Chapter 522: Rescue
Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee
If he didn’t know that Qiao Liang and Lin Yuan grew up with Lu Li, he would have doubted that the two of them colluded to get rid of Lu Li and take Long Xiao Group as their own.
Qiao Liang paused and ordered his men, “Go check it out. We must find Lu Li!”
Tang Xi had been looking at Chu Ling. Seeing he hung up, she asked, “What’s up?”
“They have gone to check it out. I think they will get the results soon.” Chu Ling threw his cellphone aside, rubbed between his eyebrows and looked at Tang Xi. “Thank you. Your information helped us a lot.”
Tang Xi moved her lips and tried to smile only to find she couldn’t smile. She shook her head and looked at Chu Ling. “Please tell me as soon as you get any news from them. I have something to tend to. I’m leaving.”
Chu Ling watched her leave and didn’t say anything. He glanced at Little Six, told him to take care of Tang Xi and continued with his job.
Tang Xi left The Queen and went straight to the airport. She put on Tang Xi’s skin mask on the way.
Seeing her wearing Tang Xi’s skin mask, Little Six said, “Mr. Tang and your mother have gone back to the capital, but the public opinion is unfavorable for you. The other people of the Tang Family must behind this.”
Tang Xi nodded. “I see.” There was a ribbon of exhaustion in her eyes.
It was already midnight and she had been holding on without rest. With her weak body, now she felt dizzy.
But she didn’t have time for rest. She could only keep telling herself to hold on and not to lie down.

Tang Xi rubbed between her eyebrows, took out her cellphone and called Assistant Wang who soon picked up the call. Hearing the noise on the other side, Tang Xi frowned. “What happened?”
“We’re surrounded by journalists. There is something wrong with one of our projects, which is…” Assistant Wang quickly reported what happened to her.
Hearing her reporting, Tang Xi said calmly, “Put this matter aside for now. How is it going about the matter I asked you to investigate? Have you got any evidence now?”
Assistant Wang paused and soon answered, “Oh, yes. How could I forget this matter?! President, I have obtained the evidence that they colluded secretly. Once we make the evidence public, the other shareholders won’t stand by their sides, and we can even drive them out of the company!”
Tang Xi smiled when she heard Assistant Wang had got the evidence. She gathered up her energy and said solemnly, “We can’t make any mistakes at a time like this. Put aside other jobs for now. Drive to the airport. I’ll arrive at the airport in the capital in about three hours. Come to pick me up.”
Tang Xi said and hung up. Little Six took a look at her through the rear-view mirror, and suddenly Tang Xi turned her eyes to him and asked, “Little Six, are there killers in your organization?”
Little Six was startled by her words. He looked nervously at Tang Xi. “Ah? Miss… Miss Tang, do you want to kill someone?”
Tang Xi looked at him and asked, “If I do, can you help me?”
Little Six thought he’d better pretend not to hear this question…
Seeing Little Six refusing to answer her, Tang Xi pursed her lips in disappointment, turned to look at the view out of the window and gradually fell asleep.

Mexico.
Qiao Liang and his men were still searching for Lu Li. Lin Yuan wanted to come here to search for Lu Li himself, but Qiao Liang rejected and told him that he had to stay in Long Xiao and guard the headquarters.
At this time, Qiao Liang and the agents were carefully walking in the forest. A female agent behind him said in a lowered voice, “Chris, there are many land mines in this forest. Please be careful.”
But now they didn’t have time to clear the mines, so they had to be very careful at every step they made.
Qiao Liang took a look at that agent and asked with a frown, “Aren’t you in Dubai?”
“Jayce sent me here.” The female agent said.
Qiao Liang took a look at her and snorted. “He will regret it one day.”
The female agent smiled. “I’m going to search at the front.”
Qiao Liang looked at her back and continued to walk ahead. Just then, a man approached him and lowered his voice. “Are you sure he is here?”
Hearing the man’s voice, Qiao Liang frowned. That man spoke again, “I can’t just sit by and wait for the result. I can’t rest assured unless I see him safe and sound.”
Qiao Liang also lowered his voice. “If your identity is found by the others, you will be shot to death right away.”
“They won’t know if you don’t tell them.” The man said and walked forward.
Qiao Liang could only follow him.
One hour later, they finally reached that factory. Qiao Liang commanded the others to move forward silently. The factory was as empty as yesterday and everything in it was dusted. Qiao Liang signaled them to search for the entrance to the basement.
Soon someone found the entrance under a machine tool. They entered the basement one by one. To their shock, the basement was actually a human trial base! Even Qiao Liang couldn’t help clenching his hands.
“Let’s separate and search for Lu Li. We must find him!” Qiao Liang commanded, “Block all exits and allow no technician to leave here!”
These bastards would bring disaster to the world, so they wouldn’t be allowed to leave here!
As they moved silently and evaded all surveillance cameras carefully, the technicians didn’t discover them. Soon they got to the third underground floor. The experiments done here were even more heinous.
Qiao Liang sneered, took a look at the man beside him and coldly said, “These people are really evil. I can’t believe what I am seeing.”
The man clenched his hands and said, “Let’s find Lu Li first. I can’t imagine what has happened to him if he is here!”
Qiao Liang glanced at him and moved ahead.
About one hour later, Long Xiao’s agents had controlled all the people here, but still didn’t find Lu Li. Qiao Liang grabbed one of these people by the collar and asked coldly, “Where are they?”
“They… they are not here. They have early left!” The technician grabbed by Qiao Liang said with a trembling voice.
