PLTRSC Chapter 45

The next day, after Lu Yinghuai went out, Jiang Tang stayed in the room.

At two or three in the afternoon, there was a sudden noisy sound downstairs.

Jiang Tang thought that Lu Yinghuai had brought his friends back, so he turned off the computer.

He waited for a while, but no one came up.

Although he didn’t want to be too sentimental, Jiang Tang discovered that the first thing Lu Yinghuai did when he came back was to come see him.

Maybe it was to entertain guests, Jiang Tang thought, and simply moved to the bed to take a nap.

He slept for an hour, but was still given a headache by the noise downstairs, and the more he listened, the more he felt something was wrong.

He touched the computer and operated it for a while, and the surveillance video downstairs appeared clearly on his computer screen. He put on headphones and turned down the volume.

A group of men and women about his age were sitting downstairs, swaying all over the place.

“Hey, this vase is really beautiful,” one of the ruffian-looking boys said, holding the vase that Uncle Chen had picked up two days ago, “How about using it as a spittoon for me?”

“Stop it!” A male Omega reached out to take the vase. “My dad will be mad if he finds out!”

Dad?

Where did Lu Yinghuai get such a big son?

“If it gets dirty, just buy another one,” the boy in front said with a smile, “Your family has money anyway.”

Omega laughed: “That’s true.”

Jiang Tang enlarged the Omega’s face and found that he looked somewhat similar to Uncle Chen.

Jiang Tang rubbed his swollen temples, hesitating whether to send a message to Lu Yinghuai.

He clicked on Lu Yinghuai’s profile picture, but his phone screen suddenly went black, and then suddenly rang. Jiang Tang looked at the number, feeling annoyed.

“Hello?”

There was a whirring sound on the other end of the line, and no one was talking. Jiang Tang took the phone away from his ear and looked at the number again: “Talk.”

“Jiang… Tang Tang…” The voice on the other end was a little hesitant and paused, as if it was pointing at the words and reading his name.
The blood color on Jiang Tang’s face faded like the tide. He heard the sound of his eardrums beating, the deafening heartbeat, and his own sudden heavy breathing.

I also heard the sound of a string breaking.

“Hmm? Is that how it’s pronounced?” The person on the other end was talking to the person next to him.

Jiang Tang couldn’t help but feel stuffy in his chest. His fingers clutched the quilt beside him and he couldn’t breathe.

Soon, he heard someone clearly say:

“Your name is Jiang Tang, right?”

The voice sounded like it came from hell, like a cold poisonous snake wrapped around Jiang Tang’s neck, making it difficult for him to breathe.

Jiang Tang didn’t expect that he would be so scared.

The physical reaction made him dizzy and nauseous. His hands were shaking so much that he could hardly hold the phone. He heard his own “calm” voice: “I don’t know what you are talking about.”

“Stop pretending.” Maybe it was because of the current, but Li’s mother’s voice was a little distorted, and it sounded sinister in his ears, “You’ve returned to your original home, haven’t you?”

“I heard you married an S-rank Alpha, right?”

“So you’re rich now, aren’t you?”

“…”

Is it true, is it true, is it true?

The continuous stream of questions made Jiang Tang unable to resist.

He felt very painful but couldn’t tell where it hurt. He could only clutch his collar in vain, with a force that seemed to suffocate himself.
“You still say you don’t have money? I see you clearly don’t want to give it!” Li’s mother threatened, “Li Fang, I’ll give you three days to transfer the money, otherwise I’ll go find your Alpha.”

“Don’t…” Jiang Tang leaned against the head of the bed as if he had no bones left, his voice as soft as a mosquito’s.

“Do you think your Alpha would still want you if he knew you were so dirty?”

“Don’t……”

Jiang Tang almost lost his voice.

“I want 20 million, and you only have three days.”

Mother Li knew that it was useless to go directly to Lu Yinghuai, as the S-level Alpha would not take her threat seriously at all.

Jiang Tang was different.

Mother Li was betting on something that Jiang Tang definitely didn’t want Lu Yinghuai to know. At first, she was not very confident, until Jiang Tang’s reaction reached her ears, she knew that she had made the right bet.

As long as she had the leverage over Jiang Tang, isn’t it her who has the final say on how much money to ask?

The call was hung up, Jiang Tang gasped for breath, his eyes fell on the bedside table.

There was a gift box there, a dark blue velvet box.

Inside was a watch that he had chosen and wanted to give to Lu Yinghuai. He had just received it yesterday afternoon and opened it to take a look. Although it was not as good as Lu Yinghuai’s famous watches, it was the most expensive thing Jiang Tang could afford at the moment.

He felt that it was a good match for Lu Yinghuai.

I had intended to give it to him tonight—if he still acted like a spoiled child and found an excuse to sleep with him.

Jiang Tang’s pale fingertips loosened the wrinkled collar and glanced at the computer.

Someone downstairs picked up his cup.

It was not brought upstairs after lunch.

Jiang Tang got on the wheelchair as fast as he could, rushed out of the master bedroom, and shouted at the stairs on the second floor: “What are you doing?!”

His shout was so sudden that everyone in the living room was stunned. Someone nudged Chen Yuan with his elbow: “Who is he?”

