I Don’t Want To Be A Villain - Chapter 5
As soon as Tang Yu finished speaking, all eyes fell on Tang Mingxi.
There was ridicule and mockery in their eyes, but they were all very subtle.
It could be seen that Tang Mingxi character was indeed not liked by the Tang family. However, due to his identity as the “Second Young Master of the Tang Family” even if the Tang family did not like him, they still had to welcome him with a smile.
The only one who dared to challenge Tang Mingxi was Tang Yu. His biological father was Tang Youwei, who was currently fighting with Tang Mingxi’s elder brother, Tang Yun for the inheritance.
One stone stirred up a thousand waves. The table of relatives also showed some dissatisfaction with Ye Heng’s arrival.
“Second Young Master, Xiao Yu’s words are not completely unreasonable. As an outsider, it is indeed inappropriate for Ye Heng to eat at the same table as us.”
“Didn’t Second Young Master always dislike Ye Heng? Why did he change his mind now? ”
“What can he do if he doesn’t like him? The Old Master personally arranged the marriage. Even if he is a man, he has to grit his teeth and marry. ”
After saying this, there was a burst of malicious laughter from the table.
In the original novel, Tang Mingxi was a person who cared a lot about his face. Marrying a man was simply the most humiliating thing in his life.
If it was in the past, Tang Mingxi would have ignored these taunts and attack Ye Heng in front of everyone.
A scolding was light. According to the original owner’s temper, he would most likely kick him.
Ye Heng was already prepared for Tang Mingxi’s attack. To be precise, he had already guessed the outcome when he walked into this evil banquet hall.
However, after this round of taunts, Ye Heng did not see Tang Mingxi fly into a rage.
He glanced sideways. Tang Mingxi’s expression was unclear. He had a faint smile and could not tell if he was angry or not.
Ye Heng calmly tugged at the corner of his mouth and said coldly, “This trash is quite good at enduring.”
Tang Yu smirked and smiled proudly. He raised his head and said to Ye Heng, “Did you hear that? Get lost!”
After speaking, he looked at Tang Mingxi like a victorious rooster. “Tang Er, your husband doesn’t care about dignity. Cousin will help you teach him a lesson. You won’t be angry, right?”
Tang Yu was not teaching Ye Heng a lesson. He was clearly using teaching Ye Heng a lesson to humiliate him.
No matter what, Tang Mingxi and Ye Heng were husband and wife on the surface. They were a family.
If Ye Heng was humiliated in front of everyone he would also be disgraced.
In Tang Mingxi’s previous life, he had been in the business circle and was almost an expert. How could he not see Tang Yu’s display of strength?
This cannon fodder was really courting death.
Tang Mingxi sighed inwardly, but he maintained his persona and said with a smile, “Cousin is right. I didn’t think this through.”
Ye Heng’s fingers curled up slightly as he lowered his eyelids.
Tang Yu also looked as if he had expected this and generously said, “Forget it.”
He suddenly paused and saw Ye Heng’s suit. Clearly, he was still angry, so he said harshly, “I’ll give Tang Er some face, but I can’t let your husband off. How about this, get Ye Heng to apologize to me. It just so happens that my shoes are all wet from walking all the way here. As an elder, how about I get Ye Heng to bring me a basin of water and help me wash my feet? ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Heng’s gaze also landed on Tang Mingxi’s face.
Tang Mingxi didn’t speak for a long time. Ye Heng silently confronted him. The youth’s self-esteem was like an indomitable backbone that supported the heavens and the earth, stubbornly holding on.
The air seemed to have frozen. Tang Yu’s vicious gaze shifted between Tang Mingxi and Ye Heng. He squeezed out a sentence, “What? Tang Er, you can’t bear to? ”
“How could that be?” Tang Mingxi relented and called the waiter over. He said casually, “Go and prepare a basin of water for Mr. Ye.”
Under the fluorescent lights, his skin was close to porcelain white. It was covered in a layer of warm light and emitted a warm feeling.
But looking at his face, it could be said to be stunning. It was completely impossible to tell that he was a scumbag with rotten inner thoughts.
The private residence was fully equipped and the water that Tang Yu wanted to wash his feet was quickly delivered.
Tang Yu was extremely excited. He sat up straight and his entire body was energized.
