Ch. 771..780
Chapter 771: 771 Drunken
Tonight’s wine was arranged by Zhuang Liu. He knew that the alcohol content of this red wine was very high, so he did not dare to let Tan Rou drink too much. However, when he first drank it, he would only smell the fruit fragrance and not the strong alcohol smell.
Tan Rou kept looking at the red wine bottle. She had never drunk red wine before. It was her first time drinking red wine and she felt that it tasted quite good. It was a pity that she was only allowed to drink a little.
After the meal, Zhuang Liu suddenly received a call from the company. They wanted him to deal with an urgent matter. Zhuang Liu did not like to answer the phone when he was with Tan Rou, but Tan Rou told him to focus on work. Zhuang Liu had no choice but to go to the study to deal with work first.
Tan Rou had a purpose for sending Zhuang Liu away. She had already seen where Zhuang Liu had put the rest of the wine. Now, she wanted to go over and secretly get the wine.
There was still more than half a bottle of wine left in the bottle. Tan Rou had only poured a glass at first, but she wanted to drink more after she finished it, so she poured another full glass. After drinking that glass, Tan Ron’s consciousness began to blur. She hugged the bottle and drank directly from the mouth of the bottle, finishing all the wine in one go.
Zhuang Liu quickly finished his work. “Rourou?” But when he came out, he didn’t see Tan Rou in the living room.
“Xiao Rou, where are you?” Zhuang Liu shouted a few times, but no one responded to him. “Did she go home?”
At this moment, Zhuang Liu heard the sound of bottles colliding in the kitchen. He was suddenly worried. Could there be rats in the house? He was living on the first floor, so it was easy for rats to enter.
He thought for a moment and felt that it was unlikely for a rat to enter. The only possibility was that Tan Rou was in the kitchen.
Zhuang Liu smiled and walked into the kitchen. “Rourou, are you in the kitchen?”
As soon as he entered, he saw Tan Rou sleeping soundly on the ground with the empty red wine bottle in her hand.
“Hey!” Zhuang Liu accepted his fate and carried Tan Rou up. He scolded, “1 already told you that the alcohol content of this wine is very high. I told you not to drink too much. In the end, you still drank secretly behind my back.” Now that you’re drunk, how are we going to carry out my arrangements?”
Tan Rou seemed to have heard Zhuang Liu’s words. She narrowed her eyes and said, “Third Brother, I’m so dizzy!”
Zhuang Liu rubbed his face against hers. “Of course you are! It would be strange if you weren’t after drinking so much wine.”
Tan Ron’s drinking habits were not very good after she was drunk. She grabbed Zhuang Liu’s shoulder and teased him. “Handsome guy, you’re so good-looking. Do you need me to love you?”
Zhuang Liu only felt a buzzing sound in his head, and his heartbeat sped up. “Rourou, please be quiet. If you continue to cause trouble, I can’t guarantee what I’ll do next.”
Tan Rou kissed Zhuang Liu’s lips. After that, she wiped her mouth. “Handsome boy, do you want to be my boyfriend? I promise to love you well.”
Zhuang Liu calmed himself down and replied in a low voice, “We’re already a couple.”
Tan Rou reached out and touched Zhuang Liu’s abs.” Handsome, your figure is really good! Let me touch your chest muscles again.”
Zhuang Liu only felt very thirsty. “Rourou, can you stop teasing me? If you dare to tease me again, I’ll do it with you right here and now.”
Tan Rou touched Zhuang Liu’s chest muscles and leaned close to his face.
“What did you just say? I didn’t hear you clearly.”
Zhuang Liu didn’t argue with a drunkard. He carried Tan Rou into the room and sent a message to the Tao family, telling them that Tan Rou would sleep at his place tonight. He promised that he wouldn’t do anything to Tan Rou.
After sending the message, Zhuang Liu kissed Tan Ron’s face again before going to the bathroom to take a cold shower to extinguish the desire that Tan Rou had aroused.
Zhuang Liu’s body was pressed against the cold wall. His heart felt as if it was scratched by a cat. When could he really do what he wants with her tonight?
Suddenly, the bathroom door opened and a drunk Tan Rou walked in. “It’s so hot. I’m sweating all over. 1 want to take a shower.”
After saying that, she began to take off her clothes.
Zhuang Liu was not the kind of person who would take advantage of others when they were in danger. He immediately wrapped a towel around himself and carried Tan Rou out. “I’ll turn on the air conditioner immediately. It won’t be hot in a while. You don’t have to shower tonight. Can you shower tomorrow?”
Tan Rou was still struggling. “I want to bathe tonight.”
“You must be a little demon sent by the heavens to temper me.” Zhuang Liu sighed..
Chapter 772: 772 Going to Be Late
Tan Ron finally fell asleep at midnight. Zhuang Liu looked at Tan Ron’s sleeping face and could not fall asleep at all. After thinking about it, he ran into the room to take a cold shower.
Zhuang Liu looked at himself in the mirror and couldn’t help but ask, “When will such a difficult day end?”
The next morning, Tan Ron slept until ten in the morning. She had drunk too much last night, so when she woke up this morning, her head hurt like it was about to explode.
“My head hurts!” Tan Rou said casually.
“Does your head still hurt?” Zhuang Liu, who was sleeping next to her, sat up and said, “Shall I give you a massage?”
Tan Rou usually slept alone and did not expect anyone to talk to her. When she saw Zhuang Liu sleeping next to her, she was stunned. “Why are you sleeping here?”
