Chapter 45 - JUST A SMALL ROLE

The scene fell silent for a few seconds. Even if Tang Li Xue had a quick wit, she couldn't immediately understand what Tang Yutong was up to.

Tang Yutong glanced at Tang Li Xue with some disdain and deliberately tapped the spoon in front of her. "You said you came to me with evidence. Now that I'm here, where is the evidence?"

"Sister, I came here today to tell you that Dad had previously said we should stay away from Mo Jin. But at that time, I didn't take it to heart. Who knew..."

Seeing Tang Li Xue's teary-eyed appearance about to start again, Tang Yutong couldn't help but rub her forehead and interrupted in time, "Don't cry first. How come I didn't know about this?"

She was the young miss of the Tang family. How could she not have known her own father's instructions?

Tang Li Xue was stunned. This was different from what she had guessed before. What should she do next?

Originally, He Muyun thought that at this point, Tang Yutong should hate Mo Jingyan to the bone, so all she needed to do was to stir up a few more words to make it happen. Who would have thought that Tang Yutong would be so calm?

Tang Yutong patiently waited for a few minutes, but Tang Li Xue still couldn't make herself clear.

Turning her gaze slightly, since Tang Li Xue couldn't explain it clearly, she would do it herself. "I remember hearing that your mother has a relative who works in an international group in Nanyang." What relative? Tang Yutong deliberately brought up this vague memory to see Tang Li Xue's reaction.

"What? What relative? How come I don't know?" Sure enough, when Tang Li Xue heard the key words, her hands trembled and her eyes flickered. Tang Yutong instantly became certain.

It turned out that someone was really behind this.

"You don't know, so why are you so excited? I was just asking casually."

Seeing Tang Li Xue, who had just drank a cup of coffee due to nervousness, Tang Yu Tong couldn't help but remind her. This girl's mental state was really not that good.

"You asked me to come here just to say this?" Tang Yu Tong sneered, regretting coming here if this was all there was. There was no useful information at all.

"My mother and I are also worried about you. We're afraid that you won't be able to handle the truth, so we wanted to meet with you and show our concern." Tang Yu Tong glanced at Tang Li Xue skeptically. Why didn't she believe her?

Without exposing Tang Li Xue, Tang Yu Tong casually made an excuse and left. As she turned around, her gentle gaze suddenly changed.

Tilting her head slightly, her eyes filled with coldness as she glanced at Tang Li Xue. The latter was drinking coffee absentmindedly, probably feeling a little uneasy after the subtle questioning just now.

Tang Yu Tong smirked, full of mockery. She really was a woman with big breasts and no brains, but unfortunately, she had neither.

Leaving the coffee shop, Tang Yu Tong's expression remained indifferent. Now she was sure that Tang's father's death was definitely related to He Mu Yun.

Sitting in the car, Tang Yu Tong rested her head on the steering wheel, frowning and closing her eyes for a long time. Her knuckles turned white from gripping the steering wheel too tightly. When she opened her eyes again, her determination for revenge was unwavering.

"Dad, don't worry. I won't let you die in vain. I will make those who hurt you pay the price they deserve."

Later, Tang Yutong drove away in her car.

Tang Li Xue, who was sitting in the café, had been secretly observing Tang Yutong's reaction until she saw her car leave. Only then did Tang Li Xue breathe a sigh of relief.

"Ring!" Suddenly, her phone in her bag rang, startling Tang Li Xue.

"Hello, Mom, you scared me," Tang Li Xue answered the phone and couldn't help but complain.

She thought it was Tang Yutong calling.

He Mu Yun called to ask her daughter how things were going.

Now that she heard Tang Li Xue's tone, she became nervous.

"What's wrong? Is there a problem? Did Tang Yutong not believe you?"

If Tang Yutong didn't believe her, she could create other evidence.

"No, I'll tell you when I get back."

Tang Li Xue didn't want to stay in the café for another minute. She always felt like there were eyes watching her in the dark. She quickly grabbed her bag and left in a hurry.

Just as Tang Li Xue's figure disappeared from the café, a person walked out from behind a flowerpot on the left side of her seat.

Their gaze was always fixed on Tang Li Xue's back, while reporting to the person on the other end of the phone.

When Tang Yutong returned to the villa, Mo Jin had already come back from the company.

Pushing open the door to the living room, Tang Yutong saw Mo Jin on the phone and didn't disturb him.

"Got it, keep following," Mo Jin noticed that Tang Yutong had come back and gave a brief order before hanging up the phone.

"This has to do with He Muyun," Tang Yutong said eagerly, taking a big gulp of water and wiping her mouth casually.

Mo Jin remained silent, knowing that Tang Yutong had more to say.

Sure enough, after a brief pause, Tang Yutong turned her face away and said awkwardly, "I hope you can help me with this. Don't worry, I won't let you help me for nothing. Money is not a problem, how much do you want?"

Tang Yutong spoke too quickly and suddenly realized that she had forgotten that she was no longer the young lady of the Tang family. She not only had to bear the debt of her brother, but also had no money to pay Mo Jin for his help. She regretted it and bit her lip secretly.

Mo Jin saw through the situation without showing any reaction, "How much do I want?" he said, half-questioning and half-sarcastic.

However, since the words had already been spoken, there was no possibility of taking them back. Tang Yutong sat up straight, raised her neck and said confidently, "Don't worry, I will work and earn money to pay you back."

"She can never earn enough to pay me back," Mo Jin sneered inwardly, but he got up and sat down next to Tang Yutong, who immediately leaned back in defense, "What do you want to do? I'm telling you, I won't trade with you in that way because of this."

This suddenly piqued Mo Jin's interest. He had only intended to help wipe the water off her mouth, but now it seemed like a good opportunity to push this little woman down. "What trade? I haven't thought about it," he said.

Tang Yutong instantly understood what it meant to dig one's own grave. "I...I didn't say anything."

Damn it, why does this man seem to be walking hormones, making it hard to control oneself between his words and breaths.

It's really overwhelming.

"By the way, what should we do?" He Mu Yun, a woman who has been in the Tang family for decades, is also not to be underestimated in terms of her methods.

Unlike Tang Yutong's vague worries, Mo Jin is indifferent and puts He Mu Yun's information on the table, "Just a small role."

The contempt is evident.
