Chapter 483: Business Battles
Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee
At this moment, Qin Xinying who was sitting in front of the TV, suddenly threw the remote control on the ground when she watched the news. She glared ferociously at Tang Xi on the screen, growling, “Tang Xi! You shameless bitch!”
She was bailed out by her grandfather at a great expense. How could Tang Xi say it was she who asked the French police to release her?! And… what she did had seemed to help Tang Xi. She didn’t defeat Tang Xi, but garnered so much more attention to her.
Qin Xinying stood up and turned off the TV. She was about to go to the study to explain to Qin Yue, when she saw Qin Yue coming out of the study with a dark face. Qin Xinying was a bit timid to go up to him. She pursed her lips and walked up to him, with a fawning smile on her face. “Grandpa…”
Qin Yue took a look at Qin Xinying and said with a straight face, “You screwed it up.”
“Grandpa, I know I was wrong. I shouldn’t have been so careless.” Qin Xinying pursed her lips and said softly, “Please give me one more chance.”
“Fine, I’ll give you another chance, but do you know what the consequences are if you are defeated by that girl again?” Qin Yue turned and looked at Qin Xinying, his face was without any expressions. “Have you considered clearly?”
Qin Xinying nodded hard. Qin Yue nodded. “You can’t handle that girl. Now you’d better find a way to solve this lawsuit. I’ll give you the money and connections you need, but you’ll have to solve the Empire Group’s legal team yourself.”
“Thanks, Grandpa.”
Qin Xinying didn’t expect that Grandpa wouldn’t scold her, despite how she messed things up. Instead, he had still agreed to help her!

Qin Yue glanced at Qin Xinying and a cold gleam flickered across his eyes. After Qin Xinying left, he returned back to his study. The TV in his study was still playing that news piece about Tang Xi. He looked at Tang Xi on the screen and gave a cold smile. “Tang Zhenhua, it seems that you’ve got a good granddaughter. She is just as crafty and insidious as you. So let’s see whether you or me will win in the end.”
As soon as Tang Xi entered her office, she turned on her workaholic mode. She didn’t stop working until the afternoon and even then it was only because she had decided to go over to Empire Entertainment. Because of the scandal of Xu Fang, the staff of the Empire entertainment all held a sense of worship towards Tang Xi. They had long wanted to hold a celebration party for Tang Xi, so when Tang Xi walked into the Empire Entertainment, the vice president of Empire Entertainment, Yang Le presented her with a bouquet of lilies. “Welcome back, President.”
Tang Xi took the flowers, handed them to Qiao Liang behind her and smiled, “I didn’t expect that you liked playing romantic?”
Being teased by Tang Xi for the first time, Yang Le blushed. He pointed at the agents and artists behind him and laughed. “They prepared this. I’m just being their representative.”
Tang Xi said thank you to everyone and said, “What happened recently may have made you panic, but, you should remember that, as a member of the Empire Group, we won’t be beaten by these small setbacks, understood?”
“Yes!”
In the following month, Tang Xi shuttled between City A and the capital. Sometimes she had classes during the day, but at night she was working hard in the office of the Empire Group.

During this month, the Empire Group and the Qin’s Group had fought eachother numerous times. Every time the Empire Group attacked the Qin’s Group, the later would recover quickly, which really impressed Tang Xi. However, then she heard that the Qin’s Group could hold on for so long because the consortium in Qin Yue’s hands had been supporting it from behind, and the little respect she had for Qin Benyuan was immediately gone.
During this period, the only thing that made Tang Xi happy was when Qiao Liang finally affirmed her capabilities and no longer followed her around all the time like before. Now she finally had freedom of movement, of course, provided that Little Six followed her to protect her.
Such days lasted for more than a month, and the war between the Empire Group and the Qin’s Group was finally called off with the victory of the former.
Tang Xi went back to the school and took an examination during the truce. What amazed the whole school was that Tang Xi got first place although she had hardly attended school, so Tang Xi applied for the permission for directly taking the college entrance exam without attending the classes…
The principal was a little reluctant because Tang Xi’s grades were so good. “You can come to school from time to time. With your talent, you can choose any top university abroad. Why not make an effort to study abroad?”
After all, your family has money for you to study abroad!
Tang Xi declined his kindness politely. And as the Spring Festival was coming, Tang Xi wished the principal happy Chinese New Year in advance. After getting the permission she wanted, Tang Xi went to her company with Little Six.
Yes, she went to The Queen. The Queen received countless orders these days,and many large shopping malls invited The Queen to open a store in their malls. Now The Queen had almost become the fashion leader of City A. Many celebrities and stars would wear the Haute Couture of The Queen instead of Dior or Chanel to attend events.
Tang Xi wanted to make The Queen a luxury brand instead of a popular one. If a brand was too popular, it wouldn’t be high-grade, so in the first five years, she wouldn’t try to make The Queen popular.
What she wanted was to earn money, and it was easiest to earn money from rich people.
So, Tang Xi’s eyes sparkled with excitement when she saw many luxury cars parked outside The Queen. It seems that she could pay off the loan within this month.
As soon as Tang Xi walked into the hall, the people waiting for her all gathered about. Even the ladies of note who were always arrogant couldn’t help but turn their eyes to Tang Xi. After all, Xiao Rou was The Queen’s endorser now!
Did she come here because The Queen was going to launch new products?
Yes, to Tang Xi’s pride, the Queen’s clothes sold so well because she was its endorser.
Now she has become even more beautiful and her figure was also getting better. Despite the fact that she still looked a bit fragile, she was almost perfect. The Queen had attracted many female customers because of her.