“Rourou, whose room is this?” Zhuang Liu asked with a smile.
Tan Rou glanced around the bedroom and realized that it was not her room at all. “This is your house? Then why am 1 here?”
“Don’t you remember that you drank too much last night?”
After Zhuang Liu’s reminder, Tan Ron’s memory suddenly came back. She remembered that she had ignored Zhuang Liu’s objection to drinking more wine last night. After drinking, she started to get drunk and rushed into Zhuang Liu’s bathroom to take a shower with him.
Tan Ron’s face turned red at the thought of this. She quickly lifted the blanket and rushed into the bathroom. “I’m going to wash up.”
Zhuang Liu knew that she would be embarrassed, so he didn’t say anything to make Tan Rou shy. He was afraid that he would scare her away early in the morning. However, it was getting late. The first two periods of her classes were already over.
“It’s over, it’s over, it’s over!” Tan Rou squatted on the floor of the bathroom in a daze. “Why would I do such a stupid thing? Looks like I can’t drink this wine in the future. If I drink again in the future, I’ll slap myself in the face.”
She stayed in the bathroom for more than ten minutes. Zhuang Liu came over and knocked on the door after washing up in the room next door. “Rourou, are you not done showering yet? You still have class this morning, right? Are you still going to class today?”
Tan Rou looked bitter. If she went to school now, she would definitely be late. Although she knew all the courses taught by the professor, this was not a reason for her to miss class.
“Of course I’m still going to class.” Tan Rou mustered up her courage and came out of the bathroom. “I’ll go right away!”
Zhuang Liu nodded. “Alright, I’ll drive you there.”
Tan Rou was too embarrassed to look into Zhuang Liu’s eyes. She lowered her head and said, “Then hurry up. I’m already late for the third period.”
Zhuang Liu said, “If you weren’t greedy, how could you be late? Besides, Your alcohol tolerance isn’t good at all. After getting drunk last night, you kept acting like a hooligan towards me. Not only did you touch my face, you even touched me all over. You even said that you will love me well. 1 wonder how Xiao Rou will do that?””
Tan Ron’s face was so red that it could bleed. She braced herself and kissed
Zhuang Liu’s cheek. “I love you just like this.”
Zhuang Liu was very dissatisfied. He hugged Tan Ron’s waist tightly and bit her lips. “No, you have to make it up to me.”
Tan Rou struggled. “Stop fooling around. I still have to go to school.”
“You’re already late anyway. It doesn’t matter.” As he spoke, Zhuang Liu started kissing Tan Rou.
Tan Rou knew that she was in the wrong, so she obeyed him. Seeing that the two of them were kissing more and more deeply, the doorbell of Zhuang Liu’s house suddenly rang.
Tan Rou quickly pushed Zhuang Liu away. “Your doorbell seems to be ringing. Go and take a look.”
Zhuang Liu was a little annoyed. Which idiot was interrupting his good time? Could it be Xiao Mo, that person who ruined the mood? If it really was Xiao Mo, he would fire him when he returned to the company today.
“I’m not going. 1 don’t care who he is.” Zhuang Liu continued to hug Tan Rou. “That’s not over yet. Let’s kiss for another five minutes.”
Tan Rou looked at the time. “We’ll kiss again in the future. I really have to go to school now.” She did not want to skip class for half a day.
Zhuang Liu followed behind her unhappily. “Let me send you to school.”
The annoying doorbell kept ringing, as if it wouldn’t stop until its owner opened the door.
Tan Rou was also a little curious. “Third Brother, are you meeting a friend today?”
“No,” Zhuang Liu said. “My phone was turned off. I think Xiao Mo is here..”
Chapter 773: 773 He Xi Is Back
Zhuang Liu went to open the door, and Tan Rou followed behind him. They all thought that the person who came was Xiao Mo, but they didn’t expect it to be a strange woman.
He Xi jumped up happily when she saw Zhuang Liu standing up. “Brother Xiao Liu, your leg really got better!”
Zhuang Liu did not know this person. He just felt that this woman was a little familiar. “Who are you? Who are you looking for?”
“I came to find you.” He Xi had a look of disbelief on her face. “Brother Xiao Liu, don’t you remember me? I’m He Xi! Your Little Sister Xiao Xi!”
When Zhuang Liu heard this, he frowned. Why did He Xi, this crazy girl, come back to China? Didn’t her parents forbid her from returning to the country?
“Oh.” Zhuang Liu’s attitude was very cold. “What do you want?”
He Xi pushed her luggage inside and then came over to carry Zhuang Liu. “Brother Xiao Liu, I really miss you. I miss you every minute and second when I’m overseas.”
Tan Rou pulled Zhuang Liu over without batting an eyelid. She pushed away He Xi, who was about to pounce on Zhuang Liu. “Just say what you want to say. Don’t touch me.”
He Xi saw a woman in Zhuang Liu’s house. She asked unhappily, “Brother Xiao Liu, who is this woman? Why is she in your house?”
“She’s my girlfriend,” Zhuang Liu introduced. “Why do you think she’s in my house?”
He Xi didn’t believe it. Her aunt clearly said that Zhuang Liu didn’t have a girlfriend. How could he have one now? Zhuang Liu must be joking with her.
“Oh, 1 know.” He Xi seemed to have understood something. “This must be Brother Xiao Liu’s personal assistant. 1 heard that some personal assistants here would have to live in their owners ‘homes. Actually, there are also living assistants overseas. Brother Xiao Liu, don’t be nervous. I won’t care about her.”