When he thought that Second Young Master’s husband was going to wash his feet, his despicable vanity swelled up.
Seeing that Ye Heng didn’t move, Tang Yu frowned. “What’s going on? Ye Heng, why aren’t you bringing the water over?”
Ye Heng didn’t move at all, but his cold expression betrayed him.
It was just that he had been humiliated so many times that the youth could already endure himself very well.
At this time, Tang Mingxi suddenly said, “Wait.”
Ye Heng looked at him. Tang Mingxi sighed and took the basin of water. He said sincerely, “Cousin, I thought about it and felt that Ye Heng isn’t worthy of apologizing to you. It’s more appropriate for me to apologize to you personally and also show my sincerity. ”
Ye Heng was stunned and looked at Tang Mingxi in astonishment.
The moment he said this, the entire hall was in an uproar. Second Young Master was bringing water to wash his feet?!
Not to mention Tang Yu, even the Tang Family members who were watching the show gasped.
Tang Yu was also stunned. He was a bit caught between a rock and a hard place.
Ye Heng was just a useless son-in-law. It was easy to humiliate him.
But Tang Mingxi was the true Second Young Master of the Tang Family. He grew up in a golden branch and was spoiled by his elder brother, Tang Yun, to the point that he was lawless. He was tyrannical and did whatever he wanted.
But words that were said were like water that was spilled.
Tang Yu couldn’t take back his words. Since Tang Mingxi took the initiative to wash his feet, then he should enjoy it!
Moreover, Tang Mingxi’s appearance was extremely good. His skin was snow-white, and small green veins could be seen. His ten slender fingers were as lustrous as jade, and his fingertips were round and white. He looked better than a top hand model.
To wash his feet with such a pair of hands… Tang Yu couldn’t help but become restless.
Just as his imagination was running wild, an unforeseen event occurred.
Tang Mingxi held the water and splashed it all over Tang Yu’s head.
“Splash —”
It came down menacingly and poured down on his head.
The loud sound of water made everyone on the scene dumbfounded.
Tang Yu, who had taken off his shoes and was waiting for someone to serve him, was dumbfounded.
After Tang Mingxi finished splashing the water, he threw the wooden bucket on the ground.
“Plop, plop, plop.” It rolled three times and landed in front of Tang Yu.
Ye Heng stared at Tang Mingxi with a hint of surprise and inquiry in his eyes.
Tang Mingxi smiled slightly like a little fox that had succeeded. He looked very innocent. “Cousin, I think washing your feet can’t express my sincere apology. How about I give you a bath?”
In front of him, Tang Yu was in a sorry state. His hairstyle, which he had spent thousands of dollars on, was drenched by the water. His hair was stuck to his scalp, and small streams of water dripped down from the top of his head along his cheeks. His suit was soaked, and he looked as if he had been scooped up from the water.
He was still barefoot and extremely embarrassed. Tang Yu’s anger ignited in an instant. He glared at him. “Tang Mingxi!
You’re courting death! ”
“Calm down, cousin.” Tang Mingxi clapped his hands and sat on the stool with his long legs crossed. He said casually, “Has anyone taught you that you have to look at the owner before hitting a dog?”
When these words fell into Ye Heng’s ears, it was extremely ironic.
It turned out that he only thought of him as a dog.
The young man stood beside Tang Mingxi. He was gloomy, and his young body was tall and handsome.
He indeed looked like an unruly and ferocious wolf dog by the second young master’s side.
“You!” Tang Yu slammed the table and stood up. Just as he was about to make trouble, the door opened.
“What’s the commotion?” The current head of the Tang family, Tang Yun, appeared late.
Immediately, everyone in the Tang family stood up and stood respectfully. Even Tang Yu swallowed the curses he wanted to say. Only Tang Mingxi remained seated “arrogantly” and did not move an inch.
It was not that Tang Mingxi did not move, but that he could not move.
In the original novel, Second Young Master Tang was arrogant and domineering. He was the only ruthless character who dared to act coquettishly in front of Tang Yun.
It would be a problem if Tang Mingxi stood up to welcome his eldest brother!
Tang Yu’s expression was ugly. He gritted his teeth and said, “Eldest Young Master.”
