Scumbag

In his early years, Tang Tian was an apprentice in the medical center. However, his medical skills were not good. Her grandfather had once said that he had evil intentions and had too many distracting thoughts. He could not learn Chinese medicine well.

Although Tang Tian's medical skills were not good, he was very good at seducing women. During his apprenticeship, he got involved with Tang Shuang's mother, Gu Rou. Gu Rou was head over heels for him.

Back then - after the two of them fell in love - Gu Rou's father, Gu Qing, heavily opposed to their relationship. He had no choice but to give them his blessings when he saw that Gu Rou was determined to marry Tang Tian. He also made Tang Tian the Gu family's live-in son-in-law.

Gu Qing had said that if Tang Tian could treat Gu Rou and Tang Shuang well, he would hand over the medical center to Tang Tian after his death.

Unexpectedly, when Tang Shuang was eight, a woman called Jiang Hong came to her house and said that Gu Rou was a mistress who had stolen her man.

Only then did everyone know that Tang Tian had a childhood sweetheart and even had a daughter with her. That girl was only two months older than Tang Shuang.

After knowing this, Gu Qing got so angry that he was hospitalized for cerebral hemorrhage. Not long after, he passed away. After Gu Qing left, Tang Shuang's grandmother, Ye Mei, was grief-stricken and soon passed away as well.

The death of her parents left a huge impact on Gu Rou. She knew that she was partly at fault for her parents' death. In the end, it was all because she was too stupid that she was deceived by a scumbag for so long.

Later, Jiang Hong threatened Gu Rou. If Gu Rou did not agree to give the Jiu Ren Hall to Tang Tian, she would tell everyone that - Gu Rou - the tenth generation successor of the Jiu Ren Hall was a mistress who had snatched someone else's man. If that happened, the reputation of the Jiu Ren Hall would be ruined!

Gu Rou had no choice but to hand the Jiu Ren Hall over to Tang Tian.

Gu Rou's health was not good to begin with. After these incidents, she coughed up blood all day long and her health took a turn for the worse. She died before she was 30 years old.

Tang Tian and Jiang Hong had worked together to obtain the Jiu Ren Hall and earned a large sum of money through its reputation. Overnight, they became a wealthy family in Hai City. However, Tang Tian had never found out where the Gu family's medical books were.

He had asked Gu Rou, but she insisted that she did not have any medical books.

After Gu Rou died, Tang Tian suspected that Tang Shuang had the medical books, so he brought Tang Shuang home and coaxed her to tell him the whereabouts of the medical books.

Tang Tian did not believe that such important things would disappear with the death of Gu Qing's family!

The taxi arrived. Tang Shuang ignored Tang Tian and reached out to stop the taxi. As soon as she got into the taxi, Tang Tian squeezed in and revealed a sketchy and fake smile. "I haven't visited you since you got married. Let's go. Dad will send you back."

When they arrived at the entrance of the old villa, Tang Tian got out of the car. When he saw the dilapidated villa, he couldn't help but think to himself, 'Fortunately, it wasn't Tang Xue who married him. How could his precious daughter suffer like this? Jiang Ye is indeed useless. To think that I thought so highly of him in the past. What a disappointment!'

Tang Tian thought of how he had fawned over Jiang Ye in the past and was instantly furious. He felt like he had made a loss after his investment had failed.

Although it was not Tang Xue who married Jiang Ye, he still lost a young daughter.

He did not have any fatherly love for Tang Shuang, but Tang Shuang was very beautiful after all. If he married Tang Shuang to a rich man in the future, he would be able to collect a lot of betrothal money! If it was a rich old man in his sixties or a rich widower whose wife had died, he could get even more betrothal money.

What a shame…

Tang Tian couldn't help but look sad. He patted Tang Shuang's shoulder, and tears even flickered in his eyes. "Shuang'er, I'm sorry that I couldn't find you a good man."

Tang Shuang knew how hypocritical Tang Tian was, so she was naturally not moved by his words and crocodile tears.

She thought to herself: The only good thing you've ever done for me is to let me marry Jiang Ye.

They entered the house and Jiang Ye happened to be sitting in the living room listening to the news. He heard Tang Shuang's footsteps and another person's footsteps beside her

"Jiang Ye, why are you living in such a place now? Did I let Shuang'er— Xue'er marry you to make her live like this?" Tang Tian used to be so ingratiating in front of Jiang Ye, but now he was so arrogant that even his beer belly was bulging.

Tang Shuang rolled her eyes and walked over to hold Jiang Ye's arm.

Jiang Ye was very polite to Tang Xue's father. "Father-in-law, don't worry. I won't let Xue'er suffer with me forever. I love Xue'er as much as you do. I can't bear to let Xue'er suffer."

"Hmph, you're still bragging when you're already like this." Tang Tian looked at Jiang Ye with disdain.
