Chapter 207: A Good Show
Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee
Since Qin Xinying relentlessly abandoned and even trampled on the friendship with her, then she would let Qin Xinying know that without the friendship she gave her, she was nothing!
She would make Qin Xinying experience how it felt losing everything after betraying and cheating your friends.
At this time, someone knocked on the door, and Tang Xi was startled. She looked up only to find it was Little Five. She heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly said to Qiao Liang, “Go back. My mother will be here soon. If she sees you here, I don’t know what’ll happen. Little Six is waiting for you. Go back.”
Little Five blinked and smiled at Tang Xi, saying, “Miss Xiao, it’s nothing urgent. You can also know about it, so you don’t have to ask Young Master to go back with me.” Actually, Little Five was a bit worried when saying this. After all, it was about Miss Tang. However, it seemed that Miss Xiao was not angry with Young Master…
So he could report to Young Master about Miss Tang’s family affair in front of Miss Xiao, right? Little Five carefully observed Tang Xi’s reaction again, and after seeing that Tang Xi and Qiao Liang didn’t appear to have had an argument, he turned to Qiao Liang. Qiao Liang raised his eyebrows and looked at Little Five. Little Five was a bit frightened, he quickly stepped back and said to Qiao Liang, “Young Master, I do have something to report to you.”
I absolutely didn’t mean to disturb you and Miss Xiao!
Qiao Liang looked at the flustered Little Five and gave an evil smile, “Just you? Little Six didn’t have time to come over?”
Little Five almost burst into tears. Young Master really held a grudge against him. He just spoke out for Miss Xiao last time and Young Master hated him because of that? Was he jealous? Come on, Miss Xiao was as beautiful as a fairy. He knew he was not good enough for her, so he wouldn’t waste his time on wooing her, ok?

“Well… Young Master, Little Six was called by Mr. Xiao Jing to work for the company. You’re not going…” Little Five’s voice became very low when it came to the latter part of his words.
When Tang Xi heard Little Five’s words, she suddenly realized that she hadn’t seen Jing for many days. She immediately squinted at Qiao Liang and asked, “Is something wrong with your company?”
Qiao Liang cast a light look at Little Five and shook his head, “Nothing. Just a reshuffle. Your brother can handle it.”
Little Five curled his lips and complained in his heart, “You lied, Young Master”.Then he heard an angry shout from the door. “Damn you! Who said I could handle it? I’m exhausted and you’re here lovey-dovey with my sister?! Have you ever cared about my feelings?”
Tang Xi looked at Xiao Jing whose stubble had even grown out and hurriedly raised her hand. “Jing, I swear, I’ve asked him to go back. It’s not what you thought. I’m still your good sister!”
Xiao Jing glared at her. “Shut up, I didn’t hear you speaking out for me just now.”
Tang Xi shrugged. “I was going to do that.” Then she chuckled and said to Xiao Jing, “But Jing, you look manlier with a beard. Now you look so handsome!”
Diverted by Tang Xi’s words, Xiao Jing touched the stubble on his chin and raised his eyebrows at Tang Xi. “Yes! Do I look manlier? I think so too. I should grow a beard.”
The corner of Tang Xi’s eyes twitched and she laughed. “Actually, Jing, you look more handsome when you’re of the ‘little fresh meat’ style.”
Xiao Jing glared at Tang Xi and Qiao Liang. Qiao Liang, sitting beside her and completely being ignored, frowned with his face suddenly becoming cold. “Little Five, didn’t you just say you had something to report to me?”
“Yes, yes, Young Master, we’ve found that the Empire Group has cut off all the capital injection into the Qin’s Group. Do you think Mr. Tang is going to do something?”

Qiao Liang waved and asked Little Five to leave. Not getting Qiao Liang’s answer, Little Five came out of the ward with a confused face… What was wrong? So Young Master still avoided mentioning Miss Tang in front of Miss Xiao? Was he afraid Miss Xiao would be jealous?
Feeling that he had found the truth, Little Five widened his eyes and then shook his head. He went outside tutting at. As he expected, how could Young Master not care about Miss Xiao’s feelings? Look, he didn’t even mention Miss Tang, but just said Grandpa Tang and the Empire Group, but Young Master had hurriedly driven him out. He just didn’t admit his feelings to Miss Xiao!
In the ward, Tang Xi looked at Qiao Liang and asked, “Have you been paying attention to the Empire Group?”
Qiao Liang looked at Tang Xi. “As President of the Qiao’s International Group, isn’t it normal for me to pay attention to what is happening to other companies?”
“The Qin’s Group?” Xiao Jing frowned and looked at Qiao Liang. “Isn’t that Qin Xinying in the Design Department, the Miss of the Qin’s Group?”
Tang Xi raised her eyebrows and looked at Xiao Jing, “Jing, have you met her?”
Xiao Jing pursed his lips and then opened the door to tell Little Five to not to let anyone get close to the room. He then closed the door and asked Tang Xi seriously, “What is your relationship with her?”
Tang Xi pursed her lips and told him briefly about the relationship between Qin Xinying and her. Of course, she didn’t mention what she had seen in her dream. Xiao Jing frowned and said, “That’s why I came here.”
“You know she stole my design drawings?” Tang Xi looked at Xiao Jing in surprise. That was impossible. Qin Xinying had been very cautious about this matter. How could she let her colleagues find out about this?
Qiao Liang also raised his eyebrows and looked at Xiao Jing who drew up a chair to sit down and then said, “I found it accidentally.” Then he took out a USB drive from his pocket and handed it to Tang Xi.
“That day she hurried to find Qiao Liang, and I happened to go to the secretary office. She bumped into me and dropped this USB drive. Today I, for some reason, opened this USB drive only to find all design drawings in it have an embedded watermark -Tang Xi- so I wondered if these drawings are yours…”
Hearing this, Tang Xi gave a mocking smile. “I thought she would be more cautious. I didn’t expect that she didn’t even remove the watermark on the design drawings.” Tang Xi took the USB drive, looked at it and laughed. “I thought it might take me at least two or three years to beat her down. I didn’t expect the chance would come so soon. Qin Xinying must be anxious without the design drawings?”
Xiao Jing nodded. “I think so. Paris Fashion Week has sent an invitation letter to the Qiao’s International Group. The Qiao’s International Group will go to the Winter Fashion Show of Paris Fashion Week next month. She, as the special designer of the Qiao’s International Group, will be asked to design several outfits. So if she has no talent for design, I think she must be in a hurry to find the design drawings.”
Tang Xi raised her eyebrows and sneered. “Really? Then I can enjoy a good show.”
Qiao Liang and Xiao Jing looked at Tang Xi at the same time and asked, “What good show?”
Tang Xi raised her eyebrows. “Of course the good show where that Qin Xinying, the special designer, can’t even draw a design drawing.”