Tang Yun lifted his eyelids and saw Tang Yu drenched and barefoot on the ground. He was in a sorry state like a beggar under a bridge.
His younger brother, Tang Mingxi, was sitting leisurely on the stool. Tang Yun’s eyelids twitched.
“What’s going on?”
“I was joking with Cousin.” Tang Mingxi blinked. “Brother, you won’t blame me, right?”
“You call this a joke?!” Tang Yu was like a grasshopper whose hair stood on end. He almost jumped three feet high. He gritted his teeth and said fiercely, “Eldest Young Master, today is the annual meeting. There are so many people watching. No matter how much you favor Second Young Master, you have to give me an explanation for my father’s sake, right?”
Tang Yun frowned slightly. “What’s going on?”
Tang Mingxi said, “Cousin felt that it was embarrassing for Ye Heng to sit with him, so he asked Ye Heng to wash his feet as an apology. I felt that it was not sincere enough, so I decided to give him a bath. Who knew that he couldn’t take a joke and flew into a rage. ”
He paused and said with lingering fear, “So scary.”
Tang Yu was speechless.
Tang Yun said to Tang Yu, “You asked Ye Heng to bring you water to wash your feet?”
Tang Yu’s mouth twitched. This live-in son-in-law was indeed not presentable. No one looked up to him.
However, he was still Tang Yun’s brother-in-law. It was one thing for him to tacitly agree to the humiliation, but it was another thing for Tang Yun to see it happen.
“I… was just joking with brother-in-law.” Tang Yu was resentful and had to suppress his anger.
Tang Yun said, “Since it’s a joke, don’t make it so embarrassing. Hurry up and change your clothes so you don’t catch a cold.”
Tang Yu gritted his teeth. His eyes turned and landed on Ye Heng’s expensive suit. A plan formed in his mind.
“Eldest Young Master, jokes are jokes. I’m now completely drenched by Second Young Master. You have to get Second Young Master to compensate me with clothes to wear.”
Tang Yun said, “There are clothes prepared in the residence. I’ll send someone to get them for you.”
“Wait, Eldest Young Master. How much are the clothes in the residence worth?” Tang Yu chuckled. “My suit is custom-made. You have to compensate me with something of the same price, right? I think Ye Heng’s suit is not bad. Why don’t you take it off and let me wear it? ”
Tang Mingxi was stunned. A strange expression appeared on his face. “You really want to wear it?”
When Tang Yu saw this, he thought he had hit Tang Mingxi’s sore spot. He immediately became proud. “Nonsense! Second Young Master, you dare to do it but don’t dare to admit it. Are you trying to act shamelessly in front of your brother? ”
The strange expression on Tang Mingxi’s face became even more obvious. He even exchanged glances with Ye Heng.
However, both of them saw the unreserved disgust in each other’s eyes.
But what was rare was that Ye Heng actually didn’t reject this unreasonable request. The youth’s handsome face didn’t reveal any expression as he calmly took off his suit jacket. He even coldly asked, “Do you want pants?”
Tang Yu was speechless.
You have no shame about taking your trousers off in public, but I do!
He suddenly grabbed Ye Heng’s suit jacket. The material was excellent. He was instantly overjoyed and could not wait to put it on.
This action caused the entire banquet hall to burst into uncontrollable laughter.
Tang Yu paused. He raised his head and saw the faint smile on Tang Mingxi’s face. Tang Mingxi’s eyes were slightly curved, hiding a natural charm as he stared at him indifferently.
Even Ye Heng’s expression relaxed a lot. There was a hint of mockery and ridicule in his eyes.
Tang Yu panicked. He suddenly felt strange. When he looked down, his face instantly turned pale.
Ye Heng was 1.87 meters tall and had a well-proportioned body. On the other hand, Tang Yu was only 1.70 meters tall. Because of years of pleasure, his body had long been hollowed out and he was skinny.
The former’s clothes had grown a lot longer on him. He looked like a skinny monkey who had stolen someone’s clothes.
Tang Mingxi held back his laughter and sighed. “Cousin, I thought of a saying.”
Tang Mingxi’s expression was innocent, but there was also a hint of cunning in it. He said slowly, “It’s said that even if you wear an imperial robe, you won’t look like a prince.”
