Translator: Henyee  Editor: Henyee

Tang Xi took Chen Ziyan to the old house for dinner. Chen Ziyan felt at ease in the beginning, but when she saw that there were so many people present, she started to feel intimidated. She tugged on Tang Xi’s arm and said, “May I wait for you in the car? There are so many people in your family…” She had thought it was just a common meal, but she didn’t expect there to be so many people here!

And… there were also so many handsome men… Seeing three handsome men standing together and chatting, Chen Ziyan suddenly felt envious of Xiao Rou who had so many brothers. It was no wonder Xiao Rou was indifferent to Ning Ke, and other handsome boys in school. There were already so many handsome men in her family! Seeing her handsome brothers every day, She must have been immune to the charm of handsome men. She wouldn’t be attracted by a man so easily.

“It’s alright. Today we move back to our old house, so we’ll have dinner together. Come on, let me introduce you to my grandpa.” Chen Ziyan was her only friend in the school. Both her and her mother were very friendly to her, so Tang Xi was willing to do more for Chen Ziyan as a reward for what Mrs. Chen had done for her. Besides, Chen Ziyan was truly an adorable girl.

Hearing that Tang Xi was going to introduce her grandpa to her, Chen Ziyan knew she couldn’t refuse, so she followed Tang Xi in. Tang Xi led Chen Ziyan up to Grandpa Xiao and the latter greeted Grandpa Xiao sweetly. Grandpa Xiao liked this cute girl. At this time, Xiao Hongli came back. When he saw Tang Xi, he cracked a big smile and came up to her, saying, “Oh, my baby girl! I haven’t seen you for a long time! Come on, let me take a look at you!”

Yang Jingxian had told him on the phone how Tang Xi would address them in future, and he had no problem with it. No matter daddy, dad or father, it had the same meaning. He didn’t mind how Tang Xi addressed him.

Xiao Hongyi was a bit jealous when he saw the two of them were so intimate. He frowned and called to Tang Xi, “Rourou, I’ve prepared you a red pocket. Come here.”

Xiao Hongli grabbed Tang Xi’s arm, raised his chin, and squinted at Xiao Hongyi, asking, “A red pocket? Brother, if there’s not a Black Card inside, you’d better not give it to Rourou!”

Xiao Hongyi glared at Xiao Hongli, quietly put the red pocket containing a golden card into his pocket and said to Tang Xi, “I’ll give you a Black Card some other day.”

“Dad, so now you can only see your baby girl, and can’t see your baby boys, right? How can you just ignore us?” Xiao Jing walked over to them holding a glass of juice, raised his eyebrows and looked at Tang Xi as he asked her in a low voice, “Do I look handsome today?”

Tang Xi gave him a thumbs-up. “You look dazzling today.”

Everyone was talking to Tang Xi and Chen Ziyan was standing by herself, alone, in embarrassment. Just then, Xiao Yan who was answering a call came over. When he walked past Chen Ziyan, he stopped and asked her gently, “Are you Rourou’s friend?”

Chen Ziyan looked up only to see a super handsome man was speaking to her. She blushed, blinked and nodded with evident enthusiasm, saying, “Yes, hi.”

Xiao Yan nodded and took a look at Tang Xi, saying with a smile, “I’m Rourou’s eldest brother, Xiao Yan. Thank you for taking care of Rourou in school. You must be her good friend since she has brought you home. Make yourself at home.”

“Thank you.” Chen Ziyan nodded vigorously again. Oh, Xiao Rou’s brother was so nice. She had almost fallen in love with him!

Xiao Yan smiled at Chen Ziyan and turned to leave. At this time, Tang Xi came back and called to him, “Yan, this is Chen Ziyan, my classmate, and she is also Mrs. Chen’s daughter. Her mother helped us in City W, remember?”

“Mrs. Chen?” Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows. He had no impression on Chen Ziyan, but he did remember Mrs. Chen in City W. They caught Lin Jiao thanks to Mrs. Chen.

Chen Ziyan smiled shyly, “Glad to meet you.” Seeing Xiao Yan’s look, Chen Ziyan suddenly felt a bit ashamed of her parents’ occupation. If only her parents were not engaged in the underworld business, or she herself had a decent job.

So she secretly made a decision in her heart.

“By the way, Rourou, I’m going to The Queen. I’ll go with you later.” Just then, Xiao Jing came over, put a hand on Tang Xi’s shoulder and then said in a low voice, “Someone said he would go to your company tonight to guard you, so I think it’s necessary for me to go there too.”

He spoke in a voice that only he and Tang Xi could hear. Tang Xi blinked and looked at Xiao Jing, asking, “Aren’t you busy?” As far as she knew, he was so busy recently that he didn’t even have time to sleep. Why did he suddenly have the time to accompany her to work overtime?

It didn’t make sense!

“Because someone has come to help us, so I don’t have to be so busy. You know what, Qiao Liang is worried that he might lose his girlfriend.” Xiao Jing gloated.

The corner of Tang Xi’s eyes twitched. If she had known Qiao Liang would go to her company, she wouldn’t have invited Ziyan there. If Ziyan knew that Qiao Liang was her boyfriend, she would be shocked…

However, what you didn’t want would come the fastest. After dinner, Xiao Yan and Xiao Sa went to their companies respectively to work overtime, Xiao Jing, Tang Xi and Chen Ziyan took the same car to go to Tang Xi’s company. When Tang Xi got out of the car, Qiao Liang just happened to arrive at the same time. It had recently been cold but Tang Xi only wore a thin coat. Noticing this, Qiao Liang stared at her sullenly.

Qiao Liang walked up to her and handed her a coat, leaving her no time to refuse, he said, “It’s already November. It’s getting cold. Don’t you feel cold with only that thin coat?”

Tang Xi blinked and nodded with a straight face.

Chen Ziyan had been stunned. She hadn’t seen Qiao Liang in person and had only seen him in newspapers before. God, was she really standing in front of the famous Prince Charming Qiao?

If Xiao Yan was a nice, genteel and attractive man to her, then Qiao Liang was simply a god to her! He could only be appreciated from a distance but not touched blasphemously!