After saying that, He Xi was about to pull her suitcase in.
Tan Rou used her foot to block the suitcase. “Don’t you know that Xiao Mo is the only personal assistant that Zhuang Liu has?” she sneered.
“Xiao Mo, I’m a man, and I’m a woman. I’m not a personal assistant. I’m Mo’s girlfriend, and we’re getting engaged soon.”
“If it weren’t for that incident, we would be engaged now,” Zhuang Liu said regretfully.
Tan Rou knew what Zhuang Liu was talking about, but it was not too late yet. They had plenty of opportunities to hold an engagement party in the future. When the time came, they had to hold a grand one to let everyone know they were in love.
He Xi’s eyes widened. “Brother Xiao Liu, you must be teasing me, right? Are you blaming me for not coming back after so many years? I wanted to return too, but my parents won’t let me return.”
“Since your parents didn’t allow you to return, you should go overseas as soon as possible. You haven’t been in the country for so many years. You’re not part of the society here. You might as well go back quickly.”
He Xi was very upset. “It wasn’t easy for me to convince Dad and Mom to let me return. How could Brother Xiao Liu chase me away?”
“I’m just reminding you in a friendly way,” Zhuang Liu replied. “It’s your business where you want to be, but please don’t stay at my door.”
“Then why can she stay at your house?” He Xi seemed to have lost her memory. “Quickly chase her out.”
Tan Rou smiled. “Miss, have you lost your memory? Didn’t 1 say it? We’re engaged. Where should I stay if 1 don’t stay at his house?”
When He Xi heard Tan Ron’s words, she felt that this woman must be a bad woman who fancied Zhuang Liuqian. “I don’t agree with the both of you getting married!”
“Tsk! Are you a marriage officiant?” Tan Rou sneered. “Why would I need your agreement?”
“You!” He Xi was so angry that her expression was distorted. She immediately turned to Zhuang Liu and said sadly, “Brother Xiao Liu, 1 missed you so much, so 1 took a taxi here as soon as I got off the plane. 1 didn’t even sip water. Do you have anything to eat at home?” Let me go in and eat something.”
“No, I haven’t.” Zhuang Liu stuffed a fridge full of food but told He Xi that he had nothing to eat at home. “I’m sorry, I don’t know how to cook, so I have nothing to eat at home. Moreover, there was no water supply this morning. If you come in, you won’t even be able to drink water..”
Chapter 774: 774 Your Bride
He Xi didn’t believe it. She stretched her neck and looked into the room. She saw the fruits on the table in the living room and said, “Brother Xiao Liu, aren’t there fruits? I need to eat something to fill my stomach. 1 don’t ask for too much.”
Tan Rou turned around and looked. There were indeed many fruits on the table in the living room that she had eaten last night. However, those fruits were hers. Why did she have to give them to this strange woman before her?
“I’m sorry. That’s the fruit my girlfriend wants to eat. I can’t share it with you. If you want to eat fruit, go home and eat it,” Zhuang Liu refused.
“Brother Xiao Liu, why are you so cold to me now?” He Xi was very sad. “Have you forgotten what you said when you were young?”
Zhuang Liu was confused. “What did 1 say when I was young?”
“You said you wanted to marry me when you were young! You promised my parents in front of your grandfather that I would be your bride in the future. Have you forgotten?” He Xi said excitedly.
Zhuang Liu tried hard to recall the past, and he recalled this matter in the deepest part of his mind, but he did not say that then.
At that time, He Xi’s parents were interested in a marriage alliance with the Zhuang family. Coincidentally, He Xi and Zhuang Liu were about the same age, so He Xi’s parents suggested to Zhuang Liu’s parents that they should arrange a marriage alliance for them.
At that time, Zhuang Liu was only seven years old. He was already very opinionated. He did not want to settle his marriage then, so he said, “What I say now doesn’t count. If I want to marry Sister Xiao Xi, I will propose to you when we’re older.”
After that, He Xi had always considered herself Zhuang Liu’s fiancee. Zhuang Liu corrected her several times, but He Xi was still like this. Zhuang Liu did not want to bother her anymore, so he did not mention this matter anymore.
Fortunately, he did not agree to He Xi’s request. Otherwise, Zhuang Liu would not know how to explain it to Tan Rou.
“He Xi, if 1 remember correctly, you didn’t say those words back then, right? I said that if I wanted to marry you in the future, 1 would go to your house to propose marriage. But 1 have no intention of marrying you now. There’s no meaning in saying that.”
He Xi did not care about this. She was determined to be Zhuang Liu’s fiancee. No matter what others said, she would not change this concept.
Speaking of which, it was all her aunt’s fault. If Han Min had told her earlier that Zhuang Liu’s leg had recovered, she would have returned to the country long ago.
When He Xi went abroad, she and Zhuang Liu were not yet old enough to get engaged, so they did not get married. Later, Zhuang Liu was poisonous, and he became disabled. He Xi had returned to the country to visit Zhuang Liu once. After discovering that Zhuang Liu is about to die, she returns overseas with her parents.
Although He Xi liked Zhuang Liu very much, she didn’t want to marry someone who was about to die. They could continue to be together now that Zhuang Liu’s body had recovered.
“I don’t care!” Xi started to throw a tantrum. “Anyway, 1 want to be with you. You guys should break up quickly!”
