Tang Xi became wide-eyed; she did not expect Qiao Liang to say what he was doing. He was just trying to cause trouble!

Sure enough, Xiao Yao pounced forward to deliver a punch to him. Qiao Liang easily dodged his attack and looked at Xiao Yao coldly, saying, "Master. Xiao Yao, if you want to fight, let's find a spacious place.”

Xiao Jing grabbed his brother's hand, stepped forward and looked at Qiao Liang deeply. “What do you mean by this, Qiao Liang?!” He asked in a cold voice.

Qiao Liang looked at Xiao Jing, and then looked around at the crowd, replying, "I mean what I said."

Xiao Sa looked at Qiao Liang grimly, then turned his gaze to Tang Xi and asked coldly, "Rourou, tell me what's going on here? When did you get to know Qiao Liang?”

Everyone looked at Tang Xi. It was easier to ask him than Qiao Liang.

Qiao Liang also looked at Tang Xi deeply. The latter forced a smile and replied awkwardly, “I don't understand what he's talking about. Mr. Qiao, that's not what you asked me just now.”

"Then what did he ask you?" The crowd asked in unison.

Tang Xi touched her head. Sure enough, once you lie, you have to lie again to cover up the first one. It's really exhausting!

“Because I have a good relationship with Aunt Qiao, I promise to go with her every Saturday, and the result is her condition improving. But because I stayed in the hospital for a week, Aunt Qiao stopped eating after visiting me ..." Tang Xi gulped before continuing, "Then Mr. Qiao learned that his mother did not eat, so ..." Tang Xi tried to continue, only to find that she could not.

"Are you referring to the days when you were in a coma?" She asked.

Looking gratefully at He Wanyi as if he was her savior, Tang Xi nodded loudly and replied, “Yes, yes. I just explained it to Mr. Qiao, so we have cleared up the misunderstanding.”

"Qiao Liang, you made a fuss just because of this trivial matter?" The Mukun said, shaking his head. "You scared us."

Qiao Liang raised his eyebrows and sneered, "Do you mean to say that my mother's health is a trivial matter?"

Yang Mukun immediately apologized, "Sorry, I was wrong!"

Why is he blamed in every move? Is he under a curse?

While the others believed Tang Xi's words, the Xiao brothers did not. Little Five had said that Qiao Liang was talking to Rourou because of Tang Xi, and Rourou looked very strange now; it was clear that he was trying to fabricate the story but in the end could not straighten out his lie.

Xiao Jing said, "It's past two o'clock now. Rourou has just been discharged from the hospital and can't be home too late. Let's go home." He looked at Qiao Liang and continued, “We all drank tonight. Can you take us home?” Then he turned his gaze to Little Five and Qiao Liang's people and finished, "You sent many others home."

Little Five looked at Qiao Liang, who nodded in response.

Little Five thought the Young Master must have found the answer she wanted to know, because she would not be so calm otherwise. He even saw the Young Master smiling!

Little Five looked at Tang Xi doubtfully and thought to herself with a frown, 'Is this Miss Tang? But she doesn't look like her!’

As the crowd dispersed, the Xiao brothers got into their car with Qiao Liang. Qiao Liang was driving, while Tang Xi was sitting on the co-driver seat. The others narrowed their eyes and sat in the back seat without saying anything. As soon as the door closed, Xiao Jing asked in a cold voice, "Qiao Liang, you better explain what happened. Aren't you looking for Tang Xi? What does this have to do with Rourou?”

Qiao Liang looked at Tang Xi deeply, but he looked out the window. He thought he better shut up now.

Qiao Liang looked back at the three as he turned on the engine, saying, "What do you want to know?"

Xiao Yao asked, “Why does Little Five say that you can't calm down when talking about Miss Tang? And why are you treating Rourou so differently?”

Unfortunately, it was very difficult for him to cover up the lie, but the lie would soon be revealed.

Qiao Liang looked sideways at Tang Xi, turned the car around and drove it straight to the central park entrance in the corner, where he said, "Down."

Everyone got out of the car and so did Tang Xi. He subconsciously walked towards Qiao Liang as Xiao Yao grabbed his collar and dragged him towards him. Tang Xi hurriedly stopped her legs, turned around and smiled at Xiao Yao. “Yao~”

Xiao Yao snorted in response before looking at Qiao Liang, who continued to grab Tang Xi's hand and walked forward, ignoring the Xiao brothers. Xiao Jing took a deep breath and gritted her teeth as she said, "Qiao Liang, don't make me hit you. Release my sister!”

Qiao Liang raised Tang Xi's hand and looked at the three. "Ask him if he wants me to let him go?"

Tang Xi was actually tempted by her actions, but she pretended to be angry and shouted properly, "Take me off!"

Qiao Liang froze and looked at Tang Xi dejectedly, who felt his heart ache. He said gently, “Oke, you can hold my hand. Just hold.” Unfortunately, the man seems to have learned to take advantage of his mistakes and has continued to act pathetic and innocent in front of him ever since he learned of his mistake towards him on the balcony ... Was this fellow really the Qiao Liang he knew?

Where is your pride? Where is your pride?!

A hidden smile trembled on Qiao Liang's lips and a soft gleam flashed across his eyes. Xiao Yao could not bear it and punched him. Qiao Liang reacted by pulling Tang Xi behind him and went to fight with Xiao Yao. Ten minutes later, none of them managed to defeat the others. Sitting in the courtyard, Tang Xi poked Xiao Jing and asked, "When did Ah Liang learn Kung Fu?"

“Rourou!” Xiao Jing widened her eyes in shock. When did they become so familiar that he called Qiao Liang 'Ah Liang'?!

Tang Xi, realizing that she had made her tongue slip, chuckled and kept asking, “Yao is a Kung Fu master, right? But why do I feel they are on the same level in this aspect?”

After twenty minutes of fighting, the two men finally reached a truce as neither of them could defeat the other. Qiao Liang said with a laugh, “Master Xiao Yao is truly a worthy Special Forces soldier. You are really good at martial arts.”

Xiao Yao replied with a snort, "President Qiao isn't bad either."

Xiao Jing looked at Qiao Liang with wide-eyed eyes as she asked, "How do you know my brother's identity?"

Qiao Liang rolled his eyes. "Do you think everyone is as stupid as you, not knowing about your own brother's work despite living under the same roof as him?"

Xiao Sa said, “Qiao Liang, don't let us second-guess. Spit—what happened between you and Rourou?”

Qiao Liang was silent for a moment before replying, "Xixi had a plane crash on July 9."

Xiao Yao frowned. "What does this have to do with Rourou?"

Xiao Jing said, "Xiao Rou was hospitalized due to a car accident that day, remember?"

Qiao Liang nodded. “Then what else do you want to ask?”

Something suddenly happened to the three brothers and they all looked at Tang Xi in surprise. Tang Xi pursed her lips, smiled and said in an apologetic tone, “Sorry, brothers, I really didn't mean to deceive you all, either, but the matter about me coming back to life after death is really beyond belief, so I don't know how to tell you about it.”

"But you…"

“I gained that ability after I woke up in another girl's body. I don't know why it happened.”
