Tang Jiu was confused. "What are you guys talking about? Dad, you have to stop this. Tang Yifei is too much. Look at how he beat up Brother Tang Long! No matter what, he's still the oldest brother in our generation. Plus, Fourth Uncle died early … "
"Tang Jiu, if Tang Long is asking for a beating, then there's nothing we can do." Xu Yun said calmly, "Zhou Yu beats Huang Gai. One is willing to be beaten and the other is willing to be beaten. I'm not sure if Tang Yifei is willing to be beaten, but I'm sure that Tang Long is willing to be beaten."
"What do you mean?" Tang Jiu was stunned. "Willing to be beaten? Is he an idiot? "
Tang Zhengtian sighed. He didn't expect this matter to be more complicated than he thought. It was all thanks to this young man that Tang Jiu found. Tang Zhengtian knew that he couldn't predict Xu Yun's thoughts anymore. His consideration of things was much more meticulous than his own. He only had doubts about some things, but Xu Yun was able to help him smooth things out and find loopholes.
"Jiu 'er, do you smell something on Tang Long?" Tang Zhengtian didn't want his daughter to be kept in the dark, so he pointed it out.
Tang Jiu didn't pay much attention to this, but after her father asked, she did feel that there was a faint smell. It was familiar, but she couldn't put her finger on it.
"What smell?" Tang Jiu couldn't figure it out.
Xu Yun smiled. "Hydrogen peroxide."
Tang Jiu suddenly realized that it was indeed the smell of hydrogen peroxide. Wait … why did Tang Long have the smell of hydrogen peroxide?!
The faint smell of hydrogen peroxide on Tang Long's body wasn't something that could be found anywhere. It was a smell that could only be found in hospitals. Obviously, Tang Long had been to the hospital. Xu Yun knew that there was no rule in this world that forbade people from going to the hospital. However, since his eyes were swollen, there was no reason not to treat it at the hospital, right?
However, it was obvious that Tang Long didn't treat the injury at all. Did he purposely not treat it, or did he really not have the time to treat it? Or did he not dare to stay in the hospital for too long for fear of being seen? These were all suspicious points.
Xu Yun thought that Gu Ning didn't want to stay in the hospital for too long because he was worried that other people would find out about his injury. Also, Gu Ning's injury had to be treated by Tang Zhengtian and the others, so he couldn't deal with it.
However, Tang Jiu still could not understand such a deep matter. She was only puzzled. "Why did Brother Tang Long go to the hospital? I didn't see him treat his injuries … "
"Jiu 'er, people's hearts are not what they used to be. Now, not only do we treat what we hear as false, some things may not be true even if we see them with our own eyes. " Tang Zhengtian said, "You should learn from Xu Yun in the future. I didn't say this yesterday, but in the future, you have to support Xu Yun unconditionally no matter what he does. He has his reasons, and even if I tell you, you might not understand them, so don't ask."
Tang Jiu rolled his eyes. "Dad, are you serious? Didn't you use to judge people very carefully? Why are you so confident in Xu Yun? Aren't you afraid that he'll harm your precious daughter? What if he kidnaps you? "
Tang Zhengtian smiled bitterly. "If he really wanted to kidnap you, he wouldn't have come back with you. Hehehe, I'm afraid that you'll be the one to lose …"
"Dad! Am I not your biological daughter? How can you lower your own prestige to boost other people's morale? " Tang Jiu said unhappily. He made it sound like Xu Yun wouldn't want him even if he gave him to him for free. He couldn't be that bad, right? Not to mention anything else, at the very least, if he were to take it out, there would be tens of thousands of youngsters who would go crazy over it.
Xu Yun touched his chin and said seriously, "I'll have to think about it."
Tang Jiu waved his hand. "Stop! Alright, let's end this topic here! Tell me, why do you suspect Tang Long? "
"The reason is simple. What do you think of Tang Long and Tang Yifei's relationship?" Xu Yun: "Let me tell you my opinion first. When I first saw him yesterday, he and Tang Yifei were in cahoots. What do you think?"
"Of course they're close, but … but everyone says that Brother Tang Long is Second Brother's dog … Forget it, I won't say it. It's too unpleasant." Tang Jiu said, "Anyway, Brother Tang Long was very obedient to Second Brother. He basically listened to whatever Second Brother said. Of course, there's nothing to say about this kind of relationship."
Xu Yun nodded, indicating that Tang Jiu's analysis was very correct. "Then my guess is even more correct. Since they're so close, do you think Tang Yifei would tell Tang Long any plan he has? If you were Tang Yifei, would you tell him? "
Tang Jiu thought for a moment and said, "Yes."
"Then what are you still thinking about?" Xu Yun said, "If this matter was planned by Tang Yifei, then Tang Long definitely knows about it. And look at Tang Long's performance today. He clearly doesn't know anything about this matter. How is that possible …"
As Xu Yun spoke, he suddenly closed his mouth and said, "I'll tell you later."
As soon as he finished speaking, Aunty Xue walked in and said to Tang Zhengtian, "I sent Tang Long away. He didn't seem to be in a good mood. It seems that what Tang Yifei did was quite a blow to him. This child's father died early. The Tang family can't let him down."
