Chapter 536: Commendation Conference
Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee
“Of course I’m not kidding you.” Tang Xi’s eyes had a sly gleam. She came up to Yang Jingxian, took her hand and said in a lowered voice, “Yao has had a girlfriend for over three months. You really have no idea of this?”
She didn’t feel guilty at all for selling out Xiao Yao and He Wanyi, because firstly, she knew He Wanyi wouldn’t be angry at her, and she might even appreciate her because she let Xiao Yao’s family know her existence, and secondly, Yao always doted on her, so he wouldn’t be angry at her either.
So she didn’t hesitate to sell them out to distract the mothers.
“Oh? Really?” Tang Ya was happy to hear that too. Although Xiao Yan didn’t marry either, he had, had girlfriends, but Xiao Yao had never had a girlfriend. This was a big problem of the Xiao Family, even bigger than Rourou’s love life.
They surely knew Tang Xi was trying to distract them, but this was truly breaking news for them and they simply couldn’t ignore this news, although they didn’t want to let Rourou off so easily.
Tang Xi nodded seriously. “Sure, I never lied.”
“Just tell us who she is. How did you know Yao is in a relationship with her? Is she also a cast member of this movie?” Yang Jingxian couldn’t stop asking.
Tang Xi gave a mysterious smile. “Let me call her and ask her to come here. Then you’ll know who she is.”
Yang Jingxian shook her head with a laugh. “Hey, don’t keep us guessing. Just tell me!”
Tang Xi chuckled. “Okay, okay, no hurries, Mom.” Then she paused and went on. “What I can tell you now is that this girl has been in love with Yao for many years, and several months ago, Yao suddenly accepted her love and then they were together.”

“Really?” Yang Jingxian frowned. “Yao is too introverted. He always keeps everything to himself and no one can change his mind. When he was still a kid, he decided on his own to go to the capital for study without even telling us, and then he decided to serve in the army… If he hadn’t been injured last time, I wouldn’t even know he was already a lieutenant colonel. And this time, he…”
Yang Jingxian sighed. “If you hadn’t told me this, I might not have known who his girlfriend is until the day of his wedding.”
Tang Xi chuckled and went to make a call.
Having the same feeling towards their sons, Qiao Yuxin and Tang Ya both nodded.
Qiao Yuxin said, “Exactly, we sent Ah Liang abroad when he was still a little kid, so he wasn’t emotionally close to us at all and even if he came back home, he didn’t bother to speak to us. Then… his father betrayed us, and he had to come back to fight with his father and take care of me, his disabled, useless mother. Alas, I think I owe my son too much.”
“Your son is an excellent young man. His father’s betrayal must be a big blow to him, but he put his emotions aside, saved the Qiao’s International Group that was going bankrupt with his own strength, and brought it to the peak. He is really great.” Tang Ya gasped in admiration. In her mind, Qiao Liang was a real legend in the business circle.
Yang Jingxian also nodded. “Yes, that must have been a hard time for him. Although I don’t know much about Qiao Liang, I remembered Xiao Jing once said that he was sick back then. When he came back, you became disabled in a car accident, his father stole your family’s company and no company was willing to invest in the Qiao’s International Group. He found investments from abroad and brought the company back to life.”

When Tang Xi came back, she happened to witness a commendation conference for Qiao Liang.
Listening to their words, she smiled and sat among the three of them, saying with a smile, “Yeah, Qiao Liang is so good. How can I not love him? No girl can resist such a perfect man, can they?”
“You shameless girl.” Tang Ya patted her head and Tang Xi shrugged naughtily. “I’m twenty-four years old, and I’m old enough to be married. Just as what you said, do the right things at the right time. So now I choose to get married at this age.”
“Oh, our little Rourou wants to get married.” Tang Ya laughed. Then she thought of something and sighed. “If only your brother Yan thinks the same way as you! He just stays in the company all day long and doesn’t spend time with his girlfriend. If I were his girlfriend, I would have broken up with him. He should learn from your father who tried to spend every minute with me when he was chasing me. Every time I spoke to a boy, he would pop up and drive that boy away. Once a man gifted me flowers, and he just threw the flowers out through the window, it even hit some pedestrians.”
Yang Jingxian raised her eyebrows. “Haha, I didn’t know Brother could be so romantic.”
Qiao Yuxin looked at Tang Ya admiringly. “Your husband is so nice to you.” Then she sighed. “I always wanted to choose a reliable and down-to-earth man to marry, so I chose Qiao Liang’s father, but it turned out that he was actually a villain. If I had known what happened later before, I would have chosen the man I really loved and spent the rest of my life with him.”
Tang Xi patted her hand to comfort her.
Qiao Yuxin shook her head at Tang Xi with a smile, telling her she was alright. Just then, the door of the room was opened and He Wanyi’s lively voice rang. “What delicious food has Qiao Liang’s mother brought to you? Did you call me here to share with me… Well…” He Wanyi looked at the three mothers sitting in the lounge, paused and then hurriedly greeted them. “Hello, Aunt Tang. Hello, Aunt Yang and hello, Aunt Qiao.”
At the very moment Yang Jingxian saw He Wanyi, she stood up in surprise. Then she gave a questioning look to Tang Xi.
