Chapter 58: Hit by His Little Lover

Sheng Yun was tired from kicking and felt immensely satisfied when she saw Tang Yuan collapse to the ground, lingering on the brink of death. "Not only did I sleep with your husband, but I can also humiliate you like this, and there is nothing you can do about it. Don't think Tang Shangxu will take your side. The burden of the entire Tang family rests on his shoulders, and every step he takes must be carefully calculated. He has no time to deal with you, a worthless married-off sister."

This was the truth.

Tang Shangxu's life could not tolerate the slightest error, and he did not like to meddle in such matters.

Tang Yuan hunched her back, her mouth filled with the taste of blood. A man's voice drifted from outside the door—it was Sheng Yun's brother.

"Don't beat her to death."

Sheng Yun's brother doted on her the most and would not allow her to suffer any grievances.

There was also an uncle involved in the underworld, and this uncle was the most terrifying of all, because he had been a wanted criminal years ago. Later, using the Sheng family's influence, he washed his hands of his past, assumed a completely new identity, and discarded his former self so that he could continue to show his face in the imperial capital.

Once he made a move, the humiliation Tang Yuan would face tonight would reach its absolute peak.

Having had her fill of beating, Sheng Yun waved her hand at the people standing by. "Throw her out."

Several men stepped forward and immediately hoisted Tang Yuan up.

Tang Yuan was like a dead dog, her mouth full of the coppery taste of blood, her body convulsing with pain.

Her mind roared with thunder, yet her gaze remained completely calm.

She wouldn't stay like this forever...

Her teeth bit down hard on her lips until they bled, madness seeping through the calmness in her eyes.

Sheng Yun seemed unsatisfied. She took out her phone and dialed Shen Zhou's number.

Before Shen Zhou, she could be poised and generous at times, deeply affectionate at others, or utterly charming and alluring. Though they had only been intimate a few times, she had left a mark in Shen Zhou's heart.

"President Shen, you only spent a few drinks with me tonight. Aren't you afraid I'll be impolite to your wife?"

The words were flirtatious, and Shen Zhou's tone was gentle.

"How else would you like me to make amends?"

Sheng Yun chuckled softly. "You know what I mean. Shall we find another time to meet up? The bed in your master bedroom is very comfortable to sleep in."

As she spoke, she looked at Tang Yuan, the corners of her mouth curling up.

Shen Zhou closed the documents before him. "We'll talk about it later."

Jiang Nian, standing quietly to the side, handed over another folder. The CEO seemed to be in a bad mood tonight.

Sheng Yun hung up the phone and maliciously tapped Tang Yuan's face with it.

"Did you hear that? Women of the Tang family aren't worth much. If you hadn't looked somewhat similar to his first love back then, did you really think he would marry you? Shen Zhou is not someone you can ever aspire to."

Tang Yuan let out a cold laugh, a sound that drove Sheng Yun into a fury.

She swung her hand and delivered another vicious slap. "Bitch! Cross me again next time, and I will make you wish you were dead."

The bodyguards threw Tang Yuan directly onto the roadside.

Achingly sore all over, Tang Yuan propped herself up against the wall, coughed up a mouthful of blood, and felt her stomach spasm with pain.

She could not return to Crescent Bay right now, nor could she return to the Tang residence.

She called Chen Meng, who drove over and immediately burst into tears upon seeing her tragic state.

"Yuan Yuan! Those murderous bastards, who could do this to you?!"

Sitting in the driver's seat, Tang Yuan had a blazing fire burning in her eyes.

Terrified, Chen Meng rushed her straight to the hospital. After a series of examinations, they discovered several broken ribs.

"Call Shen Zhou. You've known each other for over a dozen years, after all; he won't just stand by and watch you get bullied."

Every breath Tang Yuan took was excruciating. Her face was swollen high, resembling a steamed bun.

"It was beaten by his little lover."
