The Anarchic Consort Novel - Chapter 1039
Chapter 1039: Old Thing
When Old Tan heard her words, his body trembled violently as he looked at Helian Wei Wei with exasperation. “No matter who you are, it’s already over between me and her. Disgusting or not, if she had agreed to divorce me, things wouldn’t be the way it is now and I wouldn’t have been fired from the school. Why does the woman not let me free even in death? Great, I have nothing left now, I hope she’s happy! She’s so cruel, I can’t believe that I fell for her!”
Helian Wei Wei chuckled coldly. “Mr. Tan, aren’t you overrating yourself? Miss Tao Zi mentioned that you’re just an old thing, so who else would truly care for you besides Auntie Lin? You called Auntie Lin cruel, but she was the one that resigned from her job and rode the broken trishaw to sell cakes by the streets, just to let you completely focus on your research in the past. How do you think you could’ve achieved all these today?”
She continued, “If it wasn’t for Auntie Lin, you would just be a poor nerd, so who’s the cruel one? Who’s the ungrateful one? She was your childhood friend for more than 10 years and married to you for 30 years, yet none of her love and sacrifice can be compared to a mistress who seduced you. How dare you even talk about your profession? The one that caused you to lose your job is your disgusting behavior and this promiscuous Miss Tao Zi who’s a homewrecker. At this stage, you still can’t tell who’s truly kind to you. It looks like Auntie Lin is better off dead than being alive, so she can stop wasting her precious time on you. How can a sc*m like you exist in this world? The education system should really tighten the requirements needed to be an educator, so that at the very least an old sc*m like you won’t be one.”
“You!” Old Tan was in a miserable state, with his hair terribly unkempt. His usual arrogance had completely evaporated as he pointed furiously at Helian Wei Wei, his finger violently shivering. “Where do you even come from? I’m warning you, you’re still young, so I won’t argue with you. What do our issues have anything to do with you? You’re just a busybody that spouts utter nonsense, why don’t you mind your own business? Don’t interfere with other people’s issues! It’s ridiculous! Is this even related to you, why do you care?”
Baili Jia Jue’s eyes suddenly darkened.
Clap! A thundering crack suddenly echoed in the air!
A lightning bolt had emerged out of the blue and split the tree behind Old Tan cleanly into half.
Old Tan’s face instantly distorted as he was extremely astonished. He clutched his chest with his left hand and powerfully patted it to calm himself.
Tao Zi was overcome with fear when Helian Wei Wei appeared.
She knew clearly that her affair was exposed because of them.
Every time Tao Zi looked at Helian Wei Wei, she would be reminded of what the man in black told her that night.
How can such a poor and disappointing life possibly be mine!
I’m so young and beautiful, I can get any man I want.
As soon as I got rid of this burdensome Old Tan, many people would die for me after I graduate.
However, Tao Zi weirdly felt that everything seemed to be unfolding in the direction of that aforementioned prediction…
One of the gifts that she promised to give the old woman was that Old Tan and her reputation would be utterly tarnished.
Curiously, a spine-chilling sensation crept into Tao Zi’s heart again.
She looked nervously at Helian Wei Wei, afraid of her next move.
However, Helian Wei Wei did not do anything and merely stood in front of Baili Jia Jue, blocking him. Then, she glared at Old Tan and replied, “You’re right, this has nothing to do with me. I’m simply relaying the message from Auntie Lin. As for the rest of them, whatever happens to Mr. Tan afterward is due to your own actions. Of course, that is the same for Miss Tao Zi as well.”
When she finished speaking, Helian Wei Wei shot a spiteful glance in Tao Zi’s direction.
Tao Zi was shocked by her gaze, and wanted to abandon Old Tan to flee immediately.
Now, the students looked at her with a different gaze from before. Even though she was not expelled, she did not have a great time in school.
Old Tan’s appearance would not be any help to her in the future. Instead, he was like a dollop of stinky expired ointment that she must dispose of.
However, Old Tan did not realize what Tao Zi was thinking of, and he wanted to ask her to stay. He did not even glance at Helian Wei Wei, as if the advice from the person who accompanied him for half of his life did not hold any importance.
Baili Jia Jue pouted when he saw this scene, as he lifted the slightly unhappy little Phoenix up and whispered, “He’ll regret this. Soon, he will know just how foolish he is.”
“No killing.” Helian Wei Wei turned and looked at him, her expression had become more lively after turning small.
Baili Jia Jue laughed and said, “Kill a man like this? Wei Wei, you’re looking down demons like us too much. From the aesthetic point of view, murdering an old man like him would smear our reputation, as we only kill fresh meat. A piece of garbage that reeks of the nastiest stench would not even be appetizing to Shang Xie, who’s not a picky eater, much less me. We won’t eat expired rice even when having a meal, right?”
Helian Wei Wei was rendered speechless…
“But you said he will regret this.”
Baili Jia Jue’s hand slid off Helian Wei Wei’s hair and touched the tip of her nose. “Demons can smell the scent of death, I’m sure his time is almost up.”
Just as he said it.
A loud noise suddenly rumbled from afar!
Apparently, what Tao Zi said had greatly agitated Old Tan and caused him to have a heart attack, as he firmly held onto Tao Zi and would not let go.
Tao Zi shoved him forcefully, as he stumbled and fell down the staircase.
Old Tan’s head was cracked. As blood streamed from his skull and stained the floor, he desperately tried to grab his heart medicine that had fallen out of his pocket.
However, the distance was too far and he could not reach it.
Old Tan looked at Tao Zi with bloodshot eyes, hoping that she would bring the medicine to him.
Unexpectedly, Tao Zi glared at him with a spiteful expression and blurted, “Old thing, you’re better off dead!” After that, she ran into the dorm without even looking back.
Old Tan huffed heavily as he panted for air. As he clutched his chest in pain, for some reason, he suddenly remembered the time when he had a heart attack for the first time. The one beside him who was extremely worried for his life, and who cooked every meal diligently for him.
He chased her out of the house, desperately not wanting to see that old face ever again.
He even found it annoying that she liked to converse with him when she was having a meal, as he thought that it was an uncultured behavior.
He especially hated her hand that was filled with callus and was utterly disgusted when he looked at it.
However, he clearly forgot that without those hands, he would have nothing. He might even be dead long ago.
Old Tan felt deep regret in his heart that no one could understand. As he gazed hopelessly at the sky, he started to whimper in pain. He was choking and gasping, simply unable to breathe.
Luckily, a passerby found him and instantly called the ambulance for him.
However, Helian Wei Wei could clearly see the reapers that were emerging from the shadows and following closely beside Old Tan…
