Chapter 499: Guess
Looking at the confident look on Tao Yan’s face, Tang Xi remained expressionless and initiated 008 to ask him to check it out. However, 008 arrogantly rejected and said she had to find the answer out by herself. Tang Xi helplessly shut down the system and couldn’t help complaining about her system in her heart.
Why were other people’s systems gold fingers to them, whereas her system was like her boss?
008 only worked twice… once when she saved Xiao Yao, and again when she saved Qiao Liang. Except for these two times, he would only make trouble for or boss around her!
…
“Thank you for your help, Director. The three suspects will be moved to another jail today.” Tang Xi thanked the director of the detention house politely and turned to leave.
Tang Xi walked out of the detention house and suddenly saw a person. She was so surprised to see this person that she froze. Obviously, that person saw her too. She stopped her footsteps, said something to the old man walking beside her and walked up to Tang Xi. Tang Xi stood there and waited for her to come over. Qin Xinying looked at her with a smile but her eyes had a cold gleam. “Miss Xiao, what a coincidence.”
Tang Xi smiled and nodded. “Yes, we haven’t met since Miss Qin ‘left’ the Qiao’s International Group.”
Why were Qin Xinying and Qin Yue here?
Tang Xi clenched her hands and something suddenly occurred to her. If her guess was right… then… Tang Xi’s heart pounded hard.
Qin Xinying scowled when she heard Tang Xi’s words. If it weren’t for Tang Xi, how dare Xiao Rou mock her?! How dare she speak to her triumphantly like this?!
However…
Thinking how shocked and disappointed Xiao Rou and her family would be when they knew what she would do, Qin Xinying smiled smugly and looked at Tang Xi. “Yes, if I didn’t come here for my grandaunt’s affair, I wouldn’t have met you here.”

“Oh?” Tang Xi looked at Qin Xinying and said with a smile, “I’m afraid Miss Qin will have a wasted trip.”
Seeing Qin Xinying’s smug face, Tang Xi was almost sure about her guess and she secretly made up her mind to make a thorough investigation when she went back.
Perhaps, she didn’t become Xiao Rou by chance but it was purposely arranged by God, because…
Qin Xinying narrowed her eyes, looked at Tang Xi and asked in doubt, “Miss Xiao, do you know why I am here? Why are you so sure I will have a wasted trip?”
Tang Xi turned up the corners of her mouth and made a step forward. She approached Qin Xinying and raised his eyebrows. “Tao Yan. You came for this woman, didn’t you?”
Tang Xi took a look at her watch and then at Qin Yue, saying with a smile, “Your grandaunt looks a bit like your grandfather. No wonder the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together.”
“What do you mean?!” Qin Xinying frowned. “Miss Xiao, you’d better watch your tongue! Don’t talk nonsense just because the Qiao’s International Group is behind you!”
Tang Xi snorted and said with a smile, “Are you sure there is only the Qiao’s International Group behind me? There are also the Xiao’s Group, the Yang Family, the Ning Family, and the He Family. The whole City A is behind me. What makes you think you can threaten me?” Tang Xi paused and looked disdainfully at Qin Xinying. “Miss Qin, you overestimate yourself.”
Qin Xinying came to talk to Tang Xi to annoy her, but now she was annoyed by Tang Xi. She took a breath and sneered. “Let’s wait and see!”
With that, she turned to leave.

Tang Xi looked at Qin Xinying’s back and turned up the corners of her mouth. “You don’t have to wait. We can see the results right away.”
Qin Xinying paused and looked back at Tang Xi. At this time, the gate of the detention house was opened and a car drove out. Tang Xi pointed at the car and said with a smile, “Tao Yan, Lin Jiao and Xiao Jinning are being transferred to another jail. From today onwards, they are no longer under the control of this detention house. Do you still think you can save them now?”
Qin Xinying clenched her hands and glared at Tang Xi. The latter turned up the corners of her mouth and said with a smile, “So Miss Qin, you have had a wasted trip.”
Tao Yan was desperate to have the person behind her save her out of jail and she certainly wouldn’t let her get her way. After all, it was easy for Xiao Yao to have them transferred to another detention house!
And to her pleasure, the director of the detention house was very cooperative and soon handled the procedures for them.
Qin Xinying stamped her foot and walked towards Qin Yue. Tang Xi could imagine what she would say to Qin Yue. As she expected, Qin Yue’s face grew darker and darker. Tang Xi couldn’t help smiling. Just then, Qin Yue suddenly turned his eyes to her. Tang Xi smiled at him and turned to get into the car.
As soon as she got into the car, the smile on her face was gone. She took a look at Little Six and said, “Go back to my family’s mansion!”
…
In the private plane, Tang Zhenhua stared at the person in the photo and his hands were trembling. Seeing him being like this, Tang Zhong came up and said, “Master, don’t be too agitated. Maybe…”
“No, look at this kid’s photo when she was young. She looks exactly the same as Suhua!” Tang Zhenhua pointed at the photo. He had investigated all members of the Xiao Family, but didn’t see their photos. If he hadn’t investigated them because he wanted to know more about Xixi’s “parents”, he wouldn’t have seen this photo…
Tang Zhong took a look at the photo and nodded. “Master, calm down. If she is really Miss’ aunt, Miss won’t have to leave you.”
Tang Zhenhua nodded. “Yes, yes.” If this woman was really his long lost daughter, Xixi didn’t have to switch between two identities and could stay with him.
So he had finally found his daughter?
Thank God!
Xixi became Xiao Rou and brought his daughter back!
…
Tang Xi rushed back to the mansion. The others were all happy to see her back. Tang Xi looked at Lin Ru and wondered how to tell her about her guess.
Lin Ru took Tang Xi’s hand and asked with concern, “Why do you come back? Yao said you wouldn’t come back.”
Tang Xi held her shoulders. “I have something to tell you. Let’s go to my room.”
