Ms. Tan Is The Real Boss

As soon as Zhuang Liu went over, Tan Rou focused her attention on him. She pushed the crowd aside and came to Zhuang Liu’s side. She asked with a smile, “Third Brother, is there anything you want to eat? Do you like the cake?” Zhuang Liu liked the way Tan Rou treated him differently from the others. “Rourou, do you have any recommendations?”

One called him ‘Third Brother’ and the other replied her with ‘Xiao Rou’. This level of intimacy could not be achieved in just a day or two. It was obvious that they were close.

The people who came here today were either rich or noble. Naturally, many of them knew Zhuang Liu. When they saw Zhuang Liu and Tan Rou being so close, some of them quickly left.After all, the status of the Zhuang and Tao families was not something they could shake.

However, there were still some people who were hoping to get lucky. They felt that Zhuang Liu was disabled because he was in a wheelchair. The Tao family would not marry their daughter to a disabled person. Therefore, they still wanted their son to get close to Tan Rou and fight for the eldest daughter of the Tao family.

However, Tan Ron’s attention was all on Zhuang Liu. They had known each other for a long time, and there was an exceptional bond between them.

Tan Jing had been looking at Tan Rou. She was intensely jealous of Tan Rou and hated Tan Rou. The identity of the eldest daughter of the Tao family should have been hers, but now it had become Tan Ron’s. And Zhuang Liu, didn’t they say he was dying? Why wasn’t he dead?

Lu Qing stood at the side and looked at the dazzling girl on the stage. He originally wanted to go up and say a few words to Tan Rou, but there were too many people there. Moreover, Zhuang Liu had also gone over, so there was no chance for him to speak.

“Don’t you like Tan Rou?” Tan Jing quietly walked to Lu Qing’s side and said urgently, “Why don’t you go and snatch Tan Rou back? Look at how happy she is talking to Zhuang Liu now!”

She had to persuade Lu Qing to help her. If Lu Qing and Zhuang Liu fought over Tan Rou, things would be messed up. At that time, she would have a chance to win the love of the Tao family’s parents again.

When Lu Qing saw her coming over, he wanted to leave immediately, but Tan Jing blocked his way. Hence, he said coldly, “What exactly are you trying to say?”

“Go and get Tan Rou back! Now that Tan Rou has regained her status as the eldest daughter of the Tao family, if you get together with Tan Rou now, then your family’s status will be elevated.” Tan Jing said excitedly.

“No need.” Lu Qing rejected it.

“We can decide this with our own abilities. I won’t take that kind of shortcut.

Even if Tan Rou likes me, I won’t use her. Besides, she doesn’t like me.”

“Are you going to give her to Zhuang Liu? Why are you so cowardly?” Tan Jing asked. “I was blind in the past. Why would I like a coward like you?”

“It’s not that I want her to give up to Zhuang Liu, but that I can’t interfere between them.” Lu Qing corrected her, “Also, please don’t say that you’ve liked me in the past. I can’t afford to lose face.”

“You’re really a noble person! If it were me, I would do anything to snatch back the person I like,” Tan Jing said sarcastically.

“I’m not you. I won’t keep doing despicable things like you.” After Lu Qing finished speaking, he turned around and left.

Tan Jing called him from behind, but Lu Qing pretended not to hear her.

Lu Qing returned to his grandfather’s side. Although Old Master Lu did not hear their conversation, he could tell from Lu Qing’s expression that he was unhappy.

“Aren’t you going to say happy birthday to your good friend?” Old Master Lu asked.

Lu Qing smiled bitterly. “Grandfather, we’re not really good friends. We can only be considered ordinary friends. Perhaps we’re not even ordinary friends. After all, I always do things that she hates.”

“Tan Rou is a good girl.” Old Master Lu said regretfully, “But it’s impossible between you two.” He was just old and not blind. He could see clearly who was the one that caught Tan Ron’s eyes. Moreover, Zhuang Liu was indeed outstanding. Even sitting in a wheelchair, it could not hide his brilliance.

“I know.” Lu Qing said, “We’ll leave after we give the gifts. We won’t disturb them anymore.”

Old Master Lu nodded slightly. “Good child, I’m pleased you could think this way.

Since Lu Qing did not want to help Tan Jing, Tan Jing could only do it herself. She would never let Tan Rou celebrate her eighteenth birthday happily. She wanted this birthday to be the most unforgettable birthday for Tan Rou..
