Xiao Yan's eyes were filled with pain as he looked at the girl in front of him who was a complete stranger. She was supposed to hold his hand intimately and call him brother, but now she was standing next to someone else and calling him cousin like they were strangers.
Xiao Jing saw through Xiao Yan's thoughts and a sarcastic gleam flickered across his eyes. Although Xiao Yan had wanted to take Xiao Rou back, he hadn't been so resolute, as if what happened at home had nothing to do with him, and Xiao Rou was dispensable to him. But now, why did he put on such a hurt look?
Thinking of this, Xiao Jing couldn't help but sneer at Xiao Yan. "Cousin, Rourou is talking to you."
Tang Xi saw through Xiao Jing's thoughts and was a little speechless at his bad taste, but she couldn't call Xiao Yan Brother, because she was not Xiao Rou and had no special feelings for them. She would be nice to whoever was nice to her. Since she was Xiao Hongli's daughter, she called Xiao Hongyi her son, so she called him Cousin.
But … Tang Xi looked at Xiao Yan with a smile and asked, "Cousin, are you here to see Grandpa too?"
Grandpa Xiao was a little upset when he heard Tang Xi call Xiao Yan Cousin so casually, but he wouldn't say anything about it since it was Grandpa's fault.
Xiao Yan paused for a full minute before he nodded. "Yes, I happened to be nearby, so I came to see Grandpa. What about you?"
Before Tang Xi could speak, Xiao Sa interrupted, "Us? Rourou has changed too fast recently. She looks different every minute. We were afraid that Grandpa wouldn't recognize her in two days, so we took her here to see Grandpa."
Tang Xi frowned. What did he mean by "change every minute"? Was she a monster?
Although 008's change in her appearance was a little puzzling and even terrifying, she should be able to recognize her.
Xiao Yan's gaze rested on Tang Xi's face. Just as Xiao Sa said, the longer he looked at her, the more beautiful she became. Besides, her natural noble temperament couldn't be ignored.
Even ten Xiao Jinning's couldn't compare with her.
He really didn't know what kind of drug that woman had fed his parents. They actually abandoned such a big treasure and insisted on keeping someone who wasn't related to them by their side.
Tang Xi didn't know what Xiao Yan was thinking. She glared at Xiao Sa and said coquettishly, "Sa, you're teasing me again. I'll tell Mom tonight and ask her to punish you!"
"Alright, alright, my little princess, don't tell Mama. Look, Big Brother is going to skin me alive." Xiao Sa stretched out his hand and gently scratched Tang Xi's nose with a look of enjoyment. "You're getting better and better at acting coquettishly. You've really learned my skills!"
Tang Xi glared at him and Xiao Jing was immediately unconvinced. "Doesn't my teaching count?"
Grandpa Xiao looked at the four siblings fooling around and was amused. There was a rare smile on Xiao Yao's cold face.
Xiao Yan looked at the four of them happily and felt very upset. He should be the one being pestered and coquettishly by Xiao Rou. Why did the little girl who dared not say a word in his family become so lively and lovely in Xiao Yao's family and even became more beautiful day by day?
Xiao Yan knew that Xiao Rou didn't have plastic surgery because her facial features hadn't changed. Only her skin had changed, and the color of her skin didn't seem to have been injected with water and light, but was natural. Did the environment really change everything?
"Grandpa, since Xiao Yao and the others are accompanying you, I'm leaving." Xiao Yan felt it was very unsightly to see his sister being so affectionate with others and just wanted to leave here as soon as possible.
Grandpa Xiao didn't have time to care about Xiao Yan because of his good granddaughter. He nodded and told him to be careful on the way. Xiao Yan left and Xiao Yao said he would see him off.
Xiao Sa and Xiao Jing exchanged a glance and then continued to chat with Grandpa Xiao with Tang Xi.
Tang Xi really liked Grandpa Xiao. Grandpa Xiao made her feel as if she had returned to her grandpa's side. She really hoped that there could be someone by her grandpa's side.
Xiao Yao walked Xiao Yan out of the Xiao Family's mansion. Xiao Yan stopped and looked back at Xiao Yao with a calm face and indifferent voice. "What's the matter?"
Xiao Yao didn't like to beat around the bush. Hearing Xiao Yan's question, he said coldly, "I hope no one in your family knows about Rourou's current situation. We don't want to disturb her innocence and peace."
Xiao Yan frowned. "What do you mean?"
"Cousin, you're so smart. You should know what I mean." Xiao Yao looked at Xiao Yan and said, "I think you know what Uncle and Aunt are thinking. First, they do it because of the Liu Family's arranged marriage, and secondly, they would rather abandon their own daughter because they raised that woman for more than twenty years. However, you can't guarantee that they won't have any evil thoughts when they see such a beautiful Rourou. They might even take her away from us. Rourou is not an object. You can keep her or throw her away if you don't want her. Besides, there's a wolf living in your house. Do you think that woman will do something crazy if she knows that Rourou is living so well or has become what she is now?"
Xiao Yan frowned. "Rourou is our family's child."
"But your family doesn't recognize her," Xiao Yao said coldly. Xiao Yao said coldly, "Although we don't want the company's property and have never fought with you for it, it doesn't mean that we will let you take what belongs to us from us."
"It depends on Rourou's choice, doesn't it?" Xiao Yan said unhappily.
Rourou was his sister, and he had wanted to take her back, but who knew that his parents would be so unreasonable??? He didn't want to be distracted by these things.
"She has made her choice," Xiao Yao said domineeringly. "Her choice now is her best choice."
Xiao Yan snorted and opened the car door. "Not necessarily." Then he got into the car.
Although he said so, he still listened to Xiao Yao's words. Xiao Yao was right. That woman had been eyeing their family's property. If they had the help of Liu's Group, the company's shares would also fall into the hands of that woman in the future. That woman was not so easy to control.
But his parents seemed to be bewitched by that woman. They always thought about her and even abandoned their own daughter. He didn't know what to do.
Xiao Yan held the steering wheel tightly. He couldn't remember what the girl used to look like when he saw her in the old mansion.
