Ms. Tan Is The Real Boss

Tan Rou looked gentle but she smiled provocatively at Tan Jing and no longer looked at her. Instead, she and Li Li went to their seats.

The relationship between her and Tan Jing were already irreconcilable. So, there was no need to restrain her hatred for Tan Jing. If Tan Jing didn’t like her, then she could come and beat her up! If Tan Jing can’t do it, she was only worthy of her contempt.

However, as soon as Tan Rou sat down on her seat, she found that there was something wrong with it. She had clearly arranged the books before school ended yesterday, but now they were all in a mess, as if someone had flipped through them.

Tan Rou carefully looked through it and found that one of her textbooks was missing. Coincidentally, this book had just been listed as an important one by the teacher. She said that most of the contents for the exams would be in it and most of the important points of the recent mock exam were in it.

Tan Rou sneered. Another wave was rising before the other had ended. They were using such dirty tricks on her. Were they hoping that she would fail the exam?

Or was this just a small step in their scheme? It was a pity that they had to steal books instead of other things. Tan Rou hated trouble. She had her own unique learning method, all the knowledge was already in her mind. She was not willing to do anything unnecessary.

She didn’t know if they realized after they stole the book, but the book was actually blank. She had left the knowledge outline that she had arranged, based on her memory, back at home. Even if they had the ability to steal all those, it wouldn’t affect her at all.

However, Tan Rou felt that this kind of scheme was too naive. It might just be a small bait, and their ultimate goal wouldn’t be that simple. So, Tan Rou still cooperated and pretended to be a little flustered. She kept bending over and searching, but in fact, she was observing the reactions of the people around her.

Sure enough, she saw a hint of joy on Tan Jing’s face. Tan Rou remained calm and pretended to be angry as she loudly questioned, “Who took my book?”

...

The class was in an uproar. They looked at each other, not knowing what had happened. Only Tan Jing and a few girls who were close to her hid their unnatural expressions and pretended to be innocent, not saying a word.

Tan Rou threw the rest of her books on the table. Her face turned cold, as if she was really angry. “If you have the ability, do it in front of me. Don’t use such underhanded means! How am I supposed to study if you steal my books?”

Li Li Ran over worriedly. “Which other book is missing?”

Tan Rou sighed. “The one where the teacher said had important points, I clearly put it inside my drawer.”

Li Li also knew that this was definitely not a coincidence. She shouted anxiously, “Who is it that is so evil hearted?! ”

The rest of the class naturally didn’t know anything and could only watch the show curiously. A girl who was close to Tan Jing said indifferently, “Why are you shouting so early in the morning? It’s just a book that went missing. We can just look for it. Must it be that someone had stolen it? What do you take your classmates for?”

Li Li snorted coldly. “Chen Xiao, you’re just standing there and talking. The books were properly placed. Why was it that only one went missing?”

The girl named Chen Xiao wouldn’t accept being defeated. “Everyone’s books are in their seats. If they can’t keep their things properly, they shouldn’t be blaming it on the others. How would I know why was it only one that went missing? Don’t vent your anger on your classmates just because your book went missing!”

Li Li was so angry that she wanted to continue arguing, but then Tan Rou gently held Li Li’s hand, shook her head slightly, and said, “I would also hope that it wasn’t intentional. I didn’t vent my anger on any of you. I was just targeting one person here and I’m sure everyone knows that.”

The students who understood had already turned to Tan Jing. It was no longer a secret that Tan Rou and Tan Jing did not get along. Tan Rou’s words just now had a hidden meaning!

Tan Jing still maintained an innocent expression, as if she didn’t understand what Tan Rou was saying at all. She even turned back to comfort Tan Rou hypocritically. “Maybe you just misplaced. You can look for it again. That book is quite important for our next exam!”

...

Tan Rou glanced at Tan Jing and ignored her before looking away. Tan Jing’s expression was awkward for a moment, but she put on a gentle smile again, as if she was magnanimous enough to tolerate Tan Rou’s rudeness.
