liang felt that these designs were all very surprising. And if you looked carefully, every piece of jewelry had the logo "Only" printed on it.

For a moment, she wasn't bored of it. On the contrary, she continued walking inside as if she was tempted. But no matter how Tao Chu Liang thought about it, he still couldn't think of any information about this brand. This made Tao Chu Liang even more curious. If it was really like this, then Xiang Group had another competitor.

It was only when she reached the deepest part of the store that she realized the layout of the shop.

"Onlyyou..." What kind of person would have such thoughts? She suddenly became curious. What kind of person could create such an ingenious store? This designer must be someone in a deep love, right? Otherwise, how could he feel such a strong aura of love here?

Tao Chu Liang stood there in a daze. The more filled with the aura of love, the more miserable he would feel. Suddenly, all the lights in the shop went out, leaving only the music to continue. Tao Chu Liang instantly felt that his surroundings was pitch-black. Only then did she realise that Qiao Qing Hao was actually not behind his the entire time.

"Qing Hao!" Tao Chu Liang cried out in panic. Her eyes were no longer as sharp as they used to be, and she was even more afraid of the dark. At this moment, Tao Chu Liang inexplicably felt fear in his heart.

In the darkness, there seemed to be light approaching him and light footsteps. Because of the layout of the shop, Tao Chu Liang could only see the tunnel in front of him. However, he couldn't see it behind the corner in front of him.

"Who?" Is that you, Qing Hao? Stop messing around, I want to go home! " Tao Chu Liang thought that it would be Qiao Qing Hao.

Slowly, something appeared in front of him at the corner. It was a cart with a large cake on it. The only light in the whole shop was from the candles on the cake. Then, a figure appeared, pushing the cart and walking towards him.

Using the light from the candles, Tao Chu Liang was able to see the man's face clearly. Then she froze. Ecstasy, surprise, panic, nervousness, and grievance filled her mind. For a moment, many emotions flooded her mind, and she felt as if he was about to lose his footing.

Seeing each other again, everything seemed so unreal! He's back? When did he come back? Had he seen him at home? Why did he come back? Instantly, he felt as if he was in another world. He had lost weight. Why had he lost so much weight? He must have had a hard time these days, right? Tao Chu Liang's heart ached.

Tao Chu Liang's eyes started to fill with tears. He felt that if he continued for another second, his tears would gush out! Why was it so hard to see each other again?

With every step Xiang Chen Xi took, it was like he was stepping on top of her heart. She held on to the display case beside his, afraid that his legs would give out and he would sit down.
