Chapter 769: Chapter 769

Zhang Yang was a bit stunned. "Auntie, do you know something?"

"No... that’s impossible, right?" Tang Tiantian was also feeling uncertain.

Zhang Yang stopped thinking further. "I’ll go outside to help, you just take care of the child."

After saying that, Zhang Yang headed to the kitchen. Mrs. Tang initially wanted to chase Zhang Yang out, but Mr. Tang interjected, "Haha, since that’s the case, you ladies go look after the child, and us men will cook."

Zhang Yang nodded with a smile. "Sure, Auntie."

Mrs. Tang chuckled. "Alright then, your uncle is the head chef; you just assist him."

After Mrs. Tang left, Zhang Yang got busy and started chatting with Mr. Tang.

Soon, the conversation drifted to Tang Tiantian’s marriage.

"Lin Fucheng was a scoundrel. Back then, I must have been blind to let my daughter marry him."

"Uncle, you don’t need to blame yourself. You can never truly know someone’s heart; Lin Fucheng just hid his true self too well. But he’s already gone, and the teacher is free now."

"Yes, free she is, but your teacher now fears marriage. She once said, if there ever came a day when she escaped from Lin Fucheng, she would never marry again. She doesn’t even want to have close interactions with men."

Zhang Yang was stunned. Did Mr. Tang really say something like that?

"Zhang Yang, being brought home by Tiantian means you’re special to her. Tell me the truth, how far along are you two?" Mr. Tang asked bluntly.

Meanwhile, Mrs. Tang asked Tang Tiantian the same question.

"Mom, what are you saying? There’s nothing between Zhang Yang and me..."

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Tang exposed Tang Tiantian’s lie outright. "You two were intimate at home just now, weren’t you? As your mother, I will say: I understand these things. I can tell you truly like Zhang Yang."

"Your dad and I are not inflexible people. After experiencing so much, as long as you love him and Zhang Yang doesn’t hurt you, we won’t interfere with your feelings anymore."

It turns out that Tang Tiantian and Lin Fucheng initially got together because of matchmaking by Mr. Tang and Mrs. Tang, which resulted in a disaster they still regret deeply.

"Mom, there’s no way Zhang Yang and I can be together."

"Why not? Just because he’s your student? But in fact, you’re not that far apart in age, right? If you claim there’s no possibility, why did you do that?"

"Mom, I can’t explain this right now. The relationship between Zhang Yang and me is complicated but very pure. I am not worthy."

On the other side, Zhang Yang awkwardly looked at Mr. Tang and said, "I’m willing to be with the teacher, but my situation is quite complicated, so..."

"So, you’re not planning to take responsibility for my daughter."

The atmosphere suddenly grew tense.

"Uncle, I know you’re angry, but I won’t lie to you. When it comes to the teacher, I am willing to protect her even at the cost of my life. As long as I am here, no one will bully her. That’s the responsibility I will uphold for her."

Mr. Tang furrowed his brow and finally sighed. "I have one simple request: don’t let my daughter feel heartbroken."

"You can leave now." Mr. Tang seemed reluctant to speak further with Zhang Yang.

Recognizing the moment, Zhang Yang promptly left.

After stepping out, Mrs. Tang entered the kitchen, and Tang Tiantian grabbed Zhang Yang, asking, "Did my dad say something to you?"

Zhang Yang nodded and recounted everything that had happened earlier.

Tang Tiantian didn’t get angry; instead, she comforted Zhang Yang, telling him not to dwell on it deeply. She assured him she would clarify things herself.

Still, Zhang Yang couldn’t figure out how to face Mr. and Mrs. Tang, so he quietly slipped away.

Although Tang Tiantian felt regretful, she didn’t stop him.

When Mr. Tang and Mrs. Tang came out and found that Zhang Yang had left, they felt a bit guilty.

After all, Zhang Yang had done so much for Tang Tiantian. They shouldn’t have asked those questions at this moment.

"Call him back to join us for dinner," Mr. Tang said.

Tang Tiantian shook her head. "Let it go, Dad. Zhang Yang is a good person, and I don’t want to burden him in any way. As for the matter between the two of us, the two of you shouldn’t interfere. No matter what, I won’t regret it."

Hearing Tang Tiantian say this left Mr. and Mrs. Tang with mixed feelings.

The family of three ultimately ate dinner in an awkward and somber mood.

As for Zhang Yang, after leaving Tang Tiantian’s home, he let out a long sigh.

Mr. Tang and Mrs. Tang were good parents. From their perspective, they hadn’t made any mistakes. To Zhang Yang, even if they had kicked him out, it would have been understandable.

He only hoped they wouldn’t make things difficult for the teacher.

"Hey, kid. Love trouble?"

A familiar voice rang out. Zhang Yang immediately looked up and saw Jiang Meiren smiling at him.

Xu Mengyan was also standing nearby.

Having already learned what Jiang Meiren and Xu Mengyan did for him, Zhang Yang felt grateful and approached them with a smile.

"Aren’t you my dear sister and sister-in-law?"

Jiang Meiren burst into laughter. "Dear sister and sister-in-law, better than your precious teacher, huh?"

"Of course. She’s the best, no question about it."

Jiang Meiren rolled her eyes. "Such a smooth talker. Get in the car—today, we’ve been waiting for ages for you to treat us to a meal."

Zhang Yang got into the car. "What do you want to eat? Today, I’ll treat you to anything."

For him, Jiang Meiren had shut down all her entertainment venues, losing billions in revenue.

Not to mention the cost of offending upper-level leadership.

A meal? Even if he were eaten alive, it wouldn’t make up for it.

"Is that what you said?" Jiang Meiren grinned; her mood seemed much better upon seeing Zhang Yang.

But Zhang Yang noticed that Xu Mengyan didn’t look too pleased.

"Sister-in-law, what’s wrong? Something troubling you? Or did my matters put you in a difficult spot?"

Xu Mengyan shook her head and forced a smile. "I’m fine. How about you? Did they give you a hard time inside?"

"Haha, I managed to handle it."

As soon as Zhang Yang said this, Jiang Meiren and Xu Mengyan’s faces instantly darkened.

"Did they lay a hand on you?" Xu Mengyan knew about some of the tactics inside, but she hadn’t expected that despite Guo Qiyu and Xu Guangzhi keeping an eye on things—and Jiang Meiren creating such overwhelming pressure—those bastards still dared to use disgraceful methods on Zhang Yang.

Jiang Meiren glanced at Xu Mengyan, and Xu Mengyan immediately called Guo Qiyu.

Soon, they obtained the video of Zhang Yang being mistreated.

After watching only a little of the footage, Jiang Meiren and Xu Mengyan couldn’t bear to continue.

"Those wretched scum—I won’t let them off." Jiang Meiren gritted her teeth and said angrily.

Zhang Yang waved his hand dismissively. "It’s fine. I’ve already taught them a lesson. Let’s not dwell on the past."

Xu Mengyan opened her mouth, seemingly making up her mind, and then gazed intensely at Zhang Yang.
