Chapter 472: Panicked Miss Tang
Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee
Tang Xi sweat. “What a coincidence.” Xiao Yan happened to go to the capital in transit and come to the same airport lounge as them. Then did it mean that Yan would take the same flight with them?!
Just then, Xiao Yan who had been reading a magazine suddenly looked at them. Tang Xi hurriedly looked away. Why did you keep looking at Yan?! Now you aroused his suspicions!
Seeing Tang Xi look away, Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows and continued to read the magazine, but then it seemed that something suddenly occurred to him and he looked at Tang Xi again. He then put away the magazine and walked towards them.
Tang Xi who had been secretly looking at Xiao Yan now panicked. She grabbed her cell phone and gritted her teeth, speaking to Qiao Liang in a lowered voice, “He is coming over to us! What should we do?!”
As Xiao Yan was going up to Tang Xi, Qiao Liang who disguised as Tang Xi’s bodyguard stood in Xiao Yan’s way and said to him coldly, “Sir, sorry, what can I do for you?”
Xiao Yan took a look at Qiao Liang and said with a smile, “Please don’t take me the wrong way. I mean no offense.”
Qiao Liang remained expressionless and didn’t respond to him. Xiao Yan looked a little embarrassed. Tang Xi tugged on Qiao Liang’s arm and said gently, “It’s okay.”
Qiao Liang frowned and made way for Xiao Yan. Tang Xi looked up at Xiao Yan and gave him a polite smile. “Sir, what can I do for you?”
“I realised you had been looking at me.” Xiao Yan gazed at Tang Xi. “And I also realised that you look like someone I know.”

“Who?” Tang Xi looked at him with a smile.
“My sister.” Xiao Yan said.
Tang Xi was stunned and Qiao Liang frowned. Tang Xi raised her eyebrows and smiled. “No one said I looked like someone else except you. I think it’s perhaps because I’m too beautiful.”
Qiao Liang, “…”
Xiao Yan paused and smiled. “Really? But you do look like my sister.”
Tang Xi raised her eyebrows. “Do you know who I am?”
“You’re the Miss of the Tang Family. I certainly know who you are.” Xiao Yan smiled. “I almost mistook you as my sister, because you two are really similar, no matter in temperament or personality. I think you two will make good friends once you meet her.”
Tang Xi smiled. “Then I hope I can meet your sister next time.”
Xiao Yan knew she was implying that she didn’t want to continue the conversation anymore, so he nodded with a smile and then asked, “Then Miss Tang, may I ask why you kept looking at me just now?”
Tang Xi paused. She didn’t expect Xiao Yan to insist on getting the answer from her. She smiled gracefully and looked at Xiao Yan. “In fact, Sir, you look like one of my brothers, so I kept on looking at you. You remind me of my brother. I’m sorry if I disturbed you.”
“I’d like to meet your brother if possible.” Xiao Yan said with a smile.
Tang Xi shook her head. “I’m afraid you won’t be able to meet him. He has already passed away… many years ago.”
The smile on Xiao Yan’s face froze. Tang Xi looked at him and tried to suppress her inner sorrow, apologizing to him, “I’m sorry, I don’t mean to offend…”

“It’s alright. I’m sorry I reminded you of a sad memory.” Xiao Yan said and took a look at Tang Xi. “It seems that I don’t have the chance to meet your brother.”
Tang Xi smiled and said goodbye to him. After Xiao Yan left, Qiao Liang looked at Tang Xi and laughed. Tang Xi asked him, “Why do you laugh?”
“Xiao Yan must be upset now.” Qiao Liang took a deep gaze at Tang Xi. “He said you looked like Xiao Rou, but you said that he looked like a man who has already died.”
Tang Xi frowned and glared at him. “What I said is true. I just realised that he did look like my third brother. Perhaps my third brother has been gone for too long. I almost forgot how handsome he was.”
“Handsome?” Qiao Liang narrowed his eyes.
Tang Xi looked at the jealous Qiao Liang and shrugged helplessly. “Hey, he is my brother! Give me a break!”
“Fine!” Qiao Liang snorted in his heart. If she dared to talk about how handsome another man was in front of him again, he would send that man to hell!
After this false alarm, Tang Xi finally boarded the plane to the capital. As she guessed, Xiao Yan took the same flight with them, but fortunately, perhaps because of her cold attitude, Xiao Yan just nodded at her and closed his eyes to rest, which was exactly what Tang Xi wanted.
After the three-hour flight, Tang Xi was starving. Although the in-flight meal was delicious, she ate a lot now. She wasn’t full after taking a meal, so she took two portions of desserts, but was still hungry. She secretly decided that she must glut herself with delicacies after she got off the plane.
As soon as she got off the plane, she shivered in the cold air. She shrank her neck and wanted to hide in Qiao Liang’s arms, but then she remembered that Qiao Liang wasn’t her boyfriend but her bodyguard now, so she could only give up the idea. Seeing her trembling in coldness, Qiao Liang covered her body with the coat that he had early prepared for her. Tang Xi looked back at him and he said helplessly, “I knew you would need this.”
Tang Xi smiled, said goodbye to Xiao Yan and walked ahead. When they got into the car, Tang Xi summoned 008 and asked him to show her her current experience points.
[System: Warm prompt: Does the host want to check your experience points?]
Tang Xi clicked ‘Yes’.
System Information: Your experience poiynt: 371/800
Martial points: 10/100
Physical points: 15/100
Face points: 70/100
Figure points: 30/100
Charm points: 45/100
Revenge points: 50/100
Wealth points: 80/100
Face-slapping points: 71/100]
Tang Xi almost cursed when she saw her physical points decreased again. She exclaimed in her heart, ‘Are you kidding me?! Why did my physical points go down again?! I have been eating so much these days!’
[008: That’s because the energy you consumed needs to be replenished with food. When you’re injured, your body is damaged and your physical points will drop. You don’t think your physical points will only go up, do you? I can tell you that’s impossible!]
Tang Xi, “…”
What a trash system!
