Tang Qianheng did not go home.
When he heard that his father had some urgent matters to attend to in the office, he immediately thought of a plan so that the chauffeur would take him out to buy a present, then they headed towards the Feng residence.
It was such a rare opportunity for the boy to see his sister, so he wanted to chat for a while longer.
Upon arrival at the Feng residence, a rather enthusiastic aunt led him into a room. Several servants were moving things into that room.
“Heng’er, look, your sister will be moving in with my son tonight. Aren’t you happy? Aunty is certainly very happy!” Qiao Shiwan just couldn’t stop smiling.
Actually, she had been excited about this ever since she heard the news from her son.
Tang Qianheng pursed his lips and suddenly asked, “Is Aunty’s son very capable?”
Qiao Shiwan widened her eyes and replied, “Of course.”
“Can he out-fight my big sister? If he can’t, I won’t agree to the marriage.”
The smile on Qiao Shiwan’s face froze. Her hand that was stroking the little boy’s head stiffened slightly as she laughed and said, “Little child, you think too much.”
…
On the other end, Feng Chuchu and her entourage finally managed to walk out of that little alley, after all their belongings had been taken from them.
The first thing that Feng Chuchu wanted to do was to make a police report. However, she was stopped by Shi Chengan.
“Chu Chu, leave this matter to me. I remember their faces and I will make sure they pay for this.
One of them remarked, “Of all the people, they chose to mess with the three wealthy families. They’re in deep trouble for sure.”
Shi Chengan’s expression clouded over. He turned around and instructed the rest of them to not speak of this matter to anyone else.
It would be a joke if people found out that he, the Second Young Master of the Shi family, had been robbed. What kind of ridiculousness was this?!
“Tang Qianmiao was too much just then. No matter what, we’re classmates and she wouldn’t even lift a finger to help us. If she had only spoken up, I might not have lost my bag to those thugs!” One of the girls fumed.
“Such a heartless person, she’ll get her retribution!”
Lin Wenyu pursed her lips and then said, “Don’t be mad at her. She’s been like this since she was young. She’s a cold person, it’s just her personality. She doesn’t mean any harm.”
“Wenyu, why are you still speaking up for her? We have eyes and can see too. No matter what good things you say about her, it’s not going to change our opinion!”
Xu Youzheng looked at the girl who had just spoken and replied, “That’s not a fair thing to say. She doesn’t know us well. Even if she helps us, it’s out of goodwill. If she doesn’t, it’s not unreasonable too. I thought she was quite cool to be honest. Say, is she trained in the martial arts? She’s strong!”
“Shut up. Don’t talk about this person ever again.” Shi Chengan warned him icily.
Xu Youzheng fell silent.
Given something like this had happened and the girls had been crying until their makeup was smudged, they canceled their plans of dining at the restaurant and went home instead.
…
Lu Corporation.
In the meantime, a board meeting had been going on since 10.30 am and did not look like there was any intention of finishing up just yet.
The projector was telecasting today’s news, and they were reporting the news of Lu Qintian having been made a cuckold.
At the entrance of the meeting room, an unruly short-haired girl was maneuvering a big chair. She placed it against the door and then sat on the chair, crossing one leg over the other. Her arms were also crossed in front of her chest as she stared them down with a menacing and hostile expression.
A few middle-aged men and women were seated around the oval conference table. They were members of the Lu Corporation Board. All the directors looked very serious, and wore a mixture of complicated expressions on their faces.
At the head of the table sat Lu Xinqing and her husband, while Chen Lan, who was the litigant, was absent.
Lu Xinqing was rather agitated, however, her exquisitely made-up face hid the anger that was brewing inside.
Suddenly, she got onto her feet and snapped, “Today was meant to be the day we signed the agreement with Yihuan. It was obviously a joyous occasion but now you’ve all ruined it. The company’s loss translates into our individual losses
Are you all stupid or something?”
In response, one of the board members spoke up, “We’d like to see Chairman’s will. Only the documents signed by the true heir of the corporation are valid.”
