Come Across Cold CEO

After settling Tang Xu down, Shen Lun drove him home. Seeing her pale face, he guessed, but didn't dare to ask.

Tang Xu also did not recover from his shock. He was completely frightened out of his wits.

When she came out of the washroom, she fell and her forehead hit the corner of the wall, oozing out a little blood.

Seeing Shen Lo, he didn't say anything, nor did he answer. He just wanted to go home.

Shen didn't know what had happened, so she didn't dare to ask and had to send her home.

Along the way, the carriage was eerily quiet, only the heavy breathing of two people could be heard.

Tang Xu slumped back in his seat, trying his best to suppress his trembling legs.

When they reached home, Shen Lu suddenly stopped the car, and Tang Xu came to his senses.

Shen Lu grabbed her as she tried to get out of the car. His expression was dark, and the calmness in his eyes was different from before.

They looked at each other, one in the other. Tang Xu could barely hold back the tears in his eyes as he threw himself into Shen Lu's arms.

He didn't know why, but seeing her in such pain, all he could give her was a shoulder.

He lightly patted her back and said in a gentle voice, "Cry, cry as much as you want to."

No! She could no longer encroach on Pei's gentleness like this.

Tang Xu's crying stopped abruptly as she left Shen Lu's embrace. Reaching out her hand to touch her tears, she lifted her head to sniff her nose. She did her best to hold back her tears before saying, "I'm sorry, I'm going back first."

After saying so, Tang Xu opened the door and got out of the car, running towards the main hall.

Without explaining or even saying goodbye, Tang Xu left just like that.

Pei then breathed a sigh of relief and leaned back.

He had always felt that Tang Xu had been very strange recently, but he couldn't explain why. He had thought that Tang Xu was just imagining things, but tonight, he had confirmed that Tang Xu was indeed very strange.

To be able to disappear for so long while eating with his parents without the slightest bit of politeness at all, this was not the Tang Xu he knew.

He worriedly waited for the lights in her room downstairs before driving back.

He did not return to his villa, but went to his parents' residence instead.

The Shen family.

When Shen Shuo Nian and Li Zhiqiu returned home, his sister, Shen Xue, was doing her best to comfort her parents.

"Aiya, Mum, Dad, tell me, Sis Tang might be in some sort of emergency, or perhaps she's injured. It's not certain either, but she's a very polite girl. I've met her a few times."

"Humph, to know a person's face but not their heart. To treat one's elders with such attitude, I really don't know what will happen when one marries into the sect in the future." Li Zhiqiu was not in a good mood. Although she was not a distinguished official, no one had ever dared to dump her on the table like this. This Tang Xu was the first one.

"That's right, this girl looks pretty good, who knows …"

After Shen Shuo Nian finished speaking, he placed the teacups on the table angrily.

Shen Lo entered the room and was about to call out to him when he held out his hand to stop her. He then looked at the teacup that the servant was carrying and took it himself into the living room.

When Shen Xue saw her brother, she immediately revealed a smile and called out, "Big brother, you're back."

"Hmph, why are you back!?" I found a girlfriend like that! " Li Zhi Qiu glanced at his son, but he still had a displeased expression on his face.

Shen Xue Gui's mouth twitched, signalling for Shen Yu to hurry up and come over.

He was getting old, and now he looked like a child.

Pei Zi Yun walked over and placed two cups of tea in front of his parents, before sitting down beside his mother, sincerely apologizing, "Mom, Dad, I'm sorry. Tang Xu knows she was wrong. She fell down in the washroom and couldn't get up for a while. That's why she neglected the two of you."

"Hmph, is a fall that serious? Can't get up? You can sit on the ground for more than an hour? " Li Zhiqiu instantly exposed Shen Lu's lie.

In fact, half true, half false, Tang Xu did indeed wrestle, but it was not so serious, Shen Lu was just trying to coax her parents, so that she could excuse her.

Since he had already been deceived, he might as well continue deceiving them.

