Stepmother: I Am Asked To Give A Kidney To My Half-Brother

Chapter 374 - Digging a Dog Hole  



Chapter 374: Digging a Dog Hole

She looked at the ground that was still some distance beneath her. She gritted her teeth and returned to her previous rhythm. She climbed down bit by bit. When she finally stepped on the ground, her legs immediately collapsed. Fear made her entire body tremble. Her bedroom was on the fourth floor!

It was about six to seven meters high. If anything happened in the middle of her escape, she would have died! She wouldn’t even need anyone to do anything to finish her off!

She raised her swollen right hand, and the pain kept coming. This made her hate Lu Yaohua even more. Although it had nothing to do with him this time, she felt that if she hadn’t come back late, she would not have been kept under scrutiny by the old master. She didn’t even have basic human rights!

Lu Yaohua, who was far away in Shanghai, would have been speechless.

No matter what happened, it was all his fault.

After Tang Wenyi rested for a while, she stood up shakily and took a few steps towards the main entrance. As expected, she saw that the number of guards had doubled! From this, it could be seen how worried the old master was about her. She clicked her tongue. Does he think that I have no means of sneaking out?

She bent down and hid in the grass, carefully avoiding wave after wave of patrollers. At last, she came to a desolate place with weeds growing everywhere. This was a small courtyard that the Tang family had abandoned decades ago. It was rumored that the feng shui here was not good, so no one was willing to come here as time passed.

Moreover, at some point, there was news that there was a ghost here. Now, even the servants didn’t want to clean up the place. The old master also turned a blind eye. He couldn’t force them to come over, right? In any case, no one would come here even if they cleaned up the place. They might as well leave it for now.

Little did they know that there was actually a secret hidden here that only Tang Wenyi knew.

She moved a few bricks away with ease, revealing a hole in a corner. Although it was a little small and fit for dogs to crawl through, a petite person like Tang Wenyi could go through as well. It was just that… she was a little humiliated. She, the third daughter of the Tang family, had actually sunk to the point of having to crawl through a dog hole one day!

This matter must not be spread. If others found out, she might as well kill herself!

How she knew this secret could be traced back to her childhood. For a period of time, she was always tricked by her fifth sister. No matter where she hid, the other party seemed to be able to find her immediately. So, in a moment of desperation, she came to this small courtyard. Then she accidentally discovered this cave entrance when she was playing around.

Later, she realized that as long as she ran fast enough, her fifth sister would not be able to catch her. This difficult period of time was finally over. Speaking of which, she had to thank her fifth sister for her discovery. However, when she thought of the hardships she had suffered, she was not in the mood. When she saw her fifth sister, she might not be able to thank her. She might even lose control of her emotions and fight with her!

She took a deep breath, lifted her skirt, and cautiously crawled into the cave. However, just as she was about to get out at the other end, a big yellow dog suddenly walked in front of her. Tang Wenyi hurriedly waved her hand in disdain and said, “Get lost! Don’t block my way! I still have something urgent to do. I don’t have time to play with a beast like you!”

The big yellow dog seemed to understand what she was saying. It raised its leg and kicked her.

Her cries of pain rang out in succession. In her anger, Tang Wenyi sped up. Before she could do anything, the big yellow dog ran away. She took out her small mirror and looked at the disheveled woman in the reflection. She cursed, “Bastard! If I see you again, I’ll definitely kill you!”

Fortunately, she had brought makeup with her in her bag. Otherwise, she would not look presentable to the big shot. She touched up her makeup with an ugly expression as she scolded the dog. Halfway through, she realized that in her attempt to escape just now, one of the corners of her skirt got stained with moss. The stain was very noticeable because her clothes were mainly pink.

She immediately widened her eyes and said angrily, “Ahhh! Why am I so f*cking unlucky!”

After finally settling this series of matters, she was running late for her appointment. Hence, she hurriedly called a taxi and left the old residence ‘smoothly’.

However, what she did not know was that—her actions were clearly seen by someone standing in the bell tower. Her light floral dress, coupled with her elegant knitted shawl jacket, made her look like a lily swaying in the wind. Although she looked weak, she had strength of character.

Tang Yajing placed her hand on the railing. The warm sun seemed to glow on her fair skin, making her look like a fairy who had descended from the sky. Her black eyes, which were devoid of any machinations, added to her otherworldly aura. The corners of her lips curled up into a faint smile, making her look aloof and unapproachable.

A gentle breeze brushed past her face. The leaves on the towering tree in the Tang family’s old residence rustled. Her coat slid in a beautiful arc, and her long black hair that was casually tied behind her was flying in the air.

Standing behind her was a servant in a maid’s dress. She looked a little lifeless, but her toned muscles showed that she was not an ordinary maid. However, she asked expressionlessly, “Fifth Miss, Third Miss disobeyed orders and went out on her own. Don’t you need to stop her?”

“Of course… there’s no need.”

Tang Yajing deliberately dragged out the word, wanting to test the maid’s attitude. In the end, the other party was still unmoved. There was not even a change in her gaze. She was indeed someone personally chosen by the old master. Within their circle, her temperament was extremely outstanding.

Although the old master wanted her to nurture a trusted aide, this person was sent by him after all, so she was still a little worried. However, she was quite satisfied with this maid. After a few days of observation, she realized that this person knew quite a lot. Other than cooking, she could also protect her at all times. She could also engage in conversation with her at work.

If the maid had the Tang family’s bloodline, she might compete with her for the position of the head of the family. The old master had done his best to send such a capable person to her side.

However, it was also because of this matter that the other sisters almost fell out at the old residence. After all, this was the first time that the old master had specially sent someone over. Who didn’t know that with his judgment, the person he chose would not be bad. This also proved how much he valued his fifth daughter. He was clearly just short of saying that she would be the next head of the family.

In the end, in order to calm her sisters down, the old master even said, “If any of you is stronger than No. 5, I don’t mind choosing someone personally for you!”
