Chapter 765: Compromise

“That depends on whether you’re willing to cooperate,” Tang Long said, impatiently straightening up. He called out to the kitchen, “Mom! Sister’s awake! Come and talk to her yourself!”

The sound of cooking in the kitchen abruptly stopped.

Tang’s mother turned off the gas valve, wiped the oil from her hands, and walked over with a smile, saying, “Xiao Mei, this time, listen to Mom and testify in court for your brother. Think about it, if we have money in the future, do you still need to work for someone else every day? If you like, you can start your own company and be the boss easily!”

Tang Mei’s heart ached again, and she pleaded hoarsely, “Mom, don’t let yourself be deceived by your brother. Even if we really go to court, we won’t win! He’s delusional. Are you losing your mind too?”

Tang’s mother glanced uncertainly at Tang Long. “Actually, what your sister said makes sense.”

“Mom! Didn’t we agree on this before?” Tang Long glared at her, his attitude particularly arrogant. “You can’t back out now!”

Tang’s mother regained her determination and joined her son in persuading Tang Mei. “My daughter, I think your brother is doing this for the sake of our family. Just listen to him, please? Mom is begging you.”

“He’s a boy. With your measly salary, he won’t be able to marry in the future. This is a rare opportunity! The leader in your company is so wealthy, he won’t mind compensating us a little!” Tang’s mother continued, trying to convince Tang Mei.

“Mom!” Tang Mei struggled again, feeling dizzy in her head, but the rope tied around her hands remained unmoved.

“I advise you to be sensible and obedient. You’re my sister. If anything happens in the future, it will be me taking care of you, isn’t it? Can that guy, Mei Shu, take care of you when you’re old?” Tang Long said matter-of-factly.

But Tang Mei just wanted to laugh.

A man who could hold a knife to his own mother’s neck for profit, who would tie up and coerce his own sister, actually said he would take care of her when she’s old?

Perhaps when she really needed someone to take care of her, Tang Long would wish she were dead immediately to get rid of the trouble!

” What are you thinking?” Tang Long scrutinized her with vigilance.

It seemed that although he looked down on her from the bottom of his heart for being his sister, when it came to matters of interest, he was still very wary of her thoughts.

Tang Mei said, “I can help you, but you have to promise me that after it’s done, I’ll take seventy percent of the compensation!”

“What?” Tang Long sucked in a breath of cold air.

This time, Tang’s mother stood up first to oppose, “Xiao Mei, what use do you have for so much money as a girl? You’ll definitely marry in the future. If you bring so much money to marry someone else, won’t you be giving away your money for free to outsiders?”

Tang Mei pursed her lips and didn’t say anything.

Tang’s mother continued, “But it’s different for your brother. He needs to get a wife and support our family. How can he do them without money?”

“Does he not have hands?” Tang Mei retorted mercilessly. “Tang Long and I both have two hands. Why can I earn money, take out loans, and buy a house, while he can’t? Just because he’s a man, he’s supposed to be the parasite, the useless one?”

“Who are you calling useless?” Tang Long couldn’t stand others saying that about him!

This hit him right where it hurt!

Actually, he had tried to find a job, but he had no education. The jobs he found paid little and were hard work, so he disdained them and spent his days dreaming of getting rich overnight.

Now the opportunity was right in front of him, and he had no reason to let it go!

Tang Mei didn’t care about his anger at all and even became more sarcastic in her tone, “Did I say anything wrong? You’ve been mingling in society for so long. Have you ever earned ten thousand yuan? If I hadn’t been soft-hearted and given you money all the time, you would have starved to death on the street long ago!”

“You…!” Tang Long was about to make a move.

Tang’s mother hurriedly stopped him. After hesitating for a moment, she suddenly made a decision, “Let’s do as your sister says! She’ll take seventy percent, and you’ll take thirty percent!”

“Mom!” Tang Long was desperate.

Tang’s mother gave him a meaningful look and then took the initiative to untie the hemp rope from Tang Mei’s body.

“Wait!” Tang Long went back to the bedroom, took out a contract just printed by the lawyer, and said, “You have to fingerprint this first before Mom can untie you!”

“My hands are tied.” Tang Mei said expressionlessly.

Tang Long chuckled, took out the ink pad, and pressed Tang Mei’s fingers onto it, then signed at the end of the agreement where she agreed to testify in court.

With everything settled, Tang Long happily kissed the contract, “Great, I’ll have a lot of money soon!”

Tang’s mother also took a look at the contract as if she were holding a check worth hundreds of millions.

“Good girl, Mom will release you now. Let’s have a meal together, and then we’ll go to court right away!” Tang’s mother sounded pleased and directly untied her.
