Qiao Xuan's face slightly blushed, and then she chose a tie clip, allowing the clerk to wrap it up.
Qiao Xuan had secretly paid the bill, she was afraid that Sheng Liang would help her pay the bill again.
Sheng Liang and Sheng Yan were chatting on the sofa behind him, when he raised his head and saw Qiao Xuan, he immediately stopped, extended his hand and pulled her over, "You've finished reading already, why don't you choose a few for your father and Qiao Nan?"
"They've already bought it," Qiao Xuan said as he handed the bag over to him. "This is for you, consider it as a birthday present, let's see if you like it or not."
Sheng Liang was startled, seeing Qiao Xuan looking at him, he opened the bag and took a look, "As long as it's a gift from you, I like it."
Luo Keke could not hold back and laughed, and said to Qiao Xuan: "See, I knew A'Liang would say that."
When Sheng Yan saw that Luo Keke was also buying his clothes, he couldn't help but ask, "Why is it that you always buy it for me?
Luo Keke held his arm and said: "My clothes are already forming a mountain. Let's go, how about we go for coffee?" Luo Keke asked Qiao Xuan.
The four of them walked out and bumped into Xu Yi. Xu Yi immediately greeted them: "Young Master Liang, Boss Qiao."
"Xu Yi?" Qiao Xuan looked at him in shock, "Didn't you go back home?"
Xu Yi replied woodenly: "Not yet, I'll be leaving in a while, so I came over to buy some things for my family."
Sheng Liang took out a gold card and gave it to him: "Go home after buying it, help me greet your family."
Xu Yi looked at him and nodded: "Thank you, Young Master Liang."
After separating with Xu Yi, they walked out of the shopping mall and went to a coffee shop to have a coffee.
They were sitting next to the window, and the glass was already pasted with pictures of the New Year. When Qiao Xuan inadvertently looked outside, she saw a man in a black hat looking at them from not too far away, and when she turned her gaze, that man had immediately walked away.
Qiao Xuan was suddenly afraid, and unconsciously grabbed onto Sheng Liang's arm.
"What's wrong?" Sheng Liang asked softly when he saw her pale face.
Qiao Xuan didn't dare to look and only said softly, "Earlier, I saw someone watching us from the outside."
Sheng Liang's eyes darkened, he turned to look outside, but as people walked in, he could no longer see the person Qiao Xuan was talking about.
However, this matter had definitely affected Qiao Xuan's mood. Sheng Liang didn't want her to force him, so he sent her home early.
Qiao Xuan sat on the bedside, Sheng Liang poured her a cup of water and asked: "Are you feeling better now?"
Qiao Xuan nodded. Honestly speaking, when she was on the road, her heart was still beating fast, and she felt a chill down her spine. Only after returning home did she feel much better.
"Don't go out for the next few days. If you need anything, just tell me. I'll send it over to you." Sheng Liang ruffled her hair. Seeing that she was still in a state of shock, he could not help but feel his heart ache.
"I know." Qiao Xuan held Sheng Liang's hand and said, "You have to be careful, that person might be after you, and now that Luo Jie is not here, you have to be careful."
"Yes." Sheng Liang gave her a comforting look, "I'll be going back first, I'll come back tomorrow."
Qiao Xuan was reluctant, but he could only nod his head: "When you get home, give me a call."
Sheng Liang promised as he stood up and walked out. When Qiao Xuan heard him say goodbye to his family, he closed the door and left.
Fortunately, in the following few days, nothing had happened, and Sheng Liang still came to visit Qiao Xuan in the name of eating breakfast. The two of them were already so happy that they were almost unable to separate.
They spent New Year's Eve together, just like all the other families. They ate dinner, packed dumplings, and watched the Spring Festival Gala. When the clock struck twelve, they said "Happy New Year" to each other.
They stood on the balcony and Sheng Liang hugged Qiao Xuan from behind as he muttered to him, "This is the first time I feel that I'm living such a real life. In the past, whether it was my birthday or the new year, I was the only one who lived."
Birthday and Chinese New Year were festivals that ordinary people would have, but to Sheng Liang, it was just a noun. Thinking back to how he had been like this for so many years, Qiao Xuan felt his heart ache.
"Don't worry, I will be with you for every holiday in the future." Qiao Xuan grabbed his hand and said with certainty.
Sheng Liang did not say anything, and only hugged her tighter.
Qiao Xuan did not mention the matter of her relatives to Sheng Liang. She did not want Sheng Liang to be surrounded by a group of people who even asked all sorts of questions.
Every day, she would hear all sorts of voices, and would not bother to call Sheng Liang. Only at night, when they would send messages to each other, but she was too tired and fell asleep after just a few words.
So she didn't know that Sheng Liang had a cold at home. If she didn't want to give him a surprise and suddenly go to his villa, she wouldn't have noticed it at all.
When Qiao Xuan entered, the Commander was playing in the living room by himself. When he saw her, he ran over as soon as he heard her, acting like a child who hadn't seen her mother for a long time, acting coquettishly on top of her.
Sheng Liang heard the sound of someone coming down the stairs, but stopped at the end of the stairs: "Why are you here, you're not busy?"
Seeing that his face did not look good, and even coughed lightly when he spoke, Qiao Xuan immediately walked over: "Did you catch a cold? Why are you not telling me?"
"It's fine. Just some medicine will do." Sheng Liang dodged to the side a little, "Don't get so close to me, it will spread to you."
Qiao Xuan did not care about what he said. Standing in front of him, she reached out and touched his forehead: "There's no fever, it should just be an ordinary cold. Have you eaten?"
She frowned as she pulled Sheng Liang onto the sofa and laid him down. After covering him with a blanket, she turned and walked towards the kitchen: "I'll go cook some porridge for you."
When Qiao Xuan finished cooking the porridge, put it into the small bowl and took it out, he saw that Sheng Liang had actually fallen asleep.
Qiao Xuan caressed his hair. Although she could not bear to do it, she woke him up, "The porridge is ready, please drink a little."
Sheng Liang's expression was somewhat haggard, he slowly sat up, but he did not receive the bowl that Qiao Xuan had passed to him: "Feed me."
Qiao Xuan was startled and reacted. She scooped a spoonful and blew on it, feeling that it was not hot anymore, then she put it near his lips.
"Not in this way." Sheng Liang looked at her, suddenly grabbed her waist and brought her into his embrace, asking softly, "Are you afraid of infection?"
Qiao Xuan did not understand what he meant, so he did not reply.
Sheng Liang said: "Then let's share the hardships."
After not seeing Qiao Xuan for a few days, he had endured too much. Now that she was in front of him, he had no way to control his thoughts towards her.
He drank the congee that Qiao Xuan had fed him, then kissed her and slowly slid the congee in his mouth into hers. He also pressed the tip of his tongue against her teeth, forcing her to swallow.
