Chapter 86.1 : Because I Wanted to Take Revenge on You! (Part 1)
"I'm sorry, Brother, I didn't mean anything else by it!" Tang Xianxi immediately raised both hands, his face full of grievance.
Tang Aili said sternly, "That's enough, Tang Qingmo. Xiao Xi was just being kind—don't go too far!"
Tang Qingmo smiled and asked, "Then let me put it plainly. You all came in the same car, right? Is there even a seat for me?"
"..."
The Tang family's cars were five-seaters, so with Tang Jianren and the others inside, the seats were filled exactly to capacity!
Tang Xianxi immediately said, "Brother, if you don't mind, I can give up my seat—"
"I very much mind breathing the same air as you."
Tang Qingmo raised his hand to cut him off. "And besides, why would I give up riding in the Lu family's luxury car just to squeeze into one vehicle with the five of you?"
"..."
Hearing this, Tang Xianxi couldn't help clenching his fists, his eyes secretly flicking toward Lu Tianren.
These past two days, Tang Qingmo had been traveling exclusively in the Lu family's luxury car, with Lu Tianren personally acting as his driver. Wherever he went, he was exceedingly impressive!
Damn it!
What right did Tang Qingmo have to associate with the Lu family!?
Why was his luck so good!?
"That's enough. Since Qingmo has a car, let's leave first," Tang Jianren said outside the ward, feeling a headache coming on as he saw Tang Aili about to argue again.
Too many things had happened over the past few days—he couldn't even keep up anymore!
Now, aside from Tang Feifei and Tang Xianxi's wedding, he didn't want to deal with anything else!
After the Tang family members left, only Tang Qingmo, Lu Tianren, and Chen Biantai remained in the room.
Tang Xuerong was still lying on the bed, trembling, her eyes unfocused and drifting, completely unable to recognize anyone.
"Tsk tsk… Young Master Tang, your family is really cold-blooded," Chen Biantai said, immediately switching to a sycophantic expression after Tang Jianren left.
"Once they learned that Miss Xuerong had mental problems, your father no longer wanted to bother with her. Your mother and sister only put on a brief show of concern, but when it was time to leave, they did so without the slightest hesitation. And the most ruthless one is your fake brother…"
Recalling Tang Xianxi's green-tea act earlier, Chen Biantai shook his head. "He looked like he was worried about your sister, but in reality, he could barely hide how happy he was."
Tang Qingmo sneered. "After all, his marriage with Tang Feifei is already a done deal. If Tang Xuerong were to come and stir up trouble now, his reputation would take a serious hit."
Marrying a paralyzed Tang Feifei—he could still claim he was "forced" in front of outsiders and gain some sympathy.
But if Tang Xuerong were to make a scene…
That would turn into a farce of 'elder sister falls in love with younger brother' and 'two sisters fighting over one brother'—a devastating blow to his reputation!
Thinking of this, Tang Qingmo glanced at Tang Xuerong.
At this moment, she was lowering her head in extreme terror, not daring to look at anyone at all.
"What did you do to her? Why can't she recognize people?" Tang Qingmo asked.
At the mention of this, Chen Biantai became visibly excited. "I injected her with my latest self-developed hallucinogenic agent!"
"Anyone injected with this drug will be unable to distinguish people or objects in front of them for two hours, plunging them into deep fear!"
After all, humans are instinctively terrified of the unknown!
Once this agent is injected, the entire brain enters a state where it cannot think or identify anything.
Simply put, in Tang Xuerong's eyes, the Tang family members just now were nothing more than a cluster of dark silhouettes!
Her senses would also become extremely sharp and alert. Coupled with her already violent personality, after the injection she would become afraid of approaching others and refuse to let anyone touch her!
"But since it's newly developed, it does have side effects that can cause devastating damage to the brain…" Chen Biantai sighed softly.
"But…" Lu Tianren looked puzzled. "Just now, Miss Fifth seemed to recognize Young Master Tang."
Chen Biantai paused for a few seconds, then let out a sinister smile. "Perhaps it's because Young Master Tang's terrifying image has already been perfectly engraved in her heart—so much so that even the drug can't block it!"
Tang Qingmo snorted coldly. "Who would've thought I was so charming—just a bit of torment, and I left her with such a deep impression."
"There's still about half an hour left before Miss Xuerong's drug effect wears off. Young Master Tang, would you like to wait until she recovers?"
"..."
