Tang Xinrui Is Exposed

"And this is?" Tang Jiayang looked at Leng Shaoting who was standing behind Gu Ning.1

"Oh, this is my boyfriend, Leng Shaoting," Gu Ning said.

"Nice to see you, Mr. Leng." Tang Jiayang wasn't surprised that Gu Ning already had a boyfriend at such an early age.

"Nice to see you," Leng Shaoting said.

After that, they began to talk about the business.

"The mastermind behind the scheme must feel threatened since Jiayang is back now, so Jiayang will be in a very dangerous situation these days. Yunhang, send two of the best bodyguards to protect Jiayang," Tang Haifeng said.

"Sure," Tang Yunhang replied.

Gu Ning took out a porcelain bottle at this time, and there were three power crystals inside. She gave it to Tang Jiayang. "Take this medicine with you. If you're injured, take a pill at once."

"Thanks." Tang Jiayang took it without hesitation, because he had heard a lot about Gu Ning and knew that she had a magical medicine and that his grandfather was cured by it.

They didn't stay in the ward for long, and went back to the Tang family's house later.

…

In City F, the police finally caught the man who had raped Lin Lijuan after two days of searching and investigation, then took him to court.

A rapist was generally put in jail for more than three years, and less than 10 years, but the man would have the heaviest sentence since Lin Lijuan was Gu Ning's relative.

However, after the investigation, the police found out that the man had been put in jail once before because of the same crime, and he didn't leave prison until last year.

Given his previous behavior, the police believed that he must have committed other crimes as well. It turned out that he had committed the crime of rape twice within this year, so he would be put in jail for the rest of his life.

Gu Qinxiang told Gu Qingyun what had happened to Lin Lijuan, but he didn't tell him that Lin Lijuan had been raped.

What had happened to Lin Lijuan didn't go abroad either. In addition to them, only the police in the police station were aware of it.

When Gu Qingyun heard the terrible news that Lin Lijuan had a mental problem now, he asked for leave, and came back home without delay.

…

In the Tang family's house, the housekeeper already told the cooks to prepare dinner.

Although Tang Yunfan accepted the fact that Leng Shaoting was Gu Ning's boyfriend, he still didn't know how to get along with him, especially when Gu Man was absent and he didn't know who he could talk with.

During the past years, Tang Yunfan seldom talked with his family, and they didn't share many common topics either.

After dinner, Tang Yunfan asked Leng Shaoting, "Do you know how to play Xiangqi[1]?"

"Sure," Leng Shaoting said.

"Come on, play with me," Tang Yunfan said.

"No problem." Leng Shaoting agreed. Tang Yunfan was his future father-in-law, and he didn't dare to reject him.

When they were in the game, Tang Yunfan didn't focus on it, and made many mistakes, but Leng Shaoting never pointed it out, nor complained, because they were just playing it for fun.

Leng Shaoting's good attitude pleased Tang Yunfan, and he let him go after two rounds.

They stayed for a while longer, then left along with Cao Wenxin.

That night, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting "exercised" as usual before they fell asleep together.

…

Gu Man went back to City B the day after the opening of the beauty salon, because both Gu Ning and Tang Yunfan were in City B, and she missed them.

On the other hand, Leng Shaoting had to leave to deal with something that morning. Although he was unwilling to leave Gu Ning, he had to do so.

Apart from that, Zuo Jiangkui would arrive at City B that afternoon. Qi Tianlin called Gu Ning at noon and told her to meet him at the same room in the Earth Nightclub tonight around 8 pm.

…

Gu Man landed at the airport of City B around 12:30 pm, and Gu Ning went to pick her up. After that, they went to dine together before Gu Ning drove Gu Man to the Tang family's house.

Gu Man told Gu Ning what Lin Lijuan had been through during the past several days. Gu Ning was surprised, but didn't have any sympathy for her. Lin Lijuan wasn't someone important in her life, and Gu Man was kind enough to Lin Lijuan. If Gu Ning had been there, she would have ignored Lin Lijuan.

Gu Man had no intention to make Gu Ning feel sorry for Lin Lijuan, she simply told Gu Ning the story.

After lunch, Gu Ning drove Gu Man to the Tang family's house.

It was a busy day for Gu Ning today, and she received K's call when they arrived.

K told her that he had found a secret about Tang Deming. Tang Deming had been to a house many days ago. The house was under the name of a woman called Tang Xinrui, and Tang Xinrui had shown up at the opening ceremony of Jade Beauty Jewelry.

Afterwards, K sent Gu Ning an email.

Gu Ning checked the email at once on her phone.

Tang Xinrui was 24 years old this year and had graduated from Country Y half a year ago. Her major was business administration. After graduation, Tang Xinrui went back home and now worked in the finance department of Tanghuang Group.

After reading that, Gu Ning was very clear that Tang Xinrui applied for a job in Tanghuang Group for a certain purpose.

Since Tang Deming had contacted Tang Xinrui, what was their relationship?

The document showed that Tang Xinrui was an orphan and had been adopted by a woman in Country Y, but it was obvious that there must be a connection between Tang Deming and Tang Xinrui.

Gu Ning thought that Tang Xinrui might be Tang Deming's love child or they could be relatives. It was also possible that they just worked together for the same aim.

Gu Ning, however, believed that Tang Xinrui wasn't the mastermind, but just a pawn.

K also found out that there were two phone numbers under Tang Xinrui's ID card, and the two phone numbers contacted each other often. It was obvious that another person was using the other phone number.

Seeing that, Gu Ning suspected that the mastermind could be using the other phone number under Tang Xinrui's ID card.
