Qiao Liang hung up the phone and proceeded to put all of Tang Xi’s design drawings and USB flash disks into the safe under the bed as she asked. The safe was very big, but due to the great number of design drawings, most of its space was occupied. After putting everything in place, Qiao Liang went upstairs to take down the red dress, put it into a box and went out holding it.
The underground passage was not low, just like a tunnel. Just as Tang Xi said, there was a bike in it, which was supposed to be used by her when she went out at ordinary times. The tunnel was not dark because there were switches at both ends of the tunnel. As long as you turned on the switch, the tunnel would be illuminated. Qiao Liang rode the bike slowly on his way to the gate, but as he saw the murals on the tunnel, his heart began to hurt.
It turned out that he meant the whole world to her. Because the whole world abandoned her, she exiled herself. No wonder...
Qiao Liang slowed down, blaming himself as he looked at the murals on the way.
He had only one thought in his mind right now, which was to fly to Tang Xi and never separate from her again—never, ever again.
Taking a deep breath, Qiao Liang sped up and before long he reached the end of the tunnel, where there was a stone gate. Beside it, there was a switch. Qiao Liang reached out to press it. The other side of the gate was the road outside Empire Garden. Qiao Liang phoned a bodyguard. After two minutes, a bodyguard drove over and Qiao Liang passed him the box with the dress, saying, “Keep it well.”
He turned around and closed the stone gate. The bodyguard was surprised to see Qiao Liang coming out of the stone gate. This... this design...
When Qiao Liang had gotten out of the elevator and the clothes had returned to their original places, Tang Zhong knocked on the door and came in. Qiao Liang walked out of cloakroom and looked at him calmly, asking, “Has Mr. Tang finished his physical check yet?”
Tang Zhong nodded with a smile and as he led Qiao Liang out, he said, “The people you brought are highly efficient. Master has finished the physical examination. Thank you, Mr. Qiao.”
Qiao Liang raised his eyebrows at Tang Zhong, who smiled faintly and began to explain. “To be honest, It has been a big headache to ask Master to receive a physical examination. When Miss was still around, she could persuade Master to take them, but now... Master is getting more and more stubborn and we can’t make him change his mind. If it were not your medical team...” He paused to glance at the box covered with the black cloth in Qiao Liang’s hands, then continued softly, “If it were not your medical team, I’m sure Master would still have been reluctant to take a medical examination, so I’d like to thank you, Mr. Qiao.”
Qiao Liang frowned slightly. He had brought the medical team here today just in case Tang Zhenhua didn’t want to go to the hospital with him because Tang Zhenhua might be afraid that it would bring disaster to Empire Group if he appeared in the hospital. That was why he had brought the medical team here.
Tang Xi had specially asked him to give her grandpa a physical examination for her. Thinking of her starry bright eyes, Qiao Liang said to Tang Zhong, “Butler Tang, you can call me if Grandpa is unwilling to accept physical checks again.” With that, he handed over a name card to Tang Zhong.
Tang Zhong looked up in surprise at Qiao Liang, who simply said, “Grandpa’s health is the most important thing now.”
Tang Zhong was in tears. He took Qiao Liang’s name card with both hands and in a hoarse voice, said, “If Miss knew how much you care about her grandpa, she would have been very happy... Unfortunately...”
After a pause, Qiao Liang strode downstairs. When he entered the study, Little Five came up to him and handed in the examination report to him. “His blood pressure is a bit high and so is his cholesterol value, but every other value is normal,” he said in a low voice.
Qiao Liang leafed through the report and handed it back to Little Five. “Send it to Miss Xiao,” he whispered. “You know where Miss Xiao’s hospital is, yes?”
Little Five quickly handed the box to Qiao Liang, took over the report and nodded. However, he wondered why Qiao Liang asked him to send Grandpa Tang’s report to Miss Xiao. Miss Xiao had nothing to do with this Grandpa Tang, but since Young Master had spoken, he had to do it.
At this time, Tang Zhenhua came up to Qiao Liang with a straight face. “Now can you give me that box?” he asked coldly.
Qiao Liang paused and asked Little Five to take the others out with him. Then he looked down at the box in his hand before he nodded and gave Tang Zhenhua the box with both hands, whispering, “I’m sorry. I only found this finger.”
Qiao Liang’s voice was so light that only he and Tang Zhenhua could hear it. Standing opposite him, Tang Zhenhua shook sharply and then reached out his hands, but his hands trembled. He clenched and loosened his hands repeatedly before he finally took the box from Qiao Liang’s hands. He uncovered the black cloth only to see a slightly rotten finger in the crystal transparent box. He could no longer hold his tears and let them flow out of his eyes.
Standing behind Tang Zhenhua, Tang Zhong couldn’t help trembling at the sight of the finger. The cute and energetic Miss now only had a finger left...
How would Master be able to accept this?!
Tang Zhenhua held the box with trembling hands. After quite a while, he calmed down and looked at Qiao Liang. He asked, “Are you sure this belongs to my Xixi?”
Qiao Liang closed his eyes and nodded. “Yes, I’ve checked the DNA when I was in the Pacific Ocean. It’s hers. Sorry...”
Tang Zhenhua waved his hand. “You don’t have to apologize. It’s not your fault. This is my Xixi’s fate.”
“Please take care of yourself,” Qiao Liang said. He stood still for a moment before adding, “That’s what Xixi wants.”
“Thank you for all you have done for Xixi over the years,” Tang Zhenhua said sadly to Qiao Liang when the latter turned around. “You’ve done enough for Xixi. Try to forget her from now on. I think Xixi would also hope that you could be happy. Also, don’t bother me anymore. I... don’t want to see you again.”
Qiao Liang paused and said flatly, “I have to go. See you.”
After Qiao Liang left, Tang Zhenhua kept silent for quite a while before he said to Tang Zhong, “Take me to the ancestral temple.”
...
Qiao Liang stepped out of Empire Garden and took a look back before frowning and turning to get on the car. Little Six handed the box with Tang Xi’s red dress over to Qiao Liang, who took it and after a long silence, said, “To the airport.”
Qiao Liang remained silent on the way to the airport. Little Five hesitated, but still decided to ask, “Young Master, don’t you think it’s unfair to Miss Xiao for you to do this?”
Qiao Liang frowned. Little Five looked at Qiao Liang in the rearview mirror and said, “Even if you glare at me, I still think it’s unfair to Miss Xiao.”
