To Love You Again

Chapter 772 - Did she give up on him?

In the fourth week of Ming Zhi Yi's sudden disappearance, the high society finally made up their mind that the once powerful man hid and had no plans to retaliate anymore. They finally accepted that Ming Zhi Yi had truly lost.

Many greedy eyes and flattering mouths turned to the legendary families, the victor of the war. As the winner of the business war, there would be plenty of opportunities and great deals presented before them. They wish to ride in their coattails.

Even the four families all received major blows and doesn't have the same power as they have before due to the war with Ming Zhi Yi, their reputation and prestige increased by a large margin as the winner of the war.

On the first month of battle with Ming Zhi Yi, Tang Xinyang went home to help her grandmother to take care of the Tang empire. The woman who don't even miss a day of practice in her martial arts copped up in her office to help the empire fight against Ming Zhi Yi. Now that the business industry calmed down with Ming Zhi Yi's disappearance, she thought she could finally take a break.

However, the aftermath of the business conflict left her with so much work. She could not even leave the company.. She slept and ate in her own office.

Inside the office, Tang Xinyang was currently on the phone with Mistress Tang.

"Grandma, I can't go. There is still plenty of work that I need to do here. Besides, that party is only for show. You can just go alone. If you want someone to go with you just drag Yin'er. She is always free." Tang Xinyang sold her own sister.

"You are my heir. You should be there. I know there are many things left to do in the company especially since the conflict just ended. But you can take a day off and show yourselves."

"I can't do that grandma. I would rather spend my day off in the ring rather than at the party. The Tang empire is in a mess after the war with Ming Zhi Yi. There are more urgent things than the victory party."

Mistress Tang knew that her eldest grandaughter was stubborn. She asked once more. "Is there really no way you won't go? You know how important it is. Especially for the heirs."

"I won't go."

Tang Xinyang was determined not to go to the party. Dressing up and socializing with people who were full of schemes and slick mouths was even more tiring than cleaning the mess in the empire.

"Even your escort is Jang Shin? I will let you two host the party." Mistress Tang tried to bargain the greatest card.

Tang Xinyang:"...."

She was silent for a moment.

It had been so long since she had seen Jang Shin's face. Since she hurried to the company after she set foot in this country's ground, she had no time to meet him. After that last meeting with Jang Shin, she went overseas for a business trip. Then she came home when she heard the news and help the empire since then. She never once met Jang Shin. She had been occupied with business matters.

Tang Xinyang lowered her eyes. Even though she missed Jang Shin and wanted to see him badly, she knew it was not the time to be occupied with her one-sided love. She m?tur?d a lot in these chaotic times. She would be the Head Master of the family and the empire in the future. She needed to know her priority.

Once she settled the matters in the empire, she would continue her operation of seducing Jang Shin.

So she answered determinedly, "Not now. Even he is the escort, I won't go."

Tang Xinyang then resolutely bid goodbye. Jang Shin's name was really a great bargaining chip. Now she felt regret and an urge to call back and say 'Yes, I'll go and see him'.

She immediately break that thought.

Nah. Not now.

She had to clean up the leftover mess that Ming Zhi Yi gave them in the empire.

Mistress Tang had a strange look on her face as the call ended. Did her eldest just reject the chance to be with her greatest love?

Mistress Tang rarely allows the two to become partners in the party. But right now, she even offered the two together to become a host.

From this fact, one could see Mistress Tang's thoughts of shipping Jang Shin and Tang Xinyang together. It was the start of letting people know that she had Jang Shin in her mind as her son-in-law.

But her granddaughter actually rejected it?

Her granddaughter...was starting to become sensible.

"Would she go, Head Master?" Jang Shin was beside Mistress Tang.

Jang Shin was waiting eagerly for the past few months to meet Tang Xinyang. He was told by Mistress Tang a few days ago that he would be Tang Xinyang's partner and be the host of the party together.

After the last talk with William, Jang Shin pondered a lot. The pandora box that he carefully avoided was finally opening. He ventured towards this forebidden feeling to look for an answer. And during these past few months that he wasn't able to see Tang Xinyang, he slowly find an answer in his heart. He could not wait to tell it to Tang Xinyang.

Too bad, because of the chaotic situation, the timing wasn't right. So he waited patiently until the conflict died down.

However, his enthusiasm and nervousness were suddenly put to stop.

Mistress Tang shook her head, "Xinyang won't go. Even I told her that you'll be the escort she still rejected coming to the party. Sigh, the empire is surely in a mess that it even made my granddaughter worry."

Jang Shin turned silent. He was dumbfounded. He did not expect that the most awaited reunion with Tang Xinyang suddenly flies away.

Tang Xinyang...rejected?

The woman that always grab no matter what kind of chance just to be together with him suddenly refused this opportunity? This was the first.

For some reason, William's words appeared in his mind.

'Many men would line up for her...'

'There will be a time where she will meet a person a hundred times better than you...'

'If you don't want that to happen, don't make her wait and give up.'

Unease and anxiety started to appear in his heart. His pupils dilated and he could not breathe for a moment.

What if...Xinyang give up on him?

She went overseas for a few months then went here and spent four months without seeing him. Since their last meeting, they haven't met for half a year.

Could it be...she met someone she likes at that time? Did she... abandon her feelings for him?

For a moment, Jang Shin could not tell left from right. He lowered his eyes to hide the complex emotions and his turbulent thoughts.

Mistress Tang's words were blurry in his ears,? "Jang Shin, go to Yin'er and tell her she would accompany me in place of her sister. She'll host the party with you."

"Yes, Headmaster."

Jang Shin did not even know how he spoke those words without stammering.
