At that moment, Tang San was laughing as he held a woman in his arms and walked straight into the brothel.
Outside, Xiao Wu froze on the spot.
After seeing the entire scene unfold, Xiao Wu could no longer smile.
Just as Liu Yuan had expected.
The prouder Xiao Wu had been before, the more devastated she was now.
She had truly trusted Tang San completely.
In her eyes, Liu Yuan had absolutely been slandering Tang San.
Her third brother was pure and noble, the most perfect man on Douluo Continent. There was no way he could be as vile as Liu Yuan had claimed.
Liu Yuan had to be saying those things to slander her third brother out of envy and jealousy.
But now, it seemed...
She really had been the fool all along.
Tang San really was no good.
Just as Liu Yuan had said.
To Tang San, she was nothing but a dispensable tool!
She had been deceived by Tang San's lies all this time, helping him count the money even as he swindled her.
Xiao Wu suddenly felt a chill settle deep inside her.
By now, she understood that every scene Liu Yuan had shown her earlier had been real.
And she had just seen with her own eyes how familiar Tang San was with those prostitutes. Clearly, this wasn't his first time here.
At the thought, Xiao Wu's eyes reddened. Standing beside Liu Yuan, she looked pitiful and helpless.
"Do you understand now?"
"This is the real Tang San."
Liu Yuan had seen the whole thing clearly.
But even after witnessing it, he didn't show much of a reaction.
There was no chance he would act like some tender-hearted gentleman and comfort Xiao Wu or pull her into his arms.
Liu Yuan wasn't a good person. He had gone to all this trouble to make Xiao Wu see Tang San for what he was only to stoke her hatred of him.
Put simply, he wanted to use Xiao Wu.
So even seeing her upset, Liu Yuan naturally didn't go over to comfort her.
There was no need.
What he needed to do was fan the flames of Xiao Wu's desire for revenge.
He wanted her to hate Tang San too.
That would make things interesting.
So Liu Yuan simply said, coldly, "Do you understand now?"
"I do."
Only after a long silence did Xiao Wu wipe the tears from her eyes.
"I understand. I understand completely."
"I was too naive before. You were the one who was right."
"Thank you for saving me and showing me Tang San's true face. You also made me realize how foolish I was."
Xiao Wu spoke to Liu Yuan in a quiet voice.
Liu Yuan smiled faintly. "Good. I'm glad you understand."
"Do you want to see more?"
Xiao Wu nodded. "I want to see it all."
"I want to know exactly how he wronged me."
Liu Yuan smiled and took Xiao Wu's hand. Then, sneaking into the brothel, they followed closely behind Tang San.
Liu Yuan and Xiao Wu kept close to him.
But the brothel was crowded, and Tang San was completely off guard, so he didn't notice them at all.
They followed him all the way to his room.
After Tang San went inside with two women, Xiao Wu and Liu Yuan found a secluded spot and listened from outside.
Inside the room...
As soon as Tang San entered, he could barely contain himself.
He immediately began groping the women.
Then a string of lewd, wanton sounds came from the room.
"Tang San, from this moment on, we're through!"
Xiao Wu had been hiding outside and listening. Her face had gone livid.
After hearing those sounds, she could easily imagine what was happening inside.
By now, she was so furious that the last shred of hope in her heart had been extinguished.
She spat out the words through gritted teeth, her whole body trembling with rage.
Liu Yuan watched with a faint smile, not making a move.
Things were unfolding exactly as he had hoped.
Tang San, enjoy yourself while you can.
What you didn't know was...
Your every disguise had already been stripped away.
Before long, Xiao Wu would become your enemy.
At the thought, Liu Yuan's smile deepened.
Inside the room, Tang San had also stopped, still holding the women in his arms.
Even Tang San was exhausted after all that activity and needed a rest.
Naturally, the break led to some idle conversation. The women knew Tang San well and were familiar with his circumstances.
One of the plump women asked, "By the way, Young Master Tang, how come you dared to stay so long this time? Didn't you used to worry your girlfriend would find out, so you'd rush through it and leave right away? Aren't you worried now?"
Hearing this, Xiao Wu realized Tang San had been doing this for a long time. Her fury grew even stronger.
Tang San smiled at the plump woman. "I'm not worried anymore. I won't have to worry from now on, either."
"That woman is dead," Tang San told her. "Good riddance. I'm finally rid of her."
"When we were younger, I thought she was all right. But after she grew up, she started acting so high and mighty. She wouldn't even sleep with me, saying she wanted to wait until marriage for it to feel special. Who does she think she is? I was already sick of her."
Tang San said coldly:
"I'm a Soul Emperor now. Who else my age has reached this level?"
"What about the Golden Generation from Spirit Hall? A bunch of useless nobodies. At my age, they're nowhere near my level."
"And the others don't even bear mentioning."
"Do you think I can't find women? If she won't let me touch her, then I don't want to touch her either! Good riddance. Now I can sleep with whoever I want, without having to worry about that woman anymore."
The women naturally chimed in, agreeing with Tang San.
Tang San spent a fair amount whenever he came, so he was one of their regulars.
The prostitutes naturally didn't dare offend him.
Every one of them said Tang San was right, and they all joined in belittling Xiao Wu.
"Exactly! That woman doesn't know a good thing when she sees it. Being chosen by Young Master Tang is a blessing she'd need several lifetimes to earn, and yet she kept putting him off. Did she think she was made of gold?"
"Women like that have no idea what they're worth. I saw her once before. She was so plain, like some country bumpkin. Young Master Tang is handsome and charming. So many talented women want to please him. It's a good thing he got rid of her."
"Exactly, exactly. Well said."
The prostitutes kept talking, one after another, while Tang San laughed with satisfaction. After all, he agreed with them.
But hearing this, Xiao Wu was furious beyond words.
After listening to them, she clenched her fists, nearly grinding her teeth to pieces as she spoke.
"Tang San! I will kill you!"
