Since Tang Kangquan had returned, he didnât want to and wouldnât be foolish enough to go against him at this moment and cause trouble for himself.
However, he really hoped that something bad would happen to Tang Lei.
Even if he wanted to replace Tang Kangquan, he would only do it when he was confident enough. He always left himself some room to maneuver. Therefore, even though Tang Kangquan knew what he was thinking, he wouldnât make things difficult for him until he did something wrong to him or the Tang Corporation.
Tang Lei, however, was different! He had been causing trouble for him just because of his position as chairman. Luckily, he had the ability to handle it, so he hadnât allowed Tang Lei to successfully make things difficult for him.
As soon as Tang Lei heard that, he was taken aback. Although he was also worried and uneasy, he still indignantly retorted. âUncle, what do you mean? What evidence do you have against me? What did I do?â
âYou know what you did,â said Tang Kangwei, believing that Tang Kangquan had found some evidence against Tang Lei.
âI didnât do anything. How would I know? You are slandering me,â Tang Lei said angrily.
âYou will know soon whether Iâm slandering you or not. Do you think my brother said that just for fun?â Tang Kangwei said.
Tang Lei immediately looked at Tang Kangquan and said pitifully, âDad, I donât know what you have found out, but I have never done anything wrong to you or the company. Maybe someone wants to frame me!â
âMy grandfather hasnât said anything yet, and you already have so much to say. Donât you know that a clear conscience fears no accusation? My grandfather is not a fool. He can distinguish between truth and lies,â said Leng Xiaoyao.
Tang Lei was struck dumb for a second. Although Leng Xiaoyaoâs words were reasonable, he still felt guilty and nervous!
Soon, the police arrived at the door, and Tang Leiâs heart sank.
âWe received a report that Mr. Tang, Tang Lei, the acting chairman of the Tang Corporation, is suspected of bribery and murder. Please come with us,â said the leading police officer.
Although everyone was somewhat prepared for the news, they still felt a sense of sorrow when they heard the police say it.
âNo, you must be mistaken. I didnât bribe anyone or commit murderâŠâ Tang Lei immediately denied it, but his guilty look betrayed him.
âWe are not mistaken. Miss Leng and Old Master Tang personally came to our police station to report the case,â said the leading police officer.
Tang Lei abruptly turned to look at Leng Xiaoyao and Tang Kangquan with resentment in his eyes. âSince you accuse me of bribery and murder, you must have evidence! If there is no evidence, then itâs all a false accusation.â
âWe have evidence.â Leng Xiaoyao said coldly, âIf you want evidence, Iâll give it to you.â
Leng Xiaoyao took the computer from a bodyguard. After some operation, the video of Tang Lei in front of Old Master Tangâs hospital bed appeared on the projection in the conference room.
Seeing that, Tang Lei trembled all over. Why was there a surveillance video of the ward?
Subconsciously, Tang Lei wanted to rush over and stop Leng Xiaoyao from playing it. However, before he could get close to her, he was stopped by two bodyguards. He couldnât break free no matter how hard he struggled.
Then Tang Leiâs voice sounded from the projection.
âDad, youâve been lying here for three years. Why donât you just die!â
âIf you die, everything will be over.â
âI killed your son and daughter-in-law several years ago.â
âIf you canât bear to part with your grandchildren, when thereâs a chance, Iâll let them meet you.â
âI have to say that your grandchildren are lucky. They were beggars for three years, but they were taken in by kind people.â
âI originally sent some people to catch them, but failed.â
Everyone had always suspected that Tang Heng and his wifeâs death was related to Tang Lei, but because there was no evidence, it couldnât be confirmed. So when Tang Lei admitted it himself, it was still a surprise.
In the video, they saw Old Master Tangâs fingers move a little, but then Tang Lei asked for medicine to make sure that he would never wake up again.
However, he was unsuccessful because a doctor happened to come in.
Although he didnât succeed, he couldnât escape the charge of attempted murder.
Moreover, he admitted that he killed Tang Heng and his wife, so he couldnât escape the charge of murder.
âNo, none of this is true. Someone must have imitated my voice to record this conversation. Itâs not me who said it. Itâs not meâŠâ Tang Lei refused to admit it.
âBy the way, there is also a ledger here that was taken out of your safe.â said Leng Xiaoyao, taking out the ledger.
Seeing the familiar ledger, Tang Lei collapsed on the ground.
He was doomed. He was totally doomed this time.
In the end, Tang Lei was taken away, and the police quickly froze all of his accounts and expelled Zhang Hongyu and her child from the Tang familyâs house.
Since the Tang familyâs house originally belonged to Old Master Tang, they could no longer stay there.
Zhang Hongyu immediately went back to her own familyâs house for help, but her family didnât want to get involved for fear of getting into trouble.
Zhang Hongyu had no choice, but to turn to Tang Leiâs friends in official circles. Most of them didnât want to get involved either, but a few came forward to help.
However, the police had already been reminded by Li Mochen to take this case seriously, so it was useless for anyone to speak up for Tang Lei, especially since the evidence was conclusive!
Old Master Tang still wanted to know if Tang Yue and Tang Feiâs situation was also related to Tang Lei. So they needed to continue questioning him, and it would take some time to solve the case.
After Tang Lei was arrested, Old Master Tang made a short speech in the conference room. âYou are all old employees of the Tang Corporation. I know that everyone has his own ideas, goals and purposes, but since we are all shareholders of the Tang Corporation, I hope that you can truly care about the company. Only when the Tang Corporation is doing well can you receive returns. Invest as much as you want and get as much return as you deserve. Donât think about other things, because itâs useless. Tang Lei is a good example of someone whoâs coveted what others have, and ends up losing everything. Is that what we want? We canât risk our lives to make money because even if we earn money, we wonât be able to spend it if weâre dead.â
After hearing Tang Kangquanâs words, many people began to reflect.
What were they fighting for?
They couldnât go after the chairman position like Tang Lei did.
First, they didnât have the right to do so. Second, they didnât have the courage.
In fact, they formed factions privately just to get some benefits from those who wanted to win them over. However, if they lost more in exchange for these benefits, wouldnât it be a bad deal?
After thinking about it, they decided to be loyal towards Tang Kangquan.
