69 069 Tao Qi is Back
No one had ever covered Tan Rou’s book. Wouldn’t this become one of Tan Rou’s regrets as well? Mrs. Tao understood that. After hearing how Tan Rou had a hard time in the Tan family, she was trying her best to make up for the love she had lost.
Tan Rou touched the book cover cherishingly.
Tan Jing, who had been watching from the side, was burning with jealousy when she saw this. Tan Jing recognized it at a glance. It was a book that Mother Tao had wrapped.
In the past, Mother Tao had also helped Tan Jing with things like these when she was young. However, when she grew up, Tan Jing felt childish and embarrassed. So, she no longer allowed Mother Tao to do this.
Tan Jing looked at the smile on Tan Rou’s face and sneered. As expected, she had found Tan Rou’s weakness.
“Tan Rou, oh tan Rou, you must be touched by the cheap love of the Tao family. Look at how happy you are. Do you think you finally have family love?”
Tan Jing’s lips curled up, “I shall break your dreams with my own hands. I’ll let you lose this love when you think you’re surrounded by love. The look on your face will be interesting when you’re hurt by the family that you’ve finally accepted!”
Tan Jing was immersed in her own fantasy as if she could already see Tan Rou’s disappointed and hurt expression. Unknowingly, it was time for class to end.
As soon as the bell rang, Tan Jing walked to Tan Rou and whispered, “I have something to tell you. Come out for a while.” There was a faint smugness on her face.
Tan Rou looked at Tan Jing in confusion. She felt that Tan Jing was indeed someone with a twisted mindset. Just a while ago, Tan Jing was crying so hard that she looked like she was going to kill Tan Rou but now, she cheered up so quickly. Did she come up with some twisted ideas again?
When the people in the class saw Tan Jing take the initiative to talk to Tan Rou after class, they all perked up their ears. The class was quiet, waiting to hear what the two would talk about.
Tan Rou didn’t move. “If you have something to say, say it. There’s no need to hide from others.” Tan Rou glanced at the gossiping gazes in the class and wasn’t even bothered by it.
Tan Jing didn’t want the rest of the class to hear what she was about to say. At this moment, the people in this class were no longer so loyal to her, and they were all watching Tan Rou and her.
If she said it in class, she would inevitably have some scruples to maintain her image. How could she stab Tan Rou sharp in the heart?
“It’s about the Tao family. Are you sure you want me to say it here?” Tan Jing whispered. “Aren’t you the most worried about them? Do you want others to be discussing your family here?”
Tan Rou raised her head and stared at Tan Jing. The Tao family was indeed her bottom line. She didn’t expect Tan Jing to react so quickly and grasp her weakness.
Tan Jing was confident enough and allowed Tan Rou to size him up.
Tan Rou sneered. “Fine, let’s go outside and talk.” She wanted to hear what other tricks Tan Jing had up her sleeve.
The two walked out of the classroom one after another, and the classroom exploded with chatter. Some people even guessed they had gone out to fight and whether they should go to the teacher.
Xu Yan frowned in his seat and looked at the back of the two people leaving. His eyes were filled with worry.
Tan Jing and Tan Rou found a remote warehouse with unused sports equipment. It was rare for anyone to be here.
Tan Rou stood still and turned to look at Tan Jing. “It should be fine here, right? Start talking.”
Tan Jing smiled. “You should know that you have a younger brother in the Tao family, right? Has he contacted you yet?”
Tan Rou didn’t expect Tan Jing to want to say this, and she immediately guessed Tan Jing’s thoughts.
Indeed, the Tao family had a younger son called Tao Qi. He was a mischievous child with a high IQ and had left home early to study abroad.
Tan Rou suddenly understood the reason why Tan Jing was so confident. In her previous life, Tao Qi liked Tan Jing, her sister. He didn’t acknowledge Tan Rou at all. When he returned home, he helped Tan Jing to make things difficult for Tan Rou.
Tan Rou smiled playfully. So, Tan Jing thought of this younger brother and wanted to use him to make Tan Rou feel uncomfortable.
Tan Jing had been waiting for a reaction from Tan Rou, but she didn’t expect Tan Rou to laugh after hearing it. She continued, “Tao Qi is the closest to me. He even called me a few days ago and said he’d be back soon. He wants to kick you out of the Tao family and let me continue to be his sister!”
Tan Rou wasn’t bothered about it. “So? Why are you telling me all this? If you really treat him as a little brother, then treat him well. The rest has nothing to do with me. If he really wants to kick me out of the Tao family, that’s our business. You can’t do anything about it. ”
Tan Jing didn’t give up. “Tao Qi is the most pampered child in the Tao family. They treat him like their most precious treasure. If he makes a scene at home, do you think the Tao family will side with him or you, the daughter they just found?”
