When Love Turns the Tables: The Mysterious Husband's Chase-Chapter 588: Buried Memories (Part 18)

Suddenly, Sheng Jianan couldn’t say a word. The death of Tang Ruhai and the death of Shen Wanqing—he suddenly didn’t want to tell her at all.

Sheng Jianan reached out and pulled her into his arms, his brows tightly knit. The man’s body trembled slightly, and Tang Yanqi could clearly feel that he was afraid.

"I will give you an explanation."

Tang Yanqi curved her lips, gently patting Sheng Jianan’s back. "It’s all in the past."

Sheng Jianan couldn’t understand how she could so nonchalantly say those four words, "It’s all in the past."

He held back for a moment, but couldn’t help it and opened his mouth: "It’s not just you. The Tang Family’s destruction was all her doing."

Back in the early years, when Mr. Sheng was the executor and Mr. Sheng was the decision-maker, Mrs. Sheng used all kinds of connections to suppress the Tang Family. Even when Sheng Jianan later took charge, she leveraged the network she had built in this circle to block almost all of the Tang Family’s avenues.

It was well known that the Crown Prince of Shengshi Group was her son. Between the Tang Family and Shengshi, no one would choose the Tang Family and offend the Sheng Family. Plus, with a few of Tang Ruhai’s missteps in decision-making, it sealed the fate of the Tang Group’s downfall.

If it weren’t for the subsequent marriage alliance with the Sheng Family, the Tang Group would have declared bankruptcy long ago.

And then, three years ago, they were sent on a path of no return, ultimately not even sparing anyone.

Tang Yanqi paused for a moment, then heard Sheng Jianan say: "I know you have no feelings for the Tang Family, but Tang Ruhai is still your father. Murder... Don’t you care?"

Sheng Jianan couldn’t say the words "father’s murderer" completely. He couldn’t bring himself to say, "My mother is your father’s murderer," such words—how could he say it?

Tang Yanqi was silent for a long time, finally sighing deeply: "Come lie down, I have something to tell you."

Sheng Jianan released her, moved to the other side, lifted the quilt, and lay down. Tang Yanqi lowered her eyelids, then after a long while, looked at the man beside her, quietly lamenting in her heart: Jianan, do you know that I’m also no good person?

Leaning against Sheng Jianan, Tang Yanqi slowly began to speak, recounting the agreement she had with Mrs. Sheng back then.

"At that time, she came to me, wanting me to sign the divorce papers and give up the ten percent of shares my grandfather left me. I agreed on the condition that after I left, she would help me destroy the Tang Family. So, I am also a participant in the Tang Family’s tragedy."

"What?"

Tang Yanqi laughed self-deprecatingly: "Actually, back then, the determination to leave, aside from those misunderstandings, was because my mother’s death was such a blow that I felt I couldn’t bear it."

As she spoke, Tang Yanqi raised her head, her calm eyes meeting the man’s deep dark pupils: "Jianan, you know my mother died, but you don’t know she died a terrible death."

The room suddenly fell into silence. Tang Yanqi swallowed and revealed everything: "I joined the Tang Family because Tang Ruhai and Shen Wanqing’s daughter, Tang Wan, was... and then died in a car accident. The one who kidnapped her was my mother. So, Tang Wan’s death is directly related to my mother. I only found out about these things later."

"Back then, your mother used the fact that I was the daughter of a murderer to force me to leave you. But at that time, I was selfish. You treated me well, and I was reluctant to leave. So, I tried to find an appropriate opportunity to tell you everything. If you didn’t want me because of this, then I could give up."
