Chapter 3: Fight Back
Translator:HenyeeEditor:Henyee
Xiao Jinning secretly smiled at Tang Xis words, a gleam of excitement flickering across her eyes. Although Xiao Rou had become bolder than before, she was also more annoying. It seemed like every single word of hers could irritate Mother. More importantly, she said she didnt want to return to the Xiao Family!
Although she didnt want Xiao Rou to go back either, she didnt forget to play innocent as always. She rushed up to Xiao Rou, held her hand and said softly, Rourou, I know you are blaming me for taking your place at home. If youre willing to go back home, Ill move out. Ill leave the Xiao Family.
Lin Ru frowned, gave Tang Xi a dark look and said disapprovingly, Jinning, what are you talking about? You didnt take anyones place! You are not the one to leave!
Yes. Tang Xi looked at Xiao Jinning with a smirk and said, Ms. Lin is right. You are the daughter of the Xiao Family. Im not.
In any case, in the minds of Xiao Hongyi and Lin Ru, only Xiao Jinning was worthy to be their daughter. And she was too proud to recognize them as her parents
However
Tang Xi sighed in her heart. She had Xiao Rous memories, so she could feel Xiao Rous sorrow at not being loved by her parents Although Xiao Rou had been a timid girl, she was very eager to be loved by her biological parents
Tang Xi was struggling. What she had said couldnt be taken back! Besides
Nonsense! Lin Ru was irritated by Tang Xis words again. In fact, she had come to see Xiao Rou not because she missed her, but because of her father-in-lawthe president of Xiaos Group had come back from abroad and informed them that he wanted to see his biological granddaughter. That was why she had specially come here to take Xiao Rou home. If Xiao Rou refused to go back with her, she wouldnt know how to explain to that grumpy old man!
At the thought of this, she scowled. Since you have the Xiao Familys blood in you, you are a member of this family! Change your clothes and come home with me!
Tang Xi was relieved to hear that.Little Rourou, dont worry. I will help you get the love from your parents. Dont be sad
No clothes, Tang Xi said expressionlessly. I only have this hospital gown.
Even Tang Xi felt sorry for herself. She only had this hospital gown and no other clothes!
Fortunately, it was not cold. She could wash her clothes in the evening and hang them on the window. The thin hospital gown would be dry the next morning after being blown by the wind all night, and then she could wear it again
A contemptuous smile appeared over Xiao Jinnings lips, but she said sadly, Why havent you got other clothes? Its my fault. I was too busy this month, so I didnt come to see you. Im really sorry to have you go through this. Ill ask my assistant to send some clothes here.
Lin Ru looked about the empty ward and frowned. She came here to see Xiao Rou a month ago and at that time she didnt feel anything wrong with the environment, but now she suddenly felt a little bit guilty; after all, Xiao Rou was her biological daughter.
Tang Xi shrugged carelessly and said, Its alright. I can leave the hospital like this.
Ridiculous! You just want to embarrass me, right? As soon as Lin Ru heard Tang Xis words, the guilt in her heart immediately dissipated and anger flared in her mind. Do you want to tell the whole world that were abusing you?
Arent you abusing me? Tang Xis sparkling eyes stared straight at Lin Ru as she sneered, I only tell the truth.
Rourou, dont talk to Mom like this! Xiao Jinning said softly, starting her performance once again.
Looking at Lin Rus angry face, Tang Xi felt truly sorry for Xiao Rou. Spotting Xiao Jinnings triumphant face, she really felt like slapping her hard. She tried to restrain the urge to slap her and told herself in her heart, Tang Xi, your Martial Point is at zero right now. Dont fight with them. You wont win if you do it. Endure, endure it.
Fine, if you dont want to go back with me, then dont! Lin Ru turned and left.
Tang Xi raised her brows indifferently at seeing Lin Ru go out, following which she took a look at Xiao Jinning who was still standing there and said coldly, Miss Xiao, everything went as you wished. Satisfied? Why are you still here?
Xiao Jinning sneered, Xiao Rou, Im glad you finally found your distance from me. Its a good decision for you to hide here.
Haha. Tang Xi jumped to her feet, pressed on towards Xiao Jinning and said darkly, Hide? Xiao Jinning, youre wrong. Im not hiding, but waiting for you to beg me home. I remember clearly how you trampled me.
Xiao Jinning took a sharp step back. She forced herself to calm down and looked into Tang Xis eyes, saying, Xiao Rou, do you think Mum and Dad will believe you when you tell them this?
Tang Xi chuckled, drew near Xiao Jinning and whispered to her, But Grandpa will believe it. What are you going to do if I accidentally tell Grandpa what happened that day when he came to pick me up?
Xiao Jinning clenched her hands and glared at Tang Xi. Xiao Jianxiong used to adore her greatly, but he was cold to her ever since he learnt that she was not his biological granddaughter. No matter what she did, Xiao Jianxiong didnt change his attitude towards her!
If Xiao Jianxiong found out that she almost killed Rourou, then she would probably be expelled out of the Xiao Family. At that time, even though Mum and Dad would shield her, she wouldnt be able to stay in the Xiao Family any longer!
How dare you! Xiao Jinning clenched her teeth.
Seeing the look on Xiao Jinnings face, Tang Xi knew she was right. Xiao Jianxiong had come back to China! That was why Lin Ru was in such a hurry to take her home!
She tittered and threw a glance at Xiao Jinning. Well see.
She then pulled over the quilt of her bed to cover herself and went to sleep.
As long as Xiao Jianxiong returned from abroad, she wouldnt worry that they wouldnt take her back to the Xiao Family.
Hearing the door of her ward being slammed shut, Tang Xi pursed her lips and muttered, Rude.
At this time, Tang Xi heard the voice of the system ring in her mind again
A curtain of light appeared before her eyes again, a message accompanying it:
[The host: As Tang Xi defeated Yao Jinning and Lin Ru in a verbal battle, all of her experience points have increased. Now her experience points are as follows:

[Because the host, Tang Xi, successfully slapped Xiao Rous enemies in the face, the system presents her a primary costume as a gift. Click if youd like to put it on.]
Tang Xi clicked and looked down. God! There really was a Change Clothes function in the system!
She jumped out of bed in terror and broke into curses, F*ck! 008, what kind of system are you? You even changed my clothes for me?!
