Privilege was not an option, especially in front of so many people. How could he open the back door for his third daughter? His gaze darkened slightly at the thought. Not only were they splitting up, but there were also the other four daughters to consider. He did not want to bear the title of being biased for such trash!
If it were No. 5, he wouldn’t mind acting one way in front of everyone and another behind their back. But… Clearly, No. 3 wasn’t worth it.
If Tang Wenyi knew what he was thinking, she would definitely cry and faint. Could it be that the years of father-daughter relationship between them could not compare to these so-called benefits? However, at this moment, she could not think of this at all. The huge pressure swept over her like a wave, making a buzzing sound in her ears. Her forehead felt like it had been hit by a bell again and again. She was dizzy.
Somehow, she couldn’t help but say, “I-I didn’t do anything wrong! Old Master, it’s alright even if you give me fifty cents today; otherwise, I’ll be mocked! I-I’ve had enough of this life. On the account that I have your blood in my body, help me!”
She did not hide her motive at all. What was face? In any case, the Old Master had already given a gag order. Only their family would know about today’s matter. So what if they mocked and belittled her? Shameless people were invincible. Even though her status in those people’s hearts had fallen, as long as she was a member of the main family, these people could not act rashly!
Lin Jinxu raised her fan, her eyes filled with contempt and disdain. As the third daughter of the Tang family, how could she show such a humble side in public? It would be embarrassing if word got out! Moreover, she had yet to be a role model for the family. If it were her, she would rather die than bend her back! How embarrassing!
“Third Cousin, can you be a little more promising? If you don’t have it, so be it. Can’t you just admit defeat? Besides, didn’t you not care about your attitude just now? If you really have the heart and pay a little attention to family matters, you can contribute. You will have a share next year, right? It might even be more than a dollar!”
Her uncle pretended to be sincere and said, “Jinxu is right. We can understand you this year. After all, you just returned from Shanghai and might not have adjusted well. However, the family has always only rewarded people who contributed. Even your fifth sister is treated the same as us. How can Big Brother protect you?
If you can be like Yajing, it doesn’t matter even if your year-end bonus is higher than ours.”
Of course, this was impossible. At the end of the day, he would not allow anyone to live better than him. Therefore, when he faced Tang Yajing, he tweaked his words. He was being double-faced.
.
However, how could the others not know what he was thinking? Not to mention that it was purely because the other party was the younger brother of the family head, the old man did not even say anything. What else could they say? They could not overstep their authority, right? If that happened, things would probably turn very ugly.
Tang Yajing looked at the old master silently. What these people said was useless. At most, it had a little reference value. In the end, wasn’t it her father who made the decision? She tapped the table rhythmically and asked, “Old Master, what do you think? What Uncle and Cousin said makes sense.”
“… No. 3, are you determined to have the bonus?”

The old man asked expressionlessly.
Those who knew him well knew that he was in a bad mood now, but for her own selfish desires, Tang Wenyi said with a trembling voice, “Yes… Yes! I want it. I’ll do anything you want, as long as you’re willing to give it to me!”
This made the others’ impression of her plummet again. She really couldn’t read the mood. Couldn’t she wait for the Old Master’s anger to subside a little before saying anything? They didn’t know what was wrong with her brain. She was hopeless! It seemed that instead of hoping for Third Miss to become the head of the family, they might as well hope that the sow could climb a tree!
Some of the onlookers who didn’t know the truth also abandoned the thought of Third Miss becoming the family head. They secretly thought to themselves, Only a fool would place his bet on this person unless he doesn’t want money.
“In that case, hand over five million yuan to fill the family’s shortfall. This way, you can consider yourself to have contributed. In that case, I don’t mind giving you fifty cents and a box of apples. It’s up to you what you choose. However, I think you need to be clear. Everyone is waiting for your answer. Your speedy reply will determine if we can end the meeting early.”
Five million yuan for fifty cents. This was definitely a loss. If No. 3 really valued reputation, she would definitely give five million yuan to the family. This was considered a profit for her, but…
Based on the old man’s understanding of his child, she probably didn’t want to let go of either of them. Just because she wanted everything, she came back from Shanghai in defeat. If she couldn’t even deal with Lu Ming, who had nothing back then, what else could she do?
As expected, after Tang Wenyi heard this, the hope that had just ignited in her eyes was extinguished again. Isn’t the old man trying to kill me? One million yuan for one cent. I might as well rob a bank! Although she did have five million yuan, and this money was specially given to her by Yang Shuhai because he was afraid that she would be ostracized by her family, it was really difficult for her to spit it all out now.
She suddenly wondered if the old man had done it on purpose. Otherwise, why did it just happen to be five million yuan? It wasn’t 50,000 yuan, nor was it 50,000 yuan. She thought of the other party’s hands and eyes and felt that it was not impossible for him to know about this.

The old house fell into an eerie silence again.
No one was willing to give Tang Wenyi an out. Most of them leaned back in their chairs and crossed their arms in front of their chests. There were even some who slowly yawned. They came here for a meeting early in the morning. In the end, because No. 3 was dawdling until now, those who wanted to leave early gave up on this idea. According to the current situation, they would probably have to wait for a while.
Thinking back to the times before No. 3 came back, year-end meetings were harmonious events. Basically, one could leave after receiving the money. At most, one would chat with familiar relatives for a while. But this year, they were stuck in a bad situation. In addition, the bonus was ridiculously little. As the culprit, Tang Wenyi did not know her limits at all.
It made them watch more shows for no reason.
Tang Rongrong and Tang Wanxi, who wanted to play mahjong quickly, looked at each other. The former looked at the silent Third Sister anxiously and couldn’t help but say, “Third Sister, can you make a decision quickly? You’re the one who wants to get the reward no matter what the price is. Now, you’re the one who’s unwilling to pay the five million yuan. What’s wrong? Do you want to be a freeloader?”
