Xiao Sa shook his head and replied, “Not much. Most of them had gone to the school gate. How did you get out?”

Tang Xi briefly told them how He had helped her out and then walked towards the car. “Come quickly back. By the way, Yao seemed to be going to J City. Let's talk about when we get back.”

"Well, okay." Xiao Sa and Xiao Jing came here by car, so each of them drove one car on their way home. Tang Xi and Xiao Jing drove the car that Xiao Yao used to take her to school in the morning.

Tang Xi asked, "What did they say?"

“What can they say?” Xiao Jing looked pouted. “Of course they said they wanted to take you back. Do you want to go back?”

Tang Xi chuckled and replied, “I'm not a teddy bear they can keep when they want to and throw away when they don't. I came home because I was not in the mood to study today. I won't be back with them.”

Xiao Jing was relieved to hear Tang Xi's words; she didn't want to lose her younger sister whom she had raised for over two months.

They returned home only to find that Xiao Yan was also here. Xiao Jing and Xiao Sa were shocked, but they did not say anything. They sat beside Yang Jingxian with Tang Xi, and Tang Xi gently greeted Xiao Hongyi and her family. "Hello, Auntie, Uncle and Cousin Yan."

Lin Ru felt her heart bleed when she heard Xiao Rou call her "Auntie". He actually felt relieved when Xiao Rou chose to go with the Xiao Hongli family, despite being a little annoyed. She even thought that Xiao Rou should not call her "mother" for the rest of her life and thought that Xiao Hongli and his family would definitely regret adopting a princess with sticky fingers.

But when Xiao Rou appeared in front of the Xiao Hongyi family, they were unable to recognize her until she greeted them, and that was when they realized that this very beautiful girl was their daughter and sister.

Lin Ru clenched her hands. This beautiful, graceful and charming girl was his daughter, and she should have grown happy by his side.

Xiao Yan was also surprised. The last time she saw Xiao Rou was a week ago when she was still beautiful, but not as beautiful as today. Her beauty cannot be covered up. How can one be so beautiful in such a short time? She was so beautiful that she was stunned by her appearance!

Xiao Hongyi was stunned. He felt his heart beating fast when he saw this girl. Is this beautiful girl his daughter?

"Rourou, did you have plastic surgery?" Xiao Hongyi thought that she would not be so beautiful unless she had undergone plastic surgery.

Tang Xi's face darkened and she asked, “Uncle, what do you mean? You're here to talk about cosmetic surgery with me?"

Xiao Hongyi nodded in agreement. “Yes, we really have to thank your aunt for taking very good care of your sister.”

Getting the implication, Tang Xi was impressed by Xiao Yan's shrewdness. What she was trying to say was that Yang Jingxian was only Tang Xi's aunt, not her mother. Of course, the Xiao brothers and Yang Jingxian also got the implication and became a little angry. But just as they were about to speak, Tang Xi smiled and said, “Sepupu, you are wrong. It's just a matter of course for my mother, father, and brother to take care of me. Why do you thank them for me?”

Lin Ru was disappointed at Tang Xi's words, but she knew she was too impatient and hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, you were right. I've come here today to apologize to you. Sorry, Rourou. Mother should not misunderstand you, believe in Xiao Jinning's slanderous words and treat you like me. It doesn't matter if you don't forgive me. I just came to apologize.”

Tang Xi's eyes blinked. The Lin Ru he saw today was completely different from the aggressive Lin Ru he had seen before. Today, Lin Ru had swallowed her pride and become extremely humble.

He suddenly felt sad. 'The real Xiao Rou won't die if you find out earlier.'

With this thought, Tang Xi chuckled and replied, “Auntie, what are you talking about? It wasn't your fault. I'm not blaming you. Instead, I would like to thank you for sending me into such a warm family.”

Lin Ru and Xiao Hongyi's faces stiffened, and Xiao Yan also stopped. He looked at Tang Xi deeply and said seriously, “Rourou, Mom and Dad have already apologized to you. Now everyone knows that you are the son of Mom and Dad. If you still live here, how will people think of us?”

Tang Xi raised her eyebrows and looked at Xiao Yan with a faint smile. He said, "So you didn't come to apologize, but to force me back?" He sneered, and his aura suddenly turned aggressive. He continued coldly, “I don't care how others will think of you! You don't want to acknowledge me and claim that I can only be your family's 'adopted daughter. Am I so cheap in your eyes? Should I wag my tail at you for being your adopted daughter? Should I shed tears because of the bones you threw at me? Who do you think you are all?”

Realizing his words were not appropriate, Xiao Yan took a breath and said, "I didn't mean to. I mean, the truth is out now. You need to get back to your original position. You can still meet Uncle and his family after you return to our house, right?”

"No," Tang Xi replied coldly. "Since I called Second Uncle's father, I was determined to no longer have any relationship with all of you, so I won't go with you!"

Xiao Hongyi was annoyed to hear this. He asked excitedly, “Xiao Rou, what do you want us to do? Look, we're all waiting for you, and your grandfather wants you to come home with us, too. You don't have to continue living here and bother your second uncle!"

"How can you say that my daughter is bothered to live in her own house ?!" Yang Jingxian denied coldly. “Didn't you say that you just came here to apologize? If you want to apologize, just do it and leave. But if you came here to take my daughter from me, then I'm sorry to say that I didn't welcome you. Get out of my house!"

Tang Xi held onto Yang Jingxian's hand and smiled at her. Seeing this, Yang Jingxian gradually calmed down, but Xiao Yan frowned and said, "Auntie, I think you should be very clear about who Xiao Rou's child is."
