Tang You Ran's guess was correct. The news about Tang Mubai having a daughter was quickly spread throughout River City.
Qiao Qing Shan was stunned when he heard this news. He looked at the secretary in disbelief. "Is this news reliable?"
"It's reliable. It came from Guan Jie." "Yes," answered the secretary. "I'll report this right away when I get the news. Director Qiao, if Tang Mubai really does have a daughter, then our plan …"
"Impossible!" How could Tang Mubai have a daughter? " Qiao Qing Shan shook his head.
"But the news spread very smoothly. It's said that the girl that suddenly appeared was wearing Tang Mubai's heirloom jade pendant. She looks very similar to Tang Mubai."
"With only a jade pendant and looks? "Hahaha!" Qiao Qing Shan sneered. "The law wants evidence, not something that can't be revealed."
"Yes, I know this as well. But Guan Jie has always been loyal to Tang Mubai. For him to suddenly reveal this, I don't think it'll be that simple."
"You're right, I'm afraid it's not that simple." Qiao Qing Shan pondered for a moment. Just as he was about to speak, the office door was suddenly pushed open. Qiao Xiaomeng hurriedly barged in.
Seeing Qiao Xiaomeng, Teng Qingshan was very surprised. "Why are you back?"
"Can I not come back?" Qiao Xiaomeng looked at the secretary. I have something to say to my dad, so you can leave first. "
The secretary nodded and immediately left.
Waiting for the secretary's footsteps, Qiao Xiaomeng said impatiently, "Dad, what's going on? How could Tang Mubai still have a daughter alive? "
"I don't know either. I just got the news."
"Hurry up and investigate!" Qiao Xiaomeng was even more anxious than Qiao Qing Shan. If Tang Mubai really did have a daughter who was still alive, then Qiao Qing Shan's act of wanting to get his hands on the Seven Stars was just empty talk. It wasn't just a few hundred million, it was tens of billions!
As long as Qiao Qing Shan was able to succeed in inheriting the Seven Stars, then she would undoubtedly be the sole successor. Compared to her current identity, she would undoubtedly be able to rise up another level.
As long as Qixing got her hands on it, she didn't care about the reputation of the Queen of the Piano.
Qiao Xiaomeng was having a beautiful dream recently. How could she be willing to let it break?
Qiao Qing Shan was feeling anxious as well. However, he had run the company for many years, so he was more patient than Qiao Xiaomeng. "Don't worry, this might just be an empty talk."
"Could it be empty air?"
"I suspect that it was that Guan Jie's doing. He has been loyal to Tang Mubai for so many years. How could he be willing to let Tang Mubai's meticulously managed company land in our hands?" Qiao Qing Shan analyzed.
"It's best if it's like this. If it's just Guan Jie's doing, then it's going to be easy. It's as easy as stepping on an ant to deal with someone like him, who has no money, power, or backing." Qiao Xiaomeng said fiercely.
"You, a girl, don't just die and live all day. If I let Bei Bei know what he's thinking, what would he think?" Qiao Qing Shan reminded.
"Rest assured, in front of Bei Bei, I am a gentle, kind, and elegant lady." Qiao Xiaomeng stuck out her tongue at Qiao Qing Shan.
"Alright, I'll get people to pay attention to this matter. Go take a look at your mom. After going out for so many days, she misses you."
"Alright. "Then I'll be going first. Dad, tell me what do you want to eat tonight, and I'll get Auntie to make it for you?"
"Tonight, I might not come home."
"Really? It's rare for me to return home and you won't even come back to eat with me?" Qiao Xiaomeng asked coquettishly, "You have to cherish this rare moment. If I were to get married, the time I would come back would be less and less."
"Well, I'll try to take some time tonight to go home and have dinner with you."
"Dad is still the best. I'm leaving!" Qiao Xiaomeng left with a smile.
Watching his daughter's figure disappear, Qiao Qing Shan picked up the phone and made a call.
Keep an eye on Guan Jie and see what he's been doing recently. Also, investigate the identity of Tang Mubai's daughter as soon as possible! "
Qiao Xiaomeng drove home from the company and found Li Yuzhen sitting on the sofa in the living room, watching television. Hearing the voice, he looked over and saw Qiao Xiao Meng's face filled with surprise. "Xiao Meng, you're back?"
"Yeah." Qiao Xiaomeng walked to Li Yuzhen's side and sat down, putting her arm around her neck. Mom, my dad said you missed me? "
"You've met your father?"
"Yeah, I came back from the company."
"I have no conscience. I will not call for a few days, and as soon as I return, I will go see your father. Do you still have a mother like me in your heart?" Li Yuzhen looked at her daughter reproachfully.
"Don't be angry, the person I want the most is you." Qiao Xiaomeng gave Li Yuzhen a kiss on her cheek.
"Just go on and on, what do you mean by thinking about me the most? In your heart, Lu Bei is the most important, and it's not your mother's turn." Li Yuzhen lovingly patted her daughter's head, "Xiao Meng, does he treat you well by standing north?"
