Chapter 220: Instigate
Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee
Tang Xi stepped out of the elevator and looked back at Qin Xinying with coldness in her expression. “Qin Xinying, do you know what you look like right now? You’re just like a toad and Qiao Liang is like a white swan. You, the toad, is trying to swallow the swan! Unfortunately, the swan doesn’t like you, so you can only keep pestering him. You’re simply shameless!”
Qin Xinying almost exploded with anger. She glared coldly at Tang Xi and ground her teeth. “I dare you to say it again!”
Tang Xi sneered and looked at her casually. “You’re simply shameless!” With that, she turned to leave.
Qin Xinying clenched her hands hard and stared at Tang Xi’s receding figure viciously, saying coldly, “Xiao Rou, someday I’ll make you get on your knees in front of me and beg for my mercy. Not just you…” She would also destroy the Xiao’s Group. “Do you think you can humiliate me with the Xiao’s Group behind you? Good, then I’ll make the Xiao’s Group disappear from the world!”
With this in mind, Qin Xinying took out her cell phone and dialed a number. It had been quite a while before the other side answered the phone. Qin Xinying immediately said aggrievedly, “Grandpa Tang, would you please save Xixi?”
Tang Zhenhua said after a long pause, “Is it Xinying? What’s wrong with Xixi?”
Qin Xinying took a look at the elevator, paused for two seconds and walked out of the Qiao’s Building, weeping while walking. “Grandpa Tang, it’s all my fault. If it weren’t for me, Xixi wouldn’t go abroad so sadly. It’s all because of me, but can you help her first before you got angry at me?”
Tang Zhenhua, who was standing in front of the memorial tablets in the ancestral hall and looking at the paternity test report in his hand, frowned and lit the report with the candle with the other hand. Watching the paper was burnt into ashes, he asked flatly, “Xinying, what do you mean? I don’t understand you.”

He was quite sure a person like Qin Xinying would never confess what she had done before. She was just like her shameless and cold-blooded grandaunt who would never realize what she had done wrong, let alone apologize for that.
“Grandpa Tang, it’s my fault. I shouldn’t tell Xixi Qiao Liang fell in love with another woman…”
Qin Xinying walked into the garden in front of the Qiao’s Building and sat down in it. She watched Tang Xi got into Qiao Liang’s car and a resentful gleam flashed through her eyes, but she said softly, “That woman is too insidious. Xixi is simply no match for her. Qiao Liang wanted to break up with Xixi after that woman sowed discord between them several times. Xixi was so disappointed, so she agreed… Grandpa Tang, it’s all my fault. If only I didn’t tell her about this and stopped her from coming to City A to find this woman.”
Tang Zhenhua fell silent and thought coldly. Did this Qin Xinying really think he was an old fool? He would easily know everything about Qiao Liang’s life as long as he wanted…
But he didn’t reveal his real emotions but asked angrily, “Why didn’t you tell me earlier? Why didn’t you tell me earlier?!”
“I wasn’t sure, but now Xixi refused to go back home, and I worked at the Qiao’s International Group. Today I happened to see Qiao Liang and that woman made out in front of me, and that woman even laughed at Xixi in my face, so I… I called you, because I’m worried about Xixi.”
Tang Zhenhua looked at the memorial tablet in front of him, on which it carved My Dear Granddaughter Tang Xi. There were incense sticks and candles burning in front of it. His eyes became unfathomable and he asked coldly, “Is everything you said true? My Xixi suffered all these years because another woman stepped in between her and Qiao Liang?”

Hearing Tang Zhenhua’s words, Qin Xinying knew she had almost succeeded. An excited gleam flickered across her eyes, but she sounded indignant. She said with outright indignation, “Yes, I came out and asked her why she did this to Xixi, but she asked me to mind my own business and shut up, or else she would speak ill of Xixi in front of Qiao Liang. Grandpa Tang, that woman is simply cheeky!”
Tang Zhenhua secretly sneered and a sarcastic gleam flickered across his eyes. It turned out that this girl wanted to make use of him. She wanted to use his hand to get rid of that woman who provoked her today.
“What’s her name?” Tang Zhenhua asked sternly.
Qin Xinying’s eyes lit up and she hurriedly answered, “Her name is Xiao Rou. She is the Miss of the Xiao’s Group. With the Xiao’s Group behind her, she has her nose in the air and even claimed that the Empire Group was nothing in her eyes!”
“Okay, I got it.” Tang Zhenhua put down the memorial tablet in his hand and turned to leave the ancestral hall, saying, “I’ll deal with this Xiao’s Group. Don’t take it to heart. Xixi has been doing well abroad. I had a video call with her last night. Don’t worry about her. Concentrate on your work.”
As soon as Tang Zhenhua walked out of the ancestral hall, the stone gate closed automatically. There was a pupil scanning lock on the gate.
Upon hearing Tang Zhenhua’s promise, Qin Xinying said softly, “Okay, thank you for your concern, Grandpa Tang.” After she hung up the phone, she gave a complacent smile. She stared at the direction where Tang Xi left and laughed coldly. Xiao Rou, we’ll see. If the Empire Group wants to give somebody a hard time, even the Qiao’s International Group won’t be able to save him. I’ll see who can save you this time!”
On this side, Tang Xi, sitting in Qiao Liang’s car, was complaining how unlucky she was to meet Qin Xinying who ruined her mood, “I was really blind! How could I make friends with this kind of person?”
Now she had come back to life in the identity of Xiao Rou. If she really died, she would jump out of her coffin and scold Qin Xinying hard upon hearing her disgusting words.
Qiao Liang held her hand with one hand and steered the car with the other hand, saying gently, “One of your eyes was blind but the other not.”
Hearing his words, Tang Xi, who was searching for Jin Han’s phone number, raised her eyebrows. “Why?”
Qiao Liang smiled, put her hand onto his lips and softly kissed it. “Because you found me with the other eye.”
