BXBX NOVEL Chapter 371 - Fury
Chapter 371: Fury
Initially, Tang Wenyi wanted to mix the truth and falsehood, but when she heard the word ‘surveillance,’ she was immediately stunned on the spot. Oh my! How could I have forgotten that there were surveillance cameras? If my lie aroused the old master’s suspicion and caused him to take the initiative to investigate, wouldn’t my trip to Shanghai to seek cooperation be exposed?!
What she did was not legitimate to begin with. Moreover, the old master had already prohibited her from having any contact with Lu Yaohua! In addition, she had secretly contacted a big shot who had worked with the Tang family for many years. If these things were exposed, the old master would definitely not let her off easily!
Now it was clear whether she was telling the truth or lying.
She took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and said loudly, “I-I went to the bar to have fun all night. Because I was too tired, I was sent back to the hotel! By the time I woke up, I couldn’t catch the plane, so I had to hurriedly catch the next flight!”
After she finished discussing the cooperation with Xu Xiaojing and the others, she was not in a hurry to return to the hotel. In the beginning, she wanted to rest, but the more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She was the one who came up with the whole idea. Why did Lu Yaohua snatch away half of her profits? Wasn’t this bullying an honest person?!
As a result, the anger in her heart became even more intense, so much so that she couldn’t control her emotions and ran to the bar. She even ordered a few good-looking waiters to drink with her. Now that she thought about it, it was really a crazy night. She had spent a lot of money there, at least a five-figure amount!
However, when she woke up, she felt her heart ache. It had not been easy for her to save so much money! Because of Lu Yaohua’s words, she had no choice but to spend a lot of money to make herself happy. At this moment, she was forced to face the old master’s cold face! In the end, it was all Lu Yaohua’s fault!
Thinking of this, she felt that she was not at fault. Then she piled all the blame on Lu Yaohua! She definitely could not get along with this person. Otherwise, why would she be the unlucky one every time they came into contact?
However, Old Master Tang didn’t care what difficulties she had. After hearing what his third daughter said, his eyes instantly became sharp. He said, “No. 3! You’re really something! I told you to come back early, but you acted as if you hadn’t gone out for eight lifetimes. You even went to the bar to play all night?!
If others find out your true identity, how are they going to look at your sisters?! Does everyone think that my Tang family’s children are the same as you, trash who only know how to eat, drink, and play?! Is this how I’ve educated you? You let yourself go after the divorce?! You don’t care about your reputation at all! You’re going all out, right?”
As he spoke, he became agitated. In the end, he threw his walking stick at her in anger. His unexpected action made Tang Wenyi exclaim instinctively. She frowned and covered her swollen arm, her eyes filled with fear.
However, at this point, she still did not feel that she had done anything wrong. It was clearly Lu Yaohua who caused the trouble. Why did she have to bear it alone? However, she did not dare to say such words, afraid that Old Master would do something even more extreme than now! She looked up and met Tang Boyan’s gaze. She moved her lips, but she could not speak.
“Tang Wenyi, you’ve flouted the family rules time and time again. You’ve despised my rights as the head of the family time and time again! Why? Do you want to go to heaven now? Do you think that the Tang family can’t manage you anymore? This world can’t accommodate you anymore, right?”
Every word he spat out was like a death sentence for Tang Wenyi. She hugged her trembling body and said with pale lips, “No, no, Old Master, believe me! I really don’t mean that! I have no intention of resisting you. I can’t wait to be controlled by you…”
“Oh? Really?”
The corners of Old Master Tang’s mouth twitched coldly as he said, “Are you lying to yourself or are you trying to fool me? If you’re telling the truth, why did you go to the bar to party when you knew that there wasn’t enough time? Who doesn’t know how to say beautiful words? No. 3, I don’t have any hope for you anymore.”
The last sentence immediately threw Tang Wenyi into a bottomless abyss! It was not that the old master had never said harsh words in the past, but this was the first time in history that he had said such extremely harsh words! Perhaps it was also the first time in the family! She widened her eyes in disbelief.?What does the old master mean? In his opinion, will I never be the head of the family?
Her entire heart felt like it had been splashed with cold water. Even the little flame that had just been ignited after the discussion disappeared.
“Old Master…”
This time, Tang Boyan did not show any mercy. Instead, he said to the butler beside him, “Old He, how many lashes do you give as punishment for questioning the family head’s decision and constantly speaking out of turn?”
“30.”
Butler He replied expressionlessly. It seemed that Third Miss would not be able to escape today. He knew it. She should not have gone out in the first place. Otherwise, would she be punished by the family law? Even if she stayed at home and did not copy Buddhist scriptures, she would at most be scolded.
“Do it. If you don’t, you won’t be able to survive in the Tang family!”
To threaten to fire Old He, who had worked for many years, it could be seen that the old man was really ruthless this time!
Soon Butler He brought over the thick and long black whip. Under the sun, it shone with a cold light! The painful memories of being beaten immediately surfaced. Tang Wenyi’s heart was in her throat. She hurriedly begged for mercy. “I know my mistake! I know my mistake! Old Master, don’t attack!”
That’s 30 lashes!
In the past, even if I had caused any trouble, I would not have been whipped so many times! When Butler He is done, will I still be alive?! I will probably be half dead, right? Does the Old Master not want me to live? To think that I’d thought that he’s the only person in the family who cares about me. So I was thinking too much?
Why else would he be so hard on me?
Before she could think further, Butler He whipped her mercilessly. She screamed, “Ouch! It hurts! Butler He! You can’t hit me! I’m the third daughter of the Tang family! You can’t do this to me… Ouch!”
Before she could finish, another whip came down.
Tang Boyan sat on the chair and said firmly, “Without me, you’re nothing. No. 3, I’ve already given you enough preferential treatment. If it were anyone else, they would probably have gone to hell long ago!”
