Take Care Of Your Self

The next morning Tang Xiao got ready for work but before he left he went to Qingxia's room,  it has become a routine for him to always check up on her both in the morning before leaving for work and in the evening before going to bed and he was enjoying every bit of it.

Getting to her room,  he knock gently before he heard a faint 'come in'.

Pushing the door gently he saw Qingxia seated on the bed while Tangning was still lying down even though she was not sleeping anymore

"Are you ready to leave? "  Qingxia asked.

"Yes" he replied.

Turning to Tangning he asked, "How are you?."

"Fine."

Turning to Qinxia he said "I will be leaving, don't over sleep,  make sure to grab an early breakfast."

She smiled at him while nodding.

Just then he turned around and left the room.

But just before he could leave the house Qingxia ran towards him immediately.

"What's wrong? "  he asked.

"uhm...."  she made the sound while scratching her head.

Tang xiao found it amusing so he chuckled.

"uhm..... What do you want to tell me? "  he asked making fun of her.

"Sorry to bother you,but (she paused)  Tang ning is leaving today "

He nodded and she continued.

"You know she just left the club,  even though she's not saying anything, I know she does not have any money on her, neither does she have any one to go back to, so....., I was thinking maybe you....c-c-could h-help her with some m-money"  she stuttered.

Tang xiao immediately turned to his assistant who was standing by his side and his assistant immediately understood.

Opening the bag his assistant brought out a bundle of money,  Qingxia did not know how much it is,  but by the size she knew it was more than enough.

The smile plastered on her face was enough for him,  he was glad that this little lady was happy.

"Thank you."  she said, just as she turned around about to walk back upstairs, he grabbed her by her wrist pulled her towards him and hugged her.

She was shocked with his move,  but she didn't try to move out of his embrace rather she stayed still.

"Take care of yourself."  he whispered in her ears.

She didn't answer with her mouth,  afraid that if she opens her mouth to speak,  her voice will give her away,  so she just nodded.

He held her by her neck ,leaned down and place a kiss on her forehead.

He didn't move away immediately but stayed still, allowing his lips to linger on her fore head for a while.

When he finally pulled away, he scanned her face allowing his gaze to linger on her lips, knowing it was not the right time, he forced himself to pull away but was happy to know that his touch has an effect on her.

And immediately he left the house without taking a second glance back.

As Qingxia subconsciously lifted her hand to her forehead, she could still feel his lips there.

When she finally pulled out of her thoughts she made her way upstairs.

So Shi Qinxia and Tang ning quickly freshened up and went downstairs.

After breakfast Tang ning got ready to leave.

"So where will you be going? "  Shi Qinxia asked.

"Duoyishu"   She answered    "That's where I was born and brought up, I don't have any other place, that's the only place I can go back to and besides my parents have a house there."

"Okay."

"I hope you can visit me someday"  Tang ning said feeling sad.

"I hope so too."

Qingxia gave the money Tang xiao gave her to Tang ning.

"You can have this, for your transportation and to take care of yourself until you are settled."

"Oh my God , thank you so much."

"It's not me you should thank,  it Tang xiao that gave it to you not me

"

"But still, he wouldn't have given that to me if not because of you " she replied  "Thank you ."

Tang ning and Qinxia hugged each other tightly.

"I will miss you" Qinxia said.

"Same here too"

"Thank you, for everything,  for taking care of me when I was in the club,  for making plans for me to leave,  because without that plan I wouldn't have met Tang xiao,  thank you for trying to see me and to know how I am doing before leaving. To me you are not just a friend but a sister,  you have looked after me just the way an elder sister should,  thank you "  before she knew it she was already crying.

Tang ning lifted her hand and wipe off her tears before patting her head.

"I'm glad I was able to take care of a princess like you"  Tang ning replied with a smile.

And they hugged each other again, when they finally pulled away from each other they said their goodbyes and Tang ning left.
