Chapter 281: Qiao Liang’s Identity
Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee
Tang Xi. “… I just know how to dress wounds…”
“Really? But I think your medical skills are superb.” Chu Ling looked at Tang Xi and narrowed his eyes. “My attending doctor checked my wound and told me even he wouldn’t be able to finish that operation so perfectly, but you managed to do that in a restaurant’s toilet and saved my life.”
At that time, he almost fainted from the pain. He didn’t know what the woman was using to do the operation on him… Was it the tableware from the restaurant…?
Looking at the frightened look of this woman, Chu Ling thought his guess must be right. He suddenly narrowed his eyes, stood up and looked at Tang Xi, “What did you use to carry out the operation on me that time? Was it a steak knife?
Tang Xi. “…” I will never tell you, haha!
Tang Xi timidly shrank behind Qiao Liang, and Qiao Liang frowned and stopped Chu Ling, as he said coldly, “Young Master Chu, she saved your life! How can you treat her so impolitely?”
Lu Li also smiled. He raised his eyebrows and looked at Chu Ling, “Young Master Chu, don’t be like this. If Miss Xiao hadn’t helped you, you would have turned into dust by now. How can you still own such a big financial group and enjoy your life, right?”
Chu ling squinted at Qiao Liang and found that he had been protecting this girl. He suddenly narrowed his eyes. “What’s your relationship with her?”
Tang Xi blinked and Qiao Liang put his arm around Tang Xi’s waist. “What do you think, Young Master Chu?”
Chu Ling narrowed his eyes. He had guessed what relationship they had! He suddenly thought of something, stood up and walked up to them, asking Qiao Liang, “Is this company hers?”

Tang Xi smiled. “Yes, it’s mine. I think it’s time for you to pay me back, right?”
Chu Ling glanced at Tang Xi who pretended not to notice it. Lu Li hadn’t introduced himself and Tang Xi didn’t ask who he was. What was most important to her now was to persuade Chu Ling. She never expected that that man she saved was actually Chu Ling, the commercial genius!
Chu Ling snorted and looked at Qiao Liang. “So you insist I must stay to manage the company for this girl?”
Qiao Liang grunted. “Two years. I won’t stop you wherever you go in two years.”
“Do you know how much I can earn in two years?!” Chu Ling snapped. “You just gave me a lift on your plane and I have to pay you two years of me?”
Qiao Liang said with a straight face. “You can refuse.”
“Haha, I just hid from you for one month and you’ve blown up several plants of mine. If I refuse, can I survive?” Chu Ling felt Long Xiao was made up of a bunch of bastards who liked backstabbing, and he alone was too weak to handle them. Damn it!
Qiao Liang asked, “Then what’s you choice?”
“Okay, just two years, as long as you…”
Qiao Liang interrupted him. “Sure, but provided that The Queen will become a global top-level luxury brand in two years. If you can’t do this, I think there is no need for your “Ling World” to continue to exist, right?”
Chu Ling glared at him. “Are you threatening me?”
Qiao Liang held Tang Xi in his arms and sat down as he said expressionlessly, “No, Young Master Chu, I’m discussing with you.”
In the end, Chu Ling agreed to serve at The Queen for two years and promised Qiao Liang that he would make The Queen a top-level luxury brand before he left. He then glared at the three of them sullenly and left the company, telling them he would go to work in three days and before that don’t disturb him.

Tang Xi looked at the back of Chu Ling who was obviously very angry and shouted, “President Chu, shall we treat you to dinner?”
Chu Ling narrowed his eyes, turned around and glared at Tang Xi. “Shut up!”
Tang Xi laughed and saw Chu Ling off. She then turned to Qiao Liang and signaled him to introduce Lu Li to her.
Qiao Liang looked at her smiling face, rubbed her hair and turned to Lu Li. “Lu Li, my good friend.”
Lu Li looked at Tang Xi with a smile, stood up and shook hands with her. “I’ve heard a lot about you, and today I finally got the chance to meet you. Nice to meet you. I’m Lu Li. You can call me Ah Li, or Wilson.”
Tang Xi smiled and reached out her hand towards Lu Li. “You can call me Xixi.”
Lu Li paused and cast a questioning glance at Qiao Liang. The latter smiled and said to him, “You can also call her Xiao Rou.”
Lu Li smiled. “Ah Yuan was badgering me to take him with me. If you go to Country M, do please have a meeting with him. Let’s have dinner tonight. I have something to tend to this noon, so excuse me for I can’t have lunch with you.”
Tang Xi liked the gentlemanly manner of Lu Li. She nodded with a smile. “Glad to meet you, but it’s rude to call you Ah Li. If you allow me, may I call you Brother Lu?”
Lu Li nodded and smiled. “Sure, you can call me that. I always wished I could have a sister. I’m very honored to have a smart and beautiful sister like you.”
Tang Xi thought Lu Li really had a smooth tongue, and she said it was also her honor to have a brother like Lu Li.
After seeing Lu Li off, Tang Xi sat on the sofa and looked at Qiao Liang who had been silent as she said with a smile, “Huh? Long Xiao?”
Seeing her look, Qiao Liang laughed and came over to rub her hair. “Yes, Long Xiao, I’m one of its owners, and the other two are Lu Li and Lin Yuan, aka, Wilson and Jayce. Little Six calls them Mr. Seven and Mr. Nine.”
Tang Xi gaped. Qiao Liang sighed. “Alright, I admit that I drove Lu Guangxiong out of the Qiao’s International Group so easily five years ago, because I have Long Xiao Group behind me. That’s why I won so quickly. Lu Li came here today to help me handle some matters.”
Tang Xi looked at Qiao Liang and the latter sighed. “Although the Qiao’s is powerful, it will inevitably undergo a siege when it faces so many opponents at the same time. So I have to use Long Xiao Group to distract those people. And if the Qiao’s can solve these companies quickly in the meantime, the business circle of City A will be reshuffled.”
Tang Xi pursed her lips and looked up at Qiao Liang, asking, “Can you answer a question for me?” Qiao Liang looked at her, “Yes?”
