Miss you
"Please." Hou Yongyan made way.
Mr. Li.
Who else does she think he is?
Xia Tangyue narrowed his eyes, and Li Cang was pushed into the tea room next door by Hou Yongyan. He looked haggard, with pale and loose skin wrapped around his jagged cheekbones, and dark brown age spots all over his neck. If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, it would have been hard to believe that this business tycoon was so old now.
However, in a sense, it was retribution. He abandoned his wife and children when he was young, and this was what he deserved.
"I'm very busy. What do you want to talk to me about?" Xia Tangyue said straight to the point, standing next to the screen with neither servility nor arrogance. The air was filled with a tense atmosphere, and the tea artist quickly left after brewing the tea.
Li Cang stared at her: "Don't you know who I am?"
"I know, so what?" Did he want her to be servile and fawning? She didn't work for him.
After thinking for a while, Xia Tangyue glanced at him unceremoniously: "It was you who instructed Gu Jiaping to steal my plan, right?"
Li Cang sneered: "You are very smart. Since you know it is me, you should be sensible and leave my son."
Xia Tangyue crossed her arms and looked cold. She suddenly remembered that she was softly banned by the industry before, and it was probably him who did it.
"Did you make some kind of deal with Wen Zheng? No wonder he was willing to return to Yaoying and clean up your mess."
The reason for such speculation is that after Wen Zheng resumed her position as president of Greater China, the soft ban was no longer relevant, and major galleries and institutions also approached her for cooperation again. It was hard not to make her suspect whether there was some inside story involved.
Li Cang raised his hand arrogantly, and Hou Yongyan immediately trotted over to bring him hot tea and waited for him to drink it.
"You are such an ignorant girl." Li Cang said in a deep voice, "I don't have time to waste words with you. If you want to continue to gain a foothold in the art circle, stay away from A Zheng."
"Huh?" Xia Tangyue was so angry that he almost laughed.
How could Li Cang have the nerve to say these words?
When he abandoned his wife and son, why didn't he think about how the orphans and widows would live? Now Wen Zheng has grown up and achieved success. The son he once abandoned has become capable, while he himself is old and weak. Now he wants to use his own son, who he kicked away, as a support for his old age and squeeze out the last bit of his value.
It's so shameless!
"Why should I listen to you?" Xia Tangyue raised his chin slightly and looked at him: "Why do you decide for Wen Zheng?"
"Just because you're his father? Haha, what a joke, why didn't I see you rushing to acknowledge him as your relative before? Now that you're old and useless and about to die, you remember that you still have such a son."
"It's funny. You're threatening me." Xia Tangyue took a step closer and shouted angrily, "If it was someone else who said these words today, I could still tolerate it for the sake of my future, but I can't tolerate you!"
"You old scumbag, don't let me see you again!"
"roll."
"You, you, you!" Li Cang had been in a high position for many years, but he had never been scolded like this. He was so angry that his arms were shaking and he almost couldn't breathe. Seeing this, Hou Yongyan's face immediately turned red, and he rolled up his sleeves to teach her a lesson.
Xia Tangyue immediately kicked open the wooden door of the teahouse and shouted, "Help! Someone is beating people! Someone is beating people here! The chairman of the LUMINOVA Group is bullying innocent people! The CEO of a listed company is ordering his henchmen to commit crimes in the street!"
Her voice was extremely harsh in the quiet and elegant club. Li Cang was a man of status, and was worried about being watched and photographed, so he left the tea room before the situation escalated.
Xia Tangyue was very angry. Thinking of Li Cang's expression just now, she felt sick to death. If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she really couldn't believe that there could be such a shameless person.
He abandoned his wife and children, causing Wen Zheng's mother to die of depression. Now he wants to use her as a bargaining chip to control Wen Zheng's every move.
That’s too bad.
gas!
The fallen leaves floated along the eaves to her feet. Xia Tangyue originally wanted to kick them away to relieve her anger, but she slipped and fell straight to the ground, hitting her knees on the stool on the ground.
"Ah——" She cried out in pain. Before she could react, He Rui rushed out from nowhere and asked anxiously, "Are you okay?"
Xia Tangyue looked at her knee, which was bleeding. He Ruicai helped her sit down on a stool.
