Dark sugar is hard to prevent

Chapter 17

The car drove out of the old community where Tang Xi'en was located.

Along the way, Fu Shiyu closed his eyes to rest.

Lu Hang, who was driving, peeked at him through the rearview mirror from time to time, and when he was approaching the apartment, he finally couldn't help asking: "Director Fu, there is something I have been wondering about."

"Say."

"You are clearly not responsible for Lawyer Tang's injury at your house, so why do you respond to her rude demands?"

Lu Hang felt sorry for his own boss, he was so busy that he didn't have time to eat or sleep, yet he was distracted to accompany Tang Xi'en.

"Lu Hang," the man's voice was low and tired, "She won't get the blueprint for a day, and she won't stop for a day. Do you think I'll let her get over the matter of her injury, and she will be honest?"

"Since a design drawing can solve the problem, it's not easy. I asked the design department to give you a drawing in a few days, and you can give it to her directly. Isn't that all right?"

Fu Shiyu rubbed his swollen eyebrows, "Do you think all she wants is a picture?"

……

Tang Xi'en slept until noon and didn't get up again.

The strange thing is that after waking up today, my mood is not as cheerful as it was a few days ago, but instead I feel a sense of guilt in my heart.

Thinking about it, it was because of poverty that I felt uncomfortable when I didn’t have a job.

She called Li Tao, who was far away in the UK, and lied that things in her hometown would take two months to deal with. It was too boring to stay during this time, and she wanted to accept some paperwork that did not require going to court.

Li Tao was probably busy, and he simply cared about what happened to her family, but after being evaded by her with a few words, he asked her to go directly to his secretary.

Li Tao's secretary, Ning Lan, had been in business with Tang Xi'en, and they were fairly familiar with each other. Tang Xi'en thought there was nothing wrong, so after hanging up the phone, he dialed Ning Lan directly.

She gave Ning Lan the address of her home, and asked the other party to arrange a courier as soon as possible to send the materials she wanted.

Unexpectedly, Ning Lan personally helped her deliver the documents to the apartment after get off work.

Seeing Tang Xien's surprise, Ning Lan explained with a smile: "I see that the address you gave, Mr. Tang, is near the law firm. Why don't you just deliver it for you after get off work, so as to save the company some delivery fees!"

As she said that, Ning Lan's eyes drifted to Tang Xi'en's right leg which was sealed with plaster.

Tang Xi'en knew that he couldn't hide it, so he said: "As you can see, my leg was injured, so I asked for leave for two months."

"Does Li Par know?"

"I know I'm asking for leave, but I don't know it's so detailed." Tang Xi'en paused, and then added, "Don't mention it to him, he's also very busy."

Ning Lan made an OK gesture, and her eyes drifted to the uncooked food on the table.

Seeing this, Tang Xien casually said politely: "Have you had dinner? Do you want to eat here before leaving?"

She was just being polite, but Ning Lan just agreed.

During the meal, Ning Lan brought breaking news: "Tang Lu, Li Par is divorcing Mrs. Li."

Tang Xi'en was stunned for a moment when he was holding up the water glass to drink water.

Ning Lan lowered her voice and said, "It's true. Li Par has been in contact with Lawyer Zhuo who is the most powerful divorce case in the Family Affairs Department recently, and he wants me to help him contact a real estate appraiser..."

"..."

After his brain returned to normal operation, Tang Xi'en took a sip of water and said calmly, "You must not go out and talk about such things."

"Hey, how can it be! I'll just chat with you. By the way, you have been with Li Par for so many years, and you always hear some gossip between their husband and wife?"

Tang Xien suppressed the impatience in his eyes, and said in a cold and serious tone, "I don't know about Li Par's private affairs, but we know about the same about official affairs."

"Really." Ning Lan shrugged and didn't ask any more questions.

Everyone was thinking about the meal, and when Ning Lan got up to leave, Tang Xi'en was still a little out of shape.

Aunt Wang, who had already seen that the atmosphere was not right, echoed: "Lawyer Tang went to bed early at night recently, and usually has already rested at this point, so today she seems not in a good mood. I will send Miss Ning out."

Ning Lan nodded, put on her shoes in the entrance, turned around and took a deep look at Tang Xi'en who was sitting in the dining room.

Aunt Wang went to open the door, and when she saw the tall man standing outside, she immediately called out respectfully: "Mr. Fu, you are here."
