Chapter 18: I Know I’m Handsome, But I’m Your Brother

Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee

The war ended when Yang Jingxian came downstairs. The final solution was that the three brothers would take Tang Xi to school together. In fact, however, Tang Xi really wanted to tell them that she would rather go to school by herself.

She really didn’t want to cause a sensation in school.

The three brothers were even more handsome than many male stars. If they took her to school, her classmates would be so jealous of her!

After Tang Xi told them for the 180th time that she wanted to go to school by herself, the car stopped at the gate of the First High School of City A. Tang Xi helplessly pursed her lips and looked at her three brothers, asking, “Brothers, are you sure you want to go in with me?”

‘It’s better if you don’t go in. I’d rather go in alone.’

Xiao Yao nodded and said, “Yes, this is your school. I’ll have to check it out.”

Xiao Sa, seated in the passenger seat, also nodded excitedly and returned her gaze affectionately. “I’m on good terms with your principal. I’ll tell your principal to take care of you.”

Not to be outdone, Xiao Jing quickly said, “I’m a shareholder of this school. I’ll take you to sign up, then all the teachers of your school will treat you very carefully. Otherwise, I’ll have them fired!”

“Stop!” Tang Xi stared at the three men. “You are literally courting envy for me! You just don’t want me to do my work, right?”

Xiao Yao frowned and said, “No, of course not.”

They had come here to back her up and let the people here know that she had a strong background, so that she wouldn’t be bullied.

After all, she grew up in the countryside, so she was very likely to be ostracized by the children of the powerful and wealthy families. If they brought her to the school, even if her classmates wanted to exclude her, they wouldn’t dare to do so blatantly.

“Well, I don’t know how to explain to you.” Tang Xi opened the door and got off. “Since you have come here, you can come in with me. But Sa and Jing must not do what you said just now, alright?”

Xiao Sa shrugged and replied. “Okay, I won’t do it if you don’t like it.”

Xiao Jing also nodded. “Okay. Tell me when you can’t stand it, then I’ll help you.”

Tang Xi nodded with satisfaction. “Let’s go to Class 3, Grade 1.”

Xiao Yao nodded and led Tang Xi into the school.

Xia Yao had investigated Tang Xi’s past. According to her high school entrance examination results, she could be admitted into First High School. However, she took the high school entrance examination this year. He wondered how many years she had spent in junior high school...

In fact, Tang Xi also knew about this point, which was actually a mistake that 008 made. Since 008 prepared her a diploma, he should have given her a diploma issued a few years ago! Yet he gave her a diploma issued this year. That was so strange. But only in this way could she enter a high school...

Thinking of her future high school life, she felt a little excited!

“What are you thinking of?” Xiao Yao glanced at her and asked in a low voice.

Enjoying the scenery of First High School, Tang Xi replied, “I’m wondering whether I should directly skip to Grade 3 or not.” She then took back her gaze. The scenery here was good, but not as good as that in Empire High School. She was a legend in Empire High School. Would it be the same after she entered First High School?

Hehe...

Tang Xi turned back to look at Xiao Sa who had snickered. “Sa, you don’t believe me?”

Xiao Sa hurriedly shook his head as he said, “No, no, Rourou, you’re really ambitious! You spent so many years to graduate from junior middle school, and now you want to skip grades in high school!”

Tang Xi complained about 008 in her heart again. Why not just give her a college diploma? Then she could start from graduate school! But he gave her a junior high school diploma! What a shame!

In particular, she had two brothers who would take every chance to taunt her!

“Sa!” Tang Xi grit her teeth. “I just didn’t want to leave school! So I spent two more years there!”

Xiao Sa still wanted to continue, but finally shut up under Xiao Yao’s glare. Tang Xi grunted, “Sa, you know what, I’ll get the high school diploma in a year, and then I’ll be admitted into University A! Would you like to make a bet with me?”

“Hey, Rourou, I know you’re triggered by Sa, but don’t...”

“What?” Tang Xi pursed her lips. “I know you don’t dare to take the bet!”

“What’ll you bet?” Xiao Sa asked, raising his eyebrows.

“I have nothing now. But if I get the diploma in one year, you must grant me a wish!” Tang Xi’s eyes sparkled as she said, “What do you think, Sa?”

Xiao Sa nodded. “Deal!”

He then gave a mischievous smile as he asked, “Rourou, what if you lose?”

“I won’t lose.” An enchanting smiled appeared on Tang Xi’s face. “If I lose, I can do whatever you want me to do.”

“Okay!” Xiao Sa nodded with a smile. “If you lose, you have to call me ‘sweetheart’ in front of the whole school!”

“Ridiculous!” Xiao Yao gave Xiao Sa a dark look. “That’s ridiculous!”

Tang Xi didn’t care. She smiled and said, “No problem!”

“Sweetheart...” Xiao Jing repeated the word and shivered. “Hey, my dear sister, are you sure? This is supposed to be said to your boyfriend... Okay, I’m wrong, I’m wrong.”

A trace of a smile flickered across Tang Xi’s eyes. Soon, the siblings had walked to the teaching building. Sure enough, the gorgeous Xiao brothers caused a sensation...

Although Tang Xi was not particularly beautiful, she also attracted much attention from the boys because of her good skin and cute face.

“Who is that girl? Why is she accompanied by three men?”

“That girl’s skin is so good. Although she is not very beautiful, her skin is really good!”

“That man looks familiar. Isn’t he President Qiao’s assistant, Xiao Jing?”

“He is not his assistant. I heard that he is President Qiao’s buddy!”

“How do you know this?”

“I’m not interested in the business community, but I’m interested in handsome guys. Mr. Xiao and Prince Charming Qiao are both my type.” The girl who spoke covered her face shyly as her eyes sparkled.

“Prince Charming Qiao belongs to everyone. He is not just your type!”

Listening to their conversation, Tang Xi frowned. Was the ‘Prince Charming Qiao’ they were talking about Qiao Liang? Tang Xi turned to look at Xiao Jing. Were Xiao Jing and Qiao Liang good friends?

Xiao Jing shivered at Tang Xi’s gaze. He rubbed at the goosebumps which had suddenly popped up on his arm and said with great seriousness, “What are you looking at? I know I’m handsome! But I am your brother!”
