Chen Xi was slightly surprised.

"Aren't we here to find evidence?" Tang Hongbo laughed.

"You mean. Someone is working with you? " Chen Xi guessed.

"So you suspect that he is my assistant, and that he is working in cahoots with that person? "This, this is so possible." Chen Xi said in disbelief.

"Is it possible to only know after you ask, and only she is someone close to you, and only you and she can touch the jewelry. Didn't you say that when you asked her to go get the jewelry, there was a sudden blackout?" Tang Hongbo said.

"That's right, but …" Chen Xi was interrupted by Tang Hongbo.

"Alright, don't think too much into it. We'll know when she comes. Let's eat first." Tang Hongbo said.

After a storm of thoughts, Tang Hongbo suddenly laughed in a relaxed manner.

"Xi Xi, the Grandpa Liang's cooking is very delicious. Eat more later."

Chen Xi nodded, as if she was still thinking about Li Wenqi.

"Do you like it here?" Tang Hongbo suddenly asked.

"En, I like it, but why did the Grandpa Liang install a monitor outside the window?" Chen Xi was already interested in monitoring.

Tang Hongbo smiled as he explained.

"Probably to guard against thieves."

"That's true. Otherwise, why would he be pretending to be a monitor?" Chen Xi said to herself.

"No, Grandpa Liang isn't doing this to release normal thieves."

"What do you mean?" Chen Xi did not understand.

"Look here." Tang Hongbo gestured at her to look at the surroundings of the private box.

Then he continued.

"The tables, chairs, screens, as well as the landscape paintings on the walls, including the plates, chopsticks, and teacups in your hands, all of them are priceless."

Chen Xi looked at him in disbelief, knowing that he wasn't lying.

"Isn't, isn't this too exaggerated?" Why are you opening a restaurant when you have so much money? " Chen Xi did not understand, and felt that the rich were truly willful.

"It should be because Grandma Liang has passed away. She was once a master of Chinese painting and was a talented girl. That's why Grandpa Liang also fell in love with collecting antiques and studying ancient literature." Tang Hongbo said softly.

"So that's how it is. Grandpa Liang must really love Grandma Liang." Chen Xi looked envious.

"How do you know?" Tang Hongbo looked at him with a funny expression.

"Look, there are granny Liang's paintings all over the walls and downstairs. Didn't you say that Grandpa Liang came to this restaurant for granny Liang?" Chen Xi said.

Tang Hongbo looked at her with a smile but did not say a word.

Chen Xi was stunned for a moment, and then, avoiding his blazing gaze, he held up a teacup, and coughed concealing his words.

"You said that the items here are priceless. Is that true?"

"Mm, you have enough blue and white porcelain teacups to buy a villa." Tang Hongbo said with a smile.

Chen Xi's hand trembled as he looked at him in disbelief. The teacup fell onto the table and the tea was spilled all over.

"Madam, if you were to break it, the money for my villa would be gone. If you were to break a few more, I would go bankrupt." Tang Hongbo looked at her and couldn't help but tease her.

Chen Xi immediately picked up the teacup and carefully wiped it.

Fortunately, it didn't break.

"So expensive? What if it's broken by a customer? " Chen Xi frowned and asked.

"Little girl, don't listen to this kid's nonsense. This is just an ordinary blue and white porcelain and it's only worth a few hundred yuan." Suddenly, Grandpa Liang appeared at the entrance of the private box, holding two dishes in his hands, he said with a smile.

Several hundred dollars? That's it? This is also very expensive, alright?

"Grandpa Liang." Chen Xi carefully put down the teacup, and then stood up to receive the dish.

"Little girl, this brat only knows how to scare people, ignore him." Old Master Liang pretended to be angry.

Chen Xi smiled and nodded. Then, she inadvertently looked at Tang Hongbo, her eyes filled with words. "You're dead for sure."

Tang Hongbo replied with an apologetic smile, and then changed the topic.

"Grandpa Liang, let's talk while we eat."

"Alright." Old Master Liang replied and sat down.

"Me? Usually no one comes here, so I'm really happy that you guys came today. I got Ah Mu to cook a few more dishes for you guys, and brought them here in a while." Old Master Liang said.

"Isn't it a restaurant?" Chen Xi could not help but be suspicious, why was no one coming?

"In Grandpa Liang, we only receive our best friends. Strangers are not welcome." Tang Hongbo suddenly explained.

So that was the case. No wonder there weren't any customers when they first came in.

"That's true, even a single teacup here is priceless. Even ordinary people would not dare to come here." Chen Xi said softly.

But when the Old Master Liang heard it, he suddenly laughed.

