Chapter 241 Excellent Value for Money
But Yu Li felt that Tang Shi's gaze just now didn't seem like envy at all.
And if we really want to talk about it, shouldn't we say it's jealousy?
On the surface, Yu Li still politely replied, "Ms. Tang is so outstanding, I believe that you will find your own happiness in the near future."
The implication is that Tang Shi should stop coveting other women's husbands.
She comes from a prestigious family, so how could she end up being a mistress?
But what Tang Shi was thinking was that, yes, in the near future, she would indeed get the happiness she had always dreamed of, but the premise of this happiness was that Yu Li had to give up her position as Mrs. Qi.
Of course, Tang Shi also knew that someone like Yu Li, with her background, had only managed to climb into the Qi family by sheer luck.
Faced with the luxurious life of a wealthy wife, no one can resist the temptation of fame and fortune.
Especially someone like Yu Li, she will inevitably stick to Qi Chenyan like a leech.
She did all this for the good of her brother Shen Yan.
Although she tried to comfort herself with these thoughts, it was the first time she had ever done something like this, and her fingers trembled uncontrollably as she reached into her bag.
Just as Tang Shi took out the item and hadn't had a chance to hide it, Yu Li suddenly reached out a hand.
"Miss Tang, why are you all sweaty? Is it too hot in the car? Get a tissue to wipe yourself."
Otherwise, people who don't know the situation might think that she was putting pressure on Tang Shi.
To everyone's surprise, Tang Shi's reaction was unusually intense; he suddenly jumped up.
Immediately afterwards, Yu Li heard a thud, as if something had fallen.
Did you drop something?
Yu Li glanced at her, and Tang Shi quickly pretended that her hand had slipped and her bag had fallen.
"No, it's my bag. I didn't hold it properly and it slipped down."
Tang Shi pretended to grab her bag, but actually reached out and groped between the chairs.
Where did it fall?
"Miss Tang, are you looking for something? How about I pull over and help you look for it?"
Yu Li found Tang Shi acting strangely; he was not only covered in sweat, but also looked tense.
Upon hearing that she wanted to stop the car, Tang Shi immediately withdrew her hand, sat down with her bag, and took the tissue from Yu Li's hand.
"Thank you, no need to trouble yourself. I thought I had accidentally dropped something, but when I checked my bag just now, everything was there."
Before Yu Li could say anything more, Tang Shi suddenly pointed ahead and said, "Just drop me off there."
"But Miss Tang, isn't your destination near the TV station? It's a ten-minute walk from here to the TV station."
Her ultimate goal in getting into Yu Li's car was to hide that thing in her car.
Although there was a slight mishap in the middle, the item must have fallen into the gap between the seats.
Regardless, the items had already been placed, and her goal had been achieved. Coupled with her already guilty conscience, she naturally couldn't sit still any longer.
"I suddenly remembered that there was something important I hadn't done yet, and getting off here would be perfect for taking care of it."
Although Yu Li felt that her behavior seemed suspicious and a little guilty, she didn't think of it that way.
Besides, she didn't want to give Tang Shi a ride in the first place, so since the other party had already said so, she naturally pulled over and parked the car on the side of the road without hesitation.
Tang Shi, however, got off the car quickly without stopping for a moment.
"Thank you, sister-in-law."
After saying thank you, Tang Shi turned and left, her hurried steps making it seem as if someone was chasing her.
Yu Li was still thinking about work. When she saw the person get out of the car, she glanced at them and then stepped on the gas again.
Tang Shi had walked a short distance when her phone rang. Upon seeing the caller ID, she nervously glanced around.
"Miss Tang, was the plan successful?"
Tang Shi lowered her voice and asked, "Qi Jianyue, can this thing of yours really cause Yu Li to lose her child?"
That's right, the one who conspired with Tang Shi, or even the real mastermind, was Qi Jianyue.
Arranged to live in an apartment, with two bodyguards watching over her every day, Qi Jianyue tried repeatedly to see Qi Siyue, but to no avail.
Even she wanted to mend her relationship with Li Rujun, transforming them from mother and daughter to mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
As long as Li Rujun is willing to accept her again, given Qi Siyue's filial piety, he will surely compromise, and only then will her position as a wealthy socialite be secure.
However, Qi Jianyue underestimated Qi Chenyan, who was the real ruthless person in the Qi family.
To prevent Qi Jianyue from having any other ulterior motives, two bodyguards were dispatched to restrict her freedom of movement.
She couldn't leave, nor could she go to the Qi family to cultivate a relationship. If she really waited nine months to give birth to the child, given Qi Chenyan's consistent adherence to his word, he would definitely make her pack her bags and become a bastard.
Then all her hard work and planning would have been in vain.
Qi Jianyue was naturally unwilling to give up. Just when she was about to reach a dead end, she accidentally came across a post on her WeChat Moments.
Because the Qi and Tang families were old friends, Tang Shi would often visit the old house.
Although Tang Shi and Qi Jianyue's relationship was not particularly close, they had previously added each other on WeChat.
Tang Shi's post seems to be a lament about the pain of unrequited love.
Even the longest wait can't withstand a malicious intent.
Qi Jianyue knew long ago that Tang Shi had a crush on Qi Chenyan.
Even Qi Jianyue knew that if their story were set in a novel, it would be a classic tale of childhood sweethearts and innocent love.
In reality, however, Tang Shi's unrequited love was destined to be fruitless.
Given Qi Chenyan's personality, if he had any other feelings for Tang poetry, he would have stopped having this secret crush long ago.
But Qi Chenyan remained unmoved, and even when Tang Shi went to Germany to study in a fit of pique, he was indifferent.
Now that Qi Chenyan is married, Tang Shi's nearly twenty-year-long unrequited love has come to a tragic end.
However, Qi Jianyue suddenly realized that this was precisely her perfect opportunity!
Now that she's come to this point, she even has to scheme to get pregnant by Qi Siyue in order to risk returning to the Qi family.
Originally, she was the only princess of the Qi family, the apple of everyone's eye.
All these changes were caused by the appearance of Yu Li!
If she hadn't entered the Qi family and joined forces with Qi Xi, she wouldn't have ended up in this situation.
The only way to get rid of Yu Li and force her out of the Qi family is to make Qi Chenyan too busy to care for himself, which would be her best chance to return to the Qi family.
Soon, a wicked plan came to Qi Jianyue's mind.
She then called Tang Shi.
Tang Shi, who was feeling frustrated, helpless, and sad, heard Qi Jianyue's plan.
At first she was scared and refused, but greed quickly took over.
Anyway, it was just a fetus, not even fully formed yet, so what she did couldn't be considered murder.
The two hit it off immediately.
Thinking of this, Qi Jianyue comforted her, saying, "Miss Tang, don't worry, this thing of mine is very effective. Otherwise, how could I have been so lucky as to get pregnant on the first try?"
"The goods I've acquired are absolutely worth more than their price. Miss Tang, just wait and you'll marry the man of your dreams."
