  Hearing Qiao Liang’s words, Tang Xi felt her heart ache. She thought that he must have gotten news of her sending an email to the board of directors, telling them that she was traveling abroad alone, which was why she would not return to China for the time being. He must have located her IP location and thus came to Long Beach.

  She nodded and said, “Okay, we’ll be back at home in a couple of days. Let’s go back to have dinner first. How long have you not eaten for?”


  He was thin before, but now he had become even thinner and was all skin and bones. Her heart twinged at seeing him having become like this.

  Qiao Liang’s eyes lit up at hearing her agree. He led her to the villa as he said, “Okay, let’s go back for dinner.”


  Back at home, Qiao Liang asked Tang Xi to watch TV on the sofa while he went to cook. Little Five and Little Six saw Qiao Liang speaking to thin air: you can watch TV here, and I’ll prepare your favorite seafood dinner for you. The two of them looked at each other in silence and thought to themselves—did Boss go crazy?

  Qiao Liang looked back only to find that the two of them were gaping at him from a corner of the living room, while Little Six was still holding his laptop in his hands. He scowled and asked coldly, “What are you doing here? Go out to work!”


  Qiao Liang thought unhappily that they were really senseless! Didn’t they see his Xixi was here? ( Boxno vel. co m )

  Little Five and Little Six nodded in haste and quickly ran out. They stood in the garden and looked at each other. “Boss seems to have gone insane.”


  “His hallucinating seems to be more severe today.” Little Five looked worried as he said this. “He was okay the day before yesterday, when he would only be in a trance from time to time, but now he seems sure that Miss Tang is around him.”


  Little Six said, “Boss didn’t eat anything for the last two days. He must be too hungry to be sane.”


  Tang Xi came out with the two of them. She listened to their conversation and looked back at Qiao Liang. He behaved as if she were still sitting on the sofa, smiling in that direction as he cooked.

  Tang Xi suddenly realized that what he was seeing was not her at all, but a figment of his own imagination instead, and the words she had spoken just happened to be consistent with his delusion.

  At this thought, Tang Xi was grieved. If he continued like this, he would ruin himself one day!

  She had to find a way to let him know of her existence!

  She rushed in to attract Qiao Liang’s attention, but he could not see her at all. He simply said towards the sofa, “Wait just a moment, the shrimp in scallion sauce and lobsters will be ready soon.”


  Tang Xi tried to grab the cooking tool in his hand, but she could not even touch it. She reached out to knock down the glass on the bar, but no matter how hard she tried, she could not touch the glass……

  It was not going to work. She couldn’t do it. She had to go back to Xiao Rou’s body to get in touch with him again……

  But how could she return?!

  Tang Xi closed her eyes and willed herself to go back, but no matter how hard she tried, when she opened her eyes, she still saw Qiao Liang making food for her in the kitchen. She couldn’t return.

  In Lin’an Hospital of City A, Xiao Sa and Xiao Jing were growing increasingly more agitated. Xiao Yao had woken up and was ceaselessly asking about Xiao Rou, but she was still in a deep coma. Moreover, they could no longer hide this matter from Mom and Dad. They had asked for sick leave for Xiao Rou in school, but the TV commercial was going to be shot on Saturday. Now they didn’t know how to explain things to He Wanning……

  The Xiao Brothers never smoked, but right now in the corridor, Xiao Jing and Xiao Sa both had a cigarette in their mouths with worried looks on their faces. Xiao Jing took a deep drag on the cigarette and said in a low voice, “When I went back home this morning, Mom and Dad asked me again. I don’t think we can keep it from them any longer. Besides, I met Aunt at the door again.”


  Xiao Sa frowned, drew deeply on his cigarette and puffed out the smoke. “We can hardly keep it from Yao too. He’s been asking me whether Rourou had an accident since last night.”


  A nurse came over and warned them not to smoke. The two brothers put out their cigarettes and threw them into the trash can. Just then, the door of a ward opened and the seriously wounded Xiao Yao stepped out. He took a deep look at the two brothers, and asked coldly, “Which ward is Rourou in?”


  Xiao Sa and Xiao Jing looked at each other. Xiao Sa quickly put on a smile, ran over to support Xiao Yao and shouted, “Yao, what are you talking about? Rourou has had to go to school these days and has no time to visit you. You can call her if you miss her.”


  Xiao Jing nodded and said, “Yes, Yao, but you can’t get out of bed now. Go back and lie down, okay?”


  Xiao Yao stared with a frown at his brothers, who were obviously acting abnormal, before slightly leaning against the wall and after throwing a threatening glance at them, he said seriously, “Don’t make me ask again. Tell me what happened to Rourou!”


  The two brothers exchanged a glance. Xiao Sa shrugged and Xiao Jing said, “Let’s talk about it inside the ward. Here……”


  Xiao Yao turned to walk into the ward and the two brothers quickly followed him. Xiao Sa helped Xiao Yao to lie down on the sickbed, adjusted the bed and put two pillows under Xiao Yao’s head.

  Xiao Jing came over, sat on the black leather sofa and said solemnly, “Yao, in fact, we don’t know what happened to Rourou either. That day, she suddenly came back to tell us that you went to City J for your mission. She also told us about your identity and said that you would probably in danger this time.”


  “We asked her how she knew about it,” Xiao Sa said. “She said that her computer skills were good, so she managed to hack into the Special Forces’ database. I didn’t believe her at first, but a lot of what she said matched what I knew.”


  Xiao Yao frowned and stared at the two. Xiao Sa continued, “At about 3 o’clock in the afternoon, she suddenly said that something bad happened to you, and then she just disappeared from the living room.” Xiao Sa still felt shock when he recalled that scene. He finished, “She just vanished into thin air, not even wearing shoes……”


  Xiao Yao nodded as he remembered how she had suddenly disappeared before Xiao Sa’s eyes. “And then?”


  “Rourou once said that she’s a fairy,” Xiao Jing said. “So we thought Rourou must have gone to save you. We prepared a hospital and called her, but as soon as she hung up the phone, she had brought you back to City A from City J. Who else has that ability except for immortals?”


  “So what happened to Rourou?!” Growled Xiao Yao. “Answer me!”


  Xiao Sa pursed his lips, saying, “Don’t worry, Yao. It’ll take time for us to straighten it out……”


  “Then speak quickly!” Xiao Yao shouted angrily with a scowl……
