Before he died, my grandfather forced me to marry the richest man in the capital.

At that time, the Tang family.

Tang's father, his face grim and radiating a menacing aura, was on the verge of exploding. He said to his wife with extreme dissatisfaction, "Look at what you've done! Now what are we going to do? Not only did we fail to harm that brat, we've alerted her! That brat must have guessed it was us. Didn't you say you were completely at ease? Now what do you mean you're at ease?" His tone was full of reproach for her incompetence.

Not content with just a few complaints, she thought for a moment and added, "You didn't leave any evidence against me, did you? If you're guilty of something, you'll have to take the blame yourself. Without me, this family will all starve."

He was very disappointed with what Chen Lan had done this time; he couldn't even get things done despite bumping into someone.

All they do all day is play mahjong, go shopping, and get beauty treatments.

I don't know why I'm so fascinated by her.

At this moment, Chen Lan was terrified. She lowered her head and lowered her eyes, her fingers digging into her palms. She didn't tell Tang's father about the extortion, and answered tremblingly, "I don't know when Yao Yao learned her skills, and how good she is at fighting. She never showed any of it before. If I had known, she definitely wouldn't have arranged it this way." She didn't say that she wouldn't have failed.

After speaking, she slowly raised her head to observe Tang's father's expression. She noticed that his brows were still furrowed, but they had obviously eased a little. She began to reassure him, "But don't worry, Lao Tang, I didn't leave any evidence. The contact SIM card has also been destroyed. It wasn't registered under anyone's name, so Yao Yao won't know that we did it. If anything really happens, I definitely won't implicate you."

After listening to Chen Lan's explanation, Tang's father's brows relaxed and his tense nerves eased.

Chen Lan never expected that Tang Junyao was a professional fighter. The two grown men were no match for her and could not even get close to her.

According to the two reports from yesterday, Tang Junyao was not injured at all last night. On the contrary, the two people he sent over were crippled. One had three broken ribs in his chest and a mild concussion. The other had a dislocated hand, which was dislocated by this girl, and a broken leg.

The other party interrupted Chen Lan and Tang's father's intimate moment early in the morning, and in a fit of rage, threatened to record the call and give it to the police if they didn't pay, saying it would be a fight to the death.

Chen Lan had no choice but to pay the other party's price of 500 million yuan to buy the so-called recording in order to put an end to the matter.

But this money was her own private savings, deposited with a friend overseas. She had even lied to Tang's father, saying it was all taken care of. If Tang Xin found out she had so much money saved up... and had even given the friend 500 million, he would strangle her. Chen Lan didn't dare to think about what the future held.

Just as Tang's father had calmed down, the thought of Tang Junyao's incredible fighting skills and how she had kept it all a secret filled him with rage, and he began to curse through gritted teeth again. "That damned girl is incredibly cunning! She's got such a skill that she managed to keep us all in the dark. She's been monitoring the house for so many years and hasn't reported a thing! Look at how she beat those people! Is she even a girl? She's an ungrateful wolf!" His anger reached its peak.

He had no idea his daughter was so skilled. If he had known earlier, he certainly wouldn't have let Chen Lan act rashly. Now he's lost on both sides and doesn't know how to get his property back.

After his ex-wife jumped off the building, Grandpa Tang demanded that he sever ties with her and even took Tang Junyao to live with him. He was afraid that his father would raise Tang Junyao, so he sent someone to take care of the two of them.

Until she turned 15, the people sent to her station only reported on her daily routine of going to and from school and doing homework, which was very boring. Tang's father, who was worried about the money, told her to find an excuse to quit her job.

With a headache and feeling irritable, Tang's father pinched his aching brow.

The living room fell silent.

Tang Junting, who woke up late, came downstairs in her slippers and noticed that the atmosphere in the living room was strange. When Chen Lan saw her daughter arrive, she gave her a wink, but her lip movements failed to convey the intended meaning.

Tang Junting, who received the signal, now understood why her father looked so distressed.

She walked slowly and gracefully to Tang's father's side, sat down slowly and elegantly, and took his arm, saying in a sweet voice, "Dad, don't be in such a hurry. You know what kind of person my sister is. The harder you try to reason with her, the less she'll give in. We need to find her weakness. Think about it, who's the most important person in her heart? Isn't it Grandpa and her mother?"

Tang's father was unmoved by his daughter's words. He knew this even without her saying it; the brat didn't treat him like a father at all, but rather like an enemy.

But the two people she cared about most were dead, so what could she use to threaten them?

Seeing that her father wasn't interested in listening, Tang Junting went straight to the point, "We can use what my sister cares about most. We can get her to exchange it for shares. Isn't she most concerned about what Grandpa and her mother have? So we can lie and say that there are other important things in your hands, Dad. If she wants them, she can sign the share transfer agreement."

