Chapter 33: Tang Qingran’s Password

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Xie Wutong’s words hit them like a thousand waves. Considering what she had exclaimed earlier in public, it was clear that she had planned to set up Xie Ru.

“Xie Wutong, don’t spout nonsense. Let’s just say that I lost my self-control. I admit it.”

Xie Ru watched everything from afar with hatred in her heart. For whom was this miserable performance?

“Since that’s the case, I won’t disappoint Younger Brother Tang anymore. Everyone here shall be a witness. From today onwards, Xie Zhen and Qin Zhen will no longer have anything to do with each other. We will be separated. But I will give Xie Wutong her monthly allowance.”

“Okay, I agree.”

Qin Zhen glanced at Xie Wutong and nodded heavily.

The farce finally ended at the birthday banquet.

As Tang Qingran was leaving, he passed by Xie Ru and looked deeply at her. Then, he said something that only the two of them could hear. “Password: 817623.”

817623. That was her parents’ birthday. What password was this for?

Xie Ru looked at Tang Qingran in confusion, but she did not receive any response as he left the banquet.

It was rumored that when the Tang family went bankrupt, the Tang family moved out of the capital. It wasn’t easy for them to adapt to their day-to-day life in a small town. However, they still managed to dress and eat well. Tang Qingran had lived such a life for more than 20 years. Why did he choose today, of all days, to exact his revenge?

Xie Ru did not understand and could not figure it out.

“Were you scared just now?”

Xie Ru shook her head. Gu Liao’s concern for her flattered her.

“Grandfather, please excuse us.”

The old master of the Xie family waved his hand. This was probably the most depressing birthday he had ever had.

People did not want to overstay their welcome, not when Old Master Xie was already at that age and with what just happened earlier.

“Xie Ru, today-“

Gu Liao suspected that Xie Ru was the one who had planned for these things to happen at the birthday banquet from the very beginning. Xie Ru must have been going out frequently these few days to see Tang Qingran so that he could return to the city and help destroy the Xie Zhen duo. After this, Xie Wutong probably would not have an easy life.

“What?”

“Nothing. Are you blind again?”

Xie Ru nodded, turning a deaf ear to Gu Liao’s suspicions.

The mysterious person had already been unreachable for three days. Joseph was adamant about withholding Q’s information and was unwilling to divulge even the slightest bit. It seemed that they were using a different tactic to deal with her.

She suspected that this was a collusion between Joseph and Q.

“Young Madam, Young Master said that he would take you to an art exhibition later. He asked you to wait for him to come back and pick you up.”

Xie Ru nodded. What was Gu Liao trying to do? Ever since they had returned from the banquet, Gu Liao had started to treat her coldly. In fact, she started to think that the gentle Gu Liao from before was just an act.

“What’s wrong? Are you unhappy? Our free time together today is a rare occasion.”

“You should use your free time to rest, not go out. I can’t see anything at the art exhibition anyway.”

Gu Liao smiled back at Xie Ru, tickling her heart.

“I forgot about that. But I can see it so I’ll just describe the art to you.”

“I’ll just trouble you.”

“Xie Ru, tell me the truth. Are you angry because you’ve been feeling neglected recently? You didn’t think I’d take you out during my free time, did you?”

Xie Ru rolled her eyes and didn’t say anything. Where did this man get so big-headed? Did he really think that was the reason why she was angry? In fact, Xie Ru herself couldn’t tell exactly why she was angry.

But she admitted that when she knew Gu Liao was going to take her out, her heart did skip a beat.

Gu Liao’s voice was deep and hoarse. In fact, every single thing about him was perfect for Xie Ru. It was as if they had already agreed in their previous life that they would meet here in their next life.

There was not a trace of impatience on the man’s face as he gently explained each painting to her at the art exhibition. Xie Ru closed her eyes and listened as she slowly imagined the images in her head.

It was dark inside the car and they could barely see each other. Gu Liao held Xie Ru’s hand and asked, “Do you want revenge?”

Xie Ru stayed still and did not say a word.

Suddenly, the car was illuminated by some bright lights. A large truck had appeared in the distance and did not show any signs of slowing down as it rushed toward them. Xie Ru sat stiffly in the car seat as if she had returned to that night fifteen years ago..