After Tan Rou heard Zhuang Liu’s words, she looked at the unreasonable He Xi and said impatiently, “Miss He, have you been overseas for too long? Don’t you understand what we’re saying? Third Brother has already made it very clear. We have been together for a long time. No matter your agreement with him in the past, it doesn’t count anymore. Please leave, or I will call security.”
He Xi sneered. “Who do you think you are? How dare you order me around?”
Tan Rou didn’t want to waste her breath on He Xi. She returned to the living room. “Third Brother, get rid of this nonsense. 1 still have to go to class.”
Zhuang Liu nodded. “Yes, I’ll let her go immediately.”
“You actually called me nonsense?!” He Xi felt her brain buzzing. “Brother Xiao Liu, do you think I’m troublesome too?”
Zhuang Liu said, “He Xi, I don’t want to say that you’re troublesome, but what you’re doing now has affected my normal life. Therefore, I want you to leave this place and stop disturbing us.”
“Brother Xiao Liu, the person you like can only be me.” He Xi patted her chest and said, “We are the closest people. Have you forgotten? You even hugged me when we were young.. I’m the person you like the most!”
Chapter 775: 775 Crazy
Zhuang Liu frowned. “He Xi, you’re not the person I like the most. Rourou is the person I like the most. I can’t be with you because Rourou is my future wife.”
Although Tan Rou was sitting in the living room eating cherries and did not seem to care about the situation here, her attention had always been there. She could hear everything Zhuang Liu and He Xi was saying.
He Xi looked at Tan Rou, who was leisurely eating fruits in the living room. The flames of jealousy and anger in her heart were burning fiercely. It was all because of this woman. If she had not seduced Zhuang Liu, Zhuang Liu would never have broken the agreement between them.
‘Kill her! As long as 1 kill her, Zhuang Liu will be able to return to my side.’ He Xi thought so.
“Brother Xiao Liu, I’m really tired and hungry. Can 1 go in and eat something?” He Xi pretended to look pitiful. “You won’t bear to see me starve to death, right?”
Zhuang Liu hesitated for a moment. Just as he hesitated, He Xi quickly came to the living room. She suddenly stood in front of Tan Rou and stared at her.
“Why are you looking at me?” Tan Rou asked, holding the cherries in her hand.
He Xi picked up the crystal plate with the fruits and smashed it on Tan Ron’s head. Tan Rou reacted very quickly. She placed her hands on the back of the sofa and quickly jumped behind it.
When Zhuang Liu saw He Xi throw the crystal plate at Tan Rou, his blood turned cold. “Rourou, are you okay?”
Tan Rou crushed the cherry in her hand to express her anger. “It’s okay. She can’t hurt me yet.”
Zhuang Liu was furious. “He Xi, what do you think you’re doing?!”
“Brother Xiao Liu, I’m helping you. This vixen seduced you. If you get together with her, she’ll eat you up in the future.” He Xi chuckled, and a scary smile appeared on her face. “Don’t worry. As long as I kill her, we can be safe together in the future.”
Tan Rou looked at He Xi’s smile and thought carefully about what He Xi had said. Then, she came to a conclusion. “Does she have a mental illness?”
Zhuang Liu nodded. “She does. Her parents brought her abroad to treat her mental illness but now it seems that her treatment is useless. She’s still as crazy as ever.”
Mental patients hated it when others said that they were mentally ill. He Xi was the same. As soon as she heard that she was mentally ill, she became even crazier. “I’m not crazy!”
Tan Rou clicked her tongue and said to Zhuang Liu, “She has already become like this. Are her parents still at ease with her returning to the country alone?”
“I’m not too sure about this. I’ll have to call them again to ask about the situation after 1 arrest her. He Xi is my second aunt’s niece. My second uncle and second aunt must have interfered in her return.”
Tan Rou could roughly understand what had happened. “1 think your second uncle and aunt arranged for her to leave.”
Zhuang Liu nodded. “Yes, that should be the case. If my second uncle and second aunt weren’t involved, He Xi’s parents wouldn’t be at ease letting her come back.”
He Xi kept emphasizing that she wasn’t sick. “Brother Xiao Liu, I’m really not sick. As long as you marry me, we’ll live peacefully and happily. Brother Xiao Liu, don’t leave me, I really love you!”
Tan Rou looked at Zhuang Liu with some heartache. “You’re so pitiful. There’s actually a psychopath who likes you. Moreover, this psychopath is violent and would murder other people for you.”
“I’m not crazy!” He Xi, who had been very pitiful just now, immediately flew into a rage when she heard Tan Rou say that she was crazy. “You vixen! You seduced someone else’s husband, I’m going to beat you to death!”
Tan Rou said, “I’ve seen shameless people before, but I’ve never seen someone as shameless as you. He already said that he doesn’t like you. Why are you still calling him your husband? Ask Brother Zhuang Liu if he has agreed to be with you.”
He Xi turned to Zhuang Liu. “Brother Xiao Liu, you love me, right?”
Zhuang Liu didn’t want to bother with her. He turned on his phone and called Xiao Mo. “Get someone here now! At least two of them! They have to be strong enough to suppress a crazy woman. Get them here quick!”
“I don’t want to see a doctor! I’m not sick!” He Xi was very resistant to doctors.. She was clearly not sick, so why did everyone want her to see a doctor?
