Me and My Cold CEO Wife

Chapter 2112 - 2101: Mysterious Weeping

Tang Xiaoyue did not oppose marrying Zheng Tianhang, but she couldn't tolerate sharing a room with such a person; just the thought of it was quite nauseating.Now, with what Tang Tianxing said, it equates to Tang Xiaoyue gaining a different kind of freedom.

As long as she goes through the wedding process publicly and maintains this relationship outwardly, that is enough.

This is the greatest extent of freedom Tang Xiaoyue could obtain.

"But will the Zheng Family tolerate it?"

Tang Tianxing sneered, "The Zheng Family! They might even wish for it. We, these broken pots and porcelain, how can we compare to golden statues and jade artifacts."

Tang Xiaoyue understood, since it's a union of interests, eventually, for the sake of interests, they will part ways.

Thinking about how her marriage resembles a business transaction, even though she had come to terms with it, Tang Xiaoyue's heart was still deeply troubled.

"Xiaoyue, don't worry. This is the last time. From now on, you will be free, and Grandfather will never force you again."

Tang Xiaoyue's joyful smile hadn't fully blossomed when she replied uneasily, "For the Tang family, granddaughter is willing."

"Haha..."

Tang Tianxing laughed heartily, tears seeping from his cloudy old eyes, "What kind of person do you think Grandpa is? Would I ever harm Xiaodie, that girl?"

Shocked with her heart exposed, Tang Xiaoyue's face turned beet red.

It was precisely this thought that made her say those words earlier.

However, Tang Xiaoyue, struggling with embarrassment, asked, "Grandfather, how do you plan to handle Mr. Ning's situation?"

Tang Tianxing did not answer but said, "Yue'er. You are clever enough, but not ruthless enough. This is both a good and bad thing. Pay attention to the balance of it."

"Grandfather..."

"Alright. It's getting late. I need to rest."

Tang Xiaoyue knew deep down that regarding Ning Fan, her grandfather would not waver.

Unless Ning Fan is willing to work for the Tang family, otherwise after the quarter-finals, they will go their separate ways.

Whatever revenge Zheng Tianhang plans for Ning Fan, the Tang family will not intervene.

After Tang Xiaoyue left, Tang Hai, hidden in the shadows, spoke up, "Master. Ning Fan is not a simple person."

Gazing at the nearly blank sheet of paper in his hand, Tang Tianxing squinted his eyes and said, "I want to see where he is not simple, whether he truly popped out from a crack in the stone."

When Tang Xiaoyue returned from Gambling City, Tang Tianxing had secretly sent people to investigate Ning Fan and others, but didn't gain much.

When he received the information, Tang Tianxing took one look and threw it into the trash can.

The credential information of Ning Fan and Vivian appeared to be real documents on the surface, but their backgrounds were full of holes, clearly "fake documents."

Vivian's documents had no issue, but her acquaintance with Ning Fan was the biggest problem.

To this day, Tang Tianxing hasn't been able to trace the roots of Ning Fan and the others.

...

"... That's how things are. Kisses, my dear wife."

After hanging up the phone, looking at the idle Vivian, Ning Fan complained, "Would it kill you to help me explain just now!"

Ning Fan had suddenly gone to Fusang and had taken Vivian along,

such a matter could not possibly be hidden from the women at home.

Xu Xiaoqing was the first to challenge him, loudly accusing Ning Fan of many charges, then it was Xu Ruolan.

Lan Kexin, although she didn't complain, still blamed him for leaving without even a word.

She had endured this feeling many times, and was truly somewhat afraid.

Finally, even Su Meiniang came out to make her presence felt.

Ning Fan strained his lips and tongue, managing to soothe the women with difficulty.

Vivian said righteously, "You said this matter was unrelated to me."

"You remember it very clearly."

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

Through the door, Ning Fan knew it was the Tang family sisters.

"Mr. Ning, the Competition Committee notified us, the official competition starts at eight tomorrow night."

"I understand."

Seeing Tang Xiaoyue still standing there, with no intention of leaving, Ning Fan couldn't help but ask, "Do you have anything else to say?"

Tang Xiaoyue hesitated, "What do you think of Mary's matter?"

She was the one who invited her, and now she was missing, her heart was filled with guilt.

"This matter has nothing to do with you, don't worry about it."

Always obedient in front of Ning Fan, Tang Xiaoyue suddenly erupted, "How can it have nothing to do with me? I would rather be the one kidnapped."

Saying that, two lines of tears slowly rolled down her cheeks.

This scene shocked Tang Xiaodie, who had never seen her elder sister show such weakness.

"Sister, what's wrong. Don't cry!"

As she spoke, Tang Xiaodie's voice carried a hint of a sob.

Watching the two sisters sobbing, Ning Fan was stunned and said awkwardly, "Why are you crying!"

"Even if Mr. Ning doesn't say it, I know you must be blaming me for not taking care of Mary. Now Mary's fate is uncertain..."

Listening to these unsettling words, Ning Fan was somewhat at a loss, he could confirm Tang Xiaoyue was not acting, but was genuinely emotional, otherwise, he would have coaxed her out long ago.

"Stop crying. If nothing unexpected happens, Mary will be found tomorrow."

Mary went missing in the haunted house, clearly targeted, and the mastermind was among the other seven families.

In tomorrow's competition, everyone including that cultivator will be present, Ning Fan was not worried about catching them.

"Really?"

"Really."

Ning Fan nodded, then said gently, "It's getting late. You should go to rest."

"I... I'll stop disturbing Mr. Ning's rest."

When Tang Xiaoyue left, Vivian suddenly asked, "Why are they crying?"

"Who knows."

Ning Fan shrugged, having seen Tang Xiaodie crying before.

He really hadn't expected Tang Xiaoyue to lose composure in front of him.

"Sister, are you okay."

Listening to her sister's concerned words, Tang Xiaoyue replied shyly, "Nothing... nothing."

Recalling the uncontrolled scene just now made her embarrassed, wishing she could find a hole to hide in.

The next morning, when Ning Fan went out, he found Tang Xiaoyue already waiting at the door.

"Mr. Ning, my grandfather wants to invite you for morning tea."

Ning Fan shook his head, "I don't like drinking tea in the morning; I just want to have breakfast."

Watching Ning Fan's departing figure, Tang Xiaodie muttered, "Country bumpkin. Morning tea is breakfast, doesn't even know that."

"It's not that he doesn't know, it's just..."

Tang Xiaoyue smiled bitterly, swallowing the rest of her words.

"Just what?"

Tang Xiaodie added, "I don't like having morning tea with grandpa either, can't speak too awkwardly."

"Silly girl."

"How am I silly."

Tang Xiaodie rubbed her head, like a little tag-along, following behind Ning Fan.

"Mr. Ning, are you heading out?"

"Yes. Since we're in Fusang, we'll take this opportunity to go out and explore."

Ning Fan's current location is Shibuya, in a bustling district.
