Chapter 147.
"Third sister, you drink tea."
"Third sister, please sit down. Standing is so tiring."
Jin Shuxue is much more knowledgeable and interesting than Tang Xueming, and can be classified as a normal human being. However, there is one thing she is not good at. She is a love brain. It was unknown what charm Tang Xueming has. He can actually marry women with better conditions than him many times in a row. After being deceived, Tang Duoduo's mother did not know until her death that her husband, who had shared the same bed for many years, would be a duplicitous villain. Now his wife became Jin Shuxue. She saw Tang Xueming's true face, but Jin Shuxue was reluctant to let go. She comforted herself in her heart to endure it and turn a blind eye for the sake of her family and her children.
But when Jin Shuxue received the call from the police, she felt her blood pressure soar in an instant, and her breathing almost stopped.
She came from a good background and had been a good girl since she was a child. She was known as a good child by others. She never thought that one day she would receive a call from the police. The most important thing was that her husband had committed a crime. This made Jin Shuxue unable to bear this blow.
Her hands were shaking while driving. Not long after she entered the police station, Jin Shuxue was waiting for Tangli.
This was not the first time Jin Shuxue met Tang Li. Every time she met her, Jin Shuxue's instinct warned her not to provoke Tang Li, so Jin Shuxue's charming temperament did not dare to complain to Tang Li.
She spoke flatteringly to Tangli. Tangli's eyes did not waver at all. She lazily raised her chin and motioned to Jin Shuxue to sit down and stop being a maid. This is a new modern society and there is no need for a maid to serve her.
Jin Shuxue sat down on the chair with her butt hunched over. It was not that Jin Shuxue was hopeless and had given up. Who made Tang Xueming break the agreement? And according to what the police said, it was Tang Xueming who did it first, so it's unreasonable, and Tangli's aura is so strong that Jin Shuxue, a social little platinum who has not experienced many things, will naturally not be able to handle it.
Tang Li has no feelings for Jin Shuxue. Although this person is Tang Duoduo's stepmother in name, she has a good heart. According to the plot, Jin Shuxue is more qualified than Tang Xueming. At least she took the initiative to go to her hometown to see Tang Duoduo, but they were all prevaricated by Tang Xueming.
Why did Tang Xueming change his attitude so drastically?
To put it bluntly, it was caused by the education of the native family, and it was also caused by Tang Xueming's own problems.
He has three older sisters, a typical family atmosphere that favors sons over daughters. How can you expect him to become a good bamboo shoot under a bad bamboo? This is impossible, unless he can personally taste the pain, otherwise Tang Xueming will not think of repenting.
If a child from a family like this has a conscience and is kind, he will grow up to be a person who loves and cares about his sister and hates this kind of family atmosphere.
Then on the contrary, you will become a person like Tang Xueming.
Tang Li was holding a disposable water cup, and the hot water was scalding her fingers. She suddenly said something to Jin Shuxue, "Do you understand Tang Xueming?"
Jin Shuxue frowned in confusion, "He is my husband, of course I understand."
After hearing this, Tang Li knew that Jin Shuxue had not found out about Tang Xueming's company. She smiled and asked, "Although you and Tang Xueming are not in the same company, your father is the veteran of the company, ask him."
"Third sister, why did you bring up the matter of Xueming Company?" Jin Shuxue obviously hadn't noticed Tangli's reminder, she was just confused.
Tang Li sighed, no wonder she fell in love with Tang Xueming. This man must have spotted Jin Shuxue's stupidity before approaching her.
"Call and ask first. You will understand then."
Jin Shuxue nodded and said "Oh", took out her mobile phone and saw that it was out of battery and turned off. She said helplessly, "Third sister, can I use your mobile phone?"
Tangli crossed her legs and handed her the phone.
The other party didn't answer at first, but Jin Shuxue insisted on calling several times, and the other party finally got through.
She said coquettishly, "Dad, it's me, Shuxue. My mobile phone is out of battery. It's really hard to call you from someone else's mobile phone. Why didn't you just answer the call now?"
Tangli took a sip of water and stared at the door in front of her, waiting for Lin Chu to finish recording. As for Jin Shuxue next to her, Tangli had already guessed her reaction.
The smile on Jin Shuxue's face was quickly taken over by panic. She looked horrified and her eyes were wide open. She said in a trembling voice, "Dad, is everything you said true?"
Her father has such a daughter, how can he bear to see his daughter being deceived by the ambitious Tang Xueming. Although he has retired, there are still his acquaintances in the company, and it is not a difficult thing to know about the company's affairs at the first time.
An acquaintance in the company hesitated and told him about the matter. He got angry and scolded him and said it was hard to be obedient. He planned to contact Tang Xueming but no one answered. He wanted to call his daughter immediately, but his wife stopped him. She told him that since this matter has already happened, he should first ask Tang Xueming to find out. Then it would not be too late to tell his daughter, so as not to make her sad. The prerequisite is that Tang Xueming has the upper hand.
