Chapter 482: On the Doorstep

Chapter 482 - On the Doorstep

“Doesn’t matter either way, you don’t need him!” Mrs. Tang said with a wave of her hand. “Alright, let’s put this behind us and forget about it. We’ll go with Wei to his boss in just a minute!”

Tang Yin didn’t find it very appropriate that they were using this money, but there wasn’t much she could do. This was what they got for being unlucky. Everything was just crashing down on them at once.

“Sis, cheer up, the jerk’s blind! Don’t worry, I’m a man. I’ll pay this money back to you, I promise!” Wei said as he tried to console his sister. “I won’t make things hard for you!”

“Okay.” Tang Yin nodded, feeling better. At least Wei wasn’t the type of person who’d force her into borrowing money. Just knowing that was enough for her.

The debit card was under Tang Yin’s name, and it was required for her to be there personally if they were to withdraw a sum as large as 500,000.

Mrs. Tang, Tang Yin, Wei, and Dan went to a twenty-four hour bank, and after Tang Yin made the withdrawal, they got in a taxi and made their way to where the boss lived.

“Does he live here? It looks so grand!” Mrs. Tang exclaimed as she looked at the luxurious neighborhood filled with beautiful houses and high-end facilities. She couldn’t help but feel a little envious. “I wonder when we can live in a house like that.”

“Aunt, we’re in Lead Shore! This is one of the highest class neighborhoods in the city, everybody here’s rich! Just one house costs up to tens of millions!” Wei was more familiar with the place. He’d been here a couple of times, after all.

“Tens of millions? That’s ridiculously expensive!” Mrs. Tang said in shock before turning to her daughter, sympathy and regret in her eyes. “And I thought Yin had found a nice and influential husband. I thought your uncle and I could live in places like these, but that’s impossible now.”

“Mom, what’re you saying!” Tang Yin frowned. This wasn’t something she wanted brought up. She’d rather not hear about the whole thing.

“I’ll stop, I’ll stop!” Mrs. Tang said.

But Mrs. Tang didn’t stop. She started thinking if she could go talk to Lin Yi if she had the chance, see if she could get the two back together. Rich young masters like Lin Yi usually already had a partner prepared for him by his family. Why else would he break up with Tang Yin all of a sudden for no reason? There had to be a reason.

Mrs. Tang was a seasoned woman, and she looked further than Tang Yin did. It was only natural for her to be more scheming.

She didn’t know about Xiaoxiao, so she felt like there had to be something up on the inside.

So Mrs. Tang wondered if Lin Yi could possibly be engaged? He might not be able to marry her daughter, but couldn’t he bring her home as a mistress? Yes, they were not a family who wanted much, just letting them live in this Lead Shore neighborhood was enough! If not, they needed to get a lump sum from Lin Yi. They couldn’t just let him go like that!

He may not have done anything to her daughter, but he did hurt her feelings!

Tang Yin, on the other hand, wasn’t aware of the things her mother was plotting. She was still rather innocent, and not capable of imagining the sorts of embarrassing thoughts running through her mother’s mind. She’d be quite angry if she found out.

But one couldn’t blame her mother for her mindset. She’d really had too much of a share of this cold, cruel world. Her years of suffering and poverty resulted in an urge to keep her own daughter out of that poverty, to the point where she was even satisfied with her daughter being a mistress. It wasn’t her fault that she thought this way.

“This is it!” Wei said as he pointed at a solitary villa. “Mr. Zou lives here.”

“Mom, don’t say anything after we go in! We can’t just give them the money this time. There needs to be some sort of written agreement!” Tang Yin said as she calmed herself down, breathing deeply as she regained her composure and put the events of today behind her.

Tang Yin had no experience in society, but she did attend a prestigious private high school. She’d interacted with many people and understood that there needed to be contracts to guarantee their safety.

Her father couldn’t get the compensation precisely because of a vague contract. She needed to have him write down a number this time. As long as they could make sure that Dan could get off the hook, paying up wasn’t a problem.

“Alright, I’ll listen to you.” Mrs. Tang nooded in response. She understood that her daughter was more experienced in these matters than she was.

Wei walked up and rang the doorbell.

Zou Tiandi was feeling quite troubled these past two days. He’d pissed off both Lin Yi and Li Cihua! These were men who could wipe him off this planet instantly! He didn’t even think of resisting them!

His opponents were simply too strong. Lin Yi himself was a master above the golden class, while Cihua had with him many golden class masters.

Tiandi used to have Uncle Yan backing him up, and that allowed some tyranny in Songshan, but… there just wasn’t much he dared do now that Lin Yi had disabled his trump card.

“Fuck! I’m Zou Tiandi, a damned big shot in Songshan! How have I fallen this far?” Tiandi poured himself a glass of red wine and gulped it down, depressed.

As troubled as he was, Tiandi was actually feeling rather relieved. He might’ve pissed Cihua off, but this wasn’t something that Cihua would want to kill him over. All he did was refuse to work with him, and that was it. Cihua wouldn’t come and cause him trouble for something like that. Lin Yi had promised to let him off the hook too.

He could’ve had it way worse, and he was having trouble eating and sleeping. Fortunately for him, a charming, pretty girl would be coming to his doorstep soon, something he was quite looking forward too. It would ease his troubles a little.

The doorbell rang, and Tiandi adjusted his shirt, sure that Dan had arrived. After all, he’d given Dan the final word: either she came with the money tonight or her body!

The housekeeper had gone to the door already, and Tiandi walked out his study and towards the living room, full of confidence.

Mrs. Tang, Tang Yin, Wei, and Dan were in the living room, sitting on a couch and feeling a little uncomfortable. Wei and Dan had been here a couple of times and had gotten somewhat used to it, but this was Tang Yin and Mrs. Tang’s first time in a place so luxurious. They weren’t quite sure what to do.

“That’s you, isn’t it, Dan? Is it money or your body tonight?” Tiandi said as he walked down the stairs. He looked into the living room and was slightly taken aback. The couch faced away from the stairs, so he couldn’t see the faces on those bodies.

“Mr. Zou, w-we’ve brought the money!” Wei said, standing up and turning to face Tiandi.

“What? Money?” Tiandi was shocked, so enraged steam shot out of his ears. Never would he have expected for Wei to get his hands on 500,000! How was this even possible! These guys were farmers! Even if they’d borrowed from the entire village, they couldn’t have gotten that much!

He’d made his calculations in advance, planning on drugging Dan and relieving himself from all the trouble Lin Yi had caused him these past two days. He didn’t dare do anything to Lin Yi, but Dan? Heh heh…
