Chapter 568: Love is about to start, how can it just stop?

Xiang Hai is dead?

Assistant Ning on the other end of the phone spoke clearly: "Our President Xie sent someone to stake out the hospital and found that something was wrong with Xiang Tao and Xiang Mingzhu. He found a nurse and sneaked in, and heard that Xiang Hai died after failed rescue efforts."

The head of one of the four major families died just like that.

It's really sad!

"The Xiang family must be in a state of chaos right now, but the news is still kept secret. Even the middle and senior management of the Xiang Group don't know about it, only the Xiang family knows about it. Xiang Tao will definitely choose to keep the news a secret until he stabilizes the Xiang Group."

This is a choice that any normal person would make.

At this critical juncture, if the news of Xiang Hai's death spread, the Xiang family would definitely be doomed by the combined efforts of several families.

"Another discovery is that Xiang Ze left the country overnight! He must have sensed the crisis of the Xiang Group, so he sold several properties, several luxury cars and some luxury goods at low prices during the day and ran away with the money."

All signs indicate that the Xiang family is really doomed!

Xie Xubai's assistant considered and spoke again: "Our President Xie would like to ask you what you plan to do next?"

Huo Xingzhou changed his hand to hold the phone, buttoned up his shirt with his right hand and said, "What does Xie Xubai think?"

"Our President Xie said that since he and Xiang Tao grew up together, he should be given a night to catch his breath. Let's see if he can turn things around. If not, it means that the heir of the Xiang family is incompetent and will not be able to protect the Xiang family in the future."

Huo Xingzhou smiled and said, "He's quite nice. Xie Xubai, do you need to recite a Buddhist sutra for the fish before killing it?"

After all, he was soaked in sandalwood and had a bit of Zen in him.

"Mr. Huo, you are such a joker, but our Mr. Xie prefers to eat vegetarian food and rarely eats meaty and fishy food."

"No wonder I couldn't chew a piece of fat meat for so many years. It turns out I'm just a picky eater."

Huo Xingzhou said calmly, "Public opinion will continue to exert pressure. Let's see what kind of crisis public relations response Xiang Tao can give tomorrow. When things reach their extremes, they will turn around. We really need to loosen up the Xiang family's nerves."

Assistant Ning guessed what he meant and said, "So you agree with our President Xie's approach?"

"Don't call me at night unless it's extremely urgent. I'm not that kind of lonely person."

Huo Xingzhou hung up the phone directly.

Qiao Xi leaned against the bed and asked him, "Any business?"

Huo Xingzhou pressed the power button, "It's gone now? I'll give you a bath to prevent the wound from getting wet."

His eyes were dark and he stared at her intently.

Qiao Xi paused and nodded slowly: "Don't wash for too long."

The man chuckled: "That's not up to me, nor you."

Once the passion arises, you can't just stop it.

People cannot control their inner desires all the time.

Besides, he didn't want to restrain himself.

…

On the other end of the phone.

Assistant Ning was sitting in the passenger seat, looking at his phone with a black screen, then turned to look at Xie Xubai in the back seat.

"Mr. Xie, he hung up and mocked you."

Xie Xubai looked out the car window at the majestic Imperial Capital People's Hospital and asked nonchalantly, "What is he mocking me for?"

"They said you're alone, so don't call him in the middle of the night." Special Assistant Ning told him the truth and added fuel to the fire, "Come to think of it, Mr. Huo is two years younger than you."

He has a wife and a warm bed, and maybe he will even have a child in no time.

However, Mr. Xie from their family is still a bachelor, and he was rejected when he proposed to be someone's brother-in-law.

Xie Xubai smiled gently: "Do you want to change your boss?"

"I don't mean that, hehe."

The flickering street lights on the roadside were reflected in Xie Xubai's eyes, as if they were shining brightly.

His special temperament was highlighted to the fullest.

"Ning Yuan, contact Xiang Tao now. Tell him to give me twelve hours to do crisis PR and save the Xiang family. During these twelve hours, we will not take action against the Xiang family. After this time, the Xie family will take the initiative to attack."

Always give others a way out and don't push them into a desperate situation.

If you sell your property like Xiangze did, you can live a more comfortable life in the second half of your life.

“Yes, I’ll call now.”

…

In the intensive care unit of the hospital.

Xiang Mingzhu cried so desperately that she could hardly breathe.

The moment the doctor announced that resuscitation was futile.

Her mind went blank and her whole world seemed to be turned upside down.

She... pissed off her own father to death.

Such a huge pot fell down and almost knocked her unconscious.

Even the look in her eldest brother's eyes when he looked at her seemed to be filled with a bit of disgust and hatred. He hated her for pissing their father off to death.

Xiang Mingzhu covered her lips, but her tears continued to leak out.

Xiang Tao's face was full of dejection, and his eyes were red. He glanced at Xiang Mingzhu coldly, and said in a hoarse and trembling voice: "Now...are you satisfied? It was clearly a win-win situation, but it was all ruined because of your jealousy!"

"Now everyone outside is waiting to see the Xiang family make a fool of themselves. This time, let alone maintaining the Xiang family's position, it's even a question whether they can gain a firm foothold in the imperial capital!"

Xiang Tao's heart turned cold, and he slowly forced back his tears.

"Originally, after Lu Yingxue won the first prize, our Xiang family and the Lu family would be able to move up a level and squeeze out the Guan family without any problems! Xiang Mingzhu, one wrong step will lead to another."

"I'm sorry, brother! I really didn't expect to piss off father to death. I said those things in anger..."

Xiang Mingzhu knelt in front of him and begged him, "I really regret it!"

She regretted it so much that her intestines turned green.

"Brother, hit me. Beat me to death so that father can pay for his life. I would rather die than live..."

Xiang Tao simply shook her hand off, his throat so sour that he couldn't speak.

As the eldest son of the Xiang family, he had no right to wallow in grief. There was still a big mess waiting for him to clean up.

Xiang Tao wiped away the tears that had overflowed from his eyes and looked at the medical staff in the room: "Everyone is familiar with my Xiang family. Please keep the news of my father's death confidential and announce it after the Xiang family is stable."

"Okay, young master."

"Yes, young master."

The Xiang family is in the medical business, and these are all our people.

Very tight-lipped.

Xiang Tao felt better. He said, "No matter who asks, tell them that my father is in good health. It just takes a simple treatment and he will be fine after a while. Please!"

He bowed deeply.

"Young Master, please don't be so polite. This is our job."

"Don't worry, we will keep it absolutely confidential. No matter which media asks, we will give a unified answer."

Xiang Tao nodded slightly.

He was about to call the company to inquire about the situation, but he received a call from home.

Xiang Tao answered the phone.

"Young Master, the Second Young Master sold the house, car, and a bunch of luxury goods, took all the family money and ran away! We couldn't stop him, what should we do now?"

It's like adding insult to injury.

Xiang Tao was so angry that he almost couldn't stand still: "What did you say? Xiang Ze fled the country?"

At this critical moment of life and death for the Xiang family, Xiang Ze actually ran away!
