Chapter 752: This Was Probably Karma

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor:Nyoi-Bo Studio

Wei Zhigian did not know that the three brothers had guarded against him to this extent.

There was a bathroom in the guest room that Wei Zhigian slept in, but he didn’t use it.

He slept all the way till morning and went to the bathroom to wash up.

Tan Jingi also got up around the same time.

He first checked if someone had passed by his infrared set-up. There was no notification that had indicated so.

He quickly went to the door and kept the device.

Tan Jinyi stayed up all night, there were dark circles under his eyes.

Even though Tan Jinyi had splashed a lot of cold water on his face while washing up, and the peppermint-flavored mouthwash helped him freshen up, because he had not slept all night, he was still in a daze.
Half-awake, he walked out of the room with his phone in his hand.

Suddenly, he was tripped by something sticky that he couldn’t shake off.

There was a loud ‘thump! that shocked everyone.

Tan Wenci and Xu Mingzhen were in the living room on the first floor when they heard the loud ‘thump’ coming from upstairs.

Even Auntie Guo, who was preparing breakfast in the kitchen, looked up in shock with the spatula in her hand.

Tan Wenci and Xu Mingzhen hurried upstairs and saw their youngest son lying prostrate on the corridor floor.

“Third brother, what happened to you? Why did you fall?” Tan Mo came running over noisily in her slippers. “Are you feeling unwell somewhere?” Tan Mo asked as she tried to help Tan Jinyi up.
Tan Jingi also rushed over. “Jinyi, what happened? Why did you suddenly fall?”

If there was something wrong with his body, he had to go to the hospital immediately.

It was not a small matter for someone to fall for no reason so suddenly.

Tan Jinsheng had also rushed over.

‘When Wei Zhigian arrived, he happened to see Tan Jingi and Tan Mo helping Tan Jinyi up.

Tan Wenci and Xu Mingzhen had also arrived at this moment.

“Tm fine. I just didn’t pay attention to my feet and tripped,” Tan Jinyi said and looked down in bewilderment. “Strange. There’s nothing in the corridor. Why did I trip?”
Everyone also looked down.

There was a long piece of transparent tape stuck on Tan Jinyi’s calves, slightly above his ankle.

“Third brother, why is there still tape on your legs?” Tan Mo bent down and helped Tan Jinyi peel off the tape that was stuck to his pants.

Tan Jinyi was completely awake thanks to the fall. He said, “I was wondering why I tripped just now. I must have tripped over this tape.”

Everyone:

“Who is so wicked to stick tape on the corridor?” Tan Wenci could tell from the length of the tape that it was perfectly measured to stick across the path of the corridor.

Tan Jinsheng:

Wei Zhigian didn’t trip over it, but he had ended up tripping his younger brother.
Tan Wenci and Xu Mingzhen’s bedroom was on the first floor.

The Tan siblings and the guest room were all on the second floor.

Therefore, Tan Wenci and Xu Mingzhen had nothing to do with this.

Wei Zhigian was certain that Tan Mo would definitely not be so childish to pull off something like this.
And this was the Tan Mansion, Wei Zhigian wouldn’t dare to play such a prank on his in-laws.

He couldn’t go against them at all. So naturally, he wouldn’t do such a thing.

Therefore, the suspect range was narrowed down to the three Tan brothers.

Tan Jingi and Tan Jinyi also thought this way.

The three brothers looked at each other and saw the suspicion in each other’s eyes.

Wei Zhigian sneered silently.

No matter who did it, it was definitely targeted at him.

But in the end, it missed its target and tripped Tan Jinyi instead.

This was probably karma!

However, Tan Jinyi was the victim, which made it obvious that he was unaware that there was tape here.
Which meant that he could be eliminated from the list of suspects.

The scope was narrowed down to Tan Jingi and Tan Jinsheng.

Tan Jinyi had tripped over outside Tan Jinsheng’s bedroom. It was apparent that the tape was also taped here.
Therefore, there was only one truth to the matter.

Wei Zhigian quickly figured it out.

“confess, it was me.” Tan Jinsheng raised his hand. “I was the one who taped it.”

“Why are you taping this thing for?” Tan Wenci was surprised. “Are you trying to assess our 10?”

Everyone:
What kind of imagination was this?

“Ahem.” Tan Wenci cleared his throat and said, “I saw a video online sharing that to test the intelligence of the cats in the house, just put a piece of transparent tape on it like this. The cats that could jump over it are intelligent while those that didn’t know to evade it were stupid.”

Everyone:
“We don’t have a cat in our house,” Xu Mingzhen said.

“Maybe Jinsheng was trying to use it to test the human intelligence too,” Tan Wenci said.

Everyone:
Everyone suspected that Tan Wenci was questioning Tan Wenci’s IQ, but there was no evidence.

Tan Wenci was also mentally tired.

Of course, he knew Tan Jinsheng’s purpose in setting up this trap. It must be to guard against Wei Zhigian.

Just like how Xu Mingzhen arranged for Wei Zhigian to sleep in the guest room furthest from Tan Mo’s bedroom.

Tan Jinsheng’s bedroom was the only place Wei Zhigian had to pass by to go to Tan Mo’s bedroom. The tape must have been taped to guard against Wei Zhigian.

It was late at night. Wei Zhigian would not dare to turn on the lights in the corridor and attract any attention.

Moreover, his sons slept with the door open at night.

As long as Wei Zhigian wanted to go to Tan Mo’s bedroom, he would definitely trip in the dark.

But in the end, the one who tripped over the trap was his own son.

Of course, Tan Wenci could not expose such a shameful thing truth, so he could only attempt to salvage Tan Jinsheng’s dignity.

“Alright, don’t mind these details!” Tan Wenci waved his hand and didn’t intend to continue to pursue this matter, “Hurry along and head down for breakfast. Zhigian has to go to work. Jinsheng, Jingi, and Mo Mo also have to go to the recording venue of ‘Singing Voice’.”
Star Guest Station wasn’t located in B City but ‘Singing Voice’ was recorded here to make it easier for the singers to get together.

No matter where they are coming from, there would be more direct flights to B city that were available.

Wei Zhigian did not plan to pursue this matter even though he was well aware of what was happening.

After all, he did not suffer any losses. On the contrary, it was the three Tan brothers who did.

This left Wei Zhigian in an extremely pleased mood.

Of course, Tan Mo could also think of the things that everyone thought of.

Tan Wenci and Xu Mingzhen went downstairs first. Tan Mo then pouted and said unhappily to her brothers, “Brother Zhigian wouldn’t be so inconsiderate. Brothers, you’re thinking too much.”

The Tan brothers: “…”

Being despised by their younger sister made them feel uncomfortable.
Tan Jinsheng lowered his head with a guilty look on his face.

He pinched the comer of Tan Mo’s loose sweater sleeve with his fingers and said, “Mo Mo, I was wrong, Don’t be angry with me.”
“Mo Mo, I won’t do it again in the future.” Tan Jinyi said with his head lowered and his face burning red.

Reality proved that this time, they were indeed petty in their thinking this time.

Tan Jingi sighed and said, “This time, it was indeed our fault.”
