Chapter 65: A Phone Call


Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee


Xiao Jing certainly had Qiao Liang’s phone number, but upon hearing his sister asking him for it, he subconsciously shook his head and made a denial. “No, I don’t have his phone number!”


Tang Xi giggled and Xiao Sa shook his head, saying, “Are you kidding me? If you don’t have Qiao Liang’s phone number, then who else would have it?”


“So what?” Xiao Jing was very reluctant to admit that he had Qiao Liang’s phone number, but under his sister’s threatening stare, he could only surrender. He looked at Tang Xi helplessly and asked, “Why do you want Qiao Liang’s phone number?”


Tang Xi smiled. She already had Qiao Liang’s phone number; it was just that it was not appropriate for her to call him.


“I promised to go accompany Aunt Qiao next Sat.u.r.day, but I just remembered that I’ll be going to Hongs.h.i.+ Mountain to shoot the TV commercial on that day. I may not be free at that time.” Xiao Sa was peeling lobsters for Tang Xi and putting the lobster meat onto her plate. Tang Xi said while eating, “I forgot to ask Aunt Qiao for her phone number. Would you call Qiao Liang and tell him I may not be available on Sat.u.r.day, and ask him to pick me up on Friday afternoon? I’ll go accompany Aunt Qiao for dinner then.”


Xiao Jing said, “Just don’t go there next week.” Feeling a bit jealous, Xiao Jing thought that even Qiao Liang wouldn’t treat his mother so well.


Tang Xi frowned and looked at Xiao Jing in displeasure. “Jing, a gentleman will keep his words.”


“I don’t want to remind you of a cruel fact,” Xiao Jing began, and seeing that she had almost finished the lobsters on her plate, he picked up the seafood from his pasta and put it onto her plate before finis.h.i.+ng, “but you are a little girl, not a gentleman.”


Tang Xi laughed and said, “Jing, I’m just asking you to make a phone call. Is it necessary for you to give such a long speech?” My dear brother, cut the c.r.a.p!


Xiao Jing reluctantly took out his cell phone and called Qiao Liang’s private phone number, which was only known to those close to him. Tang Xi glanced at it and found it was Qiao Liang’s phone number before she lowered her head to eat the seafood on her plate.


Then she found that the seafood in the seafood pasta seemed to be more delicious, so she secretly picked the seafood from their plates onto her own and ate it up while Xiao Sa was busy peeling the lobsters and Xiao Jing was making the phone call.


Xiao Sa shook his head with a smile when he noticed what she had done. “We’ll take you out for a seafood meal tonight and you can eat as much of it as you like.”


Xiao Jing didn’t mind it either. In any case, he had offered to give her the seafood on his plate just now. As long as his sister was happy, he would be happy even with plain noodles.


The phone call connected, and Qiao Liang’s cold yet faintly tired voice came from the phone, “What’s up?”


Xiao Jing asked, “Have you found her?”


“Not yet?” Qiao Liang paused and before Xiao Jing answered, he added, “I found her finger in the sea near a small island in the Pacific Ocean and it was confirmed as hers.”


Xiao Jing’s heart sank. So the woman had really died? He said, “I’m sorry to hear that. When will you be back?”


Qiao Liang said after a long pause, “I’m in Long Beach now and won’t go back for some time. Take care of the company for me.” Then the sound of a helicopter came from his side and he said, “Just when I thought she had died, I got an email from her. Its IP address is located in Long Beach. I will find her.”


Xiao Jing felt his heart miss a beat. “Is she still alive?” His tone was slightly off due to being too excited.


Xiao Sa and Tang Xi also stopped and listened attentively to Xiao Jing. Xiao Sa looked curious, but Tang Xi was calm. When she had sent the email last night, she knew that he would definitely check the email’s IP address, so she had positioned the IP address on Long Beach.


It seemed that Qiao Liang was going to get on the helicopter. He said in a low voice, “Anything else? I have to go. They found someone in a small town, and I’m gonna check it out myself.”


Xiao Jing said, “Umm, nothing serious. I will text you later. Go ahead for your matters first.” Then he fell in thought for a while before saying, “Good luck to you.”


“Thank you,” Qiao Liang said and hung up the phone.


Qiao Liang boarded the helicopter, fastened his seat belt and asked Little Five, “Is the news accurate? Is that Xixi?”


Little Five shook his head. “They just said the girl was rescued from the sea more than a month ago, paralyzed and missing an arm. She is still in the town hospital.”


Qiao Liang clenched his hands. This was still good news for him. Even if she was disabled, at least she was still alive.


However, when Qiao Liang saw the woman in the hospital bed one hour later, he was still disappointed. He asked in a low voice, “In which area of the sea was she found?”


“Fishermen rescued her on the coast near the Pacific Ocean when they were out at sea. She is probably a survivor of the plane crash.” Little Five looked at the woman in bed and thought: How lucky she is to survive after being stuck in the sea for so long! Could Miss Tang be so lucky?


Of course, he dared not remind his Young Master of the cruel reality. Qiao Liang merely said “Umm” and turned around to walk out. Little Five hurriedly followed him and asked, “Young Master, how are we to handle this woman?”


Qiao Liang said without looking back, “Hand her to Interpol.”


He didn’t think the airplane crash was an accident at all. It must have been deliberately planned by someone, so he had asked Interpol to investigate it after he received the news. Even if she died, he would never let off those who had murdered her!


Little Five shrugged and looked back at the woman in the hospital bed. Being so seriously wounded, she might never be able to wake up, yet Young Master was going to hand her over to Interpol—how cruel he was.


But of course, he would follow Young Master’s order. After all, he was just his subordinate.


Soon he contacted Interpol, informed them of this matter and left the hospital.


On the other side of things, Xiao Jing hung up the phone only to find two curious eyes glowing with the fire of gossip staring at him. He shook his head and said, “Come on, give me a break.”


Tang Xi and Xiao Sa shouted at the same time, “We need to know!”


Tang Xi asked, “Is that Miss Tang still alive?”


Xiao Sa asked, “So this time the Prince and the Princess are going to live happily ever after?”


Xiao Jing snorted, throwing his cell phone aside and picking up his fork to eat his pasta. “She hasn’t been found. It’s too early to tell the results.”


Tang Xi pursed her lips and continued to eat seafood, while Xiao Sa graciously enjoyed the seafood on his plate. “Then what happened?”


Xiao Sa said exactly what Qiao Liang had told him. Xiao Sa and Tang Xi exchanged a glance, and Tang Xi lowered her head to eat the seafood on her plate and prevented them from seeing the emotions in her eyes. Then she asked, “Is someone spoofing Qiao Liang?”
