Rebirth in 1986: Unforgettable Regrets

"If you hadn't intended to insult my mom, how could my dad have laid hands on you?" Tang Yue looked coldly at Liu Hu, whose swollen face had receded quite a bit, revealing his original square-shaped face.

Liu Hu grinned and said, "So what? Your dad beat me up, he should go to jail, what's wrong with that?"

Liu Hu had always been a hoodlum in the county, carrying an aura of a hooligan and ruffian.

Liu Hu admitted that he wanted to make advances on Zhang Hualian, but, he had barely started when Tang Zhengde had already lost control and hit him.

"That's shameless." Lian Qingyang wished he could step forward and punch him.

Lian Qingyang was thinking about raising the amount of money.

Tang Yue grabbed him and said, "Lian Qingyang, this is our family's business, it has nothing to do with you."

"I just want to help you." Lian Qingyang anxiously looked at Tang Yue.

Tang Yue glared at him and said, "No need."

Tang Yue knelt down and began to pick up the hundred yuan notes scattered on the ground.

As soon as Bai Qing and Tang Jun entered the room, they began to pick up the money.

"Wow, Lian Qingyang, you really are the young master of a wealthy family." Bai Qing said while picking up money, "No wonder you have things like computers and mobile phones."

"How much money is this." Tang Jun mechanically followed suit, picking up the money. The family's conditions had improved, and they had money now, but such a layer of money on the ground was a visual impact that brought him a shock he had never experienced before.

Tang Jun couldn't help but glance at Lian Qingyang. He seemed only a few years older than him and appeared quite casual when he came to his house yesterday.

Is this amount of New Year's money simply taken out just like that?

Liu Hu watched as the money was being put into bags, he stretched his neck, unable to help swallowing his saliva. The money on the ground and on the bed was worth a hundred thousand.

Liu Hu's hand landed on the hundred yuan note on the blanket, touching the hundred yuan bills, a genuine feeling of happiness rose from the bottom of his heart.

In the past, he had never even seen ten thousand, let alone one thousand, or even one thousand yuan.

At home, there were at most one or two hundred yuan notes, which would quickly be spent.

Most of the time, the family only had change that added up to a hundred yuan.

Four people picking up money together, soon, the money in the hospital room was nearly all picked up.

When Tang Yue saw Liu Hu's hand trying to hide a hundred yuan note, she unceremoniously snatched it back and said, "Liu Hu, if you don't take this money today, you won't get the chance in the future."

"What do you mean?" Liu Hu's heart skipped a beat as he saw Tang Yue's icy gaze, a bad feeling surfaced in his heart.

"From now on, I will only pay for medical expenses," Tang Yue enunciated each word.

Liu Hu suddenly became agitated, yelling, "Impossible, I want to sue your dad to jail for ten or eight years!"

"Liu Zixuan." Tang Yue stood straight in front of his hospital bed, speaking unhurriedly.

Liu Hu blurted out, "You, how do you know him?"

"I not only know him, but I also know he's your illegitimate son with another woman," Tang Yue said, word by word.

Liu Hu's face changed.

"Does it matter if your wife knows?" Tang Yue asked.

Liu Hu didn't answer, but his reply was quite obvious.

"Your wife gave birth to two daughters for you, one older and one younger, but you don't care about that because you have a son, right?" Tang Yue asked again.

"So what if you know that?" Liu Hu didn't care anymore. For the sake of his son, he wasn't afraid. If it came to divorce, then so be it.

He would soon have money, and his son would definitely be close to him.

"That may be true, but if people find out about Liu Zixuan's affairs, it won't be good." Tang Yue's gaze settled on Liu Hu, and with a slight curl of her lips, upon seeing Liu Hu's expression greatly change, she continued: "Wang Meilian."

Tang Yue mentioned just one name.

Instantly, Liu Hu's face changed as he said: "I don't know her, she has nothing to do with our Zixuan, she died last year." Liu Hu's voice raised several pitches.

Tang Yue retorted: "If it really has nothing to do with your family's Liu Zixuan, then why are you so nervous?"

"Take a look at this." Tang Yue handed over a document.

Liu Hu was illiterate, but he knew it definitely wasn't anything good, and without thinking, he tore it all to shreds. He stood up from the bed, agitated, with an unsightly posture, glaring at Tang Yue as if he wanted to devour her alive.

"What are you doing?" Tang Jun stood upright in front of Tang Yue.

Lian Qingyang gave Liu Hu a shove, pushing him onto the bed and said: "Hey, just talk. Why get so close?"

"It doesn't matter if you tore it. We all know about it now. So, if you want to keep your son, then withdraw the case and give up on suing my father." Tang Yue stated her purpose.

It took a lot of effort for Tang Yue and Bai Qing to find out about Liu Zixuan and even uncover his weaknesses. To gather such information, they spent all the dividend money they got from Sister An Yu.

"My son has nothing to do with her," Liu Hu still struggled.

"The judge will naturally find out if there's any relation." Tang Yue didn't bother to argue with Liu Hu.

"Xiao Jun, let's go. Now, we are the plaintiffs." Tang Yue pulled Tang Jun and walked out.

Liu Hu watched them leave, thinking about the possibility of his only son getting into trouble, and he couldn't hold on anymore. US$ 10,000 was not a small amount.

"US$ 10,000 then, I won't sue anymore." Liu Hu said through gritted teeth.

Tang Yue turned back and smiled sweetly.

Liu Hu, of course, couldn't appreciate Tang Yue's enchanting smile; what he cared about were Tang Yue's words.

"Sorry, but we can't offer US$ 10,000." Tang Yue tossed the purse to Lian Qingyang: "This money belongs to my classmate."

"Then, US$ 5,000." Liu Hu lowered his demands.

Tang Yue scoffed coldly: "Sorry, we don't have US$ 5,000 either. US$ 1,000, take it or leave it. Otherwise, I might as well enjoy being the plaintiff."

This US$ 1,000 was the price negotiated with the lawyer by Tang Yue, covering all of Liu Hu's medical expenses and compensations.

Liu Hu heard the US$ 1,000 offer, which was far less than the US$ 10,000 he had heard before, not to mention US$ 20,000. He was so angry he could vomit blood. If only he had known, he would have accepted Lian Qingyang's US$ 10,000.

Liu Hu's heart ached terribly, and he said: "Fine, I won't sue."

Tang Yue was overjoyed and immediately said: "Then let's leave right away."

"That won't work, my leg still hasn't healed." Naturally, Liu Hu was reluctant.

Tang Yue gave Tang Jun a look: "Xiao Jun, go borrow a wheelchair."

And so, Liu Hu was pushed in a wheelchair to the police station. As the victim, Liu Hu didn't wish to sue anymore and wanted to settle privately – the case was effectively withdrawn.

"Thank goodness." Holding Tang Jun's hand, Tang Yue's face was filled with excitement, and the fatigue from the past few days seemed to be largely lifted today.
