The corridor fell silent for a moment.
Guan Kui opened her lips, but couldn't say a word.
It was truly horrifying.
She had known Tang Yue for many years and considered herself to know him quite well. That handsome man was always calm and reserved in matters of the heart, aloof and detached. During his studies abroad, beautiful women of all skin colors from both China and abroad boldly expressed their love for him, but he coldly rejected them all, famously clueless about romance.
Is it... that I've finally figured it out?
Surprised and suspicious gazes focused on Yu Wan. After a long while, Guan Kui subconsciously asked gossipy, "Was it fun?"
A man who has been celibate for 28 years, suddenly discovers true love, his pursuit must be fierce, right?
The most, most, most crucial thing is...
The aloof and otherworldly nobleman has fallen from his pedestal, and the reversal is incredibly satisfying!
Tang Fengji: "???" What's going on now?
Yu Wan found Guan Kui quite interesting, raising her phoenix eyes and saying, "So-so." In fact, that guy is quite cunning!
Guan Kui laughed out loud upon hearing this. It seems that Tang Yue's road to winning back his wife is long and arduous!
With a quick glance at her pretty peach blossom eyes, she took out her phone and said cheekily, "Mind taking a photo together? I want to post it on my WeChat Moments."
Yu Wan frowned slightly.
Tang Fengji: "..." This isn't his script!
"Hahaha... Forget it, Miss Yu doesn't like taking pictures." Tang Fengji suddenly interjected, stopping her, "As soon as the media publishes Miss Yu's photos, they will be deleted within ten minutes. If Miss Guan wants to take pictures, how about you and I?"
The thought that he had inadvertently fostered the growth of their relationship made him grit his teeth in hatred, and he was determined to find a way to prevent Yu Wan from entering Guan Kui's social circle!
He asked Cao Jin, and he learned that Lily had offended Yu Wan at the time. Later, someone went to great lengths to frame Lily and the Genesis Group. Although the traces were completely erased, in the world of the wealthy, who else but Miss Yu could pull off such a grand scheme?
To Tang Fengji, Lily was merely one of many lovers, unlike Cao Jin, with whom he had invested genuine feelings. However, Yu Wan's actions were tantamount to a slap in his face; ha, just a nouveau riche's daughter!
Sensing the malice in Tang Fengji's words, Yu Wan's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and annoyance crept between her delicate brows. What's with all this effeminate banter from a grown man? If you've got the guts, show your fists on the street and let's have a go!
Just as they were about to roll up their sleeves and drag the person out...
"Who do you think you are?" Guan Kui frowned, her gaze disdainful and sarcastic.
She only gave him a little respect out of respect for Tang Yue, but she didn't expect him to take advantage of the situation and not know his place at all.
Tang Fengji's face turned pale and then red, and he forced a smile, trying to save face: "Sorry, I had a couple too many drinks tonight. Taking a photo of Miss Guan alone would cause misunderstandings. If we're going to take a photo, I'll take a solo one for you. Don't worry, I'm very good at it; I take many of the company's models' photos." Naturally, in the end, they ended up on the bed.
Yu Wan lazily withdrew her gaze. Tang Fengji was truly hopelessly stupid. His brain had been completely emptied by women. How could he compare a model to Guan Kui?
As expected.
Guan Kui's face was so dark it looked like it could be wrung out of water. She sneered, "There's no need for taking photos. Mr. Tang, if you have that free time, you might as well learn how to speak properly from scratch."
"That's not what I meant, Miss Guan..." Tang Fengji realized he had misspoke, his face drained of color in an instant, and he sobered up considerably in a moment.
"Yu Yu, let's go to the restroom." Guan Kui took Yu Wan's arm and pulled her inside.
Yu Wan glanced down at the arm draped over her arm, her eyes flickering. It was the first time a girl had linked arms with her like a normal best friend.
Before she could even finish her thought, Guan Kui had already pulled her quite a distance away.
Watching helplessly as the two entered the women's restroom, Tang Fengji stomped his foot in regret and hurriedly called Tang Yue for help.
-
The Tang family's old residence.
The atmosphere at the table seemed harmonious on the surface, but in reality, it was tense and confrontational.
The chubby boy, Tang Qingyao, kept his head down, shoveling rice into his mouth, not daring to utter a sound.
"...Second Uncle, why do you want to restart the AI705 project? You should know that it was this project that led to the Tang Group's bankruptcy." Tang Yue rested his left hand on the armrest, slightly propping up his chin, and smiled casually: "As your own nephew, how could I possibly betray you?"
His face, which had been gentle, now had an indescribable coldness.
Tang Zhanhang replied calmly, "The AI705 project has a very promising future. It was only because the cash flow of other projects dried up that the project was shelved. I've reached an agreement with Gao Lingchuan. As long as you provide the complete project proposal, he will pay you 100 million yuan. Although it's a drop in the bucket compared to the 1 billion yuan debt, it's still a huge sum of money."
He spoke with feigned concern for Tang Yue, saying earnestly, "Your second uncle is of little use. Genesis Group may seem glamorous, but its cash flow is less than 30 million, so he can't help you. I learned by chance that Gao Lingchuan was interested in the AI705 project, which is why I took the initiative to contact him for you."
Tang Yue raised one eyebrow with great interest. It seemed that after the S organization's incident was exposed last time, Tang Zhanhang and others were eager to push the Gao Group out as a scapegoat.
He lowered his eyelids, concealing the sarcasm in his eyes, and went along with it, asking, "What I'm more curious about is why the Gao Group launched the AI705 project?"
After a moment of silence, Tang Zhanhang hesitated before speaking, "As far as I know, the Gao family started contacting the original project team members two months ago. Do you think the Tang Group's bankruptcy might be related to Gao Lingchuan?"
Tang Yue said "Oh," with a slight rise in his voice to indicate interest.
"I'm just guessing, I have no evidence whatsoever." Tang Zhanhang said with a smile, knowing when to stop. "Maybe I'm being paranoid. Many groups are interested in the AI705 project, but only the Gao family has put it into practice. Maybe it's just a coincidence."
Tang Yue's left hand hung down naturally, his long, slender, fair fingers resting on the table, and he tapped them.
Seeing his subconscious contemplation, a fleeting smile crossed Tang Zhanhang's eyes as he poured a full glass of wine. He was simply planting a seed of doubt in Tang Yue's heart; his exceptionally intelligent nephew would investigate on his own.
By then, the evidence he left behind will gradually come into play, and Gao Lingchuan will definitely not be able to escape.
A sinister glint appeared in Tang Zhanhang's eyes.
Buzz...
The phone on the table suddenly vibrated a few times.
Everyone's attention was drawn to it.
Tang Yue picked up his phone and glanced at it, his handsome brows furrowing even more. He turned slightly to look at Tang Zhanhang: "It's Qingyao calling."
Tang Zhanhang's face darkened as he recalled the time when Tang Qingyao caused the Genesis Group to suffer a devastating attack: "You take the call. I also want to know where that rebellious son is gallivanting now that he didn't attend the family banquet."
Tang Yue nodded slightly and answered the phone.
soon.
After listening to Tang Qingyao's account, he suddenly stood up and said expressionlessly, "I'm going there now."
