Chapter 33: You Think you’re really my brother

Chapter 33

"What did you say?"

Shen Tang cleaned out her ears, not believing what she just heard.

Wang Brother repeated, "You go online and explain to everyone that this was an accident, then provide a letter of understanding."

Shen Tang was about to laugh from anger. She pointed at her own face, "Can't you see my face is injured like this?"

If not for her strong physique, her face would have been completely ruined, who knows if she would even be alive.

Wang Brother solemnly said: "I'm doing this for your sake. You're already injured anyway, retaliation is meaningless. Why not take this chance to gain some benefits for paving the way for the future?"

Shen Tang coldly laughed, "I refuse!"

Wang Brother was about to speak again when Shen Tang snapped, "Moreover, I wonder if the benefits are even for me?"

Shen Tang was just testing the waters, she didn't expect Wang Brother's eyes to actually flicker with evasion.

How dare he! She didn't even want to be the stepping stone for the female lead, let alone let others step on her to move up in the world!

"You listen to me—"

"Wang Brother, I called you that because I looked up to you. Did you think you were really my brother? Let alone my actual brother would never do something like this, clinging onto me and sucking my blood dry. You wish beautifully!" Shen Tang said.

Wang Brother's expression drastically changed, "You ungrateful bitch!"

"Yes I am, lalalala!" Shen Tang provocatively responded.

Wang Brother was furious and charged over to hit Shen Tang. Xiao Yu sent him flying with a kick, crashing into the cabinet behind them.

Shen Tang's eyes widened in amazement, extremely impressed, "Whoa!"

Wang Brother held his chest coughing nonstop, "You... You..."

Xiao Yu put her long leg down, "He was going to hit you."

"Yeah, thanks for helping just now!" Shen Tang said.

Although she could've beaten him herself.

Shen Tang clicked her tongue, "As expected a dog can't change its habit to eat shit. Don't bother calling me in the future if there's nothing important going on. Oh right, even if something comes up, still don't call me!"

"I'll boycott you! I'm boycotting you!" Wang Brother said covering his chest, breathing heavily.

Damn, why was Shen Tang so disobedient now? He should've...

A flash of viciousness appeared in Wang Brother's eyes.

Shen Tang accurately captured it. She pretended to be scared, "Oh my, I'm so frightened!"

Her contract was going to end soon anyway. Boycott? Who's afraid of whom!

Besides, her cheap hubby is still around. He probably won't stand by right?

The two turned to leave. As soon as they opened the door, a woman came tumbling down.

The few sized each other up in awkward silence.

The woman embarrassedly laughed, "Uh...lost my footing..."

Shen Tang smirked, "Oh, do be more careful from now on."

Shen Tang played it off with a dry laugh, "What I can say is... I do like him quite a lot..."

Technically, this wasn't lying since she neither confirmed nor denied any relationship.

Liking him isn't false at all either. Gu Huaian is so handsome, her biggest hope right now is to sleep with a man like him once before she dies.

Only then did the line of questioning shift to details about her assault incident.

Shen Tang provided full disclosure.

Someone from the crowd said, "Shen Tang, don't you think you went a bit overboard? Li Xing wouldn't have tried to beat you to death if you didn't push her past her breaking point."

Shen Tang's expression darkened, "Who said that?"

No reaction from the crowd.

"Have the guts to speak up?"

"Why should I reflect on myself and search my conscience? I gave her a chance but she repeatedly bullied me! So I should just put up with it? I owe her?"

Normally in the public eye, it would be bad to say something like this. Most prefer to save face.

But Shen Tang refused to fall into the trap of hypocrisy.

"Report however you wish. But I'll advise that truthfully reporting would be best. The legal department of the Gu Corporation doesn't show mercy!"

She'd just go all-in on a bluff!

There was no harm in intimidating others with what they already know!

Subsequently, Shen Tang deliberately left what Wang Brother told her rather vague, giving the crowd some room for imagination.

By the time Wang Brother hobbled downstairs, baring the pain from Xiao Yu's kick, Shen Tang promptly concluded the interview.

Upon returning to her villa, Uncle He from the main house visited.

Although of the same flesh and blood, the He brothers resembled each other only in form but differed entirely in temperament. One stern, the other warm.

"Madam." He Uncle greeted.

"Uncle He." Shen Tang responded.

Shen Tang couldn't comprehend the purpose of Uncle He's visit, leaving her rather tense.

Seeing the pile of stuff and black card brought out by Uncle He, she came to some realization.

"Lady ordered these sent specially after hearing of your injury. She's quite concerned."

Shen Tang hadn't expected news to travel as far back as the Gu's main house. Were her other scandals also made known there?

Her nerves couldn't help but be set on edge.

"Please extend my gratitude to Mother and Uncle for me."

Was it her imagination or did Uncle He's mouth twitch just now?

Indeed, Shen Tang held grudges.

Moreover, why call someone 'Dad' when they don't even acknowledge her!

"I'll convey it accordingly."
