Capítulo 19: Chapter 19: Your Father is Tang Hao, Right?
Tang San felt an unbearable pain in his heart, his fists clenched so tightly that his long nails dug into the palms of his hands.
"Brother, this hat is called the 'Hat of Fate.' Wearing it can enhance your luck," Xiao Wu said, holding the green hat in front of him. Seeing Tang San's reaction, she suddenly felt her heart tightening.
Could it be that he knows the hat can see through his intentions, and that's why he's reacting so intensely?
Could everything that Xu Ran said be true? Was he intentionally getting close to her?
If he were truly unaware, how could he display such an expression upon seeing the hat? Clearly, he knows a lot, even the meaning of this hat.
All kinds of questions rushed into Xiao Wu's mind, causing her to shiver from head to toe. Seeing Tang San's reaction, a chilling sensation rose from her feet and struck her heart, making her shudder involuntarily.
She dared not consider the implications until the final outcome was revealed.
"The Hat of Fate?"
"No."
"This is green, green-colored; it's a cuckold's hat," Tang San vehemently shook his head. In both his past and present life, a green hat held the same meaning.
Is Xiao Wu giving him a green hat as a way to humiliate him?
She was just seen with another man yesterday, and now she's giving him a green hat, a token of shame.
Even if Tang San were emotionally clueless, he could now sense the thick air of humiliation. His dignity had been trampled upon.
Was Xiao Wu really this kind of person?
How had he not seen it before?
She had found another man behind his back, cuckolded him, and now even gave him a green hat. How could such a person exist in this world?
"This indeed is a green hat; the darker the green, the stronger the force of destiny," Xiao Wu said, her heart breaking even more. If he already know what the green represents, was his reaction a form of escaping from reality?
"No, Xiao Wu, you can't do this," Tang San looked at Xiao Wu angrily, so furious he could hardly speak. As he stared at the green hat, his eyes seemed about to burst from their sockets.
He made a startling discovery: the closer the green hat came to him, the brighter its green light became...
The green glow was so blinding it nearly blinded him.
"The stronger the green light, the more potent the force of destiny," a serene voice spoke. Xu Ran walked up to Xiao Wu, looking at Tang San.
A faint smile appeared on his face.
"Is it you?" Tang San became furious. He immediately recognized Xu Ran's voice as the one he had heard in Xiao Wu's room the day before.
"Did you manipulate Xiao Wu into giving me this hat? Why would you do such a thing?" Tang San glared at Xu Ran, trembling from head to toe. It was bad enough that this man had taken Xiao Wu away from him, but to have her give him a green hat was too much.
What normal man could endure such humiliation?
Even he, Tang San, felt deeply humiliated.
He knew Xiao Wu's character; even if she had feelings for someone else, she would never do something like this to him. Clearly, Xiao Wu was under this man's influence.
"Why? I simply want you to stay away from Xiao Wu. I don't want her to get hurt by you," Xu Ran responded, wrapping an arm around Xiao Wu's slim waist, his gaze fixed on Tang San.
"Hurt Xiao Wu? How could I possibly hurt her?" Tang San retorted angrily. He didn't have the heart to harm her; he loved her too much. Now he finally understood that this man was trying to steal Xiao Wu away, even manipulating her not to trust him.
A sense of disappointment filled him, knowing that Xiao Wu could doubt him. But what overwhelmed him more was anger. Any misunderstandings between him and Xiao Wu could be resolved over time, but this man clearly had other intentions toward Xiao Wu.
And he even had the audacity to hold Xiao Wu in his arms. This man was trying to take her away and make a fool out of him. If he succeeded, it would be the ultimate disgrace.
Tang San's eyes shifted to Xu Ran, and in that instant, he felt a surge of anger.
Xu Ran's arm was brazenly wrapped around Xiao Wu's slender waist, his palm resting on her flat, toned abdomen.
Tang San thought, I've never even touched Xiao Wu, who does this man think he is, daring to touch her? Xiao Wu, held in Xu Ran's embrace, also felt a bit panicked. She quickly broke free from his grip, still holding the hat in her hands.
"Brother Xu Ran, please don't," Xiao Wu said apologetically. Being an Auspicious Beast, his identity was extremely valuable. In the vicinity was a Titled Douluo, and Xu Ran had not only been cautious about hiding, but had also directly intervened on her behalf. If Tang San were truly a threat, wouldn't that be very risky? Then he would once again be exposed under the watchful eyes of Clear Sky Douluo.
She couldn't help but feel touched. Xu Ran genuinely cared for her and considered her needs. Otherwise, why would he recklessly choose to stay in Nuoding City? And why would he have appeared before Tang San so impulsively?
"Brother Xu Ran?"
Hearing Xiao Wu refer to Xu Ran in such an intimate manner, Tang San was stunned. His body stiffened, immobilized, and his heart felt as if it were being slashed by a sharp knife, filling him with waves of agonizing pain.
Xiao Wu had never called him so endearingly before.
She was calling this man 'brother.' The implications were crystal clear.
"Tang San, there's no point in pretending anymore," Xu Ran said.
"From the beginning, you approached Xiao Wu with a motive. You targeted her because you knew her identity. There's no point in pretending now, even I have to admit, you're quite convincing," Xu Ran continued, revealing a smirk. At this point, Tang San couldn't clear his name.
Emotions may be elusive, but his identity as an Auspicious Beast is undeniable. Who would Xiao Wu believe?
Tang San stood there, utterly bewildered.
Listening to Xu Ran's words, he suddenly felt something was amiss. What did he mean by approaching Xiao Wu with ulterior motives? Tang San looked at Xiao Wu, her cheeks faintly stained with tears. She looked so fragile. Why would she appear so weak? If Xiao Wu truly came to humiliate him, she should be happy right now; why would she display such a despairing expression? Her pain was clearly because of him.
Suddenly, Tang San understood!
He finally understood!
Xiao Wu had not betrayed him, nor had she humiliated him.
While Xu Ran and Xiao Wu did have a deep relationship, it wasn't a romantic one.
It was the despicable Xu Ran who had been scheming behind the scenes, using Xiao Wu's trust in him to slander him. Making Xiao Wu believe that he was the one deceiving her, when the real villain was Xu Ran.
"Xiao Wu, let me explain..." Tang San tried to clear up the misunderstandings, to show Xiao Wu Xu Ran's true colors.
But would Xu Ran allow Tang San to have his way?
He would naturally keep pressing Tang San.
"Still pretending, Tang San? If I remember correctly, you're from the Spirit Saint Village, and your father's name is Tang Hao," Xu Ran probed further. Tang San still had no idea what the implication of his father's existence meant.
The existence of Tang Hao would only deepen Xiao Wu's misunderstandings about Tang San.
