Chapter 762 - To Lure Into a Trap
Chapter 762: To Lure Into a Trap
Guan Tang could not accept this. She was determined to gain a foothold in the Yin family. She knew she had to focus on Cheng Che. No matter what the others said, it was not important. The most important thing was to obtain Cheng Che’s approval. Only if Cheng Che liked her would she become the rightful Young Madam of the Yin family.
After racking her brains for ideas, Guan Tang decided to start with Jiahui first. Her plan could only proceed if Jiahui was no longer by Cheng Che’s side. However, she had failed once so she had a tough time coming up with another plan.
Guan Tang was still thinking of ideas when Yin Yi came knocking on her door.
Yin Yi held Guan Tang’s hand, acting coquettishly, as she said, “Cousin, well you accompany me to the Mu Group?”
Guan Tang tried her best to hide her delight before she calmly asked, “Why are you going to the Mu Group? Didn’t your brother make it clear that he was unhappy about you going to the Mu Group previously?”
Yin Yi pouted. “You know the answer to that. That’s why I want you to accompany me. My brother is courteous with you so he won’t say anything if you accompany me.”
Guan Tang gently pulled her hand out of Yin Yi’s grip and said, “It’ll be embarrassing if I go…”
Yin Yi said, “How is it embarrassing? You’re just pursuing your happiness. What’s there to be embarrassed about? Don’t you want to pursue my brother? I heard he told Grandpa that he won’t marry you. If I were you, I wouldn’t accept this without giving it my best. Cousin, how are you inferior to that woman? If anything, she’s inferior to you! Are you so willing to give my brother away? Why? You’ve been in our family for so many years, but you’ve gained nothing! Are you really willing to accept this?”
Yin Yi spoke without restraints.
Guan Tang’s tears fell at once. She covered her mouth, trying her best to stop her sobs before she said, “What can I do? He doesn’t want me so how can I force him? Tell me, what can I do?”
Sympathy flooded Yin Yi’s heart when she saw the crying Guan Tang. She quickly said, “Don’t cry, Cousin. Let’s think of a way together. No matter what, my sister-in-law can only be you! I’m on your side!”
Guan Tang said through her tears, “What’s the use of you being on my side when your brother is on that woman’s side? Even your family is on her side now. I, I’m just an outsider. In the end, no matter how long I’ve been with the Yin family, I’m still not a member of the family, after all. In your family’s eyes, I’m just a pitiful orphan.”
Guan Tang looked heartbroken when she spoke.
Yin Yi said angrily, “Cousin, what are you saying? Who treats you as an outsider? I’ve never treated you like an outsider before! Since I was young, I’ve always treated you like my biological sister! You know that I’m closer to you than my half-sister!”
Guan Tang quickly held Yin Yi’s hands and said, “You really treat me the best. I’ve always known that. I just feel really… bitter. I don’t dare to say anything to Uncle and Aunt for fear of causing trouble. Apart from you, I have no one to cry to and complain to. I really… I really don’t know what to do.”
Guan Tang’s words made Yin Yi’s blood boil. She clenched her hands tightly and said indignantly, “Cousin, don’t cry! I definitely won’t stand aside and do nothing about your matters. Don’t worry. Even if Mom and Dad don’t care, you still have me! I won’t let you suffer! Come, come, let’s discuss and plan our next step!”
Guan Tang allowed Yin Yi to pull her to the couch.
Yin Yi’s eyes shone brightly, and her expression was serious as she said, “Cousin, your biggest obstacle now is that doctor, right? At that time, I heard she went missing for a period of time. It was around the same time you moved out as well. At that time, you managed to speak to my brother, right? I think he treats you quite well, right?”
Guan Tang nodded slightly.
