Seeing Ji Yang stand up, Tang Miao breathed a sigh of relief.
She didn't dare to hang up Xie Lingxi's phone casually, because Xie Lingxi was very arrogant. When she was in the UK, she once called her, but because of the inconvenience, Tang Miao pressed the reject button. In the end, Xie Lingxi directly called her.
After cutting off her mother's medical expenses for a week, Tang Miao realized what she had done wrong only when the hospital's demand note arrived at her uncle's side.
After that time, she never dared to hang up Xie Lingxi's phone casually again.
In her words - even if it is inconvenient to answer the phone, you can find a convenient place for me to come out. If someone is there, you can go far away to answer the phone. I call you and you still dare to hang up on me. I am very embarrassed.
I don't like the feeling of being hung up on.
Tang Miao is really a little afraid of Xie Lingxi. In fact, it is not strange to feel this way. People who rely on others will be cautious. What's more, Xie Lingxi is her Tang Miao's parents. Whether her grandma can lie well in the hospital is a matter of course.
With Xie Lingxi's little medical expenses, how could she dare to offend her casually?
Ji Yang walked away, and then Tang Miao picked up the phone.
"…Miss Xie."
I don't know what Xie Lingxi said on the other end of the phone. Tang Miao's expression suddenly changed. She subconsciously reached out and pressed her lips, and finally said cautiously: "...Miss Xie, I...have no chance to go now."
(Layer, and... I'm afraid they have already suspected me... No, Miss Xie, the assistant next to Mr. Gu came to see me today, and now he is with me... No, I don't know anything
He didn't say anything, but he went to the bathroom when he heard my call. I really don't dare to do it now, I'm afraid they will find something."
"…………"
"...I, I understand."
Tang Miao hung up the phone with a pale face, her eyebrows twisted, and the expression on her face was full of distress.
Before Xie Lingxi hung up the phone, she only said one sentence - "Tang Miao, please understand that everything you have now is given to you by me. Your grandma's situation seems to have improved, right? Didn't she say she wanted to go back?
Home? I can help you get that courtyard house that your grandma has been thinking about. It won’t be a problem for her to live in it for the rest of her life. But it depends on whether you are sensible or not. If Ji Yang comes to find you, you can take care of it yourself. If you dare
If you leak even a little bit, you will definitely be the one who loses more than you gain."
"...Also, I'll give you 3 days to bring the recorder I asked you to put over there with Shen Zijin, and give it to me."
…………
Tang Miao subconsciously squeezed the mobile phone in her palm, as if there were two souls in her heart, engaged in a constant battle between heaven and man.
In fact, she didn't want to do anything to feel sorry for Zijin. She was already very guilty when she asked her to send documents. In the earliest days, in the UK, she also helped Xie Lingxi design her. Now looking at her
As if nothing had happened, she was somewhat okay with her conscience, but...she secretly placed the recorder in Zi Jin's office. She didn't know if anything was recorded, but no matter what, she did something wrong to Zi Jin.
Jin's thing...
what to do?
"...Ms. Tang."
Ji Yang came back without knowing when, stood in front of her and called her. Tang Miao was deep in thought. She was startled for a moment, her whole body trembled suddenly, and her cell phone dropped with a splat.
Ji Yang saw her startled look and calmly bent down to help her pick up the phone. Tang Miao quickly stood up, her voice a little unsteady. She was really not suitable for this kind of infernal affairs.
.
"...Ji, Assistant Ji, thank you...you, what do you want to see me for today?"
Ji Yang handed her the phone, looked at her twice, and finally sat down again, pushing the information in front of Tang Miao.
"Ms. Tang, I won't waste my time."
He coughed slightly, "I'm sorry, I asked someone to investigate Miss Tang. I know that Miss Tang, your family situation is not very good, but Miss Tang went to study in the UK 5 years ago, and your grandma seems to have been
You all live in the hospital, and the expenses are not small. One of your uncles helped you with all this, right?"
Tang Miao's face was already very reluctant. She never dared to look at Ji Yang, "...Ji, Assistant Ji, I...I don't quite understand, what do you mean by investigating me like this? I haven't done anything to regret the company...
"
"Miss Tang, Qiao Corporation has many shareholders. Each shareholder can also be said to be a part of Qiao Corporation. I know that you and Miss Shen have a good relationship. You are still classmates, right? Then you know that she is also a part of Qiao Corporation now.
Shareholders?"
"…………"
"Ms. Tang, I don't speak secretly. I am very direct in my words and actions. I think you should take a look at these. Someone has checked your uncle's account. All his income comes from a source. Of course, this source
What it is...I won't say much for the time being. In fact, if we continue the investigation, we can still find out the clues very quickly. I believe that Miss Tang, you must know the origin of this better than me. There are some things that I will tell you first.
Miss Tang, please remind me, I hope you, Miss Tang, can take care of yourself."
