Chapter 32: Almost a Mistress
Zhao Xiaofeng’s mouth hung open wide in shock.
Tang Yu had given her too much information to absorb. She did not know where to begin.
“So, is your father okay now?”
Tang Yu shook her head. “I don’t know either. Miles has hidden him somewhere safe, but I believe Miles will do his best to save my father.”
Zhao Xiaofeng’s face was filled with guilt. “I’m sorry. Something so big happened to you, and I couldn’t help at all. 20,000 compared to 1,000,000 is like a drop in a well.”
Tang Yu comforted her. “It doesn’t matter. In fact, you encouraged me and gave me hope. If it weren’t for you, I would have been isolated, without a single friend in this world!”
Zhao Xiaofeng recalled the time when her family’s incident had happened.
She was completely cut off from her financial resources, and had to work part-time to support herself and afford her tuition fees.
At that time, she held a strong sense of independence, refusing any financial aid from Tang Yu.
However, Tang Yu would always bring her home for meals. In the end, Zhao Xiaofeng could not refuse her. She even stayed in Tang Yu’s attic for more than a year.
She did not move out until she entered college.
Therefore, Tang Yu’s kindness toward her had always stayed in her heart.
She had felt extremely guilty for not being able to help Tang Yu in her time of need.
Zhao Xiaofeng adjusted her state of mind. “But it’s a good thing that you met your husband! You’re amazing. You actually got married! You were both strangers to begin with and you got married just like that? How dare you?
“But I also understand your feelings. You were trapped with no way out. Miles was more like a star in the night for you. He saved you!
“How far have the two of you progressed? Do you really plan on spending the rest of your life with him?
“What about Song Huating? Do you not like him anymore?”
Tang Yu’s heart pounded violently.
Song Huating.
To be honest, she had not thought about him for the past few days.
Perhaps it was because too many things had happened, or perhaps it was because she had made up her mind to let go of him.
“I don’t think we are fated to be together. Moreover, Miles has been so good to me. I will not do anything that will let him down. I’ll get along and develop a relationship with him.”
Seeing Tang Yu’s determined expression, Zhao Xiaofeng could only sigh regretfully in her heart.
She had always felt that Tang Yu and Song Huating were really a good match.
They were a perfect match. They were both Chinese, and their thoughts as well as cultural traditions were aligned.
“Then, is your husband good to you?”
Tang Yu nodded. “Of course! Miles is a very gentle and kind person. I’ll introduce you to him when I have the chance.”
If Adam and Adela had known of what Tang Yu had said, they would definitely have laughed their heads off!
Kind? Gentle?
These two words did not suit Miles at all!
“If your father recovers and you return the million yuan back to your husband, will he let you leave? Will you continue to pursue a relationship with Song Huating?”
Tang Yu was stunned when she heard that.
She had never thought of it that way.
“How could I do something like burning the bridge after crossing the river?
“Xiao Feng, I’m very sure that I won’t have any chance with Song Huating.
“You don’t know this, but he has recently returned to China. I heard that something happened to his fiancée’s family, and that was why he disappeared without a trace!”
Tang Yu was still furious at that very thought.
Her relationship with Song Huating had been ambiguous. Although they had not even held hands, they only needed that one step to bring their relationship to the next level.
She was very sure that he also had feelings for her.
She had only just realized that the only reason why they did not have a relationship was because she did not have the qualifications.
Song Huating had almost made her his mistress.
