Chapter 413

Qiao Liang took a look at Tang Xi and raised her eyebrows . “Do you think I am asking you to behave yourself . ”

Tang Xi smiled and played with Qiao Liang’s fingers . She leaned against his shoulder and looked up at him as she said, “There is only you and me here . If you weren’t speaking to me, who else were you speaking to?” Then she gave a sly smile . “Don’t worry . There is only you in my eyes . ”

Qiao Liang was unhappy because He Wanzhou wanted to chase Tang Xi; but now after hearing her words he finally cracked a smile and touched the tip of her nose . “Good . ”

“But why did you ask me to behave myself? I didn’t seduce He Wanzhou . ” Tang Xi blinked and looked at Qiao Liang . “The one who He Wanzhou likes is Tang Xi, but I’m Xiao Rou . Even Tang Xi is cold to He Wanzhou . It’s his unrequited love . You can’t ask me to behave myself . ”

“Don’t make excuses . ” Qiao Liang glanced at Tang Xi . “They were all talking about you during lunch . Look how charming you are . ”

Tang Xi shrugged and was about to speak, when her cell phone rang . She picked up the call and said, “Oh, sorry, I forgot to send you the script . I’ll send it to you right away . ”

Tang Xi hung up the call and hurriedly took out her laptop to log into her email account as she complained, “It’s all your fault . I forgot to send the script to Ning Yan . ” She quickly tapped on the keyboard and sent a file to Ning Yan’s email box .

When the two of them arrived at the hospital, the journalists had all left . They entered the ward and quickly left it again . Then they entered the room again secretly and disguised as Tang Xi and her bodyguards . After a while, Qiao Liang called a doctor into the ward… After the doctor left, Qiao Liang and Tang Xi also left the room .

In front of the elevator, they met Lawrence and Carl who came to visit Tang Xi . Qiao Liang raised his eyebrows and Tang Xi had a gleam of surprise in her eyes . She concealed her emotions and smiled at them . “Hi, Carl . Hi, Lawrence . ”

Lawrence took a look at Tang Xi and frowned when he found Tang Xi was not in the hospital gown . He asked, “Have you been discharged from the hospital?”

Tang Xi nodded . “The doctors said that I just have cerebral concussion and there is nothing seriously wrong with my body . I’ve agreed to shoot a promotion clip for a girl . The shoot will start this afternoon, so I’m going to the film set now . ”

“Do you mean the girl that’s the owner of The Queen?” Carl looked at Tang Xi . Seeing her nod in agreement, he looked surprised . “You agreed to be her company’s endorser?! I asked you to be our endorser so many times, but you refused me every single time . ”

Tang Xi smiled . “China’s fashion industry is not yet developed enough . I’m very glad to help them, especially if I can help them get onto the world stage . ” She looked at Carl sincerely as she said with a smile, “Your brand is too famous already and doesn’t need my promotion . It’s already shining brightly at the top of the fashion world . ”

“Oh, I’m still confused . ” Carl shook his head . “I can’t believe you agreed to shoot a promotion clip for her despite your health . ”

Lawrence who had remained silent suddenly smiled and said, “Now I am truly curious about the clothes and jewelry that the company has designed . I’ve received their invitation card . I think I will go to watch their show . ”

Carl hurriedly said, “I want to see the clothes that girl designed too . I wonder why you are giving her special treatment her?”

Tang Xi gave a helpless smile . “In fact, she is my acquaintance . And I also like her designs, so I think I should give her a chance . ”

“But the news these days are all about your designs being stolen . You…”

Tang Xi frowned and looked at Carl, saying with a smile, “Carl, I don’t want to talk about this . ”

Carl shrugged . Lawrence smiled and looked at Tang Xi, asking, “Why? Is it because it makes you look stupid?”

Tang Xi took a look at Lawrence and shook her head . “No, it’s just because that every time people talk about this matter, I have an impulse to kill that woman . Wow, I took her as my friend, but she took me as her enemy! I don’t know why! But next time I see her, I will slap her without any hesitation . ”

She did give Qin Xinying many chances, but she didn’t cherish them but set her up over and over again . She couldn’t let her death become so meaningless . She died in the air crash but there wasn’t any evidence left . Now that Tang Xi was murdered, she must make sure all the murderers get the punishment that they deserve!

Thinking of this, Tang Xi smiled at the two of them . “Let’s go downstairs . ”

Since Tang Xi was about to leave the hospital, Carl and Lawrence wouldn’t stay here . Qiao Liang went to handle the discharge procedures . Lawrence and Carl were chatting with Tang Xi, telling her to take care of herself . Tang Xi nodded with a smile and thanked them .

Lawrence suddenly asked Tang Xi, “Do you know a man named Lu Li?”

Tang Xi’s eyes had a gleam of surprise . How does Lawrence know about Lu Li? She shook her head . “No, who is he?”

Lawrence shook his head, answering, “I had my men investigate your matter yesterday, but I found that someone seemed to try to make the woman called Qin Xinying suffer, so I investigated that man . They called him Mr . Lu . If my guess is right, he must be Lu Li of Long Xiao Group . ”

“Long Xiao Group?” Tang Xi looked at Lawrence in surprise, asking, “Do you mean ‘that’ Long Xiao Group?”

Lawrence nodded . “I wonder why Lu Li meddled in this affair, but I’ve told my men not to let that woman be bailed out easily, because just like Lu Li, I don’t like her either . ”

Tang Xi looked at Lawrence gratefully . “I don’t know how to express my appreciation to you . Lawrence, it’s my honor to have a friend like you . ”

Qiao Liang walked over . Lawrence patted her shoulder, saying, “Take care . I’ll be going now, let’s meet at The Queen’s show field next Wednesday . ”

Tang Xi hugged Lawrence and said gently, “Lawrence, thank you . ”

After seeing Lawrence off, Qiao Liang frowned at Tang Xi and said unhappily, “He seems to be very fond of you . ”

Realizing that he got jealous again, Tang Xi gave a sly smile and looked at him naughtily . “I’m very fond of him too . I feel at ease when I’m with him . ”