"Isn't it Mom's birthday at the beginning of next month? Let's throw a party and invite my sister over. With so many people, she won't be able to throw a tantrum. If we plan things out, we won't have to worry about her giving in."

Tang Junting's eyes were full of calculation and smugness.

Tang's father's eyes lit up suddenly, and he praised his daughter for being smart. Tang Junting was overjoyed by the praise, and Chen Lan's gloom that morning also dissipated.

But Mr. Tang was still a little worried that his daughter wouldn't come.

"Don't worry, Dad, my sister will definitely come. As long as we make Mom's birthday party bigger next month, we can get her to come."

Tang's father made sure everyone knew about his stepmother's birthday celebration, and he also told her that her deceased mother had left behind some belongings at the Tang residence, so she was definitely going to come.

She believed that Tang Junyao, given her personality, would not tolerate her mother, who was a marriage destroyer, being so flamboyant.

Tang Junting's repeated affirmations finally put Tang's father's mind at ease.

She cautioned, "Dad, we shouldn't go to her during this time. Let her lower her guard, otherwise she'll suspect our motives, and that will make the banquet much more likely."

It's rare that the two doctors got off work at the same time today.

It's worth celebrating.

"Yaoyao, we haven't been to a bar in ages. How about I take you to find some hot guys tonight and we can have some fun? Anyway, I don't have to get up early for my night shift tomorrow."

Tang Junyao let down her waterfall-like curly hair, which she always tied up neatly for work.

"I'm not going. I can still go to work tomorrow after drinking." Besides, Su Xue becomes dramatic when she drinks, and she's like a completely different person.

She was afraid she wouldn't be able to handle Su Yu when he wasn't around.

"Oh, Yao Yao, come on over! I'm telling you, a huge bar opened in the capital this year. I haven't been to see it yet. Come with me to broaden my horizons." Since Tiss opened, she hasn't been to it once. Every time, she hears from her friends that it's full of handsome men and beautiful women.

The music and rhythm are so catchy and energetic.

She had been longing for this for a long time, but unfortunately, she always worked night shifts and early shifts, so she could never get a day off with her best friend.

Another reason was that she wanted to let Tang Junyao let loose and vent her emotions. She always felt that her best friend had too many things weighing on her mind, and she was afraid that she would get sick.

Tang Junyao's willpower was weakened by Su Xue's shaking, and she could only nod in agreement.

After returning the car to Su Xue in the morning, the driver drove it back to the Su family's underground garage.

Su Xue was afraid that the other woman would criticize her driving skills later, so she asked in advance, "Are you steering or should I steer?"

She gave Su Xue a disdainful look. "I don't know the route, you drive."

"You let me drive, so don't complain about my driving skills later. Every time you ride in my car, I feel a lot of pressure."

"Don't try to pin your own bad driving skills on me!"

"Who told you to drive so well? I'm bound to feel a little inferior, right?"

"Okay, I'm going to sleep. You can do whatever you want." After saying that, Tang Junyao actually closed her eyes, allowing Su Xue to play without any pressure.

I got into a fight last night and I'm a bit tired. It seems like I haven't been exercising much lately since I've been living in the Royal Garden, and my physical condition has deteriorated. I need to get up and run tomorrow to exercise.

Soon, even breathing came from the side. Su Xue glanced at her best friend's face at the traffic light and noticed that she had lost a lot of weight.

He must be suffering a lot inside, and it must be heartbreaking.

When people have too many things to do and don't share them, it's easy for them to accumulate and develop health problems.

Tang Junyao was always understanding and only shared good news, not bad. Su Xue didn't want to force her best friend to reveal her thoughts, so she could only worry secretly.

The car stopped in the parking lot of the Imperial Capital Mall.

Su Xue gently nudged Tang Junyao: "Yaoyao has arrived."

She rubbed her sleepy eyes, yawned, and realized she was in the wrong place. "This isn't the bar's parking lot, is it?" she asked in surprise.

"We're going to a place where we'll definitely need protective gear. Let's hurry up and get something to eat, then we'll go buy some clothes."

Tang Junyao had absolutely no desire to shop and was too lazy to move. "Big sister, there's no need to go all out just to go to a bar. Can't you just sit there and quietly enjoy the view?"

Su Xue refused, crossing her arms in front of her chest in an X shape. "No, you have to rock out tonight, it'll definitely amaze everyone."

Tang Junyao: ".............." She wanted to say that she didn't want to be amazing, as she was already married, but Su Xue was in high spirits and didn't want to dampen her enthusiasm, so she decided to just let it be.

Both sides are fake couples, and the fate between them isn't that good. The capital city is so big, it's unlikely they'll meet.
