The luxurious Tang Family home was still brightly lit even in the middle of the night.
Elder Tang's health had stabilized and he was discharged from the hospital. The entire family went to the hospital to welcome him so he could be happy to see him.
"Grandfather, it's getting late. Let me help you back to your room to get some rest," Tang Xuan and her husband said as they supported Elder Tang.
"Grandfather..."
"Jingxuan, grandfather has just recovered. Don't use your nonsense to piss me off. Be sensible," Tang Xuan interrupted. On the surface, it seemed like she was being considerate of Elder Tang's health. But, in reality, she was trying to stop Tang Jingxuan from talking about Tangning.
However, Elder Tang wasn't so easily fooled. He simply stood up straight and said, "Jingxuan, speak. As long as grandfather can satisfy you."
Tang Jingxuan glanced at Tang Xuan. Hai Rui had not come out to refute the rumors yet, so he wasn't sure what the truth was. He decided to wait for the results to be released before telling Elder Tang.
"It's OK, grandfather."
"What do you mean?" Mrs. Tang rushed down the stairs and said to Grandpa Tang, "Dad, can you give me some time? I want to have a word with you. "
"Yuling, what is it that can't be discussed tomorrow?" Elder Tang asked in a strict tone.
"Dad, if it was for myself, I wouldn't mind. But, it's related to Tangning. I can't hold it in until tomorrow morning," Mother Tang said as she approached Elder Tang. Mrs. Tang walked in front of Elder Tang. "I went to the hospital but was stopped by Big Missy's people. I couldn't see you, so I waited at home."
"In that case, speak."
Elder Tang looked at Tang Xuan from the corner of his eyes.
"Xiao Ning fell and got injured while filming. Even now, we don't know if she's still alive."
"What did you say?" Elder Tang suddenly became agitated.
"Grandfather, calm down..." Tang Xuan immediately said. "Grandfather, things aren't as serious as auntie says. I've already asked someone to investigate. Tangning only suffered minor injuries and is fine."
"Someone? You've always looked down on people from the entertainment industry. How did you manage to find out so quickly? " Mother Tang immediately asked. "Plus, I've already asked someone to look into it and it's someone from Hai Rui. But, up until now, Hai Rui hasn't released a statement and they've kept the news under wraps. How did you find out?"
"Auntie, just because you can't do it, doesn't mean I can't do it."
"But, when did you become so concerned about Tangning?" Mother Tang asked.
"Yuling, the fact that Tangning is fine is already a blessing in disguise. When she returns, go see her. Don't argue at home." "Plus, I understand what you're trying to say. Since Tangning is fine, let's talk about it later."
After speaking, Elder Tang turned around to leave. However, Mother Tang yelled at him from behind, "Dad, if you kill Xiao Ning because you want to protect Tang Xuan, then I no longer have any reason to be kind to the Tang Family. I may not be able to find any evidence that caused Xiao Ning's fall, but Hai Rui will definitely be able to. When that time comes, I hope you can protect her. "
This time, it was Mrs. Tang's turn.
Tang Xuan looked at Elder Tang impatiently and said, "Grandfather, go back to your room and get some rest."
Elder Tang did not say a word as he returned to his room with the help of his walking stick.
After the couple returned to their own room, Tang Jingxuan finally snuck into Elder Tang's bedroom to chat with him.
"My precious grandson... are you disappointed in grandfather?" Elder Tang let out a long sigh. "In the past, grandfather always represented fairness and justice. But now, I've been avoiding and giving in. Tell me the truth, how is your sister three doing?"
"She should be fine," Tang Jingxuan replied.
"Jingxuan, grandfather knows you like to sing and that you've formed a band. But, I want to tell you, it's not that I'm against you entering the entertainment industry, it's just that you've seen the current situation. Look at the state your sister is in."
"Grandfather really hopes that your sister three will come back and take over my responsibilities. That way, I can play the drums with you. But, Tangning... Haiz, who else can I rely on? "
After hearing Elder Tang's words, Tang Jingxuan felt a sense of responsibility for the first time.
"Grandfather, I'm not cut out for business."
"Neither is your sister. But, she still wants to fight for fame and fortune."
"Grandfather is waiting, waiting for your sister three to change her mind. But..." Elder Tang shook his head. Deep down, he knew why Tangning didn't want to return home.
Because of Tang Xuan's scheming...
"From now on, keep an eye on your sister. Also, try to find out more about your sister three. I may be old, but if I'm stupid once, I won't be stupid again."
"Yes, grandfather!"
At this time, there was no one else in the Tang Family Home corridor. Tang Xuan was holding onto her phone as she spoke on the phone.
"President Tang, everything has been done. The producer of 'Hidden Expert' has already replaced Tangning. Right now, everyone is saying that Tangning is the bane of the entertainment industry and everyone is avoiding her."
"That's not enough. We still need to spread even more sinister news so she can be completely ruined."
"OK."
The person on the other side of the phone replied before hanging up.
Tang Xuan put down her phone and was about to return to her room when Tang Jingxuan suddenly stretched out his hand to stop her, "I heard everything you said on the phone. Don't you think you've gone overboard?"
"Jingxuan, I think you've misunderstood..."
"Is there any point in quibbling in front of me? Sister! " Tang Jingxuan asked as he crossed his arms. "Tang Xuan, don't you think everyone in the family has been tolerating you? I'm sure you know how Auntie has treated us all these years. Even when you forced Tangning out of the family, she has never once said a word of heartache. Yet, here you are, taking an inch and wanting a mile... "
"I don't understand what you're saying. Move aside, I need to rest. You don't need to manage the family business, you don't understand."
Tang Xuan pushed Tang Jingxuan away.
Tang Jingxuan took a deep breath and did not say another word.
He had finally understood one thing: those that pretended to be asleep, could never be woken up.
There were times when he didn't want his family to fight. But, there were times when he couldn't help but wish that Tangning could return to the Tang Family and kick Tang Xuan out. Wouldn't that be great?
Of course, if Tang Xuan continued to act like this, that day wouldn't be too far away.
In reality, the person trembling in fear was Mother Tang. Over the years, the only reason she had been able to tolerate Tangning was because Elder Tang had always been fair.
But, he was now leaning more and more towards Tang Xuan. Did this mean, even if Tangning was killed by Tang Xuan one day, he wouldn't object?
There was no way she would allow that to happen.
However, Tangning had no idea that the Tang Family had been thrown into war again and again because of her.
In fact, she had no idea that she had been replaced!
