Chapter 61: Who doesn't know that Tang Yuan is as obedient as a rabbit?

Tang Yuan felt as though she had swallowed a bottle of concentrated sulfuric acid. From her mouth down to her throat and into her stomach, everything burned fiercely, as if it were being corroded away.

"I will settle accounts with you another day."

Dropping these words, she turned on her heel and left directly, heading first to the KTV where Sheng Yun had met with her accident—an establishment belonging to the Li family.

The Li family and the Sheng family were not on good terms. The Sheng family had not yet managed to obtain the surveillance footage, and the two sides were reportedly at loggerheads.

Hearing that the Sheng family had not yet secured the footage, Tang Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and immediately dialed Li Hemian's number.

"Li Hemian, about that kiss the other day, I’d like to apologize to you. Are you free right now?"

Li Hemian had an older brother who held the actual reins of power in the family. He himself was just a carefree young master content to drift through life, yet the entire family doted on him immensely.

"You, apologizing to me? Are you healed already? You looked like you were covered in blood that day."

"If I don't apologize to you, I won't be able to sleep."

This remark made Li Hemian feel quite pleased inside. "Fine then, I'll send you my address. Let's see what kind of game you're trying to play."

The address was Li Hemian's private residence. Although Tang Yuan had known him for many years, she had genuinely never been to his home before.

Having moved out of the Li family estate to live on his own, he had invested in several projects that turned a profit. Combined with the shares of the Li Corporation he held in his hands, it was enough for him to live extravagantly for the rest of his life.

Li Hemian had a few friends over at the moment. He waved his hand dismissively. "Alright, alright, get lost, all of you. I'm having someone over later."

"Is Young Master Li taking a girlfriend now? Planning to make some passionate romance, huh? Haha, we really shouldn't be staying here."

"Get lost, get lost, what girlfriend? I'm not interested in women."

Playing a few more rounds of video games or going out for a few more drinks was far better than that.

The group left amidst chuckles and laughter.

Barely ten minutes after they left, Tang Yuan arrived.

Li Hemian was sitting on the sofa like a lord, holding a game controller in one hand while resting the other casually on the couch, assuming a nonchalant posture. "Go ahead and apologize. Let's see how you plan to do it."

That kiss—though it was only on the cheek—was something he still harbored resentment over. He wished he could strangle Tang Yuan.

Filthy to the core. Who knew how many times this woman and Shen Zhou had already done it.

He had no desire to date, but even if he did, he wanted someone innocent.

Today, Tang Yuan was wearing a pair of faded, washed-out jeans with a corner of her top tucked in, making her waist look exceptionally slender.

She had also tied her hair into a high ponytail. Having spent the previous week recovering in the hospital, she looked somewhat thinner, making her palm-sized face appear even smaller.

Right now, if she were placed among a group of female college students, no one would ever suspect she was already married.

There was always this raw, untamed yet alluring innocence about her.

Lazily pinching the controller, Li Hemian gazed at the large screen in front of him, thinking about switching to a different game, when out of the corner of his eye he saw her walking up swiftly. She grabbed his collar, pressed her lips straight against his, and even managed to snap a photo.

"Click."

He froze. By the time he recovered, his cheeks instantly flushed a deep, blazing crimson.

"Damn it! Tang Yuan, are you out of your mind?!"

"You fucking bitch! I'll kill you!!"

He rubbed his lips furiously, wishing he could scrub them until they bled. Shock and fury burned in the depths of his eyes, making his lips tremble with rage.

Tang Yuan stood there, her expression calm. "Give me the surveillance footage from the KTV where Sheng Yun had her accident last night. Otherwise, this photo will be sent straight to Shen Zhou's phone. You two are on pretty good terms, and I'm sure you wouldn't want to fall out with your buddy over this, right?"

Flames flickered in Li Hemian's eyes. He had never seen such a shameless, despicable bitch.

"Fine, send it! Let's see whether Shen Zhou believes you or me."

Tang Yuan lowered her eyelashes, her fingers seemingly tapping away at a text message while she continued her threats aloud. "You've known me for over a decade. If someone told you that Tang Yuan forcefully kissed a man, would you believe it?"

Of course he wouldn't.

All these years, who didn't know that Tang Yuan was as obedient and docile as a rabbit?
