Chapter 108

Tan Jingmo didn’t respond to Bao Er’s questions. He only stretched out his hand and caressed her head. The expression on his face still looked solemn.

Many affairs are happening recently. After Sheng Xing’s case was done, news spread about Hudson making his investment into Tang corporation. Tang corporation was Tang Yuening’s family business. Although it was not as large as Sheng Xing, Tang corporation had given Hudson the opportunity. Hence, there would certainly be some changes in the future of the jewelry industry in T city.

“Try to go out less often. I’m afraid people might target you because of competition in business. And when you’re going out, better bring some self defense items.” Tan Jingmo suddenly said.

Talking about Hudson, he would use everything in his disposal just to attain his target. Furthermore, he never forgot his grudges, which was why his sr conglomerate had a hard time dominating the South East Asia market.

He was afraid that he would direct his past grudges, including the matter with Sheng Xing, to another person. Especially if he investigated himself and found out about Bao Er, then it wouldn’t be something trivial as just talk anymore.

“Bao Bao, don’t go out for the time being. I’ll fire the maid tomorrow and change to another one for you. If anything happens, go find her directly.” After some deep thoughts, Tan Jingmo still decided to shield her from the storm for now. Hudson was only here to expand the market this time, so he wouldn’t stay here for too long.

Bao Er was confused as she looked at him, without understanding what happened. She didn’t experience many things yet so she completely had no idea about the trickery in business, and didn’t understand even more what it meant to be targeted by your rival who would find an opportunity to take revenge on you.

“Why did I feel puzzled, this sounds like a scene in a movie in the cinema!” Bao Er said while hugging her arms together, looking at she was protecting herself.

Inside VK corporation, every staff member was waiting seriously. They didn’t even dare to breathe too hard in case it might attract the old CEO’s attention.

Tan Hongtao was the ex-leader of VK. He was known to never fail when doing business, a character where all big corporations were afraid of when they heard his name. He had fought and struggled for many years before taking VK to greater heights in the end.

Coming down from the Stretch Lincoln Limousine, Tan Hongtao was wearing a Chinese tunic suit with a big furry coat wrapped outside. He was tall but he didn’t look thin although he was already a seventy-year-old old man. His face was still full of liveliness with beaming spirits, but his expression was not relaxed at all, looking extremely solemn instead.

Behind him was a group of guards in black clothes and pants. Their expressions were the same as Tan Hongtao. They were expressionless as they looked directly at the logo of VK big building. Then they followed Tan Hongtao’s footsteps and slowly walked inside.

They just reached the hall when Tan Jingmo had arrived.

“Grandpa, welcome back.” Tan Jingmo smiled lightly as he told Tan Hongtao.

Tan Hongtao nodded lightly and scanned the surroundings of the first floor, but he didn’t say anything.

“Let’s go. Let’s go up and see.” When he spoke, it was in a pure Chinese tone. It gave others the same impression as himself, his voice was powerful and strong enough to affect someone’s heart.

Tan Hongtao hadn’t come back for three years. He’d passed all matters about VK to Tan Jingmo, allowing him to manage it however he wanted. He heard that the process of entering South East Asia was not going smoothly, so Tan Hongtao couldn’t help but to come and ask.

“What’s going on in South East Asia?” His sharp eagle-like eyes landed on Tan Jingmo. The keenness that came out of Tan Hongtao was already enough to make everyone around him to suck in a deep breath silently.

CEO Tan alone was not easy to confront, and now the old CEO who had always been overseas was back. So in the future, would VK be enveloped in limitless darkness everyday?

“It’s still going fine, the power that was obstructing in the dark has slowly been taken away. VK still receives good reception over there.” Tan Jingmo answered.

Tan Hongtao didn’t shake or nod his head. It was unclear what he thought.

Tan Jingmo led him around. He thought that since his grandfather was back, he would inspect the entire company, but unexpectedly, Tan Hongtao only took a short rest at his CEO office before he left.

Looking at the crowd that was gradually going further away, Tan Jingmo rubbed his chin. Grandpa, this was unlike something you would do?

Tan Hongtao, who had left VK, didn’t go back to Tan family mansion directly. Instead, he ordered the driver to take him somewhere.

That was the golden house that Tan Jingmo had bought for Bao Er.

When he arrived, Bao Er was still having her afternoon nap. The one who opened the door was the aunt that Tan Jingmo had just switched.

When Tan Hongtao entered the door, his eyes scanned the surroundings. This was a very warm, small house which put emphasis on feminine colors. It wasn’t luxurious but pleasant to the eyes.

“Where’s the girl? Didn’t you say that she’s staying here?” Tan Hongtao looked at Aunt Zhang and asked.

“Miss Bao Er is still napping, I’ll go wake her up.” Aunt Zhang answered respectfully and slowly headed towards the main bedroom.

Tan Hongtao slowly sat down on the sofa. The butler quickly poured a glass of tea and gave it to him.

“Miss Bao Er, wake up.” Aunt Zhang lightly pushed Bao Er who was sleeping soundly.

But Bao Er, who was deep in sleep, was not awakened by Aunt Zhang’s motion. Instead, she turned over and continued to sleep with her back facing Aunt Zhang.

Aunt Zhang let out a sigh. Her motions became bigger as she directly pulled away the covers on Bao Er’s body, letting the chillness go inside.

“Miss Bao Er, get up, the old master is here.” This time, her voice was louder. With her covers gone, Bao Er opened her eyes in a blur and saw Aunt Zhang’s face in front of her.
