Chapter 1649: Tang Xi vs Ling Hui (6)
After Tang Xi went to see Ling Hui, he received a call from Fang Ye not long after.
They had information on Liu Ping’s whereabouts.
There were surveillance cameras that showed Liu Ping in an apartment in a district.
Tang Xi immediately rushed over with his men.
After kicking open the door of that apartment, Tang Xi quickly walked in.
However, the apartment was empty.
There was only a small DVD player on the bedside table.
Tang Xi opened the video. It was a video that Liu Ping had recorded.
“Ah Xi, I know you’ll find this place, but I just want to meet you alone. Maybe you don’t want to see me alone, but I know you want to get your goddess out. If you come and see me, I’ll give you the video that shows what happened to Lin Yanyan during that incident.”
“The address of our meeting is in the drawer of the bedside table. Remember, if you bring anyone else here, I will destroy the video. As long as Lin Yanyan doesn’t wake up, your goddess will be treated as a suspect and may even be prosecuted.”
“She’s a beauty who was raised delicately. I’m sure you can’t bear to let her suffer inside for a long time!”
Tang Xi put down the DVD and opened the drawer. There was indeed a note inside.
The address of the meeting was written on the note.
Fang Ye stood at the bedroom door and did not see the address on the note, but he heard Liu Ping’s voice in the video.
Fang Ye walked in. “Young Master, I don’t agree with you going to look for Liu Ping alone. It’s too dangerous!”
Liu Ping had been with Tang Xi for many years and knew his personality very well.
She was right. Ling Hui had been raised as a pampered child, and it was impossible for Tang Xi to let her stay in there for a long time.
Although they did not abuse her, he was unwilling to let her bear the burden of being a suspect.
“Fang Ye, I would rather get into trouble than let Ling Hui suffer. I must go to this appointment!”
“Young Master, I’m afraid that you’ll be in danger.”
Tang Xi patted Fang Ye’s shoulder. “Don’t worry, I still have to save Ling Hui. I won’t let anything happen to me.”
…
The place where Liu Ping arranged to meet Tang Xi was in a remote old building in the suburbs.
This place was rather desolate and there was no signal around. From the moment Tang Xi walked in, the outside world could not contact him.
There was no fear or panic in Tang Xi’s heart.
With one hand in his pocket, he walked into the building.
Pushing open the old door, a woman wearing a mask and hat stood there with a scanner. “I have to check if you have any sharp weapons on you before I can let you in.”
Tang Xi raised his hands.
The woman took the scanner and scanned his body. She found that he had not brought anything over and nodded. “Go in!”
Tang Xi walked in.
After walking for a distance, Tang Xi smelled a faint smell of tobacco.
He looked up and saw a black figure sitting on a leather chair.
That person’s back was facing him and Tang Xi could not see the person’s face clearly.
“Liu Ping?”
The leather chair slowly turned around.
Tang Xi saw Liu Ping’s outfit and frowned.
Liu Ping was wearing a black suit and had cut her long hair short. She had put on wax and held a cigarette in her hand. People who were not familiar with her would think that she was a man.
Liu Ping took the cigarette from her lips and pointed at the old sofa beside Tang Xi. “Sit.”
Tang Xi sat down.
Liu Ping took out a cigarette box and took out a cigarette. “Do you want to smoke?”
Tang Xi took the cigarette, his handsome face expressionless. A few seconds later, he crushed the cigarette between his fingers and threw it into the ashtray. “Tell me. What do I have to do to make you give me the video of you pushing Lin Yanyan down the stairs?”
Liu Ping looked at Tang Xi’s exquisite and handsome facial features, her eyes revealing an expression that Tang Xi could not understand. “Don’t you want to know why I created the illusion that your mother jumped off the cliff and then locked her up so close to you?”
“Because you’re a psychopath!”
Liu Ping looked up and laughed.
He leaned against the leather chair, took a puff of smoke and exhaled slowly at the old ceiling. “Ah Xi, I’m actually a man. When I first saw your mother, I fell for her. But my appearance was no different from a woman’s. She thought I was a woman and after I helped her several times, we became best friends.”
“She’s cold on the outside but warm on the inside, but she’s rather slow when it comes to relationships. She doesn’t know that I often did intimate things to her because I liked her.”
“After she had you, I started to get jealous when I saw her putting her heart and soul into you. When you were very young, I secretly let you smell a very faint fragrance. You vomited after smelling it, then I mixed that fragrance into your mother’s skincare products. When your mother hugged you, you were very disgusted with your mother when you smelled that smell. When she hugged you, you cried and vomited.”
“I also instigated your grandmother to hire a Taoist priest. The Taoist priest said that your birth characters were incompatible with your mother’s and that the fate between you and her was shallow. You could only grow up healthily if she alienated you.”
“That was why your mother was cold to you since you were young. She was afraid that you would fall ill once she treated you well.”
When Tang Xi heard this, a hideous expression appeared on his face. He was like a beast that had been provoked. He stood up from the sofa suddenly and grabbed Liu Ping’s collar. “You’re an animal!”
There was no change in Liu Ping’s expression, only a light smile. “Ah Xi, I’m not done yet. Don’t be agitated first. If you can’t get the video, wouldn’t you have come here for nothing?”
Tang Xi’s jaw tightened and he sat back on the sofa with red eyes.
Liu Ping finished smoking a cigarette and lit another one. “As you grew up, your relationship with Yu’er faded and you stuck to me more than her. But it was not bad for everyone to live like this. Although I couldn’t have Yu’er, Yu’er didn’t like your father either.”
“Until one day, I found out that Yu’er was paying attention to Dai Lang’s news. Dai Lang’s wife was sick and she secretly donated a kidney. I was really angry at that time. I thought that Yu’er still had feelings for Dai Lang. When Yu’er returned, I drank too much and did something that made me regret for the rest of my life.”
“I rushed into Yu’er’s room, wanting to be with her. Yu’er found out about my true identity. She was quite afraid then, and I was also extremely afraid. However, I begged her bitterly and told her about my pain. Her heart softened and she forgave me.”
“But I’ve always been sensitive. Ever since that incident, I realized that Yu’er had been avoiding me. Every time she looked at me, I felt like she was looking at a monster. When I realized that she had feelings for Tang Jing, I almost broke down.”
“So, I created a misunderstanding between her and Tang Jing. Of course, the thing that made her break down the most was that she thought Tang Jing had really fallen in love with me. When I took out the ring that looked exactly like hers, she looked like she wanted to die!”
