"I beg you, no matter what happens, please don't push me away …"
"Even if the whole world forgets you, I won't forget you." Tang Li held Shen Yu's hand and put it to his side. He leaned against the back of Shen Yu's hand and begged pitifully, almost humbly, "I just need a little time to remember you and those things."
"I'm not like them …"
Tang Li seemed to be talking to himself.
Shen Yu sighed. He wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say.
After a long time without getting a response from Shen Yu, Tang Li seemed to be a little panicked. He suddenly let go of Shen Yu's hand and stood up. He took out a folded piece of paper from nowhere and handed it to Shen Yu with a little nervousness and courage.
"Du Pingting approached you with bad intentions. She wanted to use you."
Shen Yu took the list and said with a smile, "Now that I'm in such dire straits, is there anything she can use …"
He paused before he finished speaking.
Shen Yu looked at the clear words on the list and fell into a long silence for a while.
Before, he did feel that Du Pingting's behavior was very strange. She said that only he could help her. She seemed to be in a hurry to get married and even listed a lot of benefits after marriage to him …
Combined with this list, it turned out that she wanted him to be a father.
Thinking of this, Shen Yu's face turned blue.
He thought about how the original owner of the body was so easy to talk to when Du Pingting ran away from the marriage. After this kind of thing happened, the first person she looked for was the original owner.
Tang Li observed Shen Yu's face and gently squeezed his hand. "If you don't want her to pester you, I can help you drive her away."
Shen Yu was upset.
If it were in the past, he wouldn't waste time and energy on an unrelated person. But now, Du Pingting's appearance really disturbed his life, especially with Old Master Shen.
When Tang Li saw Shen Yu's hesitation, he thought that his words had made him unhappy. He suddenly felt very uncomfortable.
It was as if something was blocking it.
It was so stuffy.
"Shen Yu, you have to believe me. Du Pingting is not a good person." Tang Li had always been calm and self-controlled, but this time, he felt like a primary school student who was eager to snitch. "I've investigated her. Her private life abroad is very messy, and she doesn't even know who the father of the child in her belly is."
Shen Yu felt strange. "Why didn't she abort the child?"
Based on Du Pingting's selfish nature, he didn't seem like someone who would bear so much pressure for an unborn child.
Tang Li's eyes darkened, and there was some imperceptible hostility in his tone. "If she doesn't have this child, she will completely lose the right to be a mother."
Shen Yu: "…"
Before Shen Yu could react, Tang Li suddenly changed the topic. He bent slightly and put his hands on Shen Yu's shoulders. His attitude was a little strong, and he begged pitifully on the surface. "It's you who don't believe me. I can show you the evidence, but can you not gamble with your future? I swear, I will definitely return the Shen family to you in one piece. Before that, wait for me … "
It was not easy to investigate the incident that year.
What's more, the Tang family deliberately concealed it. Anyone who was involved in the incident had taken the money and left home when Tang Li's parents died.
For Tang Li, collecting witnesses and material from nearly ten years ago was tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack.
But after such a long time, he was not completely fruitless.
Two days ago, Tang Li contacted the senior executive who used to work for the Tang family. The senior executive took advantage of the fact that he had something on the Tang family. In the end, the Tang family made him obedient. Recently, his family members were sick, and he asked the Tang family for money, but he was rejected. He was very anxious.
Tang Li's appearance was a timely help for the senior executive. He didn't even inquire about Tang Li's identity, and Tang Li had already asked him a lot of things.
Just one more year.
One more year at most.
He wouldn't let Shen Yu wait for too long, but he also needed time.
Tang Li's mind was in a whirl. There were too many things he wanted to say, but he couldn't say, and he couldn't do what he wanted to do.
In the end, it all turned into humble begging.
"I beg you, ignore Du Pingting. She's not worth your time."
Shen Yu shook his head helplessly, got up, and walked to the door. He opened the door, turned to Tang Li, and said, "It's late. You should go back."
Tang Li didn't want to leave so soon, but he didn't dare to disobey Shen Yu's words.
He walked slowly to the door.
He plucked up his courage and asked, "Did you agree to marry Du Pingting?"
Shen Yu frowned. "When did I say I was with her?"
Tang Li was stunned.
"Don't you often follow me? You can't even tell whether I'm hiding from her or not? " Shen Yu looked at Tang Li's stunned look and couldn't help but feel funny. He walked over and pinched Tang Li's cheek. "Even if you didn't tell me about her pregnancy, I wouldn't get back together with her. No matter how down and out I am, I won't fall to the point where I have to marry someone I don't like."
Tang Li blinked in confusion.
Then, his expression was gradually covered by surprise.
From sadness to happiness, it seemed to only take a few seconds. Tang Li felt as if he was sitting on a roller coaster that kept rolling, and the ups and downs of his life were all explained here.
Fortunately, the ending was good.
"I can help you drive her away." Tang Li volunteered. "If you want …"
Shen Yu didn't care. "Up to you."
With that, he urged again, "You can go back.
Go. "
Tang Li was still reluctant to leave. When Shen Yu sent him to the door, he suddenly leaned over and pecked Shen Yu on the corner of his mouth when Shen Yu wasn't paying attention.
"We haven't broken up yet." Tang Li whispered, "Even if you break up, I won't agree."
