"Close the door…"
As a bodyguard, he was supposed to carry out his employer's orders.
However, when Lu Tianren saw the woman lying on the floor desperately begging him for help, he hesitated.
"Um, Young Master Tang, this lady—"
"Tianren, didn't I already say so?" Tang Qingmo cut in with a smile, his gaze turning slightly sharp.
"If there's any problem, you may only ask when it's just the two of us…"
"!?"
"Close the door. Don't make say it a third ti."
"..."
Lu Tianren still closed the door.
Tang Qingmo was clearly still smiling warmly, yet one could sense the invisible pressure he was emitting, along with that piercing gaze!
It was true—he had agreed to Tang Qingmo's work conditions beforehand, which was why he accepted the job as his bodyguard.
But now…
Seeing the woman on the ground, deathly pale and trembling all over from fear…
People have compassion.
Even if he wouldn't refuse his employer's request, facing this unard woman still made his heart soften.
At that mont, Tang Qingmo's cold voice rang out.
"Have you still not recognized reality?"
"..."
"When you ca back last night and seed normal again, I thought you had already accepted it. But sure enough, once you see soone weak, you want to let her go, don't you?"
"I…" Lu Tianren turned his head away, feeling embarrassed at being seen through.
"Then I'll tell you directly who this woman is."
Tang Qingmo smiled as he looked at Wang i.
Just being stared at by those icy eyes was enough to make Wang i recall the scene from two days ago, when she and Wang Dafu were tortured over and over again!
"No… no… Young Master Tang… please, I beg you!"
Tang Qingmo ignored Wang i's pleas and said calmly,
"She is Tang Xianxi's biological mother. I think that should make things clear."
"Huh? Tang Xianxi's… biological mother?"
Tang Xianxi's biological mother—then that ans…!?
Tang Qingmo said flatly with a smile,
"That's right. She's the kidnapper who switched Tang Xianxi and eighteen years ago and ruined my life."
"Now that I've put it that way, does your compassion lessen a little?"
Lu Tianren: !!!
In that instant, Lu Tianren felt all the blood in his body turn ice-cold.
His mind was buzzing nonstop, filled with nothing but shock…
And because Tang Qingmo's tone was far too calm—like he was talking about soone else's affairs—Lu Tianren's legs weakened, and he staggered back a few steps.
Was everything Tang Qingmo said true!?
Just now… had he actually sympathized with a kidnapper…!?
Lu Tianren imdiately looked at Wang i, only to see her already terrified face turn even paler and more frantic…
It was all true!
This woman before him, who looked so frail and innocent—
she had actually…
actually done sothing so utterly inhuman!!
"How ironic, isn't it?" Tang Qingmo said, glancing at Wang i's clothes, her jewelry, and then at the city-center apartnt.
"Look at what she's wearing, the accessories she has, and this apartnt downtown. The furniture inside—every brand na, none of it cheap."
Seeing Lu Tianren's stunned expression, Tang Qingmo continued.
"But in order to conceal the truth about the real and fake young masters—because they fell in love with the fake one—my father and my sister regularly gave huge sums of money to the criminal who kidnapped their biological son and younger brother, along with this apartnt."
"And then they said it was to repay her for giving the Tang family such an outstanding son and brother…"
!!!
Lu Tianren's pupils widened. He was so shocked that he didn't even know what to say anymore.
The Tang family… Tang Qingmo's own family really said sothing so heartless about their biological son and brother!?
