From Evil Sect Leader to Doctor-Chapter 284 - 260: New Grudges and Old Hatreds

At this moment, a group of people approached; the visitor was Tang Jingwei, the president of Huayuan Group.

It was Xu Chunliang's first time meeting Tang Jingwei. Accompanied by six men, Tang Jingwei strode briskly towards the emergency room, exuding authority with a rather anxious expression. After all, the injured was his precious son. Despite Tang Tianyi's incompetence, he only had one son, who was as dear to him as his own life.

Tang Jingwei did not recognize Xu Chunliang; his only concern now was his son's condition.

After the group passed by, Hua Zhuyue said, "A father's fault if his child is not taught."

Tang Tianyi's current state was related to Tang Jingwei's indulgence and leniency. With Tang Tianyi's arrogance and domineering nature, if not restrained, he would suffer a great loss in the future.

Shang Lijun said, "How long do I have to keep up this act?" Being an actress isn't easy; after a whole day of crying and fussing, she felt somewhat drained.

Hua Zhuyue said, "I'll have a word with the police, we should be able to leave first."

A negotiation and game were imminent. Hua Zhuyue had leverage over Tang Tianyi, backed by the Blue Star Group. Tang Tianyi's assault on Jiang Lin already crossed the Orchid Sect's line. On this principle matter, she wouldn't easily back down; Tang Tianyi must pay the price.

Hua Zhuyue was somewhat worried about Xu Chunliang. She initially didn't recommend Xu Chunliang getting involved in this mess because he was in Changxing, and Huayuan Group had already invested in Changxing, becoming the gold sponsor. Conflict with the big boss was not a wise move in the workplace.

After this incident, the relationship between Xu Chunliang and Tang Tianyi was tense. Huayuan Group couldn't pretend nothing happened.

It was Xu Chunliang who insisted on joining this revenge plan. Although it was devised by Hua Zhuyue, Xu Chunliang played a crucial role in it.

After the three of them left the hospital, Hua Zhuyue invited them for a late-night snack to calm Shang Lijun's nerves. Today, this good sister had done a great job, making quite a few sacrifices.

Shang Lijun asked a question that also troubled Hua Zhuyue: "Xu Chunliang, why did Tang Tianyi take off his clothes?"

Xu Chunliang took a sip of his drink and said, "You should ask yourself."

"Ask me?" Shang Lijun looked bewildered.

Xu Chunliang said with a grin, "You're too beautiful. Tang Tianyi, someone lacking morals and self-control, would definitely want to commit a crime when he sees you. I just didn't expect him to be so shameless, attempting to assault you right in front of everyone."

Shang Lijun looked at Hua Zhuyue, seeking her opinion; she didn't believe Xu Chunliang's words one bit.

Hua Zhuyue sighed and said, "Truly shameless!" yet her gaze was focused on Xu Chunliang.

Xu Chunliang smiled brightly, shamelessly unaware.

Shang Lijun said, "You two are scheming and calculative; my role seems to sacrifice appearances. I really lost out today."

Xu Chunliang stood up and respectfully poured a drink for Shang Lijun, saying, "Sister Shang, thank you for your hard work."

Shang Lijun took the drink and said, "If I had known the sacrifices would be this great, I would've thought twice."

Hua Zhuyue responded, "The original plan didn't include exposure, that was an accident."

Shang Lijun said, "Now I understand what a car crash scene means. Zhu Yue, your acting is better than mine; why don't you do it yourself?"

Hua Zhuyue raised her glass and said, "I toast to Sister Shang."

Xu Chunliang said leisurely, "She seems younger than you."

Shang Lijun burst out laughing; Hua Zhuyue almost wanted to throw the drink in her hand at Xu Chunliang's face. In what way was she inferior? Is bigger necessarily better?

Xu Chunliang said, "I meant age."

Shang Lijun said, "Not happy, so you're saying I'm old."

Xu Chunliang replied, "Don't misunderstand, I meant only someone with Sister Shang's social experience could have handled tonight's events so perfectly. Even Sister Hua couldn't have done it."

"Stop trying to play me. I've figured it out; you're the worst of the lot."

Hua Zhuyue said, "Didn't I tell you your assessment of men is spot-on?"

Shang Lijun downed her drink and said, "Do you really plan to put that punk away?"

Hua Zhuyue smiled slightly, "He needs a serious lesson. If you decide to deal with someone, you must crush their spirit completely; otherwise, future troubles will be endless."

Xu Chunliang wholeheartedly agreed with Hua Zhuyue's words. His current troubles stemmed from not breaking Tang Tianyi's confidence back in Dongzhou. Crushing it and stepping on it several more times back then would've prevented recent issues.

Hua Zhuyue reminded Xu Chunliang, "I suspect they will look to you to solve the problem, just place all the blame on us."

Xu Chunliang found that although Hua Zhuyue was from the Orchid Sect, she was very righteous. He smiled and said, "I'll handle it." After finishing his drink, he was the first to get up and leave, as the party school had attendance rules, and one couldn't enter the gates after eleven.

Hua Zhuyue offered to find someone to take him home, but Xu Chunliang said it wasn't necessary.

After he left, Shang Lijun reminded Hua Zhuyue, "Be careful."

"Careful of what?"

Shang Lijun clinked her glass with hers and said, "This guy has a lot of schemes. You've met your match."

Hua Zhuyue scoffed, "He's still a bit young, right?" Although she acknowledged Xu Chunliang's intelligence, she didn't see him as a rival.

Shang Lijun said with a smile, "Endless tricks, and so many styles; having such a young boyfriend wouldn't be bad at all, quite thrilling!"

Hua Zhuyue couldn't help but laugh, "What? Tempted? Do you want me to play matchmaker for you?"

Shang Lijun said, "I'm not up to his league." Then she lowered her voice and said, "Just afraid someone might have had a change of heart."
