Chapter 62 - Discriminating truth from falsehood

As the annual meeting was coming up, Tao Chu Liang worked until late into the night before finally dragging his tired body home.

When she returned home, the servant asked her about it before she could say anything.

"Young Master didn't come back with you?"

He's not back yet?

Tao Chu Liang was suspicious.

Logically speaking, shouldn't Xiang Chen Xi be home by now? Even if it was close to the end of the year, it was about time to go home. Was he trying to escape the other party just like him?

He wondered if he had eaten yet at such a late hour …

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but laugh at herself.

Heh heh, why should I care about him? Hadn't he always had Tao Yi Fei with him recently? Where would he find the leisure to think about himself?

But after hesitating for a long time, she still called Assistant Xiang Chen Xi.

"Hello, may I ask if Item Total is still busy working at the company? I have something to talk to him about. "

The assistant told her apologetically that Xiang Chen Xi had been out of luck for the afternoon and would probably not be back for a while. If there was anything important, he could help to pass the message.

Travel? Why hadn't she heard him talk about it before? Had he taken her to Bali the last time, to play with someone on a business trip?

Tao Chu Liang could not help but feel a little stuffy.

She went to her bedroom, took a quick shower, changed into clean clothes, and lay down on the bed.

Her relationship with Xiang Chen Xi seemed to be becoming more and more entangled. This was not a good omen, and up till now, he was still not sure if Xiang Chen Xi was a scum like Lu Zi Xuan.

Thinking of the tragic marriage that he had spent the rest of his life in, his eyes were flooded with emotions. His slender hands tightly gripped the bedsheet.

Tao Chu Liang scratched her head in annoyance. Up till today, she had spent most of her time on work, and he still did not have any leads on the plane crash. It seemed that he had to rely on Xiang Chen Xi to investigate.

From the looks of it, the accident between his parents and his uncle's family was definitely related. Tao Yi Fei …

Just like in the TV series, bad people always lived a long life and could bear the torment.

Even if Tao Chu Liang hated Tao Yi Fei to the bones, he would not be able to remove the thorn in his heart in a short time.

Deep in the night, Tao Chu Liang was still tossing and turning on his hands.

She stared at the ceiling in the darkness.

The feeling of insomnia was too annoying. It was fine if he could not sleep, but all sorts of troublesome things were happening in his mind at this moment.

There was something on her mind that wouldn't go away.

The anonymous letter...

Even after so many days of interaction, she still could not see Xiang Chen Xi clearly.

What did he want from her? Was it her parents' inheritance?

The anonymous letter said that the parents' signatures were false.

If what the letter said was true, then what exactly did he want her to do? She wasn't related to him in any way, and she wasn't entrusted by her parents. Then why did he need to help her so much?

In her opinion, her parents' relationship with him during their lifetime was only at this level. During her time in his company, she had also secretly investigated his company, with its good operations and good income, and Xiang Chen Xi was not the type of person who thinks that money is his life, he did not lack money …

If so, perhaps the anonymous letter had been faked by the Tao family to sow dissension in their relationship?

There was no end to all the contradictions.

Tao Chu Liang really wished that he had a pair of scissors to cut off all the chaotic thoughts in his mind.

After staying quiet in the darkness for a long time, Tao Chu Liang sighed lightly and sat up, wanting to find something to eat to fill his lonely stomach.

He was busy working overtime at the company and had forgotten to eat dinner. After being at home for so long, he finally realized that he was hungry.

As she passed by Xiang Chen Xi's study, an ice-cold night breeze blew past, causing her to shiver slightly.

Tao Chu Liang subconsciously looked towards the room.

Xiang Chen Xi left in a hurry, forgetting to close the window. The wind was strong tonight, Tao Chu Liang thought as he walked in and closed the window.

Just as she closed the window, she heard a crashing sound. She turned around and knocked over the documents on the table. The documents were scattered all over the place. She quickly squatted down to pick them up.

While she was picking it up, a document with the word adoption certificate suddenly appeared before her.

Tao Chu Liang was startled, and took out the piece of paper. The contents of the anonymous letter kept on telling her to keep the document, and if Xiang Chen Xi saw her doing it, he would definitely not believe it.

With a slight frown, Tao Chu Liang started to hesitate.

Tao Chu Liang was lost, but very quickly, his eyes regained his clarity, and he kept the document.

She couldn't bear to be careless when it came to matters related to her parents. Why was she still thinking about him at a time like this?

Returning to bed, Tao Chu Liang forced himself to close his eyes. However, she knew that this was bound to be a sleepless night …

As his rest was not good, early the next morning, Tao Chu Liang was in a trance. Her expression was haggard, the uncles and aunties of Department of Logistics could not help but be worried for her.

"Department Head Tao, are you sick?"

"Minister, why don't you take a break today?"

Tao Chu Liang waved his hand, "I'm fine."

Tao Chu Liang kept feeling his heart throbbing.

She was somewhat afraid, but she could not figure out what she was afraid of.

Perhaps he was afraid that the proof in his hands was fake.

If it was really fake … Then Xiang Chen Xi was not her guardian, the two of them had nothing to do with each other.

Everything that had happened had become a huge joke.

However, these past few days, it seemed like she had gotten used to his presence. She seemed to have developed a sense of dependence on him …

Thinking to this point, Tao Chu Liang started to panic. If he didn't have him in the future, what kind of situation would this be?

The phone on the desk suddenly rang. Tao Chu Liang was surprised, he patted his chest, the call came at the wrong time.

"Hello, this is the logistics office." Tao Chu Liang greeted politely.

Just as Tao Chu Liang asked a few times but did not hear the other party's voice, waiting impatiently for him to hang up, a low and deep male voice came out.

"..." I am Xiang Chen Xi. " There was a long silence.

"What's the matter? Item Total. " Hearing that it was Xiang Chen Xi, Tao Chu Liang's voice also turned cold, the fire had truly added fuel to the fire, she was currently annoyed by Xiang Chen Xi's adoption certificate, so the perpetrator came to harass her.

She remembered that she didn't even mention it to him when she was on a business trip, and sarcastic words immediately popped up in her mind.

"Weren't you busy on a business trip? How did you have the free time to call me?"

"Tao Chu Liang, do you have an hour to calm down 24 hours a day?" On the other end of the phone, Xiang Chen Xi could not help but feel a little angry.

After the meeting yesterday, he went on a business trip. He was busy all the way until late at night, and the plane was still late. He had delayed his trip and always wanted to give her a call.

"I'm just here to tell you that the funds for the Annual Assembly have already been allocated. There's no need to worry … Also, remember to eat breakfast. "

When Tao Chu Liang heard his last sentence, he was slightly stunned.

He is... Are you still thinking about her? Did you eat breakfast?

A warm feeling arose in his heart for no reason, but it was quickly drowned by worry and anxiety.
