258 Took The Blame

“I swear to you that everything I’m telling you now is true. I’ll definitely do what I promised you.” Faced with the assistant’s confirmation again and again, Tang Li did not show any impatience. After all, anyone would feel uneasy about this matter. The assistant’s actions confirmed her determination to make this choice.

“Alright, President Tang. I promise you that I can take the blame for the company.”

In the end, after the two sides agreed on all the conditions, Tang Li first asked her assistant to go home and explain everything. Then, she turned around and returned to her room to find Tang Xia.

“Father, I’ve already settled the follow-up to this matter.” A relaxed expression could be seen between Tang Li’s eyebrows. “The assistant has already agreed that she will take full responsibility for this matter. The condition is that you try your best to reduce the time she spends in prison and give her a billion yuan as a reward after she’s released from prison. Compared to the conditions Shan Yue has offered, this is already the best choice. It only needs a billion yuan to settle all the troubles that Shan Yue has meticulously planned.”

“It’s best if it can be resolved. You must arrange everything after this. You can’t leave anything out.” Tang Xia let out a long sigh when he found out that there was a solution. His suppressed mood was temporarily relieved. “I hope this can teach you a lesson after this incident. Just because you’re lucky once and can find a scapegoat doesn’t mean you can be lucky every time. In the future, you can’t touch anything related to smuggling firearms. Once I find out again, not to mention waiting for the law to punish you, even I won’t let you off easily.”

“I understand, Father. I’ve already learned my lesson. I’ll definitely manage Tang Corps properly in the future and won’t do anything illegal again.”

Tang Xia sat on the sofa beside him. “I hope you remember what you said. Go back to the company early tomorrow. Be quiet for the time being. When this lawsuit is over, it’ll be our turn to fight back.”

That night, many people were destined to not be able to calm down.

The assistant returned home and prepared everything after she was imprisoned. In order not to show any abnormal emotions in front of her parents, she did not stay long and rushed back to the Tang Corporation overnight.

At this moment, Shan Yue thought that everything was going smoothly according to her plan. She did not know that the entire matter had already deviated from the plan and was developing in an uncontrollable direction.

On the third day, just as Shan Yue was feeling a little puzzled, Chang Ling pushed the door open and entered. “President Shan, according to your instructions, I’ve been sending people to keep an eye on the entrance of the Tang Corporation recently. Tang Li has been going to and from work as usual for the past three days without any abnormal actions. The docks for smuggling firearms have also stopped. All the merchant ships have become proper goods.”

“What about Tang Xia?”

Chang Ling frowned and lowered his head slightly. “We also have someone in charge of keeping an eye on the Tang family. Tang Xia has never left the house for the past three days. Other than the day the father and daughter met at night three days ago, the two sides have never seen each other again.”

“Alright, I understand. You guys have worked hard. You can leave first.”

After Chang Ling left, Shan Yue began to pace back and forth in the office. After knowing this news, she realized that the reason why Tang Xia could not contact her for three days was not because he could keep his composure, but because things were out of her control.

Since Tang Xia dared not to return the evidence, it meant that he definitely had a way to deal with it.

In order to take the absolute initiative in the entire matter, Shan Yue had to figure out what made Tang Xia, who had always been famous for his integrity, so calm in the face of evidence of his daughter’s smuggling. Something unexpected must have happened to turn him into this.

After some consideration, she decided to take the initiative to call Tang Xia. While she was thinking, the phone in her hand had already been dialed.

“Hey, Uncle Tang, I think three days is enough.” Shan Yue’s attitude was still very polite. “What do you think about the deal between me and you?”
