Chapter 482: Reverse the Situation
Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee
Tang Zhenhua didn’t expect that his butler was so worried about his granddaughter, especially as it was over such a strange matter… the corner of his mouth twitched. He didn’t know how to explain to his butler, so he simply ignored his butler’s concerns and walked away.
Being ignored by his master, Butler Tang looked at his back worriedly but still hastened to catch up with him after a pause.
No matter how many boyfriends Miss had had, it would be fine as long as she didn’t cheat on her boyfriend. Even if she did, it would be fine as long as she didn’t get caught. And even if she got caught, it would be fine as long as the media didn’t know about it…
Okay, to be honest, butler Tang was quite unprincipled in this matter. No matter what happened, he would definitely take sides with Miss.
Tang Xi, completely unaware of how much Butler Tang was worried about her, went to the headquarters of the Empire Group. Sure enough, the headquarters had been crowded by many journalists. Whenever there was any negative news about these famous families, the journalists would guard all night in these companies until they got first-hand information.
Tang Xi looked at Qiao Liang and the latter held her hand to encourage her. The capital was different from City A, and the Empire Group was also different from the Qiao’s International Group. It was almost impossible for Tang Xi to escape the journalists’ cameras. Besides, the Empire Entertainment, which is owned by the Empire Group, had been attracting a lot of attention. Tang Xi, the President of the Empire Entertainment, was always in the media’s attention. When it was exposed that Qin Xinying usurped Tang Xi’s design drawings, the latter was in France, so the media couldn’t reach her, but now she had finally come back to China…

The media had been longing to interview her on this matter. Now they finally had an excuse to come to the Empire Group to interview her.
Tang Xi smiled and her eyes had a sly gleam. She looked at Qiao Liang. “I wonder why a smart person like Grandpa Qin would do such a stupid thing. If I were him, I would have put himself instead of me in the spotlight. All he has done will only help me prove my ability.
Feeling the subtle regret in her tone, Qiao Liang raised his eyebrows, looked at Tang Xi and asked, “So?”
Tang Xi turned up the corners of her mouth. “The enemy is so stupid that I don’t have any sense of achievement.” She said and opened the car door to go out.
Qiao Liang took a helpless look at Tang Xi and could only open his door hurriedly to go out and protect her. However, as soon as he got out of the car, Tang Xi had already been surrounded by the journalists. Fortunately, the security guards of the Empire Group were already waiting there. They surrounded Tang Xi in the middle to protect her. Qiao Liang couldn’t squeeze into the crowd, but he was relieved to see that Tang Xi was being protected by the security guards.
Tang Xi was wearing a blue Givenchy suit, which made her look very capable and energetic. Most importantly, with a gentle smile on her lips, she looked very confident.
“Miss Tang, can you comment on the news about your grandfather this morning?”
“Miss Tang, why are you concealing your grandfather’s illness?”
“Miss Tang, may I ask if your grandfather has recovered?”
“Miss Tang…”
Tang Xi listened to the journalists’ questions and kept walking. When she walked up to the gate of the Empire Group, she turned to look at the journalists with a smile on her face. “Firstly, wasn’t it because my grandfather was ill that I became CEO of the Empire Group five years ago? Secondly, I didn’t conceal the fact that my grandfather was ill. You can check the newspapers five years ago that all reported that I decided to take the post of CEO of the Empire Group because my grandfather was ill. Besides, my grandfather has completely recovered after five years of treatment. The reason why he no longer manages the company is that I can manage everything by myself now, and I don’t want him to be so tired. After all, I only have one grandfather… And…” Tang Xi looked at the journalists and there was a cold smile on her face, “As far as I know, the one who exposed this news is the heiress to the Qin’s Group, Qin Xinying. Can you tell me whether this message I received is correct?”

The journalists didn’t expect Tang Xi to ask such a question and all eyes turned to a journalist who was from the news agency that announced the news this morning. That journalist couldn’t help nodding. Seeing that reporter nod, Tang Xi looked obviously disappointed.
She smiled sadly. “I thought since she is my friend, I should forgive her, even though she did something wrong…”
Hearing Tang Xi’s words, the journalists felt a little sympathetic with Tang Xi. One of the reporters suddenly thought of something and asked, “Miss Tang, do you mean that Qin Xinying exposed this news because she was retaliating against you?”
Tang Xi gave that reporter a thumbs-up in her heart when she heard his question, but she appeared to be very sad. She pursed her lips and shook her head. “I don’t know why she wanted revenge on me. Was it because I didn’t intercede with the police of Paris? But she had committed a crime. Shouldn’t she stay in the police station for a few days and reflect on her mistake? And I had asked the police to release her before I came back to China… I never expected that instead of apologizing to me, she would instead do something like this to cut off our friendship.”
Tang Xi paused and then said, “She is the only friend I have.”
Hearing her words, the crowd was in an uproar. The reporters were all discussing how shameless Qin Xinying was… And many of them even comforted Tang Xi…
Tang Xi smiled, looked at the reporters and said, “Thank you. I’ll be alright. I’m Tang Xi of the Empire Group. As long as I want, there must be a lot of people who want to make friends with me.”
She implied that it was not that Qin Xinying chose her but she chose Qin Xinying… And the only friend she chose betrayed her.
As soon as the news about Tang Xi was reported, the stock price of the Empire Group that had already dropped by more than 10 points began to soar…
The market held an optimistic view of the Empire Group not because of Tang Zhenhua, but because of its ability. They didn’t care if the chairman of the Empire Group was sick, as long as the Empire Group could still bring benefits to them…
Five years ago, Tang Xi, who was 23, could run the empire well. Five years later, the 28-year-old Tang Xi, who had gone through numerous hardships and setbacks in the business circle, could surely bring the Empire Group to a higher level.
