Tang Shuang bit her lip hard and stared straight at Tang Xue.
Tang Xue smiled proudly. "I've already read your notebook. Listen carefully. I want you to treat Jiang Ye's eyes according to the plan in the notebook. After you're cured, you'll still be Tang Shuang. And the person who married Jiang Ye has always been me. The person who cured his eyes is also me. Do you understand?"
Tang Shuang curled her fingers tightly, her nails digging into her skin. She wanted to reject Tang Xue's request, but…
"If you don't agree, I'll hand your notebook to Jiang Wei's people. At that time, no one will have a good time." Tang Xue smiled at Tang Shuang. "If Jiang Wei finds out that you want to secretly treat Jiang Ye's eyes, do you think he'll still let you stay by his side? I'm afraid you might not even be able to get out of here alive."
If Tang Shuang did not agree, Tang Xue would not let her treat Jiang Ye.
What she couldn't have, she would rather have it destroyed rather than giving it to other people.
"Of course. If you agree, I'll cover for you. When Jiang Ye's eyes are cured, I can even give you a sum of money. I advise you not to be ungrateful. Anyone with a brain knows what to choose now." Tang Xue smiled and looked at Tang Shuang leisurely.
After a long time, Tang Shuang took a deep breath and took out her phone to type—
'Sure. Give me back my notebook first.'
Tang Xue raised her eyebrows and smiled. She threw the notebook to Tang Shuang, then picked up the tray and said to Tang Shuang, "Alright, study it well. I'm going to have tea with Jiang Ye. Oh my god, what kind of lousy tea leaves are these? I'll bring some Longjing tea next time."
Tang Xue complained as she left the room. Looking at her back, Tang Shuang felt as if all her strength had been sucked out of her as she fell weakly to the floor.
In the courtyard, Jiang Ye sat in a chair. The breeze was refreshing. He took a deep breath and wondered why Tang Xue wasn't back yet. It had been almost twenty minutes.
Jiang Ye waited for another two minutes and was about to get up to look for Tang Xue when a hand suddenly pressed on his arm. Immediately, he smelled a faint perfume. The back tones of patchouli and mint were faintly discernible.
As Tang Xue liked perfume, Jiang Ye also seriously learned about various famous or niche perfume brands. He also knew the types of perfume like the back of his hand.
If he remembered correctly, the perfume was a small white bottle from Koss's "Gentle Encounters Series."
The production of the small white bottles had long stopped. One bottle was sold for nearly 100,000 yuan, and it could not be bought with money. Back then, he had specially asked an acquaintance in France to help him get a bottle. For this, he owed that friend a big favor.
Jiang Ye thought to himself, 'Did Tang Xue go to apply perfume just now? But she hasn't used perfume since she married me. Why did she suddenly want to apply perfume?'
Forget it. Girls are always fickle… Jiang Ye didn't think too much about it.
Tang Xue poured a cup of tea for Jiang Ye.
Then, Jiang Ye's finger touched the pink diamond on Tang Xue's nail. He was stunned.
Tang Xue took a sip of tea and looked up at Jiang Ye's handsome face. Her heart tingled.
How could a man be so handsome? No wonder that little b*tch Tang Shuang seemed to like Jiang Ye too…
Tang Xue thought about how Tang Shuang had been married for a few days and wondered if the two of them had slept together. At the thought of this, her face darkened. She wished she could lock Tang Shuang in the Tang family's basement and beat her to death.
She had completely forgotten that Tang Shuang had married Jiang Ye because of her.
At this moment, Tang Shuang was upstairs putting her notebook back into the drawer. She frowned when she thought of what Tang Xue had said to her.
Although it was a bad thing for Tang Xue to know that she was going to treat Jiang Ye's eyes, it was not without benefits. If Tang Xue could help her hide it from Jiang Wei's people, she might be able to heal Jiang Ye's eyes faster.
Tang Shuang walked out of the room and stood at the window at the corner of the corridor to look out. In the backyard, Jiang Ye and Tang Xue were sitting together. The scene in front of her was exactly the same as what she had seen in the Tang family all these years.
She thought that she had obtained happiness, but in the blink of an eye, this happiness no longer belonged to her.
As if sensing Tang Shuang's gaze, Tang Xue turned to look at her. A smug and disdainful smile appeared on her rosy red lips. Then, Tang Xue seemed to have thought of something. She suddenly pounced into Jiang Ye's arms in front of Tang Shuang and hooked her arms around his neck.
Tang Shuang turned pale and immediately turned around. Her heart was in so much pain that she almost suffocated.