How did he know that when his daughter calls, her father can't hold it in anymore and told the whole truth.
Jin Shuxue was completely lost and her eyes were red. She could no longer hold the phone with her right hand, but she didn't dare to throw it away because it was Tangli's phone.
She pretended to be calm and said to her father, "Dad, don't worry, I will handle this matter well."
After hanging up the phone, Jin Shuxue returned the phone to Tang Li and said with a wry smile, "Third sister, you must have reminded me of this matter after you found out about it."
Tang Li did not deny it, "There is strength in numbers. I happened to have a friend in that company. She shared gossip with me when she had nothing to do. It turned out that the person involved in the gossip was Tang Xueming."
Of course this is false. Tangli doesn't have this friend, so she will know it's because of 001.
Jin Shuxue held her forehead, bent over in pain, and cried.
"How could this be? It turns out he had an affair with more than one woman..."
Tang Li was speechless and choked, and complained, "A person who can't even maintain the most basic loyalty, what do you want him to do? Do you want to keep him to make yourself angry?"
Jin Shuxue choked up and said, "But... but I love him."
Tangli couldn't help but laugh, "Others said so too."
Jin Shuxue stopped crying, raised her head slowly, and said with tears in her eyes, "Is this the same when you comfort your wife?"
"That's definitely not the case. What's your relationship with me? We're just strangers. Do you expect strangers to care about you? Jin Shuxue, stop being naive."
Tangli smiled softly, her eyebrows curved, but the temperature under her eyes was cold and indifferent. Her smile was just an illusion of politeness, and her eyes could not deceive others.
She stood up, put one hand in her pocket and threw the disposable water cup into the trash can. Her long hair was disheveled and her expression was lazy, as if nothing could attract her attention.
Jin Shuxue did not receive Tang Li's care, but instead heard her taunts. For a moment, the tears in her eyes were neither neither crying, nor not crying.
She sniffed and controlled her emotions. She didn't want to be looked down upon by Tang Li, but in fact Tang Li didn't care too much about her. Being able to remind her about the company's affairs was Tang Li's kindness.
Tangli leaned against the wall and waited quietly for Lin Chu.
She lowered her eyes and looked at the camera at home, and was relieved to know that Tang Duoduo was sitting cross-legged on the sofa watching cartoons.
Tangli put the phone back into her bag and continued to wait for Lin Chu with her arms crossed over her chest.
Fortunately, this time was not long. Lin Chu was sent out by the police.
"Baby!"
Tangli's eyes suddenly brightened, and her brows stretched out, revealing tenderness. She raised her spirits and no longer relaxed as before. Tangli hurried towards Lin Chu, her arms covering Lin Chu's shoulders, asking softly, "Are you okay?"
The police couldn't help but look over and saw that she was fine. The one who was in trouble was Tang Xueming, who was not awake yet.
Lin Chu held her hand and comforted her, "I'm fine. Did Duoduo notice?"
Tangli smiled brightly, "She was very well-behaved. She didn't see you at first, so she asked me a few questions. I said you had an appointment with a friend, and the other party needed your help in an emergency, so Duoduo didn't see you after school."
"That's good. It's best not to let Duoduo know about Tang Xueming and me, so as not to make the child worried."
Tangli told Lin Chu what she had seen before, "We are not at home, and Duoduo is very happy. She was sitting on the sofa eating potato chips and chocolate. Let's see how I deal with her when I get back."
Lin Chu joked, "When faced with Duoduo's sugar-coated bullets, you have no lethality at all, and yet you are still trying to deal with her."
Tangli was exposed by Lin Chu. She held her neck and said harshly, "Isn't there still you?"
This is a very common and ordinary sentence, but it is very provocative and cannot be said casually to others. It can only be said without hesitation in front of the closest and most trusted people.
Leave it to her to do what you can't do yourself.
When Tangli, who has a strong personality, learns to show weakness, it means that she has shown her sincerity.
Lin Chu smiled happily, nodded and said, "Yes, there is also me. I will help Xiaoli clean up Duoduo."
"Yeah!" Tangli responded obediently, holding Lin Chu's shoulders and said to the police, "Can we leave now?"
"Sure."
"Thanks."
Tang Li and Lin Chu did not stay here. They turned to leave together, but heard Jin Shuxue ask: "Third sister, I know you have the ability. Do you... do you have a trustworthy lawyer to recommend?"
Tang Li glanced sideways and said with a smile, "Yes, there are, but they are just divorce lawyers who specialize in divorce cases. What do you want?"
Jin Shuxue gritted her teeth and said with a heartbeat, "Yes!"
