West Mountain Courtyard, Maple Leaf Study.
The assistant handed the phone to Elder Tang, "Chairman, the CEO of Hai Rui is calling. Do you think..."
"Give it to me." Elder Tang put down the perfume sample, took the phone from his assistant and gestured for him to leave.
The assistant respectfully turned around and left. Afterwards, Elder Tang placed the phone by his ear and said in a deep voice, "Hello."
"Hello, Elder Tang," Mo Ting's voice was deep and dangerous.
"Are you the man that is dating my granddaughter?" Elder Tang asked straightforwardly.
"I am Mo Ting." Mo Ting greeted Elder Tang in a manner that was neither servile nor overbearing. In terms of presence, they were on par. Although Elder Tang was older and wiser, Mo Ting was calm and unfathomable.
"Hmph, the entertainment industry is such a foul place, where can you find true love?"
Mo Ting let out a gentle laugh, completely ignoring Elder Tang's contempt. He simply asked, "I sent someone to deliver a gift to your home. I wonder if Elder Tang received it?"
"What gift?"
"In regards to our marriage, I sent a gift to the Royal Residence. But after that, a piece of news broke out, saying that I was going to marry Miss Chi … "
"What do you mean by that?" Elder Tang asked coldly.
"The Chi Family and Tang Family should be on good terms. Plus, I once had a misunderstanding with Miss Chi. If this has caused you to misunderstand me, I can clarify it. There's no need to spread false rumors to hurt Tangning." Mo Ting's voice was even colder than Elder Tang's. "If you can ignore Tangning's existence, then pretend she doesn't exist. Don't stop me from treating her well."
Mo Ting's words were very artistic.
First, he said that a gift had been delivered and a bad scandal had broken out. Then, he hinted that the Chi Family and the Tang Family were sharing resources. This matter was definitely related to the Tang Family.
"Kid, don't you know how to respect the elderly and cherish the young?" Elder Tang had never been questioned like this before.
"If I've offended you in any way, please forgive me. If you really don't want to acknowledge Tangning as your granddaughter, please hand her over to me in one piece." After speaking, Mo Ting hung up the phone.
Elder Tang froze for a moment before calling his assistant over, "Immediately call the Tang Family home and ask if Hai Rui has sent anything over. While you're at it, gather the latest entertainment news for Tangning. Hurry!"
10 minutes later, the assistant returned to the study room and said to the old man, "The housekeeper said a box was sent over, but it was intercepted by the Big Miss. Also, this is the latest news about Miss Tangning."
Elder Tang reached out and picked up the newspaper. Looking at the comments the entertainment industry had on his granddaughter, he was so angry that he slammed his hand on the table, "How dare these people criticize my, Tang Zhen's granddaughter? Moreover, my granddaughter can do anything. Isn't she better than that vase from the Chi Family? "
"Chairman, calm down!"
Elder Tang took a deep breath and finally calmed himself down, "Based on the way that Mo brat spoke, it seems like the Tang Family was behind the rumors of his marriage with the woman from the Chi Family."
"Chairman, could the other party have made a mistake?"
Grandfather Tang shook his head, "That kid is an overlord. How could he make a mistake? Since he said it was the Tang Family, then he must have done an in-depth investigation. Plus, can't you tell that he's here to complain? He's hinting that this isn't the first time the Tang Family has treated Tangning in this way. "
"The Big Miss is indeed suspicious," the assistant replied.
"Tang Xuan has no tolerance for others. How can I trust her with the Tang Family?"
"That's right. Whether it's in terms of ability or character, Miss Tangning is above all of them," the assistant added.
"It's time to clean up the family." After speaking, Elder Tang stood up and picked up his walking stick, "Come, accompany me to the Tang Family home."
"Chairman … now?"
"Not now. They still haven't realized the seriousness of the matter." After speaking, Elder Tang left the West Mountain Villa with the help of his assistant and headed straight for the Tang Family home.
…
After hanging up the phone, Mo Ting returned to the bedroom from the bathroom. Seeing Tangning sleeping peacefully in bed, he walked over to her side and leaned over to place a kiss on her forehead.
"What's wrong?" Tangning asked in a half-asleep state.
Mo Ting gently stroked her cheek and comforted her, "It's nothing. I simply wanted to tell you that I will always be by your side."
Tangning revealed a comforting smile as she fell asleep.
Tomorrow was the press release for 'Hidden Expert'. Perfect, it was a good opportunity to clarify everything …
Of course, he did not plan to reveal his marriage statement. He still wanted to know if the Tang Family and the woman with the surname Chi had any follow-up plans. He was going to clear Tangning's path to becoming the Empress in one fell swoop.
…
Late at night, the lights in the Tang Family home's living room were suddenly turned on. Afterwards, everyone in the Tang Family was woken up by Elder Tang.
As everyone in the Tang Family was busy, they didn't often get to gather together. So, the only people that were woken up were Tang Xuan and her husband, as well as Father Tang and Tangning's mother, the current Madam Tang.
"Father, it's already so late. Did you wake everyone up for something?" Father Tang asked as he sat on the sofa.
Elder Sheng sat in the middle of the living room, looking extremely dignified. His sharp eyes glanced in Tang Xuan's direction, "Xuan Er, have you forgotten that you have something to pass to me?"
Tang Xuan froze for a moment before she suddenly woke up, "Grandfather …"
"Do you think that I'm old and dim-sighted, so I can't control you?" Elder Tang tapped his walking stick on the ground. "Are you going to take it out yourself, or do you want me to call Hai Rui to verify it?"
Tang Xuan's expression did not look good. She had no choice but to retrieve a box from her bedroom and place it in front of Elder Tang.
"Can you explain to me what this is?" Elder Tang asked despite knowing the answer.
"This is a gift from the CEO of Hai Rui. It seems, he wants to tell us that he and Tangning have plans to get married …"
"In that case, can you tell me what this is?" Elder Tang pulled out a newspaper from his pocket and threw it in front of Tang Xuan. "Don't tell me this has nothing to do with you."
Tang Xuan's body trembled, but she still picked up the newspaper from the floor and opened it.
"Grandfather … what's wrong with Xiao Xuan?" Tang Xuan's husband was confused. Why were the grandfather and granddaughter talking in riddles?
Elder Tang stood up with a fierce aura, "This isn't the first time you've hurt Tangning like this. Do you admit to it?"
"Grandfather … how can you be so sure that I'm the one that hurt Tangning?"
"Do you still feel wronged?" Elder Tang's voice turned cold. "I've already spoken to your assistant. You were the one that spread the news. You couldn't bear to see Tangning marry a husband with a powerful background, so you tried everything you could to separate them. So, you spread this false rumor and made my granddaughter look down on you."
"The more you act like this, the more impossible it is for the Tang Family's perfume to land in your hands."
