Upon seeing Gu Yingying appear in the office with an angry expression, Ye Yun stood up and instinctively shielded Tang Shu behind her.
Before this, she had heard about Gu Ying's attitude towards her future sister-in-law.
At that time, Gu Yingying made it clear to her that her attitude towards her sister-in-law was nothing but resistance.
Even though she had tried to persuade Gu Yingying that having more sisters-in-law would only mean more people would dote on her, Gu Yingying still harbored a strange hostility towards her future sister-in-law, always feeling that Gu Jin would share the affection that should belong to her as her younger sister with her future sister-in-law.
Tang Shu was also stunned at this moment.
She had only met Gu Yingying once, when the two families met for the first time and had dinner together.
At that time, Gu Yingying followed behind Gu Jin, always glancing at her with a seemingly casual look, her gaze domineering and filled with obvious hostility.
At that moment, she knew that this sister-in-law was not someone to be trifled with.
"Yingying, what brings you here?" Seeing Gu Yingying's aggressive demeanor, Ye Yun stepped forward and blocked her in front of the desk.
Behind her, Tang Shu also turned to the side and secretly glanced at Gu Yingying.
Why did Gu Yingying come to see her in such a menacing manner? Was it because of Gu Jin?
I think so.
Aside from Gu Jin, she had no other entanglements with Gu Yingying.
"Ye Yun, get out of my way! I'm not here to bother you today. I'm here to find this woman. Who allowed her to bully my brother!" Gu Yingying glared with her almond-shaped eyes, stretched out her hand, and angrily pointed at Tang Shu across Ye Yun.
She was covered in sweat and panting heavily from the long journey.
Upon hearing this, Ye Yun immediately understood.
"Don't be so hasty." She pressed down on Gu Yingying's hand that was pointing at Tang Shu, seemingly comforting her while actually holding it with a hint of manipulation. "Did your brother tell you that Tang Shu bullied him?"
Do I even need to say that?
Gu Ying snorted coldly and glanced at Tang Shu with annoyance, saying, "If she hadn't bullied my brother, would he have run to my place for refuge? I don't know what kind of spell she cast on my parents, but they keep urging my brother to go back, which has made him sick!"
oh?
Ye Yun was surprised. Gu Jin was sick?
"Why is your brother sick?" Tang Shu asked in surprise, peeking out from behind Ye Yun.
As soon as Gu Yingying saw her peek out, she slammed her hand on the table, her voice filled with fury: "How dare you ask! I'm asking you, did you kiss my brother?!"
Tang Shu: "???"
Ye Yun: "..."
No, there's clearly a misunderstanding here.
Tang Shu was also dumbfounded. After a long while, she managed to twitch the corner of her mouth and said, "Sister, he told you that I kissed him?"
"Don't call me 'sister,' I'm not!"
"Okay, okay." Tang Shu finally understood and breathed a sigh of relief. "You should go back and ask him first to find out who bullied me. I haven't even said anything since I was forcibly kissed, and you're already helping the instigator come looking for me."
Upon hearing this, Gu Yingying exclaimed, "What did you say? You mean my brother kissed you?"
Tang Shu shrugged.
Although she didn't say anything, her expression clearly said it all.
"impossible!"
Gu Yingying didn't believe it at all. With a bang, she slammed her hand on the table again, pointed at Tang Shu, and scolded, "Don't make false accusations! My brother isn't that kind of person. He's seen all kinds of women over the years, how could he kiss you!"
"How can you be so certain?"
"You're not worthy at all!!"
"..."
After a two-second silence, Tang Shu stood up without saying a word.
As soon as she stood up, she was instantly half a head taller than Gu Yingying in front of her.
With waist-length black hair and fair, smooth skin like solidified cream, she wore a tight-fitting sweater. What was most striking were her long, slender legs encased in flared jeans. Her clean and natural demeanor instantly made her far superior to Gu Yingying.
Ye Yun silently moved aside.
Okay, okay, she won't participate in the battle.
Gu Yingying was already dumbfounded.
I had met Tang Shu once before. She just sat quietly in her seat and looked no different from an ordinary person.
But as soon as she stood up, she suddenly felt an indescribable sense of oppression.
Is this the disadvantage of height?
"No!" Gu Yingying shook her head immediately, her neck stiffening as she said, "So what if you look like this? So what if you're tall? So what if you have fair skin? So what if... so what if you have long legs? Is that the reason my brother kissed you?!"
Tang Shu: "..."
Gu Yingying snorted angrily, "Anyway, I don't believe he bullied you, it must be you who bullied him!"
Damn it.
This guy looks like he's meant to seduce her, so why can't she control her craving and want to be tamed by him?
Did her brother feel the same way, which is why he couldn't control himself and went up to kiss her first?
No, no, no...
But if it weren't for this reason, why would her brother kiss this woman?
At this moment, Gu Yingying had already forgotten the purpose of her visit and was instead investigating why Gu Jin had kissed Tang Shu.
She initially came to Tang Shu with the intention of avenging Gu Jin.
However, her first reaction was the most genuine. She was already captivated by Tang Shu's appearance and believed from the bottom of her heart that Gu Jin had struck first.
Do you have any further questions?
Tang Shu's voice rang out.
Gu Yingying snapped out of her daze and instantly met Tang Shuqing's indifferent gaze.
It was a gaze so indifferent as to be devoid of any emotion, as if she had no desires or wants, and nothing could stir up even a trace of her thoughts. She stood atop the clouds, quietly overlooking the human world.
Gu Yingying suddenly felt insignificant.
"But... but if you didn't do anything to my brother, why did he run to my place?" she said, stamping her foot angrily. "If he really bullied you, shouldn't you be the one hiding now? On the contrary, you're here flirting with Ye Yun... Yes, this doesn't make sense, you have to give me an explanation!"
Tang Shu: "..."
Having such a sister-in-law is really exhausting for her. It seems her life after marrying into her husband's family won't be easy.
"Who said Tang Shu should hide away?"
Ye Yun finally spoke.
Seeing Gu Yingying's puzzled expression, she added, "To be precise, who told you that people who are bullied should hide away?"
Gu Yingying opened her mouth.
A few seconds later, she lowered her head and muttered softly, "Nobody told me this, but isn't that how it is? If you're being bullied by a man, shouldn't you hide away..."
Ye Yun: "..."
Tang Shu: "..."
The two exchanged a glance and saw the same helplessness in each other's eyes.
Looking at the chattering, unreasonable little girl, I never expected that this was what she was thinking.
Tang Shu smiled and calmly sat back down in the boss's chair.
A soft voice rang out.
"No one says that the one who is bullied should hide. I'm not the one who did wrong. On the contrary, I prefer to fight back with certainty."
