Chapter 421 (2/2)

“Fine, off you go then!” Tang Yunde nodded.

Tang Xiu quickly left South Gate Town without saying hello to his mother since she was still asleep. After driving his Land Rover SUV to the Yuan Family’s villa, Yuan Zhengxuan and Zhao Jing were very enthusiastic as they personally welcomed Tang Xiu to the study room. Inside, Yuan Zhengxuan enthusiastically said, “Tang Xiu, your Magnificent Tang Corp is becoming more and more prosperous and thriving!”

“Well, I don’t know much about the company’s management, though.” Tang Xiu modestly said, “It’s Kang Xia who usually takes care of it since my main task is studying.”

“To have a senior general manager such as Kang Xia working for you is really great luck, Tang Xiu.” Yuan Zhengxuan said, “I wouldn’t have anymore headaches if I were to have someone with such competencies.”

“Uncle Yuan, is there something you want to discuss with me?”

“You know that I’ve started to think about transforming my business some time ago. Thus, I’ve withdrawn quite a lot of funds recently.” Yuan Zhengxuan nodded and said, “I also made some investment in the New City project thanks to my relationship with you. However, I still have quite a lot of funds in hand, so I want to ask you whether there’s any business worth investing in?”

“Uncle Yuan, for you to have set up your business career from scratch, you’re definitely a capable person. Yet, you’re asking me about investment issues. It’s kind of making me awkward.” Tang Xiu couldn’t help laughing and said, “Speaking about it, you’re not the first one to ask me about investing today.”

“There was another? Who?” Yuan Zhengxuan was astonished.

“My father.” Tang Xiu smiled.

Perplexed, Yuan Zhengxuan said, “Your father? As far as I know, you seem to have been brought up by your mother, I haven’t heard about…”

“I’ve indeed grown up with my mother due to special reasons.” Tang Xiu said, “But lately, my father has come back and wants to do some businesses. Anyways, when I was chatting with him with him about investments, I mentioned you and he said that he has met you a few times!”

“Who’s your father?” Yuan Zhengxuan was surprised.

“Tang Yunde.” Tang Xiu said.

Tang Yunde?

The name gave a familiar vibe to Yuan Zhengxuan, yet he couldn’t remember where he had heard it. When he looked at Tang Xiu’s face, realization dawned on him. Tang Xiu’s face reminded him of someone. Due to remembering it, he got up all of a sudden and asked incredulously, “Your father is Tang Yunde? The once Soldier King in the army? And one of the Tangs in Beijing…”

“Yes!” Tang Xiu laughed.

Yuan Zhengxuan’s lips twitched a few times. Looking emotionally excited, he murmured, “Brother Tang is still alive? I met him 20 years ago, and his heroic spirit was unforgettable to me. Tang Xiu, where’s your father now? Can I meet him to drink a couple glasses of wine?”

“He’s in South Gate Town, Uncle Yuan.” Tang Xiu said with a smile, “You can go there directly if you want to see him.”

“I’ll visit him tonight.” Yuan Zhengxuan nodded repeatedly and said, “You might not be aware of it, Tang Xiu. But your father was once the pride of all the servicemen. He had been someone countless soldiers looked up to. Had it not been because of what happened that year, I dare say he would have become a general and someone with great authority in the army.”

Tang Xiu only let out a faint smile and didn’t reply.

“This is really unexpected.” Yuan Zhengxuan sighed again, “No, I never expected it! To think that you’re actually his son. No wonder you possess such capabilities despite your young age. A father tiger indeed won’t beget a dog son. Like father, like son!”

“Well, let’s not talk about this anymore, Uncle Yuan.” Tang Xiu waved his hand and said, “If your purpose to ask me over this time was merely for asking about investment issues, I’m afraid I can’t be of any help to you.”

“You definitely can!” A glint flashed in Yuan Zhengxuan’s eyes as he said, “I trust you can help me in this.”

“How come?” Tang Xiu was stunned.

“Didn’t you just say it? That your father also wants to do business?” Yuan Zhengxuan said with a smile, “I want to set up some business, so if the two of us cooperate…”

“Whether you two will eventually cooperate or not, I won’t interfere with that. If anything, you can talk with him directly, but don’t involve me in it.” Tang Xiu smiled and said, “By the way, Uncle Yuan… Yuan Chuling wants to open a fitness center in Shanghai. He has told you about it, I presume? As his father, are you going to support him?”

“He got support from you, so how can I not?” Yuan Zhengxuan laughed and said, “Little Ling has told me about everything you two have discussed. So I’ve also decided to give him 10 million as a starting kick. Even if he loses all the money, I don’t care. I’ll still support him as long as he gets to learn some skills from it.”

“That’s just like Uncle Yuan has just said, a tiger father won’t beget a dog son.” Tang Xiu gave him a thumbs up and praised, “Like father, like son. Worry not, Uncle Yuan! I’ll help you look after him and the fitness center. As long as he doesn’t deliberately create trouble, I’m sure there won’t be any problems.”

“That would be great!”

Yuan Zhengxuan nodded in satisfaction. It was actually these words that Yuan Zhengxuan had been waiting from Tang Xiu.
