Strike Back, Proud Goddess!

Tang Zhenhua didn’t miss the meaningful look from Qiao Liang, but he didn’t get angry but instead appreciated this young man more because of how he treated Tang Xi. This young man in front of him was much better than him when he was younger. At least this young man wouldn’t let anyone else control his destiny but grasped it firmly in his hands.

Thinking of this, Tang Zhenhua stood up and took a deep breath as he said, “Young man, I believe you’ll cherish Xixi. I’m glad you can give me your word.”

Qiao Liang also stood up, and asked Tang Zhenhua respectfully, “May I ask how you found out Xiao Rou is actually Xixi?”

Tang Zhenhua looked at Qiao Liang and laughed. He then patted Qiao Liang’s shoulder. “Young man, relax. You don’t have to be nervous in front of me. I’m Xixi’s grandfather. You really don’t have to be so nervous.” With that, he walked forward as he said, “I know Xixi better than you. After all, she was brought up by me, so no matter how hard she tries to cover up her real identity from me, I will find out who she really is.”

Qiao Liang looked at Tang Zhenhua in surprise. He himself almost couldn’t accept that Xixi became another person. If he hadn’t doubted it before, he wouldn’t believe she was Tang Xi when she told him this. Why was Mr. Tang so sure that Xiao Rou was Tang Xi?

“I had thought it would be hard for you to accept this.” Qiao Liang walked beside Tang Zhenhua.

Tang Zhenhua took a look at Qiao Liang who was walking beside him, smiled and said, “Although I’m old, I’m not blind or deaf, so I can tell who she is. Nothing is too strange in the world. I’ve experienced too much, so this is not strange for me.”

Qiao Liang nodded. “I see, Mr. Tang.”

Tang Zhenhua nodded. “Since you’re going to marry Xixi, you can call me Grandpa. It sounds too estranged for you to call me Mr. Tang.”

Qiao Liang took a surprised look at Tang Zhenhua and nodded. “Okay… Grandpa.”

Tang Zhenhua nodded. “Xixi has gone to class. It’s still early. Would you mind if I visit your company?”

“I heard Mr….Grandpa is intending to cooperate with a daily chemical company in City A. What do you think of the Xiao’s Group?” Qiao Liang showed the way to Tang Zhenhua and then walked behind him.

Tang Zhenhua walked with his hands clasped behind his back and frowned. “Is it Xixi’s present parents’ company?”

Qiao Liang nodded. “Although her present parents wronged her and didn’t treat her well, they have cleared up the misunderstanding they had and they now get along well. I’ve investigated the company and found no problem with it, so I think you can consider investing in it.”

Tang Zhenhua grunted. “I don’t know this company. Since you’ve said this, I’ll have Tang Zhong investigate the Xiao’s Group when I go back. I’ll consider investing in it if I think it’s okay.”

As soon as they walked out of the park, they suddenly saw Qin Xinying come out of a car and hurriedly start running towards them. Qiao Liang frowned when he saw Qin Xinying. Tang Zhenhua didn’t want to see her either, but he still gave her a smile and said in a voice that only he and Qiao Liang could hear, “It seems that she is really concerned about me.”

“Grandpa, why didn’t you tell me you had come to City A? I could have picked you up from the airport.” Qin Xinying ran up to him and intimately held Tang Zhenhua’s arm as she greeted Qiao Liang.

Qiao Liang nodded to Qin Xinying politely yet expressionlessly. “You are not going to work, Miss Qin?”

Qin Xinying smiled awkwardly. “I’ve just discovered that it’s really embarrassing to be found absent from work by my boss.”

Qiao Liang took a look at Tang Zhenhua and said flatly, “Since you have an appointment, let’s talk another day, Mr. Tang.”

Tang Zhenhua nodded at Qiao Liang. “Okay, let’s talk another day, President Qiao.”

Qin Xinying listened to them and frowned. Didn’t Grandpa Tang come here to pick on Xiao Rou?

“Why did you suddenly come to City A?” Qin Xinying still held Tang Zhenhua’s hand and asked with a smile.

Tang Zhenhua retracted his arm, asked Butler Tang to open the car door for him and said, “I’m here for business. How did you know I’m here?”

Qin Xinying’s face froze, but soon she smiled. “My father went to your company to see you today, but your company’s staff said you were out on business, and I happen to…” Qin Xinying smiled, looked at the school and said, “I just happened to be coming to see a person in this school, and I spotted you in the car, so I hurriedly checked whether it was you. And it turned out it was really you.”

Tang Zhenhua took a look at Qin Xinying, gave a faint smile and looked back at the school. “Since you’re busy, I won’t hold you up.”

“It’s alright. In fact…” Seeing Tang Zhenhua was not intending to ask her why she came here, she hurriedly explained, “In fact, Xixi asked me to do this.”

Tang Zhenhua took a look at her and frowned. “What did Xixi ask you to do?”

Qin Xinying pretended to not be willing to tell him. She pursed her lips and hesitated for quite a while before she said, “A student of this school is having an affair with Qiao Liang, so Xixi asked me to question that girl. At least they can’t…”

“That’s ridiculous!” Before Qin Xinying finished, Tang Zhenhua interrupted her. Qin Xinying was startled and looked at Tang Zhenhua in surprise. Tang Zhenhua scowled at Qin Xinying and coldly said, “Xixi and Qiao Liang broke up five years ago. It’s none of her business whether he is seeing someone or not! Since they’ve broken up, they should have their own lives. No matter Xixi or Qiao Liang, they have no right to interfere in each other’s life! It has been so many years. How can they still meddle in the other party’s life?!”

Qin Xinying was surprised to hear Tang Zhenhua’s words. It had been quite a while before she said in a low voice, “But Xixi still loves Qiao Liang…”

From what she knew of Tang Zhenhua, he would help Tang Xi get anything she liked.

“Then she shall chase him herself.” Tang Zhenhua looked straight at Qin Xinying’s eyes and coldly said, “And you shall not do anything to that girl too. If Qiao Liang and Tang Xi were still together, I would definitely not let that girl off, but now they are no longer linked to one another, so just leave Qiao Liang alone!”
