The Bowl of Seven Emotions

"What is she afraid of?" Tang Susu asked Gou Dan, the cat who was eating happily beside her.

"Me, of course. Even if she occupies someone else's body, she can't hide her evil nature. It just so happens that she's on my menu," Gou Dan replied casually without raising his head.

Tang Susu shook her head with a smile. This was the seemingly beautiful ending on the surface.

Then, she emphasized, "Don't eat anything you shouldn't!"

Gou Dan stuck his tongue out at her and replied perfunctorily, "Got it."

Many years ago, there were even dragons on its menu. Now it had been reduced to evil spirits. Thinking about it carefully, it was really getting worse and worse.

However, compared to it, other similar creatures didn't seem to be doing much better. At least it still had something to eat and could eat its fill, and occasionally even had a big meal.

Different choices lead to completely different endings.

Most of its former peers, who were once powerful, had vanished into thin air, and no one remembered them, but it was still alive.

After dinner, hearing that Qi Yue had already paid the bill, Tang Susu carried Gou Dan and walked home with a satisfied heart. Although it was a little cold outside, she was dressed warmly enough. It wasn't too far from home, a 20-minute walk, just enough to digest the food.

Walking slowly back along the street, under the streetlights on both sides, pedestrians hurried by, and few were as leisurely as her. This kind of life was very suitable for her, comfortable and at ease.

After returning to her doorstep, she decided to take back what she had just said.

The Tang family was always so haunting.

This time, it was not Tang Qi who came, but her father, Tang Qiming. It had been a long time since she had seen her father and daughter. She felt that Tang Qiming seemed a little different from what she remembered. She didn't know if it was because the corridor was dim or the lighting, but he looked a little old.

A man in his forties was a charming age for many people, and Tang Qiming was one of the best. How could he be old?

"Is something the matter?" Tang Susu walked towards the door of her house, the bunch of keys in her hand jingling.

"Can't I come to see you if there's nothing? You didn't come home for the New Year, and you didn't even come to pay your respects. Where did you learn your rules?" There was no anger in Tang Qiming's voice, and his tone was indifferent. It sounded as if she had committed a heinous crime.

Tang Susu turned her head and glanced at the man, asking with a smile, "I wonder when did father think of me?"

The father and daughter were speechless again.

She did not have any rules, but was Tang Qiming any better?

He kept questioning and blaming her. As a father, how competent was he?

Everyone was equally matched, so it was meaningless to blame each other.

As expected, Tang Qiming didn't mention this topic again and remained silent.

Tang Susu opened the door and slapped her hand on the wall. The light in the living room turned on, and a wave of warmth enveloped her, slowly dispelling the chill from her body.

She walked into the house, and Tang Qiming followed.

After pouring him a glass of hot water, Tang Susu turned her attention back to Tang Qiming, who was sitting on the sofa. She couldn't help but think of last year, when he was also sitting on the sofa, accompanied by his precious second daughter. With just one sentence, he took away her only shelter.

Just to force her to be a mistress for an old man.

At that time, did he ever think about today?

Tang Susu was not surprised at all that Tang Qiming would come to her. The gossip in the company, no one deliberately stopped it, it would spread sooner or later.

Especially when it came to Shi Chengxuan's ownership, who wouldn't care a little?

"I heard you're with Shi Chengxuan?" After entering, Tang Qiming had secretly observed the house, and there was no trace of a man in it.

But the person who told him the news was so certain that he couldn't help but come to Tang Susu to confirm it himself, plus his second daughter had also mentioned that she had seen Shi Chengxuan enter his eldest daughter's house with her own eyes.

"No."

"If not, why is everyone saying that!" Tang Susu's denial made Tang Qiming a little annoyed.

Tang Susu replied nonchalantly, "I'm not them, how would I know?"

Tang Qiming stared at Tang Susu, the look in his eyes hidden behind his glasses became a little cold, perhaps he thought Tang Susu deliberately didn't want to tell the truth.

After a moment of silence, Tang Qiming spoke again, "You should know that CEO Shi and our family have some misunderstandings."

Seeing that Tang Susu just raised her eyebrows, he continued, "I hope you can help clarify these misunderstandings, after all…harmony brings wealth."

At this time, Tang Susu couldn't help but admire Shi Chengxuan.

This man's methods were truly breathtaking. It was the first time she had seen someone cheat Tang Qiming, and Tang Qiming didn't retaliate, and even wanted to make peace with him.

Perhaps, it was because Tang Qiming knew that even if he chose to retaliate, he would still be the one to suffer in the end.

But…

"What does that have to do with me?" Tang Susu smiled at her father.

Tang Qiming was only slightly startled, his anger flashed and was suppressed by him, "Susu, I know you have some misunderstandings about me and the Tang family. Maybe I didn't do well enough before and made you feel uncomfortable. But you have to understand that your surname is Tang, and in the eyes of outsiders, you are my daughter and represent the face of the Tang family. If the Tang family is not good, your situation will not be too good."

"This is the first time I've heard that I'm actually qualified to represent the face of the Tang family. I'm really flattered." Tang Susu said sarcastically, "Bad situation? Could it be worse than before?"

She felt that Tang Qiming was a little ridiculous. There were always some people who spoke nicely, but in fact, they just wanted to profit from her.

Did she look like a saint or a fool? To let them take advantage of her again and again. She never liked the saying of repaying grievances with virtue, probably because she was not that kind of person.

Those who offended her would only be met with her revenge.

The disintegration of the Tang family was just a precursor, and she hadn't even begun yet.

Did Tang Qiming think too highly of her kindness? No, it should be said that he thought she was easy to bully. After all, she was so easily driven away by an outsider woman, and Tang Qi easily took her place.

They all felt that anyone could step on her.

That's why it was said that different people have different ways of thinking, which would really cause misunderstandings.

Not wanting those things was just because she didn't want to lose more than she gained. Tang Qi got more than her, how much more could she get?

She got those things, and in the end, she would have to pay the price for them.

In Tang Qi's heart, Tang Qiming was a good father who would satisfy whatever she wanted. But in Tang Susu's eyes, Tang Qiming was just a man who only cared about profit. He would only give a little bit of affection to anyone around him only when they were useful.

If she hadn't given up everything and left the Tang family, maybe at this time, she would have been sent to the Xue family and become the concubine of an old man. And she would have a son about her age.
