Tang Xiao was about to exclaim his shock when suddenly the door to the room was pushed open and Yi Baiqi was seen running over with a few guards behind her.
She stood before Tang Xiao facing Tang Hao Xie, "Are you fine?" She asked worridely.
She angrilly shouted while turning to face Tang Xiao, "Why are all you guards standing like statues? Capture the assaign!"
She was just about to face the assaign, when she heard a choked voice, "Mom!!". Her heart trembled and she lost her footing, Tang Hao Xie was fast enough to catch her but Yi Baiqi was trembling in her hands.
Yi Baiqi stared at the man in front of her and spoke with a trembling voice to Tang Hao Xie, "Do you know him?"
Tang Hao Xie was in a dillema as Tang Xiao and Yi Baiqi were both behaving abnormally, Tang Xiao was staring at Yi Baiqi's face stupidly and Yi Baiqi was trembling...
By noticing Tang Xiao's gaze, all the guards mentally planned to dug out the eyes of the man in front of them who was staring at their mistress. Tang Xiao was caught unprepared by the guards as he was lost in the face which he hadn't seen in past 15 years... But after being caught he regained his warm appearance and shited his gaze towards Tang Hao Xie and smiled, "They are looking for their end... Can you stop them?" he asked as though the guards were small children and he was an elder.
Tang Hao Xie looked at him, "You dare?" she smirked.
Tang Xiao was speechless and squinted his eyes... 'Am I really your brother?' , He lowered his head, "Sis, how can you be so heartless? Come on! Tell them to release me!!"
Before Tang Hao Xie could say something she saw a hand landing on Tang Xiao's face... Tang Xiao had never thought that someone would slap him and wanted to give it bak but when he saw the giver, he was stunned.
Everyone in the room were dazed as they never thought their ever warm mistress, Yi Baiqi would go and slap Tang Xiao, even Tang Hao Xie was amazed as she knew Tang Xiao better than anyone, till now there was no one who was able to attack on his face, he cared for his face more than a women would...
Yi Baiqi didn't stop after that slap and started hitting Tang Xiao while tears falling from her eyes... Tang Xiao was speechless...'Can someone tell him, why was he being hit? And by the one who looked like his mother too? Da*n! He could not hit back! She looked like his mom...'
Tang Hao Xie could no longer take it and tried to stop Yi Baiqi, but just as she tried, Yi Baiqi who was hitting Tang Xiao suddenly turned towards her. She shouted in her mind, 'Am done for...'.
Tang Xiao without thinking twice pulled Tang Hao Xie behind him, "You can hit me but not her."
Yi Baiqi stopped crying and muttered, "What right do you have to stop me?"
Tang Xiao was stunned, 'That's right! What right did he have? Although he knew Tang Hao Xie was his sister, but do these people know? No! Will these people believe? He hoped they will believe but the truth was that they will not...' ,"I..." He could not even find the courage to speak, so he looked at Tang Hao Xie for help but soon he was disappointing as Tang Hao Xie was focused on Yi Baiqi's changing expression.
Tang Xiao faced Yi Baiqi, "Although I have no relation to her and no right to meddle between your family matter but I take her as my sister..."
He was cut off by a tight slap which landed on his face making the corner of his lip bleed, "Impudent! How dare you cut your ties with your family? Tang Xiao! You brat! Very Well! First you run off from your marriage, then come back after so many years and even after returning, instead of apologizing you are here announcing that you are not a member of my Tang Clan!!" Tang Qi Yao was angrily glaring at him, 'He had come running over here after hearing about an assassin in his daughter's room but as soon as he entered, he heard a man saying : No right to meddle in your family matter... He was not angry because of this but because this man was non other than his eldest child, the brat who had ran away from his marriage... He wanted to vent his anger so he slapped his son...'
"Humph! Xie'er look! You had asked your mother about how your elder brother was this afternoon, right? Look at this stinking brat! Just after a few years he had become a man who don't even know to kneel in front of his parents!" Saying so, he raised his leg and kicked Tang Xiao on his knee which caused Tang Xiao to kneel immediately.
How could Tang Xiao endure it silently? "Old man! How dare you make me kneel? There are no less than million people who come to beg me, Tang Xiao to treat them! Yet you dare make me kneel? Look at yourself! In just a few years, your body will become old, then you will be coming to beg me to cure you! Humph!" Just as he finished, he had thought that the man in front of him would give him a face, but who would have thought that instead of face he will receive another slap on his face, "Old man? Who did you call an old man? And beg you to cure me? Brat! Just a few years and you are like this! If this lord didn't teach you then this lord will never be called Tang Qi Yao! Humph!"
This time Tang Xiao was even more arrogant as he sarcastically commented, "Then old man, find yourself a new name..." as a result he was gifted with another slap...
Yi Baiqi could no longer see her son getting hurt and scolded, "Who are you to hit my son? I hitted him because he didn't came to me to visit but why are you hitting him?"
Tang Hao Xie was also shocked by the last few scenes as she never expected this would happen, Tang Xiao, her real brother and 'Tang Xiao', 'Tang Hao Xie's' brother looked same...
This world was truly a world of coincidence...
