The security guards standing outside the Tang Family villa stopped Shangxin.
“Sorry, you cannot enter!”
Shangxin stared blankly.
The assistant who had taken her back, took a step forward and chided them, “Are all of you blind? Miss Shangxin had been residing here for so long, and yet none of you can even remember her. Step aside!”
The assistant thought that the security guards would let them pass after he finished speaking. However, none of them budged at all.
All of them revealed a look of dilemma.
Then, they braced themselves and said, “We have been instructed to stop Miss Shangxin from entering.”
“Nonsense! President Tang is still in the hospital, who would dare to order all of you…”
Before the assistant could finish his sentence, a few nicely dressed folks walked out of the Tang Family villa.
They snickered out loud when they heard what he had said.
One of the middle-aged ladies amongst the group walked forward and said, “Oh, Xiaoma, I haven’t seen you for quite some time and it seems like your aura is about to match up to that of Yuansi’s. Those who were unaware would have assumed that you are the Young Master of the Tang Family!”
“…”
Stunned, the assistant bowed respectfully after he saw the people in front of him.
“Second Master, Second Madam, Third Master, Third Madam.”
They were Tang Yuansi’s second and third uncles and aunties.
They were the people who had brought Tang Yuansi back to the Tang Family when Tang Yuansi’s parents were critically ill back then.
At that time, when Tang Yuansi’s parents were critically ill, the Tang Corporation was in imminent danger as well.
The uncles of the Tang Family had allowed Tang Yuansi into the Tang Corporation solely because of his adoptive parents; they had wanted to ride on their power and influence to revive the Tang Family.
No one had taken Tang Yuansi, the nephew, who was brought home out of nowhere with a heart disease, seriously.
However, the unexpected thing was that not only had the Tang Corporation revived from the dead under Tang Yuansi’s leadership, but its business also became more prosperous with each passing day as well…
By the time they detected a crisis, all of the important positions in the Tang Corporation were already helmed by people who stood on Tang Yuansi’s side.
Furthermore, Tang Yuansi’s ability in managing business left everyone speechless despite being a man of few words. As such, other stakeholders of the company would definitely not allow the members of the Tang Family to take him away.
Even though the uncles and aunties were unreconciled to this arrangement, they took the money as well as their distant relationship with Tang Yuansi into account and dared not push their way through things.
They had not meddled much with the company’s matters for the past few years; they had behaved themselves and lead luxurious lifestyles with their generous dividends.
No one had never expected them to appear at this point.
When Shangxin heard that the people in front of her were Tang Yuansi’s relatives, she greeted them by nodding her head slightly out of courtesy.
The second auntie was the first to speak up. As she studied her from head to toe, she scoffed and said, “I was wondering which outstanding woman Yuans had taken a liking to, so much so that he had treated her as a gem by stashing her away in his villa and refusing to let us take a look at her. I had never expected her to be an empty vessel with pretty looks; had she thought that she could marry into the Tang Family and become a Young Mistress simply with those good looks? Let me advise you, you should give up on this idea right now!”
Shangxin knitted her brows. Before she could speak, the assistant had already exclaimed.
“Second Madam, Miss Shangxin is someone whom President Tang loves with all his heart. She is also pregnant with his child right now…”
“Shut up! You are merely a servant, and you are not in the position to interrupt when your masters are speaking. Yuansi did not tell us about it, but don’t assume that we don’t know this woman is merely a model. She is useless apart from giggling and flirting with men. How could such a person be in a position to be pregnant with Yuansi’s child? Who could know the identity of her child since she is just another woman from the entertainment industry? She might have insisted that her child was Yuansi’s just for money!”