Chapter 776: 776 You’re Not Welcome
“Whether you’re sick or not has nothing to do with me!” Zhuang Liu couldn’t take it anymore. When you calm down, go back overseas immediately. This isn’t a place for you to behave atrociously!”
However, He Xi had a very good reason. “Even if you send me overseas now, I will be back in two days. I didn’t come back on my own this time. The Fragrance Association invited me back.”
In other words, He Xi came back this time because she had work to do.
Tan Ron’s interest was piqued. Were the leaders of the local Fragrance Association so muddle-headed? They actually dared to invite a lunatic back. Wasn’t he afraid that He Xi wouldn’t be able to concoct a suitable incense and smash their association?
“Since you’re back for work, they should be able to arrange a place for you, right? So why are you staying here?” Tan Ron asked.
The Fragrance Association had indeed arranged a new place for He Xi to live. After all, the house she used to live in had not been lived in for a long time. However, He Xi rejected the arranged accommodation. She said that she had a fiance in the country and would stay at her fiance’s place.
“This is Brother Xiao Liu’s home. Of course I have to live here. If 1 don’t live here, this home will be occupied by a vixen like you.” He Xi was very hostile to Tan Rou. “B*tch! Shameless vixen!”
Tan Rou crossed her arms and said coldly, “Please watch your mouth. Don’t call me a vixen. Otherwise, you’ll regret having a mouth!”
He Xi immediately turned around and complained to Zhuang Liu, “Brother Xiao Liu, look at this bad woman. She wants me to shut up. Hurry up and chase her out. She’s not welcome in this house.”
“You’re not welcome in this house.” Zhuang Liu’s tone was also very cold. “I’m going to kick you out as soon as they arrive. If you don’t leave now, I’m going to call the police. Even if you’re sick, the police will take you away.”
“I’m not sick!” He Xi kept emphasizing that she wasn’t sick. “Brother Xiao Liu, do you like her because she looks good?”
He Xi’s words made Tan Rou think, why did she like Zhuang Liu? It seemed that she couldn’t explain it clearly either. She liked him and there was no other reason.
“No.” Zhuang Liu looked at Tan Rou with a faint smile on his face. “Even if she didn’t look like this, I would still like her. She’s the person I love and the person I’ll protect for the rest of my life.”
“Don’t say this in front of outsiders,” Tan Rou said softly.
He Xi looked at the interaction between Tan Rou and Zhuang Liu and felt disgusted. This b*tch seduced Zhuang Liu just because she was pretty. She couldn’t let this b*tch succeed. She would immediately cut this batch’s face so that Zhuang Liu wouldn’t like her.
Zhuang Liu looked at the time and said impatiently, “Why isn’t the doctor here yet?”
Tan Rou leaned against the wall quietly. Since she was already late, she wasn’t in a hurry to go to school.
He Xi did not dare to scold Zhuang Liu, so she vented her anger on Tan Rou. “You b*tch, you must have asked Brother Xiao Liu to call the doctor over. As long as I’m taken away by them, you can be with Brother Xiao Liu, right?”
Tan Rou stood there without saying anything, but her gaze became colder and colder.
When He Xi saw that Tan Rou was silent, she thought that she was guilty, so she continued, “Brother Xiao Liu and I grew up together. When we were young, we were inseparable. Even when we slept, we would sleep on the same bed. He said that when I grew up, he would marry me. So Brother Liu is mine. He was mine in the past and will be mine in the future. Get lost!”
Zhuang Liu felt his head hurt. What nonsense was He Xi talking about?
“Xiao Rou, believe me. I’ve never slept with her. I was a germaphobe when 1 was young. 1 would never let anyone sleep with me.” Zhuang Liu explained to Tan Rou nervously, afraid that Tan Rou would misunderstand him.
Tan Rou smiled and said, “How can you take the words of a lunatic seriously? Many lunatics have delusions. They fantasize about what they have done, but in fact, she has never experienced it at all.”
Zhuang Liu heaved a sigh of relief. “Rourou, we’ll send her away after the doctors get here. Wait a little longer.”
Tan Rou nodded without saying anything..
Chapter 777: 777 I Want to Kill Her
“Brother Liu, why did you give me a sedative?” He Xi had a look of disbelief on her face. She pointed at Tan Rou. “Did she ask you to inject me with it? This b*tch, I’m going to kill her! After 1 kill her, we can be together!”
He Xi suddenly rushed into the kitchen. When she came out, she had a kitchen knife in her hand. The kitchen knife was newly bought by Zhuang Liu. The blade was very sharp. If it was cut, it would cause serious injuries.
“I want to kill her! I’m going to kill her!” He Xi repeated this sentence as she raised her kitchen knife and rushed towards Tan Rou.
Tan Ron’s eyes became very cold. She moved her wrists a few times. If He Xi dared to rush over, she would attack.
Zhuang Liu picked up the pillow on the sofa and threw it at He Xi. Then, when she was blocking the pillow, he snatched the knife from her hand. He Xi held the knife very tightly, and Zhuang Liu did not dare to use too much force. Whether it hurt He Xi or Zhuang Liu, it would not be a good thing.
Tan Rou couldn’t stand it anymore. She didn’t know how long He Xi would continue to make a fuss like this. Moreover, He Xi was holding a knife in her hand. It was fine if she hurt herself, but if she hurt Zhuang Liu, Tan Ron’s heart would ache.
While Zhuang Liu and He Xi were fighting for the kitchen knife, Tan Rou quietly slipped to the storage rack. There was a first aid kit and acupuncture items on it. In this situation, she needed to give He Xi an injection.
