The Lincoln car was parked by the roadside. Tang Wei stood beside the car, staring at Lu Beichen as she said, "Third Master Lu, your marriage certificate…"
Lu Beichen looked down at the eye-catching red booklet and said, "Just take it. I live in Lanshan Manor in A City, so I'll be heading there. You…?"
"I- I still have something to do here." Tang Wei said.
Lu Beichen nodded. "If there's anything you need from me, just contact Xiao Chen. You have to come over after your business here is settled."
She replied, "Understood."
The man nodded and got into the car.
Xiao Chen walked to her side and took out his phone. "Miss Tang, let me write down your number."
They had only been chatting through the app, so they didn't have other suitable mediums to contact each other.
"182… 3297."
"Thank you. Goodbye, Miss Tang." Xiao Chen said after he wrote down her phone number.
"Bye."
Tang Wei stood on the side of the road and watched as the car drove further and further away. Lu Beichen didn't reach out his hand to wave her goodbye.
She shrugged nonchalantly and put the two marriage certificates into her canvas bag before calling a cab.
Five minutes later, the car arrived.
"Please go to Jiayu Road."
The driver looked at her through the rearview mirror. "You must be quite a figure, right? Jiayu Road is a wealthy district, after all."
"Oh, I'm just going there for work, I don't live there." Tang Wei's lips twitched.
The driver was speechless.
She pursed her lips and looked at her phone. The director was urging her to hand in the script again. She quickly typed on the screen.
"I'll arrive at A City tomorrow."
The other party replied very quickly, "I hope you will continue to bring back surprises."
Surprises… Tang Wei smiled. Well, the script this time will really be a surprise.
Logically speaking, she was a famous screenwriter with an annual income of more than 100 million yuan. It wouldn't be a problem for her to support herself. Moreover, she didn't even need to worry about marriage yet. So why did she suddenly get married? Tang Wei thought that if her father did not always show favouritism toward Zheng Yanyan and her daughter, she wouldn't have been so disheartened. It all started because of Zheng Yanyan, who wanted to sell the book her deceased mother liked very much when she was alive, "Flowers in Dreams."
This book was written by the famous writer Mu De and was bought for nearly 2 billion yuan. When she asked for the book, Zheng Yanyan refused to give it to her. Her daughter, Zheng Min, was even more rude.
In a fit of anger, she slapped Zheng Min's face. Zheng Min, who could have fought back, did not retaliate. She did not think too much about it and only focused on snatching the book. Coincidentally, her father returned at that time. Knowing this, Zheng Yanyan revealed a triumphant smile as she made herself roll down the stairs. Blood flowed from her forehead to the ground.
When that happened, Tang Wei held the book and stood rooted to the ground. On the other hand, her father's anxious voice and Zheng Min's crying could be heard. When they passed by her ear, Zheng Min had whispered, "You're finished. Today is the day you will be kicked out."
Tang Wei instantly understood what it meant for them to do this right when her father came back. They had planned this in advance. Their goal was to let their father see this scene to make him hate her.
Moreover, her two brothers and her younger brother in high school did not believe her as well. In their eyes, she was just a slut who smoked and drank in bars. How could she be as kind and gentle as their stepsister, Zheng Min? She also had many talents. Her younger brother in high school liked his stepsister even more because his classmates praised him for having a good sister who could explain questions well and sing. His classmates never knew that he had an ignorant and incompetent sister like Tang Wei!
There was one time when she couldn't help but ask them why they didn't love her, their own biological sister, and insisted on doting on their stepsister, who had only been with them for less than a month!
As a reply to this, her second brother bluntly told her, "Try finding a man who doesn't care about reputation before asking that. Don't you know how humiliating you are to us? Just let Minmin replace you from now on."
She looked at her big brother, who was surprisingly silent.
At that time, Tang Wei was only 18 years old. The reason why she was ignorant and incompetent at that time was because her father had remarried. Alas, she didn't expect things to turn out like this. Later, when she saw her family's harmonious appearance, she went back to her bedroom numbly. Her family treated her like an outsider, and she couldn't even do things freely.
Tang Wei silently wiped her tears and swallowed the grievances that were stuck in her throat. It didn't matter. Now, she wanted to leave the Tang family completely. She didn't want the so-called familial love anymore.
She had checked the situation in advance. Her two brothers and younger brother were not around today, so she did not have to be questioned by them.
Ten minutes later.
"We're here." The chauffeur's tone was indifferent.
Tang Wei opened the door, paid the fee, and got out of the car.
She turned around and looked at the words 'Tang Residence' on the house, which stifled her heart. Those two words were handwritten by her mother.
She walked toward the door but was stopped by the guard.
"Miss, please wait here. I'll inform Madam of your return first." The security guard looked at her and said in a troubled tone.
Tang Wei did not force him and nodded.
It seemed that Zheng Yanyan had given all the servants a lesson when she left home the day before yesterday.
After a while, the security guard opened the door. "Miss, please come in."
She entered the door and met several unfamiliar faces. She sneered and walked into the living room.
The woman on the sofa was sitting in front of the coffee table, dressed neatly and sipping tea. She looked extremely comical.
"What a fake."
No matter how much she tried, in the end, it was still just pure imitation.
Zheng Yanyan acted as if she did not hear Tang Wei's words. She turned around and said, "I thought you had backbone and wouldn't come back. Why? You still can't bear to leave the Tang family? No matter how much you can't bear to leave, this place belongs to us now. Your father has already chased you out."
"Oh."
Tang Wei said lightly and went upstairs.
Zheng Yanyan put down her teacup and stood up immediately. "What do you mean by 'Oh'? What are you planning?"
Tang Wei walked in front and sneered. "I thought you could pretend to be elegant for a longer time, but I guess I was wrong."
Her words hit Zheng Yanyan right on her sore spot. She hated it when people said she was pretending to be elegant. Although she was born in a brothel, she already knew a lot of things. Moreover, every time there was a gathering, the other rich ladies would always praise her manners and attitude. Of course, that was with the exception of a few b*tches who had no taste.
Tang Wei pushed open her bedroom door. Most of the things inside had been moved. She took a deep breath, walked to the wall beside the bed and knocked on it, taking out a small hammer.
When Zheng Yanyan saw this scene, she shouted, "What do you think you're doing? Get out!"
"Dong dong dong…"
Tang Wei didn't care about the woman's crazy screams as she knocked on the door carefully with the hammer.
Zheng Yanyan grabbed Tang Wei's arm and said harshly, "B*tch, I'm talking to you right now. Are you deaf? Can't you hear me?"
Tang Wei's actions forcefully came to a halt. Her expression turned cold as she shook Zheng Yanyan off without a word.
However, Zheng Yanyan was too fat. Tang Wei had already flung her arms away, but she was still taking up space in front of her. Tang Wei narrowed her eyes and said coldly, "You'd better not disturb me. Otherwise, the more you pester me, the more I won't leave the Tang family."
Zheng Yanyan hurriedly took a few steps back. Was what she said true?
Although Tang Di said that he wanted to kick Tang Wei out of the house, he still couldn't bear to do it. After all, she was his biological daughter. However, it would be different if Tang Wei took the initiative to leave by herself.
Zheng Yanyan calculated in her heart. This way, she wouldn't have to take the initiative to find trouble with Tang Wei every time Tang Di came back. This was a much better approach, considering how taking the initiative to fall down the stairs back then was already worthwhile.
