Zhang Meiyu sat on the sofa, her face contorted with rage.
Tang Zhongcheng picked up his phone and looked. The photo showed a taxi on the main road.
Next to it were remarks about the date, time, and the people in the taxi at the time.
It was none other than the taxi Tang Yiyi had taken then.
It was also at that time that Tang Yiyi was secretly filming a video in the car.
The video was taken by Tang Yiyi, and Tang Yiyi was the instigator.
Seeing this, Tang Zhongcheng’s face turned pale.
Things had come to this, and it was troublesome.
Zhang Meiyu was breathing heavily with anger, glaring venomously at Tang Yiyi as if she wanted to tear her apart.
"Tang Yiyi, you have repeatedly tried to harm Xiao Min. How many times have I warned you? Do you take my words as mere wind?"
"Wuwu..."
Tang Yiyi could only cry.
Zhang Meiyu continued to scold, "How can your heart be so cruel? Aren't you afraid of retribution?"
What was the use of just talking about retribution?
Tang Xiaomin said coldly, "Butler Wang, escort Tang Yiyi out of the Tang family. I don't want to see her again."
Zhang Meiyu did not object to Tang Xiaomin's decision.
As Butler Wang was about to act, Tang Zhongcheng suddenly erupted in fury.
"I'd like to see who dares!"
Butler Wang looked troubled, not daring to act rashly.
Zhang Meiyu glared fiercely at Tang Zhongcheng, hating him to the bone.
Hating his betrayal, hating that he had deceived her like a fool for so many years.
Wishing he were dead.
Zhang Meiyu stood up and pointed at Tang Zhongcheng.
"Tang Yiyi has repeatedly harmed Xiao Min. Not only do you not help your own daughter, but you also indulge this vicious adopted daughter."
"I forgot, you were involved in this matter too, weren't you?"
"Tang Zhongcheng, for the sake of the children, I've endured everything. But don't forget, everything in the Tang family belongs to me, and I am the head of the family!"
"Today, either Tang Yiyi leaves! Or you, Tang Zhongcheng, leave with her! A shameless man like you, I, Zhang Meiyu, have had enough!"
Zhang Meiyu was also expelling Tang Zhongcheng.
"Butler Wang, what are you waiting for!"
Butler Wang went to open the door, and a group of men in black, who had been waiting outside, suddenly rushed into the Tang residence.
Two of the men, without a word, dragged Tang Yiyi up from the ground and hauled her out.
"Mom, I know I was wrong. Please don't kick me out, Mom... Mom..."
This time, Zhang Meiyu was determined to drive Tang Yiyi away.
Especially after Tang Ye had repeatedly claimed he liked Tang Yiyi last time, Zhang Meiyu had already conceived this idea.
Zhang Meiyu was unmoved.
"Dad, Dad... Don't kick me out, Dad, save me, Dad..."
Tang Zhongcheng watched helplessly as Tang Yiyi was dragged out of the villa.
His tolerance towards Zhang Meiyu all these days had also been stifling for him.
Zhang Meiyu had high aspirations, and it seemed she would not forgive him.
Tang Zhongcheng glared fiercely at Zhang Meiyu.
"Fine, very good." Sudancw.com
"Nearly thirty years of marital affection, familial bonds. Since you don't care for me, then there's no need for me to stay any longer."
"Today, as you wish, I will leave the Tang family!"
Tang Zhongcheng turned to leave.
"Wait!" Zhang Meiyu suddenly stopped him.
Just as Tang Zhongcheng thought Zhang Meiyu would try to keep him.
Zhang Meiyu signaled to Butler Wang, who handed a document to Tang Zhongcheng.
Zhang Meiyu said, "I, Zhang Meiyu, indeed do not care for you, and I don't want any further entanglement with you in the future. This is a divorce agreement. You, Tang Zhongcheng, leave with nothing. Sign it."
Not only was he being kicked out of the house, but also divorced, and he had to leave with nothing.
It seemed Zhang Meiyu had been prepared, even having the agreement ready.
Tang Zhongcheng looked at the divorce agreement, then at Zhang Meiyu.
In Zhang Meiyu's beautiful eyes, there was now coldness and resolution.
Then he looked at Tang Xiaomin, who had a playful smile on her lips, as if watching a show.
Without any persuasion or entreaty.
Tang Zhongcheng hated Tang Xiaomin like this very, very much at this moment, even blaming all this on Tang Xiaomin.
"Tang Xiaomin, you've torn this family apart. You're the one with the vicious heart, aren't you?"
Hearing this, Tang Xiaomin felt disgusted.
"You're a man. When you kept your mistress right under your wife's nose, letting them live and eat together, you should have foreseen this day."
"If this family is in pieces, it's because of you, your adopted daughter, and your mistress."
"A shameless man like you even dares to shamelessly shift the blame onto me. You truly disgust me."
"Tang Xiaomin, you have ill intentions... you..."
Tang Xiaomin couldn't be bothered to listen to Tang Zhongcheng's nonsense.
"What are you waiting for? Escort him out. Guard the Tang family's main gate for twenty-four hours and don't let either of them in. Otherwise, your salary will be deducted."
"Tang Xiaomin, you're so heartless, Tang Xiaomin, you'll face retribution..."
No matter how indignantly Tang Zhongcheng shouted, the hired men unceremoniously threw him out of the villa.
Outside the villa.
Tang Xiaomin, carrying a bag in each hand, walked out behind Tang Zhongcheng.
She threw the two bags in front of Tang Yiyi and Tang Zhongcheng.
"Take your things and get lost. From now on, you are forbidden to step into the villa again."
Tang Yiyi indignantly shouted, "Tang Xiaomin, what right do you have to kick me out? I've lived in this house for so long, who do you think you are?"
"Heh..."
Tang Xiaomin let out a mocking laugh.
"Because I am the biological daughter, and you are adopted. When I return to my rightful place, you, the substitute, naturally go back to where you came from."
"I forgot to tell you, why do you think Zhang Meiyu doted on you so much? It was only because she abandoned me and felt guilty, so she adopted you."
A substitute?
Tears streamed down Tang Yiyi's cheeks.
"Tang Xiaomin, you're spouting nonsense! How could I be your substitute?"
"Heh..."
The smile on Tang Xiaomin's lips became even more playful.
"If you weren't a substitute, how could you have been ruthlessly kicked out of the house for making a mistake? I remember when I made mistakes, she would at most just say a few words. Not like now, hiring people to throw me out."
"Tang Yiyi, this is the difference between you and me."
Tang Yiyi's tears fell like pearls from a broken string, one after another.
In the Tang family, no matter how defiant Tang Xiaomin was towards Zhang Meiyu, she would always tolerate Tang Xiaomin in the end.
But Tang Yiyi was being thrown out, kicked out of the house.
It was only at this moment that Tang Yiyi finally understood what role she played in Zhang Meiyu's heart.
Just as Tang Xiaomin had said.
She was merely Tang Xiaomin's substitute.
They had abandoned Tang Xiaomin, and unable to bear the guilt, they had to find a substitute for self-consolation, hadn't they?
Tang Zhongcheng angrily stepped forward, grabbed Tang Xiaomin, and glared at her fiercely.
"It was you, you taught Zhang Meiyu to do this, didn't you?"
