Chapter 834 - In the Palm of the Devil’s Hand (2)
Feng Tianyi was really looking forward to the founding celebration of the Zhang Corporation. Since Zhang Jiren was still recovering from his latest surgery, Feng Tianyi needed to see it for himself that the end of the Zhang family would happen tonight.
Since the Zhang Corporation was one of the largest companies in Shenzhen, their founding anniversary was something a lot of people looked forward to attending. Tang Moyu didn't get an invitation, but her husband did.
The empress wasn't supposed to be here, but she insisted on coming with Feng Tianyi as his companion. As they alighted from the car that brought them to the venue, the couple was immediately blocked by a horde of media personnel, wanting to get a word from them.
Tang Moyu's almost perfect figure, clad in an evening dress, smartly hiding her small bump, complimented her husband's dashing appearance. Standing next to each other, it was impossible for the people not to notice them.
"Miss Tang, are you here to represent your mother?"
"Is it true that Madam Tang has fallen ill since your brother's death?"
"Miss Tang, do you plan to join the Zhang Corporation soon? As Zhang Wuying's daughter, you are also qualified to succeed in the business, right?"
The questions had been thrown left and right, but the empress remained silent and unperturbed by their inquiries. It wasn't their fault that they had no idea that she wasn't Zhang Wuying's real daughter. They also had no idea that the relationship between the Zhang and Tang families had long since been severed by her.
When the PR staff of the Zhang Corp saw the chaos outside, he immediately stepped in and called security to protect the couple. Feng Tianyi and the Song family was someone they couldn't dare offend.
At the first part of the party, Zhang Liang greeted the VIP guests, which meant he also needed to face Feng Tianyi and Tang Moyu. When his eyes landed on the empress, an indecent thought crossed on his mind. They were cousins, so how come he never knew that Tang Moyu was a great beauty? She looked better in person than seeing her on the television and print ads. Too bad they were blood-related or else he would go after her.
"Mr. Feng, thank you for gracing us tonight with your presence." He then turned to Tang Moyu and gave her a curt nod. "Cousin Moyu, I'm glad you are able to come tonight."
Tang Moyu gave him a weak smile when in fact she wanted to beat the shit out of him. The Zhang family was like vultures. The public could only see their achievements and praise their ability to stay strong after their almost bankruptcy years ago. But none of them knew how many people the Zhang family destroyed and climbed over to reach where they were right now.
"How can I not attend? Even though Mother and I haven't seen each other nor talked for years, I still want to show my support to her family." Tang Moyu couldn't believe she would be able to say these words without batting an eyelid. The only reason why she came here with Feng Tianyi was to make sure that his and her twin brother's plan would be executed perfectly tonight.
When Zhang Liang finally left, Feng Tianyi escorted his wife and took a seat. They sat there and waited for the drama to begin.
He caught the glimpse of how Zhang Liang looked at Tang Moyu earlier, and his face immediately darkened. If he wasn't thinking of what he and Zhang Jiren had planned, he wouldn't bother waiting and beat this lecherous man right then and there.
"They better not disappoint us this time," Feng Tianyi whispered next to the empress. He could only wait for now because later, he would make sure that he would wipe the arrogant grin off Zhang Liang's face.
'"I didn't expect that you would be this close with Jiren and even colluded with him," Tang Moyu said in a low voice. It's not like she was against it.
With Tang Beixuan's sudden passing and Zhang Jiren's arrival as Tang Moyu's real brother, Feng Tianyi didn't want to commit a mistake that could make his brother-in-law lose his life.
While Tang Beixuan's sunny disposition in life was refreshing in Feng Tianyi's opinion, Zhang Jiren's personality was like the sea— calm on the surface, but paddling like hell underneath. Perhaps he and Zhang Jiren were the same. That was why he was able to sympathize with his wife's twin brother.
The party officially started with Zhang Liang giving a speech, thanking everyone for attending. He went over and gave a short history of how the Zhang Corp started. The guests applauded, and Chairman Zhang received greetings from them.
Tang Moyu wanted to laugh. The audacity of these people was truly appalling. She smirked at what Zhang Liang said. What hard work? Wasn't it her twin brother who saved their asses when the company was in trouble? They couldn't even give Zhang Jiren the credit they owed him.
How repulsive, the empress thought. They were no different from the Tang family at all.
Several prominent personalities within Shenzhen were also invited and greeted by the Zhangs. Zhang Liang looked around and smiled as if he was pleased with himself. He had no idea that he was in the palm of the devil.
The party continued until the next project Zhang Jiren did for the Zhang Corps was presented by Zhang Liang. It was the most awaited part of the event as many people wondered what was next for the company.
The media was naturally focused on the newest CEO of Zhang Corps and no one dared to mention Zhang Jiren which Tang Moyu and Feng Tianyi noticed.
