"How could it be?" Yu Jian was stunned, involuntarily taking a breath of cold air and frowning deeply.
Tang Jingling thought about it for a long time. The connection between Tang Yuan and the Rooster Country can be traced back to his experience at Le Cordon Bleu and their parents.
The Tang family immigrated to Malay in the early years. The siblings' grandfather Tang Bei fell in love at first sight with their grandmother who was traveling to Malay at that time. They fell in love and got married. Unexpectedly, Grandma Tang was the heir of the Provo family, a famous aristocrat in the northern region of Rooster Country.
.For the sake of love, Tang Bei resolutely closed down the factory in Malay and followed his lover to the Rooster Country.
Tang Bei and his wife gave birth to four sons and two daughters. Tang Yuan's father ranked third, but he was the child most like his father. He only inherited his mother's blue eyes and high nose, but the rest was exactly the same as his father.
Tang Yuan's mother, an authentic Chinese, met his father when he was studying abroad and was attracted by this elegant and mature man. The two quickly confirmed their relationship.
While this love affair was supported on the surface, it encountered repeated setbacks behind the scenes. Grandma Tang was interested in another aristocratic girl in the family, and she sabotaged their union overtly and covertly.
In a rage, Tang Yuan's mother took Tang Jingling, who was still in her belly, to a foreign country. Tang Yuan's father followed closely and left the Rooster Country with his wife who was not yet married at the time.
From the time Tang Jingling could remember, she felt that family relations were extremely delicate. Every time her father took her and her brother back to the Rooster Country, her mother would never follow her and would talk harshly to them.
It wasn't until her parents passed away that she gradually understood the truth of the matter. At the funeral, her grandfather Tang Bei was heartbroken, but her grandmother and her brothers and sisters, who even looked completely Westernized, looked on with cold eyes.
No matter how stupid Tang Jingling was, she still knew what must have happened.
After the funeral, Tang Bei and Tang Yuan talked alone. I don't know what they said. I just remember that when Tang Yuan looked at the kind-faced grandma, his eyes were cold and showed a little bit of hatred.
"People always report good news but not bad news, but A Yuan doesn't know how to report good news or bad news. Even if he wants to report safety, he will only say that when he thinks about it. He sends me messages every now and then.
, this is not his style." Tang Jingling came back to her senses and tapped the table gently.
When something goes wrong, you become a monster.
"I'm going to go to the Rooster Country." Tang Jingling looked at Yu Jian. The little girl was wearing a dark cotton dress, her hair was tied loosely behind her head, revealing her smooth forehead and willow-shaped eyebrows.
This was the first time that Tang Jingling looked at her so seriously. She felt that her facial features alone were ordinary, but when combined on Yu Jian's face, they were surprisingly harmonious. Even the little girl's slightly frowning eyebrows made her
I feel like a female official in a painting of ladies, gentle and arrogant.
Such a little girl makes her happy even just looking at her. What on earth is her silly brother thinking? Why doesn't he try hard to abduct her home?
Tang Jingling held her hand on her lap and asked, "Ajian, are you willing to go with me?"
Yu Jian withdrew her hand and shook her head subconsciously.
"I have to go to class, and the restaurant is very busy." The most important thing is, in what capacity does she go? Her relationship with Tang Yuan has been close and distant, maybe it is just her daughter-in-law who is interested, and Xiaolang is ruthless?
…
Tang Jingling was right.
Something did happen to Tang Yuan. To be more precise, he was placed under semi-house arrest in the name of family affection.
The Provo family has been a great noble in the northern part of the Rooster Country since the fourteenth century, leading the way. From the earliest wine estates to later chain hotels and restaurant chains, there are many large and small interests tied up in this chain.
family.
Since Tang Yuan's father's generation, marriage has been a bargaining chip for profit. Tang Yuan's uncles, aunts and uncles either married into other noble families or married the daughters of "indigenous people". This has been passed down from generation to generation, saying that it is to maintain
A good bloodline is nothing but a grasshopper on a string.
Tang Yuan spread his legs and leaned on the sofa, looking at the middle-aged man holding a franc teacup elegantly in front of him, with a contemptuous smile that could not be concealed on his lips.
"Don't look at me like that, Evan." Dressed in casual family attire, the middle-aged man tasted the aroma of French black tea and smiled slightly, "If my mother didn't insist on seeing you, I don't think I would want to have anything to do with you in this life.
Intersection.”
Tang Yuan's expression did not change and he responded with the same words: "Who isn't? Uncle Anthony, uncle."
"However, you have brought me here for several days. Where is my dear grandma? Why are you still cowering behind? Are you used to being the empress dowager who listens to politics behind the curtain?" Tang Yuan spoke fluently.
The rooster speaks sharp words.
Sure enough, Anthony's face darkened and he looked at him sternly: "Your grandma is still the head of the Provo family. Pay attention to the tone of your words."
Tang Yuan didn't care at all about his threats. To him, such words were just a trick of pretending to be powerful. He sat up slightly, leaned to the side where Anthony was sitting, and gently raised his chin: "So
It’s been so many years and it’s still not your turn to make the decision?”
As soon as these words came out, Anthony's face turned even darker. He squeezed the handle of the teacup in his hand tighter and tighter. Tang Yuan quickly shouted: "Oh, please be gentle! If you crush it, you can't buy it. This is an antique, right?"
Having said that, his dark eyes were full of teasing.
"You!" Anthony was speechless at his retort. It took him a long time to calm down. He put the teacup gently into the coaster and began to smile gracefully again, "Evan, your grandma said that you can live here with peace of mind.
When she arrives, she will naturally come to see you. Before that, your scope of activities cannot go beyond this manor!"
This is naked coercion.
Tang Yuan looked at him with a sullen face, and in a daze, an idea suddenly flashed. The hotel chain that Han Yubai had been in contact with in China seemed to be one of the subsidiaries of the Provo family. Before he died, Qiao Sen happily told
He has a company that invites him to cooperate, so does this company also belong to the Provo family?
Having found clues, there will definitely be major clues, but now he is locked up in the old house, with people watching his comings and goings, and his mobile phone is monitored at all times. He can only send messages to Tang Jinling under the pretext of reporting that he is safe.
I hope his sister will notice something strange.
Tang Jingling on the other side had expected that Yu Jian would reject her. Although she was a little regretful, she did not insist. She just touched her head with a sigh: "We, Jian, don't know whose brat we will take advantage of in the future."
Yu Jian's face turned red and she felt a little shy, but she suddenly remembered something and reminded Tang Jingling: "Sister Jingling, I think you can discuss this matter with Li Hanzhi."
Tang Yuan once said that he has three good friends. They are omnipotent, not only in heaven and on earth, but at critical moments, it is no problem for one to stand up to three.
She didn't know the kind of danger Tang Yuan was in, but it was always right to ask them for help.
