Tiny Genius Alert! Mom & Dad Better Make Peace-Chapter 801 - 69: Tang Yige’s Face Contorted with Extreme Pain
Breathing was abruptly cut off, and Tang Yige suddenly widened her eyes, staring incredulously at Tang Yuwen.
Zhou Xueran also visibly froze, frowned at Tang Yuwen, her eyes full of profound confusion.
"Yige, this matter is absolutely true. If it weren’t for Rong Sinan putting pressure on me, how could I have gone to such lengths against my own daughter?" Tang Yuwen affirmed decisively.
Tang Yige clenched Zhou Xueran’s hand, trying her best to stay calm, "Why would he do that? He’s already married to Tang Ruan, why would he still do that?"
Tang Yige didn’t believe, nor did she understand.
"Isn’t it obvious? You drugged him, exposing such disgraceful behavior in front of the media. As a man, what dignity is left? So he wanted to use me to revenge against you, making it impossible for you to stay in Z City, forcing you to leave like a lost dog." Tang Yuwen stared at Tang Yige, emphasizing every word.
"...Impossible, he wouldn’t do such a thing." Tang Yige shook her head, but her eyes were clouded with darkness and panic.
Tang Yuwen sneered, "I didn’t originally plan to tell you this, knowing how deeply you feel for him, knowing all the suffering you endured back then was because of him, afraid you couldn’t accept it, so I kept it from you. Now, you still persist in your infatuation with him, refusing to turn back until you hit a wall, I had no choice but to reveal this matter.
Yige, as a father, I fear you getting hurt, would rather you misunderstand me than tell you this. You don’t have children so you don’t understand how we feel for ours. But everything I’ve told you today is true, not a word of deceit."
Tang Yige’s cheeks were pale, breathing short, her eyes gradually reddening again, "...What, what did he pressure you with back then? If you didn’t comply, what would he do?"
Tang Yuwen’s eyes flashed briefly, showing sorrow, he sighed, "What else could it be besides using you and your sister to pressure me? You and your sister, are the ones I care most about in this world."
"Using me and Tang Ruan?" Tang Yige looked at him with tears, her cheeks pale as if soaked in ice water.
"Yes. Your sister was already married into the Rong Family by then, essentially in his grasp. He could treat her well, or make her life in the Rong Family unbearable.
And you, he said if I didn’t do as he said, he’d send you to jail, because you drugged him, given the Rong Family’s power, whether you could leave prison alive was uncertain." Tang Yuwen said somewhat sadly.
Tang Yige’s heart trembled, her body temperature rapidly dropped.
She never imagined, when Tang Yuwen held a press conference to announce severing father-daughter ties, the man she loved to the core was behind it...
...
Linx Hospital.
Because of that fall, Zhou Xueran’s calves and knees were badly injured, the surface of both knees was severely abraded, and both calves were bloodstained.
Fortunately, it was only external injuries, without damage to tendons and bones, resting and healing would recover in a few days.
Tang Yige went to the hospital’s payment window to pay, then went to the medicine window to get medication, and took Zhou Xueran and Tang Yuwen from the hospital, driving them back to the Tang Family.
Tang Yige and Tang Yuwen together helped Zhou Xueran onto the sofa.
Afterward, Tang Yige put the medicine prescribed by the hospital on the coffee table, explained the dosage, and prepared to leave.
"Yige..."
Zhou Xueran at this moment grabbed her hand.
Yige paused slightly, looked back at Zhou Xueran, eyes reflecting a gray-white emptiness.
Seeing her like this, Zhou Xueran suddenly didn’t know what to say, silently released her hand.
Tang Yige lowered her eyes, said nothing, turned, and left the Tang Family.
...
Half an hour has passed since Tang Yige left.
Zhou Xueran and Tang Yuwen sat in silence on the sofa for also half an hour.
Tang Yuwen’s face tightened, looking extremely serious and stern.
After glancing at Zhou Xueran, Tang Yuwen pressed his lips tightly, stood from the sofa, and was about to leave the living room.
"Why did you say it was Sinan who instigated you in the past?"
Since marrying Tang Yuwen, Zhou Xueran used a questioning tone with him for the first time.