After Ji Yang finished speaking, he stood up and casually folded his collar. The man had a serious face and looked condescendingly at the frightened but suppressed woman in his position. Some emotion flashed through his eyes.
"Ms. Tang, if you think about it clearly, you can come to me. If you have any difficulties, you can also tell me. If I can help you, I will help you. But there are some things that cross the line, it is best not to do it.
, I can remind you just once, but it doesn’t mean there will be another chance. I’m going to leave first, and Miss Tang will think about it carefully.”
…………
Until Ji Yang walked all the way out, Tang Miao's body was still trembling. She was holding her mobile phone tightly with both hands, but her palms were sweating all the time, and her moist palms were almost ready to hold her hand.
The phone got soaked.
※※※※※
When she got off work, Zijin simply sorted out the documents at hand and put on her coat. Just as she was about to leave, the door to her office was pushed open from the outside. She raised her head and saw the expression on her face standing at the door.
The not-so-good-looking Qiao Jinglian.
Zijin paused, "...What are you doing here?"
It seems that he hasn't come to work all day. It's almost time to get off work now, but he actually remembered to come to the company.
"Looking for you."
Qiao Jinglian reached out and tugged at the collar of her shirt. Zijin saw that his face was a little haggard, as if he hadn't had a good rest all night. She didn't want to quarrel with her as soon as they met. Thinking of what she had said to Qiao Shiyun before,
It had no effect at all. If she wanted a divorce, she still wanted to start with Qiao Jinglian.
"Is something wrong?"
It's rare that she didn't say anything bad to him.
Qiao Jinglian took a step forward and reached out to grab Zijin's hand. Zijin noticed his move and subconsciously took a step back. He didn't say anything bad, but the resistance was still there, "...what's the matter?"
Please tell me directly about the matter and don’t do anything about it."
"If a husband wants to do something to his wife, does it count as touching?"
Qiao Jinglian gave a bitter smile. She was probably too tired. He had been struggling all night. After all, he was not a tough guy. Xie Lingxi's deception made him physically and mentally exhausted, but he was also more disappointed.
Maybe people are just so weird. When they feel lost or disappointed, they will want to find another feeling from another person to fill this negative emotion.
Qiao Jinglian had always felt that the woman around her was her favorite type, and this Shen Zijin who intervened in the middle was just for money and fame, and she was willing to marry into a wealthy family at a young age. Her husband
Even if he didn't want to touch her, she could still live a prosperous life. In addition, the old man took great care of her, which made him even more uncomfortable.
So in the past five years, Qiao Jinglian has really completely ignored the existence of Shen Zijin, his legal spouse.
But five years later, she suddenly came back, and as he slowly got in touch with her, he realized that he had been wrong.
It seems that she is not a money-grubbing woman. Ever since she was willing to give up the shares of Qiao's and the land in City B just to divorce him, he had a very strange feeling in his heart - as if he had recognized something.
After being suddenly overthrown, he wanted to find out.
And every lie from Xie Lingxi made him deepen this idea. He wanted to know whether he was wrong.
He wanted to get closer to her, and this thought had grown more and more in his heart these days.
"I don't want to quarrel with you today. I want to continue talking with you about the topics we haven't finished talking about before." Qiao Jinglian calmed down her thoughts, glanced at the watch on her wrist, and whispered: "I'm off work now, so I
You haven’t eaten either, so you want to have a meal with me, okay?”
"…………"
Zijin hesitated. In fact, she had promised Gu Yanshen to have dinner with him in the evening, but now...
She pursed her lips. The emotional balance had already been tilted towards Gu Yanshen. Even if it was just a meal, she seemed to be more willing to move towards that man.
"...Forget about eating, I have an appointment with someone tonight, what do you want to say to me? Just tell me now."
Qiao Jinglian was rarely rejected by others, but this woman had indeed rejected him many times. Perhaps many times, what even he himself didn't know was that there was a meanness in people's bones, and those who couldn't get it were slow and slow.
Slowly, it will become the best and most precious in your heart.
"Who did you date?"
He frowned and moved a little closer to her with his tall body, "That Mu Chenchu? If it's her, I'll tell you, your time belongs to me tonight! Also, you don't need to be so careful when facing me.
Look cautious. I am not a monster. I can open my mouth and swallow you."
Zijin, "…………"
"Come on, I have something important to talk to you about, but I'm hungry now, so I don't want to talk about it. I won't have the strength to talk until I'm full."
Zijin, "…………"
After following Qiao Jinglian helplessly and entering the elevator, Zijin took out her mobile phone. After thinking about it for a while, she sent a text message to Gu Yanshen.
——"I contacted a classmate online who happened to be in City C. We made an appointment to have dinner together in the evening, so I left first."
After confirming that there was no problem, Zijin pressed the send button with some guilt.
