Chapter 527: Tang Ling
Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee
The next morning, Tang Xi had left the Empire Garden before Tang Ya and Xiao Hongyi woke up. Before she left, she asked the servants to take good care of the two of them, and told the driver to send them to the hospital after they had breakfast.
As soon as she got into the car, she asked Little Six about Lu Li. “How is Lu Li now? Is he still in a coma?”
Little Six took a look at her and nodded. “His situation is not good. He is still in a coma and in fever. Luo Feng has done the operations, but it’s still unknown whether he can recover or not.”
Little Six thought Lu Li was really unlucky this time. The Mexican gangsters set a trap and lured Mr. Seven to No. 3 Base in order to kill him, because his death would be a big blow to Long Xiao.
If Young Master hadn’t recognized that the man in the test tube was actually Mr. Seven, then he would have killed Mr. Seven with his own hands. This would be devastating to Young Master as well as a fatal blow to Long Xiao Group.
Thinking of this, Little Six had an impulse to kill those people right away.
Seeing Little Six so indignant, Tang Xi could imagine how much Qiao Liang was suffering. If she called him now, it would only make him feel worse, so she kept telling herself not to call Qiao Liang.
“Let’s go to the Empire Group first.” Tang Xi said.
Little Six said, “Okay.” Tang Xi began to read the documents in her hands. Little Six took a look at her through the rear-view mirror and quietly drove the car without disturbing Tang Xi.

Perhaps people with stories would understand others better and understand others more attentively.
Miss Tang chose to understand Young Master and not to disturb him at such a hard time, because she knew what Young Master truly needed.
They reached the Empire Building only to find the gate was crowded with journalists. Tang Xi got out of the car and Assistant Wang who was already waiting there rushed up to her. “President, Tang Jieren and his brothers plan to take advantage of our new project’s failure to bring you down. Now they have prepared to hold a press conference, denounce you in the media and drive you out of the company to get rid of you once and for all. And… Mr. Tang Ling wants to see you.”
Get rid of her once and for all? She’d like to see what they are capable of!
Tang Xi took a look at Assistant Wang and raised her eyebrows. “Tang Ling?”
Assistant Wang nodded. “Mr. Tang Ling wants to see you before the press conference.”
Tang Xi nodded and wondered why Tang Ling wanted to see her. She looked at Assistant Wang and frowned. “Where is Tang Ling?”
Assistant Wang, “He is in your office.”
Tang Xi nodded and walked ahead as escorted by Little Six and Assistant Wang. Suddenly, a journalist rushed up and stuck his microphone to her face. Tang Xi stopped her steps and frowned. That journalist didn’t seem to realize how rude he was and hurriedly asked, “President Tang, please answer my question! The Empire Group has spent hundreds of millions yuan for this project, but now this project is ruined by you. What do you think of this?”
Tang Xi frowned and her eyes had a cold gleam. She squinted at that journalist and coldly said, “I’m thinking about how rude you are! Your existence is a disgrace to the news agency you work for!”

That journalist still tried to speak, and Little Six stared at him sternly. Being intimidated, that journalist got out of the way awkwardly. Tang Xi moved through the crowd and entered the company.
As soon as Tang Xi entered the elevator, Little Six said to her with a smile, “Miss, Young Master assigned me another task. I can’t go up now. See you later.”
Tang Xi raised her eyebrows and looked at Little Six. “Mr. Lu?”
She still remembered Mr. Little Six was a large shareholder of the Empire Group. With Little Six here, even if the other directors didn’t take sides with her, she could still drive those people out of the company. However, those people knew how to manipulate the media. In order not to be constrained by media, she thought she’d better use another way to leave them no chance to make any noise in media again!
Little Six scratched his head. “Miss Tang, I just can’t keep anything from you.”
Tang Xi shrugged. “Yeah, you know I’m Tang Xi.”
Then she took Assistant Wang into the elevator. The latter handed her a document. “This is their news release. One of my journalist friends gave this to me. They have prepared many tough questions for you. My friend is merely a journalist, so he could do nothing but give their news release to us in advance.”
Tang Xi took the news release and smiled. “Thank him for me.”
Assistant Wang shrugged.
Tang Xi and Assistant Wang went to her office and Tang Ling was already waiting for her. As Tang Xi walked in, Tang Ling who was standing in front of the French windows of the room looked back at her. Tang Xi raised her eyebrows and looked at Tang Ling. “What can I do for you?”
Tang Ling took a look at Assistant Wang who followed Tang Xi in, and the Assistant Wang immediately left and closed the door for them. Tang Xi looked back at the closed door and then turned her eyes to Tang Ling, asking, “Tell me why you want to see me.”
Tang Ling gazed at Tang Xi for quite a while before he looked away. Then he handed Tang Xi a pie of documents and a disc. “This is the result of my months-long investigation. There are text messages that Qin Xinying sent to Tang Jieren, telling him about Tang Xi’s whereabouts, their call records, Tang Jieren’s purchasing record of jet fuel, the evidence that they bribed the aircraft maintenance people into damaging the aircraft, and Satellite footage of the crash.”
Tang Xi looked at Tang Ling. He didn’t say ‘you’ but ‘Tang Xi’ when he mentioned Tang Xi just now…
Tang Ling seemed to know what she was thinking. She frowned and said seriously, “I wonder why you…”
“Tang Ling, do you remember when I was four years old, the two of us were playing by the lake. I wanted to fish, but you refused to give me the fishing rod. I was so angry that I kicked you into the fish pond?” Tang Xi interrupted Tang Ling and said with a smile. Then she looked at Tang Ling who looked surprised and she continued, “I remember that so clearly because my grandpa was never angry at me, but at that time he made me get on my knees for a whole hour as punishment.”
