Mo Jianing's livestream ended abruptly.
The little suns, eager to share and chat, immediately migrated to various social media platforms.
They not only profusely shared the news of Madame Camille visiting Xia Qingtian as soon as she arrived in Z country, but also couldn't resist posting pictures, marveling at Xia Qingtian's stunning beauty.
The calls for Xia Qingtian to return to work were also surging to their peak, wave after wave.
It was only when Xia Qingtian received screenshots from others that she learned she had once again trended online.
She was perplexed, wondering how the internet knew Madame Camille and Amiya had visited her. Even she only learned about the guests at her home when she received a call from Aunt Liu just before their arrival.
She had class at school today and had left early. She had just finished her afternoon classes when she received Aunt Liu's call.
"Guests? My guests?" Xia Qingtian was still a bit dazed when she received Aunt Liu's call. It was only after hearing Aunt Liu's description that Xia Qingtian suddenly understood: "Okay, I'll head back then."
"Qingtian, let's go~" Li Xiaoxiao said as she packed her things. "Er Ya said she's waiting for you today, she still wants to..."
"I'm sorry!" Xia Qingtian clasped her hands together, her face full of apology. "I can't go to your place today. Please tell Er Ya for me, I have guests at home and need to get back quickly."
"Ah? Is that so..." Li Xiaoxiao nodded. "Alright then, I'll tell Er Ya for you. It should be nothing important."
After speaking with Li Xiaoxiao, Xia Qingtian quickly left school and returned to the Xia residence.
Li Xiaoxiao also went home with her backpack. Upon arriving home, Li Xiaoxiao informed them that Xia Qingtian had guests and wouldn't be coming over for the time being.
Er Ya then exploded.
"What's this! Didn't you promise to keep me company today!" Er Ya was indignant, hands on her hips. "It's always like this! The moment something comes up, you toss me aside! I have feelings too! I'm angry!"
"Er Ya, Qingtian seemed quite rushed when she left. It must be some important guests. Don't make a fuss. How about I treat you to mala xiang guo tonight?" Li Xiaoxiao could only try to placate Er Ya.
"No!" Er Ya puffed out her cheeks. "I have to go and see who these guests are this time. If that scoundrel brought some helpers, I'll just go all out!"
Er Ya was convinced it was that Miao Tong fellow who was deliberately causing trouble.
That guy, relying on being Xia Shang's younger brother, always picked on her!
People named Miao were all full of wicked ideas!
"All out!" Da Ya chimed in from the side, nodding in agreement.
"Da Ya, don't make things worse," Li Xiaoxiao felt a headache coming on.
"I'm leaving. I might not be back tonight, so don't wait for me," Er Ya said, then stomped off without looking back.
"I'm going too!" Da Ya was about to chase after Er Ya when Li Xiaoxiao grabbed her shoulder.
"Stay here! You're not going anywhere! Didn't you hear what Qingtian said earlier? If the two of you go out together, and someone with ulterior motives sees you, both of you will be in danger." Li Xiaoxiao held Da Ya, who was determined to run out, with one hand while fumbling for her phone with the other. "No, I need to contact Qingtian. Oh dear... where's my phone?"
"Let go of me," Da Ya said.
"I told you no, it's dangerous outside." Li Xiaoxiao said helplessly. "You sisters are one more impulsive than the other. Er Ya is hot-headed and prone to causing trouble, and you're disobedient. Can we just not do this anymore?"
"Li Xiaoxiao, let go of me." Da Ya's voice was cold, her gaze towards Li Xiaoxiao deep.
"Huh?" Li Xiaoxiao was taken aback by this voice. She looked at Da Ya's face again. "You... you've recovered your memories?"
"Yes." The person standing before Li Xiaoxiao was no longer the Da Ya she was familiar with, but Tang Youxi, the Ming Master of the Tang family. "You can let go now."
Although she could easily break free from Li Xiaoxiao's grip, she was also worried she might hurt her if she wasn't careful.
After all, although Li Xiaoxiao seemed a bit slow-witted most of the time, and Li Zhong wasn't much of a cook, this sibling pair had taken good care of her when she had amnesia.
"Oh, oh, oh, my apologies." Li Xiaoxiao immediately withdrew her hand and gave a dry chuckle.
Da Ya now had no time to bother with Li Xiaoxiao; she had more pressing concerns.
Tang Youli, the hidden master of the Tang family and her twin sister.
If anything were to happen to her, it would be her who had to return to the Tang family to take charge.
She seemed even less intelligent than Li Xiaoxiao!
Although she might have been happy with Er Ya during her amnesia, Er Ya's impulsive and unserious nature meant she was definitely not someone who could shoulder great responsibility.
She herself was already poisoned throughout her body, and her remaining days were numbered.
The possibility of training Er Ya into a qualified family head within the limited time she had was zero.
Then what was the point of her struggling so hard up to this point?
She was determined to find the hidden master of the Tang family and entrust the family to her, hoping to prevent the family from falling into the hands of those treacherous traitors.
But if she were to entrust it to Er Ya, the result might just be sacrificing Er Ya's life.
And the fate of the Tang family would remain unchanged.
At this thought, Tang Youxi felt a dull ache in her chest, and a taste of blood welled up in her throat.
No hope for the future, no hope for the Tang family.
Even if she died, she would have no face to meet the ancestors of the Tang family, nor the grandfather who, despite expelling clan members and breaking precedent, had sent the young her to the position of family head.
No, she couldn't die!
She absolutely could not die, could not hand over the Tang family to Er Ya, and could not hand over the Tang family's vast foundation to those ungrateful beasts.
As long as she lived, none of this was set in stone.
She had to find a solution quickly and turn the tide.
Absolutely, she could not die!
"Da Ya, no." Li Xiaoxiao put her arm around Tang Youxi's arm. "That, your complexion doesn't look too good, are you getting a headache again?"
Tang Youxi was stunned when her arm was suddenly linked. She immediately looked at Li Xiaoxiao, a feeling she couldn't quite describe surging within her.
She had been the Ming Master of the Tang family for over a decade, rarely showing her true face and keeping everyone around her at a distance.
Although such behavior was common during her amnesia, it had almost never happened when she was lucid.
It was quite... peculiar...
"If you have a headache, you should go back to bed and lie down," Li Xiaoxiao said nervously. "Otherwise, if you lose your memory again and cling to me like Da Ya, it'll be quite a struggle for me to carry you alone without Zhong."
Tang Youxi's lips twitched: Please give me back my sense of being touched.
Despite thinking this, Tang Youxi still entered the room and lay down obediently on the bed.
