Chapter 405: Hallucination?

~9 min read 1,616 words

Xu Tian's possessiveness was just at work; he wasn't really angry, not to mention Tang Bingyan's coaxing method, which had no trace of deliberation, which extinguished the little fire left in his heart.

"Well, I haven't asked about the personnel changes in the branch company during this period. I didn't expect their management of employees to be so loose. I will let A Wei pay attention."

In fact, there was no need for Tang Bingyan to order. After A Wei sent the peacock away, he immediately set about dealing with this "time bomb".

The relationship between Xu Tian and his eldest young lady had just made some progress. If they had a rift because of these messy people, it would be a loss that outweighed the gain.

At the same time, in an office of a branch company under the Tang Group.

Jiang Yan was reading the newspaper when he suddenly heard a knock on the door. Immediately after, the young man he had just sent out walked in with his head held high.

"Why are you back? Is the task I entrusted to you done?"

The young man nodded.

"Tang Zong is not as unapproachable as the rumors say. She even let me go to the study to deliver the contract to her. When I reported the project progress to her, she didn't say anything either. It's just that I hadn't been at the villa for long before that pretty boy Xu Tian ran back, and I didn't have time to cultivate feelings with Tang Zong."

"However, this Xu Tian doesn't seem to be as eloquent as the rumors say. He even broke into Tang Zong's study without knocking, and he dared to question Tang Zong directly. I guess he must be arguing with Tang Zong at this time."

"I know women very well, especially strong women like Tang Zong. They must hate men who are jealous, angry, looking for trouble, and losing their temper over small things the most. What's more, I went to Tang Zong to report work, and that kid had no reason to lose his temper at all."

"Even if Tang Zong indulges him again, her patience is limited. Even if it doesn't succeed once, after a long time, the two will definitely have a rift. At that time, his status will not be as stable as it is now."

Seeing the young man full of confidence, Jiang Yan's tightly frowned brows also relaxed, revealing a few smiles.

"If you can really make Tang Zong and that pretty boy Xu Tian have a rift and successfully take the position, the city center property I promised you before can be directly changed into a villa."

"Thank you, President Jiang."

The young man revealed a grateful smile, but in his heart, he disdained the reward he promised. If he could really succeed in taking the position, he would be the Tang family's son-in-law. At that time, he would have half of the entire Tang Group. Where would he still need the villa promised by Jiang Yan?

The young man was still dreaming of marrying a rich and beautiful woman and reaching the pinnacle of life, but Jiang Yan suddenly received a phone call.

The person on the other end of the phone only said a few words, and Jiang Yan's face became as gloomy as water, getting uglier and uglier. After a full five minutes, he put down the phone and grabbed the folder on the desk and smashed it at the young man opposite.

"Didn't you say that the task I entrusted to you was done?"

The young man was unprepared and was hit by the folder. The proud look on his face suddenly froze. He was stunned for a long time before asking carefully: "Manager Jiang... what exactly happened?"

"You still have the face to ask me what happened?" Jiang Yan roared: "You're fired!"

"What? Impossible!" The young man was shocked: "How could Tang Zong fire me..."

"The personnel department has already notified me. Pack your things and leave now!"

Jiang Yan was not lightly angered. This self-righteous idiot messed up the matter and dared to be complacent and ask for credit in front of him.

It seems that he really underestimated that pretty boy Xu Tian! How should he explain this to Mr. Gu?

Just when Jiang Yan was overwhelmed here, Xu Tian and Tang Bingyan went out for a candlelight dinner and then drove back to the villa.

The small garden of the villa was hung with exquisite bamboo lanterns, and various snacks and fruits were set up, including the sweet melons that Tang Bingyan specifically instructed A Wei to air-freight back from the Western Alliance.

"It's really quite strange. I didn't like to eat sweets before, nor did I like to eat fruit, but recently I often want to eat this kind of sweet food."

Xu Tian used a small fork to fork a piece of sweet melon and fed it into Tang Bingyan's mouth.

In fact, he didn't just dislike eating sweets before; he even felt that things like desserts and fruits were what little girls liked to eat. If any man said he liked to eat sweets, he would be despised by him in his heart.

He didn't expect that one day he would also become the person he despised before.

However, Xu Tian was just complaining to Tang Bingyan casually, but he didn't expect Tang Bingyan to suddenly ask: "Is this the only change?"

Xu Tian was stunned, then thought carefully, and then shook his head.

"Should not be."

"Really not?" Tang Bingyan said thoughtfully: "Think carefully again."

"Hmm... does becoming more inseparable from you count?"

"Smooth-tongued." Tang Bingyan picked up a piece of sweet melon and blocked Xu Tian's mouth.

However, although she disliked it on her lips, suspicious blushes appeared on both sides of her cheeks.

Just then, Xu Tian's mobile phone rang, and he answered the phone.

"Hello? Okay, I know."

After hanging up the phone, he smiled apologetically at Tang Bingyan and explained: "Wife, there is some work in the agency that needs me to go back to deal with, so I won't accompany you. You go to sleep early in a while."

He had previously gone on a business trip because of the mission of the Tang Group, so the work of Qingguo Music had naturally accumulated a lot, and it happened that the copyright of a singer's record in the company had some problems recently, which required Xu Tian to go back urgently to deal with it.

So after he greeted Tang Bingyan, he took the car key handed by A Wei and went to the garage to get the car.

After driving out of the Tang family villa, Xu Tian went straight to the company. After solving the copyright dispute, it was almost midnight when he left the company.

Because it was too late, he was worried about affecting Tang Bingyan's rest, so he planned to return to the nearby apartment to continue dealing with the documents that he hadn't had time to deal with during the business trip.

Xu Tian carried a thick stack of documents and took the elevator to the underground parking lot. He walked to the back of the car, opened the trunk, and put the documents in. Just as he was about to close the trunk, his movement suddenly paused.

I don't know if it was his illusion, but he felt that there was a hidden line of sight in this underground parking lot monitoring himself.

He looked around, the large parking lot was empty, and at this time, except for those who intended to work overtime all night upstairs, there was no one else in the entire building, and there was not even a shadow in the parking lot except for him.

"Perhaps I'm too tired and hallucinating."

Xu Tian didn't take it to heart, but went around to the driver's seat, opened the door, got in, and drove directly back to the Lanshan Haoting apartment.

On the way back, because Xu Tian was worried about fatigue driving, he slowed down the car speed, and because he wanted to return to the apartment quickly, he chose a small road that was twice as fast as the usual journey.

However, as Xu Tian drove, he found that this road was becoming more and more unfamiliar, and it didn't seem to be the shortcut to the apartment.

"Did I go the wrong way?"

Xu Tian turned on the car navigation to check the current location, but the navigation seemed to be broken, and no matter how he touched the screen, there was no response.

He slowed down again, watching the buildings on both sides of the road becoming more and more unfamiliar, and secretly called out bitterness in his heart.

However, such a narrow small road didn't allow him to turn around at all, and he could only keep driving forward and change direction at the next intersection.

After driving for a while, Xu Tian seemed to vaguely remember that an area nearby had been planned as a professional land for relevant departments, and large-scale demolition was being organized recently. Perhaps he had accidentally circled into the area that was about to be demolished.

However, fortunately, no vehicles would enter such an alley, and there would be no situation of collision in different directions, so Xu Tian was relieved and boldly accelerated the car speed, wanting to leave this maze-like alley as soon as possible.

However, just a few hundred meters away from the next intersection, Xu Tian suddenly saw a black shadow flash past his eyes through the windshield. ===== CHAPTER 406 =====
