Chapter 470: Played Lovey-Dovey For the Hundredth Time
Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee
Tang Xi paused and looked up at Xiao Yao in surprise, forgetting to answer his question. Xiao Yao stood quietly upstairs and waited for Tang Xi’s reaction. Looking at the stunned Tang Xi, Xiao Yao slightly turned up the corners of his mouth. After two seconds, Xiao Yao said, “I’ll find you a sister-in-law that you like.”
Tang Xi nodded blankly. Xiao Yao looked at her and the smile on his face spread. Then he turned around to walk towards his room.
After walking for two steps, Xiao Yao suddenly stopped and stole glances through the rails at Tang Xi who was still frozen in surprise. He smiled and murmured, “It turns out that I’m still happy to see you react like this.”
Xiao Yao clenched his hands, slowly touched his heart and sighed, “Thank you for reacting like this. I’ll be a good brother in the future.”
Tang Xi sat on the sofa for quite a while before she finally came to herself. She hurriedly took her cell phone, initiated a chat group, added Xiao Jing and Xiao Sa into the group and sent a message, “Is Yao seeing someone? He asked me what kind of sister-in-law I like !”
Xiao Sa: How can this be possible? If he is seeing someone, how come we don’t know?”
Xiao Jing: Well, maybe he is seeing someone indeed. After all, he is a mature man. But why does he keep it from us?!”
Tang Xi clicked on the screen: “But Yao said he would give me a sister-in-law I like. I think Yao must have had a target!
Most importantly, she was too shocked to answer his question. Now thinking of his wicked look, she suddenly felt she was teased by Xiao Yao!

Xiao Jing: I don’t care who he is seeing. He must treat us to a great meal when he introduces his girlfriend to us!”
Tang Xi: I want seafood.
Xiao Sa: My dear sister, why are you so obsessed with seafood? It’s not good for your health to eat too much seafood.”
Tang Xi: …I just like it. I want seafood.
Xiao Jing: Alright, alright. By the way, just now Qiao Liang came to my office!
Xiao Sa: He is your boss. Isn’t it normal for him to go to your office?
Tang Xi read the chat record and smiled, typing: Yes, it’s abnormal if he doesn’t go to your office, isn’t it?”
Xiao Jing: No! He asked me to do his job and said he was going out for a date! And he said he would be on a business trip for several days! Rourou, are you sure he is not cheating on you? Do you need my help…
Tang Xi: No.
Xiao Sa: But he said he was going out for a date!
Tang Xi: Yes, on a date with me.
Xiao Jing: But he said he would be on a business trip! He may have a belle accompany him during the trip! Or he may go to see a belle client! You should stay vigilant! Most importantly, there isn’t such a business trip on his schedule! That’s strange!
Tang Xi could imagine Xiao Jing’s look… She casually took a pear, took a bite out of it and continued to type: I don’t need to be vigilant, because it’s not him but me who will be on a business trip. He is just accompanying me.”
She didn’t expect Qiao Liang would agree so easily when she asked him to go to the capital with her. She had thought it would be difficult.