"Why are you still here?"
He Ruicai said awkwardly: "I'm worried about you... After all, those people who came to you just now looked aggressive. What are they doing? Did they embarrass you?"
"nothing."
Seeing that she was unwilling to say more, He Ruicai stopped asking and glanced at the wound: "You need to see a doctor. Call your boyfriend to pick you up."
Xia Tangyue rubbed his sore ankle, straightened his back, and tried to stand up by holding onto the wall: "He's on a business trip to the United States. It's okay. I can just take a taxi myself."
He Ruicai's eyes lit up, and he asked in a low voice: "You went to the United States, so you are in a long-distance relationship? How can you do it by yourself? Let me accompany you to see a doctor."
"It's okay." Xia Tangyue shook his head. Although there was bleeding, the wound was not deep, and it would be less painful if he walked slower.
"Let me take you there." He Ruicai couldn't bear it any longer, so he asked Xia Tangyue to wait for him there for a while while he drove the car over.
He took Xia Tangyue to the clinic to bandage her wounds, and then sent her home.
"I have asked a friend to ask about the painting you are looking for. There should be news soon. I will contact you as soon as possible."
"Okay, thank you." Xia Tangyue felt quite embarrassed as He Rui had been busy for her the whole night.
Xia Tangyue: "Next time we meet, I'll treat you to a meal."
Then bring Xina and the others along.
"Sure, I'm always available."
As soon as he got home, Xia Tangyue couldn't wait to find Wen Zheng to complain. It was nine o'clock in the evening, which should be nine o'clock in the morning in the United States. Wen Zheng was probably at work at this time.
I don’t know if he is busy right now, so I sent him a WeChat message to test him out.
"I gave Li Cang a good scolding."
After sending the WeChat message, Xia Tangyue went to take a shower. When he came out wearing a bathrobe, he found that the screen of his mobile phone was flashing. Wen Zheng's handsome face was reflected on the interface of the video call, with a rare look of anxiety between his brows.
"Brother!" Xia Tangyue quickly picked up the phone and propped it up in front of him.
Wen Zheng seemed to be in a meeting. The blue light screen of the smart conference room was reflected against his background, and vague sounds of English discussions could be heard.
"Are you in a meeting? If it's not convenient for us to chat, I'll hang up first."
"No."
Xia Tangyue saw Wen Zheng raise his hand and seemed to make some gesture, and everyone around him fell silent.
"Speaking of your own, when did you meet Li Cang?"
Xia Tangyue nodded and told her everything, including Li Cang's threat to ban her.
"Then I couldn't help but scold him." Xia Tangyue held his cheeks with both hands and looked into Wen Zheng's eyes: "Brother, you already knew all this, right? Li Cang deliberately messed with me and used me to threaten you, is that right?"
Wen Zheng didn't say anything for a while, and then comforted him, "Don't think too much. I know Li Cang is using me, but I'm also using him."
Xia Tangyue vaguely sensed Wen Zheng's ambition. She was about to change her sitting position, but she pulled her wound and gasped in pain.
Wen Zheng asked, "What's wrong?"
Xia Tangyue bit his lower lip and shook his head.
If he knew that she was injured, he would definitely ask about it. And with his keen sense, he would definitely guess that she had someone to help her since she was unable to move. Although she and He Ruicai had nothing wrong, she chose to conceal it in order to avoid unnecessary trouble.
She changed the subject, resting her chin on the pillow, and said aggrievedly, "Brother, when will you come back? I miss you so much that I can't sleep at night."
"Well... my brother has been very busy lately, and he hasn't found a suitable buyer for the property he needs to sell." Wen Zheng rubbed his eyebrows.
Yaoying owed a lot of money because of his previous wrong decision, which led to the near-break of the capital chain. Xia Tangyue knew about this. Li Cang asked Wen Zheng to come back and take charge again in order to use his operational ability to save the crisis.
Xia Tangyue let out a long sigh, then lay back on the sofa with his phone in hand. His collar slid loosely to his shoulders, revealing half of his white shoulder bones, and the wet hair on his earlobes rose and fell gently with his breathing.
Wen Zheng asked pointedly, "Have you taken a bath?"
