Chapter 94 : Just for Saying One Sentence, He Demands One Million in Compensation!? (Full Chapter)
"Dad, that's not what I meant!"
Tang Aili hurriedly explained in embarrassment. She had finally gotten a rare chance to attend a banquet—how could she possibly miss it!
[Tang Aili's Regret Value +200!]
"It's just that Qingmo's clothes used to be a bit old, so I thought he wasn't suitable for this kind of banquet. But today, with Xiao Li's help, he looks really good!"
Xiao Li was the stylist's nickname.
Tang Qingmo sneered sarcastically.
"My clothes were old because no one bought any for me."
"Come to think of it, I've been back for so long. Aside from the lighter you gave me on the first day, Second Sister, you haven't given me anything else~"
"Meanwhile, Tang Xianxi gets a different gift every few days…"
Tang Aili: !?
A bad premonition surged in her heart!
Tang Qingmo broke into a bright smile.
"Second Sister, you wouldn't want your words just now to hurt your own little brother so much that he ends up refusing to attend the banquet, right?"
"You…!?"
To be honest, if Tang Qingmo didn't attend the Liu family banquet, Tang Aili and the others would raise both hands in agreement.
After all, their Xiao Xi couldn't go—how could they let Tang Qingmo have his way!
But Tang Jianren was extremely displeased upon hearing this!
This Liu family banquet was meant to further strengthen the relationship between the Tang and Liu families, and business cooperation would also be discussed there!
The Tang family had already lost Tang Feifei and Tang Xuerong—two daughters who could have been married off for profit!
So the engagement between Tang Qingmo and the Liu family absolutely could not go wrong again!
If Tang Qingmo, the fiancé, didn't show up, how was he supposed to build feelings with Liu Ruyin?
And how would they explain it if other guests asked about it!?
Thus, Tang Jianren immediately looked at the three sisters sternly.
"Qingmo is right!"
"How have you been acting as sisters? After all this time, you haven't even thought to buy him a gift!"
The three sisters: ...
Before they could react, Tang Jianren turned to Tang Qingmo with a beaming smile.
"Qingmo, don't blame your sisters. They've just been too busy with work."
"If there's anything you want, just say it. Don't let it hurt your relationship!"
Right now, the most important thing was getting Tang Qingmo to go to the Liu family. Everything else was secondary!
And honestly, he wasn't wrong.
If Tang Ruoling and the others had even pretended to treat their biological brother well in the past, so many problems wouldn't have arisen now!
Tang Qingmo smiled faintly and, without the slightest politeness, took out his phone and displayed a QR code.
"How about this—talking about feelings hurts money. Each of you sisters gives me one million. I'll pretend I didn't hear Second Sister's hurtful words just now."
The Tang sisters: !!?
One million!?
Just because Tang Aili said one sentence, he was demanding a million as compensation!?
And Tang Ruoling and Tang Meixin hadn't even said anything, yet they were dragged into it too!
This was way too unfair!
[Tang Ruoling's Regret Value +200!]
[Tang Meixin's Regret Value +200!]
Moreover, aside from Tang Ruoling, both Tang Aili and Tang Meixin had been suspended from work. As pampered young ladies used to spending lavishly, they barely had any savings at all!
"It's just one million. Hurry up and give it to him!"
Tang Jianren showed not the slightest sympathy and directly pronounced their "crime," demanding compensation!
Their emotions became extremely complicated…
But thinking carefully, wasn't this exactly the kind of treatment Tang Qingmo used to receive?
Whenever Tang Xianxi said a few words and shed a tear or two, they would immediately condemn Tang Qingmo—without even listening to his explanation!
What goes around comes around. Only when the boomerang hits yourself do you realize how painful it is!
Tang Qingmo coldly held out the QR code again, his tone mocking.
"Three dear sisters, please transfer the money quickly. That way I won't feel sad and can smoothly head over to the Liu family."
"..."
[Tang Ruoling's Regret Value +200!]
[Tang Aili's Regret Value +200!]
[Tang Meixin's Regret Value +200!]
Tang Jianren also urged them on.
"Don't I give you plenty of allowance every month? Hurry up and give it to him!"
As the company's CEO, Tang Ruoling naturally had no problem paying one million. Under Tang Jianren's gaze, she unhappily transferred the money.
But Tang Aili and Tang Meixin still hesitated, eventually looking toward Tang Ruoling together…
Tang Ruoling: ...
[Tang Ruoling's Regret Value +200!]
Fine. As the eldest sister, she understood what they wanted to say with just a look…
"Give me the QR code again. I'll help them pay the other two million first." Tang Ruoling transferred another two million to Tang Qingmo.
"I only need to receive three million. Whether it's a loan or a gift between you doesn't concern me." Tang Qingmo smiled.
"..."
His attitude was infuriating!
If they could, they would have loved to curse him out!
But they couldn't out-argue him, and Tang Jianren was right there, so they could only swallow their anger!
Seeing that Tang Qingmo had accepted the money, Tang Jianren immediately put on a fawning smile.
"Qingmo, are you satisfied now? Can you come with me to the Liu family?"
"Of course. I should also thank Second Sister for giving me the chance to earn three million~"
Tang Qingmo deliberately shot Tang Aili a triumphant, mocking glance before leaving with Tang Jianren.
!!!
Tang Aili clenched her fists tightly, her entire face flushed red with rage!
[Tang Aili's Regret Value +200!]
[Tang Aili's Regret Value +200!]
...
After they left, Tang Ruoling finally shook her head helplessly.
"You really should watch what you say and who's around. Don't give people leverage again."
Clearly, her second sister was an outstanding surgeon—so why did she always lose her composure whenever she faced Tang Qingmo?
Tang Aili lowered her head guiltily.
"I know… I'm sorry, Big Sister."
"Sigh… alright. Let's go finish our makeup and head to the Liu family."
After that, the three Tang sisters no longer nitpicked and simply let Xiao Li style them. Their makeup was completed very quickly.
When Tang Qingmo arrived at the Liu family residence, it was already 7:30 p.m.
As soon as the two arrived at the venue, the Liu family's butler came forward to greet them.
However, just as Tang Qingmo was about to enter the mansion, he heard the system's panicked voice.
[Host! It's inside! I can already sense the aura of a mutant beast within this mansion!]
