183 183 The wrong morals
However, Tan Song looked at Tan Jing thoughtfully and said, “It’s good that you were still able to plan something like this. You are a brave girl, even if your means are still immature and unsuccessful.Don’t listen to your mother. With me raising you, it’s naturally not a problem for you to be a little princess, but the children of the Tan family are not allowed to be useless. You must learn to fight for what you want, even if it means resorting to unscrupulous means, understand?”
Chen Yi didn’t think there was anything wrong with educating the child this way. She nodded. “That’s right. You have to remember that you’re nobler than them. We have the right to make a scene. Don’t be afraid of anything. Money can do everything. As long as you have money, you can do anything. Take this opportunity as a practice run. As long as it’s for the honor of the Tan family, you can do whatever you want.”
Tan Jing felt a little guilty under Tan Song’s gaze. Perhaps it was the inheritance in her blood, or an intuition of the same kind, but Tan Jing felt that Tan Song could see through her.
This was the first time that Tan Song had told her so much and taught her how to do things.
In Tan Jing’s heart, her feelings for Tan Song and Chen Yi were a little complicated. In addition to being close to her biological parents, she was trying to please them. She wanted to stabilize her position in the Tan family and get some money and authority from them.
Although Tan Jing also felt that the two were cold and selfish, and she was inexplicably a little afraid of Tan Song, it was probably because they were indeed a blood-related family. She did not have much sincerity herself. She just wanted to curry favor with these two people and make sure that she would not be abandoned by them.
The longing for the life of a rich family in her heart led to Tan Jing also having a faint worship of Tan Song.
From Tan Jing’s perspective, even the coldness and selfishness in Tan Song’s eyes became the confidence of a rich man. It didn’t matter if he wasn’t particularly fond of her when she was his daughter. Perhaps this was how one could become rich. What was the use of being gentle and kind like the couple from the Tao family? It was no surprise that they were poor!
Therefore, Tan Jing felt that Tan Song’s words were definitely right. In one way, she had also figured out what Tan Song cared about the most and used it to stimulate him. It worked every time.
At the same time, the reputation that Tan Song cared about the most was also the most important to her. As long as Tan Song ran the Tan family well, she would always be the young lady of the Tan family. So what if there was no love in the family? She should be the same as Tan Song, selfish and heartless. She would fight for what she wanted through unscrupulous means. This was the secret to success!
Tan Jing’s thoughts were originally wrong. Her yearning for wealth and fame had clouded her mind. After being educated by Tan Song and Chen Yi, she yielded to the wrong path.
The principal had just advised them on the phone that they should pay more attention to her education, and that parents should set an example.
Tan Song and Chen Yi did educate her and set an example, but they were rotten to the core. What positive energy could they teach Tan Jing?
Their decadence of living a wealthy life had long eroded their souls, and they were still smug about the Tan family’s glory, not knowing that the prosperity of a family was hidden in the family’s education.
The saying “one cannot be rich for more than three generations” was well reflected in the Tan family. Unfortunately, the Tan family would probably be destroyed before it could be passed on to Tan Jing.
The three of them still did not know that danger was quietly approaching. They still did not know the immensity of heaven and earth and self-proclaimed themselves as wealthy families, thinking that they had the strength to control everything.
Tan Song stood up and said, “I will check on that principal again. Now that Director Wang has left, we don’t have anyone working for us in school. We have to think of another way.”
Tan Jing also thought of Director Wang and asked, “Dad, what should we do about Director Wang and Wei Ling?”
Tan Song frowned and asked, “What do you mean? Why do you care about two useless people? You’re still too young. You’re not good at using people, and you’re not ruthless enough. This is why you didn’t get it done!”
Tan Jing felt a little wrong. Her plan was flawless, but who knew that Tan Rou would be able to pull out that surveillance footage? She did not want to care about Director Wang and Wei Ling anymore, but she felt a little uncomfortable.
However, after listening to Tan Song’s words, that little bit of discomfort disappeared completely. That’s right, they were just useless people. Why were they so unlucky? It had nothing to do with her!
