Chapter 89 Holding On Tight

inked her big eyes, "Can I""Sure."He also wanted to meet Mu Xing's master sooner."Ah... Uncle, you're so good to me."Mu Xing stretched out her hands to hug the man's arm, her small face rubbing agains...Tianhong Group worked all night and into the morning.

In the conference room, a group of high-level executives stood in silence, their heads bowed, the atmosphere heavy with tension.

Tang Tianhong sat in the main seat, his face impassive as he scanned the room. "Trash! With so many of you, not a single workable solution can be thought of. What use are you to me!"

"I'll give you one more hour. If you still can't come up with a solution, all of you get the hell out!"

High-ranking officials looked at each other in astonishment.

The group's situation is deteriorating day by day. It was barely holding on thanks to its relationship with Fu Lingxiao, but now that connection has also been severed. With their lifeline cut off, the company is running out of time and they simply don't have the power to turn things around.

The cell phone's ringtone suddenly rang out, a jarring and piercing sound in the silent meeting.

Tang Tianhong irritably picked up his phone. Tang Ruowan's anxious voice came through: "Dad! Yingying hasn't come back all night, and her phone is unanswered. I called her friends, but no one knows where she is. Could something have happened to her"

Tang Tianhong was incredibly agitated. His company was in utter chaos, and his family wasn't making things any easier either!

"Understood, I'll send someone to look for them!"

After hanging up the phone, he sent his assistant to find out Tang Yingying's whereabouts.

At this time.

Tang Yingying had already been sent to the police station by Shen Lue. After being tormented by the drug's effects all night, she was completely drained and collapsed on a bench in the detention room.

Shen Yue presented the related evidence to the director and, after conveying Fu Lingxiao's meaning, left.

The Chief still remembers Tang Yingying, this woman who entered the palace as a concubine. Last time she was also sent in by Master Fu. Anyone who offends Master Fu, he naturally wouldn't dare to "neglect".

When Tang Tianhong's assistant found out where Tang Yingying was, she was already in prison.

There are a lot of things going on with the Tianhong Group, and Tang Tianhong is completely swamped. He couldn't spare any time to deal with Tang Yingying, so he sent an assistant to the prison to bail her out, but they couldn't even see Tang Yingying's face.

The assistant was helpless and could only go back to report to Tang Tianhong. Tang Tianhong was furious and called the warden, only to learn that his precious daughter had been sent in by Fu Lingxiao.

The moment before, Tang Tianhong was furious beyond measure, but in an instant he wilted like a flower deprived of water, his anger vanishing without a trace.

This conceited little wretch!

How did you end up provoking that living King of Hell again!

The warden also told him that Tang Yingying's this time was a big deal. If Fu Lingxiao didn't loosen his lips, Tang Yingying's only end would be to rot in prison.

Tang Tianhong knew Fu Lingxiao fairly well. Although Fu Lingxiao was decisive and ruthless in his actions, he never stooped to petty revenge. What on earth had his precious daughter done to provoke such a drastic response from him!

Could the sudden release of that statement also be related to this matter

He didn't dare to rashly go to Fu Lingxiao to plead for mercy. He could only first send his assistant to secretly investigate the ins and outs of the matter.

When the rest of the Tang family learned that Tang Yingying had been imprisoned, they were all in a panic, especially Mrs. Tang Liang Hui, who was so worried she cried non-stop.

"Mr. Fu, how could he be so cruel He first ruined your reputation and then sent Yingying to prison. Your father said that we are not allowed to visit her in prison, and I don't know how she's doing now..."

Tang Ruowan also didn't expect that Fu Lingxiao would suddenly release that statement of clarification. He had always been dismissive of explaining these things.

Actually, she had thought about this day coming long ago. She thought it would be liberation, but when it actually arrived, she only felt embarrassed. The first lady of the imperial capital was now a laughingstock.

Tang Ruowan lowered her head in silence.

Tang Xiner's face was also very ugly, Fu Lingxiao that dog man!

After bullying her elder sister and now her younger sister, he treats the Tang family like pushovers. Even if she still has feelings for him, she'll make him pay for these two wrongs!

But the most urgent thing is to save her sister first.

"Mom, don't worry. I'll go find someone and figure something out."

Tang Xiner comforted Liang Hui with a few words, then got up and went back to her room to call a man who was pursuing her.

The man's name was Sheng Zikai. He was a well-known figure in his circle, and most importantly, he had business dealings with Fu Lingxiao, so their relationship was relatively good and he should be able to speak up.

Sheng Zikuan received a call and learned that Tang Xiner was looking for him to plead with Fu Lingxiao. He immediately declined, saying, "I'm sorry, Xiaoran, Mr. Fu and I only have business dealings and no personal relationship. I can't help you."

He did like Tang Xiner, that much was true. But now the Tang family was in turmoil, who knows when they might go bankrupt And that Master Fu hated people begging for favors the most.

As clever as he was, how could he possibly offend the most powerful being in the Imperial City for a woman

Tang Xinran didn't expect that the man who always said he loved her dearly would be unwilling to help at a critical moment. She was so angry that she hung up the phone directly.

Just as she was getting increasingly agitated, a mysterious phone call suddenly came in...

- Mu Xing woke up when it was the morning of the second day.

She slowly opened her eyes, and what met her gaze was a pristine white ceiling. This was clearly not her room.

Where is she

As soon as I turned my head, I saw that familiar cold and stern face.

Mu Xing wanted to call him, but she found her throat was dry and hoarse, unable to speak at all. She could only stare at him.

His eyes were bloodshot, with dark circles under them. A greenish stubble had sprouted on his chin, making him look rather haggard. The creases in his well-tailored suit betrayed the stress he was under, but it still shimmered with an undeniable allure, captivatingly handsome despite the wear and tear.

Fu Lingxiao hadn't slept all night, staying by Mu Xing's side the entire time. Seeing her finally wake up, a few hints of a smile appeared on his gloomy face. He reached out and touched Mu Xing's forehead, checking her temperature. The fever had broken, and the redness on her face had disappeared.

After a night of furrowed brows, he finally relaxed them, touching the little girl's cheek with his rough voice: "Do you feel any discomfort anywhere"

Mùxīng smiled and shook her head, pointing to the smart water bottle on the bedside table.

She was so thirsty and her throat hurt.

Fu Lingxiao immediately poured a glass of water and held the little girl in his arms, carefully feeding her.

Mu Xing took her small hand and held the water cup, gulping down the water with a contented smile. She licked her lips sweetly at the man.

At that moment, she suddenly realized she was leaning against her little uncle's chest!

She hurriedly wriggled out of the man's arms and quickly moved back, her mind fixated on keeping distance from her uncle. She didn't even notice that she had moved to the edge of the bed.

As the little girl was about to fall off the bed, Fu Lingxiao stretched out his arm, grabbed her arm, and pulled her back into his arms.

In order to mend his image in the little girl's eyes, he had decided to stop forcing her into hugs. But when that soft little body came crashing into him, all of his willpower crumbled.

He couldn't let go.

He just wanted to hold this little thing tighter, tighter!

"Uncle, you're holding me too tight... I can't breathe..."

The man's arms were too strong, as if they would crush her.

Fu Lingxiao immediately loosened his grip, placing his big hand on Mu Xing's back of the head and gently rubbing it.
