Chapter 568: Tea



As Bai Yue spoke, he actually struggled to stand up. Lu Anning was frightened. Who could have thought that Bai Yue would do this? She panicked a little and quickly held him down.

"Bai Yue, what are you doing!"

During the struggle, a cold voice came from outside: "What are you doing?"

Lu Anning raised her eyes and saw Tang Jingyuan striding towards her.

"Jingyuan, you came at the right time. Just now..."

Before Lu An Ning could finish his words, Bai Yue suddenly interrupted.

"Don't blame her! It was me. I was desperate and tried everything. She didn't say anything."

Lu Anning's face froze and he looked at Bai Yue. Why did these words sound so different when they came out of Bai Yue's mouth?

"What do you mean?" Lu Anning frowned.

Bai Yue forced a smile. "I didn't mean anything, don't get me wrong. I was just worried that Jing Yuan would have wild thoughts, so I explained it to you. Jing Yuan, your wife didn't embarrass me, so please don't let your imagination run wild."

Lu Anning's face wrinkled into a ball. Isn't Bai Yue making things worse?

She looked at Tang Jingyuan and opened her mouth to explain something, but Tang Jingyuan had already stepped forward and pulled Lu Anning to stand behind him.

He smiled faintly: "Ningning has a soft personality and doesn't understand many things, so don't come and embarrass her."

"I'm giving her a hard time?"

When Bai Yue heard this, he laughed, without any emotion in his eyes.

"How can I, a useless person, embarrass her? Jing Yuan, I thought you weren't someone who would be blinded by emotions. Where's your rationality? We've been brothers for so many years, don't you understand me?"

"It is precisely because of this understanding that you are here. Ah Yue, don't involve irrelevant people in some matters."

Tang Jingyuan took a step forward and looked down at the man in front of him. Bai Yue was not afraid at all, and there was a playful smile in his eyes.

"All I know is that my sister was arrested and taken away by Lu Anning's biological brother."

Tang Jingyuan curled his lips and said, "How about we talk alone?"

Bai Yue sat in a wheelchair, his eyes narrowed. After a while, he nodded and said, "Lead the way."

Tang Jingyuan walked forward and pushed the wheelchair out. Lu Anning vaguely sensed something and wanted to follow him, but was stopped by Tang Jingyuan.

"Go upstairs and clean up. I'll call you when it's over. Be good!"

Lu Anning subconsciously glanced at Bai Yue and nodded reluctantly. After all, Bai Yue's legs were not very convenient, and she was even more aware of Tang Jingyuan's fighting ability. It was impossible for Bai Yue, who was like this, to hurt Tang Jingyuan.

As he watched the two people walk away, Lu Anning still felt anxious.

Zhong Ling was curious and stepped forward to ask, "Why did that man just now become so teasing in front of the Third Master?"

Lu An Ning curled his lips, turned around and smiled at Zhong Ling: "That's Bai Lu's brother."

Zhong Ling was completely stunned: "Who are you talking about? Bai Lu's brother, didn't they say he died a long time ago..."

Her voice gradually faded, and she quickly covered her mouth when she realized what she had said. Someone who had been dead for years suddenly came back, and it felt like there was some kind of hidden secret going on here!

"What about him just now?"

"I said it on purpose for Jing Yuan to hear."

They were indeed brother and sister, even the things they did were equally disgusting. She had once thought that Bai Yue was a man of great righteousness, but now it seemed that she had really thought too much of him. At least, the current Bai Yue was no longer that simple.

Tang Jingyuan chose a nearby teahouse to sit down. Since there were no outsiders present, Tang Jingyuan was too lazy to hide anymore.

"You know the rules of the company better than anyone else, so why bother coming here to embarrass Ningning? You should be the one who knows best whether this matter has anything to do with her."

Bai Yue took a sip of the tea and pretended to be deaf and dumb.

"I only know that Lulu has been locked up. You refused to help me, and the Municipal Bureau wouldn't let me see anyone. How could I know how they would treat my sister? She's a weak girl, how could she endure it? I had no choice but to come to Lu Anning."

"They have their own rules! As for you, I don't need to tell you what you can't touch!"

Bai Yue couldn't help but laugh out loud. "What did I get into? My sister just runs a teahouse, and I'm a crippled person with limited mobility. What else can I do? I spent my best years in the army. For a mission, I made myself half-human, half-ghost, and my life was on the line countless times. In the end, what did I get?"

"You can't say that."

"How can I explain this? You, Tang Jingyuan, are so high and mighty, the Third Master of the Tang family. Wherever you go, everyone respects you. How could you possibly understand my pain? Look at me now. Whenever I appear in front of others, they just think I'm a monster. Do you understand what that feels like?"

Tang Jingyuan pursed his lips and did not respond.

"Look at you, you've gained fame and fortune, and have established a family. What about me? My sister is just trying to make some money to treat my illness and make our lives better. What did she do wrong?"

"It's okay to make money, but it should be done through legitimate means."

"What's wrong with her? What did she have to do with those people's accidents? They even dared to accuse her of drug involvement, which is ridiculous. Have you ever seen anyone openly selling drugs in a teahouse? I just want to ask you, they said Lulu was involved in drugs, but do they have direct evidence? Did they find drugs in the tea, or did they find drugs on her?"

Tang Jingyuan frowned. The substance in the tea was not among the existing banned drugs. It was a new one.

"None at all. If that's the case, why did they lock my sister up and not even allow her to visit? If I weren't in a wheelchair right now, those people wouldn't dare treat us like this. To put it bluntly, they just didn't climb high enough."

"Don't worry, I won't wrongly accuse her. If there's no problem..."

"Tang Jingyuan, ask yourself honestly, if it was Lu Anning who was imprisoned right now, would you still be able to say these words so calmly?"

Tang Jingyuan was speechless and subconsciously clenched the teacup. The tea room fell into deathly silence.
