Chapter 14: A Call from the Tang Family
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Tang Li and Qi Yihan did not speak again.
Qi Yihan looked ahead, his expression unreadable. He seemed to be thinking about something.
Tang Li took out her phone. She had turned it to silent mode on the way to the hospital. Now that she switched it on, she realized that there were several missed calls and messages.
She took a look at the missed calls. They were from the other three madams of the Qi family.
She had more or less guessed what these people wanted to do. She then went on to check messages.
The messages were all from the younger generation of the Qi family.
Qi Hao, “Do something for us. I guarantee that the person you like will be chosen by the best director.”
Qi Yaolong, “Fourth Uncle has been secretly dealing with Tang Corps recently. As long as you cooperate with us, my father will help the Tang Family.”
Qi Manli, the sixth daughter of Third Master, “Someone wants to bring down Bai Qingyang, but I took care of it for you. My father said if you cooperate with us, we can get him to play the male lead in the most popular movies.”
After reading the three messages, Tang Li clicked her tongue.
It seemed that the three families planned to use Bai Qingyang and the Tang family to control her.
If she was still the Host, she would be happy to cooperate with them. But now, she was no longer the Host. If these people dared to take advantage of her, she would make them regret it.
Tang Li suddenly turned to look at the man beside her.
The man sitting upright exuded a cold aura, noble and unapproachable.
Tang Li thought to herself, “The book says that although he was into the female lead, he managed to hold back from showing any affections. What will he look like if he takes the initiative to show his affection one day?”
“Qi Yihan.”
Qi Yihan turned to look at her.
Tang Li waved her phone at him and said, “Today, I received calls and messages from your brothers. All of them want me to work together with them to deal with you, so be careful.”
Qi Yihan pursed his lips and looked at her. A trace of hostility flashed across his eyes, but he asked in a low voice, “What is your motive?”
“I just wanted to remind you.” Tang Li put away her phone and said, “Don’t worry, since I don’t want to divorce you, I won’t be so stupid as to cooperate with them to deal with you.”
As Qi Yihan thought about what this woman had done in the past, a mocking look flashed across his eyes. He then withdrew his gaze and started playing with his phone. He was using his actions to tell her that he didn’t believe her words at all.
Tang Li thought to herself, “Fine, forget it if you don’t believe me.”
Back at the villa, Qi Yihan returned to his bedroom.
Tang Li looked at the back of the man who was walking up the stairs and rubbed her chin as she thought to herself, “This man won’t just put up with his brothers, will he?”
At this moment, footsteps suddenly came from outside the door. Tang Li turned around and saw Butler Zhang standing by the door, looking at her warily. He asked, “Madam, would you like to have some supper later?”
Tang Li suddenly recalled what happened last night and waved her hand. “No, I’m not hungry.”
She then returned to her bedroom.
To her surprise, she received a call from the Tang Family as soon as she came out of the shower.
Tang Li’s grandfather had four kids. His father was the third one. He was so obsessed with his wife that when she passed away, he became a monk. At that time, the Host was only eight years old.
The Host was brought up by her grandfather when she was young. However, her grandfather passed away when Tang Li was 16 years old. The shares that she and her father inherited were managed by her First Uncle and Second Uncle.
The two uncles had always treated the Host well, so the Host trusted them very much. When she got married, she didn’t take back her shares but instead, she left them in her uncles’ charge.
In a word, the Host loved and trusted her family.
Hence, after the Host married Qi Yihan, she often thought of ways to get Qi Yihan to help the Tang family.
According to the original storyline, the Tang family and the Host were all gotten rid of by Qi Yihan at the end. Although the book didn’t go into detail about how, it could be inferred that their endings were miserable.
The call was from Tang Li’s First Uncle. First Uncle obviously heard the news because he asked right after the phone was answered, “Tang Li, I heard that Qi Yihan’s father is dying. Have you been to the hospital to visit him recently?”
Instead of answering, Tang Li asked, “How does uncle know about that?”
“Everyone knows the news now,” First Uncle said. “I’m sure that the other masters of the Qi family will be making big moves in the near future. You have to plan for yourself… The best way now is to spend more time with their father. When he is happy, you will definitely get a share of the inheritance.”
When Tang Li heard this, she did not say anything. Instead, she took her phone and walked to the window. She pulled open the curtains and looked out at the sparkling swimming pool.
Qi Yihan did not go swimming tonight, and that space seemed especially lonely.
Seeing that Tang Li didn’t say anything, First Uncle continued, “Keep your distance from that pretty boy for this period of time. If the Qi family wants to deal with Qi Yihan, you will definitely get targeted as well. The relationship between the three masters isn’t as harmonious as it seems. It’s best if you don’t get involved. Otherwise, if you stand on the wrong side, it will be very disadvantageous for our Tang family.”
Tang Li’s parents and relatives died early, so she didn’t know how to properly interact with the relatives of the Host. She didn’t know if the Tang family was sincere towards the Host, so she said, “Uncle is right, so I decided to move to the hospital during this period of time to spend more time with him. Also… Uncle, don’t worry, I won’t stand on anyone’s side. They can fight however they want.”
First Uncle obviously did not expect Tang Li to say that. After a long silence, he said,
“It’s good that you’re spending time with their father. Take good care of him, so when he passes away, you’ll definitely get a share of the Qi family’s assets. When you get the money, bring it to me and your Second Uncle, and we’ll help you manage it.”
Suddenly, Tang Li thought of something. She curled her lips and said deliberately, “Uncle, I remember you and Second Uncle told me before I got married that as long as I asked, you would give back to me what belongs to me and my father. I want it now.”
…
The other end of the line fell into silence again, and it was a long silence. Only when Tang Li was about to hang up because of the long silence did First Uncle say, “You can take the assets back now, but there are many things that you don’t understand about managing assets. When you come back next time, I’ll ask Second Uncle to teach you how to manage the assets. As long as you get a hang of it, we will give the assets all back to you.”
After saying a few more things, he hung up.
Tang Li looked at the phone and fell into deep thought.
On the other end of the line.
After First Uncle hung up, his expression turned serious.
His eldest son, Tang Ze, asked, “Father, what did cousin say?”
First Uncle told him what Tang Li said.
Tang Ze frowned. “She can’t possibly know how to manage the assets.. If she took it back, she would lose it in no time! I bet someone is making her say that.”