"Alright, how can it not be good?" Qiao Xiaomeng smiled. "Mom, while I was gone, did my dad treat you well?"
"Your dad!" Li Yuzhen sighed and hesitated to speak.
"What's wrong? My dad doesn't treat you well? "
"It's not bad. Men are like that. If you can't get it, then treat it as a treasure. If you get it, then don't put it to heart." Li Yuzhen looked depressed.
"Are you bored?" "Why do I feel that you're a bit sentimental?" Qiao Xiaomeng looked at Li Yuzhen.
"It's not that I'm sentimental, but it's your father. He's been getting more and more social engagements lately, and he's come home late and late …"
"Dad is the boss, isn't it normal to have a lot of social contacts?" "Don't let your thoughts run wild." Qiao Xiaomeng consoled.
"If it was just for a normal social event, then that's fine. When he came back, he was wearing a woman's perfume, and his shirt also had a woman's lipstick print. Before, I kept convincing myself that it was just an accident, but one night, when he came back …"
Li Yuzhen's face revealed a painful expression and she couldn't continue the conversation.
"What?!" What do you think? "
"He actually wore a pair of female underpants and came back!" Li Yuzhen did not care about losing face anymore. Thinking about how he actually fooled around with little demoness outside, my heart really doesn't feel good. "
"What?" "My dad is really, really, how can he treat you like this?" When Qiao Xiaomeng heard this, she immediately became displeased. I'll tell you about him when he comes back tonight. "
"Xiao Meng, don't do anything rash." Li Yuzhen immediately stopped him.
"Why? "Why can't you tell me about him?"
"Are you really stupid or do you not know your limits?" Li Yuzhen sighed, "Your dad is the legitimate and glorious boss now. What do we count as? "If we make him unhappy, then Tang YiRong's fate will be the same as you and me."
"How can you compare? Tang YiRong, that bitch, there's someone outside, and you don't even have anyone outside. Besides, didn't my dad really like you?" It's not like he doesn't know that you've suffered for him for so many years. Besides, isn't my uncle the mayor? "Because of uncle, he has to have some scruples too."
"It's unknown whether your uncle will be able to reinstate his position. Your father is not a soft-hearted person. You can tell from how he treated Tang YiRong. We can't go against him."
"Am I supposed to just let him fool around with those despicable women outside?"
"I can only count on you. Marry him as soon as possible and you will be the Young Madam of the Lu family. He will at least give me some face because of you."
"I understand. I will bring up the matter of marriage as soon as possible."
"Didn't the station mention anything about marrying you?"
"Nope."
"How could this be?" Li Yuzhen looked surprised. You brought up the engagement matter first. In order to get Madam Lu's consent, I gave her a lot of precious jewelry. Don't tell me that now we're getting married so that you can bring up the proposal first? "
"What else can we do? You know he's still thinking about Qiao Wanting." He was still looking forward to the day when Qiao Wanting will not die and come back alive. Even if Lady Lu and Wan Xin didn't pressure him, she wouldn't agree to the engagement, right? " Qiao Xiaomeng said resentfully.
"What should we do? Xiao Meng, I don't want you to follow my path. "
"Mom, I won't follow your old path. You were the one who gave birth to me without a name, and I'm not without a name. I'm the fiancee standing in the north, the golden daughter of Dazzling Spring." Qiao Xiaomeng refuted. " I will definitely get married to Yue Bei right from the start! "
Li Yuzhen did not say anything, but she was worried. Why was things not going well recently? I hope nothing happens.
At noon, the secretary came to report the news to Qiao Qing Shan.
"I've already checked. The woman who is said to be Tang Mubai's daughter is currently staying at River City Hotel. She just arrived at River City two days ago. It was said that she ran into Guan Jie's son, Guan Yuhang, while visiting Plum Garden. Guan Jie recognized her when she went to visit him at the hospital."
"How could there be such a coincidence?" Qiao Qing Shan sneered. "If there was an early arrival or late arrival, it just happened to appear when we were about to make our move. What's more, we coincidentally bumped into the son of an old man like Guan Jie. This doesn't seem right no matter how you look at it."
The secretary nodded, "You're right, that's indeed not right. It seems to be deliberately targeting us. I said, could it be that old guy Guan Jie did this to stop us? After all, if a daughter were to be found out at this time, the court's decision would be delayed. "
"It might really be this old fellow's doing, hmph!" Qiao Qing Shan grunted coldly. This old fellow really doesn't give up his evil intentions. Wasn't it just a dream that he would try to stop me? "
"Yes, he should be able to see what abilities he has now. Did he think that it was the time to follow Tang Mubai?" the secretary agreed.
I remember what you said. That old man Guan Jie is Tang Mubai's man, and he's been by Tang Mubai's side for so many years. He's not an easy person to deal with.
"Are you going to the River City Hotel?"
Qiao Qing Shan's face flashed with a trace of chilliness. "Yes." I want to see where Guan Jie found a Li ghost who dared to pretend to be Li Kui. By the way, arrange for a few people to wait by the hotel. Let me see what Guan Jie has to say first. "