Lin Chu was quite surprised. What happened when she was taking the notes? How could Jin Shuxue be divorced in the blink of an eye?
Tang Li looked for the business card in her bag and handed it to Jin Shuxue, "This is her business card. She is a well-known lawyer in the industry. It is your choice whether you would like to call her."
Jin Shuxue pinched the business card hard. She looked at the name on it for a long time and felt that she could hardly recognize the words, so she subconsciously raised her head and called Tang Li. Only then did she realize that the two women had left.
"Tang Xueming's family members? Come here, he is awake."
She exhaled, put the business card in her bag, and said in a deep voice, "Okay, I understand."
What choice she will make will be unknown.
Tangli doesn't care about outsiders's affairs at all.
As soon as Lin Chu got on the passenger seat, she was kissed by Tang Li. The space in the small passenger seat was narrow, and the two of them were tightly entwined. There were people walking beside the car, but this little incident would not let Tang Li stop.
She kissed Lin Chu. After getting the kiss she wanted, Tangli did not do anything more extreme. She distanced herself from Lin Chu and caught a glimpse of Lin Chu's red lips. Tangli's heartstrings moved slightly and she lowered her head. Another light peck, she laughed softly and said, "Lovely baby."
"Why are you so crazy? You scared me!" Lin Chu accused Tangli of being domineering. She had just gotten in the car and had not even had time to take a breath when she was treated like this by Tangli. Lin Chu glared at her, beautiful eyes don't seem to be angry at all, but more like teasing.
Tang Li chuckled and whispered, "Occasionally, there has to be a surprise."
"Only surprise, no joy!"
Tang Li snorted dissatisfiedly, "Why aren't you happy? I think you are quite involved."
Lin Chu wiped her lips and said angrily, "Then I will show resistance next time?"
"It's better not to do that. I like to follow my sister Chuchu the most."
It was unknown if it's 001's bad taste. In this world, Lin Chu is three years older than Tangli. Every time Tangli calls her sister, she is not polite at all, and Lin Chu always sneers. She asked Tang Li that this was her attitude towards her sister?
At this time, Tangli would say, "You are a lover's sister but not a biological sister. How can she do it without being domineering?"
Lin Chu was speechless. She wanted to continue talking but had no chance to speak because Tangli had already kissed her again.
Lin Chu rolled her eyes at Tangli, pushed her arm away, "Go home, it's already dark. I don't feel at ease with Duoduo being alone at home."
Tangli returned to her seat, stretched, and said, "A villain who can develop viruses to bring about the apocalypse in the future, you actually worry about her safety at home."
"The future is the future, and the present is now. Duoduo will never be hurt again, she will always yearn for the light, and there will be no villain Tang Duoduo." Lin Chu recalled the first half of Tang Duoduo's life written in the plot, she was heartbroken and had no good impression of those relatives who looked on coldly, especially her heartless father.
Lin Chu said angrily, "If I had known, I would have pinched a needle in my hand and stuck him into a vegetative state."
"No matter what he does, Tang Xueming doesn't need us to do anything. He will kill himself."
Tang Li thought of his out-of-control behavior today and couldn't help but said, "Tang Xueming suddenly went to the kindergarten today just because of Duoduo. He did this just to threaten me. Didn't he think that the something at the company had something to do with me, right?"
She has a keen insight, coupled with the causes and consequences, she can easily piece together the purpose of Tang Xueming's visit.
Not only her, but Lin Chu and Tang Li also thought of going together.
Lin Chu nodded and agreed, "That's for sure."
"Hey, if I take action, I won't let him die just in the company, I will let him die in the entire Internet." Tang Li said disdainfully.
Lin Chu patted her arm and urged, "Hurry up and drive, go home."
Tangli leaned towards her and said, "Kiss me and I'll drive."
Lin Chu smiled helplessly, "There's really nothing I can do about you."
She kissed Tang Li's cheek. A scene like this had happened many times.
Tang Duoduo often hears Lin Chu's words, so when she doesn't know how to refute Ji Wenzhu in kindergarten, Tang Duoduo will imitate Lin Chu's words.
"Drive!"
Having come to this world by rescuing the villain department, this is not a world of retirement. For Tang Li and Lin Chu, it should be a world of mutual healing.
Tang Duoduo led them to see the strange world of children.
And they will protect Tang Duoduo and keep this child who has suffered a lot in the first half of her life away from the sorrow.
Conflicts cannot be avoided in the lives of three people.
But they love each other, and conflicts will not push them away, but will unite them even more.
This is family.
When Tangli drove home, it was already dark.
It was raining lightly outside, and the sudden flash of lightning was so loud that Tang Duoduo couldn't help but tremble, holding the potato chips in her hand.
She frowned, slightly uneasy, "Why aren't aunt and sister Chuchu back? It's raining and thundering."
