Tang Xi knew that things must be more serious than she thought when she heard that the anti-terrorism forces were involved in this. Although she hadn't been in contact with anti-terrorism forces, Qiao Liang was a member of the anti-terrorism forces, so she tried her best to learn about their circle. If an anti-terrorism force joined hands with a gang to fight against an organization, it meant that the government really wanted to eradicate this gang.
Thinking that Qiao Liang might be the target of the anti-terrorism forces, Tang Xi was worried. She moved closer to Qiao Liang and asked, "Is it serious?"
"Two hundred million yuan worth of arms. Several researchers and designers have been shot and sent to the hospital, two have been arrested, and some are missing." Qiao Liang took a look at Tang Xi. "We have a research institute in the forest on the border of Mexico, and it was caught."
Tang Xi's heart sank. She pursed her lips and said, "In this case, don't worry about the acquisition of the Qin's Group. I'll handle it myself. If I can't handle it, I'll put it aside for the time being. Anyway, I can tolerate Qin Xinying for so long, so I can tolerate others."
Qiao Liang took a look at Tang Xi and raised his eyebrows with a smile. "You're so considerate."
Tang Xi shrugged. Qiao Liang put his arm around Tang Xi's shoulder and smiled. "It's okay. We'll just lose a few researchers at most. We can save the other commissioners. It's just that we've always minded our own business with the Mexican gangs, but they set us up this time. I really can't swallow this."
It was not that they had never sunk arms worth hundreds of millions into the sea before, but they would always recover the losses from the people who had hurt them. Long Xiao had never suffered losses.
Besides, as long as Long Xiao Group was there, they wouldn't be afraid that Long Xiao Group would suffer losses. No matter how much the American government feared them, they wouldn't dare to openly go against Long Xiao Group.
After all, Long Xiao Group was now on good terms with many countries.
So even if they didn't provide weapons to the American side, they still set up their headquarters in Country M. They wanted to make the American side jealous, but they couldn't do anything to them.
"Will this incident affect the relationship between Sister Wen Ning and Lu Li?" Tang Xi frowned. "Last time …"
Qiao Liang couldn't help smiling when he saw that she was still worried about others. "Are you still worried about others?"
Tang Xi paused and then smiled. "After all, Sister Wen Ning has helped us a lot, and I think it's not easy for Lu Li and Sister Wen Ning."
Qiao Liang lay down with Tang Xi in his arms. "Okay, let's not talk about them anymore. Go to bed early. Tomorrow morning, after Little Five finds out who the person behind the Qin's Consortium is, we'll decide whether to buy the Qin's Group or not."
"Yes." Tang Xi nodded and lay in Qiao Liang's arms to sleep. After quite a while, Tang Xi who was sleepy didn't fall asleep. She called Qiao Liang and the latter opened his eyes and looked at her, asking, "What's up?"
"Do you find it magical?" Tang Xi looked up at Qiao Liang. "After I died, I came back to life as Xiao Rou and helped Grandpa find his daughter. Do you think it's fate?"
Qiao Liang was startled. Fate used her death to …
Qiao Liang didn't want to talk about fate with that. He hugged Tang Xi tightly. "If it's like this, I'd rather not be fated."
Tang Xi paused, fell silent for a moment, put her arms around Qiao Liang's waist and said in a low voice, "But if I didn't become Xiao Rou, I would never know how much you have done for me, nor would I know how much you love me, nor would I know that there were so many misunderstandings between us, and we might never be able to be together again in this life. In fact …" Tang Xi paused and then continued, "I'm very grateful to have such a predestined fate."
Qiao Liang's heart ached and he hugged Tang Xi tighter. "I don't want to experience it again."
She would never know what he was like the moment he heard that her plane had crashed. He couldn't even walk steadily, and when he finally stood up, his whole body went limp again. It took him a whole two hours to force himself to stand up. Even if he was a corpse, he had to find her. The moment he found her finger, he really wanted to kill himself.
He still wasn't sure what he would be like now if she hadn't come back to life as Xiao Rou and come back to him … Wouldn't he eat or drink every day? Or would he force himself to eat and drink and live a muddle-headed life?
He dared not imagine these things.
Hearing Qiao Liang's words, Tang Xi put her arms around Qiao Liang's waist and nodded with a smile. "Okay, I won't let you experience losing me again."
I don't want to lose you again.
No one would ever know what it felt like to lose a loved one. It was as if someone had pulled her heart out of her body. It was so painful that she couldn't breathe.
"Don't let your imagination run wild. This is the best arrangement." Qiao Liang kissed Tang Xi on the forehead. She was by his side now and he could stay by her side. This was the best arrangement.
Tang Xi closed her eyes with a smile. Yes, this was the best arrangement.
She was Grandpa's granddaughter, Mom's niece, Mom's daughter, and Qiao Liang's lover.
Unknowingly, Tang Xi had fallen asleep. The smile on her face suddenly turned into a frown. She saw a pair of hands in white rubber gloves cut open her chest and took out her heart. Her beating heart suddenly stopped and was soaked in blue liquid …
"No!" Tang Xi woke up with a start. She immediately turned over and sat up with cold sweat on her forehead …
Qiao Liang was awakened by Tang Xi. He sat up only to see Tang Xi's pale face with seawater on her face. He reached out to hold her in his arms and gently coaxed her, "Did you have a nightmare?"
Tang Xi nodded and looked at Qiao Liang. "I dreamed that someone took away my heart."
"Silly, that's just a dream. Dreams are always the opposite of reality." Qiao Liang said and kissed her gently on the forehead. He got up to pour a glass of warm water for Tang Xi and helped her drink it. "Can you still sleep?"
Tang Xi smiled. "It's just a nightmare. I'm fine."
Tang Xi lay down again with a smile on her face, but her heart began to panic. She wanted to open the system to ask 008, only to find that she couldn't start the system at all …
Qiao Liang hugged Tang Xi, gently patted her back and coaxed her to sleep. "Don't let your imagination run wild."
