Qiao Xuan took off the painting from the easel and handed it over to Sheng Qian: "This is for you, consider this as your last gift to me."
Sheng Qian laughed, then turned the scroll and placed it inside the painting, "I really like this present."
Qiao Xuan looked at the time, it was almost noon, and said to Sheng Qian: "Go eat, I'll treat you."
"Yes." Sheng Qian smiled, but it was not in his eyes.
They went into a small restaurant, took a seat, and the waiter came to order. Qiao told her to be modest, looked at the menu, chose a few bland dishes, then ordered drinks and beer.
In this kind of small place, it was naturally impossible to compare to Sheng Qian's usual entry and exit. Qiao Xuan said apologetically: "If you're not used to it, we can change places."
Sheng Qian shook his head: "When I was in Tibet, my food and drinks were the same as the locals, this is nothing."
When she talked about him going to Tibet, Qiao Xuan unconsciously thought about the scripture he gave her and the poem that was written inside.
She understood his deep feelings, but she could not return a thousandth of his feelings.
"Sheng Qian, actually I have something that I want to tell you." Qiao Xuan mustered a lot of courage before he finally spoke of the beginning.
But Sheng Qian actually laughed and said: "I know what you want to say, so, you don't need to say anything. I am very satisfied with my current life, and will not force anything."
This trip to Tibet, Sheng Qian felt as if he had been reborn. Qiao Xuan was surprised.
But this was also good. Time had always been the best healing medicine for him. Once he could one day walk out of this relationship, it would be his new life.
Everyone had their own way of cultivation, and no one could interfere with it.
They were eating, and a person walked past them, probably because he had drunk some alcohol and was walking left and right, and when he walked in front of them, he bumped into Qiao Xuan.
Qiao Xuan reached out to push him away, but he was too heavy, so no matter what, he could not push him away.
From the moment Sheng Qian saw this person collide with Qiao Xuan, he had already stood up. He reached out and pulled this person aside, then asked Qiao Xuan: "Are you alright?"
Qiao Xuan shook his head, just as he was about to ask Sheng Qian to sit, he saw a few men who were living in poverty walking over. Without saying a word, they pushed Sheng Qian down to the ground and shouted, "Damn, you don't want to live anymore, you dare to push our boss!"
Seeing that the other party had so many people, Qiao Xuan immediately pushed their hands away, wanting to help Sheng Qian up: "Sorry, we were being rude, I apologize to you, please let him go."
"Aiyo, this little girl is not bad," the man with a mustache laughed. Then he got the drunk man to help him over and asked, "Boss, how do you think we should deal with this?"
The man looked at Qiao Xuan with hazy, drunken eyes and pointed at her. Sleep with me, man... Throw him out after a round of beating! "
"Alright!" The bearded man replied.
Just as he was about to order his men to do as his boss said, Sheng Qian suddenly pushed those people away and stood up. He opened his arms in front of Qiao Xuan and blocked: "Let's see who dares to move!"
They did not expect Sheng Qian to suddenly make such a move, and without further ado, they started to attack.
Sheng Qian did not give them a second chance. He had Qiao Xuan protected at the corner behind him the entire time, preventing anyone from passing through him.
The other customers had already dodged them, only leaving them behind in the restaurant. The tables and stools were all used as weapons, smashing towards Sheng Qian non-stop.
Sheng Qian was afraid that he would hurt Qiao Xuan, so at the back, he did not even bother to retaliate anymore, he only hugged Qiao Xuan tightly in his arms, smashing the chairs onto his body.
Qiao Xuan could only hear the roars of those people and the muffled sound of things hitting Sheng Qian's body, but Sheng Qian just continued to hug him, not saying a word.
A familiar voice said something, and gradually, the sounds of punches landing on Sheng Qian seemed to have disappeared. Qiao Xuan tried to let go of Sheng Qian's body, only to see his head and hands covered in blood: "Sheng Qian!"
Sheng Qian smiled at her. "I'm fine, just a little dizzy."
As he said that, his body fell to the side, Qiao Xuan immediately supported him, raising his head to look, only to see that among the people fighting with the other people, there was actually Luo Jie, thinking of the voice just now, he immediately understood, Sheng Liang had definitely been protecting her since the beginning.
She called Luo Jie over and had him carry Sheng Qian out of the car. Then, she quickly sent him to the hospital.
Fortunately it was only a superficial wound, and after suturing it, the nurse had given Sheng Qian some anti-inflammatory medicine. He leaned on the bedside, looked at Luo Jie, and said with some dissatisfaction: "Since you're outside, why didn't you come in earlier?"
Luo Jie glanced at Qiao Xuan and explained: "Young Master Liang told me not to get too close, so I didn't dare to follow him in. I don't know what happened inside, and I only found out after customers ran out.
Sheng Qian looked away. It didn't matter if he was injured, but Qiao Xuan was nearly injured.
Seeing his unsightly expression, Qiao Xuan said to him softly, "You should just lie down.
Hearing that Qiao Xuan was so concerned about him, all of the thoughts that Sheng Qian had in his heart disappeared. He looked at her innocently and said, "Help me out."
Qiao Xuan had been scared by the sight of him covered in blood, and thinking that it was all to protect her, she unconsciously started to feel tender towards him.
His body was full of wounds. When Qiao Xuan helped him lie down, they were all very careful.
Luo Jie could see clearly from the side that the injuries on Sheng Qian's body were nothing to a man.
"Young Master Qian, since you're injured like this, should we inform Madam Xun?" Luo Jie deliberately asked.
Seeing that Qiao Xuan also had the same intention, Sheng Qian quickly said: "Please don't tell me.
He begged again and again, so Qiao Xuan didn't let Luo Jie notify him, and planned to take care of him for a night. After all, he did this to protect her.
Luo Jie clearly knew that Sheng Qian did it on purpose, but he couldn't tell Qiao Xuan about it, but he couldn't pretend that he didn't know.
"Miss Qiao, it is not convenient for you to stay here. I will stay behind to take care of Young Master Qian. Please go back and rest." Luo Jie finally thought of a compromise as he smiled and said.
Qiao Xuan was startled, she thought that there were differences between males and females, and there were indeed many inconvenient places, so she said: "Alright, then I will trouble you, Sheng Qian, I will come again tomorrow."
When he came back from Tibet, Sheng Qian really wanted to stay by Qiao Xuan's side without any desire or desire, but when he opened his eyes at the hospital, he saw Qiao Xuan's anxious look for the first time, and all those feelings of unwillingness returned.
He did not want much, he only wanted to make use of this opportunity to get along with Qiao Xuan by himself. Even if it was just one night, he was satisfied.
