"Dad, speak your mind, this cooperation talk with Haitong Group was your arrangement, letting Tang Shimin and Tang Ziqi go together. Now that the cooperation is settled, why is it all Tang Ziqi's credit?"
Li Xiumei ignored the Tang family members and looked at Tang Yuan, asking.
"I let Shimin and Ziqi go together, but this cooperation agreement was brought back by Ziqi, so the credit naturally belongs to Ziqi. I am a person who rewards and punishes clearly. If the cooperation agreement was brought back by Shimin, I would definitely give her this credit!"
Upon hearing this, Li Xiumei was so angry that she slapped Tang Shimin.
"You good-for-nothing, you were clearly sent together, why did you let Tang Ziqi have the contract!"
Li Xiumei shouted at Tang Shimin.
"Ah..."
Tang Shimin cried loudly from the slap.
"Li Xiumei, is it necessary? To the point of hitting your own daughter!"
"It's just because your own daughter didn't get the cooperation agreement, you can't hit people. Don't you know your own daughter has problems with her brain?"
"Exactly, for money, you'll do anything. Shameless!"
"..."
The Tang family members immediately started mocking when they saw Li Xiumei hitting Tang Shimin.
Tang Zixuan said smugly, "Grandpa, without further ado, sign and seal the contract directly, and Ziqi and I will deliver it to the Chairman of Haitong Group!"
"Okay, I'll sign and seal it now. This matter is entrusted to you and Ziqi!"
Tang Yuan said, and excitedly took the contract to the company.
Seeing the proud look of Tang Zixuan's family, Li Xiumei gritted her teeth in hatred, but she could do nothing. In the Tang family, Tang Yuan was autocratic and had the final say. Since Tang Yuan had determined that this credit belonged to Tang Zixuan and Tang Ziqi, even if she knelt down and begged Tang Yuan, it would be of no avail.
"Go home, you bunch of good-for-nothings, you can't do anything right, and you let others snatch all the credit that was within reach!"
Li Xiumei roared and left the Tang family villa in a huff.
Back home, Lu Yang saw the slap mark on Tang Shimin's face, and his expression immediately changed.
"Shimin, who hit you?"
"I did, do you have any problem with that, you good-for-nothing?"
Li Xiumei said coldly.
"Mom, why did you hit Shimin? She's just a child!"
Lu Yang asked with concern.
"Why? It's true that birds of a feather flock together. My daughter has been with you for too long and has become like you, a good-for-nothing. They went to Haitong Group with Tang Ziqi, so why did Tang Ziqi snatch all the credit?"
"Now all the benefits have been snatched by Tang Ziqi and Tang Zixuan. Tang Shimin didn't get a single cent of benefit. Truly useless, useless!"
"And you, if you hadn't brought Shimin back, things wouldn't have turned out this way. You jinx, get out quickly. It's all because of you that our Tang family can't get lucky (qishan: dialect, good luck, promising, capable)!"
Li Xiumei vented all her anger on Lu Yang. If he said one wrong word, she would drive him out.
"Mom, this matter is definitely not that simple. I heard that the Chairman of Haitong Group wanted to sign the contract with our Shimin back then. Their signed one should be useless. Even if it's delivered, it will be returned!"
After hearing Li Xiumei's words, Lu Yang understood why Li Xiumei was so angry. It turned out that the contract he gave to Tang Shimin had been tricked away by Tang Ziqi and Tang Ziqi. But did they really think the contract was so easy to trick?
"Slap!"
As soon as Lu Yang finished speaking, Li Xiumei slapped him across the face.
"You damn good-for-nothing, you're still lying to me. Tang Ziqi said they never saw the Chairman, only the Chairman's secretary received them!"
Li Xiumei shouted again.
"I know, it was the Chairman's secretary who received them, but the secretary conveyed the Chairman's intentions, and it was very clear. Just wait and see!"
Lu Yang said with a helpless look at Li Xiumei.
"Okay, I'll wait. If they deliver the contract, you get out of here immediately!"
Li Xiumei said, then took her beloved teddy bear and went out for a grooming.
...
The next morning, Tang Zixuan and Tang Ziqi were excitedly rushing to Haitong Group with the sealed contract.
The receptionist at Haitong Group smiled slightly when she saw them walking in, made a phone call, and then invited them to wait in the side reception area.
"Haha, see? Haitong Group people are so polite to us now!"
Tang Zixuan said triumphantly to Tang Ziqi.
"Of course, our Tang family's project is so good, it's Haitong Group flattering our Tang family now, otherwise they wouldn't have been so proactive in drafting the contract and sending it over!"
Tang Ziqi also looked proud.
"Hey, beauty, pour us two cups of tea!"
Tang Zixuan called out to a woman walking towards them.
They had been waiting here for more than half an hour, had drunk four or five cups of tea, but no one had come down.
At this moment, Tang Ziqi went to the restroom, leaving Tang Zixuan alone. Seeing a beautiful woman walking over, he immediately called out.
"What kind of tea do you want to drink?"
The woman walking towards them was Lu Yang's secretary, Wang Kexin. She had already received Lu Yang's order to get rid of these two. Before she could speak, Tang Zixuan directly asked Wang Kexin to pour him tea.
"Whatever, bring out the best tea you have here!"
Tang Zixuan said expansively.
"I'm sorry, the best tea is in our Chairman's office, thirty-eight thousand per liang. I don't think you can afford it."
Wang Kexin said with a smile.
"Who do you look down on? It's just thirty-eight thousand per liang tea, how can I not afford it? I've even drunk tea worth a million per liang!"
"Beauty, perhaps you don't know me yet. I am the eldest son of the Tang family, the future successor of the family head. This time Haitong Group has invested ten billion in our Tang family!"
"Do you know what ten billion means? That's an astronomical figure!"
"I think you look pretty good, why don't you come with me? I guarantee it's more promising than working here!"
Tang Zixuan directly teased Wang Kexin.
"I'm sorry, I'm not interested in you!"
Wang Kexin directly refused.
"Not interested? Let's have a deep exchange in bed, and you'll be interested!"
"If you serve me well, I'll buy you whatever you want. What do you think?"
Tang Zixuan immediately waved the contract in front of the receptionist beauty, looking smug, as if these ten billion had already been put into his pocket.