Tang Yuwen seemed surprised Zhou Xueran spoke to him in this manner, he momentarily froze.
"Why did you lie to Yige?" Zhou Xueran said.
"..." Tang Yuwen’s brow furrowed, glaring at Zhou Xueran.
Zhou Xueran trembled slightly, instinctively lowered her head.
Seeing her like this, Tang Yuwen coldly sneered, "Didn’t you see how much that girl hates me now? This matter is the crux between her and me, if I don’t say it this way, she can hate me for a lifetime!"
Zhou Xueran tightened her grip, straightened her back, and after taking several deep breaths, gathered her courage to look at him, eyes red, "But you shouldn’t just dump dirt on someone else? Who is Rong Sinan, he is the eldest of the Rong Family, if he knows you blamed your own actions on him, do you think he’ll let us go easily?"
"Yige won’t tell him I told her."
Tang Yuwen confidently said, "Yige is smart, she knows what telling Rong Sinan about this would lead to. After all, I am her father; she wouldn’t push me to a dead end."
"...I knew you thought this way."
Zhou Xueran looked at Tang Yuwen with disappointment, "You always pride yourself on high moral standards, but everything you’re doing now goes against those words of ethics! You..."
"Enough!"
Tang Yuwen looked grim, sharply interrupted Zhou Xueran, fixed her with a fierce gaze, "Do you think I’m doing this solely for myself? Aren’t you also worried Rong Sinan isn’t sincere to Yige, thinks that sisters marrying the same man is against ethics, afraid of public shame, so you keep advising Yige to separate from Rong Sinan? Isn’t what I’m doing precisely a way to make Yige give up on Rong Sinan, avoiding what you fear might happen?"
Zhou Xueran’s face went pale, speechless as she stared at Tang Yuwen.
"By saying this, it helps to mend Yige’s relationship with me and also makes Yige turn back, separating from Rong Sinan.
A win-win situation. What am I doing wrong?" Tang Yuwen said confidently.
Zhou Xueran didn’t agree with Tang Yuwen’s words internally, but didn’t dare argue, lowered her head, silently shedding tears.
Since she married into the Tang Family at twenty-two, she’s always been in a weak position in this house, having no say, everything decided by Tang Yuwen.
She knew Tang Yuwen looked down on her timid nature, seeing her follow his arrangements without rebelling, became more casual with her.
He would shout at her often, sometimes when she responded, she might even get hit.
After being hit a few times, she then dared not say anything anymore.
Of course, when he hit her, besides Tang Yuwen and her, she didn’t dare let anyone else know, especially her two daughters.
During the time when he was addicted to drugs, sometimes when the urge struck, he’d also hit her.
She endured it all.
After all, she had endured for most of her life; enduring a bit more would pass.
Zhou Xueran wiped her eyes, asked him, "What would you like to eat for lunch? I’ll have the maid make it."
"Whatever!" Tang Yuwen coldly glanced at her, walked towards the study.
Zhou Xueran watched him walk into the study, heard the door slam shut, and her tears slipped down again.
...
Tang Yige left the Tang Family, driving aimlessly through the bustling traffic of the city’s streets.
Her entire being seemed hollow, eyes on the front of the car, but pupils unfocused, blank like a blind person.
Not knowing how long she drove like this.
The phone that was placed in the car’s compartment started ringing.
A trace of light flashed across Tang Yige’s empty eyes, she sharply inhaled, lowered her eyes to glance at the flashing phone screen in the compartment.
When she saw the familiar word on the screen, Tang Yige’s hand on the steering wheel suddenly tightened.
Tang Yige stared intently at that phone, eyes filled with hints of fear and panic.
As if afraid of something.
After a while, the phone screen darkened in front of her, Tang Yige unconsciously loosened her grip on the steering wheel.
But in less than three seconds.
She suddenly tightened her grip on the steering wheel again.
Tang Yige fearfully stared at the phone that started flashing again, her heartstrings involuntarily tightened.
This time.
Tang Yige still did not answer.
When the phone rang for the third time, Tang Yige’s face showed an extremely painful expression, just before the phone was about to return to silence, she clenched her lower jaw, swiftly reached out, took the phone out of the compartment, not giving herself any opportunity to hesitate, answered the phone.
