Chapter 592 — Who Is the Bolder
"Hmph!" Tang Yun gave a cold snort and glared ferociously at Shen Yushu. In truth, Tang Yun's heart was in turmoil; she no longer knew whether she should believe what Shen Yushu had said, though by instinct she was not much inclined to.
If Wei Zhao really had something going on with them, Tang Yun did not believe he would have kept it from her! What would be the point of hiding it from her? So he had a fiancée—fine, all he had to do was tell her, and she would quietly step aside. There was no need to break it to her through someone else's mouth.
And yet the photos on Shen Yushu's phone really did show Wei Zhao's car, and that yellow Beetle was one Tang Yun had seen Wei Zhao driving! The very first time Wei Zhao came to her home, he had come in that Beetle. How could Wei Zhao not know about it?
As for the Audi 5, Tang Yun had seen that one too, at the night market street, where Wei Zhao had once stood beside the car.
Actually, Shen Yushu herself had no idea what else a couple could do after they had slept together—she could hardly claim there were children already. That would be too outrageous. If Tang Yun asked where the children were, what would she say?
So Tang Yun said nothing and just stood there glaring, and Shen Yushu too fell silent and stood there glaring back.
The several of them eyed one another like tigers watching their prey, yet no one said another word. For a moment it was impossible to tell who had the upper hand! Though it looked as if Shen Yushu and Gu Mengyao had the advantage, in reality they were just as nervous inside—after all, everything Shen Yushu had said a moment ago had been made up on the spot.
Fatso Lai had slipped far away the moment the three women started fighting! He had no wish to be dragged in as forced labor, because neither side was safe to provoke! Tang Yun was the big sister-in-law—that much Fatso Lai knew! But Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu had spoken with such sworn certainty, and Shen Yushu had produced so much evidence, that Fatso Lai knew Wei Zhao must surely be involved with them.
So the best course now was to hide, to side with neither, and that was the wisest choice. Only when he saw them stop quarreling did Fatso Lai come back over. "All right, whichever of you is Wei Zhao's first wife, whoever is the leading lady is a big sister-in-law all the same!"
Gu Mengyao nearly blurted out, Who's the big sister-in-law? But at once she remembered she was still at war with Tang Yun, so without batting an eye she happily accepted the title.
Seeing that Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu said nothing, Tang Yun lifted her chin and said nothing either.
"Ladies, big sisters-in-law, might you hold your anger a moment? The boss is in there recovering from his wounds and needs quiet. If you quarrel like this, what if the boss suffers a qi deviation?" Fatso Lai said cautiously.
"Ah!" Tang Yun gave a start, and Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu started too! Their heads had been so hot earlier that they had not thought that far, and only now, with Fatso Lai's reminder, did it dawn on them that Wei Zhao was lying in there all this while—what was the point of fighting over such meaningless things now?
Whether it was Fatso Lai's words that did the trick, or that none of them knew what else to say, the living room quieted down for the time being.
The living room now held two camps. One was Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu, the two of them having slipped off to one side and now whispering together about something.
"Xiaoshu, how could you say such filthy things just now? A threesome? Have you been reading too many dirty books?" Gu Mengyao scolded in a low voice.
"Oh, Sister Yao-yao, you know what a threesome means too? Then you've been reading dirty books as well!" Shen Yushu said, entirely unbothered.
"Don't change the subject!" Gu Mengyao shot her a glare. "What we did back there—was that really all right?"
"What's wrong with it? Brother Arrow belongs to Sister Yao-yao in the first place. Who told him to go around philandering?" Shen Yushu did not think there was anything wrong with what she had done.
"Oh!" Gu Mengyao gave a faint sigh. In truth, she did not know whether what they had just done was right or wrong; it had seemed to come from instinct, and yet also to have been provoked into it.
Over on the other side, Tang Yun had been drawn aside by Liu Xinwen, who several times opened her mouth only to stop herself. After all, this was hardly the time to ask Tang Yun about her relationship with Wei Zhao—Wei Zhao's condition was still unknown, and Tang Yun was beside herself with worry. How could she have the heart to discuss such things?
That quarrel with Shen Yushu just now had been nothing but a defense of her dignity, and at this moment Tang Yun plainly had no mind for anything else.
Seeing that everyone was standing at the door of Wei Zhao's room, and that this would never do, Fatso Lai and his wife dragged over four sofas and told them to sit down first.
Time slipped by, second by second, and there was not a sound from the room where Wei Zhao lay. Tang Yun wanted to go and look in on him, yet feared to disturb him—and Gu Mengyao felt exactly the same.
"Sister Yao-yao, I'm hungry." Shen Yushu heard her stomach growling; she wanted something to eat.
"Just bear with it a little longer. Once Wei Zhao wakes up, the three of us will go home together and have a meal!" As she said this, Gu Mengyao was not quite sure what had come over her; she deliberately raised her voice so that Tang Yun could hear it from where she stood.
"Sounds good, but I want to eat what Brother Arrow makes. His cooking is the best!" Shen Yushu chimed in, playing along with Gu Mengyao.
"Doesn't he make us breakfast every day? He's injured today, so we'll let him off." Gu Mengyao said it with unmistakable smugness. Then she caught herself: when had she become so vain? She had never been one for showing off before, had she?
Listening to the two of them, Tang Yun burned with indignation. What gave them the right to have him cook for them? She could not hold back. "Liu Xinwen, have you ever tried the roast chicken wings Wei Zhao makes? They're delicious, and he even gave me the recipe! The barbecue at my house now is all made from the recipe Wei Zhao gave me! Oh, and he's made shark meat for me too. You've had that as well, haven't you?"
Liu Xinwen sighed. Yun-yun, oh, Yun-yun, now you've started fighting over a man too! You're heaven's favored daughter, the loveliest of the three of us... but then, look at Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu. Which of them was not lovely?
"Shark meat? We've had that too. In fact, Brother Arrow and I caught that shark together!" Shen Yushu cut in.
"Hmph!" Tang Yun did not quite believe it and gave a little snort.
Still, now that the conversation had turned to food, Tang Yun realized she was a little hungry, and so was Liu Xinwen. Fat Lai, quick-witted as ever, came over and said, "Ladies, you must all be hungry. Let me have my wife fix something to eat. You're worried about the boss, sure, but you can't go and ruin your health over it; otherwise the boss will be heartbroken."
