Chapter 724: Chapter 724 Complains

The two of them were like newfound confidants, texting each other to complain about Tang Yuchan, who was still unaware that just by rejecting a call, she had become the talk of the town between two people. Only after Shen Dong finished venting did he feel slightly better about the situation, thinking to himself that an officer can be killed but not insulted. If the other party was insulting him in this manner, it was absolutely unacceptable.

Just as he was about to let the matter go, he saw that Zhang Tao had shoved the phone into his hands, as if he didn’t want to answer the call but also couldn’t just hang up. Shen Dong looked at him, puzzled. Zhang Tao felt he couldn’t keep talking about it, fearing he might be verbally abused by the other’s violent behavior if he spoke directly.

Zhang Tao also felt he couldn’t accept this side of Tang Yuchan, so he decided not to face it for now, pretending to be oblivious. He even made a praying gesture with his hands, hoping the other would help him out with this situation first. Shen Dong looked at the phone and almost wanted to cry; in the end, it seemed he would have to take the call.

But it was perhaps for the best to ask why Tang Yuchan had blacklisted his number. It was a very serious matter. After picking up the call, he heard Tang Yuchan’s impatient click of her tongue and heard her starting the conversation:

"Why have you stopped talking? Weren’t you the one continuously calling me just now? Now that I’ve answered, do you have anything to say? Let me tell you not to provoke me, I’m really irritated right now. I could even smash a brick with my bare hands, so I advise you not to say anything I don’t like to hear."

After Tang Yuchan’s warning, the voice on the other end turned very cold as the person spoke, "Oh really, you’ve become skilled now, learning to hang up and blacklist my calls. If I hadn’t used someone else’s phone, I wouldn’t have even noticed. Don’t you think you owe me an explanation? What exactly is going on here?

Or is it that you really didn’t want to hear from me, so you blacklisted my number? If you don’t want to listen, then the next time you ask for leave, I might also decide not to listen. Since you’ve made up your mind, I can’t keep talking about this. I would be wasting your time, right? Go rest. Once you’ve rested enough, we can talk properly. I’m hanging up now."

Shen Dong said these cold words, and the person on the other end panicked, as did Zhang Tao. Zhang Tao hadn’t expected Shen Dong to speak like this. If Tang Yuchan found out that the call was actually made by him, he was done for. She would surely settle the score with him afterwards.

As if things weren’t bad enough already, with this additional issue, it felt like he had been thrust into hell with no chance of resurrection. Why was his luck so miserable? Zhang Tao felt like his life was wasted. Not only did he fail to win over the beauty, but he also got wrapped up in this mess. Finished! While praying Shen Dong wouldn’t hang up, he hoped they could communicate more thoroughly.

Tang Yuchan was also in a panic now, realizing this situation wouldn’t end so easily. She quickly attempted to rectify things, "No, boss, listen to me, it’s all a misunderstanding. I didn’t mean to hang up on you or to blacklist your number intentionally. I just thought it was unlikely for you to call me so frequently.

It must be someone stole your phone or something, and I was in a really bad mood at the time because of certain events. You’re not here now; when you return, I’ll explain everything to you. No, wait, where are you now and who are you with? This can’t be your number; I’ve just checked, and it’s an unknown number."

Only then did Tang Yuchan realize, and after comparing the number with her contacts, she wondered if this could be that scumbag’s number. Great, that scumbag dared to call her with this number, causing her to get scolded by the boss. It was truly hateful. She spat out in disgust:

"Are you speaking up for that man? If you’re going to be like that, I’ll be angry. Don’t you know how outrageous that man is? He already has a girlfriend and still dares to add me and harass me. I detest such men the most. I’ll beat him up every time I see him.

It’d be best if you stayed away from that man, boss, or else I’ll just have to mention this to Kang Yue. If she learns that you’re often hanging out with some bad guy, she definitely won’t let you off."

Tang Yuchan was fuming as she said this, spitting contemptuously as if the man on the line was guilty of some great evil to deserve such treatment. Her voice was so loud that the person on the other end of the phone could hear everything, and Shen Dong originally wanted to make sarcastic remarks, but he felt a twang of sympathy for Zhang Tao when he heard Tang Yuchan continuously spitting and cursing this ’scumbag’.

It seemed Zhang Tao was about to be misunderstood. How funny was it that he didn’t clarify things right from the start? After getting a girlfriend, one should know that, generally speaking, one should not joke around with girls or deceive them lightly.

That’s a dire consequence right there. Look at him now, unable to even make his lies sound plausible. No matter what he says, it’s wrong, and the other person probably won’t believe him. So pathetic, really.

Zhang Tao, hearing those curses, felt so ashamed he hung his head low, unable to face it all. Why was his situation so dire? A misunderstanding was bad enough, but now he was being cursed at so harshly, and Shen Dong wasn’t speaking up for him, even though he knew the truth.

Zhang Tao glanced at Shen Dong, pleading with his eyes for him to put in a good word. But then, the phone was abruptly hung up. He didn’t even get a chance to explain. Shen Dong was also stunned, alright, he hadn’t managed to speak in time. If Zhang Tao said something careless to Kang Yue, wouldn’t that spell disaster? No, he had to sweet-talk his girlfriend first.

He couldn’t concern himself with that guy’s problems; they were his to fix. So, he handed the phone back to Zhang Tao and patted him on the shoulder, saying:

"It’s alright, this is just a small matter. Trust me, it’ll get sorted out quickly. Go eat something and get rid of your worries. Just focus on being happy. Everything else will become much simpler. If you need to explain, you’ll need to be calm. Think about what you’re going to say; don’t be like a headless fly."