There was a flash of panic in the eyes of the Omega named Chen Yuan.

“Why did you come out? Go back quickly,” Uncle Chen came out from nowhere and said, “He is a distant relative of Young Master Yuan’s family. Something happened at home, so he is staying at Young Master Yuan’s house. His legs are crippled and his mind is not quite normal. Did he scare the young masters and young ladies?”

“Tsk, you’re living under someone else’s roof and yet you’re so loud, do you think you’re the master?” An Omega rolled his eyes without disguising.

“Hurry back to the room. It’s rare for Young Master Yuan to bring his friends back. Don’t spoil his fun!” Uncle Chen stood in front of the elevator to prevent Jiang Tang from coming out.

The house was very quiet every day. He thought that Lu Yinghuai had taken Jiang Tang with him when he went out, so he agreed to let his son bring his classmate back.

Chen Yuan said every day that he was a young master, and in order to make this lie seem more real, he came up with this idea. Before Lu Yinghuai was not here, he secretly came here several times, and every time he imagined this place as his home.

Uncle Chen panicked for a moment when he saw Jiang Tang, but he quickly realized that Jiang Tang had a weak character and was very easy to control in his opinion.

“Go back to the house quickly!” Uncle Chen urged while winking at him.

“Get out of here.” Jiang Tang pushed him away fiercely.

Uncle Chen didn’t expect that although he looked so thin, he was actually very strong and was pushed so hard that he staggered a few steps.

“Chen Yuan,” someone had already begun to doubt, and the one who spoke was a little girl, “You are not lying, are you?”

“How, how is it possible?” Chen Yuan’s face turned pale and he stammered, “He really is a relative of mine.”

“I don’t believe it,” the little girl stood up and several others followed her, “I’m going back first.”

“Hey, don’t go!” Chen Yuan shouted, stamping his feet and glaring at Jiang Tang. “You useless idiot, why did you have to come out at this time instead of earlier or later? Are you trying to make fun of me?”
He became angrier and angrier as he spoke: “So what if this isn’t my home? I’ll move in here sooner or later! My dad is the housekeeper here!”

The few boys who were standing nearby were all stunned.

Chen Yuan seemed to finally realize what he had said. He waved his hands and said, “Do you know whose house this is? This is the home of the prince of the Lu family!”

Thinking of the following words, Chen Yuan felt more confident: “My father is his brother’s savior! So even if we want this house, he will give it to us! It’s just a house, how can it be more important than my own brother’s life?”

“You are blackmailing me, right?” said the ruffian Alpha. “That’s enough fun. Let’s go.”

Jiang Tang didn’t say anything from beginning to end.

Because when he pushed Uncle Chen away, he saw that his cup had fallen to the ground and was broken.

Jiang Tang didn’t know much. He had seen a scene from a TV drama on the hotel TV where lovers gave each other cups, which sounded like “a lifetime” in Chinese.

He likes Lu Yinghuai, so he couldn’t be completely selfless.

The more he stayed with Lu Yinghuai, the more he felt how good Lu Yinghuai was.

On the way to Wuyuan, he also thought that he liked the moon. Was it because the moon was far away from him? When he got to the moon, would he find that it was different from what he imagined?
It was indeed different from what I imagined.

He imagined that he was looking at Lu Yinghuai from afar, rather than waking up in his bed.

Lu Yinghuai saved him again and again and was willing to hug him.
He liked Lu Yinghuai’s hug, his pheromones, and his teasing.

He likes Lu Yinghuai.

Even though he hardly ever showed it.

Now his cup was broken.

Jiang Tang’s imagined life with Lu Yinghuai was also shattered.

Jiang Tang looked at the mess on the ground and thought of the previous phone call. He felt that the moment he had been waiting for seemed to have finally arrived.

All the friends that Chen Yuan invited left. Chen Yuan glared at Jiang Tang angrily: “If you dare to tell Mr. Lu, you’re done.”

He placed his hand flat on his Adam’s apple and gestured.

Jiang Tang turned his head and looked out the window. The weather was getting warmer and the days were longer than before. It was only evening now.

He wondered if he would be able to see the moon tonight.

He had clearly been waiting for a moment like this, but when it finally came he felt reluctant.

Jiang Tang was a person with strong execution ability, but he began to hesitate again.

Just like that night, he wanted to see Lu Yinghuai again.

Just at this moment, his cell phone vibrated and a message popped up.

Lu Yinghuai’s profile picture changed again, this time it was a pale moon.

On the day Jiang Tang received Lu Yinghuai’s friend request, he marked him as “someone I like”.

The person you like: “Tangtang, I’m on my way to the airport. I’ll pick someone up and then I’ll go back.”

Favorite person: “Just for the record, this is Teacher Xie Zan’s medical team.”

Jiang Tang’s fingertips trembled slightly, and he was so numb that he couldn’t feel the screen. He pressed the wrong three letters several times.

T: “Okay.”

He thought about it again and added, “I’ll wait for you.”

After replying this sentence, Jiang Tang was completely exhausted, his fingers loosened, and the phone fell to the ground.

Chen Yuan came over, picked up the phone and took a look at the chat history. He was relieved to see that Jiang Tang didn’t complain: “You are sensible.”
