Tang Xi smiled and put the coffee cup on the table, she looked at Qin Xinying and raised her eyebrows. “Yes, so just take what I give you. Don’t do things that I don’t like behind my back. If you still want to enjoy everything you have now, don’t take me as a fool. You know, although I’m an easy-going person, I can be harsh when I get angry.”
The smile on Qin Xinying’s face froze and she looked blankly at Tang Xi. The latter smiled. “You told my whereabouts to Tang Jieren and his brothers, right? I remember I only told you about my whereabouts, and even my grandpa didn’t know it. Guess how I would end up if I boarded that airplane?”
Qin Xinying clenched her hands. It turned out that she didn’t get on that airplane! That was why she came back safe and sound. She didn’t come back until several months later because she wanted to see how they would be disappointed and scared when they saw her come back!?
“Xixi, I didn’t…” Qin Xinying reached out to take her hand and said in a low voice, “I swear I didn’t. I didn’t tell them about your whereabouts. You gotta trust me. We grew up together…”
“Stop it.” Tang Xi frowned, shook her head in disgust and stood up as she said coldly, “I don’t care whether you did it or not. I just want you to remember that give it a second thought before you do anything. Don’t always do bad things in my name. That really pisses me off, you know?”
Qin Xinying clenched her fists so hard that her nails sank into her flesh. Tang Xi looked down at Qin Xinying and said sternly, “You know, the Qin’s Group can’t survive without the Empire Group, so Xinying, sometimes I pretend not to know what you’ve done, but it doesn’t mean I really don’t know it. It’s just that I take you as my friend and I don’t want our friendship to be affected.” Tang Xi paused and then gave a sarcastic smile. “But I’m not sure whether you take me as your friend.” With that, she didn’t say anything more and quickly walked out of the café.
Qin Xinying stared at the back of Tang Xi and frowned. She must have found something out, or else she wouldn’t speak to her like this. She must have discovered something which was why she became so strange, but if she really did, what about the Qin’s Group? Thinking of what her father told her on the phone before she came here, Qin Xinying lunged to her feet and hurriedly caught up with Tang Xi and stood in her way. “Xixi, I think there must be some misunderstanding between us. Let’s have a good talk.”
To be honest, Tang Xi just wanted to throw up when she heard what Qin Xinying said. She had known what this woman had done to her, but she couldn’t speak it out, nor could she question her out loud why she did those things to her! So she couldn’t stand staying with her in the same room.
Although she spoke as if she had the advantages initiative in hethands , she actually couldn’t stand facing Qin Xingyin.
Tang Xi stared coldly at Qin Xinying and narrowed her eyes. “What misunderstanding? I never misunderstand you, however I don’t know whether you constantly misunderstand me or not.” Then she sidled past Qin Xinying.
“I love Qiao Liang.” Qin Xinying suddenly shouted out loud.
Tang Xi suddenly stopped. Qin Xinying stared at her frozen figure and gave a pleased smile and basked in the thrill of revenge. Then she said, “Now can we talk?”
Tang Xi narrowed her eyes, and didn’t look back. A cornered beast would do something desperate. How dared Qin Xinying say that to her? Did she really think she couldn’t do anything to her?
“You know every time you dated Qiao Liang…”
Smack…
Before Qin Xinying finished, she was slapped by Tang Xi. She looked at Tang Xi in shock who slapped her hard again. Qin Xinying covered her face with her hand and screamed hysterically, “Tang Xi, you’re mad!”
Tang Xi stared at Qin Xinying and said with a straight face. “Is your love to Qiao Liang a justifiable reason for you to kill me?”
Qin Xinying took a step back, and Tang Xi drew near her as she said coldly, “I didn’t want to talk about this matter with you, but you just provoked me. Don’t you think I should repay you?” Qin Xinying continued to step back and Tang Xi suddenly grabbed her hand, pulling her close she coldly said, “Are other people’s lives nothing in your eyes? Are others’ lives so cheap in your eyes?”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.” Qin Xinying struggled and tried to retract her hand from Tang Xi’s grip.
Tang Xi snorted. “You don’t understand? Good. It seems that you don’t want to talk frankly with me today.” Tang Xi said and threw her hand away hard. Qin Xinying who was in high heels almost fell over. Tang Xi turned to leave. “You’d better not regret your decision. I’ll investigate the air crash thoroughly. I hope you can still tell me that you don’t know anything when I find out about the truth!”

City A.
Wen Ning who was dressed vin a casual suit was standing beside a sports car and looking at the towering building. She looked so cool and different from common women, so a lot of men looked back at her, but she didn’t seem to care. She took out her cell phone and called a phone number. The phone rang and the other side answered the phone. “Lu Li.”
“I’m downstairs. Let’s go to lunch.”
Lu Li was in a meeting. When his cell phone rang, he had wanted to hang up the phone. When he looked at the caller ID, however, he raised his hand to suspend the meeting, stood up and took the phone call. Upon hearing Wen Ning’s words, he took a look out the window to the downstairs area. Maybe his eyes were too sharp, or maybe that woman was too outstanding in the crowd, and he immediately saw her standing beside a sports car. He paused as he said, “I’m in a meeting.”
“Meeting? When will the meeting be over? I can wait for you.”
Lu Li took a look at his Patek Philippe watch and pursed his lips. “In half an hour.”
“Ok, I’ll call you in half an hour.” Wen Ning said and hung up the phone.
Lu Li saw the woman downstairs suddenly turn to leave, pursed his lips and turned to look at the other people. “Continue.”
Xiao Jing took a look at Lu Li, stood up and said, “The meeting has been going on for three hours. Now it’s time for lunch. Let’s take a break and have lunch.”
