Chapter 155: We Must Investigate It
Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee
Xiao Hongyi showed the paternity test reports to Xi Luoxian, explaining solemnly, “Two of her ribs were broken while her spine was fractured. She just had an operation. The doctor said that she’s out of danger, but I don’t know whether she’ll wake up tonight or not.”
Xi Luoxian frowned at his words as she looked down at the report. “So it was Aunt Tao who pushed…” Before she finished, she stared at the report with her eyes widened. Clenching onto the report, she asked, “Is this the paternity test report for Ah Ru and her parents?”
Xiao Hongyi nodded wordlessly. Xi Luoxian looked at the two pages in her hand in shock. “God! How could this be? How could they…”
“If Rourou hadn’t come over and reminded us, I wouldn’t have thought to perform a paternity test, and they would most likely still have had us fooled.” Xiao Hongyi sighed, then scowled. “Now I don’t know how to tell Ah Ru about this. If she finds out, I’m afraid…”
Xi Luoxian shook her head. “Maybe Ah Ru will recover sooner after hearing it.”
No one would want parents like Tao Yan and Lin Ruozhi. Now that this paternity test result was out, it was time to cut off the relations with the Lin family. If they still dared to harass her, Lin Ru could call the police.
With this in mind, Xi Luoxian turned her eyes to Tang Xi, who was simply dressed and looked cool and adorable. Her eyes lit up and she walked over with a smile to take hold of Tang Xi’s hand and asked gently, “Are you Rourou? I’m Aunt Xi. I was your mom’s classmate back when we were in university. You really look like your mom—you look exactly like how she did when she was in college.”

Tang Xi greeted Xi Luoxian with a smile and the latter asked, “Rourou, how did you know your mom isn’t blood-related to the Lin Family?”
Tang Xi saw doubt in Xi Luoxian’s eyes. She frowned slightly and pursed her lips, replying, “I didn’t know but guessed… so I asked Daddy to do a paternity test, but then they spilled the beans. It proved that my guess was right.”
“You are always so sharp-eyed and can point out where a problem lies.” Liu Chengyu stood on the side and gazed at Tang Xi with shining eyes, feeling even more excited. This was the girl he liked. She would never put herself in a difficult situation. She was such a smart girl.
Tang Xi looked at Liu Chengyu with raised eyebrows. A smile hovering over her lips, she said, “President Liu, we meet again. The last time we met, President Liu was trying so hard to defend Xiao Jinning. I didn’t expect that so soon… well, we meet again.”
Liu Chengyu was certainly aware of what Tang Xi was talking about. He looked a little embarrassed as he chuckled and said, “I misunderstood you the last time. I didn’t know of what happened between you and Xiao Jinning, nor did I know she had been deceiving us, so…” He looked up at Tang Xi with sincere eyes as he finished, “Please forgive my carelessness and stupidity.”
Tang Xi frowned. What did he mean by saying this? Why was he asking her to “forgive his carelessness and stupidity”?
Tang Xi smirked as she thought of a possibility. “Xiao Jinning is upstairs.”
Hearing her name, both Xi Luoxian and Liu Chengyu looked angry. Xi Luoxian said to Tang Xi, “Xiao Rou, I’ve blamed your mom, your dad as well as Chengyu for the unfair things they did to you. Please don’t keep that matter in your mind all the time. If you have any complaints, just tell me and I’ll help you get justice.”

Tang Xi smiled and replied, “Thank you, Aunt Xi. But I can get justice myself.”
Hearing her words, Xi Luoxian knew she didn’t want to talk about her past life. She had been kicked out of home by her parents when she was in the most need of care. It certainly wouldn’t be easy for them to take her back now. Thinking of this, Xi Luoxian didn’t want to force Tang Xi, so she turned around to smile at Yang Jingxian and then said gently, “Jingxian, thank you for taking Xiao Rou in.”
Yang Jingxian returned the smile. “Xiao Rou is my daughter. You don’t have to thank me.”
Tang Xi frowned at Xi Luoxian’s words and said seriously, “Aunt Xi, thank you for your concern. But if you talk to my mom like this, it will hurt her feelings.”
Xi Luoxian paused and then realized that Tang Xi didn’t like what she said to Yang Jingxian, so she smiled apologetically at Tang Xi. “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have said that.”
Tang Xi gave a shrug in response before leading Yang Jingxian to one side and asking her to go home. She couldn’t go back home today because she still had to deal with some matters here.
Yang Jingxian felt warm at seeing how Tang Xi cared so much for her. She held Tang Xi’s hand and said, “Don’t take their words seriously. Don’t get pissed so easily. You haven’t fully recovered yet, so don’t get angry, okay?”
Last night, she had looked up on the Internet and discovered that some fairies would become weak after losing their powers. Besides that, if she got angry, she would hurt her body, so Rourou shouldn’t get angry so easily. With this in mind, Yang Jingxian wanted to take Tang Xi home instead of leaving her here alone.
Tang Xi smiled sweetly in response to Yang Jingxian’s words. She held onto the latter’s arm and whispered, “Mom, don’t worry about me. With my power, no one can anger me.”
Yang Jingxian was relieved to hear this. She told Tang Xi to take care before turning to walk down the stairs, taking out her cell phone to call Xiao Hongli as she went.
Tang Xi turned to look at the door of Lin Ru’s ward, where Xi Luoxian was still asking Xiao Hongyi what he was going to do regarding this time’s matter. Xiao Hongyi pursed his lips as he replied, “I don’t know yet. I’ll ask Ah Ru about it when she wakes up. After all, this is her business.”
Tang Xi frowned. “Yes, we should ask my mom about her opinion when she wakes up, but right now you have to call the police to deal with the fact that she was pushed downstairs. If you can’t deal with this properly, the other matters can’t be solved either.”
Xi Luoxian raised an eyebrow and glanced at Tang Xi, who looked back at her and then, still wearing a frown, continued, “If this matter can’t be dealt with properly, they’ll be no way to investigate the other matters. Only after they’re put in jail can we investigate those things.”
Xi Luoxian frowned as she looked deeply at Tang Xi and asked, “What are you going to investigate?”
“Why Xiao Rou and Xiao Jinning were confused with each other twenty-three years ago.”