Tang Duoduo wiped her fingers, got up and called Tang Li from her home phone. She was half-kneeling on the sofa, shaking her butt.
"Hey! Auntie! Are you on your way home? Oh, you're already home. Then I'm relieved. Okay, okay, I'm going to hang up."
Tang Duoduo put away the phone and quickly ran to the entrance in her slippers, waiting for the return of the two of them with excitement.
After she saw the closed door being pushed open, Tang Duoduo opened her arms lively and said, "Welcome home, aunt and sister Chuchu!"
There was a reason for her good behavior, because the traces of a few packets of potato chips and chocolate missing from the snack shelf could not be hidden from Tangli and the others, so it was better to please them both from the beginning.
Oh, she can't help but be greedy. Besides, there are no adults at home yet, so the snacks on the snack shelf want to jump in front of her eyes one after another, so why would Tang Duoduo be willing to push them away?
Tang Duoduo smiled sweetly, and Tang Li bent down and rubbed her face, "Come with me."
After saying that, she picked up Tang Duoduo and brought Tang Duoduo to a full-length mirror. The woman was mature and intellectual. She smiled and pinched Tang Duoduo's cheeks with her hands. Tang Li said, "Look at the chocolate at the corner of your mouth. Tang Duoduo, do you want to be beaten, eh?"
"Auntie, Duoduo knows she was wrong! Please let me go!" She hugged Tangli's neck and pouted, planning to kiss Tangli. Tangli was so frightened that she pulled her back collar and said hurriedly, "Come with me to brush your teeth. Wash your face and come to me again."
"Auntie, auntie, what is courtesy? I don't understand."
Tangli dragged her past Lin Chu and said to Lin Chu, "Since Duoduo doesn't understand, why don't you give her tutoring at night."
Although Tang Duoduo is smart and doesn't hate studying, how can any child like to go to class? When she heard Tang Li's threat, she shook her head like a rattle and said, "No, no, I will become shorter if I study at night. I want to grow taller! Just like my little aunt!"
"Flattery doesn't work."
Tangli sneered and took her to brush her teeth and wash her face. Occasionally, she could hear Tang Duoduo's wailing, which looked like she was abused, actually on purpose. She wanted Tang Li and Lin Chu to be soft-hearted towards her, but unfortunately, the plan didn't work.
Lin Chu cleaned up the sofa and potato chip crumbs that Tang Duoduo had messed with. When she saw that everything was back to tidy, she nodded with satisfaction.
"There are no chicken wings for Duoduo tonight."
Tang Duoduo was horrified. She had turned into a clean and beautiful little girl, but Lin Chu's light words made her realize that her parents' intimidation was not over yet.
Eating chocolate at night was not only about brushing your teeth and washing your face, but also Lin Chu's punishment.
"Sister Chuchu, am I your most beloved child?"
She followed Lin Chu's legs like a little tail.
Lin Chu said gently, "Duoduo has always been my favorite child, but this does not stop me from not making chicken wings for you tonight."
Tang Duoduo felt pain in her chest. Seeing that Lin Chu didn't change her mind, she dejectedly came to Tang Li who was watching TV.
Tang Li couldn't help but laugh, touched her hair, and said with a smile, "Do you still dare to eat chocolate secretly at night?"
"No..."
I'll eat it during the day next time!
Tang Duoduo got into her arms. The fragrant and soft Tang Duoduo was very cute when she was well-behaved.
Tang Duoduo patted Tang Li's face gently, but it didn't hurt.
Tangli glanced sideways, "What are you doing?"
"Auntie, did sister Chuchu meet my father today?"
Tangli never regarded Tang Duoduo as a child who needed to hide everything. She thought for a while and responded, "How did Duoduo find out?"
"I overheard the security uncle saying it."
Tang Duoduo blinked, "Is he going to take Duoduo away when he comes to the kindergarten?"
Tangli did not answer this question directly, but said, "Does Duoduo like to live with aunt and sister Chuchu?"
She asked very straightforwardly. Sometimes there is no need to be tactful with children, because Tang Duoduo can understand more clearly what adults are talking about with simple and clear words.
Tang Duoduo nodded vigorously, "I like my aunt and I also like my sister Chuchu!"
Tangli pinched her little nose and comforted, "Then no one can take Duoduo away."
She hugged Tang Duoduo and said softly, "So don't worry Duoduo, sister Chuchu and I will always be here."
Tang Duoduo leaned against her, her eyes falling on the crayon painting hanging on the wall.
She asked in a low voice, "Does aunt think Duoduo is a drag?"
"No one will regard their children as a burden."
Tang Duoduo said silently in her heart: Dad can do it, but I also have to thank Dad. If it weren't for him, how could I have met my aunt and sister Chuchu?
"Children, don't think about these things, happiness is the most important thing~"
It is our wish to make you happy.