"This little girl is quite interesting. Grandfather, I don't just want teacups, there are also people here." The Old Master Liang laughed.

Chen Xi blushed.

"What do you mean?"

"Because I only entertain important people like you, grandpa." The more Old Master Liang saw, the more he liked Chen Xi.

"Grandpa Liang, can you bring me the surveillance recording of your entrance later?" Tang Hongbo said seriously.

"What's wrong?" Old Master Liang asked.

"It's just that there are some things that need to be investigated thoroughly."

"If you didn't mention it, I would have forgotten. What was that fake jewelry news?" Old Master Liang suddenly became serious.

"It's nothing." Tang Hongbo said casually.

"A small matter? What if everyone knew about it? "Your dad has been calling me to complain these past few days. I haven't had the time to call you yet." Old Master Liang said.

"Don't bother with him, my father. He will make a big fuss over nothing and I can take care of it." Tang Hongbo said.

"You father and son. Sigh, forget it, I won't say anymore. However, this matter must be handled properly. Once it is used by someone, the consequences will be unimaginable." Old Master Liang said seriously.

"Yeah, I know."

"As a shareholder of the company, feel free to tell grandpa if you need anything." The Old Master Liang laughed.

"Alright."

Chen Xi was surprised, so the old man was actually a shareholder in the company.

Tang Hongbo looked at Old Master Liang and said while Chen Xi was in the bathroom.

"Grandpa Liang, you can ask me whatever you want." Tang Hongbo said everything he knew.

"Kid, let me ask you, is the designer who is spreading rumors in this company this little girl?" Old Master Liang pretended to be serious and disgusting.

"Yes." Tang Hongbo answered in a calm and steady manner.

"The girl you like?"

"Yes."

Seeing his resolute and serious look, Old Master Liang could only reply.

"It's good that you know it yourself. Three years ago, I met this girl at your grandfather's funeral. I didn't expect that you would really be able to find her." Old Master Liang shook his head and laughed.

"Of course. All my life, I've only wished that she was my wife." Tang Hongbo's voice became gentle.

"Your temperament is truly unlike that of your father's. However, to you, this little girl is a blessing and a curse. Have you thought it through clearly?" Old Master Liang looked at him and asked seriously.

"No, she is not my disaster, I am her disaster. But even so, I have never intended to let go. Grandpa Liang, don't worry." Tang Hongbo said indifferently.

"Alright, I won't worry about that. You have your own ideas, and I'll take care of this matter as soon as I can. If things go south, I'll leave it to you..."

"Grandpa Liang, like I said, I won't touch them, and I don't want to have anything to do with them. Although I'm not a good person, I still have my principles and bottom line. Tang Hongbo suddenly interrupted the Old Master Liang's words with a straight face.

"Sigh ~ Alright, I know that you don't want to get involved with them, but I heard that A Xu has returned, right?" Old Master Liang asked.

Tang Hongbo nodded.

"I heard that your father wanted A Xu to take his place. What do you think?" Old Master Liang asked.

"It doesn't matter to me who he wants to take on. As long as we're still the same as before, we don't get involved in each other's business and have nothing to do with each other." Tang Hongbo said expressionlessly.

Old Master Liang looked at him and felt very gratified in his heart. All along, all the people in charge of the Tang Family had been friends, with their own blood flowing through their hands and feet. But in Tang Hongbo's generation, he had a completely different path.

Old Master Liang originally thought that he wouldn't let this brother Tang Weixu go, but he never thought that he wouldn't do that.

Ever since he was young, the Tang Clan had clearly taught him to be the successor to the President of the Tang Family, but had secretly raised him to be the successor to the Dark Faction.

When they handed him a gun and told him to kill the nurse who took care of him, he swore he would never go that way.

And he had done it.

Since the age of eighteen, he had been cautious and plotted against people's hearts. Eventually, he changed his fate.

Those who had retired from the Tang clan would enter that organization, but he would not spare them a glance.

Those things that the Tang clan could not do on the surface and could not be exposed to the light would flow into the dark organization and be secretly handled by them.

They were a large and mysterious gang. Most of their ways of making money were unshakable. Then, the Tang clan would clean up the money.

It was clear that they had no relationship with the Tang clan. They were safe and sound, but in reality, they were the shadow of the Tang clan.

But ever since Tang Hongbo had ascended to the top, it had clearly forbidden all communication with them.

This meant that he didn't need this sort of shadow, and he had kept his word. He had gradually cut off all relations with that side over the years. If it wasn't for the old tutor mentioning him, he probably would have already forgotten about it.

"Don't bring it up again in the future. I'm only the president of the Tang clan. As for those dirty things, I don't want to hear any more."
