Glamorous Doctor

Mrs. Zhao certainly knew the contract she'd signed, but she didn't actually care about it.

"Listen carefully, Guo Hailong. The contract I signed with you did agree to let my daughter marry you."

"And once I receive the inheritance, I will fully support you, equivalent to investing in your new energy project."

"But in return, you need to give me half of the shares."

"If you can't do that, you'll have to compensate me, so you shouldn't be so pleased with yourself."

Mrs. Zhao's words seemed to suggest the contract was binding on both parties.

It appeared that Mrs. Zhao wasn't at a disadvantage, yet she never considered that her daughter, Zhao Xiaotang, was the biggest victim.

Getting nothing, yet becoming Guo Hailong's fiancée.

It's utterly ironic; Zhao Xiaotang was completely disappointed in her mother.

Even Guo Hailong didn't deny Mrs. Zhao's words. Instead, he asked, "If that's the case, according to the contract, your daughter should be marrying me now, but look, your daughter's sitting on another man's lap."

"That's why I'm here to handle this, but you should also be a bit nicer to my daughter," Mrs. Zhao said angrily, seemingly displeased with Guo Hailong's attitude.

Guo Hailong didn't think much of this woman. The game had just begun; the real drama was yet to come. Eventually, this woman would understand what it means to be a step away from heaven, a step into hell.

Mrs. Zhao turned back and scolded Zhao Xiaotang, "Aren't you going to get down? You're engaged, yet shamelessly sitting on another man's lap."

Zhao Xiaotang said directly, "You signed the contract, it has nothing to do with me. You don't have the right to control my life."

"If someone has to get married, you go ahead."

Zhao Xiaotang had reached her limit; she and her mother could no longer reach an understanding.

"Everything I did was for you. Do you have any idea how many women are lining up to marry Guo Hailong?"

"Do you also want to be foolish like this woman? Not being the respectable mistress of the Guo family, but becoming someone's mistress and having their children? That's utterly brainless."

Mrs. Zhao directly cursed Xu Mengyan.

Xu Mengyan could endure it, but Zhang Yang couldn't.

"You damned old woman, I don't care what you say about your daughter, but if you talk about my woman, then we need to sort this out properly."

Mrs. Zhao didn't pay much attention to Zhang Yang; to her, he was just a reckless young man from Dragon Country, relying on his skills to cause trouble here.

As the saying goes, a strong dragon can't suppress a local snake. Mrs. Zhao sneered at Zhang Yang and said, "Boy, I don't care what you did before, but don't mess with my daughter."

"I don't want to curse your woman either, but don't let your woman meddle in our business. You lied to me saying you would clarify things about my daughter online, which is why I brought you here."

"I didn't expect you to come for trouble."

"Now take your lowlifes and get out of here as far as possible. Our family's business doesn't need your interference."

Zhang Yang was amused by her words and then stood up to set Zhao Xiaotang down.

Zhao Xiaotang sensed something was wrong, knowing Zhang Yang was about to act against her mom, she said to him, "Don't be impulsive, at least don't resort to violence."

"That's not up to you. Your mom just couldn't keep her mouth shut."

"Let me tell you, people like your mom only understand their mistakes after learning a lesson."

"Do you still want to reason with your mom? If you could reason with her, you wouldn't be troubled by her here."

Zhang Yang's words left Zhao Xiaotang stunned.

Zhang Yang couldn't care less; if this woman cursed him alone, it wouldn't matter, but she included Xu Mengyan and Shen Mange in her curses, which was a different story.

Mrs. Zhao also knew it was wise not to suffer immediate losses, seeing Zhang Yang approaching, she quickly said to Guo Hailong, "Quick, stop him, take that boy down."

Guo Hailong looked at Mrs. Zhao like she was an idiot, showing no intention of getting up. He wouldn't fight Zhang Yang for an old woman.

His scores with Zhang Yang would be settled eventually, but he wasn't in a hurry.

Seeing Guo Hailong unmoved, Mrs. Zhao grew anxious.

"What are you waiting for? Stop him or call your men up."

Guo Hailong was slightly surprised; how did this woman know he had people arranged?

"That's a conflict between you and him. It's none of my business. Why should I stop him?" Guo Hailong bluntly replied, giving no face.

Mrs. Zhao immediately furiously cursed, "What kind of talk is that? Aren't you my son-in-law? Now your mother-in-law is about to be hit, are you going to stand by and watch?"

"Your daughter doesn't want to marry me now. Are you still my mother-in-law?" Guo Hailong's retort left Mrs. Zhao speechless.

Before they knew it, Zhang Yang was in front of Mrs. Zhao. Seeing this, Mrs. Zhao directly hid behind Guo Hailong and hurriedly said to him:

"Don't worry, I won't let my daughter entangle with this person, so my son-in-law can only be you, now quickly deal with this guy."

But no matter how much Mrs. Zhao said, Guo Hailong was still unmoved.

Zhang Yang once again approached Mrs. Zhao from behind, and she kept shaking Guo Hailong.

It didn't help at all, until Zhang Yang grabbed Mrs. Zhao's hair.

Witnessing this, Zhao Xiaotang turned her head away, unwilling to watch further.

The day's events made Zhao Xiaotang feel terrible.

Betrayed by her best friend, sold out by her mom, Zhao Xiaotang no longer knew what was real.

Zhang Yang didn't care about any of that; he grabbed Mrs. Zhao's hair and slapped her face.

"Who were you calling a lowlife earlier? If you're so tough, curse again—go ahead..."

Zhang Yang had no patience for such heartless parents.

Maybe it was because of his relationship with Xiao Man; regardless, he was thoroughly upset with Mrs. Zhao.

Several slaps later, he left Mrs. Zhao dizzy, even knocking out two teeth.

Her face swelled like a pig's head, and finally, Mrs. Zhao was scared, mainly realizing Guo Hailong didn't help at all.

This cold and uncaring display finally made her understand why her daughter refused to marry Guo Hailong no matter what.

"Still want to curse?" Zhang Yang asked with a chuckle.

"No more, no more, I was wrong, I really know I was wrong, please let me go," Mrs. Zhao begged repeatedly, afraid Zhang Yang would strike again.
