nShe was not a hypocritical person, so she would not falsely tell others that she had forgiven Xiao Jinning. She hated her, resented her and wanted to take revenge on her! She would never keep this from anyone!

nShe thought it was great, because at least the people she cared about knew she wouldn’t let Xiao Jinning get away with it, so she would have no burden doing those things.

nShe believed that those who understood her would always understand her.

nAs the car stopped at a traffic light intersection, Xiao Yao tilted his head, stared at Tang Xi and sighed. “Whatever decision you make, I’ll stand by your side.”

nTang Xi smiled and said, “Yao, thank you.”

nXiao Yao smiled and didn’t speak.

nTang Xi looked out of the window and stopped talking too. Only when she had avenged Xiao Rou could she return to the capital and avenge herself without feeling any burden.

nBefore, she had thought she could directly go back to the capital and take revenge on those people, but now she found that she couldn’t do it without any reserve, because there were people she cared about here.

nShe cared about Xiao Hongli and his family, Grandpa Xiao, as well as Qiao Liang…

nShe didn’t want to leave any regrets between Qiao Liang and her. She didn’t care what others would think, but she wanted to let Qiao Liang know that she cared about him.

nWhen they arrived at the school, Xiao Yao told Tang Xi that he would go to the capital for a week. If she ran into any problems, she could call him, but of course, she’d better not.

nTang Xi felt a little melancholy hearing him mention the capital, but something suddenly occurred to her and she asked, “Yao, what are you going to do in the capital?”

nXiao Yao paused, apparently not having expected her to ask this question. He thought for a while and then said, “It’s a personal affair. Maybe this trip will only lead to vexation, but I still want to go there.”

nTang Xi’s eyes were sparkling. “Because of a girl?”

nGazing at Tang Xi’s face, Xiao Yao was in a daze. After quite a while, he shook his head, rubbed Tang Xi’s hair and smiled as he said, “I completed high school in the capital. This time I’m going there to attend an event of Empire High School.”

nTang Xi paused before asking in surprise, “Yao, you used to be a student of Empire High School?”

nShe had never known that Xiao Yao studied at Empire High School, but with the background of the Xiao Family, it would be easy for Xiao Yao to enter there.

nXiao Yao had no intention of keeping it from Tang Xi. He nodded and looked at his watch. When he found it was still early, he said with a smile, “You know my identity is special. I needed to receive training as early as in high school and the training base was in the capital.”

nTang Xi didn’t expect to hear about Xiao Yao’s past—so it turned out that he had been selected when he was a kid. She wondered if Xiao Yao was the kind of super agent seen in movies.

nAt this thought, Tang Xi’s eyes grew even brighter. “So Yao, you decided to study in Empire High School for the convenience of training?”

nXiao Yao nodded. A trace of a smile flashed across his face and he said, “You remind me of a younger schoolmate of mine. I remember she was as cheerful as you.”

nExcitement flashed in Tang Xi’s eyes. “Oh? Yao, are you going to that school for this little schoolmate this time?”

nSeeing the excitement in Tang Xi’s eyes, Xiao Yao’s eyes gradually dimmed. He paused and said, “She, maybe… Forget it. You’re still a little girl. How can you gossip about your brother? Go to class. Don’t waste time. Do you remember that bet you made with Sa?”

nSeeing that he refused to tell her more, Tang Xi was greatly disappointed. She waved her hand, bid goodbye to Xiao Yao and walked into the school.

nLooking at Tang Xi’s receding figure, Xiao Yao frowned. Why was he so nice to Xiao Rou? He was a little confused before, but now he was not confused at all, because he saw the shadow of that person from her. The two of them were so similar no matter in shape or character. Even though that figure had been engraved in his memory of high school, it was not vague at all.

nThinking of the reports made by his subordinates yesterday, Xiao Yao felt deeply disturbed. He was going to the capital. In any case, he wouldn’t accept the fact unless he found proof.

nIt wasn’t until Tang Xi’s figure disappeared from his sight that he opened the door of his car and made to leave.

nPerhaps, if she was still alive, he would have taken her as his sister. But would he still have the chance?

nAfter Xiao Yao left, Tang Xi slowly walked towards the school. She wore a frown as she stared in the direction where Xiao Yao had disappeared to. The moment she stepped into the school gate, some of the memories buried deep in her mind suddenly popped up like a movie.

nIt turned out the past had been sealed for so long. The meticulous Brother Xiao had changed a lot and become her brother.

n‘Is Brother Xiao going to the capital for me?’

nTang Xi frowned at this thought. It was obvious that he liked that younger schoolmate a lot. If that person was really her, what should she do?

nTang Xi turned and walked into the school, praying that the person in Yao’s memory was not Tang Xi—definitely not Tang Xi.

nTang Xi lowered her head and walked to her classroom. During many a sleepless nights, she had wondered why she ended up as Xiao Rou. She hadn’t figured it out until yesterday when she suddenly realized that perhaps she came here to settle Tang Xi’s karma, to let those who missed her to forget her and let those whom she loved to stay with her.

nAfter thinking about it for a whole period of class, Tang Xi still hadn’t figured out why she was so disturbed. Since she was Xiao Rou now and couldn’t change back to Tang Xi for now, then she should just act as Xiao Rou. No matter who Xiao Yao liked, she only needed to be Xiao Yao’s sister.

nAfter telling herself this, Tang Xi found that she was relieved. She could concentrate on the contents of the class and even solve several math problems on the blackboard.

nTime flew. One week later, Tang Xi’s classmates had become used to her stunningly beautiful face and stopped staring at her both in and after class. She felt really relieved.

nHe Wanning called her on Friday to tell her that their company had officially cancelled the contract with Xiao Jinning.

nOn Saturday morning, as soon as Tang Xi got up, she was surrounded by Xiao Sa and Xiao Jing. They insisted on accompanying her to OLS Company to sign the contract.

nTang Xi looked at them helplessly, saying, “I’m just going to sign a contract. Is it necessary to make such a fuss?”

nXiao Sa frowned and replied, “What do you mean by ‘just going to sign a contract’? This is a contract worth three million Yuan! Rourou, this is your first bucket of gold. Of course we’ll take it seriously, and this is also the first endorsement you took from Xiao Jinning, so we have to take it seriously!”
