Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee

Qiao Liang glanced at He Wanzhou and his aura grew aggressive. Noticing that, Tang Xi hurriedly tugged on Qiao Liang’s arm and said to He Wanzhou with a smile, “Not even close. I tried to contact Miss Tang since yesterday, but I can’t contact her, so I don’t know whether she will accept my invitation.”

Hearing Tang Xi’s words, He Wanzhou didn’t bother to quarrel with Qiao Liang but said smugly, “You certainly can’t contact her. She has gone back to China. I met her yesterday and she told me she was going back to China. Now she is probably on an airplane, so you can’t reach her.”

Hearing his words, Tang Xi tried to hold back laughter and pretended to be surprised. She looked at He Wanzhou and asked, “Really?”

He Wanzhou nodded seriously. “Sure, she told me that. It can’t be wrong.”

Tang Xi frowned and said in frustration, “It seems that I can only give up this plan.”

Ning Yan looked at Tang Xi and raised his eyebrows before asking, “Haven’t you read the news? How about the most searched hashtags in the Microblog?”

Tang Xi turned her eyes to Ning Yan. “What hashtags? News? Are they about Miss Tang?”

Ning Yan looked around at the others who all looked at her in confusion except Xiao Jing. The corner of Ning Yan’s eyes twitched and he looked helplessly at them. “You guys are already behind the times! How do you still have the cheek to stay in the entertainment circle and fashion circle?!”

Tang Xi touched her nose awkwardly when she heard Ning Yan’s ridicule. He Wanyi took out her cell phone and quickly browsed the news. Then she widened her eyes in astonishment. “Oh, my god, I can’t believe a person can be so evil! Is Miss Tang alright?”

“I heard she had got a severe concussion, but she should be fine if she gets enough rest.” Ning Yan put his cell phone aside and began to order dishes.

He Wanzhou frowned, looked at his cell phone and coldly said, “Damn it. That woman stole Xixi’s design drawings, threatened her and even assaulted her! What a shameless woman!”

When Tang Xi heard he called her “Xixi”, the corner of her eyes twitched but she echoed, “Yes, I’ve never seen such a shameless person before.”

Suddenly Ning Yan thought of something. He looked at Qiao Liang, asking, “Isn’t that woman your company’s special designer?”

Suddenly the atmosphere became a bit strange. Xiao Jing touched his nose and looked at Qiao Liang. Although he knew why Qiao Liang hired Qin Xinying, he didn’t know how to explain to them for the time being...

Qiao Liang took a look at Ning Yan and said flatly, “I don’t manage the design department. It’s managed by the design department manager and she hasn’t reported to me about this matter.”

Tang Xi was speechless when she heard Qin Xinying’s words. But you ordered the department manager to hire Qin Xinying!

At this time, Qiao Liang’s cell phone rang. The call was from the manager of the design department. He raised his eyebrows and thought he should give a salary rise to this manager.

Tang Xi also exclaimed in her heart at how timely the manager’s call was.

Qiao Liang picked up the call. “Hello?”

The manager of the design department apologized to Qiao Liang and reported to him what had happened. Then she said she would thoroughly investigate this matter and promised it wouldn’t happen again, before he hung up the call.

Qiao Liang put down his cell phone only to find that everyone was looking at him. He raised his eyebrows and explained, “The design director found someone sent an audio file to her email box. She found that it was about how Qin Xinying plotted about stealing others’ designs, so she fired her yesterday.”

He Wanzhou looked at Qiao Liang who looked so calm and he couldn’t help asking, “How can you still be so calm? That shameless woman was your company’s employee.”

Qiao Liang looked at He Wanzhou and asked expressionlessly, “How do you think I should react?” He turned up the corner of his mouth. “Our design department will deal with this trivial matter. I don’t think I need to worry about it.”

Xiao Jing who had remained silent said, “Yes, it will affect our mood to discuss about this matter.” He said to Tang Xi, “Rourou, you can go to the hospital to talk with Tang Xi after dinner. Maybe she can spare some time to shoot the promotion clip for us this afternoon or tomorrow. If she agrees, that will be great, and if she refuses, it’s also understandable. After all, she is still in the hospital. Understood?”

Tang Xi took a look at Xiao Jing who was blinking at her. She immediately got what he meant and nodded. “I know, Jing.”

He Wanzhou got excited when he heard Tang Xi would go to the hospital. “Rourou, Paris is huge, so you need a driver, but you can’t ask Qiao Liang to be your driver, because Tang Xi was his ex-girlfriend. They may rekindle their past feelings. You should be careful, shouldn’t you?”

Tang Xi almost burst into laughter when she heard He Wanzhou’s words. He Wanzhou was really funny. He was just so desperate to see “Tang Xi”.

“Brother He, I’m going there for business. Besides, it’s said her ward is closely guarded. Perhaps we can’t even get into the ward.”

He Wanzhou sighed. “Well, in that case, I’ll go to the shooting set with my sister. Perhaps I can see her over there.”

Tang Xi was speechless. “...” Man, you’re really persistent!

He Wanyi looked at her brother who was behaving like a child and she said helplessly, “Come on, the shooting set is a workplace. Don’t disturb us.”

He Wanzhou looked at his sister who didn’t take sides with him, and said unhappily, “I won’t disturb you. I can serve as your assistant!”

Ning Yan asked Tang Xi, “Have you finished the script?”

Tang Xi nodded. “Yes, I’ll send it to your email after lunch. You can check it out then.”

He Wanyi laughed. “Are you kidding me? If you serve as my assistant, then I...”

The siblings began to bicker...

The waiter soon served the dishes. Tang Xi and Qiao Liang left for the hospital after lunch. In the elevator, Qiao Liang, who was standing beside Tang Xi, looked at her reflection in the mirror and frowned before he then said, “Behave yourself.”

Tang Xi blinked and looked at Qiao Liang who remained expressionless, before asking, “Are you speaking to me?”
