She rushed to Tang Xiaohua in a few steps,
"You, you, you’re not dead!"
Song Xiangqiao’s behavior successfully caught the attention of everyone present, including Wen Liangyu and Bai Cangqiong.
Tang Xiaohua furrowed her brows, her face a picture of confusion.
This expression... made Song Xiangqiao feel very unfamiliar.
She uttered her name, her face filled with shock and panic.
"Madam, my name is Tang Xiaohua. You have the wrong person,"
Tang Xiaohua explained.
Song Xiangqiao hurriedly grabbed Tang Xiaohua’s face with one hand, as if trying to tear off that mask!
Tang Xiaohua narrowed her eyes and grabbed Song Xiangqiao’s wrist,
Tang Xiaohua pinched just right, causing Song Xiangqiao pain enough to loosen her grip.
"Lady, please show some self-respect."
Tang Xiaohua shrugged off Song Xiangqiao’s hand and said indifferently.
"Vice President, aren’t you going to do something?"
Wen Nian didn’t even turn his head, only listened to the commotion behind him, his amber-colored eyes landing on Zhuo Ting.
Song Xiangqiao’s breakdown made Zhuo Ting’s face turn sour.
He took a deep breath,
"Xiangqiao, come back and sit down, the banquet is about to start."
"Impossible, impossible..."
Song Xiangqiao also knew she was behaving irrationally at the moment.
For three years, no one knew the pain and difficulties she had been through.
Left with no other options, she chose an old man thirty years her senior as her protector and managed to withstand Wen Nian’s revenge!
She forged her heart into steel, capable of facing any situation with a calm and composed demeanor.
But there was a thorn in her heart — Song Lili!
Song Lili had died, and even though it had cost her dearly, she felt it was worth it!
Who is this woman, cut from the same mold as Song Lili!
How could she calm down?!
"She is called Tang Xiaohua, attached to the Police Department, now my personal bodyguard."
Wen Nian spoke, as if explaining to Song Xiangqiao, but actually, his gaze was fixed on Wen Liangyu.
Wen Liangyu squinted his eyes, he saw that face that looked just like Song Lili’s, then looked at Wen Nian, his grandson who was completely out of his control!
"The Police Department has nobody else, they send a woman to be your personal bodyguard?"
"It wasn’t the Police Department’s assignment, I chose her."
Wen Nian picked up his wine glass, swirled the liquid, with a gentle smile on his face, seeing Wen Liangyu’s green expression made his mood very good.
"Grandfather, don’t you think she looks quite special? Reminds you of someone incredibly... similar?"
"Xiaonian, you’re not so childish as to find such a stand-in to provoke your grandfather, are you?"
Wen Liangyu was an old ginger, not easily manipulated by Wen Nian’s petty tricks.
"But grandfather really didn’t expect, after such a long time, that you’re still upset with grandfather... Xiao Li died in an accidental incident, the Song Family took Xiao Li’s body back, and grandfather saw it too, it was also hard for me, knowing you and Xiao Li were childhood sweethearts, but... the deceased is gone. How long are you going to hold this grudge against grandfather?"
Tang Xiaohua paused for a moment.
How could there be a body?
There were only her and the driver in the car at that time. After she got out, there was just the driver left, even if there was a body, it couldn’t possibly be hers.
It was a very remote mountain road, she remembered the reports at the time, by the time someone found them and called the police several hours had passed, she thought she’d been burnt to ashes.
Otherwise... why would they have widely reported her death?
Bodies and such... what about... being taken back?
Her fists clenched unconsciously, her heart pounding "thud, thud, thud", and she had a feeling that something had gone beyond her
