Tang Yi nodded gently. Then, looking at Yan Xi, Tang Yi said, "Xi Xi, thank you."
"What are you thanking me for? I told you, I bought this for myself, but I couldn't fit into it, so I gave it to you. It wasn't specifically for you," Yan Xi said.
Although Yan Xi said this, Tang Yi knew deep down that Yan Xi was deliberately saying this to spare her feelings.
With Yan Xi's abilities and strength, she didn't need to curry favor with Tang Yi like this.
Yan Xi's actions also considered Tang Yi's dignity.
This made Tang Yi feel even more moved.
Tang Yi knew that Yan Xi was deliberately saying this so that she wouldn't feel embarrassed.
These clothes were all bought according to Tang Yi's usual preferences, and the tags hadn't even been removed.
Yan Xi seemed to have thought of something. She patted her forehead and said, "Look at my memory. You're officially starting work tomorrow, and I haven't bought you any formal attire yet. You parked at the mall in front, so we need to shop for a while longer."
However, after Yan Xi finished speaking, no one responded to her.
Tang Yi also had a vague premonition of something bad.
Yan Xi sensed that something was wrong. Although Yan Xi and Fu Yan Ting hadn't remarried, the people around Fu Yan Ting had never treated Yan Xi this way.
These people were ignoring Yan Xi's words.
This made Yan Xi very unhappy.
Yan Xi frowned and said coldly, "Are you all mute? I'm talking to you."
Tang Yi also sensed that something was wrong, but Tang Yi hadn't thought much about it. These people shouldn't have been sent by Fu Yan Ting; they were likely sent by Mr. Mo.
So, Tang Yi appeased Yan Xi, saying, "Don't get angry yet. These people might have been sent by Mr. Mo."
Upon mentioning Mr. Mo, Yan Xi thought of the negative rumors about Tang Yi online. Yan Xi earnestly advised, "Yi Yi, it's not that I want to say this, but that Mr. Mo doesn't seem like a good person. Don't be deceived by his appearance. He's so old and knows everything; he can't possibly be in a sweet romance with a recent college graduate like you."
"I know."
Tang Yi knew Yan Xi had misunderstood.
When Yan Xi heard Tang Yi say "I know" so calmly, she became even more angry.
If Tang Yi already knew, why was she still with Mr. Mo?
Was it out of love?
But Yan Xi could tell that Tang Yi had a good impression of Zheng Ze Min.
Yan Xi took a deep breath and said softly, "You know, and you're still with him. Aren't you afraid he'll cheat your feelings? Someone like him must already have a wife and children."
"Xi Xi, I know you're doing this for my own good, but please calm down and listen to my explanation. Actually, that Mr. Mo, he's my biological father."
"What did you say?"
Yan Xi was completely taken aback by Tang Yi's words.
What did Tang Yi say?
The man rumored to have an inappropriate relationship with Tang Yi online was actually Tang Yi's biological father?
Tang Yi saw Yan Xi's confusion and smiled, explaining, "Yes, my mother never married. She gave birth to me after breaking up with Mr. Mo. For many years, she raised me alone. A while ago, I applied for a teaching position at a special elementary school, and that's where I met Mr. Mo. He saw that I looked very much like my mother, and at his request, I took him to my mother's grave. He learned that my mother had passed away, and he told me about his relationship with me."
"Is that reliable? Why are there so many coincidences? Don't let his sweet talk deceive you. What if it's not true, and he's deliberately acting affectionate to deceive your feelings?"
Even though Tang Yi said this, Yan Xi was still very worried.
Yan Xi believed that such coincidences didn't exist in the world.
"It's true. He even showed me the results of the paternity test. How could it be fake?"
If she could, Tang Yi wished it were fake. At least then, Tang Yi wouldn't be in so much pain and wouldn't have to face Mr. Mo like this.
Yan Xi was utterly speechless after learning the truth.
So, Zheng Ze Min's anger and blame towards Tang Yi were just his own overthinking.
Yan Xi couldn't help but feel sympathetic towards Zheng Ze Min.
That Mr. Mo seemed like a good person, but Yan Xi knew he was quite unapproachable.
It seemed that if Zheng Ze Min wanted to be with Tang Yi in the future, he would have a difficult time.
The two girls chatted animatedly for a long time and suddenly realized that the car was driving further and further into a secluded area.
Both Yan Xi and Tang Yi became vigilant.
In unison, they shouted, "Stop."
However, the driver seemed not to hear them and continued to drive forward.
The man in the passenger seat turned around, looked at Tang Yi, grinned, and then explained, "Ladies, there's no need to struggle. Someone paid for your lives."
Upon hearing this, Yan Xi and Tang Yi became instantly alert.
"Thank you for your sisterly chat just now. Otherwise, with your similar appearances, it would have been difficult for me to tell who I was supposed to kill."
"We have money. Whatever the other party paid you, I'll give you double, just let us go."
"The other party didn't just pay me money."
After the man spoke, his eyes, devoid of any pretense, scanned Yan Xi and Tang Yi.
Although not explicitly stated, everyone understood the implication.
"I advise you to give up on that idea. If you dare to do anything to us, my husband will not let you go." At this moment, Yan Xi could only tightly grip Tang Yi's hand, feigning composure.
At the time, when they were called into the car, Yan Xi and Tang Yi had been careless and got in without proper verification. If they hadn't gotten in, none of this would have happened.
Thinking of this, Tang Yi and Yan Xi were filled with regret.
"Husband, oh, I'm so scared."
The man in the passenger seat, referred to as Brother Wang, deliberately put on a frightened expression, stared at Yan Xi for a long time, and then said, "That little lady didn't tell me you were so hot."
Yan Xi ignored Brother Wang's vulgar remarks.
Yan Xi knew that with people like him, the more you tried to bring them down, the more they would lash out.
If she retorted, he would definitely say even more indecent things.
Therefore, Yan Xi wisely chose to ignore him, letting him perform his solo act.
Tang Yi looked at Brother Wang in the passenger seat, knowing that the other party was after her. Death was acceptable, but Tang Yi wanted to die with clarity.
So, Tang Yi asked, "Who sent you to kill me?"
