Chapter 505: You Will Have Your Pitiful Moment
"Why should I trust you?" Tang Xuan didn't want to take the gamble. This man was so dangerous that he had already implicated her family from the start.
"Come, Xiao Xuan. Don't tell me that you don't know you are currently sitting in the middle of another person's scheme? The Zhong Family are currently on the brink of bankruptcy. As soon as you have control of Tang Corps, did you think the Zhong Family will treat you well? Not to mention..." the man smiled in a poised and dark manner; behind his glasses was a pair of charming eyes, "...the Tang Family also do not hold you in high esteem."
"Why are you helping me?" this was the thing that Tang Xuan was most curious about.
"Because I like to win!" After speaking, the man officially introduced himself, "My name is Lin Shaoyuan. I come from a jewelry background, my wife passed away one year ago and I have a 3-year-old son. Do your want to know more? I am new to the board of directors of Tang Corps."
Tang Xuan didn't know why, she feared this man yet couldn't help being attracted by his dangerous presence. He appeared so hard to predict.
At the same time, she also knew that Tangning had gotten to where she was because she had Mo Ting backing her.
Being with a capable man...
Wasn't that better than having anything else?
"Listen to me. You need to first free yourself from the Zhong Family. As for your child, you can temporarily keep it to use against Tangning."
Tang Xuan was dumbfounded as she stared blankly at the man in front of her. However, the man simply looked at her with a smirk.
Tang Xuan couldn't help but take a few steps back. She originally wanted to escape, but for some reason, the man had a charm to him that made it difficult for her to leave...
It was like there was a voice in her head that was telling her to agree to his idea; if she agreed, she'd have hope...
"Xiao Xuan..."
It was from this point onwards that Tang Xuan forgot what it meant to make a pact with the devil. When her ambition became driven by others, the level of evil made her completely lose herself.
...
News of the Zhong Family being investigated, quickly spread all over Beijing. The day that the news caused an uproar would be the day that the Zhong Family would be forced to announce their bankruptcy.
To save her husband and son, Mother Zhong tried everything she could. But, the investigation was strict and there was no chance of leniency. She was struck quickly and powerfully, and in the blink of an eye, she found she had spent a large chunk of the family's savings. In the end, her mind naturally wandered to Tang Corps, so she immediately went to look for Tang Xuan.
Of course, Tang Xuan agreed to meet with her, but the look in her eyes was very different from before.
"Xiao Xuan, here's your chance to prove your loyalty. We let you into our family, so it's time for you to come of use. Hurry and think of a way to get some money, it's urgent."
Tang Xuan crossed her arms and laughed, "It's not that I don't want to help you, but I really don't have the means to. You saw it yourself mom, I haven't received anything from the Tang Family."
"You still have Tang Corps' shares!"
"Mom, what are you trying to say?"
"Aren't we family?" Mother Zhong tried to play the family card. "Back when everyone abandoned you, the Zhong Family took you into our embrace. How could you be so ungrateful?"
"The Zhong Family didn't abandon me because they were afraid people would say they were heartless. I'm sure you know how many mistresses your son has on the outside," Tang Xuan sneered. "Let's stop putting on a facade. At a time like this, let's be honest with each other."
After speaking, Tang Xuan pulled out a stack of photos and handed them to Mother Zhong.
"What do you mean by this?"
"It's simple. Get your son to sign our divorce papers and we can go our separate ways. Otherwise, I'm sure you can imagine what would happen if I revealed that your son was cheating on me while I was pregnant," Tang Xuan said coldly.
She had wanted to speak to Mother Zhong like this a long time ago and to throw the photos in her face. And now, she finally got to do it. So her heart was filled with satisfaction.
Mother Zhong did not look impressed; she had never expected Tang Xuan to do this...
Tang Xuan had actually left herself a way out and used it when the Zhong Family were at their worst.
"Tang Xuan, you've well and truly shocked me..." Mother Zhong laughed as she held onto the photos. "Great, this is great. You want to get a divorce? I'll grant your wish, you shameless wench."
After speaking, Mother Zhong was about to stand up, but Tang Xuan was a step ahead, "I once suffered so much under your hands. Now, it's time to return it to you."
"I wish the Zhong Family an early destruction!"
"Don't think that just because you shook us off, you would be able to win against Tangning. To be honest, you and Tangning are like the difference between dirt and clouds. Tangning got to where she is today because her methods are a million times better than yours. You just wait and see; you will have your pitiful moment."
Tang Xuan scoffed at Mother Zhong before she turned and left the cafe. She then boarded the car prepared by Lin Shaoyuan.
Of course, Mother Zhong couldn't bear the humiliation. She had been alive for so long, yet she ended up being insulted by someone as cheap as Tang Xuan.
However, she was still determined to save her husband and son. Just as she was about to leave the cafe, a man holding a briefcase suddenly stepped in front of her, "Hello, Mrs Zhong."
"I don't think I know you."
"But I know you and I can help you," the young man said with a smile as he sat down. "Let's have a chat. Perhaps I could give you some good news."
"There are no good people in this world."
"If you leave now, then you may lose your only chance to save your husband and son," the man was calm as he held her back with his words.
Mother Zhong was a little surprised, but eventually sat back down.
"I'll buy the shares that you hold for Zhong Corps in exchange for your husband and son's freedom. You need to know that not everyone that has the money will have the ability to save your husband and son."
Mother Zhong lowered her head in deep thought, before she reconfirmed, "All I have to do is sell my shares to you?"
"Of course," the young man smiled, "Everything will be written in a contract. You don't need to worry."
"OK then, I'll do it. When will the issue be resolved?"
"You will definitely see your husband and son within 3 days," the man packed away his documents and turned to leave. But, Mother Zhong suddenly held him back.
"I have one last question: how do you know so much about my family?"
"I'll be honest with you Mrs Zhong. Did you offend someone without knowing?" the man turned around and smiled.
Mother Zhong was dumbfounded because she had no idea.
"It appears you need a reminder...did you suggest for someone to remove someone else's uterus?"
Hearing this, Mother Zhong's eyes grew big.
"So, everything that Tang Xuan did..."
"President Mo knows about it in detail. I'm sure you won't be telling this to Tang Xuan, will you?"
