No one is more familiar with this item than Tang Yanqi, because it is the only valuable thing her mother left behind. Tang Yanqi remembers, when she was little, she often saw her mother smiling absentmindedly at this bracelet. Tang Yanqi didn’t know the origin of the bracelet, but she knew it must be very important to her mother.
Shen Wanqing was startled by Tang Yanqi’s action, but quickly recovered, smiling: "Wanwan, what’s wrong?"
As she spoke, she signaled to Tang Ruhai to drive the strangers out, because the greatest conflict in the Tang Family couldn’t be exposed to outsiders.
Once only the few of them were left in the office, Shen Wanqing’s expression immediately changed, trying to pull her hand out of Tang Yanqi’s grip, but Tang Yanqi held on tightly.
Normally, Tang Yanqi always appeared obedient and calm. Although she didn’t like to interact with people, she seemed like a gentle little girl. But now, her always composed eyes were filled with severity, and she looked like a knife gleaming with cold light, making people feel intimidated just by looking at her.
Shen Wanqing was startled by her appearance but thought to herself this was her own turf. She lifted her chin arrogantly in a superior manner: "Tang Yanqi, is this how you talk to an elder? Raised by a mother, but without motherly teachings."
Tang Yanqi didn’t care about Shen Wanqing’s sarcastic words, and swiftly snatched the bracelet from Shen Wanqing’s hand. Her movements were fast, and with great force, a shallow scratch appeared on Shen Wanqing’s wrist from the edge of Tang Yanqi’s nail.
Shen Wanqing cried out instantly and cursed: "Tang Yanqi, you little bitch."
Tang Yanqi held the bracelet tightly in her hand, glaring angrily at everyone: "I told you, don’t touch my things."
"What do you mean your things? It’s in the house, so I can take it whenever I want. Just a worthless bracelet, treating it like a treasure."
Shen Wanqing angrily shouted and looked at Tang Ruhai: "Look at this, your daughter is uneducated. I can’t live with this, even a little bitch can bully me."
Shen Wanqing, like a shrew scolding in the street, Tang Ruhai’s face darkened, and he quietly reprimanded Tang Yanqi: "Apologize to your Aunt at once."
Tang Yanqi didn’t even glance at them and turned to walk out. Suddenly, she was pushed hard by someone, staggering, and soon the bracelet in her hand was snatched away. Before Tang Yanqi could react, she heard a "crash," and the originally clear and tender green bracelet had broken into three pieces.
A young voice sounded: "Little bitch, let you bully my mommy."
Tang Yanqi widened her eyes, and the person who broke her bracelet stepped on the already broken bracelet a few more times harshly.
Almost instinctively, Tang Yanqi pushed that person away and picked up the broken bracelet. An unprecedented fury surged in her heart, and she glared viciously at Tang Qing, her blood-related brother.
Tang Qing was nine years younger than Tang Yanqi, already a teenager, but he behaved like an immature child. When glared at by Tang Yanqi, Tang Qing suddenly burst into tears, and Shen Wanqing, protecting her son, slapped Tang Yanqi across the face mercilessly.
"Bitch, what do you think you are, daring to bully my son."
Saying this, as if not venting enough anger, Shen Wanqing picked up her bag and smashed it hard on Tang Yanqi’s head.
