Tang Xi looked up at the three people who were shocked and a sarcastic gleam flickered across her eyes. "Do you think it's useful to be weak after what happened?"
Xiao Jing fell silent. They were the ones who showed up that day. They had accompanied Aunt Xiao to send Xiao Rou to the hospital and listened to the doctor's diagnosis. The doctor said that her aorta had been severely injured, so her breath of life was very weak, but they didn't expect that it was Xiao Jinning who had stepped on it.
Xiao Sa felt very depressed. He lunged to his feet. "I'm going to find Xiao Jinning!"
"Stop!" Xiao Yao shouted. "What are you going to say to her if you go to her now?"
"I'm going to ask her why she did this!" Xiao Sa looked annoyed. "Are we just going to let her get away with it?"
"Do you have any evidence?" Xiao Yao looked up at Xiao Sa.
"I …" Xiao Sa looked at Tang Xi and said flatly, "Rourou is the evidence. Rourou is here, so we have evidence!"
"Humph." Xiao Yao sneered. Suddenly his face darkened and he shouted angrily, "Sit down!"
Seeing that his brother was really angry, Xiao Jing hurriedly pulled Xiao Sa to sit down. Xiao Yao glanced at him, then at Tang Xi who had been indifferent to Xiao Sa's actions, and asked, "Aren't you going to tell Lin Ru?"
Xiao Jing and Xiao Sa were used to their brother calling people by their names when they were not in front of others.
Tang Xi had no feelings for Lin Ru, so she didn't think there was anything wrong with Xiao Yao's words. A sarcastic gleam flickered across her eyes as she asked, "Will she believe me?" If she did, the real Xiao Rou wouldn't have died. Xiao Rou had said many times that she had never seen that necklace, but Lin Ru still believed that Xiao Rou, who grew up in the countryside, must have done something sneaky, so she believed Xiao Jinning's words and thought that Xiao Rou had stolen the necklace.
Xiao Jing and Xiao Sa sat there dejectedly. Of course they knew Aunt wouldn't believe Xiao Rou's words, because in Lin Ru's heart, she didn't care about her biological daughter at all. All she cared about was her adopted daughter who had won glory for her.
Xiao Yao frowned. "Why did you hide your potential? If your mother had seen you now, she would have accepted you. "
"But I don't accept it." Tang Xi turned around, sat up straight, looked at Xiao Yao and said seriously, "I won't accept a mother who only cares about fame and exploitation and has no affection for me."
"She has feelings for Xiao Jinning," Xiao Sa said.
Tang Xi nodded. "Yes, so I won't accept a mother who would drive her own daughter out of the house for an adopted daughter. So, brothers, please accept me, accept me now."
She couldn't go back to the past and change what had happened to Xiao Rou when she first entered the family, but she wanted to make everyone look at Xiao Rou in a new light from now on, make those who had abandoned Xiao Rou regret it, and make those who killed Xiao Rou get the punishment they deserved.
She wouldn't let Xiao Jinning off. Although she could only live on Xiao Rou after Xiao Rou died, she had no right to forgive someone who killed her for Xiao Rou!
"Who said we didn't accept you?" Xiao Jing said awkwardly, "We're just confused because the you we see is so different from the one we know. Please don't take it to heart."
Tang Xi nodded. "I know."
Seeing that the atmosphere had finally eased a bit, Xiao Sa picked up the wine glass on the table and said with a smile, "Haha, since we've talked it over, let's have a toast."
Tang Xi picked up the wine glass on the table and raised her glass. "Thank you, brothers. I promise you, you'll be pleasantly surprised in the future. I'll never let down those who love me."
Xiao Yao raised his glass and clinked it with Tang Xi's. "If you have any difficulties, you can tell me. You're not alone now, but a member of our family."
Tang Xi's eyes turned red and her nose turned sour. She pursed her lips and nodded. "I know." Her voice had become hoarse.
Xiao Sa took a sip of wine and snorted. "I was wondering why Xiao Jinning was the only one I hated even though we were all members of the Xiao Family. It turns out that this is the truth!"
Xiao Jing told him to drink. "Drink more and talk less … No, drink less wine too. You'll talk nonsense when you drink too much."
Tang Xi rested her chin on her hand and smiled. "In fact, I like this kind of life very much. I can have dinner with you in the restaurant, talk to you, and have a glass of red wine with you. I didn't even dare to dream of this kind of life before."
"Tell us about your past?" Xiao Jing looked at Tang Xi and asked, feeling a little sorry for her.
Tang Xi recalled her previous life. Her life was very boring. Before Grandpa got sick, she was a typical rich young lady. She was taken care of in every possible way. Whether at home or at school, everything was taken care of by the housekeeper and servants. All she needed to do was eat, study and play. Later, Grandpa got sick. In addition to accompanying Grandpa, she spent most of her time learning about the Empire Group, and then she flew around to learn about the Empire Group's industries. She didn't know when she was too busy and neglected her boyfriend, and then she broke up with him??? Two years later, Grandpa got well, but she died.
Now that she thought about it, she didn't seem to have done anything meaningful.
She didn't even say 'I love you' to that man.
She regretted it so much.
Now she didn't have a chance, because she knew he no longer loved her.
Tang Xi smiled faintly, drank up the red wine in her glass and looked at Xiao Yao and the others with misty eyes. "You can investigate my past, and then you'll know everything. It's just sad to talk about it now."
Xiao Yao grunted. "Don't say it if you don't want to. Since you're not Yao Rou anymore, you have nothing to do with that family."
Xiao Jinning's surname was Yao, and Xiao Rou used to be called Yao Rou.
Tang Xi got up with a smile. "I'm going to the bathroom."
She got up unsteadily. Maybe because she thought of Grandpa and that man today, or because Xiao Rou couldn't hold her liquor, Tang Xi felt a little dizzy after only drinking two glasses of wine. Xiao Jing, who was sitting opposite Tang Xi, hurriedly stood up to support her when he saw she was about to fall. "Let me take you there."
Tang Xi smiled, stretched out a finger and shook it. "No, I can do it. You can drink by yourselves."
With that, Tang Xi turned around and walked towards the bathroom. Xiao Jing looked at Tang Xi's back and asked worriedly, "Does she know where the bathroom is? She won't go to the wrong bathroom, will she? "
Xiao Yao looked back and said, "No, she won't."
