Chapter 511: Classmates

The next morning, when Tang Xi woke up, Qiao Liang had left the room, but he had bought breakfast for her before he left. Looking at the breakfast on the table, Tang Xi felt warm in her heart. She sent Qiao Liang a message via WeChat and went to wash up and have breakfast. After breakfast, she called her assistant, asking her to come to the hotel.

Tang Xi was already ready when her assistant arrived. The latter handed her the documents she prepared. Tang Xi took the documents, took a look at it and nodded. “We’re going to meet the presidents of the top four companies in City A. Get ready for it.”

Climbing up to where she was today from a common assistant, her assistant was very able. She nodded. “I’ve investigated He Wanzhou, the president of He Xing Group, President Qiao and President Xiao last night. You can rest assured, President.”

Tang Xi gave her an admiring look and nodded. “Good, let’s go then.”

As appointed, they headed for the Qiao’s International Group to meet them. On the way, Tang Xi asked how the company was going recently. She was seldom in the capital these days. After the Qin’s Group and the Empire Group reached a temporary truce, she almost stayed in City A every day.

Her assistant sent her emails from time to time to report the situation of the company, so now she took the chance to know about the company’s recent situation.

Assistant Wang told what she knew to Tang Xi in detail. Tang Xi listened and nodded. From her assistant’s words, she had got a rough idea of the company’s recent situation.

“You mean the Qin’s Group has contacted Tang Jieren?” Tang Xi narrowed her eyes. It seemed that some people became restless when she was not in the capital, especially Tang Jieren!

The leopard cannot change his spots! These despicable traitors!

Her assistant nodded. “And I also found out that Tang Hao frequently met with Qin Xinying.” Then she took out some photos from her bag and handed them to Tang Xi.

Tang Xi raised her eyebrows and leafed through the photos. When she looked at the people in the photos, a cold gleam flickered across her eyes. She returned the photos to her assistant and said, “Keep an eye on them. Find as much evidence as possible and give it to me. I can tolerate a useless employee but not a traitor!”

She hadn’t settled accounts with her dearest ‘relatives’, and they had already started to help the Qin Family to undermine the Empire Group!

Her assistant put away the photos and nodded. Tang Xi took a look at her and said, “I want you to do something for me.”

...

When the two of them got out of the car, Xiao Jing was already waited for them. Tang Xi was so famous that almost everyone knew her. Seeing her show up here, the employees of the Qiao’s International Group all looked at her in surprise, they started trying to guess why she was here.

Tang Xi politely greeted Xiao Jing and the latter took them upstairs.

“Is that the female president of the Empire Group?!”

“Oh, she looks prettier than when she’s on TV! And she is so young!”

“God, her aura is simply overwhelming! I feel overwhelmed by her!”

“And her assistant is beautiful too!”

“Does the Empire Group select employees by their faces?!”

“Yes, even her assistant is so beautiful!!”

Listening to their words, Tang Xi secretly smiled. As always, Tang Xi became the focus of attention again.

But they didn’t know that Tang Xi had died in that air crash created by those people. She must let them pay the price.

“President Tang, what are you thinking of?” Seeing her absent-minded, Xiao Jing poked her with his finger.

Tang Xi turned her eyes to him and her assistant looked at Xiao Jing in shock. Last time, a business partner was slapped by President just because he touched her clothes. How dared this man...

However, to his astonishment, Tang Xi smiled at Xiao Jing apologetically. “Sorry, I got distracted. What did you say, President Xiao?”

Assistant Wang looked at her in surprise. Why was President not angry at this man at all?

Assistant Wang took another look at Xiao Jing who was chatting happily with Tang Xi, frowned and murmured, “Is it because he is handsome?”

That’s possible! She knew President liked handsome men!

Assistant Wang nodded and thought she had uncovered the truth!

Yes, it must be because of this.

“What did you say, Assistant Wang?” Tang Xi narrowed her eyes and looked at her assistant. She happened to recall what she had done to that business partner too. She thought that fortunately, the Empire Group was powerful. Otherwise, she might have destroyed many cooperation opportunities.

Assistant Wang said awkwardly, Well, I am just thinking about the menu of our company’s foundation-anniversary dinner party that will be held in a month. The dishes can’t be too salty, and...”

God, what she was talking about?!

However, to her surprise, Tang Xi didn’t scold her for being absent-minded but nodded. Yes, it would be the Empire Group’s foundation anniversary in a month! She had to show up at the dinner party. It seemed that she had to ask Ning Yan for a day off.

...

As soon as Tang Xi entered the meeting room, He Wanzhou stood up and rushed up to her. He shook hands with Tang Xi and gave her the most gentlemanly smile he thought. “President Tang, we met again.”

Tang Xi took a look at him and pretended not to remember him.” Sorry, you are?”

He Wanzhou looked sadly at Tang Xi. “You... you forgot who I am?”

“Of course not.” Tang Xi smiled. “How can I forgot a man as handsome as you, President He. It’s just a joke. Please don’t mind it.”

Tang Xi turned her eyes to Qiao Liang and looked as if she didn’t see Qiao Liang for a long time. She walked over to him and reached out to him. “Long time no see.”

Qiao Liang glanced at Tang Xi who was so good at acting, and shook hands with her. “Yes, it’s been a long time.”

Xiao Yan looked at the two of them and frowned. “Do you know each other?”

“Far more than that!” He Wanzhou said. “They were...”

“We were classmates in college.” Tang Xi smiled at He Wanzhou. “Is President He also a student of the Empire University?”

Under Qiao Liang’s warning glare, He Wanzhou swallowed saliva and hurriedly smiled awkwardly. “Yes, yes, they were... classmates.”
