After returning home, Elder Tang sat in the study room for quite some time. In his hand was the black box that Mo Ting had given him. After hesitating for a long time, he finally placed the box in the safe. He knew, if he saw what was inside, he wouldn't want to spend another second with Tang Xuan.
It didn't take long before Tang Xuan knocked on the door, "Grandfather, can I come in?"
A complicated expression appeared on Grandfather Tang's face as he replied to the door, "Come in."
Tang Xuan pushed open the door and entered with a bright smile. She walked over to Elder Tang's side and hugged onto his arm, "Grandfather, staying at home while pregnant is too boring. Can I go out to work?"
Work...
Ever since he had seen Tang Xuan's true colors, no matter what she said or did, Elder Tang subconsciously linked it to a conspiracy.
The reason Tang Xuan mentioned going out to work, was because she wanted to use her child to return to Tang Corps and build a foundation for herself to return to the top.
"You've just gotten pregnant. If you go out to work, you will tire out my precious great-grandson."
"No, grandfather, you know my temper. The more you don't want me to do something, the more I want to do it."
Of course, Elder Tang knew her temper. It seemed, even if Elder Tang didn't hand over Tang Corps to her, he would at least return her to her previous position. But...
... she was wrong...
Elder Tang, of course, agreed to let her go out to work. Otherwise, she would definitely put on an even more spectacular show to gain sympathy. So, Elder Tang smiled and patted the back of her hand, "OK, grandfather agrees. I will give you a call in a moment to make arrangements. But, you need to promise me that you will take care of your health and not work so hard like before."
"Thank you grandfather." Tang Xuan was overjoyed. According to how much Elder Tang doted on her, it wouldn't be long before she successfully chased Xia Yuling away and took back what originally belonged to her.
"Go get some rest. Grandfather still needs to look at some documents," Elder Tang looked at Tang Xuan's smile and felt afraid and fake.
They were obviously close, yet she was like a demon that hurt the most important people around her.
"OK."
Tang Xuan had achieved her goal, so she turned to leave the study room. However, Elder Tang suddenly stopped her, "Go upstairs and call Yuling down."
"I'll go right away."
Elder Tang wanted to see Xia Yuling because he wanted to arrange a position for her. So, Tang Xuan immediately headed over to Xia Yuling's room and maintained her fragile facade, "Auntie, grandfather wants to see you in the study room."
Xia Yuling resisted the urge to slap her across the face. She looked down at the documents in her hands and replied, "I'll go right away."
Tang Xuan's expression contained a sense of pride. She was currently imagining that Xia Yuling's status would soon disappear.
However, she had no idea how much strength Xia Yuling had to use to stop herself from touching her...
Afterwards, Xia Yuling headed downstairs and entered Elder Tang's bedroom, "Father, you were looking for me?"
Grandpa Sheng gestured with his chin that Tang Xuan was eavesdropping outside the door. "Go inside."
Xia Yuling nodded her head as she sat down on the balcony with Elder Tang, completely preventing Tang Xuan from eavesdropping.
"Tang Xuan wants to return to work at Tang Corps. I've already agreed..."
"Dad …"
"Let me finish." Elder Tang looked into the distance with a look of disappointment and sorrow. "I'll leave this matter in your hands. Give her the most leisurely job and use her pregnancy as an excuse to temporarily stabilize her. I know it's impossible for her to stay put, but arrange for suitable people to monitor her every move. Keep track of her movements at all times and adapt to the situation. "
"If it wasn't for the child in her stomach..."
"Dad, I understand how you feel," Xia Yuling patted the back of Elder Tang's hand. Xia Yuling patted the old man on the back of his hand. "If she wasn't pregnant, I would have already crippled her."
After all, Tangning almost fell victim to Tang Xuan's evil scheme.
After the two finished discussing, Xia Yuling stepped out of Elder Tang's study room. Meanwhile, Tang Xuan pretended to be watching TV. As soon as she saw Xia Yuling, she immediately stood up and looked at her.
"Report to the office tomorrow," Xia Yuling said calmly in an indifferent tone.
"Sorry to trouble you, auntie." Tang Xuan lifted her head. She was certain that Xia Yuling had just fought with Elder Tang.
But, she had no idea that no one in the Tang Family would be fooled by her anymore.
Xia Yuling let out a gentle laugh, but her tone contained a hidden sense of contempt. Tang Xuan assumed that Xia Yuling was unhappy, so the corners of her lips secretly curved upwards in the darkness.
Tomorrow...
There was bound to be a good show to watch.
...
After returning to the set, Tangning threw herself back into filming. Perhaps it was because Tang Xuan's matter had been resolved, she was much more focused than before.
But, just as she was about to let go of the huge rock in her heart, another big incident happened in the entertainment industry that night.
Bei Chendong was photographed kissing a mysterious woman in front of his home.
Although the woman's identity was unknown, there were photos of the couple intimately returning to the villa as proof.
Originally, this had nothing to do with Tangning. But, after seeing this piece of news, Tangning couldn't help but furrow her brows...
Bei Chendong was lazy to the bone and only had one assistant by his side, Han Xiner. Plus, he obviously liked Han Xiner. So, why would he suddenly appear on camera hugging another woman?
Tangning had been too busy these past few days. It seemed, it had been a while since she had the time to care about the people around her. So, she immediately gave Han Xiner a phone call, "Xiner, what's going on with Bei Chendong?"
"I'm not sure either. I'm busy with PR," Han Xiner's voice was filled with disbelief.
"Xiner... you and Bei Chendong..."
"A few days ago, Fang Yu sent me an invitation from Hai Rui's PR department. From that moment on, he became very abnormal. " Han Xiner thought back carefully. She didn't think that she could stay by Bei Chendong's side for the rest of her life. She also needed to improve. So, she didn't think there was anything wrong with taking part in Hai Rui's exam.
"You obviously know that he likes you..." Tangning revealed the hidden meaning behind her words. "Don't tell me you can't tell."
"He's tried his best to be patient, but he hasn't received a response from you."
"But, I've thought about it for a long time. It wasn't easy for me to get a new lease on life. I don't want to just stay by his side. I want to be worthy of him. How could I dream of being his assistant?" Han Xiner replied in seriousness.
Actually, Tangning completely understood how Han Xiner felt. She was optimistic and cheerful and didn't like to rely on a man. Because, she felt that she had the ability to be worthy of Bei Chendong.
"Xiner, if you want to do something, then go ahead and do it. Do it with a bang so that you don't waste your life."
