老攻身患绝症[穿书]

Chapter 116

After the party, Elder Tao went to the suite on the next floor to rest. Tao Yang took Qiu Xing and Xie Yang down the stairs to the door of the suite. He opened the door with the key card and invited the two people inside.

“Grandfather is in the study on the right. Chairman Qiu, please feel free.” 

Qiu Xing didn’t move. He glanced sideways at Xie Yang and frowned.

Xie Yang patted Qiu Xing on the shoulder. “Go, I will be fine.”

Qiu Xing glanced at Tao Yang with a bit of irritation but didn’t say anything. He leaned in and kissed Xie Yang’s forehead. “I will come out soon.”

Xie Yang nodded. 

Tao Yang politely lowered his eyes and stood aside. After the two people finished their exchange, he raised his eyes again and walked with Qiu Xing to the door of the study, helping Qiu Xing open the door.

Once Qiu Xing entered the study, the nurse who took care of Elder Tao came out of the study. Tao Yang sent him away and turned to Xie Yang. “Can we chat here?”

Xie Yang also didn’t want to be too far away from Qiu Xing and nodded. The two of them sat on the sofa. Tao Yang reached out to make scented tea with the tea set on the coffee table and asked, “What does Vice-chairman Xie want to say?”

“It depends on what Senior Tao wants to do.”

Tao Yang smiled with a gentle and kind look. “Vice-chairman Xie, I don’t understand what you mean. I vaguely feel that Vice-chairman Xie is a bit hostile to me but I don’t know where this hostility comes from. Did I do something to offend you?”

Xie Yang returned Tao Yang’s words. “I vaguely feel that Senior Tao is malicious to me but I don’t know where this maliciousness comes from. Is it because I got too deeply involved in the Qiu family and hindered Senior Tao?”

The little kettle on the coffee table made a whistle as the water boiled.

Tao Yang and Xie Yang looked at each other. After a few seconds, Tao Yang retracted his gaze, picked up the kettle and slowly poured the tea into the delicate glass teapot while replying, “Vice-chairman Xie, you seem to have a misunderstanding of me. I just returned to China. I don’t know much about the domestic situation and might’ve ignored some things when speaking. If I accidentally offended you then I’ll apologize first. However, I promise that it was unintentional. The age difference between you and me isn’t big and we are both in the entertainment industry. I hope to have a good relationship with you.” 

The smell of flower tea emerged. It was as described in the original novel. Tao Yang was indeed very polite and humble.

Xie Yang smiled. “There are so many things that you didn’t intend. In fact, I have always wanted to ask Senior something.”

“What does Vice-chairman Xie want to ask?”

“Senior said that you went to the graduation ceremony for a family member. Is your family member in the same year as me? Did he participate in today’s birthday party? If so, I wonder if it is convenient for Senior to introduce him to me?” 

Tao Yang wiped the table with a tissue he picked up and poured a glass of scented tea. He gave it to Xie Yang and regretfully replied, “My distant cousin didn’t come to the birthday party today. The next time I get the opportunity, I will definitely introduce him to you.”
