Chapter 25
Who Has the Audacity to Hurt Her?
When Tong Juan saw the cars in front of her, her eyes lit up. She craned her head to try to take a look at who was inside the car. However, a few tall and burly bodyguards stood in her way and said firmly, “Please move fifteen feet backward. The person in the car is not someone whom you can look at just like this.”
“What’s so great about that person? Does the parking lot belong to you guys?” Tong Juan’s expression was extremely dark. For some reason, she was jealous and indignant. “Who are you guys? Tong Lu is my older sister. Where are you guys bringing her? Let me tell you guys. My older sister is a widow. She even has a child.”
Shi Yang furrowed his eyebrows. “Tong Juan, how could you say that?”
“Shi Yang, I said that for my older sister’s sake.” Tong Juan suddenly flashed an upset expression. “It’s not like you don’t know that my older sister would do anything for money. A few years ago, she married my dead brother-in-law for money. It’s so late at night. What if she does something improper for the sake of money?”
Tong Lu looked coldly at her. “Tong Juan, shut your mouth.”
Shi Yang’s expression turned cold. “She did that so that she could get money for her grandmother’s treatment. If your father was willing to help out, she would not have gone down that path.”
Tong Juan’s eyes became teary. “Shi Yang, what do you mean by that? Have you not forgotten my sister yet? Why should my father be responsible for the medical bills of his mistress’s mother?”
“No.” As Shi Yang looked at the fleet of Rolls-Royce that were here to fetch Tong Lu, he felt agitated for some reason. “Forget about it. Wait for me here. I’ll drive the car over.”
Tong Juan stomped her feet indignantly. As she gazed at the fleet of Rolls-Royce Phantoms before her, she suddenly felt that there was nothing special about Shi Yang’s new Mercedes-Benz at all. She then looked at Tong Lu, and she had nowhere to vent out her anger. Her heart was full of hatred of jealousy.
“Big sister, don’t tell me that you’re working part-time as a prostitute at night. Or have you become the mistress of some rich man? I didn’t know that being a mistress is an inherited trait. There’s really no difference between you and your mother.”
Tong Lu glared at Tong Juan when she heard that. “Tong Juan, you’re too much. Other people don’t know who the real mistress of my father is, but you should know it very well.”
Tong Lu’s mother married her father before she reached the legal age of marriage, so they were unable to obtain a marriage certificate. After her father became a civil servant, he got to know Tong Lu’s stepmother. He married Tong Lu’s stepmother?legally and told everyone that Tong Lu’s mother was the mistress instead. He even reduced Tong Lu’s age on her birth certificate by a year so that she appeared to be an illegitimate child who was born after her father married her stepmother.
Tong Juan became furious, and without bothering to put on a polite front, she slapped Tong Lu across the face.
This caught Tong Lu off guard, and there was a long scratch on her face. Blood gushed out of the scratch wound, and it looked grotesque.
The ring on Tong Juan’s middle finger had a sharp diamond. The bodyguards could not stop her from slapping Tong Lu in time.
Leng Yejin who was sitting up straight in the car noticed that something was happening outside the car. His expression turned dark in an instant.
He was about to get out of the car when Tong Lu entered the car and asked the driver to drive off. She did not want there to be a commotion.
Leng Yejin clutched her chin forcefully and tilted her head up. He saw that there was a scratch mark on her delicate face, and a hint of fury flashed past his eyes. How could he have allowed anyone to injure her like this when he was present?
“Secretary Yu, go ahead and scratch that woman’s face. Make sure that the scratch mark is twice as long as the one on Miss Tong’s face.”
“Forget about it.”
Leng Yejin said in a low voice. “Forget about it? Do you think that I would allow random people to hurt my daughter’s mother just like that?” contemporary romance
Tong Lu’s heart skipped a beat. Was there a hidden meaning in his words?
