Except for Xiao Yao and Tang Zhenhua, the others thought Tang Xi was so angry because of Lin Ru’s matter alone and so they all fell silent.

Soon they reached the Lin’an Hospital, and the two doctors, Xiao Hongyi and Xiao Yan were waiting for them. Xiao Yao pulled the car over and Xiao Yan and Xiao Hongyi immediately opened the car door, Xiao Hongyi carried Lin Ru up and gently put her in a wheelchair, and the doctors soon pushed Lin Ru into the hospital.

Tang Zhenhua noticed that Xiao Hongyi really cared for Lin Ru. Obviously, he loved his wife very much. Tang Zhenhua was very glad to see this. Tang Xi looked back at him and nodded at him. Then she looked at Tang Zhong and then at Tang Zhenhua, saying, “Let’s go in.”

They waited outside the emergency room, and after a while, the doctors came out and told them that Lin Ru was alright. She just went into shock because she was too agitated. They were all relieved to hear this.

After sending Lin Ru to her ward, they all waited for Lin Ru to wake up. Yang Jingxian secretly tugged on Tang Xi’s arm, and the latter looked back at her. Yang Jingxian smiled at Tang Xi. “Rourou, let’s have a talk.”

Tang Xi pursed her lips and knew that she could no longer keep her secret from Yang Jingxian. Although Yang Jingxian looked gentle and never pried into others’ privacy, she was actually smart. Besides, she didn’t want to keep Yang Jingxian in the dark, so she nodded. “Okay.”

The others focused their attention on Lin Ru, so except Xiao Yao, no one else noticed Yang Jingxian and Tang Xi left the ward. Seeing they leave, Xiao Yao followed them out.

Tang Xi and Yang Jingxian went to the rooftop that was a garden with chairs. The doctors in the hospital could take rest here but outsiders were not allowed to come here. Lin’an Hospital was owned by the Xiao Family, so they could come up here.

The doctors who were already on the rooftop all left when they saw Yang Jingxian and Tang Xi come up. After they left, Yang Jingxian went to the edge of the rooftop and looked at the view. Tang Xi looked at her back, pursed her lips and walked up to her. “Mommy, you have a question to ask me, don’t you?”

Hearing her question, Yang Jingxian pursed her lips and looked back at Tang Xi. She frowned and sighed. “Rourou, you have experienced a lot more than ordinary girls, so I treat you more carefully than I treat your brothers. I’m afraid of opening your old wounds, so I don’t dare ask you about your secret. But now I’m so worried about you that I can’t turn a blind eye to what happened to you anymore. Are you keeping anything from me…”

Tang Xi felt warm in her heart when she heard Yang Jingxian’s words. She thought Mommy would blame her for keeping her secret from her… but it turned out that Mommy was just worried about her.

Yang Jingxian looked at Tang Xi and sighed. “Do your brothers know your secret?”

Although Tang Xi didn’t want to betray her brothers, she didn’t want to lie to Yang Jingxian.

So Tang Xi nodded. “Yes except Xiao Yan, Yao, Sa and Jing already know of my secret. They just covered it up for me.”

“Well…” Yang Jingxian looked deeply at Tang Xi. “Do you mind telling me your secret?”

“Mommy, will you be scared of me?” Tang Xi looked at Yang Jingxian and pursed her lips. “Can you really accept me if you know my story?”

“I even accepted you when you said you were a little fairy. Why can’t I accept other secrets of yours?” Yang Jingxian gently hugged Tang Xi and said, “I can accept you even if you say you are a ghost and Rourou is possessed by you.”

Tang Xi was amused by Yang Jingxian’s words. She rubbed her eyes and hugged Yang Jingxian. “Mommy, let me tell you about my story.”

Yang Jingxian nodded, but when Tang Xi was about to speak, she suddenly pushed Tang Xi aside. Tang Xi cast a questioning look at her. She signaled Tang Xi to wait for a while and went to check whether there was anyone on the rooftop before she locked the door. Knowing that she was making sure no one was eavesdropping, Tang Xi felt warmth welling up in her heart. Yang Jingxian said with a smile, “Although Rourou is a special girl, this fact can only be known to us.”

Since Tang Xi saved Xiao Yao’s life, she had truly taken Tang Xi as her own daughter.

Tang Xi beckoned Yang Jingxian to sit beside her. “Mommy, what do you want to know?”

“Where did you find these newspapers? It seems that you collected them.” Although some people liked collecting old newspaper, she didn’t think Tang Xi had this hobby.

So this was really questionable.

Tang Xi took a breath and looked at Yang Jingxian. “That’s because I’m Tang Xi. Tang Zhenhua is my grandfather and he gave these newspapers to me.

Yang Jingxian gaped and looked at Tang Xi in shock. Tang Xi pursed her lips. “That Tang Xi who appeared recently is actually me.”

“How can this be possible?!” Yang Jingxian couldn’t believe what she heard. She shook her head hard. “But you two look completely different. How…”

Tang Xi said, “That’s because I have already died and then I became Xiao Rou.”

Yang Jingxian lunged to her feet and stared at Tang Xi with wide open eyes. “How could it be?! You are still so young!”

Tang Xi took her hand and asked her to calm down. “I had an air crash and fell into the sea. Then the plane exploded and I died with my body falling apart.”

Yang Jingxian suddenly clenched Tang Xi’s hand hard. It hurt but Tang Xi didn’t speak. She just sat there silently and gazed at Yang Jingxian. Tears flew out of Yang Jingxian’s eyes. Knowing she was sad for her, Tang Xi smiled. “When I died, Xiao Rou happened to be murdered by Xiao Jinning. I didn’t know why, but when I opened my eyes. I had already become Xiao Rou. Maybe this was destined.”

She was murdered by Qin Xinying and Xiao Rou was murdered by Xiao Jinning, so she became Xiao Rou and came back for revenge.
