Chapter 113 : Qi Yihan brought gifts
Tang Zitong smiled awkwardly and said to Tang Li, “Cousin, don’t listen to their nonsense. They don’t know anything.”
Tang Li tilted her head to look at her before looking at her two cousin brothers.
Tang Ze was about the same age as Qi Yihan. He had inherited his father’s strictness, and he looked especially smart and capable wearing a pair of glasses.
“Fourth sister, we used your money to buy that piece of land without your knowledge. I know you must be very angry.”
Tang Ze obviously knew why his father and second uncle called Tang Li into the study. He said, “This matter is set in stone. The value of that piece of land is really high. When the time comes, we will be able to earn a lot. We also found a lawyer to write down the agreement for the dividends. Don’t worry, we won’t take anything from you and Third Uncle.”
Before Tang Li could say anything, Tang Zitong said in surprise, “Did Father and Second Uncle use Cousin’s money?”
Tang Zitong was not aware of what happened in the study because girls in the Tang family were not allowed to get involved in business.
No one answered Tang Zitong. Tang Lei also said to Tang Li, “Fourth Sister, you’re always indecisive. If we really asked you for your permission in advance, you definitely wouldn’t agree. But have you thought about it? If your husband doesn’t give you pocket money one day and you squander what belongs to you again, what will you do?”
Hearing that, Tang Li smiled. There was nothing she could do now since the deal was already sealed.
However, they would soon regret having bought that piece of land.
Tang Li sat there without saying anything and took out her phone to look.
The three people in the living room thought that she was throwing a tantrum at them. Tang Ze and Tang Lei looked at each other. They did not know what to say to their sister, who had not been close to them since they were young, so they stood up and went out to welcome Qi Yihan.
Only when Tang Zitong sat down beside Tang Li and took a deep breath did she ask her cautiously, “Cousin, are you very angry?”
“No, I am not,” Tang Li said calmly. Tang Zitong did not believe that she was not angry.
Tang Li was really not angry. In any case, she did not think the Host and her father’s shares were hers. She just felt that the Tang family was too easy to fool. No wonder they had become poorer and poorer over the years. Their family was not suitable for the real estate business.
She switched on her phone and found that Su Ziqing had sent her some messages, so she clicked on it.
Su Ziqing, “How is Uncle Qi now? What have you been doing recently? Why are you not replying to my messages?”
Su Ziqing, “Didn’t you agree to ask your husband if he is free so that we can have a meal together? Did he not agree to come out at all?”
As soon as Tang Li saw this, she saw a head reaching over. “Cousin, what are you looking at?”
Tang Zitong glanced at Tang Li’s phone and found that it was from her cousin from her mother’s side, so she said sourly, “As expected, you are closer to other cousins.”
Tang Li glanced at her.
Tang Zitong said to her, “Can we be a bit closer?”
Tang Li asked her, “Do we have anything in common?”
“Well…” Tang Zitong was struck dumb for a second.
She thought about it and said with a smile, “We didn’t have anything in common before, but I will try to find some in the future. You’re so awesome, so you’ll be my idol from now on. Even when no one believes you, I will believe you.”
Looking at Tang Zitong, Tang Li smiled and said, “Ziqing is already an exchange student at Imperial University.”
“Really?” Tang Zitong was surprised. “When are you going to ask her out? We can hang out together sometimes.”
Su Ziqing had never been to the Imperial Capital, so Tang Zitong had never seen her in person. But since they were related through Tang Li, Tang Zitong was looking forward to becoming friends with Tang Li’s cousin.
Tang Li replied casually and went back to her phone to reply, “I don’t have time recently.”
Su Ziqing replied very quickly, “Is Qi Yihan’s father…”
Tang Li, “No, he’s undergoing treatment recently.”
Su Ziqing, “That’s good.”
At that moment, Tang Zitong urged Tang Li, “Cousin, give me your cousin’s WeChat so I can get to know her first.”
Tang Li glanced at her and replied, “My second cousin wants your WeChat. Do you want me to tell her that?”
Su Ziqing, “Are you with the Tang family?”
Tang Li, “Yes.”
After a while, Su Ziqing replied, “Sure.”
Tang Li sent Su Ziqing’s WeChat message to Tang Zitong.
Tang Zitong quickly took out her phone to add Su Ziqing and started chatting with Su Ziqing immediately.
Tang Li was once surprised by how social Tang Zitong was.
The two of them sat in the living room for a while before Tang Li received a message from Qi Yihan.
She clicked on it.
Qi Yihan, “I’ll be there in ten minutes.”
Looking at the message, Tang Li couldn’t help but smirk. Apparently, she had in some way tamed her wild husband who would never send her messages before.
Tang Li put away her phone and asked Tang Zitong, who was still chatting with Su Ziqing, “Everyone is outside. Are you going out too?”
“I am going out too.” Tang Zitong stood up and walked out with Tang Li. As they walked, she said to her happily, “Cousin, I think this cousin of yours is very interesting. She knows a lot about you. I told her that you’re very capable and that you and your husband are very close now. She even believed me.”
At this point, Tang Zitong was a little touched. “Finally, someone believes me.”
Tang Li was speechless.
Qi Yihan said he would be there in ten minutes, and he arrived at the Tang family mansion in exactly ten minutes.
When he got out of the car, First Uncle and Second Uncle were so excited that their faces turned red.
Although the two of them really wanted to ask Qi Yihan about that piece of land, they remembered how cold he was to their family previously and resisted the urge. The two of them planned to find a suitable opportunity to ask.
However, to their surprise, after Qi Yihan got out of the car, he walked up to Tang Li and asked, “I’m not late, am I?”
Everyone was struck dumb.
Tang Li shook her head. “No, the dinner hasn’t begun.”
Qi Yihan nodded and said to the bodyguards behind him, “Take the gifts in.”
Then, as the Tang family was dumbstruck, the bodyguards behind Qi Yihan brought a few gifts to the Tang villa.
Tang Zitong was the only one in the family who remained calm and said politely, “Brother-in-law, why bother yourself to buy all these gifts? The fact that you are willing to come is good enough.”
Qi Yihan replied, “It’s nothing.”
After saying that, he looked at Tang Li like he was asking if she was satisfied with what he did.
The others also looked at Tang Li.
After Tang Li married Qi Yihan, Qi Yihan had come to the Tang family only once because of the wedding. After that, Qi Yihan stopped coming.
Tang Li didn’t know how to handle that situation, so she said, “Let’s go. Dinner should be ready soon..”