He Xi was still crying. “Brother Xiao Liu, let go of me, or I’ll hurt you!”
“You knew you would hurt me, why didn’t you let go?” Zhuang Liu said angrily.
“No, I want to kill that b*tch who seduced you!” He Xi’s illness started acting up again, but she did not see Tan Rou in the room. “Hmm? Where did that b*tch go?”
“I’ve said it before. Please watch your mouth. Stop calling me that.” Tan Rou quietly came behind them, one hand strangling He Xi’s neck, the other hand ready to give He Xi acupuncture.
The feeling of suffocation made He Xi’s face turn red. Her hands gradually lost strength. Zhuang Liu quickly took the kitchen knife and threw it on the ground.
Tan Rou sneered. “It’s so unlucky to meet someone like you so early in the morning.” She ruthlessly pricked He Xi’s head with a needle.
“Have a good sleep. When you wake up, it’s time for you to get lost!”
He Xi rolled her eyes and fell to the floor angrily. She fell quite heavily, but Tan Rou and Zhuang Liu did not feel sorry for her. A lunatic who broke into someone’s house and wanted to kill should be locked up in a mental hospital.
“I’m going to school,” Tan Rou said as she wiped her hands with a wet tissue.
“I’ll drive you there,” Zhuang Liu said.
Tan Rou glanced at He Xi who was lying on the ground. “If you send me to school, what about this person?”
Zhuang Liu looked at He Xi with disgust and said, “She can’t wake up now. I’ll find a rope to tie her up immediately. I won’t let her run out or make trouble at home. Xiao Mo is bringing the doctor over soon. Leave the rest to him.”
Tan Rou was quite satisfied with Zhuang Liu’s attitude. If Zhuang Liu said that he wanted to stay and accompany He Xi, then Tan Rou felt that her love with Zhuang Liu could end. No girl would accept that her boyfriend had an ambiguous relationship with another girl. He Xi was Zhuang Liu’s childhood sweetheart. Even if He Xi was crazy, Tan Rou did not want Zhuang Liu to pay too much attention to He Xi, even if he pitied He Xi.
Zhuang Liu took the car keys. When he passed by He Xi, he did not even have the intention of putting He Xi on the sofa. He walked straight past He Xi.
Tan Rou looked at He Xi. After she quieted down, she had time to think about what He Xi had said. He Xi had come back to participate in the activities of the Fragrance Association. Tan Rou had also joined the association, but she had not been there for many years. She did not know what the association had become.
In a few days, she would have to go to the Fragrance Association to take a look. If the association released a new product, she could buy the copyright and pass it over to her aunt. Third aunt would definitely give her a share.
“What are you thinking about? Why are you so engrossed?” Zhuang Liu saw that Tan Rou was silent, so he asked, “Are you thinking about He Xi? I really have nothing to do with her!”
Chapter 778: 778 What Happened
“I wasn’t thinking about her.” Tan Rou lied. “I just looked at the time and realized that 1 was already late, so 1 was very unhappy.”
Zhuang Liu knew that Tan Rou was a person who paid great attention to time. She had never skipped class. Today, she had skipped two and a half periods. It was a stain on her student life. It was normal for her to be unhappy.
“I’ll drive faster and try to get to school earlier.” Zhuang Liu stepped on the accelerator and rushed to school.
By the time Tan Rou arrived at school, the second period was already halfway through. It was time for a break. She didn’t dare to enter from the front door and quietly slipped in from the back door.
Li Li and Tian Tian brought her books over. They sat in their seats. One was talking while the other was lying on the table.
“What’s wrong with Tiantian?” Tan Rou asked as she sat down quietly.
Li Li was shocked by her. “Rourou, you’re here?!”
Tan Rou made a ‘shh’ gesture. “Lower your voice. Don’t let the professor hear you.”
Li Li said, “It’s okay. The professor went to the office to get some water. He didn’t take attendance today. The professor from the previous class didn’t take attendance either, but he assigned a lot of homework. I’ll send it to you later.”
“Thank you, Li Li.” Tan Rou nodded.
Tian Tian was still lying on the table, her eyes closed as she whined.
“What happened to her?” Tan Rou asked.
Li Li chuckled and placed her hand on Tian Tian’s back. “I don’t know what’s wrong with her either. She wouldn’t tell me even if 1 asked her. However, last night, Brother Tao carried her back and she didn’t want to let go, so Brother Tao stayed with her in the bedroom for the whole night.”
“What?” Tan Ron’s unhappiness in the morning had completely dissipated. “Did my brother say anything this morning?” she asked curiously.
“No, 1 haven’t.” Li Li shook her head. “He didn’t even change his clothes when he came out of Tian Tian’s room this morning. He was still wearing the clothes from last night.”
“Then what happened between them last night?” Tan Rou really wanted to know. Last night, Tian Tian had drunk too much. Could it be that Tian Tian had also drunk too much and acted like a hooligan like her?
Tian Tian suddenly sat up. With two huge dark circles under her eyes, she said to Tan Rou, “Nothing happened between us last night. I fell asleep after I got drunk.”
Tan Rou didn’t think that her big brother would take advantage of others when they were in danger. “Why is he in your room?” she asked.
Tian Tian covered her face and said, “After I got drunk, I grabbed him and refused to let go. He couldn’t stop me, so he had to sleep with me for a night. However, he didn’t sleep on the bed. Instead, he took a stool and lay on the side of the bed. When he woke up in the morning, half of his body was numb. Although he didn’t say that his body was numb, 1 could still see that his movements were very stiff.”
