The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

Chapter 1717 - 1716: Complicated Relationships

"What's there to be ashamed of?"As long as Tang Rao comes to the Yang Family, what do past grievances matter?

"We have an esteemed guest today, so I won't stoop to your level."

The old Shu was so angry he was blowing his beard and glaring. Their nemesis for years, suddenly seemed like a stranger, at peace with each other, and the bitterness seemed to have evaporated into thin air.

"Ah, my hot temper, you might not know, I'm also visiting family. Tang Rao is my friend, he invited me to come here with you. My son and I plan to stay over for a couple of days. The Yang Family business is so big, it surely won't disappoint us, right?"

Yang Wei wasn't happy? Wasn't very tolerant, so the old Shu specifically came to make things difficult, ensuring Yang Wei wouldn't be happy.

"You're staying here too?"

Sure enough, Yang Wei thought the old Shu was just dropping Tang Rao off and would leave immediately afterward, not realizing he had no intention of leaving.

"Of course, I'm staying here. Tang Rao is our Shu Family's most honored guest. We've been hosting Tang Rao for so many days and have built a deep friendship. If Tang Rao were to leave, we'd surely miss him, so here we are, sticking by his side."

The old Shu's mouth was crafty, turning black into white, framing disruption as an inability to part with Tang Rao, the esteemed guest.

Esteemed or not, it didn't matter to him. As long as the objective was achieved, the old man's heart was sweetened.

"Enough, our families haven't interacted for so long. This time, I won't argue with you. When our most honored guest leaves, I'll properly settle our old scores."

Yang Wei was not someone who easily suffered losses, he knew the old Shu's intentions very well.

"Since you say Tang Rao is your most honored guest, then I hope you keep your word, don't let your Yang Family's troublesome people upset the honored guest. Who doesn't know about your family's troubles, one more problematic than the next!"

Those were the Yang Family's scandals, even if the entire East Island knew, in front of the most honored guest, the old Shu should at least keep a secret. Speaking so openly, once Tang Rao knows, where would Yang Wei's face go?

"Don't hit a man in the face, don't expose his faults. Old Shu, you're really not being considerate. I've finally understood you."

Yang Wei gritted his teeth in hatred for the old Shu, but because there were so many people present, he forced himself to hold back and didn't clash with the old Shu on the spot.

These people, the older they get, the less considerate they are. Besides getting older, their character becomes more childlike.

"Glad you've understood me, it's all for our most honored guest's sake. When at our home, Tang Rao ate well, slept well, and was happy. If he comes to your home and not only fails to see the beauties Yang Zhi promised but ends up angry, then he'd really have no way to express his grievances."

Yes, Yang Wei admitted, the Yang Family indeed has many such hidden scandals. But he had instructed them clearly, no matter how big the internal conflicts, they must not explode during Tang Rao's stay as a guest, otherwise, they would face the highest level punishment from the Yang Family.

"Rest assured, those things you mentioned will definitely not happen, I guarantee!"

Yang Wei couldn't tolerate being doubted. To avoid seeing the infuriating expressions, he actually humbled himself to old Shu.

"That was your promise. You said after our most honored guest arrives at your home, you wouldn't disrupt his normal life, wouldn't let him suffer grievances. It's best if you keep your word."

The old Shu wasn't worried about Yang Wei promising and not delivering. In the time that followed, even if he didn't deliver, it didn't matter. Anyway, he would be at the Yang family every day, and if there was anything displeasing, he would certainly talk to Yang Wei about it.

With the old Shu's advice, Tang Rao's first day at the Yang family was enjoyed as if he were an emperor. Everything he needed was readily available. The beauties Yang Zhi promised were indeed attractive to Tang Rao.

The women that could attract Tang Rao were either outstanding in appearance or possessed certain talents.

"Brother, coming to the Yang family was really worth it. They have everything, even enough beauties. Check out their hands, their movements and expressions, filled with endless allure."

Shu Yi smacked his lips, his salivary glands particularly active.

"Stop fantasizing, they're just here to give you a massage, and you can't do anything. The feeling of seeing but not touching must be uncomfortable, right?"

"You're not uncomfortable? You're not uncomfortable, then where did all that drool come from, please explain?"

Tang Rao initially wanted to tease Shu Yi, but unexpectedly, Shu Yi mocked Tang Rao, leaving Tang Rao nearly speechless.

Young ladies are attractive, and gentlemen pursue them; he originally came to the Yang Family for the beauties. Now that he saw them, why not admire them?

"Looking at them won't cost me anything. Besides, they're beloved by the Yang Family for their looks, which lets them continue being cherished. If they weren't attractive, what value would they have?"

Tang Rao's reasoning was sound, and since his points were valid, Shu Yi took a few more looks, then found a beauty to chat with. As she told him a story, Shu Yi tried to find a chance to touch the beauty's small hand...

"Shu Yi, I heard from the old man that the Yang family is messy. What do you mean by messy? I feel like I don't quite understand."

Shu Yi had mentioned the Yang family was messy, and the old Shu had too. Oddly, while saying this in front of the Yang Family, no one disputed them.

They strangely acknowledged this fact.

"The scandals within the Yang family aren't a secret. Asking around casually, you could write a book from what you hear. Let me tell you, from bloodline to relationships, the aspects are breathtakingly complex. The main and side branches marry, side branches feud with the main ones, yet both live together. Over time, more people are born, and relationships grow increasingly complex. Just imagine what the Yang family might end up looking like?"

Close relative marriages? And conflicts too?

Just these two things were enough to make Tang Rao's jaw drop and visualize many scenarios.

"Interesting, even TV dramas wouldn't dare portray this. The Yang family's current status isn't without reason. They probably rose to fame through these negative stories, right?"
