Chapter 485 - Upset

It didn’t matter what Tang Yin’s goal was. If she was asking for an agreement to be written on paper then Tiandi would do everything he could to fulfill it, not thinking much about it at all. He only a.s.sumed that Tang Yin put more emphasis on the details.

But if he were dealing with Lin Yi, things wouldn’t be this civilized. The guy wouldn’t ask him for writing at all, he’d destroy his hands and legs so he wouldn’t be able to!

Tiandi not only wrote down on paper that he’d never cause Dan and Wei any trouble in the future, he even gave the original contract he’d signed with Dan back to her, meaning that she no longer had anything to do with him.

Tang Yin breathed a sigh of relief as she took the contract. Not wanting to stay in Tiandi’s house any longer, she nodded her head and turned to her mom. “Let’s go then.”

“Wait!” Tiandi called out to the Tangs.

Tang Yin froze. Had Tiandi figured something out? That they had nothing on him?

“Mr. Zou, are you going back on your word?” Tang Yin turned around and made her voice as collected as she possible. Mrs. Tang, Wei, and Dan paled, still facing away from Tiandi without turning around, fortunately.

“No, no, you’ve misunderstood, Sister Tang!” Tiandi was given a fright as he explained himself. “I just want to have my chauffeur drive you home. It’s really late, and it’s not safe, especially when you’re carrying money on you!”

It wasn’t Tiandi’s fault for being a busybody. He simply had no choice! It really was true that it’d be unsafe for the Tangs to go out at night with a total of 700,000 yuan along with the 200,000 he gave back to them. If anything like a mugging happened to them, Tiandi would be fully f.u.c.ked if Lin Yi thought he was responsible for sending the muggers.

So he had no choice but to prove his innocence. He wouldn’t be able to rest easy unless he himself saw them back home safely.

“I see, that works,” Mrs. Tang said, agreeing that it was rather unsafe for them this late at night.

Tiandi quickly contacted his chauffeur after Mrs. Tang agreed, telling him to drive the company SUV over. He then put on his jacket, preparing to see the Tangs home.

“Mr. Zou, you get some rest. We’ll be fine on our own.” Tang Yin didn’t want Tiandi following around. It’d be bad if he noticed something. “What if Lin Yi sees you and gets angry again?”

“What?” Tiandi jumped in fright at what Tang Yin said. Now that he thought about it, that really did seem like the case. Lin Yi would let the whole thing slide after a couple days if he never saw him, but he might very well give him a beating if he did! Tiandi quickly thanked Tang Yin. “Thank you, Sister Tang! I was being illogical, I apologize. If that’s the case, then I’ll just walk you to the door. I really want to see you home, but it’s just too dangerous for me!”

Mrs. Tang, Wei, and Dan let out a sigh of relief, while Mrs. Tang turned around all of a sudden, very confident. “It’s fine. You’re not a brave one, are you? I’ll tell my son-in-law to leave you alone!”

“Oh! Thank you, Aunty, thank you!” Tiandi said, overjoyed. This is what he’d been waiting for!

Tiandi’s chauffeur arrived a short while later. He gave him a couple of instructions, telling him to treat the Tangs with more respect than he’d treat Tiandi himself before letting him drive them home, relieved.

Tiandi’s chauffeur was a responsible one, deciding to let the cha.s.sis of the car sc.r.a.pe against the dirt road as long as he got the Tangs back home safely. He went back after making sure he’d finished his duty.

The Tangs, meanwhile, sighed after entering the house. The performance they’d put on was successful, and the happiest was none other than Mrs. Tang. Not only did they not have to pay up, they even got 200,000 back! It was a gift from G.o.d!

“Mom, what were you thinking? I’ve got nothing to do with Lin Yi now, why did you tell him he was your son-in-law? You’re just making it hard for me!” Tang Yin said, feeling rather embarra.s.sed and awkward about the whole thing.

She didn’t want to throw away what little remained of her self-esteem by using Lin Yi’s name for her own benefit. The guy didn’t want him anymore, and it’d be rather shameless for her to run around using his name, wouldn’t it? Tang Yin felt a little humiliated.

“So what!” Mrs. Tang didn’t quite share Tang Yin’s concerns. “That Mr. Zou doesn’t know anyway. By the way, Yin, are things still possible between you and Lin Yi? Why did he leave you?”

“Uh…” Tang Yin uttered, embarra.s.sed and not very keen on talking about Lin Yi, especially when Wei and Dan stood there watching. She just couldn’t bring herself to do it.

Wei was a bit curious himself as to why Lin Yi had broken up with Tang Yin. He wanted them to get back together, and decided to stay and listen.

That look on his cousin’s face, however, told him that this was something embarra.s.sing for her. He couldn’t stay, knowing that. He stood up and held Dan’s hand. “Well, we’ll be leaving then, Aunty.”

“Be careful on the way back! Call me after getting home!” Mrs. Tang said as she walked the couple out of the house before coming back in to hold Tang Yin’s hands. “Yin, tell me. What happened? Lin Yi was pretty nice to you all this time, wasn’t he? I didn’t feel anything wrong this morning! What happened, all of a sudden?”

“Mom… H-He has a girlfriend… She transferred to our school and is sitting next to him, even…” Tang Yin said with a red face, upset as her mom pressured her with questions. “Mom, why did he come and get me involved when he has a girlfriend already?”

Tang Yin lost her strength in front of her mother. She laid on her mom’s lap and started to cry.

“Don’t cry, Yin,” Mrs. Tang sighed. This was close to what she was epecting. It wasn’t that Lin Yi didn’t like her daughter anymore! The offical girlfriend had charged in and forced Lin Yi to break up with Tang Yin!

“Mom, what’s wrong with him? Why’d he come to me when he has a girlfriend, it’s so embarra.s.sing! How am I supposed to live like this?” Tang Yin said, getting more upset by the second.

“Yin!” Mrs. Tang sighed. “It’s all my fault, my fault for being poor. If we were a rich family, Lin Yi wouldn’t be able to break up with you! This girlfriend of his, she’s from a rich family, isn’t she? It’s likely the wife that Lin Yi’s family arranged for him.”

“Yeah, she drives a sports car to school.” Tang YIn nodded, not lying.

“You see? Why else would Lin Yi break up with you so suddenly, out of nowhere?” Mrs. Tang said as she stroked her daughter’s head and shook her own. “Did his girlfriend talk to you?”

“Yeah, she did…” Tang Yin got even more upset when Xiaoxiao was brought up. “She said that I didn’t know my boundaries, and that she wanted to let me be the mistress… She said she doesn’t want to let me even have that position because I want to take in Yi for my own. Hmph, who’d ever wanna be a mistress!”