“How could my big brother let you drink so much? He doesn’t even know how to stop them for you. He’s not a gentleman at all,” Tan Rou spoke up for her friend.
Tian Tian thought that Tan Rou didn’t see Luo Ya making things difficult for them, so she lied. “It’s not like that. I was the one who wanted to drink. At that time, Brother Tao Zhi was talking to someone else, so 1 secretly drank.”
Tan Rou was stunned. She was also present last night. At that time, it was Luo Ya who made Tian Tian drink to make things difficult for her. How did it become Tian Tian who secretly drank?
“Is that really the case?” Li Li was a little confused. “You’re too bold. How could you drink so much at the banquet? What if you meet someone with bad intentions?!”
Tian Tian smiled foolishly. “If 1 meet a bad person, Brother Tao Zhi will definitely protect me.”
Tan Rou recalled the scene from last night and couldn’t help but feel a little angry. Her elder brother was a grown man, yet he needed a little girl to drink white wine to help him settle things. It was really too useless.
Tan Ron’s heart ached for Tian Tian at the thought of this. She pressed her hand on Tian Tian’s temple. “Let me give you a massage.”
Tian Tian didn’t object. She leaned comfortably on the table. Enjoying the massage that Tan Rou was giving her.
Although Tian Tian looked like she was enjoying it, her heart was in a mess. What happened in the morning was deeply imprinted in her mind, and she also remembered what Tao Zhi said to her.
“If you care about us sleeping in the same room last night, then i’ll take responsibility for it.” Tao Zhi’s voice still rang in her head..
Chapter 779: 779 Tao Zhi Is Not Coming
Tian Tian was stunned. She didn’t want Tao Zhi to be responsible for this at all. Moreover, she was the one who asked Tao Zhi to stay with her last night. Tao Zhi sat by the bed and accompanied her all night. When she woke up in the morning, not only did she not thank him, but she also kept a distance from him. Tian Tian thought that Tao Zhi would hate her.
When Tan Rou arrived, it was already very late. A class only lasted 45 minutes. After class, they went home.
Tian Tian was very nervous. What was she going to say to Tao Zhi later? Was she thanking him for sleeping with her last night? But why did this sentence sound so strange?
“Tiantian, why are you distracted?” Li Li waved her hand in front of Tian Tian’s eyes. “Rourou asked you what fruit you wanted for lunch. Did you hear that?”
Tian Tian came back to her senses. “Ah? 1 don’t mind having any.”
Li Li felt that something was wrong with Tian Tian. “Tiantian, are you still feeling uncomfortable? Why don’t you come to class in the afternoon and rest at home for half a day?”
Tian Tian didn’t want to rest at home. If she did, she might run into Tao Zhi. Tao Zhi had been staying here for the past few days. Even if it was at night, he would stay over and even have breakfast with them in the morning.
However, he didn’t have breakfast with them this morning. When Tian Tian finished washing up and went downstairs, Tao Zhi had already gone to work.
“My condition is much better. I’ll be fine after taking a nap at noon.” Tian Tian said.
Tan Rou was sending a message to Tao Zhi, asking him what had happened in the morning and why Tian Tian was so listless.
Tao Zhi said that nothing had happened and instructed Tan Rou to take good care of Tian Tian and prescribe some medicine for her to sober up.
Tan Rou frowned. She felt that something terrible must have happened between Tian Tian and her brother. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have such an attitude.
However, Tao Zhi was not at home.
“Hmm? Isn’t Big Brother Tao coming over for lunch today?” Li Li looked at the bowl and chopsticks on the table and felt a little strange.
“Hasn’t he been eating here for the past few days?”
“Eldest Young Master said that there’s an important project in the company,” Aunt Zhou replied. “He’ll be staying in the company for the next few days. He won’t be back for dinner.”
“When will Brother Tao Zhi come back?” Tian Tian asked subconsciously.
Aunt Zhou shook her head. “Miss Tian Tian, I can’t interfere with Eldest Young Master’s matters. If you want to know, you can send him a message directly.”
Tian Tian sat down in her seat dejectedly. “Oh, It’s nothing. I was just asking casually. You don’t have to mind me.”
This afternoon, Aunt Zhou had made many of their favorite dishes. One of them was fried prawns, which was Tian Tian’s favorite, but she did not eat any more after eating one.
Tan Rou picked up another one for her. “Tian Tian, this prawn is quite delicious. Why aren’t you eating anymore?”
Tian Tian didn’t have an appetite. She remembered that Tao Zhi also liked this fried prawn dish very much. “Maybe I drank too much last night and didn’t feel well. I don’t want to eat such greasy food now.”
Tan Rou picked up the prawns and said, “I’ll ask Aunt Zhou to be more careful when she cooks next time.”
“No no…. It’s fine.” Tian Tian didn’t want to trouble Aunt Zhou. “Aunt Zhou’s cooking is very delicious. I like it very much. She doesn’t need to change anything.”
“Maybe it’s not the problem with the vegetables, but the problem with the people.” Li Li sighed.
“Is it because the young master didn’t come back for dinner?” Aunt Zhou asked.
Tian Tian lowered her head and didn’t speak.
Aunt Zhou noticed the unusual atmosphere between them, so she said, “Eldest Young Master left in a hurry this morning. He didn’t even have time to change his clothes. Moreover, he didn’t bring any change of clothes. If he stays in the company for a few days, he might stink.”
