Chapter 353: 353 Little liar, just coaxing me (additional updates)

Tang Kairui saw her blindly dashing towards the Lin Family, fearing the woman might harm Lin Tang, so he hurriedly followed.

Today happened to be Lin Tang’s day off.

When she heard that shrill voice, she didn’t immediately realize who it was.

Upon closer look, it was Xia Ru.

Seeing this person again, she only felt surprise, without any excess emotion.

After getting her revenge, Xia Ru became no different from a stranger in her eyes.

"Why are you here?" Lin Tang frowned slightly.

While speaking, she glanced at Xia Ru, who was in a state of disarray she had never seen before.

Right at that moment, Tang Kairui and Li Jiancai ran over, followed by several unfamiliar men.

"Tang Xiaorui, what’s happening?" Lin Tang asked in confusion.

Tang Kairui walked over, positioning himself beside her, to prevent Xia Ru from going crazy.

"How did you get out? Go back home quickly, I’ll handle this woman."

Li Jiancai watched from the side.

He glanced at Tang Kairui, then at Lin Tang.

He started to smile with his mouth open.

Indeed, it was the affection that had grown from childhood. Usually, it didn’t seem like they meshed well together.

But when it came to a crunch, wasn’t he quite capable?

Hehe!!

Thinking of giving Tang Kairui a chance to perform, Li Jiancai kept quiet for the time being.

Lin Tang didn’t understand the situation and looked bewildered.

"What’s going on here?"

Xia Ru, seeing so many people protecting Lin Tang, couldn’t help feeling jealous.

Lin Tang, this wretched woman, was still so good at bewitching people.

Xia Ru’s gaze darkened, but she showed nothing on her face.

Evading Gougou’s attempt to take hold of her hand.

She looked up at Lin Tang, whose face was as fair as the autumn moon.

Suppressing the resentment in her heart, she tried to appear as sincere as possible.

"...I came here today to apologize to you, that matter... I’m sorry."

Lin Tang hadn’t expected the always proud Xia Ru to apologize to her.

She raised her eyebrows in surprise.

She said indifferently, "I know, but I don’t accept it."

Wrong is wrong, and some things can’t be mended with just an apology.

What Xia Ru did with the admission notice was one thing, but what she should never have done was go after her family.

However, the Xia Family had received their just deserts, the grudges avenged, all scores settled.

Xia Ru was stunned.

Which adult speaks so bluntly?

She quickly recovered and continued, "Being able to realize one’s wrongs and mend them is most commendable, I’ve apologized, what else do you want...?"

Lin Tang interrupted her nonchalantly.

"So if you apologize, I must forgive you? What makes you think that?"

Whether or not she attended college was her own affair, but being forced to miss out was an entirely different matter.

Xia Ru was left speechless.

A wave of powerlessness swept over her heart.

What’s with the people from the Shuangshan Brigade? Why do they all love to interrupt?

"No, I truly know I was wrong, can you..." Xia Ru started again.

Lin Tang continued without expression, "Cannot!"

"No matter what ineffectual request you’re about to make, the answer is no."

Having said that, she turned to the silent Li Jiancai beside her.

"Uncle Jiancai, I have nothing to say to this person, please take care of it," Lin Tang said with a smile.

Tang Kairui’s handsome face turned dark.

"Lin Xiaotang, where do you put me in this?" the young man said with dissatisfaction.

His fair face flushed, he looked like a young wolf cub that was angry but not yet showing its claws.

Lin Tang saw his aggrieved expression and couldn’t help but laugh.

Her eyes shone like water, brimming with mirth.

"I have you in my eyes, where else could you be?"

Tang Kairui’s heart beat wildly as he met the girl’s eyes, twinkling with laughter.

He turned away blushing, muttering softly, "Little liar, you speak so sweetly, always tricking me."

Yet, his heart was filled with joy.

His voice was very low when he spoke.

The sound almost didn’t come out after rolling around on his lips for a moment.

Lin Tang naturally didn’t catch it.

"What did you say?" she walked over, getting closer to Tang Kairui, and asked.

Tang Kairui smelled a faint sweet fragrance, and his throat tightened.

Uneasily, he took two steps back.

"Nothing, it’s nothing."

The sound of his voice was somewhat hoarse.

He had to pinch his palm hard to barely suppress the pounding in his chest that was thumping in his ears.

Lin Tang felt that Tang Kairui was acting odd and gave him a suspicious look.

She couldn’t see anything out of place.

"Oh, my mom is inviting you over for a meal at our house, do you dare to come?"

Stimulated by her words, a myriad of complicated feelings in Tang Kairui’s heart abruptly disappeared.

With determined pride he said, "Dare! What’s there not to dare?"

The next second, his voice weakened.

"...Should I bring anything? A pound of apples, a bag of candy, a basket of eggs, is that enough?"

Lin Tang’s mouth twitched.

"What are you thinking?"

"My mom invites you over to thank you; why would you bring something?"

"We’re all family here, there’s no need to be so polite."

Tang Kairui was one of the only two high school students in the village.

While he wasn’t great at academics in school, he was far superior to the villagers by more than a little bit.

After the Sauce Factory was established, he smoothly became the factory’s accountant.

A few days ago, Zhou Mei was almost hit by a brick falling from the eaves while she was busy.

Tang Kairui quickly pulled her to safety, narrowly averting a bloody disaster.

Upon learning of this, Li Xiuli insisted on having a meal with Tang Kairui to show her gratitude.

Today, she finished work early, prepared a table full of delicious dishes,

and seeing that the time was just about right, she sent Lin Tang to fetch Tang Kairui.

This led to the many events that followed.

When Tang Kairui heard Lin Tang say ’we’re all family,’ the blush that had just faded from his ear tips flared up again.

Cough...

Family or whatever, it’s not like that yet.

"...Fine," he said.

"If Auntie Li thinks I’m impolite, I’ll just blame you," Tang Kairui said with a hint of barely noticeable smugness,

like a kid who had successfully played a prank.

Lin Tang was half-amused, half exasperated, "Alright."

Finished speaking, she turned around and nodded her chin towards her home’s entrance.

"Follow me back."

She had only walked a few steps when Xia Ru, who had been tightly held by Gougou just a second ago, suddenly rushed towards Lin Tang.

"Lin Tang, help me!" she pleaded,

slipping past Gougou’s form and gripping Lin Tang’s arm tightly,

like a drowning person grasping at a lifeline.

Lin Tang smiled faintly.

"Not pretending anymore?"

A leopard can’t change its spots.

She never believed Xia Ru would sincerely admit her faults.

And sure enough, her true colors showed themselves quickly.

"You want my help; where do you think you stand? Do you think I’m the Virgin Mary or something?"

Xia Ru didn’t understand the meaning of Virgin Mary, but combining the tone of Lin Tang’s words, she knew it wasn’t a compliment.

"You’re not the Virgin Mary, but you have a good heart, you’re a good person," she said.

"Lin Tang, didn’t you write an article on preventing kidnapping?

Now here I am, a kidnapped person right in front of you, why won’t you save me?!"

Upon hearing this, Gougou’s face suddenly changed.

He stepped forward, reaching out to pull Xia Ru away.

Tang Kairui, worried that the rough man would hurt Lin Tang, reached out to stop him.

"Stay put! If you hurt Lin Xiaotang, I’ll beat you up."

Then he reached out to Xia Ru, trying to get her to stay away from Lin Tang.

Xia Ru quickly dodged, her eyes very red.

"Don’t touch me, or I’ll accuse you of molestation," she threatened.