Then, as if he was afraid of hearing a bad answer from Shen Yu, Tang Li ran down the stairs quickly.
Shen Yu: "…"
He was stunned.
The corner of his mouth twitched.
Strangely, he felt more relaxed than heavy.
Shen Yu originally thought that when Tang Li said he wanted to drive away Du Pingting, he was threatening her with the ultrasound bill. He didn't expect that after a week of silence, a marketing account on Weibo would suddenly release a few pieces of breaking news.
[Porter: A fan contributed. A famous beauty from S City came back to China pregnant. She cheated on four or five men to find a new father for her child. In the end, paper can't hide the truth. After being exposed, she was beaten up by one of the men. Now she's in the hospital. She's probably lost her child …]
[Continuing the previous post. The beauty was once engaged. Her ex-fiancé is very famous in S City.]
[Someone guessed right. The beauty's ex-fiancé just went bankrupt. What a pitiful man.]
In less than half a day after these few posts were posted, the average number of comments per Weibo had exceeded 20,000.
Although the Shen family and Shen Yu had always kept a low profile and were only famous in the entertainment circle and industry, they couldn't withstand the commotion caused by Du Pingting. Relying on their good family background, they formed cliques in the socialite circle. They became internet celebrities, dissed fans, and even funded two very bad low-budget movies.
Du Pingting already had a bad reputation on the Internet. Now that this incident happened, there was no exception in the comments that weren't mocking and ridiculing her.
[I've long heard that this woman has a lot of fun abroad. I didn't expect her to secretly come back to China and cause such a big commotion.]
[Speaking of which, who's Du Pingting's ex-fiancé? He's so mysterious.]
[To some fans, please search 'Shen Yu', 'Tang Li', 'Shen family' on Porter's Weibo. Although Du Pingting is very strange, her ex-fiancé is really a good man. Thank you for letting go of her ex-fiancé.]
The marketing Weibo account did indeed write about the grievances and disputes between Shen Yu and Tang Li. It was during the period when the Shen family went bankrupt.
However, Shen Yu and Tang Li weren't in the entertainment circle. They weren't famous and didn't have much self-awareness. At that time, there weren't many onlookers who clicked on that Weibo post. The few comments below were almost all about the appearance of the two people involved.
Now that they went back to that Weibo post, the number of comments had already exceeded 50,000.
[Sob sob sob … What kind of godly appearance is this! I don't care what kind of grudges these two little brothers have. I just want them to debut immediately!]
[I don't know if you guys have noticed, but Shen Yu really dotes on Tang Li. When he was young, she provided him with good food and drinks. When he grew up, she gave him all the family business. If that's not enough …]
[Long live Yu Li!]
[Sorry, I'm on Li Yu's side. Although Tang Li is young, he's the one who looks good!]
[I'm drunk. Do some people still have their values? Have they lost their minds after looking at the face? It's obvious that Tang Li repaid Shen Yu's kindness with ingratitude and robbed Shen Yu's family business. He caused Shen Yu's company to go bankrupt and his house to be sealed. You guys actually made that ingrate and the victim a couple? Amazing!]
So, the two people in the building argued about whether Tang Li betrayed Shen Yu or not.
This matter was so big that it even spread to Old Master Shen's ears through other people.
Old Master Shen remembered that he had been provoked by Du Pingting and lost his temper to Shen Yu many times. He felt guilty. After hesitating for a while, he apologized to Shen Yu on the phone.
Shen Yu knew that Old Master Shen was under a lot of psychological pressure. He had never been angry about the previous matters. When he received the call, he was so surprised that he didn't know what to say.
After being stunned for a while, Shen Yu said gently, "Grandpa, you don't have to apologize to me. I know you care about me."
Old Master Shen sighed.
Then, there was a long silence.
Shen Yu was sitting in the office. He wasn't very busy, so he chatted with Old Master Shen.
When he was about to hang up the phone, Old Master Shen suddenly said, "The news about Du Pingting was exposed by Tang Li, right?"
Hearing this, Shen Yu was shocked and broke out in a cold sweat.
"It's not him!" Shen Yu denied without thinking.
Old Master Shen, "…"
Shen Yu immediately realized that his reaction was a little too intense. He quickly calmed down and pretended to be calm. "Maybe it's Du Pingting's ex-boyfriend. There are many people who want to mess with her. How could Tang Li care about these things …"
After saying that, Shen Yu tried to cover up his guilty conscience with a string of laughter.
Unfortunately, the more he laughed, the more he laughed.
After a while, Shen Yu slowly stopped laughing.
Old Master Shen had already guessed a thing or two. He asked directly, "When did you start contacting each other?"
Shen Yu struggled for a moment. In the end, he chose to tell the truth. "I, I want to believe Tang Li this time."
Old Master Shen said, "Do you believe that he will spit out all the things he got to you?"
"…" Shen Yu only said, "I believe him."
Old Master Shen smiled. "Okay, then that's it."
Shen Yu sighed. "Will you blame me?"
"I used to, but not now," Old Master Shen said. Old Master Shen said, "Anyway, you're the one who made the choice. You're also the one who has to bear the consequences. Even if you make the wrong choice, it's not up to an old man like me to suffer. I'm about to enter the grave. Why should I worry about you?"
Shen Yu's eyes were hot. "Grandpa …"
What responded to him was a heartless beep.
The other side hung up the phone.
