“We haven’t found out about that bodyguard’s identity. I’ve searched for that man in the intelligence network, but there isn’t any information about him.” The woman looked a little ashamed and she said, “I’m sorry I let you down, Boss. I…”
“You’ll be able to find that bodyguard by following that woman. This is France, not China! If you still can’t find Lov tomorrow, kidnap that woman and bring her to me!” The old man’s eyes had a cold gleam, and he said, “Kloss Jones was killed by a Chinese man, and I haven’t avenged him! Now Let me send this woman to accompany my brother in the afterlife!”
The woman nodded. “Okay, Boss.”

Tang Xi was casually peeling lobsters for herself. After she was full, she curled her lips and glanced at Qiao Liang who was slowly eating lobsters. She then pursed her lips and snorted, saying, “I’m going to the show field by myself! I don’t want you to go with me!”
With that, she lunged to her feet, went into her bedroom and changed her clothes before she walked out and slammed the door shut. Qiao Liang took a look at Tang Xi, and shook his head helplessly. He glanced at the lobster shells that Tang Xi put on the table and cleaned them up; he then washed the dishes and followed Tang Xi out. When he walked towards the elevator, he saw Tang Xi standing there. He raised his eyebrows with a smile. Tang Xi curled her lips, took a look at him, and then looked away. Qiao Liang looked at her and didn’t know what to say.
This girl had zero safety awareness. She had no idea how vulnerable she was no matter if it was when she went to Provence to save them or yesterday night. He guessed that she fell into a coma because she used her supernatural abilities. She never took her own health seriously. If he couldn’t make her learn a lesson this time, she would continue to be like this!
He thought she had realized what she did wrong after last night, but he didn’t expect she just gave him such a “letter of apology”…
He couldn’t continue to indulge her. What if she encounters danger when he wasn’t by her side in the future? Could she still escape safe and sound? Qiao Liang dared not imagine what would have happened if he was not with her last night.
The two of them entered the elevator silently. Tang Xi looked at herself in the mirror and looked at Qiao Liang every now and then, but Qiao Liang didn’t look at her but played with his cellphone. Tang Xi frowned and pouted. “Why didn’t this man apologize to her? Was that so difficult for him to do? He was angry at her? She was angry too! She didn’t do anything wrong. Why did she have to write a letter of apology? Did he think he was her teacher? Even her teacher wasn’t as annoying as him! At least, her teacher wouldn’t make her write a letter of apology…”
“Learn how to write a decent composition when you go back.” Qiao Liang suddenly said coldly, “Then write me a letter of apology again.”
“Why?” Tang Xi glared at Qiao Liang and said angrily, “No! I don’t want to write a letter of apology! You can write one yourself, but I’m not going to write it! I didn’t do anything wrong! Why must I write that!” The elevator reached the first floor and she rushed out angrily.
Qiao Liang rushed up to grab her hand and said sternly, “You think you did nothing wrong? Do you think I just want to force you to write me a letter of apology??”
Tang Xi looked up at Qiao Liang and looked aggrieved, asking, “Yes, you do! And why did you ask me to learn how to write a composition? I’m good at writing compositions, okay? My teacher said that! And I got a high score on written composition! Why did you belittle me? Why do I have to write you a letter of apology? No!”
“Xiao Rou!” Qiao Liang stared coldly at Tang Xi and snapped, “Why have you misread me? I just want you to learn a lesson!”
Tang Xi was startled, as this was the first time Qiao Liang yelled at her since she came back to life. She lost her temper too. She shook off Qiao Liang’s hand and coldly said, “Why should I “learn a lesson”? I didn’t do anything wrong! I think the one who should learn a lesson is you! Don’t think everything you do is right! Let me tell you, I don’t think I was wrong! So I’m not going to write you a letter of apology! If you can’t bear me, you can just go away!”
“Xiao Rou!” Qiao Liang grabbed her hand and stared at her darkly. He narrowed his eyes and said coldly, “Do you know who is that man who attacked you last night?”
“I don’t care!”
“He is Kloss Lov! Young Master of the Kloss Family! A very powerful villain in Paris! They had guns! Do you think you can resist their bullets with your body?”
Tang Xi was surprised to hear that. She didn’t expect that man had such a powerful background, but then she snorted and said unconcerned, “But I remained unscathed, right?”
Qiao Liang held Tang Xi’s shoulder and growled, “That’s because I was with you. What if I weren’t with you? Do you know what will happen to you? I dared not even imagine it, but you looked unconcerned! Do you know what pissed me off? It’s not that you didn’t take the letter of apology seriously, but that you didn’t take your safety seriously!”
Qiao Liang said, then he relaxed his grip on Tang Xi’s hand and walked past Tang Xi. Tang Xi stood there blankly for quite a while before she looked up at Qiao Liang’s back… Did she make Qiao Liang worry about her again…
She was about to catch up with him and apologize to him, when Qiao Liang suddenly turned around and stared at her coldly, saying, “And don’t get above yourself! Do you think I appreciated you for saving me! No! I would be fine even if you didn’t show up that day! I didn’t need you at all…”
Smack…
Tang Xi slapped Qiao Liang hard. She glared at Qiao Liang, snorted and laughed as she said, “Yes, I was being stupid by saving you. You didn’t need me at all. Okay, then get out of my face! I lived without your company for a long time and I’ve got used to that kind of life! I was being stupid worrying about you. I was being stupid trying to save you at the risk of my life! I was being stupid trying my best to keep you from being injured! I… I am being stupid by coming back to you and letting myself be trampled by you like this!”
Tang Xi took a look at Little Five, Little Six and the others who hid in the darkness and dared not come out, held back her tears and said to Qiao Liang who was stunned at her words, “Let’s break up! I’m tired. This time, the one who wants to break up is me.”