Xiao Sa: …Sh*t, Jing, she did it again! She began to play lovey-dovey with her boyfriend again!
Xiao Jing: Yeah… for the hundredth time!
Tang Xi: ???
At this time, Xiao Jing sent a voice message. Tang Xi clicked it open and Xiao Jing’s growl was heard. “You two go to the capital for a sweet trip, but how shall we explain to our mothers and fathers?! Damn it!”
Tang Xi: …Sorry I forget about this matter. I believe you guys can solve this problem.
She forgot that besides the Xiao’s brothers, there was also her “biological brother” living in the villa who didn’t know her real identity. If she just left with Qiao Liang, it would be hard for the Xiao’s brothers to explain to Xiao Yan.
However… Tang Xi smiled and typed: I believe you can handle it. I have faith in you!
Xiao Sa: No, I don’t think I can do it.
Xiao Jing: The same as above.
Xiao Yan was a smiling tiger. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to run the Xiao’s Group well by himself after so many scandals about the company, so…
Tang Xi didn’t worry about them though. She knew they would still fix this problem in the end.
The chat group became silent. Tang Xi went to select a white shirt, a pink skirt and a windbreaker and was going to put them on to go out. It wasn’t very cold in City A in November, so this outfit of clothes was suitable to wear.
When Qiao Liang came to pick her up, she was changing, so Qiao Liang chatted with Xiao Yao in the living room. When Tang Xi went downstairs, Qiao Liang looked at her and frowned. “The capital is cold. You should wear more clothes.”
Tang Xi refused. “It’s hot in City A. I have many old clothes in the capital. I won’t be cold when I’m in the capital.”
Xiao Yao raised his eyebrows. “Have you decided to go to the capital?”
Tang Xi smiled. “Yes, I need to solve some matters before Mr. Pu snatches me back to school. And Yao, please explain to Yan for me. Thanks.”
Xiao Yao nodded. “Be careful on the way.” Then he looked at Qiao Liang and said earnestly, “Please take care of Rourou for us.”
Qiao Liang took a look at Xiao Yao and took Tang Xi’s hand. “We’ll be going. Bye.”
As soon as they got into the car, Xiao Yan’s car stopped at the gate. Xiao Yan got out of the car, looked at the car that had sped away and raised his eyebrows. Seeing Xiao Yan, Xiao Yao asked, “Yan, why did you come back at this hour?”
Xiao Yan took back his gaze. “Qiao Liang seems to visit our home a lot recently. Why does he come to our home?”
Xiao Yao went into the house. “Xiao Jing forgot a contract at home, so Qiao Liang came to take it on the way to negotiation. Why did you come back home so early today?”
“I came back to fetch some files. I’m going to Switzerland on business for a week. A watch brand wants to open a store in our shopping mall. This deal concerns our company’s plan for the next three years, so I need to go investigate it myself.” Xiao Yan changed shoes only to find Tang Xi was not home. He raised his eyebrows, asking, “Where is Rourou?”

A Girl and Her Food
When a lost girl wakes up without a name, she quickly finds herself alone in a way that people around her can’t fix. Without a real plan and desperate to find what’s wrong with her, she thrashes and bites to stay alive. But human beings are weak things, that band together for strength, no matter who we are. Now if only she could work up the courage to ask one question... It’s normal to get stronger when you drink the blood of monsters. Right? Things to expect: - A powerful but kinda neurotic and emotional protagonist, with some degree of weak to strong. Or maybe strong to stronger, honestly. She's pretty rational and practical about things but won't always make the best decisions, so be warned if you super-dislike characters doing dumb stuff for emotional reasons sometimes. - Lots of dialogue and characterization, especially as we get more into it. It's focused on a single POV, but there might be some sections of other POVs later on, I'm not sure right now. - Magic is on the softer side, but I'll try to keep things fleshed out enough to avoid any obvious "well-established magic could have seemingly instantly solved this problem" moments. - I didn't add the mystery tag because I feel like it implies that this is a detective novel or something, but the story is absolutely incredibly opaque at times. So you'll have the most fun if you go into it trying to puzzle out the nature of events before they're explicitly explained!😇 - Also, I added the genre for completion, but it's gonna take a while to get to the romance. Please wait warmly and have some tea. Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge!

"I know you're a virgin but have you never been touched?" He asked, sliding his other hand down onto her leg. "What makes you say that?" Kat breathed, bracing her hands on the counter. "You react like someone who's never felt another's touch," Nex whispered, slipping his thumb under the band of her shorts. "So, have you not?" Kat opened her mouth to speak but stopped when his hand slid up from her leg, gliding up her stomach and stopping just below her breast. "Not even here?" He asked, following the curve of her breast with one finger, not touching, staying just below as he dragged it back and forth. "What about here?" He asked, sliding his hand down from her ribs to the bottom of her shorts then around to her butt, fingers nearly grazing it as he inched them up, under her pajamas. "I can say with certainty, never here," he said, lowering his other hand under the waistband of her shorts, touching the top of her underwear. "No, you've definitely never felt that before. I can hear your heart racing, I can feel your breathing, I can smell your body responding like it's never experienced these sensations before," he whispered, sliding a finger just underneath the band.
