Chapter 473: Tang Ling
Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee
Tang Xi angrily shut down the system and decided to glut herself with delicacies!
Seeing Tang Xi suddenly get angry as if being irritated by someone, Qiao Liang looked at her and asked, “What happened?”
Tang Xi forced a smile and shook her head. “Nothing.”
Qiao Liang raised his eyebrows and looked at Tang Xi deeply as if saying ‘do you think I’m blind?’ Tang Xi put her head on Qiao Liang’s shoulder and whispered, “I’m fine. It’s just that some stuff in my body went wrong again!” Then she looked at Qiao Liang. “I’m hungry. I want to drink soup. I want all the nourishing soups!”
…
The Empire Garden.
In the capacious study, Tang Zhenhua sat on the black leather chair behind the redwood table. He read the documents on the table and his face blackened gradually. He looked at the young man standing respectfully in front of him, asking with a frown, “Are these documents true?”
The young man looked at Tang Zhenhua and nodded. “Yes, Master, after you asked me to investigate the cause of the accident instead of looking for Miss, I found these in the past two months. We shall soon be able to find out the truth if we follow up with the clues I have found.”
Tang Zhenhua stared at the documents in his hand expressionlessly, and then his old face showed a disappointed look. “These people are really insatiable.” Then he looked at the young man, “Tang Ling, continue to investigate this matter.”
“Yes, Master.” Tang Ling nodded and left the room. Tang Zhong followed him out. At this time Tang Xi happened to come in. A gleam of surprised flickered across Tang Xi’s eyes when she saw Tang Ling, and obviously, Tang Ling was also very surprised to see Tang Xi.

Tang Ling took a look at Tang Xi. According to the findings of his investigation, the chance of surviving that accident was almost nil. He wondered how Tang Xi survived.
Tang Xi surely knew that Tang Ling must have investigated that accident, but she was not afraid of Tang Ling exposing her because… with grandpa around, no one could threaten her as long as grandpa believed in her. Thinking of this, Tang Xi smiled and greeted Tang Ling. “Tang Ling, I heard that you have been searching for me during my absence. Thank you.”
Tang Ling nodded solemnly. “It is what I should do. Congratulations to you on your safe return, Miss.”
Tang Xi smiled. “Thank you, let’s chat another day. I have to see Grandpa.”
Tang Xi walked past Tang Ling, said hello to Tang Zhong and turned to enter Tang Zhenhua’s study. Tang Zhong watched her go in and followed Tang Ling to the garden. Walking into the garden, Tang Ling immediately looked back at his grandfather and asked in a lowered voice, “Grandpa, when did Tang Xi come back?”
“When those people wanted to take over the power to manage the Empire Group.” Tang Zhong looked at his grandson and sighed, “Miss pressed down those people with the speed of thunder and dismissed Tang Hao. In a word, she reversed the situation in just two days. It seems that although she has been out all the time, she has been closely watching the situation of the Empire Group.”
Tang Ling frowned. He had been to the Pacific Ocean, so he knew how serious the accident was. He couldn’t believe the one he saw just now was really Tang Xi. But Tang Xi looked exactly the same as before, except that she became thinner.

“Well, don’t worry too much. Just do what Master orders. Those people won’t let Master off since they had laid their hands on Miss. We can’t put Master in any danger.” Tang Zhong raised his eyes, looked at Tang Ling lovingly and sighed. “I’m sorry to get you involved in this matter.”
Tang Ling frowned. “Grandpa, what are you talking about? Master saved your life and sponsored me to receive a good education. He is our benefactor and we should serve him. Take care. I’m going now.”
“Okay. Be careful on the road.” After seeing Tang Ling off, Tang Zhong sighed and turned around. But then he was surprised to see Tang Ling leaning on the Roman pillars with her arms folded up. He hesitated and then went over. “Miss, didn’t you go to see Master?”
“Yes, I was going to see grandpa, but then I thought that Tang Ling must have investigated that air crash, so I wanted to ask him about the accident first.” Tang xi straightened up, looked at Tang Zhong and smiled. “Since Tang Ling is not here, can you tell me about it, Butler Tang?”
Tang Zhong frowned, paused and said, “It’s not convenient for me to tell you about this matter. You can ask Master if you want to know, Miss.”
Tang Xi raised her eyebrows and turned up the corners of her mouth. “Let me guess, was my death… that air crash related to my uncles?”
Tang Zhong looked at her in surprise. “How do you know this, Miss?”
Tang Xi smiled. “That’s because, before I left, I had found evidence of their embezzlement, and I threatened them with it to leave the company themselves.”
“Really…”
Seeing Tang Zhong seemed to be shocked at her words, Tang Xi laughed and said, “I’m kidding. If I really had the evidence of their embezzlement, how could I go abroad at that critical moment and give them a chance to murder me?” Tang Xi said and waved her hand at Tang Zhong. “Okay, I’m going to see Grandpa. Butler Tang, can you have the servants cook me black chicken soup? I want to drink it.”
Qiao Liang, her ‘bodyguard’, was standing beside her, “…”
Tang Zhong went to have the servants cook the soup. Tang Xi walked towards the study and Qiao Liang could not help but look at her. Tang Xi felt his gaze was a bit creepy, because he looked at her as if looking at a stranger, so she turned her eyes to him and coughed. “Why are you looking at me like this?”
“You have had five pots of soup today, abalone soup, ginseng chicken soup, pig’s trotters soup, turtle soup and crucian carp soup, and now you want black chicken soup?”
He was so surprised because Tang Xi’s stomach seemed to be bottomless today. She drank up all those soups. Not only that, but she also ate all the meat inside. And now she still wanted to drink black chicken soup… He was a bit worried about her.
Tang Xi blinked his eyes at Qiao Liang. “I need to nourish my body, okay? These are nourishing soups, and I think they must be good for my health.”
“Too Much Water Drowned the Miller.” Qiao Liang said word by word.
Tang Xi blinked her eyes, looking at Qiao Liang, “Or you can tell Butler Tang not to make the soup for me…”

The Insemination
"You where going to do what?" he shouts causing me to jump a bit. I look at his face and see anger on it. "I said I was thinking about it. I changed my mind," I rush to say. "I'm sorry." As he runs a hand through his hair he picks up the glass vase and throws it against the wall. Rushing past him, I hurry to the door. Once my hand is on the silver doorknob I pull it open only to have it closed. Turning around I meet his gaze. His normal blue eyes are now black with a hint of gold. "I think I should go," I say barely as a whisper. "Mine," he growls. "Yes, I know it's yours but-," I say but he cuts me off again. "Mine," he growls again. Before I have the chance to ask him what he meant, he hovers over my body, and before I have the chance to move, I feel sharp teeth penetrate my skin. Kicking and screaming, I try to move out of his grasp. Yelping out in pain, he finally takes his teeth out, and looks at me with his blue eyes. He looks at me in horror. "What did you do to me?"
