After sending Secretary Si off, Tang Zitong suddenly commented, âOther than his sharp tongue, heâs actually not that bad.â
Tang Ze said to her in amusement, âNo matter what, Secretary Si has helped us a lot. Donât be so aggressive when you see him next time.â
âIf he wasnât so sharp-tongued, why would I be aggressive? You guys donât know this, but when I was teaching Yu Meng, he suddenly said that I was misleading her. If it were you guys, wouldnât you be angry?â
âMaybe you really taught her wrong back then.â
Hearing that, Tang Zitong fell silent.
Her reaction was clearly a sign that she had taught Yu Meng something wrong.
Tang Zitong was silent for a few seconds before saying, âEven so, as an outsider, he shouldnât say that. Itâs rude.â
Tang Zitong decided that if they met again next time, she would be polite to him if he wasnât rude.
Tang Li also looked at Tang Zitong in amusement and said, âWhat Secretary Si suggested doesnât sound bad. Letâs work hard from now on. We might really be able to save a lot of money on advertisements.â
At this point, she paused for a moment before saying, âSecond Sister, remember Secretary Siâs phone number. If you donât understand anything, ask him.â
Tang Zitong wanted to say that she wouldnât ask, but she really couldnât handle it alone, so she reluctantly punched down Secretary Siâs phone number on her phone and said, âIf he dares to talk back to me, Iâll talk back too.â
Tang Li smiled and nodded. âGo ahead. If you canât win, tell me. Iâll help you.â
Tang Zitong was happy.
It was almost lunchtime. The three of them found a restaurant nearby and sat down. Tang Zitong suddenly started talking about Xiang Wanwan.
âDidnât Third Brother want to woo Wanwan? Why isnât he making any moves? Every time Wanwan comes to our house on weekends, heâs always not at home. These few days, he suddenly becomes anxious and asks us to help him think of a way to woo her. Fourth Sister, weâre also single. What do we know about chasing after people? Fortunately, Ziqing was quite helpful and thought of a lot of ideas for Third Brother.â
Tang Li actually forgot about this. Now that she heard it, she frowned and asked, âDoes Third Brother really like Xiang Wanwan?â
âOf course he does. I think boys will like a girl like Xiang Wanwan, donât you think so, Brother?â
Tang Ze, ââ¦Donât ask me.â
He didnât like her.
Tang Zitong made a face at him and said to Tang Li, âLast week, Wanwan was injured. Third Brother was so anxious that he almost asked you for medicine.â
Tang Li lowered her eyes and thought for a moment. She was a little worried, but she did not say anything about it.
After dinner, Tang Li went to the Situ family alone.
This time, she drove herself. When the car reached the gate of the mountain, she was stopped.
The person who stopped her was in his forties. He was wearing a dress made of satin, but he had white hair.
There was a strange tattoo on his neck and a string of beads on his wrist.
Tang Li glanced at the tattoo on his neck and then at the beads on his wrist. She narrowed her eyes and asked, âWhat do you want?â
The man didnât beat about the bush. âIâm Situ Li, the fifth son. I want to ask Miss Tang for help. I wonder if Miss Tang is willing to do business with me.â
Tang Li had never seen or heard of this person before. She said, âI promised Situ Huang that I wonât do any business until Situ Jin recovers.â
âItâs alright, I can wait,â Fifth Master Situ said. âIâll wait until Miss Tang finishes treating Situ Jin.â
Tang Li frowned. She did not really want to do business with him, but she still asked out of habit, âWhat can you give me in return?â
Fifth Master Situ must have been prepared. He said, âIâll give Miss Tang whatever you want.â
Tang Li pointed at the bead on his wrist. âI want that.â
Fifth Master Situâs pupils constricted slightly, but he nodded after some thought. âSure.â
Tang Li was satisfied. âYou can move aside now.â
Fifth Master Situ retreated to the side.
Tang Li drove in.
When Tang Li arrived at Situ Huangâs house, Situ Huang already knew about Fifth Master Situ stopping Tang Li.
He looked at Tang Li and kindly reminded her, âTang Li, youâd better think carefully before doing business with my fifth brother. Otherwise, you might ruin your reputation if you fail.â
Tang Li looked at Situ Huang and asked, âIs the person your fifth brother wants me to treat dead?ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Unexpectedly, Situ Huang nodded. âYes.â
Tang Li was speechless.
Looking at Tang Li who had a serious expression on her face, Situ Huang said, âI told you before that itâs best if you donât do business with my brothers. Let me tell you the truth. My fifth brother will definitely ask you to treat his wife. Sheâs a dead person. Can you treat a dead person?â
Tang Li looked at Situ Huang and said with a straight face, âThank you very much, but there is no business in this world that I canât do. Donât worry.â
Situ Huang sneered, âThen Iâll wait and see.â
âHumph!â
Tang Li did not want to talk to this old man and walked towards Situ Jinâs courtyard.
Situ Huang immediately followed suit. As he walked, he said, âMy son just woke up not long ago and is now taking the herb bath.â
Tang Li nodded.
At this moment, a person walked out of the villa. When she saw the two of them, she called out, âFather, Fourth Madam.â
It was Situ Yueqin.
After Situ Yueqin called the two of them, she quickly walked over.
She asked Tang Li, âFourth Madam, how is my brother now?â
When she asked this question, there was undisguised concern on her face.
Before Tang Li could say anything, Situ Huang reprimanded her with displeasure, âHow many times have I told you not to ask about your brotherâs illness?â
âBut⦠okayâ¦â Situ Yueqin lowered her head, not daring to ask further.
Tang Li glanced at her and continued walking in with Situ Huang.
Situ Huang stopped talking.
When the two of them arrived near the Situ familyâs courtyard, Tang Li realized that there were suddenly many bodyguards surrounding the courtyard.
Situ Huang told her, âIn order to prevent what happened last night from happening again, I raised the security level.â
Tang Li nodded. Knowing that he was guarding against his brothers, she walked in without saying anything.
At that moment, Situ Jin was taking a bath. Tang Li went in to check on him, but when she walked in, she found that Qin Mingyue was also there.
Most importantly, Qin Mingyue was there alone, washing Situ Jinâs hair.
