Help! The Villainess Trapped in the Beast World's Drama!

Chapter 225: Chapter 217: Flower in the Trash Can

”Tangtang, you’ve come!”

A deep and excited voice called from not far away.

Six people turned their heads to look over.

Shen Xu, looking sharp in his suit and holding tulips, stood out from the crowd with his tall and elegant figure, exuding a noble and gentle aura.

Not only did Xiao Jin and the others show surprise, but Shen Tang was also full of astonishment.

Why did he come?

Shen Xu walked up to Shen Tang, stuffed the tulips into her arms, looking tense, ”Tangtang, I knew you were coming today, so I specially came to pick you up.”

”... Um, thank you.” Shen Tang accepted the bouquet and thanked him. Although she didn’t feel much affection for this nominal brother, there wasn’t any deep hatred between them either.

Since he came to greet her with a gift, she didn’t want to embarrass him publicly.

Shen Xu sighed in relief, the atmosphere still slightly awkward, not knowing what to say next.

Shen Tang looked up at him, speaking first, ”How did you know I was coming today?”

Shen Xu glanced at Lu Xiao beside him, ”Today is the day Young Master Lu resumes his duties. I thought you might come with him, so I came ahead to wait for you...” He then turned back to Shen Tang, reminiscing, ”Remember how you used to say you wished I would come to pick you up whenever you went out to play, but unfortunately, I was always too busy and couldn’t find the time.”

Was he really too busy to come, or just didn’t care?

She remembered how Shen Xu would always come to pick up Shen Qingli from the airport each time, while the original host was repeatedly stood up by him.

Shen Tang sneered inwardly; the original host indeed cherished this brother who cared for her since childhood, but that was the original host’s wish, and she didn’t need it.

She calmly spoke, ”That was in the past. There’s no need in the future. We aren’t truly siblings, and you don’t need to make a special trip for this. Your real sister Shen Qingli needs you more.”

”I just...” Shen Xu’s deep eyes landed on her delicate face, feeling even more conflicted.

Now, Shen Tang has undergone a complete transformation; she is stunningly beautiful with a noble and aloof aura, his gaze unconsciously trails after her.

Yet, her gaze towards him was indifferent and emotionless, as if looking at a stranger.

She was no longer the sister trailing behind him.

Shen Xu knew he had made mistakes before and wanted to mend the sibling relationship as much as possible, but Shen Tang no longer seemed to need it.

Shen Xu swallowed his unsaid words with difficulty, glanced at the direction of the mall, sighed and reminded, ”I’ve come to remind you of one thing.”

”Yun Han is back, you... don’t act out and annoy him like before.”

”He already said he doesn’t like you. Next month, he’s set to marry Qingli. Don’t get angry...”

Today, Shen Xu was sure Shen Tang would come back, naturally because Yun Han had returned.

Given her madness and love for him, she couldn’t possibly resist coming back sooner.

The reality proved itself.

Shen Tang raised an eyebrow, sneering, ”Am I worth getting angry over two dogs?”

Shen Xu’s expression froze, his handsome face looked unpleasant, reprimanding, ”Tangtang, I know Qingli didn’t get along with you before, but she has suffered a lot of grievances over the years. You really did take things from her in the past, and did so many wrong things. Now you’re even, calling her names is too much!”

Even?

Shen Tang really felt like laughing to death.

If the original host’s soul were still here, this brother would certainly agitate her alive.

Back then, the hospital mix-up wasn’t something the original host chose.

Without the royal family, without the title of princess, the original host, with her female identity and S-level spiritual power, could still live a thriving life and earn happiness!

Shen Tang didn’t deny the original host’s vicious personality, but she was raised by the royal family. Could they say they had no influence on shaping her?

After finding their biological daughter, the Emperor and others discarded the original host like a worn-out shoe.

In the past, Shen Tang might think the original host deserved it, but now she knows she was likely incriminated. The real collusion with the rebel army was done by Shen Qingli, who pinned all the blame on the original host.

During the original host’s most broken and desperate times, this so-called family watched coldly, pushing her into hell.

The suffering the original host endured was all caused by these people!

Where did Shen Xu get the cheek to say even?

Shen Xu heard Shen Tang’s sneer, froze in expression, recalling his purpose of coming here, hurriedly explained, ”I-I don’t mean that, Tangtang, I just hope you and Qingli will get along well in the future. She’s really kind and gentle. You two definitely had misunderstandings before...”

It’s true Shen Xu wanted to mend things with Shen Tang, but what he cherished most was naturally his real sister Shen Qingli.

Seeing him still defending Shen Qingli, Shen Tang’s annoyance grew, but she was too lazy to argue.

”Alright, shut up. I don’t care about those two dogs.”

”To publicly ruin an engagement and slander a princess, whoever wants Yun Family’s good Young Master can have him.”

”I’m not into garbage recycling. Those who consider garbage valuable, I find filthy and disgusting!”

”I’ll say it one last time, Yun Family has nothing to do with me, and I won’t be angered by dogs I don’t know. Crown Prince, please leave!”

Shen Tang’s voice rang loud and clear, and nearby passersby heard it, shocked internally, listening carefully, gathering to watch the drama.

Throughout the Empire, everyone knew how crazily Shen Tang loved that Young Master Yun, almost begging him to marry her. Now, she’s publicly cursing Yun Han as a dog!

The distinguished Icefield Snow Wolf, cursed as a dog by her.

Was this a case of love turning into hate?

The scene was truly too thrilling!

While passersby reeled in shock, their hearts pounded with excitement. Some people immediately took out Light Computers to snap pictures and record videos,

Shen Tang was in a rage and didn’t notice the crowd’s actions.

Besides, she didn’t care.

On the contrary, she wished the entire Empire could hear what she said today.

Her lips curled into a cold smile, enunciating each word,

”For a man with such despicable conduct, unless I’m dead, even if he kneels and begs me to marry him one day, I wouldn’t spare him a glance!”

Xiao Jin and the others, hearing her declarations, were also stirred fervently.

The Beast Husbands, having been with her for so long, could more or less guess that secret—but they didn’t know the truth, still harboring misgivings regarding ”her” and Yun Han’s past.

Her momentary display couldn’t deceive their eyes—she truly cared, felt sad, felt sorrow.

Now, hearing her resolute declarations, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

However, then came the thought. Shen Tang had never had such a big reaction to any male before. Could this truly be a case of love turning into hate, deliberately saying harsh words?

Instantly, the Beast Husbands’ feelings were even more complicated, but none showed it.

Shen Tang grew tired of wasting time, eager to finish her business, as Xiao Jin and Lu Xiao dispersed the surrounding crowd and headed towards the military headquarters.

There was a trash bin along the way, and Shen Tang tossed the bouquet inside.

A hint of melancholy flashed through her heart but quickly dissipated like a gust of wind, ”It’s bound to wilt in a few days anyways, might as well toss it now.”

The moment the bouquet flew into the trash, she felt the emotions belonging to the original host inside her gradually dissipating...

—The past is gone, from this moment on, let me live completely for you.

—For the wrongs you committed, life will punish.

—For the grievances and injustices you suffered, redress is due.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Jin and the others felt the disposal was right; no one cared for tardy and cheap affection.

Tangtang has them now. Let the Crown Prince or Young Master Yun roll away.

When Shen Xu caught up, he could no longer find Shen Tang’s figure but saw the tulips thrown beside various trash in the garbage bin.

He stood frozen at the spot, his handsome and deep face revealing a trace of gloom.

Everything he did before was unforgivable to her.

Shen Xu stood by the trash bin for a moment, finally sighed, turned, and left.
