  Xiao Yan and Xiao Hongyi had been wordlessly standing by the side, merely watching Tang Xi. Xiao Hongyi’s mind was full of the scene of Xiao Rou’s first day back at his home. She had looked so shy and timid. Now, looking at the present her, he couldn’t believe that this was his daughter. The situation from before was completely reversed shortly after she appeared. If it weren’t for her, they would have stood on the hospital corridor, struggled to cope with the old couple who were making a scene, and given them millions as their living expenses or as the mental damage compensation for Xiao Jinning……

  But then she appeared. With little effort, she uncovered a truth that had been covered up for decades. Ah Ru was not the child of the two moths. The parents that she had been enduring for decades were not her biological parents…… A truth that Ah Ru hadn’t discovered in the last decades was uncovered by their daughter in a few words……

  Afterward, she sent Xiao Jinning and that difficult old woman to the police station with several words. They didn’t even have to go to the police station and those people were taken away by the police.

  Now, she was going to uncover another shocking truth……

  Yes, there weren’t so many coincidences in the world. How could people mistake their children? How could this mistake have happened unless someone deliberately swapped the two children!

  Thinking of a possibility, Xiao Hongyi walked up to Tang Xi and asked nervously, “Rourou, do you mean that someone deliberately swapped you and Xiao Jinning with the purpose of giving Xiao Jinning a well-to-do life?”


  Tang Xi looked at Xiao Hongyi and raised her eyebrows. She truly wanted to say “Thank god, you finally became smart,” but she didn’t say anything in the end. She just nodded slightly and replied, “Yes. That’s why I want to find Lin Jiao.”


  At that moment, a cell phone rang. Lin Ruozhi was startled at the sound and he hurried to hold his phone. Tang Xi looked at Xiao Yan, who stood closest to Lin Ruozhi, and cried out, “Get his phone!”


  Xiao Yan rushed forward almost at the very moment Tang Xi spoke; he grabbed Lin Ruozhi’s cellphone. Tang Xi asked, “Who is it?”


  “The caller ID is ‘Daughter’. It should be Lin Jiao.” Xiao Yan’s voice was emotionless. He had not the least bit of love for his aunt, who was an idle gambler. When they previously visited the Lin Family, he had even caught her trying to seduce his father.

  Tang Xi nodded, asked Xiao Sa to take Lin Ruozhi out, and then signaled Xiao Yan to answer the phone. As soon as the call connected, Lin Jiao’s impatient voice was heard. “Dad, what are you doing? What took you so long?

  “How did it go? Did they agree to give Jinning money? How much are they going to pay?

  “They drove Jinning into such a miserable situation. You can’t let them off! If they don’t agree to give you money, you just stay there. I don’t think they’ll dare to drive you out…… Hey, Dad, are you listening to me?”


  Tang Xi pursed her lips as she came forward to take the phone and responded with a low grunt. Hearing the response, Lin Jiao added, “If they really drive you out, go to the police and tell them Lin Ru abandoned you after marrying a rich guy. I’m sure they’ll be afraid. Rich people are afraid of losing face. Just stay there for a few days and you’ll get money from them!”


  Tang Xi gave another grunt in response again and Lin Jiao laughed with satisfaction. “Okay, that’s it. I have something to attend to. You just stay in City A. If Lin Ru doesn’t want to give you money, use the old way. Okay, I gotta hang up.”


  Hearing the other party hang up the phone, Tang Xi took a deep breath and threw the phone to Xiao Jing, saying, “Locate her.”


  Xi Luoxian, who had been listening to the one-sided conversation, was so angry that she almost exploded with anger. She gnashed her teeth and exclaimed incredulously, “Shame on them! How could there be such shameless people in the world! They have done so many terrible things to Ah Ru, and now they still try to extort her! How can they be so shameless?!”


  Tang Xi smiled, her eyes looking indifferent. She glanced at the phone in Xiao Jing’s hand and sneered, “It’s alright. I’ve recorded the call and it can be used as evidence in court for their blackmailing the Xiao Family.” Then she looked at her watch and continued, “It’s getting late. Go back to take a rest.” Finally, she turned her eyes to Xiao Jing and finished, “Jing, please find a place for Mr. Lin to take a rest. Don’t let him talk with others, but don’t torture him.”


  Xiao Jing grunted and looked at her, asking, “You won’t be going back?”


  Tang Xi nodded as she glanced back at Xiao Yan and Xiao Hongyi and then said, “I guess you must have work to deal with. You can go about your business and I’ll handle this.”


  Xiao Hongyi turned to Xiao Yan and said, “Go back to the company to deal with the company’s affairs. Your sister and I will wait here until your mom wakes up.”


  Xiao Yan faced Tang Xi and gave her a nod before leaving.

  The group went downstairs. Xiao Sa and Xiao Jing left with Lin Ruozhi, Xiao Yan went to his company, and Liu Chengyu and Xi Luoxian followed Xiao Hongyi and Tang Xi downstairs to go to the VIP area. Xi Luoxian gazed at Tang Xi as they sat on the bench in the corridor and after quite a while, she said, “You don’t look like the Xiao Rou your mom described, but you look exactly the same as I imagined. You have the same character as your mom when she was young. You two are so similar, except that you’re smarter than your mom.”


  Tang Xi raised her eyebrows and smiled at Xi Luoxian, replying, “Really? Thank you.”


  Liu Chengyu gazed at Tang Xi from the side, his eyes full of tenderness. He said softly, “Rourou has always been so smart and beautiful. I remember the first time I saw you, you were so brilliant and dazzling. No matter where you are, I believe that you’ll always be the first one who people will notice.”


  Tang Xi raised her eyebrows and didn’t speak. Sitting on the side, Xiao Hongyi realized what Liu Chengyu wanted when he heard his words. Although Liu Chengyu used to be nice to Xiao Jinning, he had never complimented her like this!

  But it wasn’t the time to discuss this matter. Xiao Hongyi fixed a contemplative eye on Tang Xi for a while before asking seriously, “What are you going to do with those people?”


  Raising her eyebrows, Tang Xi turned her eyes to Xiao Hongyi, who continued, “If Tao Yan and Lin Ruozhi really do turn out to be the culprits behind swapping you and Xiao Jinning, what do you plan to do?”


  Tang Xi flashed a sarcastic smile at Xiao Hongyi. “Shouldn’t I be the one asking you that question, President Xiao? They replaced your daughter. What are you going to do? Should you be grateful to them?”


  Xiao Hongyi was a bit embarrassed at her question, but he knew Tang Xi had spoken nothing wrong. She was swapped with another child in her infancy and they, as her parents, should get justice for her!
