Tang Xi immediately felt that the food was bland. It turns out that hearing about her from someone else is more painful. Why does he care so much about her?

Xiao Jing was also annoyed. From what he knew about Qiao Liang, he was the type of person who would not be affected by anything. Even when he faced great difficulties in the past, he managed to get through it by relying only on himself. He had not even blinked his eyes when he expelled his father from the Qiao Family. But now he was indulging himself like this just because of a woman, and he even put aside the Qiao International Group, which he had risked his life to take back.

Xiao Jing picked up her fork and poked the pasta on the plate, but she felt no appetite, so she got up, pulled out a few glasses and asked Tang Xi to get some wine. Tang Xi happened to want to drink, so she immediately got up, took the best wine from the wine rack and opened it. Xiao Jing put down her glass and Tang Xi poured wine into it. Xiao Sa picked up the glasses, clinked the glasses with them and took a sip. "Will Qiao Liang give up his company if it turns out that woman is really dead?"

"That's impossible." Xiao Jing took a sip of wine, put down her glass and continued eating the pasta with a fork. “Qiao Liang is not the type of person who cannot recover after a setback. He will be depressed the longest for a short time and then he will stand at a new height again. He will probably explode in silence, leapfrogging Empire Group and making Qiao's Group the number one company in Asia.”

Tang Xi smiled, picked up her glass and finished her wine. He knew that he was the type of person that Xiao Sa portrayed, but in that case, his heart would die and he would try his best to rise to new heights. Even if he lost his health, he would not mind, and then he would probably die at a young age.

So he couldn't let that happen. He must live in a warm world and be surrounded by love. The first half of his life was too bitter, and thus he had to be gently loved in the second half of his life.

But what should he do to make her accept it?

Tell her that she has changed from Tang Xi to Xiao Rou? He won't believe it! But if he did not tell her this, what reason could he use to approach her?

Xiao Sa and Xiao Jing noticed that Tang Xi was drinking in silence. Before they finished one glass, he had drunk several glasses. Xiao Jing quickly held onto Tang Xi's glass and said, "Hey, little drunk, what's wrong with you?"

Tang Xi was a little drunk, but her brain was still conscious. He pursed his lips and looked at them as he asked, "Why is Qiao Liang, such a powerful man, torturing himself like this for a woman?"

Xiao Jing blinked and said, “He not only tormented himself, but also sought death. The day she heard the news, she locked herself in her office all day. When he came out the next day, his hands were bleeding.”

"Abuse yourself," Tang Xi said, tears came out of her eyes, and she smiled sadly. His eyes explored the faces of Xiao Jing and Xiao Sa, and he took a piece of lobster meat from his plate and put it in his mouth. “She asked for it.”

"Why are you crying?" Xiao Sa took out a tissue and wiped his tears. “Is it because you drink too much? Stop drinking then.”

"There's sand in my eyes." Tang Xi took the tissue from Xiao Sa and pursed her lips. “But the wine is not aerated well. It's too sharp. My throat hurts so much...” With that, he leaned over the table and shouted loudly, “Why is the wine so strong? I only drank a few glasses. Now my head hurts, my eyes hurt, my mouth, my throat, and my stomach hurts all.”.

Xiao Sa and Xiao Jing looked at each other and nodded at the same time. This girl is drunk!

Xiao Jing helplessly lifted her up and climbed to the top, deciding that she would never let the little girl drink again!

When Tang Xi was laid on the bed, she grabbed the blanket, covered herself and slept on her stomach, feeling relieved that she had managed to hide her secret from them. Just now, they almost knew it.

Xiao Jing looked at Tang Xi deeply and felt very strange. However, he could not say exactly what was wrong. Why did Rourou become so strange every time they mentioned Qiao Liang?

If so, he could not let them meet again, otherwise he would fall in love with Qiao Liang! Then, his sister would definitely get hurt!

Tang Xi did not know what Xiao Jing was thinking. He fell asleep immediately because he was sad and drank too much wine.

When she wakes up in the afternoon, she has a headache, which makes her feel that her entire brain is not hers. He got off and Xiao Jing was playing a game in the living room. Seeing her coming down, she yelled towards the kitchen, “She is awake. Hurry."

Tang Xi walked over to the sofa and sat down, looking dazed. He stared at the TV screen for quite a while before he slowly asked, "Am I drunk?"

"No, you don't" Xiao Jing said as she played the game. "You just drink too much."

Tang Xi was silent. “...” Is there a difference?

He decided to change the subject. Tang Xi looked at the game she was playing and asked, "Are you playing by yourself?"

“I'm playing with Sa. She thought you were going to wake up, so she went to cook soup to get drunk.” Xiao Jing smiled. “After you drink it, we will invite you to eat seafood and watch the movie.”

Tang Xi snorted and gently leaned on the sofa. Seeing him play the game, he yawned and said, “I've never seen this game before. Is it new?”

Having fun, Xiao Jing did not realize that Tang Xi knew this game was new. He nodded and replied, “This is a new game developed by Sa company and is being tested. As a game master, I have to help Sa to test it.”

Tang Xi nodded. "So Sa runs a gaming company?"

"Yes. Many of the games on the market were developed by his company, but he was only in charge of making money, and others were done by the vice president. So many people only know President Zhou, but they do not know that the real decision maker is President Xiao.”

Tang Xi smiled, leaned against the sofa and stared into the kitchen. “Sa amazing.”

“He's a genius in mathematics and computers. I'll tell you a secret—dia used to be a famous hacker.”

Tang Xi smiled. He knew that all of his family members were prominent figures. Yao is an undercover agent, Sa is a hacker and Jing is Qiao Liang's assistant. None of them are ordinary people.

Just then, Xiao Sa came with drunk soup. Seeing Tang Xi sitting slumped on the sofa, he walked up to her and said, "Drink soup."

Tang Xi looked at Xiao Sa and snorted, "Sa, you are like a virtuous wife."
