Chapter 610: This Stepmother Is Too Cautious
Chapter 610: This Stepmother Is Too Cautious
‘Why isn’t she playing her cards by the books?’
Before Su Yang arrived, he had been revising Fatty Lu’s “Secret Guide To Anger Aunties”, fully hoping to be able to anger Tang Jing’s stepmother.
Of the three methods, the first one was carried out very smoothly, scaring Tang Jing’s stepmother half to death and causing her face to be ashen.
Unexpectedly, something unexpected happened while he was executing the second method.
‘What’s the problem? Has my move been broken through? How am I supposed to retaliate now?’
Su Yang’s head spun.
However, before he could come up with a good idea, Tang Jing’s stepmother said, “Su, Yang, isn’t it? Since you and her are of the same generation, I shall call you Little Su.”
Tang Jing’s stepmother looked like a completely different person. She smiled like a flower. “Little Su, I’m not against you living with her. Honestly. In fact, I feel that it’s normal for young people to live together. This is a social trend and it’s your habit. We shall respect you.”
Su Yang was confused.
‘What social trend? What habits? How is this normal?
‘Auntie! Don’t think that just because you’ve watched a few television dramas or listened to someone that you think this is common, alright?
‘Even though we’re doing something like this, we actually still feel uneasy. As a parent, how could you be supporting us?
‘Pui! No! We haven’t done anything. At most, she’s just renting a place from me!
‘Something is wrong here, very wrong!
‘There must be a trap somewhere here!’
However, at that moment, [Space Traversing Eyes] also popped out Tang Jing’s stepmother’s emotional judgment. [Caution]...
Su Yang almost thought that his ability had lost its effect when he saw the strange notification.
‘Caution? What does that mean?
‘What’s this woman being cautious about?’
Su Yang pondered for a moment and asked tentatively, “So we’ll be living together from now on?”
Tang Jing’s stepmother said without hesitation, “Sure! No problem!”
Su Yang was confused.
‘Something still feels wrong.’
Su Yang continued to probe. “Then, will you still look for trouble with Tang Jing in the future?”
This time, Tang Jing’s stepmother did not agree but... Explained!
She quickly explained, “Little Su, you’ve misunderstood me. I’ve always been good to her. I’ve always treated her like my own daughter. In fact, when I criticized her, I was actually lashing out at her.”
“Just like when I said that she would only rely on you and not improve herself, it was for her own good. I wanted her to have her own career.
When she said that, Tang Jing’s stepmother sighed heavily. “Actually, I understand Little Jing’s personality very well, but I understand men even better. If a woman can’t improve together with him, then the two of them will slowly lose interest in each other.”
Su Yang exclaimed in his heart, ‘Wow! Even the word “Xiao Jing” has appeared!
‘When you first entered the door, you kept referring to her as “her”. Your attitude has changed too quickly already!
‘However, I have to admit that Tang Jing’s stepmother’s words are truly touching. Coupled with the fact that I knew about her actions, if I think about it carefully, perhaps she’s really doing this for Tang Jing’s sake... That’s right, if [Space Traversing Eyes] didn’t keep on popping out [Fake], [Fake], [Fake]...
‘With my biggest secret weapon, [Space Traversing Eyes], no matter how heartfelt and sincere her words are, I refuse to listen to a single word of her nonsense.’
In addition, the danger level he had of her dramatically increased.
‘She was obviously trying to suppress Tang Jing because she doesn’t like her, but now she’s able to speak so confidently and righteously. What a talent!
‘But why is this woman so easy to talk to?
‘Could it be that she’s the one who’s using Fatty Lu’s ultimate move? Is she planning to show some weakness to her enemy before giving them a thunderous blow?’
With this worry in mind, Su Yang wanted to use the [Memory labyrinth Hourglass] to check on Tang Jing’s stepmother’s memory. However, he had used it on Yang Meiyue the day before yesterday. Thus, using it twice in a short period of time would cause too many side effects and could easily cause problems.
That was why Su Yang hesitated for a moment. In the end, he did not use the [Memory Labyrinth Hourglass]. Instead, he chatted with Tang Jing’s mother courteously.
After that, Su Yang and Tang Jing’s stepmother had a deep and serious discussion. Finally, they came to an agreement on three conditions.
[1. Tang Jing’s stepmother is forbidden from criticizing and scorning Tang Jing.]
[2. The assets that Tang Jing’s father gave her would be returned to her.]
[3. Tang Jing’s stepmother is not to interfere with Tang Jing’s life and will not disturb her at her home.]
Initially, Su Yang had only asked for those conditions from Tang Jing’s stepmother with the thought of wanting to ask for something as ridiculous as possible to test Tang Jing’s stepmother. As a result, he did not expect her to accept it completely...
While Tang Jing’s stepmother was chatting with Su Yang, the pop-up that [Space Traversing Eyes] gave the most was. [Caution], [Caution], [Caution]...
‘This stepmother is too cautious... Although I have no idea what she’s being so cautious about.
‘However, regardless, at least I’ve managed to scare her stepmother and get back at her, helping Tang Jing to get some benefits in the meantime. I’d say that my mission today is pretty successful.’
