Mei Aiyuan looked in disbelief at the cellphone placed on the table by Xiao Jing. Did she just hear a shocking secret and witness a little detective threatening the defendant?

Lin Jiaos heart jerked sharply at Tang Xis words. What do you mean? she yelled.

But the reply she got was was only a busy tone. Seeing that Tang Xi had hung up the phone, Xiao Jing stood up casually and straightened up his clothes before turning to look at Mei Aiyuan and thanking her. Thank you, Mrs. Chen. Ill be taking this woman with me now.

Mei Aiyuan was still shocked by Tang Xis words from just a moment ago. Hearing Xiao Jing thank her, she nodded and murmured, Youre welcome. If Miss Xiao needs any help, please let me know.

Xiao Sa raised his eyebrows, while Xiao Jing also looked at Mei Aiyuan doubtfully. Mei Aiyuan smiled and said softly, If Miss Xiao finds out what happened to her that year and wants to bring this woman to court, I can take the stand to testify.

Xiao Jing, Xiao Sa and even Yang Qimo all looked surprised. With her current social status, Mei Aiyuan could live at ease in City W without adapting to anyones temper or giving anyone face, yet now she offered to help testify in court? Mei Aiyuan knew what they were thinking when she saw their looks. She smiled and said, I appreciate Miss Xiao a lot. Besides, shes my daughters classmate and her idol, so Id like to do Miss Xiao this little favor.

Xiao Jing nodded and thanked her. Then Id like to thank Mrs. Chen on behalf of my sister. Well be taking the woman with us now.

Lin Jiao looked at Xiao Jing and asked coldly, What did Xiao Rou mean by her words? Why was Jinning arrested? No, how could my mother be arrested by the police?! How dare you do that to my mother?

Xiao Jing glanced at Lin Jiao, who was still unrepentant even now, and replied impatiently, Youll find out when you get to City A. Now just shut up and follow us.

They couldnt travel by plane, as Lin Jiao was injured, so the two brothers decided to drive back to City A overnight.

After hanging up the call, Tang Xi had summoned 008.

[System: My night owl little princess, may I ask why you summoned me?]

Tang Xi had become used to 008s strange ways of addressing her. She merely asked, Who are my mothers parents?

008: How would I know that? Im not the gynecologist who attended to your mother in birth.

Tang Xi could almost imagine 008 curling his lips when he said this. She frowned and continued to ask, Arent you an omnipotent system? You dont even know this?!

Im not a prying system. Im a decent system, okay? Dont take me as a voyeur!

Tang Xi was speechless. She curled her lips and said, Okay, Okay. Then let me ask you, is Xiao Jinning Lin Jiaos daughter?

008: Well, isnt this what youre looking into now? Youll find out about the truth as long as you carry out a paternity test with Lin Jiao and Xiao Jinnings blood. Why are you asking me?

Tang Xi got angry. I want to find out earlier, alright? Then Ill be a lot surer when I see that Lin Jiao tomorrow! Dont you know that the most important thing about negotiation is to know your opponent well? Besides, if Lin Jiao really had something to do with the child swapping case, it wont be an accident but a crime!

008 fell into silence. Tang Xi frowned and waited for 008s reply. It was a long time before 008 answered. According to the information, Lin Jiao, who disappeared for more than a year twenty-three ago, was really in City W during that period.

Tang Xi frowned and asked seriously, You mean Xiao Jinning and I were swapped twenty-three years ago by Lin Jiao?

[System: No more information. The rest will be left to the host Tang Xi to complete independently. Cheer up, detective little princess!]

Tang Xi leaned her palm against her brow and was completely speechless. Where on earth had she found this stupid system?

Well, it seemed that she didnt find the system but the system found her.

Okay, she read novels sometimes. In all the system novels, it seemed that only male protagonists could get satisfactory systems, while the systems for females were all traps!

Tang Xi got up while comforting herself and took a stretch. She was then about to go to bed when suddenly, her eyes widened and she stared outside the courtyard. A Porsche Cayenne was parked outside and a man who she couldnt be more familiar with was leaning against the car and looking at her.

Tang Xi immediately turned and ran outside. By the time she ran downstairs, Qiao Liang was already waiting for her at the door. She looked at him in surprise and asked softly, Why are you here?

Qiao Liang pulled her into his arms. His voice was hoarse and sounded somewhat tired as he replied, I worked overtime until ten oclock and when I got back home, I still couldnt sleep, so I came here to see you. He held her tightly and asked with a softer voice, Why arent you sleeping yet?

When Tang Xi heard Qiao Liang say lightly that he came to see her because he couldnt sleep, she felt a sharp pain in her heart. She knew his insomnia couldnt be cured soon. She whispered, I was trying to find out why Xiao Rou was sent to City W and just found a clue, which is why Im not asleep, but Im about to go to bed.

Qiao Liang nodded and gently released her. Dont tire yourself out. Just go to bed.

Tang Xi frowned as she looked up at Qiao Liang and asked with a pout, You came here just to say this to me?

Of course not!

Qiao Liang shouted this in his heart, but he couldnt bear to let her become tired. Tang Xi stepped forward to put her arms around Qiao Liangs waist and whispered, Since youve come, get some sleep here.

Qiao Liangs heart gave a great leap and he looked down at Tang Xi with a smile on his lips. Are you inviting me?

Tang Xi gave him an angry stare and pinched the flesh on his waist. Qiao Liang let out a grunt and grabbed Tang Xis hand, and his voice became hoarse. Xixi, dont tease me.

Tang Xi shrugged and pouted at Qiao Liang. I mean, since youre here, just sleep in the car for a while. A two-hour nap also counts as sleeping.

Qiao Liang frowned. Then you cant sleep.

Tang Xi replied, Its alright. You sleep for two hours and Ill wake you up, then Ill go upstairs to sleep after you leave.

Qiao Liang curled his lips and said unwillingly, Id prefer to sleep in your room.
