Chapter 240: Sent Him to Hell
Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee
The journalist leveled his camera at Qiao Liang after he asked this. Qiao Liang sneered, snorted and then said with disdain, “Dare he frame me?”
Little Five who was standing behind Qiao Liang was stunned, and Xiao Jing who just came out of the elevator almost fainted. “Damn! I tried so hard to cover this up for you. What are you doing? Why the hell did you admit it?!”
At this moment, he only wanted to rush up and ask Qiao Liang, “What the hell are you thinking of?!”
The journalists were in an uproar. They pointed the microphones at Qiao Liang and asked Qiao Liang, “President Qiao, so you admit that you did hit President Lu?”
“President Qiao, your behavior will have an incredibly negative impact on your company. Did you take into consideration your company’s image when you did that?”
“President Qiao, how are you going to explain to your company’s shareholders?”
Qiao Liang frowned. “Why should I explain to them?”
Tang Xi who was watching the news in the corridor after class wished she could rush into the video and slap Qiao Liang. “Come on, how can you speak like this in front of these journalists who only desire to create trouble? Are you trying to ruin your image?”
Tang Xi’s classmates were also in an uproar, so were the students of other classes. A girl screamed out, “Oh, President Qiao is so handsome! He is so handsome on TV! He is my idol! I wanna be his fan!”
Another girl said with disdain, “Why do you like a man who is prone to violence? Do you wanna be abused by him?”
“Yes, how could he speak without any guilt after hitting people? Yes, he is handsome and rich, but so what? He’s got a terrible character. Did Lu Hongkun offend him? I think he is a bad person.”

Tang Xi frowned, looked back at that girl and soon recognized who this girl was. She cared about Qiao Liang, so she investigated the Qiao Family. This girl was Lu Xiaojing, the daughter of Qiao Liang’s father and his mistress.
Tang Xi raised her eyebrows, turned off the video and called Little Five up. Upon seeing the caller ID, Little Five who was standing behind Qiao Liang hurriedly walked to the side and picked up the phone. He told Tang Xi what happened here. With uneasy thoughts he knew that he mustn’t let Young Master know that Miss Xiao knew his phone number and was even talking with him on the phone, or else he would be doomed.
Hearing what Little Five said, Tang Xi raised her eyebrows, said she knew and then told Little Five to leave his young master alone and instead to just let him do what he wanted. She then hung up the phone and walked towards Lu Xiaojing holding her cellphone.
Lu Xiaojing was speaking ill of Qiao Liang, when she suddenly felt a figure draw close to her. She turned to look at the person only to find it was Tang Xi. She was surprised. She certainly knew Xiao Rou who was a star in the First High School of City A. Xiao Rou was not only beautiful but also had good grades. She was popular among the students and even the straight A students liked her a lot.
Lu Xiaojing’s tone softened when she saw it was Xiao Rou. She pursed her lips and asked, “What’s up?”
Tang Xi sneered. “I think you know.”
Lu Xiaojing frowned and her tone turned hostile. “How can I know?! If you don’t have anything to actually say, get out of the way. I have to go to class.”

“What’s your relationship with the guy being hit? Why did you slander Qiao Liang? Does Qiao Liang owe you money?” Tang Xi folded her arms against her chest and looked like a gangster. She would look even more like a gangster if she had a lollipop in her mouth…
When Lu Xiaojing heard this, a flustered look flashed across her face and she said angrily, “What are you talking about? I didn’t say anything wrong. Are we forbidden from speaking out for the victim of violence?” Then she snorted. “What’s your relationship with Qiao Liang? Why did you try so hard to defend him?!”
“I think I asked you first, right? You’re gonna answer my question first and then I’ll answer yours, Lu Xiaojing.” With a faint smile, Tang Xi looked at Lu Xiaojing whose face immediately turned dark, and said, “My brother is the vice president of the Qiao’s International Group. He surely knows what exactly happened. I just called my brother but what he said was totally different from what you said.”
Someone said “Huh?” and some suddenly said, “Oh, Yes, Lu Xiaojing, the man who was hit was your brother, right? Didn’t you say you were the Miss of the Hongkun Group? Your father is the chairman of it and your brother is the general manager of it, right?”
“It’s said Hongkun Group is bankrupt. Is it true?”
“Bullshit!” Lu Xiaojing scowled. “Nonsense! My family will never be bankrupt!”
Tang Xi suddenly giggled. Lu Xiaojing immediately looked warily at Tang Xi and asked angrily, “What are you laughing at?”
Tang Xi sneered. “It turns out you’re sister of that Lu Hongkun. Then you must know why Qiao Liang hit your brother, right?” Tang Xi’s face darkened. She squinted at Lu Xiaojing whose face suddenly turned pale and said coldly, “Don’t you know what your mother did to Qiao Liang’s mother? And don’t you know what your father and mother did to Qiao Liang and the Qiao’s International Group? And don’t you know why Lu Hongkun was hit by Qiao Liang?!”
“Bullshit!” Lu Xiaojing yelled at Tang Xi. “My mother and my father love each other! My mother didn’t steal anyone’s husband! And my mother… has never been a mistress!”
Tang Xi raised her eyebrows and smiled coldly. “Did I say she was a mistress? So she is a mistress in your eyes.”
“Nonsense! My mother is not!”
Just then, a girl suddenly screamed, “Oh my god! My idol is so charming! I’ll love him forever!”
“What happened?”
“Watch this. It’s unbelievable. The microblog users were all scolding Prince Charming Qiao and said, “Go to hell,” to him just now, but now they had become his fans and were apologizing to him!”
Tang Xi raised her eyebrows, took out her cell phone and continued to watch the news, and the others also took out their cell phones, not hearing the school bell ring at all.
Lu Xiaojing also hesitantly turned on her cell phone…
Tang Xi looked at her cellphone only to see Qiao Liang’s handsome face. He looked coldly at the camera and said flatly, “I don’t care about him slandering me, but if he dares to slander my mom, I’ll send him to hell. Lu Hongkun was courting death, so I didn’t mind helping him.”
