Chapter 526: We Don’t Want the Shares
Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee
Tang Ya agreed with Xiao Hongyi. She acknowledged Tang Zhenhua as her father because he really was, not because he could offer her money. Besides, she didn’t lack money. Although the Xiao’s Group was no match for the Empire Group, she was satisfied with what she owned.
Tang Xi didn’t expect to be rejected by them so firmly. She looked at the two of them and sighed. “But won’t you ask Rourou for her opinion? Perhaps she is willing to accept these shares.”
“No, we know what kind of person Rourou is. She will never accept these shares.” Tang Ya said seriously, “And I hope you don’t…”
“Aunt, do you know that I almost had an air crash accident?” Tang Xi suddenly interrupted Tang Ya. “That air crash is not an accident but a murder. If I were on that plane, I would have died.”
“What do you mean?’ Tang Ya looked at Tang Xi in surprise. Did she try to intimidate her? Someone wanted to murder her?!
Tang Xi said with a frown, “You know, many people want my position, so they will try every possible means to get rid of me. They want to drive me out of the Empire Group or even kill me, and then the Empire Group will be theirs.”
Tang Ya and Xiao Hongyi exchanged a glance. Tang Ya said, “So you want to give up on the Empire Group?”
“No, I just want to give you and my grandpa a guarantee. As long as you agree, I can transfer my shares to Rourou, and then even if something bad happens to me, you can get my properties and Grandpa’s later life will be guaranteed. “Tang Xi looked out of the window. It was pitch-black outside and her face was reflected on the glass…

“I just want to be prepared. Then whatever happens, those people won’t get their way.”
Tang Ya looked at Tang Xi in surprise. Why did she feel her niece speak as if she had died once? She sounded so tired and sad…
“You’re still so young…” Tang Ya looked at Tang Xi.
Tang Xi paused, looked back at Tang Ya and smiled. “Yes, I’m still young, but Aunt, you know, a kid from a family like mine will make his will as soon as he’s born. Different from the children from common families, we have too many properties, so if we don’t prepare in advance… it will be too late when an accident happens.”
Tang Ya still wanted to say something, but Tang Xi continued, “Just like yesterday, you and Grandpa are still chatting, but the Qin’s Group suddenly stabbed the Xiao’s Group in the back. When we finally solved the Xiao’s Group, we found out that there are traitors in our Empire Group and our projects have a problem.”
“But…” Tang Ya still hesitated.
Tang Xi was relieved to see Tang Ya was almost persuaded by her. She said, “You don’t have to worry about anything. What I mean is that Xiao Rou will inherit all my properties if I die. I’m not saying I’m going to walk away right now.”
“I still think it’s not proper. It’s ominous to you. We just met and you’ve decided to make a will to give my daughter all your shares? I don’t think I can accept your generous offer, nor will Rourou.”
Tang Xi almost burst into tears. Why couldn’t she just give her own money out?!
God!
She could accept it! She could accept it on behalf of herself!
It seemed that this way was not gonna work, and she had to find another way out.

Sleepless for two days and one night, Tang Xi was tired. Taking Xiao Hongyi and Tang Ya into their room, she went back to her room, took a shower and called Qiao Liang, but she couldn’t get through to him. She frowned and called Little Five. The latter complained sadly to her that Qiao Liang had abandoned him. Tang Xi pursed her lips, put the cellphone aside ignoring Little Five who was still complaining about Qiao Liang, and then pressed the recording key.
Then she fell asleep in bed.
On the other side of things, Tang Ya and Xiao Hongyi couldn’t fall asleep. They stood at the window and looked at the beautiful night view of the Empire Garden. Xiao Hongyi looked at Tang Ya and frowned. “What do you think Tang Xi meant? Was she testing us or she really meant it?”
Tang Ya shook her head. “No matter if she was testing us or really meant it, I won’t accept her offer. I just want Rourou to live a carefree life. I don’t want her to worry so much. Girls are supposed to live happily. Xixi looks so tired. I think she must have been without sleep for long. Rourou’s body is not strong. I don’t want her to work as hard as Xixi.”
Xiao Hongyi nodded in approval. “Yes, you’re right. Rourou already has The Queen. If she also takes over the Empire Group, she will be exhausted. We’d better not accept Xixi’s offer.”
Tang Ya sighed and said remorsefully, “I’m to blame.”
Xiao Hongyi looked at Tang Ya in surprise and the latter looked at him and sighed. “If I could have restored my memory earlier, I would have stayed by Father’s side and Xixi wouldn’t have had so many horrible experiences. Xixi who is still so young has considered making a will, which shows how dangerous her life is.”
“I think I’m to blame for all these things. I can’t defend my parents or my child. I’m really useless.”
Xiao Hongyi gently hugged Tang Ya and whispered to her, “How can you blame yourself for this? You were only three or four years old back then. Even if you didn’t lose your memory, you wouldn’t remember much. I think I’m to blame. If I hadn’t had an accident in City W, you wouldn’t have to give birth to Rourou there and those people wouldn’t have had a chance. If I had come to the hospital earlier and guarded the child, Rourou wouldn’t have been swapped with Xiao Jinning. It’s all my fault.”
“Let’s tell Xixi about our thoughts tomorrow morning.” Tang Ya looked at Xiao Hongyi. “I’ll tell her we can protect her, but we won’t take her shares. Those shares belong to her. I know how much she has done for the Empire Group from the news. How can we snatch what she has been working so hard to defend?”
“Okay, let’s go to sleep.”
At this time, Tang Xi who was sleeping in bed began to sweat profusely. Suddenly she opened her eyes, snapped up and looked at her chest in fright.
