Chapter 5 - Curiosity
"I will remember and pay attention to what uncle says. I would never let those people who do small things behind their backs have a good ending. "
Just as Tao Chu Liang said that, two bodyguard like people walked over.
"Miss Tao asked us to come and get you."
Tao Jian Xin stepped in front of Tao Chu Liang to block his way, "What are you doing? Kidnapping? "
Compared to the little people that he knew, Xiang Chen Xi's clue was blurry and dangerous.
If he didn't enter the tiger's den, he wouldn't get the tiger.
Tao Chu Liang secretly clenched his fists, and smirked as he looked at Tao Jian Xin, "Uncle, do not worry, I will take good care of myself."
Tao Chu Liang followed the guidance of the security guards and sat in the back of a black Maserati car. Xiang Chen Xi, who was beside her, did not seem to be surprised by her arrival.
Xiang Chen Xi's body was suffused with the elegant aroma of cedar and coffee, giving off an impression of calmness and restraint.
"Is there nothing you want to ask me?" Xiang Chen Xi gazed at the Tao Chu Liang who had been silent since the moment he got on the carriage, and the corner of his mouth rose into a faint smile.
Tao Chu Liang raised his guard and asked, "What is your relationship with my parents?"
"Cooperative relationship, or employment relationship. For the time being, I have full authority over the company your parents operated. I'll arrange everything before you can inherit the company. " Xiang Chen Xi slightly paused, his thick eyebrows slightly knitted, "How much do you know about your parents' will?"
Tao Chu Liang of course knew the whole story. It was because she knew about this that she was able to understand the reason why Xiang Chen Xi had brought it up.
There was a restriction in his parents' will that Tao Chu Liang could only obtain the inheritance after marrying into a family. This was a clan rule that Grandpa Tao Chu Liang had set down many years ago. The reason why it was set was because Tao Chu Liang was a girl, and they hoped to have a man to marry into their family, to share the clan's business with Tao Chu Liang.
Tao Chu Liang couldn't change the rules set by his grandfather, but this time, she could make use of the chance to choose a marriage partner!
Seeing Tao Chu Liang not saying anything, Xiang Chen Xi did not pursue the matter any further.
The temperature of the air conditioner on the carriage was low, so Xiang Chen Xi reminded the driver to lower the temperature a little, and at the same time, he took out a thin blanket from the carriage and covered Tao Chu Liang's knees.
His actions were gentle and exquisite, completely different from the cold and profound image that Tao Chu Liang had of him.
For a moment, Tao Chu Liang thought that she and Xiang Chen Xi were good friends that had been friends for a long time.
However, in the next second, the villain in Tao Chu Liang's heart hooted: Don't easily believe in strangers man! Aren't you afraid that he will be the next Lu Zi Xuan?
A trace of goodwill towards Xiang Chen Xi that had just risen was coldly wiped away by Tao Chu Liang.
The car slowly drove into a large hidden mansion area, and finally stopped in front of a gray and white simple villa.
"This is also your home from now on." Xiang Chen Xi looked out of the window at the building and got off before Tao Chu Liang.
"Hello, Young Master."
"Good morning, Miss Tao."
Tao Chu Liang couldn't help but to be a little resistant to this battle, thinking that Xiang Chen Xi was making a big fuss over nothing.
"You'll get used to it in the future. "Now follow me upstairs and look at the information." Xiang Chen Xi acted as if he could not see through Tao Chu Liang's rejection, and expressionlessly walked into the villa with his long legs.
The unfamiliar environment made Tao Chu Liang feel very uncomfortable, so she quickly chased after him.
"I can go back to my own house."
Xiang Chen Xi suddenly stopped in his tracks, causing his who was running at a fast pace to almost crash into him.
"I can't live in that little house with you." Xiang Chen Xi said coldly.
Tao Chu Liang was a little angry, "We don't have to live together …"
"You are the future CEO of Taur Group, how can you not care about all the big and small matters in the company? If you're not with me, how are you going to know these details? "
With that said, Xiang Chen Xi turned around coldly, and quickly grabbed Tao Chu Liang's wrist and pulled her along to walk forward.
His actions seemed extremely overbearing, but in reality, the strength he used was incomparably gentle.
Tao Chu Liang tried to struggle free, but he was held tightly by his wrist.
"Since you're afraid, why did you come with me?"
"Curious." Tao Chu Liang's bright eyes flashed with stubbornness.
Curious about what kind of person you are, curious about why Mom and Dad believe you, curious... Why do I have an indescribable feeling of kinship with you?