Therefore, he generously invited Tang Jing’s stepmother for a cup of mocha. Then, without paying the bill, he carried Jin Jin and drove home.
On the way home, Su Yang hummed along to the music on the car. ‘i’m indeed the child of destiny, I can do anything I want. I even managed to settle Tang Jing’s stepmother, who was so hard to please.
‘Wonderful.’
When he arrived home, Su Yang had just parked his car when Tang Jing walked over.
There was a look of anticipation on her face as she opened the car door for Su Yang. She looked at Su Yang gently and asked in a low voice, “Xiaoyang, was she angry?”
“Err...” Su Yang did not know how to answer that question.
When Tang Jing saw Su Yang’s expression, she thought that Su Yang had suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of her stepmother. She quickly pretended to be nonchalant and said, “Ah, it’s fine, it’s fine. I’ve told you before that that woman’s mouth is really sharp, it’s like a machine gun that never runs out of ammo. She has never lost until now, so don’t mind her.”
Even though she said that, Su Yang could sense the disappointment in her eyes.
Su Yang understood her feelings. After her mother died, she had always treated this woman as her enemy, but she had never gained the upper hand.
The previous conflict did not escalate, so the two did not contact each other. Coupled with the fact that Tang Jing was soft-hearted and did not want to cause any trouble, the two of them were able to live somewhat peacefully.
However, ever since she borrowed money from her father because of Su Yang, the conflict between the two of them worsened. From then on, Tang Jing had been living in the abyss of suffering.
Hence, when Su Yang stood up for her, she felt warm inside.
Which woman would not want a man to stand before her and shield her from troubles?
Now that Su Yang had failed, the dream in Tang Jing’s heart had been shattered. It was good enough that she was only slightly disappointed.
If he were to let some ‘pretentious’ girls cry, they would probably say that their boyfriends were useless as they cried and whined incessantly.
However, Su Yang did not lose. Before he could even exert his strength, Tang Jing’s stepmother started to beg for mercy.
Hence, Su Yang coughed and said, “Sister Tang, you’re mistaken. I won. I helped you vent your anger.”
Tang Jing’s eyes lit up. “Really?”
Su Yang nodded. “Yes.”
Tang Jing grabbed Su Yang’s arm and pressed it against her breasts. Su Yang felt as though he had fallen into a gentle embrace. She asked, “What did my stepmother say? How did you defeat her? Was she aggressive? You didn’t hit her because you were angry, did you?”
Tang Jing’s questions came one after another. She clearly knew that her stepmother was not an easy person to deal with.
Su Yang looked at her expectant gaze and coughed. “Ahem, Sister Jing. Your stepmother was quite easy to talk to.”
Tang Jing was confused.
This time, it was Tang Jing’s turn to hesitate. She doubted her ears.
‘A woman who could chase her stepdaughter and six-year-old daughter away, a woman who could call me from time to time to curse and a woman who kept forcing others to do things is actually very easy to talk to?
Su Yang shrugged his shoulders. “I don’t know why either. Other than the fact that I scared her with the cat, she has been very obedient ever since. She agreed to whatever I said. I even asked for your house and car back. She also promised not to call you or look for trouble with you anymore.”
Tang Jing was confused.
Tang Jing’s face was filled with confusion. With her gentle personality, she actually suspected that Su Yang went to the wrong room to talk to someone else’s stepmother.
However, since Su Yang had already said so, coupled with the fact that Tang Jing had a soft personality, even if she was filled with doubts and suspicions, she still said gently, “Alright, sorry to trouble you, Xiaoyang.”
With that, she held onto Xiaoyang’s arms as they walked back to the villa.
Before they reached the villa, Tang Xiaomi’s voice came from afar. “Mommy! Mommy! A phone call!”
As she spoke, Tang Xiaomi ran over with her short legs and handed Tang Jing’s phone to her.
After that, she made a face at Su Yang and ran away.
Obviously, the little girl was still holding a grudge against Su Yang for touching her head after he had scratched his foot. The reason why she gave her a piece of bread in the morning was because she secretly wanted to eat it and was just afraid that no one would take the blame if she got caught. A very smart girl.
Tang Jing took the phone and glanced at it. Her gentle expression immediately darkened.
This was the first time that Su Yang saw her in such a bad mood. Usually, when she was with Su Yang, Tang Jing would act like a good mother.
Su Yang took a glance and saw the caller ID, ‘Old Witch’.
‘Hmm... Judging by the caller ID, it’s probably her stepmother.
‘Just by this, one could tell how deep the conflict between them is.’
Su Yang glanced at Tang Jing and patted her hand. “Sister Tang, trust me.”
Tang Jing looked at Su Yang with determination.
Tang Jing was infected by this determination. She smiled again and nodded before answering the call.
Tang Jing’s attitude toward her stepmother was not as good. Her face was expressionless and her tone was harsh.
However, her attitude soon changed. From expressionless to hesitant, then from hesitant to surprised.
In the end, she turned to look at Su Yang with disbelief written all over her gentle face.
After a while, she hung up the phone and looked at Su Yang. “Xiaoyang, do you... Have superpowers?”
