Chapter 717: Chapter 717: The Earlier You Confess, The Sooner It Ends!_1
The two of them headed to the garage, started the car, and went out for late-night snacks.
As Leng Chenmo drove, he noticed that Tang Zhou, who was usually full of antics, sat extraordinarily silent in the passenger seat. This was unusual. He glanced at him several times. Even if Leng Chenmo was not someone good at initiating conversation, he couldn’t help but ask, “Something on your mind?”
It seemed like Tang Zhou didn’t hear him at all, instead staring at the neon lights flashing by outside the window.
His normally lively face was now tightened, as if contemplating a significant life decision. Seeing Tang Zhou baffled Leng Chenmo. Tang Zhouzhou was the playful one, who had suddenly become quiet, and Leng Chenmo found it quite unsettling.
In the end, they parked at the garage of the building where the Heavenly Barbecue Restaurant was located.
After turning off the engine, they found the elevator and took it upstairs.
In the elevator, the eerily silent Tang Zhou suddenly said, “I need to use the restroom, do you need to go?”
“I don’t, you go,” Leng Chenmo responded.
However, Tang Zhou retorted in an unusually stern voice, “No, You must go!”
Leng Chenmo was confused. He looked down at Tang Zhou who had a serious expression on his face and replied somewhat puzzedly, “Normally, you don’t like going to the restroom with others, what’s different tonight?”
Tang Zhou, full of vexation, snapped,”Are you coming with me or not? If you are not, then we part ways here!”
After all, he had already put a knife to his own throat. He was exasperated and didn’t want this to continue. His brother was right. People can’t be too submissive. He didn’t want to deceive Leng Chenmo any further and risk being scorned by him later on.
This sort of thing could only be hidden for a while. Better to confess early and end it early!
“Alright,” Leng Chenmo handed him a word, as if he had guessed something.
As expected, Tang Zhou’s agitated voice followed, “Don’t think I’m afraid of you just because you’re the Crown Prince of S Country! Let’s make an end to this today, so we part ways in the future. Always remember the kindness I showed you by feeding you and taking you in at your lowest. Show some decency! If not, even if you run off to S Country, I will hunt you down and kill you!”
After his secret was exposed, Tang Zhou worried Leng Chenmo would broadcast it, ruining his ability to live peacefully.
Hearing the words “part ways”, Leng Chenmo’s face turned cold. He said nothing and instead stared deeply at Tang Zhou.
The silent pressure was suffocating. Tang Zhou couldn’t shake free from it, so he glared back at Leng Chenmo, “What are you looking at? I will tell you…”
“Ding”, the elevator door opened.
Leng Chenmo was not interested in hearing him talk. He tightened his grip on Tang Zhou’s arm, pulling him out of the elevator and directly into the men’s restroom according to the signs, then released him. With a serious look on his face, he waited for Tang Zhou’s next move.
“Speak, how do you want to end this?”
Tang Zhou kicked all the stalls to confirm they were empty, then locked the restroom door behind him. He then walked in front of Leng Chenmo, clearly agitated, pointed at his nose and sarcastically said, “Listen, I’ve been fed up with you for a long time. You have regained your noble status now and can rise again. There’s no need for you to hang around me any longer. Let’s say goodbye! I will show you what kind of girl I really am. After you’ve seen, go as far away from me as you can. But if you dare reveal a word of this, even if you’re at the ends of the earth, I will never let you off!”
