Chapter 118: Do You Think You’re Worthy of Being Spied Upon?

Tang Li would definitely not leave such a rare Guqin outside. She closed the cover and walked upstairs.
Butler Yang, who entered, said to her, “Madam, breakfast is ready.”
“Yeah, I’ll come back down soon.”
“Yes.”
After Tang Li brought the Guqin to the bedroom, she took it out. At the same time, the two Kylins flew out as well. They surrounded the Guqin and were obviously more excited than Tang Li.!!
“Master, Master, can you play a song for us? I really want to listen to the Guqin.” Linlin flew to Tang Li’s shoulder and stood there, rubbing her head on her neck and acting cute.
Although Qiqi didn’t act cute, his eyes were obviously filled with desire.
Tang Li touched the Guqin lovingly and said, “Not now. The power of this Guqin is a little too great, and it is not suitable for playing in front of ordinary people.”
Thinking of the souls that she still had in her bag, she added, “Tonight, I’ll go to the mountain beside the hospital to play. I’ll play the Guqin then to put the restless souls to rest.
“Yes, Qiqi and I will protect Master when the time comes.”
“Sure.”
Tang Li admired the Guqin for a while more before putting it away.
The kylins also returned to the jade.
Since Tang Li had accepted such an expensive reward from the Host’s father, she would definitely do her best to help the Tang family. She took out her phone and called First Uncle.
To her surprise, Tang Zitong answered the call.
Before Tang Li could speak, Tang Zitong asked excitedly, “Cousin, are you going to help the Tang family?”
Tang Li nodded and asked, “Where’s First Uncle?”
Tang Zitong said, “Dad and Second Uncle drank too much last night. Plus, they are obviously under too much strain so that they suddenly became sick in the middle of the night and are now receiving infusions in the hospital.”
Tang Li, “Give the phone to First Uncle.”
“Alright.” Tang Zitong was especially anxious. “Cousin, don’t hang up yet. I’m in the corridor. I’ll pass the phone to Dad immediately.”
Tang Zitong’s excited voice could be heard from the other end of the line. “Daddy, Cousin called you. She said she wants to help us.”
Before First Uncle could speak, Tang Lin said excitedly, “Has Fourth Brother-in-law agreed to help us?”
Tang Zitong corrected her, “No, it’s Fourth sister.”
Tang Lin, “What difference does it make? Isn’t it the same thing?”
Tang Zitong didn’t bother to talk to her. She hurriedly passed the phone to her father.
First Uncle’s voice sounded a little weak, but one could tell that he was excited. “Li, is Yihan really going to help our Tang family?”
“It’s me who will help the Tang family instead of him,” Tang Li said.
Hearing that, First Uncle fell silent.
Tang Li did not mind and continued, “I only have one request for the Tang family. When the time comes, I want you to leave the real estate business and resume our old trade.”
First Uncle’s breathing suddenly became heavier.
He still did not speak, but Second Uncle’s anxious voice came from the other end. “Brother, what did Li say?”
First Madam Tang added in a hurry, “Put it on speaker so we can listen.”
Then Second Uncle’s voice was heard coming from the other end. “Li, is Yihan helping us? Did you beg him after you went back last night? Is he angry? We…”
“Second Uncle.” Tang Li interrupted him and repeated what she had just said. This time, her voice was more oppressive. “I’m the one who is helping the Tang family, but I have a request. After this matter is resolved, the Tang family must leave the real estate business and resume our old trade.”
After Tang Li finished speaking, it was very quiet on the other end of the line.
It was so quiet that one could hear gasps.
After a while, Second Uncle said bitterly, “Li, it’s impossible to do musical instrument business here at Imperial Capital anymore. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have changed our trade.”
“Who says so? Our instruments are not inferior to Western instruments in any way.”
Tang Li continued, “First Uncle, Second Uncle, think about how popular our instruments were in the Imperial Capital when the western instruments were not yet introduced. In just a few decades, have you lost confidence in the instruments left behind by our ancestors?”
When Tang Li finished saying that, her voice was very calm, but there was something magical about it that made the listeners moved at the same time.
“Fourth sister is right!” Tang Zitong was the first to speak. Tang Zitong was practically shouting. “Our family aims to export our musical instruments overseas so that people around the world can see how elegant the instruments left behind by our ancestors are.”
Then the twins agreed.
Tang Ze and Tang Lei agreed as well.
The seniors did not say anything, but Tang Li could guess that they were also moved.
After a while, First Uncle asked, “How does Li plan to help us tide over this crisis? Didn’t Yihan say that the mountain can’t be flattened and that it won’t be utilized in five years? Are you planning to make Yihan buy that piece of land?”
“No.” Tang Li emphasized again. “When I say I’ll help, I mean I’ll help on my own.”
“Then how are you going to help?”
“I’ll go and solve the problem of that mountain being unremovable.”
“How?”
“Fourth Sister is a witch!” Tang Zitong interrupted, “Didn’t I tell you that Fourth Sister saved me and the other girls from the tomb?”
First Uncle and Second Uncle both sighed. Second Uncle said, “Let Li try. In any case, the worst case scenario will be our Tang family going bankrupt because of this piece of land.”
First Uncle said, “If we can really sell this land, we’ll go back to our old trade. Anyway, I also think it’s too difficult to do real estate business.”
First Uncle was not the only one who thought so. The other men in the Tang family also thought so.
Finally, Tang Li persuaded them.
After hanging up, she went downstairs to eat.
…
On the other side.
At the Qi Mansion.
Qi Yihan received a call from the Qi Mansion before dawn and rushed over.
Before he entered the courtyard where the doctors were staying, he heard his eldest brother’s roar. “The Qi family pays you so much every month, but you can’t even save a person. What’s the point of keeping you guys?”
Qi Yihan walked in and saw a group of bodyguards and servants standing in the courtyard. First Master was cursing them with a walking stick.
The other people stood at the side, all of them looking grim.
Qi Hao was the first to see Qi Yihan enter and quickly reminded First Master, “Daddy, Fourth Uncle is here.”
First Master looked at Qi Yihan with a twisted expression and questioned, “Fourth brother, didn’t you send your people to spy on us? Why didn’t any of them show up when your sister-in-law got into trouble?”
Qi Yihan looked at him coldly and asked, “Do you think you’re worthy of being spied upon?”
