To the Tang Family, being besieged by two great families was obviously extremely disadvantageous.
Also …
Her father was injured?
Tang Ruyan's heart skipped a beat. She felt a stabbing pain in her heart. She wondered if her father would still recognize her as a useless daughter.
Anyways, the two major families were attacking the Tang family and her father was injured. Then, the Tang family … was in big trouble!
"Ruyan, you really don't know?"
Xia Yumeng was surprised by Tang Ruyan's words. She remembered that Tang Ruyan had said that she was going to take them on a trip.
Xia Yumeng couldn't understand why Tang Ruyan didn't know that the Tang family was in such a big trouble.
Tang Ruyan came back to her senses. She looked at her best friend but didn't say anything. After a moment of silence, Tang Ruyan looked at the counter where Su Ping was accepting the registration of pets.
She made up her mind and said to Xia Yumeng, "Xiaomeng, thank you for telling me about this. I don't think I can keep you company. I have to go back."
"It's okay. But you have to be careful when you go back," Xia Yumeng said worriedly. She knew that she couldn't stop Tang Ruyan from going back, given the situation the Tang family was in. Xia Yumeng had no reason to stop her.
Tang Ruyan nodded and went to the counter at once.
Su Ping was registering a customer's pet. He had just finished when he heard Tang Ruyan's voice. "Sir."
"Yes?"
Su Ping looked up.
"I want to take a day off," Tang Ruyan said in a low voice.
Su Ping was surprised. Why would she want to take a day off when she was doing well in the store?
"What are you going to do?"
"Nothing. I just want to take a day off," Tang Ruyan said gloomily. She didn't want to drag Su Ping into this mess.
"What do you think this place is? If you don't have a good reason, I won't allow it!" Su Ping said impatiently.
The customers in the line were also looking at Tang Ruyan in surprise. Was she Su Ping's employee?
In the face of this legendary senior, he actually dared to ask for leave without any reason, and his attitude was so righteous. Amazing!
Tang Ruyan didn't know what to say. "My friend is in the Longjiang Base City. I want to ask for leave and go out with her."
She then turned and pointed at Xia Yumeng.
Xia Yumeng heard her words and saw Su Ping looking at her. She quickly stretched out her hand to greet Su Ping, showing an obedient look.
The old man standing behind her was just as nervous. He smiled at Su Ping and bowed to him from afar.
Su Ping raised his eyebrows and said to Tang Ruyan, "The seats will be full soon. You can get off work soon. If you want to keep your friend company, you don't have to take a day off. Just keep her company after work. How long do you plan to stay?"
After a moment of silence, Tang Ruyan said, "I want to take three days off. I want to go shopping with her. I don't want to stay here all day."
When she said the last sentence, her fingers clenched slightly. Only those who were familiar with her knew that when she was lying, she would do such a thing.
"You don't want to stay here?" Su Ping frowned.
He carefully looked her up and down, and when he saw her tightly clenched hands, a light flashed in his eyes as he said, "Tell me honestly, what do you want to do with your leave? You even took three days off at once. If you leave, who's going to take care of my store? Never mind. I won't ask you. You two, please come over here. "
Xia Yumeng and the old man were startled by Su Ping's greeting. Still, they forced themselves to walk over.
"Sir, it's an honor to meet you."
The two said respectfully.
They looked at Su Ping anxiously. The old man was already regretting that he didn't stop Xia Yumeng. He was afraid that Su Ping would vent his anger on them because of what had happened to Tang Ruyan.
The Xia family couldn't bear the wrath of a legendary battle pet warrior. Not to mention a legendary battle pet warrior, even the wrath of a big family like the Tang family wasn't something they could bear.
"She wants to take three days off to go out with you?" Su Ping squinted his eyes.
The two of them felt uneasy under Su Ping's stare. At that moment, Su Ping was no longer as ordinary as before. Instead, he exuded an aura of majesty that intimidated people.
"Don't scare them," Tang Ruyan said in a hurry, noticing Su Ping's attitude.
Xia Yumeng's face was ghastly pale. She had a feeling that she was surrounded by swords and that she would be torn apart by the slightest movement. That sense of danger was so real that her heart almost stopped beating.
The old man standing behind her was drenched in cold sweat. Of course, he wouldn't dare to lie in front of a legendary battle pet warrior. "Sir, please forgive us. Miss Tang wants to go back to her family. It has nothing to do with us. Please forgive me. It was a slip of the tongue. It's all my fault."
He wanted to take the blame for his lady. That way, if Su Ping really got angry, he could just kill him. At the very least, the Xia family wouldn't be implicated.
"Go back to the Tang family?"
Su Ping turned to Tang Ruyan.
"Why?"
He asked calmly.
Tang Ruyan pulled a long face. She didn't dare to look into Su Ping's eyes. "The Tang family is in trouble. I … have to go back."
"But the Tang family has kicked you out. You're no longer a member of the Tang family." Su Ping stared at her.
He remembered everything clearly, as if it had just happened yesterday.
At the Supremacy League, he had met Tang Ruyan's younger sister, the future family head of the Tang Family. She had said to him casually.
If she messes with you, just kill her.
Su Ping wouldn't have been able to forgive that kind of indifference.
Su Ping's words made Tang Ruyan raise her head again. Her eyes were calm and clear. "But I have the blood of the Tang family in me. I know that they don't see me as a member of the Tang family. But … I am a member of the Tang family. Even if the Tang family doesn't want to admit it, that is the truth!"
Su Ping was taken aback.
He suddenly felt that the girl's eyes were dazzling.
After a moment of silence, he asked, "So, you really have to go?"
"I have to go!"
"Is the Tang family in trouble? What can you do if you go?"
Tang Ruyan didn't know what to say.
She was only a seventh-rank battle pet warrior. Her battle pets were good and could be compared to the average eighth-rank battle pet warriors. However, in a battle between major families like the Situ family and the Wang family, an eighth-rank battle pet warrior was nothing more than a speck of dust. Not even a titled battle pet warrior could make a difference in such a situation.
"I can't go back to my roots. Let's die together."
Tang Ruyan gave her answer after a long silence.
Su Ping was shocked. He didn't expect her to be so determined.
"Since you're so determined to go back, I can't let you go like this."
Su Ping put a hand on her head. "You're a temporary employee that I picked up. Where am I going to find another one if you die? You said you didn't want to stay here all day. What a coincidence. I like to force people to do things they don't want to do. From now on, you'll have to stay here forever."
