3427 The Tang Family’s Story
At noon after school, Leng Xiaoyao saw a call from the principal and also saw a message from Li Mochen. After learning about Tang Ning’s condition from Li Mochen’s message, Leng Xiaoyao didn’t bother to reply to the principal’s call.
Leng Xiaoyao was also angry about Tang Ning being bullied, but since Li Mochen had already dealt with it, there was nothing else she could do.
When Tang Xing came home at noon, he saw his injured sister. Although he felt distressed, he was very calm.
Because they had relied on each other for three years, they had already lost count of how many times they had been injured by other kids in the alley.
Besides, Tang Ning was fine. She just needed to rest, but Tang Xing would still stay with his sister until it was time to go to school.
In the afternoon, Tang Ning’s condition had improved, so after the home tutors arrived, they could start studying.
Because Leng Xiaoyao usually arrived home at 6:30 pm, she had instructed Tong Xianglan to start dinner at 6 pm and let them start studying at 6:30 pm. She only needed to leave a serving for her.
However, Leng Xiaoyao had something to do with Li Mochen this afternoon, so they didn’t return home after school.
Because Li Mochen had already found out something about the Tang family and wanted to tell Leng Xiaoyao, he went directly to Leng Xiaoyao’s school to pick her up. Then they went to the No.1 Hospital of the Capital City.
It turned out that Tang Ning’s uncle was indeed responsible for his parents’ accident.
Tang Xing’s uncle wasn’t the biological son of Tang Xing’s grandfather, and was instead his younger brother’s child. However, because his younger brother’s family had an accident and the couple died, Tang Xing’s uncle was adopted by Old Master Tang.
Although the Tang family wasn’t among the third-rate rich families, it was also a family with billions of yuan in assets
Old Master Tang had one daughter and two sons. His daughter, Tang Yue, disappeared at the age of fifteen.
His second son, Tang Heng, was the father of Tang Xing and Tang Ning.
His third son, Tang Fei, drowned when he was only a kid.
Tang Lei was two years younger than Tang Heng, and he came to the Tang family when he was twelve years old. The Tang family had never broken up, and Old Master Tang and his wife treated Tang Lei kindly. Therefore, even if he got married, he still stayed in the Tang family. Old Master Tang even gave him 10% of the shares of the Tang Corporation, and allowed him to hold an important position in the company.
Even to the outside world, not many people knew that Tang Lei wasn’t Old Master Tang’s biological son, because the Tang family hadn’t made it public.
Even Tang Heng treated Tang Lei as if he were his own younger brother, because both his sister and younger brother were gone. There was only a younger brother like Tang Lei with him. It was impossible for Tang Heng to treat Tang Lei badly.
The main reason was that Tang Lei was very good at being a good person on the surface. He usually didn’t fight for or grab anything from other people. He was also considerate and no one could see his ambition. That was the reason why Tang Heng was easily trapped by him.
As an outsider, Tang Lei had enough things in the Tang family, but none of these could satisfy him. He wanted more.
He knew that he was only an adopted son, but since the Tang family had adopted him and promised to treat him as their own son, why was there such a big difference in the company’s shares?
He wasn’t convinced. Therefore, he accumulated power and finally became strong.
About three years ago, Tang Lei took action, bribed people around Tang Heng and turned Old Master Tang into a vegetable, then blamed Tang Heng for it.
Before doing all of this, Tang Lei was fully-prepared, such as having proof of Tang Heng’s motive for attacking Old Master Tang.
Tang Lei forged a will that showed that he was to inherit the Tang Corporation, then said that Tang Heng saw this will and was so angry that he attacked Old Master Tang, causing him to become a vegetable.
Tang Lei originally wanted to kill Old Master Tang, but he was unlucky. Old Master Tang didn’t die and became a vegetable.
At this time, Old Master Tang could no longer threaten Tang Lei, so Tang Lei didn’t take action again. Instead, he acted like a filial son. Therefore, his reputation was still good in front of outsiders.
As a result, no matter how Tang Heng explained, it was useless.
Tang Lei was aware that Tang Heng was capable. As long as he had time, he would eventually overturn the case. Therefore, shortly after driving Tang Heng to the old house, he arranged for someone to burn the old house down and kill them.
Tang Lei also knew that Tang Xing and Tang Ning weren’t burned to death, but they were just two children. He didn’t care about them and didn’t think that they knew it was done by him.
After Li Mochen and Leng Xiaoyao finished talking about these things, they arrived at the No.1 Hospital of the Capital City.
Why did they come to the No.1 Hospital of the Capital City? Because Old Master Tang was in this hospital.
Tang Lei hated Old Master Tang, so he didn’t want him to stay at home. He spent money to let him live in the hospital and hired someone to take care of him.
To avoid the danger of Old Master Tang waking up, he also came to check on him from time to time.
“The current evidence isn’t enough to prove Tang Lei’s guilt. The best way is to wake up Old Master Tang,” Li Mochen said. Although they had found some of Tang Lei’s dirty secrets, the evidence was insufficient.
“Then let’s try to pour some magical power into grandpa and see if we can repair his body,” Leng Xiaoyao said. The effect of magical power was great, but it wasn’t omnipotent. Therefore, it could be tried, but there was only a 5% chance of success.
However, 5% was still a lot. Even if others only had 2% or 3%, they would try their best to awaken the vegetative person.
Leng Xiaoyao and Li Mochen easily arrived outside Old Master Tang’s ward. There was no one in the ward because it was just a vegetable. It didn’t need someone to watch over him all the time. Checking a few times a day was enough.
Before entering the room, Leng Xiaoyao used her magical power to check if there were any monitors or recording pens in the room.
After confirming that there were none, Leng Xiaoyao and Li Mochen sneaked into the room smoothly without being discovered.
Then Li Mochen checked Old Master Tang’s body with his magical senses and found that the main reason was the blood clot in his brain. As long as this blood clot was cleared, Old Master Tang might wake up.
Li Mochen covered Old Master Tang’s head with his hand and poured magical power into his body.
After the magical power entered his brain, the blood clot changed and became smaller.
Unfortunately, because Old Master Tang wasn’t only old, but also in a coma, the speed of absorbing magical power was too slow. Li Mochen couldn’t put too much magical power into Old Master Tang’s body because Old Master Tang wouldn’t be able to bear it.
After that was done, they left.
However, Leng Xiaoyao wasn’t very happy about that. After leaving the hospital, Leng Xiaoyao said to Li Mochen, “Brother Mochen, can you find two people with strong hidden abilities to guard him? To prevent the hospital from telling Tang Lei when my grandfather gets better. My grandfather might be harmed by him again.”
“Sure, I’ll deal with it.” Li Mochen replied. He had that idea as well before Leng Xiaoyao said anything.
“Thank you, Brother Mochen.” Leng Xiaoyao thanked him. He had helped her so much recently.
