Yang Jingxian widened her eyes in shock and Tang Ya gaped too. She looked at Qiao Yuxin and laughed awkwardly. “Haha, you must be kidding. Rourou just came back more than half a year ago. How is it possible that they are seeing each other for half a year? And I don’t think Mr. Qiao would notice Rourou when she just came back.”
Tang Ya didn’t know what to say. Rourou came back merely more than half a year ago. She couldn’t believe that Rourou had found a boyfriend.
And more importantly, her boyfriend was Qiao Liang, Prince Charming Qiao! She had been trying to fix Rourou up with Liu Chengyu who had been chasing her.
As a good friend of Liu Chengyu’s mother, she knew him well. He was an excellent young man. She was on good terms with his parents and his mother was her college classmate and good friend. Besides, his mother liked Rourou very much. But now someone suddenly came to tell her that her daughter had had a boyfriend half a year ago!?
“You’re being modest. We know what a good girl Rourou is.” Qiao Yuxin said with a smile. “All doctors said I wouldn’t be able to stand up again, but Rourou gave me acupuncture and massage every day and helped me stand up again! Qiao Liang has no reason not to love such a kind kid!”
Qiao Yuxin thought what she said was not enough to show how good Xiao Rou was, so she continued, “Rourou treats me as well as to her own mother, and I also takes her as my daughter. Every time she comes to visit me, I’ll prepare her a seafood meal. Now since she and Qiao Liang love each other, why don’t we hold a wedding for them? Then we can be one family.”
She looked at Yang Jingxian and Tang Ya who still gaped and said with a smile, “Isn’t it great for our Qiao Family and your Xiao Family to become one?”
“Mom, Mommy, Aunt Qiao, hello.” As soon as Qiao Yuxin said this, Tang Xi pushed the door open and came in.
Yang Jingxian and Tang Ya turned their eyes to Tang Xi at the same time and remained expressionless…
Qiao Yuxin waved at Tang Xi and asked her lovingly, “I brought you your favorite lobster. How’s the seafood congee yesterday?”
Tang Xi blinked and immediately nodded. “Very delicious.”
Yang Jingxian looked at Qiao Yuxin. “Do you bring food to Rourou every day?”
Qiao Yuxin smiled. “It’s a hard job to shoot a movie, and the food here is not very as good as home-made meals. The only thing I can do for Rourou is to bring some food to her every day.” Then she blinked at Tang Xi. “Are you satisfied with your future mother-in-law?”
Tang Xi nodded, and then she realized what Qiao Yuxin just said. She looked at Qiao Yuxin awkwardly, swallowed and pretended not to understand what she said. “Huh?”
Tang Ya was glad to see Qiao Liang and Tang Xi get along well. She came over and beckoned Tang Xi to sit beside her on the sofa. “Rourou, Aunt Qiao just said you were seeing Qiao Liang. Is it true?”
Tang Xi looked at Qiao Yuxin in shock. Aunt Qiao had told her mom and mommy that?
Qiao Yuxin gave her a reassuring smile. “I knew you hid this from your family, but now you’re already twenty-four years and Qiao Liang is twenty-eight. It’s time for you two to get married. I happened to meet your two mothers today, so I told them of your relationship.”
“I see.” Tang Xi nodded, then turned her eyes to Tang Ya and Yang Jingxian and grinned guiltily. “Mom, in fact, I planned to tell you this after I finished shooting this movie.”
“When did you two begin to date?” Yang Jingxian asked.
Tang Xi said, “I forget. It seems to be when I was just discharged from the sanatorium.”
She remembered at that time Qiao Liang rushed into the room and she happened to wake up from a coma. Seeing Qiao Liang, she couldn’t help bursting into tears. Qiao Liang immediately recognized who she was and she then confessed her secret to him. The two were doomed to be together since that night.
They had met each other a long time ago. He had been taking her as Tang Xi and she had been taking him as the man she loved.
“Really?” Yang Jingxian recalled. Yes, Qiao Yuxin did come to visit Rourou, but she didn’t remember that Qiao Liang had come too. Why did the two begin to date as soon as Rourou was discharged from the sanatorium?
“How did you two know each other?” Yang Jingxian frowned.
Tang Xi blinked and began to make up stories. “Well, I had seen Qiao Liang twice because of Jing, and he fell in love with me at first sight. So he confessed his love to me.”
Qiao Yuxin was excited to hear this. “So it was Ah Liang who took the first move?”
Tang Xi nodded with a smile. “Yes, you know I’m very reserved.”
Tang Ya scowled. “We don’t want to listen to your love story. I just want to know why you didn’t tell us you already had a boyfriend.”
Tang Xi swallowed and chuckled. “I was still a student, so I was afraid you would object to our relationship.”
“So who is the man who sends you to school and picks you up every day…”
“He is the bodyguard that Qiao Liang arranged for me. I was injured in school. He was worried about my safety and had his assistant protect me. Now he has become my assistant.”
After all, Little Six was a very able man!
Tang Ya looked at Tang Xi. It had been quite a while before she sighed. “I think you’d better give us an explanation.”
“Can I do it later?” Tang Xi looked at her two mothers and then gave Yang Jingxian a pitiful look as if asking for her help.
Yang Jingxian shook her head, signaling her that she couldn’t help her.
Tang Xi closed her eyes and said helplessly, “In fact, my brother is in love too. I think you should pay more attention to him! After all, he is older than me!”
“Which brother of yours?” Yang Jingxian asked.
“Of course it’s Yao.” Tang Xi chuckled and looked at the excited Yang Jingxian. “And his girlfriend is also a cast member of this movie. Mom, do you want to see her?”
Yang Jingxian looked at Tang Xi. “You are not kidding me, are you?”