He simply handed the teacup to his mother and coaxed, "Look at you, you look like a child. Tang Xu passed out in the washroom, and then the waiter found her and brought her to the lounge. When I found her, she was still unconscious.

Shen Lo said, winking at his sister.

Shen Xue and Shen Lu have always had a good relationship.

Having received the gaze, she immediately grabbed her mother's arm and said coquettishly, "That's right, that's right. Big sister Tang Xu is a very good person, and her character isn't bad either. Big brother's eyes are so good, how could he possibly like a bad girl? Mum, don't be angry."

"That's right. If I hadn't been worried that Tang Xu's body wouldn't be able to take it and send her to the hospital, Tang Xu would've come to apologize to you now as well." Shen Lo continued in a serious direction.

"What?" "You said that Little Xu was hospitalized?" Li Zhiqiu immediately reacted, still yelling 'Little Xu'.

Hearing her say this, Pei knew it was all right, but the act had to be done.

He then said with a bitter face, "That's right, she's in the hospital now. I wanted to accompany her and send her home, but she said she was worried that you would misunderstand and wanted me to come back and explain it to you."

"Are you serious?" Li Zhiqiu looked at his son. He dared not lie to him, and with Pei's promise, Li was not angry.

After a long night, Shen did not want to go back to the villa, so he stayed at his parents' house.

When he came out from his shower, he saw Shen Xue sitting on his bed.

His little sister was good at everything except for her princess heart. As she looked at the princess' pajamas on her body, her lace fell to the ground. Luckily, she lived in a good family, if she lived in a normal family, who knows how dirty her clothes would be.

He wiped his hair, threw the towel to the side and smiled. "Thank you for today."

"Thank me for what? Thank me for lying for you? " Shen Xue closed the album in her hands and looked at her brother with a smile.

Pei Zi Yun then scratched his head, "What lie?" You're just explaining the truth for me. "

"Hmph, stop lying to me. You've got nothing to say! You say that you want to send Big Sis Tang Xu home, then you say that you want to send Big Sis Tang Xu to the hospital, that you're even lying! And you say that you're not lying?"

Pei Zi Yun was speechless, but she still tried her best to explain, "What lie? I sent her home first, and then found out that something was wrong with her, and sent her to the hospital."

"Hmm? "Really?" Shen Xue looked at Shen Lo, then got up from the bed and walked towards the door. "Since that's the case, I'll explain it to Ma so that she won't be suspicious."

"Hey, hey, hey, can we still chat happily?" Shen Lu was speechless for a moment. She held Shen Xue's hand and said, "Can't I just admit defeat?"

"En, of course. I have always been flattering the truth."

What was going on? n >?

Tang Xu furrowed his brows. His thin, lotus-like arms clenched into fists as he tried to pull them out. However, aside from the dark red imprint, there was no other effect.

Seeing her struggle in front of him, Meng Xingzhang suddenly felt great, very excited. He exerted more force, and Tang Xu was practically lifted up by him. He took advantage of the opportunity to grab her waist and push her against the wall.

Tang Xu answered straightforwardly and swiftly, as if he were doing a speed calculation question.

Qin Hailong was no fool. She shrugged and smiled, "Alright, you can go back to your work now."

Everyone knew that Meng Xing Zhang had always been a cold-blooded person, and there were very few who were close to him. Normally, he would act like a cold iceberg in front of others, but today, seeing how Meng Xing Zhang treated Tang Xu, he couldn't be deceived.

There had to be some sort of secret between them, otherwise that expensive dress of Tang Xu's couldn't even be justified.

But then again, Qin Hailong was still a businessman. From the company's perspective, if Tang Xu and Meng Xing Zhang were acquaintances, their relationship would go smoothly in the future.

Could it be … Him?

For some inexplicable reason, Qin Hailong asked him to be in charge of the investment project for 'Meng Qi' Group, while he himself randomly received a bunch of flowers. Was it related to him?
