Xiao Hongli still couldn’t believe it since he heard the truth last night. His daughter was… That was really unbelievable! However, recalling the huge changes that had happened to Xiao Rou, he knew what his wife told him last night was right.

Otherwise, a 23-year-old young woman wouldn’t be so decisive and good at business affairs. Now everything was explained.

It was just that… Xiao Rou was really a poor girl.

Thinking of this, Xiao Hongli called Tang Xi. The latter was still having a meeting with Xiao Yan in the Xiao’s Group. Seeing the caller ID, she raised her eyebrows, said ‘excuse me’ to the others and went out to answer the call. “Hello, Dad.”

Tang Xi usually called Xiao Hongli ‘Dad’.

Hearing Tang Xi’s soft voice, Xiao Hongyi smiled. He got into his car as he said, “I just watched the news. I’m proud of you, my daughter. You’ve done a great job.”

Tang Xi paused. She hesitated and asked in a low voice, “You know about my real identity?”

“Yes, you silly girl, I guess it must be very tiring for you to keep hiding your real strength when you live with us?”

Tang Xi shook her head. “No, I’m very happy to live with you. I just didn’t expect you could still accept me…”

“No matter what happens, you will always be our child.” Xiao Hongli said with a smile, “Besides, you saved Xiao Yao’s life. We could even accept it when you said you are a little fairy. Why can’t we accept it when you say you are Tang Xi?”

“Sorry, Dad, I should have told you earlier.” Tang Xi said guiltily.

Xiao Hongli plugged in his earphones and released the brake to start the car. “Don’t keep it from us if you have any problems in the future. A family is stronger than you alone. Besides, you have me behind you. Why didn’t you turn to me for help? Don’t forget that I have some power in City A.”

Tang Xi grunted and felt warm in her heart. “I know, Dad. I’m having a meeting. Let’s have dinner some other day.”

After hanging up the call, Tang Xi went back to the meeting room to continue with the meeting. He Wanzhou had been paying attention to Tang Xi. Seeing her come back, he gave her a bright smile and asked with jealousy, “Did you just receive a call from your boyfriend? Why are you smiling so sweetly?”

Tang Xi smiled and shook her head. “My old sweetheart.”

“Old sweetheart!” He Wanzhou widened his eyes and pointed to Qiao Liang. “Isn’t he your old sweetheart?”

Tang Xi, “…”

Qiao Liang, “…”

Xiao Yan, “…”

Xiao Yao, “…”

Xiao Jing, “Haha… what are you bullsh*tting?”

Xiao Sa, “Nonsense! That’s totally nonsense!”

Qiao Liang coldly stared at him and He Wanzhou immediately shrank his neck. “You two used to be classmates, weren’t you?! It’s just a joke! Don’t take it so seriously!”

Tang Xi smiled. “That call was from my Grandpa. Now let’s go on.”

Soon they forgot the embarrassment caused by He Wanzhou’s silly joke and continued with the meeting…

On the other side of things, Qin Xinying looked timidly at Qin Yue who was sitting on the sofa and remained silent, and she said to him respectfully, “Did Tang Xi keep looking for the whereabouts of her aunt as ordered by Tang Zhenhua?”

And then she murmured, “No wonder Tang Xi would know Xiao Rou… I’m afraid Tang Xi has known for a long time that Xiao Rou was her cousin, so she deliberately approached her. Perhaps it was Tang Xi who instructed Xiao Rou to do those things against us. Otherwise, how could a countryside girl like Xiao Rou be so smart?”

Qin Xinying coldly glanced at her and asked, “Why didn’t you tell me earlier since you had suspected it? When did Xiao Rou come to know Tang Xi?”

Qin Xinying shook her head. “I have no idea…”

If she had known that, she wouldn’t have picked on Xiao Rou in the name of Tang Xi. If the two already knew each other, didn’t she look like a clown back then?”

And Tang Xi… maybe she had given up on Qiao Liang, so she didn’t care about him at all. She must have been very happy seeing her jump around like a clown!

Qin Yue squinted at Qin Xinying and sneered. “They think they can beat me together? They are underestimating me!”

Qin Xinying’s eyes lit up when she heard this. She hurriedly asked, “Grandpa, do you have a way to solve them?”

“Yes, but I’ll save it as my trump card!” Qin Yue said coldly, “Let’s go back home and work out a solution. Let’s see who will win in the end!”

Relieved to hear that, Qin Xinying smiled and went to pack up. Suddenly something occurred to her and she looked back at Qin Yue. “Grandpa, Grandaunt…”

“Put this matter aside for now.” Qin Yue frowned as he thought of his sister who he hadn’t seen in decades.

Qin Luo was his only sister and the two got along well since they were kids. Although his mother died in that accident… This was all Tang Zhenhua’s fault. His sister was not to blame at all!

Qin Xinying raised her eyebrows. She didn’t expect that stupid woman, Xiao Jinning, was actually her cousin… It was like a drama!

When Qin Xinying finished packing, the two of them were about to leave, when they suddenly spotted Tang Xi standing at the door. Qin Xinying frowned. “Why are you here?”

Tang Xi took a look at Qin Xinying, then ignored her and looked straight at Qin Yue. “It seems that I arrived just in time. Otherwise, Mr. Qin, you would have gone.”

Qin Yue looked coldly at her. “I have nothing to say to you.”

Tang Xi raised her eyebrows. “But I have much to say to you. Don’t you want to know your sister’s whereabouts?”

Qin Yue took a breath and looked coldly at Tang Xi. “What do you want?”

Tang Xi turned her eyes to Qin Xinying, and the latter raised her chin at her and said arrogantly, “I’m my grandpa’s granddaughter. He won’t mind I stay here!”

Tang Xi looked at Qin Yue with a smile and he said coldly to Qin Xinying, “Wait for me outside.”

Qin Xinying paused and then glared at Tang Xi before she turned to leave.
