The one I met in Japan four days ago.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, she still remembered Xiao Tian because he was an interesting young man in her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, that’s me.” Xiao Tian did not expect to meet Xi Xingyi so quickly like that. “Are you alone?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes.” Xi Xingyi responded as she nodded her head. “I’m currently waiting for Nichang to arrive.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Nichang? Do you mean lady Leng Nichang?” Xiao Tian asked curiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes.” Like before, Xi Xingyi gave an honest answer again. “She is one of my subordinates.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I see.” Xiao Tian finally knew that the Sun Auction House belonged to the Xi family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why are you still standing? Sit down and accompany me.” Xi Xingyi thought getting a companion was not a bad idea because it was boring waiting for Leng Nichang alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sure.” Actually, Xiao Tian only wanted to greet her and sit at another table, but he changed his mind after hearing her words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you often come to this shop?” Xi Xingyi asked curiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is my third time coming to this shop.” Xiao Tian gave an honest answer. “What about you, lady Xi? Do you often come to this shop?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is my first time coming to this shop.” Xi Xingyi responded, “I happened to have some business around here, so I came to this shop.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I see.” Xiao Tian nodded his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not long after that, Leng Nichang arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was shocked when she saw Xiao Tian sitting in front of Xi Xingyi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Mr. Xiao? Did they meet by chance?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was the question that appeared in her mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Tian and Xi Xingyi turned their heads toward Leng Nichang when they caught sight of her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Here.” Xi Xingyi smiled as she waved her right hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leng Nichang sat next to Xiao Tian before finally saying, “I did not expect to meet you in this place, Mr. Xiao.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like usual, Xiao Tian showed his charming smile, “I happened to meet big sister Xi Lingxian.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Big sister Xi Lingxian?” Leng Nichang was shocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Did madam Xi hide her identity to him? But what is this big sister thing?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, she knew that Xi Xingyi was a beauty, but calling her big sister was too much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xi Xingyi was already forty-five years old while Xiao Tian was still twenty-one, so calling her big sister was quite weird.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leng Nichang shifted her gaze from Xiao Tian to Xi Xingyi when Xi Xingyi kicked her right leg.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Hmm?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though Xi Xingyi did not say anything, but Leng Nichang knew what she had in mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xi Xingyi wanted her not to reveal her real identity to Xiao Tian!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She decided not to reveal the truth because Xi Xingyi was her boss and Xi Ran’s mother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I see.” Leng Nichang nodded her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xi Xingyi smiled in satisfaction when Leng Nichang did not reveal the truth. There was one reason why she wanted to keep hiding her real identity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She loved it when people saw her as a woman in her twenties!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was already forty-five years old, so her heart was filled with happiness when Xiao Tian thought she was Xi Ran’s elder sister.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was the main reason why she wanted to keep hiding the truth. After all, it had been a long time since someone called her big sister.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And what made her happiest was that the one who called her big sister was an attractive young man like Xiao Tian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, she wanted to enjoy that happy feeling first. The trio began to talk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Xiao Tian didn’t stay long because Liang Jun asked him to sign important documents for his new company.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Xiao Tian left, Leng Nichang looked at Xi Xingyi and inquired, “Madam, are you not afraid of the consequences? After all, it’s impossible to hide the truth forever.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s fine. I will reveal the truth, but not now. It has been a long time since the last time someone called me big sister. I want to enjoy it first.” Xi Xingyi knew that she would not be able to hide everything forever, so she would reveal the truth later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She did not do anything bad to Xiao Tian, so she was sure that Xiao Tian would not be angry at her later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leng Nichang did not say anything because she could not force Xi Xingyi to reveal the truth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘I hope she won’t regret her actions later.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hoped Xi Xingyi would not regret her decision because they already had many problems.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Xiao Tian signed all the necessary documents, he went straight to the Xing family restaurant because Xing Hanxian invited him to lunch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At first, he thought he would have lunch with Xing Hanxian alone, but he was wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was utterly wrong because Xing Ranqing and Xing Juzong came with Xing Hanxian. Not only that but there was also Zhao Sheng in the Xing family restaurant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Where have you been, bro? I haven’t seen you lately.” Xing Ranqing spoke abruptly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I went to Japan with my family and women for several days.” Xiao Tian gave an honest answer. “I always work hard, so I want to reward myself.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Work hard my ass!” Zhao Sheng stated. “I remember that you always spent time with us or your women.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Tian’s company was already able to run on its own, so Zhao Sheng did not believe it when Xiao Tian said he had been working really hard lately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Xiao, brother Zhao, do you want to see the progress of our humanitarian event?” Xing Juzong inquired.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Tian and Zhao Sheng exchanged a glance with each other before finally nodding their heads. “Yes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They went straight to the orphanage to meet the orphans. Even though Xiao Tian was not a saint, but his heart still melted when he saw their happy faces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The orphans were thrilled and expressed their gratitude to Xiao Tian and the others. Not only would they have new orphanages, but they would also have a school.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Xing family had helped them in achieving two of their dreams. That was why they were pleased when they met Xing Juzong and the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xing Juzong and the others also checked the progress of the orphanages. They wanted to make sure everything went according to the plan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xing Juzong and the others nodded their heads after checking everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xing Ranqing looked at his brother and inquired, “Brother, how about we buy snacks and cake and eat with the orphans?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Good idea!” Xing Hanxian nodded his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xing Juzong looked at Xiao Tian and Zhao Sheng. “What do you think, brother Xiao, brother Zhao?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Un. Good idea.” Xiao Tian and Zhao Sheng also agreed with Xing Ranqing’s idea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—-\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xi Ran finally decided to meet her mother after not seeing her for several months.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, she was still unwilling to forgive her mother because her mother had done some cruel things to her.\u003C\u002Fp>",1217,"2026-06-06T16:27:56.691Z",1,"novelbin.me","4d4d901cbd5dadb3283859003854e74d4a658a9cba9d8b836aeb9872f0986eab","illicit-relationship-chapter-1355","illicit-relationship-chapter-1353",1793,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fillicit-relationship-cover.jpg"]
