National development: I build a base on rock beasts

Chapter 116 Tang Yaqing's Father's Past

"Your daughter? My Tang family only has the surname Tang, not Ai!"

Seeing that the current situation was a bit tense, Duan Ming couldn't help feeling embarrassed as he was caught between the Tang family leader and Ai Xiaoxing.

"Grandpa, I once had an appointment with the chairman, and this time I returned to Earthstar to reach a cooperation with Xingya Group. Look..."

Duan Ming didn't go on with the rest of the sentence. With Patriarch Tang's experience, how could he fail to see that Duan Ming was going to be a peacemaker?He still wants to sell the face of his grandson-in-law.

Standing up from the sofa, the head of the Tang family walked out of the villa and said.

"Forget it, the older you get, the more unhealthy your body becomes. I'll go out and walk around."

Seeing Patriarch Tang leave the villa, only Duan Ming and Ai Xiaoxing were left in the living room.

"Are you wondering why the relationship between my dad... Patriarch Tang and I is so tense?"

Duan Ming would not take the initiative to ask about matters between elders, but Ai Xiaoxing obviously wanted to talk to someone, and Duan Ming didn't mind being the listener.

"Twenty years ago, I was the same age as Yaqing now. I fell in love with Yaqing's father at first sight. It was a coincidence. At that time, her father was also the same as you are now, attracting the attention of all forces."

This was the first time Duan Ming heard about Tang Yaqing's father.

"As the direct son of the Tang family, Yaqing's father is the one with the strongest superpower among the three sons of the head of the Tang family. At that time, he dared to face several fleets alone. He was a hero in my eyes."

Speaking of this, Duan Ming saw in Ai Xiaoxing's eyes the light that Tang Yaqing saw when he looked at him.

"It's a matter of course. I married Yaqing's father and gave birth to Yaqing. I also joined the Xingya Group with the Tang family's relationship. It's been 20 years!"

"Since then, Yaqing's father and I have become a couple who get together less and leave more. Yaqing's father is always flying around in space to fight for the common people and small families. In the eyes of most people, He is a hero who eradicates evil and promotes good, wherever there is injustice, he will appear there."

"But he didn't understand a truth. After all, this world is still a world of rights. His actions have touched the interests of big families, and the Earth Federation is also very troubled because of this."

Hearing this, Duan Ming was startled, and Ai Xiaoxing smiled helplessly.

"What? Does it sound similar to you now? This is the main reason why I objected to you being with Yaqing back then. You and Yaqing's father walked the same path!"

Duan Ming couldn't help asking: "What happened to uncle?"

"Standing in front of the interests of the big family and the Earth Alliance, they naturally want to remove the obstacles. In this process, two forces are involved, the alliance of superpowers to which the Earth Alliance belongs, and the Xingya Group."

The death of Tang Yaqing's father was actually related to the Xingya Group!It's no wonder Patriarch Tang has such an attitude towards Ai Xiaoxing!
"Back then, I overheard the group's senior management's plan to get rid of Yaqing's father, and I told him all this immediately, but he and I didn't know it, so I told him the plan. This is the real conspiracy of the Earth Federation!"

"Relying on my phone call with him, the Earth Alliance confirmed his location, and sent a superpower user from the power user alliance to kill him on the way back to the earth star. In front of me at that time, only Two options."

"Either leave the Xingya Group and return to the Tang family to accompany Yaqing's growth, but the death of Yaqing's father was shamelessly blamed on me by Dilian, claiming that I got rid of Yaqing's father for Dilian!"

Combined with the fact that Tang Yaqing's father's last phone call before his death was indeed with Ai Xiaoxing, she couldn't argue with this point.

"Or, stay in the Xingya Group and wait for the day when I can avenge Yaqing's father!"

Obviously, Ai Xiaoxing chose the latter.

"You also know the rest of the matter. Now in the Tang family, I am the villain who killed my husband and abandoned my daughter!"

Duan Ming admires that a woman, who has suffered such a great grievance, can get to where she is today step by step.

"In 20 years, what's the use of talking about the past? Right now, I only hope that Yaqing can be happy. As for the hatred, I can just recite it by myself."

The moment Ai Xiaoxing finished speaking, a voice sounded not far behind her.

"What you said...is it true?"

Ai Xiaoxing was startled, and turned around abruptly. Standing there was Tang Chen with his head lowered and his fists clenched.

In fact, Duan Ming had discovered Tang Chen's arrival a long time ago, but he didn't say anything to remind him, it was just to let someone in the Tang family hear the truth about this past event.

Tang Chen walked slowly to Ai Xiaoxing.

"Why have you never explained all this to my Tang family after so many years?"

Tears had already rolled down Ai Xiaoxing's cheeks, and she smiled self-deprecatingly.

"I have an inescapable responsibility for his death. If I hadn't been caught in the trap of the Earth Federation back then, I wouldn't have exposed his position, and he wouldn't have had an accident. I deserved all of this."

"Mom! Why didn't you wake me up when you came?"

Tang Yaqing's voice came from the stairs, and Ai Xiaoxing hurriedly turned his head away to wipe away his tears.

Tang Yaqing walked to Ai Xiaoxing's side, and seeing the tears on her mother's face, she couldn't help asking, "Mom, what's wrong with you?"

Ai Xiaoxing shook his head, and raised his hand to gently stroke Tang Yaqing's hair.

"Knowing that your daughter is married, mother is happy for you!"

Both Tang Chen and Duan Ming tacitly chose not to tell Tang Yaqing about the past. They are Tang Yaqing's closest relatives, and they only hope that Tang Yaqing can live a carefree life, just like Ai Xiaoxing said, hatred, Let them do it!
The door of the villa was pushed open, Patriarch Tang walked in, Ai Xiaoxing said to Duan Ming.

"Tomorrow at [-] o'clock in the morning is the high-level meeting of the Xingya Group. The purpose is to agree on the choice of the Seventh Domain Division. Don't be too late."

After finishing speaking, Ai Xiaoxing walked out of the villa.

When passing by Patriarch Tang, Patriarch Tang spoke to Tang Chen.

"Chen'er, go and ask the kitchen to prepare a few more dishes for lunch, remember to tell them not to put spicy food, your brother and sister have bad throats, so they can't eat."

Ai Xiaoxing's footsteps stopped, how could she not understand that what she said just now was also heard clearly by Patriarch Tang.

The reason why Tang Chen eavesdropped in the dark was at the request of Patriarch Tang. Through the earphones, Patriarch Tang also knew the truth of the year.

He raised his hand and patted Ai Xiaoxing's shoulder lightly.

"Xing'er, for so many years... I have suffered for you!"

Ai Xiaoxing's tears welled up again, she turned around and knelt down on the ground, holding Patriarch Tang's leg with both hands, and finally yelled the words she had always wanted to yell but hadn't yelled out.

"dad!"
