Chapter 237: Came to Beg Him
Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee
Jayce was excited when he heard Qiao Liang’s answer. He put his face in front of the camera and asked with wide eyes, “Did you sign some unequal treaty with the leader of your country? Did you trick somebody again?”
Qiao Liang looked up at Jayce with a frown. Just then there was a loud noise outside. “You mustn’t go in, Sir. Our president isn’t in the office.”
“Go away!” A loud voice rang. “I know that brat is here!”
There was a scream outside, followed by the sound of things being broken. Jayce and Wilson obviously heard the noise too. From their past experience, they could guess what was happening. They took a look at Qiao Liang and cut off the video call.
After An Hao was knocked to the ground, the “secretaries” of the President’s Office immediately moved at a fast speed. One of them helped An Hao stand up and the rest stood in a row in front of the office and stared expressionlessly at the two men in suits. Among the two men, the middle-aged man was handsome but had a hostile look; the young man simply looked angry. They had very similar features, like two peas in a pod. The middle-aged man looked at the men standing in front of him and shouted angrily, “Get out of my way!”
The “Secretaries” didn’t move and the young man yelled angrily, “Good dogs don’t get underfoot. Get out of our way! It’s between Qiao Liang and us. We will let you off if you leave right now!”
The secretaries gave him a disdainful look, but still stood in a motionless formation, like Buddha statues. They had no choice but to use force. They battered against the secretaries with all their strength only to be bounced back and knocked to the ground. The young man gave the secretaries a dark look. “Are you gonna get out of the way or not?!”

He then hurriedly turned to help the middle-aged man up. “Dad, are you alright?”
The middle-aged man glared at him and said angrily, “Still alive!” He shook off his hand, stood up and yelled angrily towards the office, “Qiao Liang, I know you’re inside. You dared to do these things to me, but dare not come out and see me? Aren’t you afraid of being struck by lightning for being so unfilial to your father…”
Before he finished, the door of the office was flung open. Qiao Liang who was tall and handsome appeared behind the “guards”. As soon as he appeared, the “guards” immediately parted on both sides to make way for him. Standing at the door, Qiao Liang glanced at the two who looked a total mess and snorted. “Now the police is getting more and more unreliable. I remember you were brought to the police office for investigation. How can you show up in my company so soon?”
When Lu Guangxiong saw Qiao Liang speak to them condescendingly, his eyes had a gleam of resentment and he said harshly, “It’s all because of you! Do you think I don’t know you set me up?”
Lu Hongkun couldn’t help but to step back and shrink his neck when he saw Qiao Liang.
Qiao Liang coldly glanced at Lu Guangxiong. Without looking at Lu Hongkun, he sneered and looked sarcastically at Lu Guangxiong. “It’s because you ran your company improperly and I have nothing to do with it. If you get hit by a car and die, can you say it’s because of me?”
“You!” Qiao Liang turned to walk into his office and said coldly, “Since you came to beg for my mercy, don’t put on stupid airs. You make me sick!”

“Qiao Liang, I’m your father!” Lu Guangxiong snapped, “You’ll be punished by God for treating your father like this!”
“Haha…” Qiao Liang stood in the office and laughed at Lu Guangxiong. Suddenly he turned to Lu Guangxiong and a hateful look flashed across his face. He said darkly, “Lu Guangxiong, don’t you know that the greatest punishment to me is being your son?!”
“Qiao Liang!” Lu Guangxiong was so angry that he couldn’t even finish his words. Hearing Qiao Liang’s words, the “guards” felt their young master was incredible! In their eyes, their young master was always quiet, but at the critical moment, you would end up wanting to cut off his tongue because of how sharp it was!
“Okay, forget it. Tell me why did you destroy Hongkun Group?” Lu Guangxiong said sternly, “You know how hard I’ve been working these past years to run Hongkun Group. If Hongkun Group collapses, I’ll lose everything!”
Qiao Liang sneered. “What does that have to do with me?”
With that, he sat down on the black leather sofa and glanced at the “guards”. They immediately got out of the way and Lu Guangxiong and Lu Hongkun could finally enter the office. Lu Hongkun had a gleam of envy in his eyes when he saw the spacious office, but he quickly lowered his head and didn’t look around anymore. Lu Guangxiong asked in a harsh tone, “It has nothing to do with you? Then why did you fire Merry and the other secretaries?”
“I’m free to fire my employees.” Qiao Liang said flatly and sneered at Lu Guangxiong. “Or are these people your spies? So that’s why you care whether they were fired by me or not?”
Upon hearing his words, Lu Guangxiong looked a bit uneasy. He clenched his fists and coughed, saying, “Of course they are not my spies! I just care about the company. Although I’m no longer a member of the company, I used to be its president. Is it wrong for me to care about the Qiao’s?”
Qiao Liang sneered. “Yes, it’s wrong, Lu Guangxiong. Out with it! Don’t beat around the bush! I don’t have time to listen to your bullsh*t.” He paused and looked at Lu Guangxiong whose face turned dark, and said. “You must be busy dealing with the procuratorial organisation who is investigating your tax evasion, right?”
Lu Guangxiong flew into a rage when he heard this. “I know you’re behind this! Give me two billion Yuan to straighten up the accounts. Then…”
“You wish.” Lu Guangxiong was interrupted by Qiao Liang. Under his surprised stare, Qiao Liang gave a cold smile and said, “Lu Guangxiong, listen, you’ll never ever get a penny from me no matter if it’s in your present life or your afterlife. Two billion Yuan?bIn your dreams! Just wait patiently so you can rot in jail!”
“Qiao Liang, you…” Lu Guangxiong placed his hand on his chest and looked as if he was going to fall down. Lu Hongkun hurriedly supported Lu Guangxiong, looked at Qiao Liang with his red eyes and sobbed. “Brother, why are you so cruel to us? Are you really not going to help us?!”

Toradora!
Toradora!’s story begins with the male protagonist Ryuji Takasu who is frustrated at trying to look his best as he enters his second year of high school. Despite his gentle personality, his eyes make him look like an intimidating delinquent so he is utterly hopeless about his chances of getting a girlfriend anytime soon, and does not have many close friends either. After being greeted by his hungover mother in the morning, Ryuji goes to school and is happy to find that he gets to be in the same class as his best friend Yusaku Kitamura and crush Minori Kushieda. However, it is then that he unexpectedly knocks into “the school’s most dangerous animal of the highest risk level” — Taiga Aisaka — who just happens to also be in his class, and is a good friend of Minori. Taiga has a negative attitude towards others and will not hesitate to snap at people. After meeting Ryuji, she takes an instant dislike of him. Taiga comes from a rich family, though she moved out to live on her own due to family issues, and by coincidence is now living in an apartment next door to Ryuji. After Ryuji discovers that Taiga has a crush on Yusaku, and Taiga finds out about Ryuji’s affections towards Minori, Ryuji suggests that they cooperate so they can win the object of their affections. Ryuji says he will do anything to get closer to Minori, which Taiga exploits, making Ryuji her personal servant, and getting him to do household chores like cooking and cleaning for her. Taiga spends a lot of her time over at his house, so much so that she could almost be considered a member of his family. Since Ryuji spends a lot of time with Taiga, he is opened up to her world and to a side of her that most people do not see. The two also attempt to help each other in order to improve how people view them. Unknown to them, however, people they know from school start to become curious about their strange relationship together and rumors begin to spread about them.