Tian Tian was very worried. “Can you bring over some clothes for him to change?”
Tan Rou said, “Of course, but Aunt Zhou is already so old. It’s not suitable for her to run around outside. Although our class in the afternoon is at 4:00,1 have to do have a meeting before that. I wouldn’t be free to do so.”
“I have to attend a club activity in the afternoon. 1 have to go now. I don’t have time either.” Li Li said immediately.
“This…” Tian Tian was a little troubled. Was she going to face Tao Zhi?
At this moment, Aunt Zhou said, “Oh my, Eldest Young Master always forgets to eat when he was busy with work.. 1 wonder if he has eaten today?”
Chapter 780: 780 Misunderstanding
When she heard that Tao Zhi might not have eaten, Tian Tian could not sit still anymore. She said to Aunt Zhou, “Aunt Zhou, do you still have more of these fried prawns? I’ll go and bring some clothes to Brother Tao Zhi later. I’ll also bring him some food.”
After she finished speaking, Tian Tian realized what she had just said. She hurriedly waved her hand and said, “I didn’t say that I was going to send him food. 1 was just worried that he hadn’t eaten.”
Tan Rou and the others were all looking at her. Tian Tian’s mind was in a mess. She began to explain incoherently that she wanted to give Tao Zhi something. “Brother Tao Zhi usually takes good care of me. He buys me delicious snacks and even drives me to school, so 1 wanted to give him some clothes to thank him properly.”
Tan Rou could tell that Tian Tian was very nervous. She didn’t want her future sister-in-law to be anxious, so she said, “Tian Tian, 1’11 leave this difficult task to you. Send my regards to my brother.”
Tian Tian nodded lightly. “Alright.” Her ears were already red. If Tan Rou and the others still didn’t believe her, she would have to swear to prove that she really didn’t mean anything else.
Aunt Zhou prepared the things she wanted to send in advance, then packed them into boxes and asked Tian Tian to send them over.
Tan Rou had wanted to arrange for a chauffeur to send Tian Tian off, but Tian Tian did not agree. She could just take a taxi there and not bother the Tao family’s chauffeur to pick her up.
Under her insistence, Tan Rou had no choice but to give up on this idea. “Then be careful. Send me a message when you reach the company.”
“I’m not a three-year-old child anymore. 1 won’t get lost,” Tian Tian said with a smile.
However, Tian Tian had overestimated the transportation facilities here. After waiting for a while, there was no taxi coming, nor was there any online taxi service. Tian Tian didn’t want to trouble Tan Rou now, so she walked a long way to the intersection outside to hail a taxi.
“Tiantian, why are you here?” A car stopped beside Tian Tian. Yuan Ze rolled down the window and asked with concern, “Where are you going?” 1’11 send you off.”
Tian Tian was too embarrassed to let Yuan Ze send her off. “It’s alright, I’ll just take a taxi.”
Yuan Ze said, “This area is undergoing reconstruction. There are very few taxis coming here. If 1 don’t bring you, you might not even get a taxi until dark.”
Tian Tian didn’t go out much, so she didn’t know that the area was undergoing Urban area reconstruction. “Ah, then what should we do?”
Yuan Ze smiled. “Silly girl, 1 already said that I’ll offer you a ride. Didn’t you hear me?”
Tian Tian hesitated for a moment before finally choosing to get into Yuan Ze’s car. “Thank you, Brother Yuan Ze.”
“Where are you going?” Yuan Ze asked her.
Tian Tian reported a place.
Yuan Ze felt that it was a coincidence. “I’m going to Jingtai Building too. I can give you a lift on the way.”
Hearing that Yuan Ze was also going to Jingtai Building, Tian Tian’s mood was no longer as heavy. “Thank you, Brother Yuan Ze.”
“What are you going to there for?” Yuan Ze started the car and asked.
Tian Tian didn’t want to say that she was there to deliver clothes and lunch to Tao Zhi. “Do you remember Tan Rou?”
Of course, Yuan Ze remembered Tan Rou. He had never seen such a capable young lady, so he had a deep impression of her. “I remember.”
“I’m staying at her house now. The auntie at home is occupied today, so she asked me to send something to Tan Ron’s brother.” Tian Tian said.
Yuan Ze said unhappily, “Why are they asking you to do it?”
“I was the one who wanted to go,” Tian Tian said. “He has helped me a lot in the past. I should help him too.”
Yuan Ze liked this about Tian Tian. “Tian Tian is such a kind little girl.”
Since Yuan Ze was also going to enter the Jingtai Building, the two of them went in together. Tian Tian had a lot of things with her, so Yuan Ze helped her carry some of them.
From Yuan Ze’s angle, he could see the top of Tian Tian’s head. He noticed that there was a very small flower on Tian Tian’s head, so he reached out to help her remove it. She did not expect the flower to be so hard that it got stuck in her hair.
Hence, Yuan Ze asked Tian Tian to stop and carefully helped her remove the flower on her head. The two of them were very close to each other. From the side, it looked like Yuan Ze was stroking Tian Tian’s head. They seemed very intimate.
After Tao Zhi received Tan Ron’s message, he waited for Tian Tian downstairs. However, when he saw Tian Tian, he also saw her having intimate contact with another man.
It turned out that Tian Tian didn’t agree to his request this morning because she already had someone else in her heart..
