11 ~About Bestfriend?~

Xiao Long seemed silent, and he allowed his parents to talk to the Doctor about his grandfather's health problems. He then let out a deep breath, he actually felt guilty. He thought that he was the one who caused his grandfather's illness to get worse; by being such a stubborn grandson. He had blatantly refuted his grandfather's order. But in his defence, he simply could not marry Qiao Xin because she was not his type at all.

Xiao Long walked down the hospital hallway, then stopped at an inpatient ward with his hands tucked into his trousers pockets. He looked into that room, took a deep breath and walked toward the door of the inpatient room, his eyes caught a figure who was also unconscious from the effects of his anesthetic.

He was finally forced to help the woman by becoming his guardian and taking care of his medication. It was something he did not want to do, but he had to do it anyway.

Xiao Long sighed again, then he turned the knob of the door to the room, entered there, and then stood beside Qiao Xin, who was lying weakly on the gurney.

"Be honest to me, what have you done to my grandfather? Of the many women close to me who were perfect and way better than you, how could Grandpa choose you to be my wife? What is so good about you? What made you stand out in Grandfather's eyes? I just can't understand his Grandpa's school of thought. A rundown and shabby woman like you doesn't deserve me. You are the worst kind of human in the world, and I am the perfect kind of human in the world. We are coming from a different world. So I beg you, go away from this city for your own sake, or just return to your hometown and stop forcing yourself to live in this city. For, if you are still here, I will keep hurting you. Until you leave this town for good, " Xiao Long seemed to be talking to himself, beside Qiao Xin, who was unconscious. Then he took another deep breath, staring at Qiao Xin's face, which still looked bruised. He gnashed his jaw when he remembered her boyfriend's face again. How could there be a woman as stupid as Qiao Xin? Having unhealthy relationships with men who get drunk and gamble time and time again. On top of that, her boyfriend is excessively violent and abused her over and over again. It boggled his mind. Qiao Xin fell easily into extortion just using a scandalous video. Even though what was recorded in the video is just a normal adult couple having an affair.

After he finished giving her a piece of his mind, he decided to leave her room. There was no use for him to stay in that room. He would also feel more useless if he felt sorry for that shabby woman.

"Young Master Han, do you want to return home, or you want to stay here to accompany Mr. Han?" asked Xiao Long's private driver.

Xiao Long's steps stopped, then he looked at his driver with a frantic gaze.

"I want to go to a nightclub. Take me there," Xiao Long replied.

"Yes, Young Master Han!"

On the other hand, Jia Ming and Cheng Shuang seemed to be sitting together. The two of them were still in the office and were currently drinking together. Cheng Shuang looked at Jia Ming, who had been silent all this time. Then he took a deep breath.

"Mr. Zhou, what makes you so restless like this? Isn't your goal of working with the Han Corporation achieved now? Then why are you staring blankly and putting on such a disheveled look?" asked Cheng Shuang.

Jia Ming glanced at Cheng Shuang. Then he smiled wryly. Of course he would feel troubled; to fulfill his ambition to work with the Han Corporation, he had exchanged something too valuable to lose. He had thrown away the long-standing friendship he had with Qiao Xin. He had kicked out his best friend in the worst way possible. Even when he was in a difficult situation, Qiao Xin's family took care of him even when they were suffering through misfortune themselves. Never, not even once, did they object to taking care of him. Jia Ming cursed himself. What should he do to get things right? He had to apologize to Qiao Xin, even kneel in front of her if he had to so that his friend would no longer despise him. Even now, her cell phone was completely unreachable.

"Is Mr. Zhou still thinking about Qiao Xin?" guessed Cheng Shuang. Jia Ming remained silent. "Mr. Zhou knows how she acted earlier. She was the one who went alone and didn't accept anything you wanted to give her. So stop blaming yourself. But if Mr. Zhou still feels guilty because she is your best friend, why don't you come to her to make up for it? To meet her and apologize? You can explain yourself, right? So I hope you can enjoy your hard-earned achievement, Mr. Zhou. I will always support you through thick and thin, "

Jia Ming now smiled at Cheng Shuang's encouragement. He seemed to rest easy once he heard such uplifting words.

"Mr. Zhou, don't you think your friendship with Qiao Xin is too close?" Cheng Shuang asked. Jia Ming immediately turned his head.

"What do you mean, Miss Cheng?" he asked. Cheng Shuang then smiled sweetly.

"Both of you are too close, and a lot of employees think that you have a special relationship; more than just a friend. Especially the employees who do not know that Qiao Xin has a boyfriend. So in my opinion, it would be good if Qiao Xin does not work here. Thus it will clear yourself out of such misunderstanding. "

"Clarifying a misunderstanding? And the assumption?" asked Jiang Ming, who seemed confused. This is like accusing Qiao Xin of being the worst woman in the world. "I don't even care what they thought about us. So why do the employees have to know about our true relationship? Even I don't mind at all, why should you?" replied Jia Ming.
