Chapter 78: Me, Successor of Socialism 10

When Yan Chen arrived, this was the scene that greeted him.

He knew his family was messed up, but he didn't expect Shen Weiyang's to be as well. And judging from her cold, almost indifferent attitude, they were practically birds of a feather. No, it was more like a shared scent of being the same kind.

A strange feeling welled up in his heart, ultimately transforming into excitement.

Meanwhile, Su Tang was impatiently dealing with Ms. Fang when the system notification sounded.

"Ding, Blackening Value decreased by 10%, current Blackening Index: 65%."

Su Tang went silent.

Fang Yan, however, continued chattering, "Your brother's coming-of-age ceremony is next month. I've chosen a few outfits for you. Come back and try them on. And don't embarrass the Xu family. I heard you're dating someone at school."

Su Tang scoffed, "Your information network is quite impressive."

Fang Yan frowned at her attitude again. "Let me warn you, those good-for-nothing boys…"

Before she could finish, Su Tang interrupted, "Did the person who told you that also mention that I was dating the young master of the Yan family?" She spoke slowly, watching Fang Yan's expression change from surprise to near ecstasy before continuing, "Oh, but it's a shame we broke up. After all, I have to listen to Ms. Fang. How can I just date anyone? Those boys out there are all so unreliable."

She threw Fang Yan's own words back at her, making her face turn green with anger. Without thinking, Fang Yan raised her hand and slapped Su Tang across the face. "How dare you speak to your elders like that?!"

Su Tang licked her lips and smiled. This body was only seventeen years old, still a few months shy of adulthood. As for her guardian, she would remember this slap.

"Does Ms. Fang need anything else?"

Fang Yan glared at her indifferent daughter, wanting to slap her again. In the end, Xu Xizhi arrived and stopped her.

"Aunt Fang." His voice was gentle, but his tone brooked no argument.

Fang Yan hadn't expected to be seen by him and forced an awkward smile. "Xizhi, you're here too."

Xu Xizhi stood in front of Su Tang, a smile on his face but his voice flat. "It's getting late, Aunt Fang. You should head home."

Fang Yan didn't dare to act tough in front of her stepson and gave a fake smile. "Yes, it is quite late. I should be going." Then, she turned to Su Tang with a veneer of motherly concern. "Yanyang, Mommy was just angry earlier. Don't be mad at me. Mommy just wants what's best for you. Be good at school, and if you need anything, just talk to your brother."

Su Tang listened to her without a word or even a change in expression, remaining silent until she left.

Xu Xizhi sighed apologetically. "I'm sorry."

He was the one who had revealed her whereabouts. He had thought that the woman wouldn't do anything too outrageous at school, but who knew she could be so stupid? Xu Xizhi looked down on Fang Yan and didn't think much of the stepsister she brought along. That was until he discovered that Su Tang had insisted on moving into the dormitory, drawing a clear line between them, and hadn't even touched a penny of the Xu family's money, relying solely on her scholarship. Xu Xizhi admired that a young girl could be so strong-willed, and because of this, he was willing to look out for her.

Su Tang didn't have much to say to Xu Xizhi. After all, it was Fang Yan's fault in the end. However, she was too lazy to explain and simply nodded, accepting his apology.

Xu Xizhi, however, clearly wasn't going to leave it at that. He took out a card.

Su Tang stared at him in astonishment, then laughed. "Is Student Xu taking pity on me?"

She might have said it like that, but there was no self-pity in her eyes, only amusement.

Xu Xizhi suddenly found her adorable. He didn't understand why she had hidden her light before. She was clearly a radiant girl. "No, didn't Aunt Fang say? It's my coming-of-age ceremony next month. I'm afraid you won't like the dress she chose. Consider this money for you to buy your own dress. After all, if it weren't for me, she wouldn't have come looking for you."

Xu Xizhi, with his personality, would be the perfect second male lead in a novel. Gentle, kind, and considerate of your feelings. Someone with less willpower might even fall for him.

"Alright." Su Tang took the card. "Is there anything else, Student Xu?"

She kicked him out right after taking the card without any hesitation. Xu Xizhi was so angry he laughed. However, he understood her somewhat. After being at A High for so long, she never caused trouble and even kept to herself, making her seem like an outsider. But this was indeed a way to protect herself, except for the time she agreed to help Yan Chen.

"Nothing else. I'll be going then. Oh right, I'll say it again, if you encounter any trouble, you can come to me." After saying that, he ruffled her hair and left.

Su Tang was caught off guard by the head pat and didn't dodge in time. In the end, she couldn't help but laugh.

The card Xu Xizhi gave her wasn't some cool black card. Su Tang wasn't interested in the money in the card for the time being. But as she turned around, she saw Yan Chen standing in front of her. She didn't know how long he had been standing there listening.

Yan Chen beckoned her. "Come here."

Su Tang hesitated for a moment, and seeing her hesitation, he walked towards her himself.

He didn't say a word, but reached out and took the card from her hand. Then, he snapped it in half with swift and decisive movements.

"I'll teach her a lesson for you."

Su Tang tilted her head slightly, completely confused.

Then, she saw him take out his phone and make a video call. She didn't know how long it took, but a car accident appeared on the screen.

Su Tang: "…"

She took back her words about the school heartthrob not being scary at all. Yan Chen actually had someone cause a car crash to harm Fang Yan!

"Are you crazy?"

Yan Chen's eyes were deep and dark as he looked at her, as if he wanted to carve her into his very being. "She hit you."

Su Tang rubbed her forehead. A woman like Fang Yan couldn't even lift a finger, let alone cause any real pain with her slap. Of course, she had to remember this grudge and settle it slowly after she became an adult. Who knew that Yan Chen would pull such a stunt?

In the end, she sighed helplessly. "Thank you."

Yan Chen's eyes lit up, and his breathing quickened. He knew they were the same. If it were anyone else, they would have been scared silly.

Su Tang's expression remained unchanged, but she carefully considered her next words, afraid of hitting another one of his blackening points. "But your methods are a bit extreme. We can try another way next time. And, you can ask me first, okay?"

She used the word "we."

Yan Chen's dark eyes lit up even more. "Okay."

He didn't say much, but in the next second, he forcefully shoved a card into her hand.

Su Tang's lips twitched when she saw it. Well, she had just complained about the black card, and now she had one.

"Can I not accept this?"

Yan Chen frowned. "Why? You clearly accepted Xu Xizhi's card just now. Or are the rumors true? Do you like him?" His voice gradually turned cold. He thought about the head pat from earlier, and his entire being was filled with a dense, dark aura.

"Ding, Blackening Value increased by 10%, current Blackening Index: 75%."
