Before long, Tang Anqi arrived, looking at Tang Shihan and Ye Fengyun with a puzzled expression.

"Ye Fengyun, have you been bullying my sister? I knew a scumbag like you wasn't a good person!"

Tang Anqi jumped up, intending to strike Ye Fengyun, but he simply lifted her by the armpits and set her aside as if she were a toy.

Ye Fengyun pulled out the photograph and said, "Tell your dear sister whether or not anything happened between us that night."

"Huh? Who would want to be with you? What kind of delusional, pipe-dreaming nightmare are you having?" Tang Anqi retorted.

Tang Shihan asked, "So, you did go to the nightclub that night?"

"I..."

Tang Anqi was left speechless.

Though she was not exceptionally brilliant, she possessed a bit of cunning. She quickly grasped the situation at hand. A thought immediately sprouted in her mind: If I say it wasn't me, my sister will definitely kick Ye Fengyun out. That way, I won't have to worry about my sister being bullied by this ugly brute anymore. Yes, he should be kicked out. Sister Shihan is so outstanding; how could she ever be married to such a monster?

"Sister Shihan, how could I possibly go to a nightclub?" Tang Anqi said, feigning grievance.

Tang Shihan was stunned. Ye Fengyun was equally dumbfounded.

Tang Shihan had not expected Ye Fengyun to dare lie to her, and Ye Fengyun had not expected Tang Anqi to dare double-cross him.

"Ye Fengyun! What else do you have to say for yourself?!" Tang Shihan’s eyes turned red. "It was bad enough that you betrayed me, but now you still dare to lie to me!"

Ye Fengyun glared at Tang Anqi, who lowered her head, not daring to meet his gaze. Perhaps she felt a tinge of guilt.

Ye Fengyun did not argue; instead, he laughed.

"Hahaha!"

Seeing Ye Fengyun suddenly burst into laughter, Tang Anqi was frightened and hid behind Tang Shihan.

When he finished laughing, Ye Fengyun looked at Tang Shihan and Tang Anqi with an amused expression. "Are you casting me aside now that the task is done? Tang Shihan, is this the Matriarch’s idea, or your parents'?"

Tang Shihan paused. "What do you mean?"

Ye Fengyun replied, "Without me, how could your Tang family enjoy such prosperity today? I have brought so much to the Tang family. Now that you’ve used me up, you plan to cast me aside, is that it?"

Tang Anqi scoffed, "Don't be so narcissistic. Our current prosperity is the result of Sister Shihan’s hard work. What use is a freeloading live-in son-in-law like you?"

Tang Shihan stopped Tang Anqi and looked at Ye Fengyun. "Ye Fengyun, are you implying that all those dignitaries attended our wedding only because of you?"

Ye Fengyun sneered, neither confirming nor denying it.

"Then can you tell me why? Who exactly are you?" Tang Shihan asked, voicing the question that had plagued her for days.

Ye Fengyun gave a cryptic smile. "Does it still matter now? This place may not keep me, but there are plenty of others that will. However, I must warn you: losing me, Ye Fengyun, is the greatest loss your Tang family will ever suffer. If you wish to repent one day, it will not be so easy. Farewell!"

Ye Fengyun left the Tang residence without looking back.

Tang Shihan reached out, wanting to speak, but stopped herself. She had wanted to call him back, but her inner pride would not allow it.

"Let him go. As if I care," Tang Shihan said, her words contradicting her heart.

Tang Anqi consoled her, "Sister Shihan, it’s fine. There are so many outstanding men in the world; there’s no need to be sad over such an ugly brute. With your qualifications, you deserve someone much better."

Tang Shihan remained silent. Just then, a phone call came through.