Tang Zhengtian nodded and smiled. "Yes, Aunty Xue, I think so too. Tang Long has been dedicated to the Tang family for so many years. Although he wasn't personally in charge of anything, Tang Zhenfeng and his father really can't be without him. He's the Tang family's right-hand man when it comes to investment and financial management."
"Then why didn't you ask him to stay for lunch?" Aunty Xue said it casually, but it was obvious that she was blaming Tang Zhengtian. However, Tang Zhengtian was the head of the family. No matter how hard she worked, she was still a servant. Of course, she didn't dare to directly blame him. She could only complain.
"It's my fault." Tang Zhengtian chuckled. Then, he said to Xu Yun, "What do you want to eat? Or what Guoguo wants to eat? Just tell Aunty Xue."
Xu Yun thought for a moment. Then, he said to Tang Zhengtian, "How about this, Uncle Tang? I don't have much of an appetite today. I don't want to eat at home. Usually, if you eat out, where do you go? Can you take me out to eat? "
Tang Zhengtian froze. Then, he nodded. "Yes, of course."
"What's there to eat outside? There's everything at home," Tang Jiu muttered to herself. She still liked the food at home. Moreover, Aunty Xue's cooking was indeed very good. It wasn't worse than the cooking of those high-end chefs.
Tang Zhengtian looked at his daughter gently. "Did you forget what Dad just told you? You didn't inherit this from me. "
Tang Jiu was speechless. Could it be that Xu Yun had a reason for going out to eat? He was too hard to please. She would rather die than marry such a man. If she really did marry him, she would lose her personal freedom in the future.
"Let's go. Jiu 'er, go upstairs and invite Chou Yeon and Guoguo down," Tang Zhengtian said as he stood up.
Tang Jiu was also very nimble. She walked directly to the stairs and shouted, "Guoguo, let's go. Sister will bring you to eat a big meal!"
Guoguo immediately rushed down excitedly. She was very interested in eating. She was different from those children who couldn't eat no matter what. She ate when she should and didn't eat when she shouldn't. Guoguo was also very principled.
In Guoguo's words, if she was picky or didn't eat on time when she was young, it would affect her growth. If she grew up and didn't have a good figure, it would definitely be because she didn't eat properly. She didn't want to be laughed at when she grew up. Therefore, when it came to eating, she was very serious. Fruits such as papaya were Guoguo's favorite.
Aunty Xue never went out to eat, so Tang Zhengtian and Tang Jiu didn't call her. They all left, which saved Aunty Xue the trouble of cooking. Aunty Xue was also happy to leave.
Because of Tang Zhengtian's health, he didn't go out too far. Therefore, the driver was arranged to go somewhere else. Xu Yun took on the role of a temporary driver. The few of them got into a Ford E350 and went out comfortably.
They soon arrived at a rather impressive five-star hotel. Obviously, the people here recognized the Tang family's car. As soon as the car stopped, someone came to open the door. He was very polite and greeted Mr. Tang. When he saw Tang Jiu, he also greeted Miss Jiu.
Guoguo couldn't help but praise Tang Jiu. "Miss Jiu, you're so impressive."
Tang Jiu glared at her. "Guoguo, if you dare to laugh at your Little Sister Jiu again, be careful or I'll leave you here as collateral after dinner and make you wash the dishes to pay the bill."
"I'm a child laborer." Guoguo didn't care. "None of them would dare to take me."
Under the guidance of the waiter, Xu Yun came to the luxurious room that the Tang family booked all year round. The huge dining table wasn't crowded even if 15 people sat down. After five people sat down, there was quite a lot of space.
However, the rich seemed to like this style. With each person having a waiter behind them, the service was definitely at the level of a president.
"En, I won't order anything. Let the chef decide." Tang Zhengtian said to the waiter. He then pointed at Xu Yun and said, "This is a very important guest of mine. The food must be exquisite."
"Yes! Mr. Tang! "
Xu Yun hurriedly said, "No, no, no. Don't make it too complicated. There are only five of us. Nowadays, we all advocate frugality. Just make enough to eat. Extravagance and waste are immoral things that corrupt officials do. We ordinary people are simple."
Seeing Xu Yun being so low-key, the waiter's impression of him improved greatly. "Yes, sir, you're absolutely right!"
"Hehehe, good, good, good. Then we'll do as Xu Yun says!" Tang Zhengtian waved his hand. "Go."
Xu Yun smiled. He didn't come here to eat. He naturally had his reasons for coming out to eat. Who knows, he might be able to find some clues in the end.
Tang Jiu was really speechless towards Xu Yun. Since they came out to eat, why did he say it was simple? It was better to eat comfortably at home.
Soon, the hotel's waiter made 20 exquisite dishes according to the standard for five people. The portions were enough for everyone. This showed that the hotel valued the Tang family. Tang Zhengtian's words were taken seriously.
Soon, the waiter gave Tang Zhengtian a bowl of bird's nest. "Mr. Tang, this is for you."
