C491 Follow in His Footsteps
The Tong Family hadn't been very peaceful lately.
Especially after the news of the Soong Family's downfall spread, Tong Zhaoyang was so anxious that he couldn't eat or sleep.
Currently, the situation in Xiang City was getting more and more chaotic. Ning Jiwei and Mo Sheng were having a fierce battle, and the Qiao Family was still neutral. The Soong Family had already fallen, and only the Tong Family was left, unable to advance or retreat.
Zhao Yi walked over and saw Tong Zhaoyang sitting on the sofa smoking.
Recently, his hair had become much whiter, and his complexion was no longer as good as before. He looked like a good person who had aged a few years.
"Chao Yang, you should smoke less." Zhao Yi sat beside him and sighed to persuade him, "Smoking is not good for your health. You have been coughing recently..."
"Why do I need to be healthy?" Tong Zhaoyang laughed at himself and said, "The Tong Family is almost gone. What's the use of having a good body?"
"Morning Sun..." Zhao Yi frowned and said, "Things have not reached the worst state yet. Let's not panic. Maybe... maybe things are not as serious as we think."
Tong Zhaoyang laughed and said, "Not that serious? Believe me, the truth will only be crueler than what we saw and heard."
Zhao Yi was stunned and her eyes were full of worry as she said, "Then what should we do now? How about... transferring the assets first? "
"What's the use of transferring at this time?" Tong Zhaoyang smiled bitterly and said, "If someone really wants to kill us, no matter how we transfer the assets, we can't escape their eyes. Maybe we are already under their surveillance. "
"This..."
Zhao Yi looked upstairs and sighed, "I don't know what Si is thinking. At this time, she actually shut herself in the room and did not want to be in charge."
"Hmph, what can she think? She has caused me enough trouble outside. At this moment, of course I have to hide." Tong Zhaoyang said with a cold snort.
Zhao Yi was stunned for a moment and frowned. "Trouble? It can't be. Didn't Si still have a good relationship with Ning Jiwei and the others a while ago? I asked her, and she said she was fine. "
"Would she dare to tell us the truth?" Tong Zhaoyang said angrily, "Don't you know your daughter's personality well? If she really had a good relationship with Ning Jiwei, she wouldn't even know how many layers of heaven her tail would be. How could she be so obedient and hide at home? "
"But..." Zhao Yi said in disbelief, "But if they really got into trouble, then why didn't Ning Jiwei and the others come to find us?"
Tong Zhaoyang narrowed his eyes and said, "He didn't come to find trouble with us. Maybe he couldn't let go of us, or maybe he didn't care at all. Anyway, it's impossible for us to think of Ning Jiwei's side to please him again. "
"Then... Then what should we do?" Zhao Yi asked anxiously.
Tong Zhaoyang thought for a while and put out the cigarette in his hand. He got up and walked upstairs.
"Chao Yang, where are you going?" Zhao Yi asked.
Tong Zhaoyang snorted and said, "I am going to pick up that unfilial daughter. If she got into trouble, she wants to hide at home for me. It is not such a good thing."
Hearing Tong Zhaoyang's unusually cold and hard voice, Zhao Yi's heart tightened and she hurriedly followed.
In the room, Tong Si was staring blankly at the Soong Family's news.
She was not an ignorant girl who did not know anything. On the contrary, she was very familiar with the Soong Family's situation.
Others might not know, but Tong Si knew that those dirty things in the Soong Family were all done by Soong Wei.
But now, Soong Wei had pushed all the responsibility onto Soong Qiang and Soong Xi.
On the surface, it seemed like Soong Family had lost the battle, and Soong Wei and Soong Lu no longer had their former glory.
But in fact, Soong Wei had found Soong Qiang and Soong Xi as his scapegoat, and the Soong Family's dirty debts had all been settled.
Currently, Soong Wei seemed to be alone, but Tong Si knew that there was still Mo Sheng behind him.
As long as Soong Wei could beg for Mo Sheng's forgiveness, his future would be limitless.1
Thinking of this, Tong Si couldn't help but envy Soong Lu.
She really did not expect Soong Lu to betray Soong Wei and run away from home. After taking a detour back, Soong Wei could still tolerate her by his side in the end.
Tong Si curled her lips and muttered to herself, "If I had known earlier, I would not have picked up that phone call of yours. I would have just let you die outside."
At this time, Tong Si's first thought was not to save herself but to be jealous of Soong Lu.
It could be seen that the evil of human nature could not be changed overnight.
Just as Tong Si was thinking about the matter of Soong Family, the door was suddenly slammed forcefully.
Tong Zhaoyang's unhappy voice came from the door.
"Tong Si, open the door."
Tong Si heard Tong Zhaoyang's voice and frowned slightly. She walked over and opened the door. "Dad, what's the matter?"
Tong Zhaoyang asked coldly, "What are you doing in the room?"
"Nothing." Tong Si shrugged and said, "I have nothing to do anyway. I just want to read novels and play dramas."
"Nonsense!" Tong Zhaoyang loudly scolded her, "Now that the Tong Family is about to be destroyed, you still have the mood to hide in your room and play the novels?"
Tong Si raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at Tong Zhaoyang. She sneered and said, "Dad, you are thinking too much. The Soong Family is going to be destroyed. It is not the Tong Family. Besides, I have done enough for the Tong Family for so long. Why should I be a pawn when the Tong Family is in trouble? Dad, when can you, the head of the family, take effect? "
" You... " Tong Zhaoyang choked on Tong Si's words and said with a dark face, "Tell me, did you offend Ning Jiwei?"
"No." Tong Si said without hesitation.
Tong Zhaoyang sneered, "Tong Si, do you think I don't dare to ask Ning Jiwei?"
"You dare?" Tong Si glanced at Tong Zhaoyang and casually said, "If you dare, then go and ask. Why did you come here to ask me?"
"Presumptuous!" Tong Zhaoyang did not expect that the current Tong Si would not be able to get in. He raised his hand and wanted to greet Tong Si but was stopped by Zhao Yi in time.
Zhao Yi grabbed Tong Zhaoyang's hand and advised, "Chao Yang, if you have something to say, say it properly. Why are you fighting with your daughter?"
Tong Si coldly snorted and turned around to sit on the chair. She did not invite Tong Zhaoyang and Zhao Yi to sit down and did not plan to pour water for them.
Tong Zhaoyang was angry and shook Zhao Yi's hand away, "Talk nicely? Look at this evil girl, does it look like she wants to talk nicely to us?"
Zhao Yi reached out her hand and secretly patted Tong Zhaoyang's arm. Then she walked to Tong Si's side and sat down. "Si, you also saw the matter of Soong Family, right? As one of the four major families of Xiang City, the Soong Family had ended up like this. Your father and I are very worried that our family will follow in the footsteps of the Soong Family in the future."
Tong Si said with a cold face, "Then it is useless for you to tell me. What can a girl like me do? Besides, I have done everything I can. If that day really comes in the Tong Family... It is not my responsibility. "
