168 168 I miss you
Li Li was eager for gossip. “Dear Tan Rou! Something’s not right! Quickly tell the truth! Who is it?”
Tan Rou put away her phone. “Don’t talk nonsense. I’m just replying to my little brother’s text message.”
Li Li smiled evilly. “Do you have to smile like that when replying to your brother’s text message? You’re still lying to me!”
The two girls played around for a while and their mood gradually lightened up.
In the afternoon, Tan Rou took the exam as usual. Wei Ling was gone after being called by the princ.i.p.al and her seat was left empty. Tan Rou just glanced at it indifferently and didn’t think about it anymore.
The princ.i.p.al would have followed the school’s rules and regulations. Wei Ling might not have the chance to take the exam or even stay in the school. She did not know how Tan Jing would explain this to the Wei family.
However, Tan Rou didn’t want to worry about this now. For the rest of the afternoon, Tan Rou changed from her casual style in the morning and became serious.
The ballpoint pen spun a few times on her fingertips. She lowered her eyes and quickly answered the paper.
Madam Li was still the invigilator of this Exam Hall. From a distance, she looked at Tan Rou and felt that something was different. Unable to control her curiosity, she walked closer and saw that Tan Rou’s answering speed was twice as fast as the others. She answered many questions with ease and without using much time.
Madam Li looked at Tan Rou’s paper in surprise. She couldn’t understand how Tan Rou seemed to have opened up after the storm.
The subject tested in the afternoon wasn’t the ones that Madam Li taught and so she didn’t really understand it. However, she felt that Tan Rou’s confidence and calmness were definitely something that only the top students would have. She looked even sharper than the top students. She didn’t even blink and it seemed like she didn’t pause for a single question.
Madam Li didn’t dare come to a conclusion on her own.
She thought to herself that this girl was a special one. Maybe she really had a serious bias in her subject or maybe she was shocked by what happened in the morning; but no matter what, she couldn’t spew nonsense again.
Madam Li was looking forward to Tan Rou’s results after she had shown such skills in the princ.i.p.al’s office. Such a calm and capable child shouldn’t have done badly in her exams.
The exams in the afternoon pa.s.sed by quickly and she answered them without any hesitation. She didn’t bother checking them and just stared out the window in a daze.
Tan Rou didn’t hold back this time and finished the questions with her full potential. She was confident that when the results get released, it would probably cause another storm.
Tan Rou never wanted to be so ostentatious. Years of crisis have made Tan Rou prefer to be pa.s.sive. She didn’t want to become a target of the public because even if she wasn’t afraid of anything, she still had to keep the Tao family in mind.
Most people were the same as Tan Jing, like toads; unable to cause much harm but enough to disgust the h.e.l.l out of others.
In this life, Tan Rou only wanted to protect her family and earn more money to provide them with a better life. There were some things that could be done in the dark and there was no need to show off. Besides, there was a group of people in this world that Tan Rou didn’t want to see. If they found her, it would be troublesome. So, Tan Rou had applied for a new account to venture in the stocks market and only showed a few small tricks.
It was a pity that Tan Jing didn’t want to leave her alone and disrupted Tan Rou’s previous plan.
Even if Tan Rou didn’t like to be flamboyant, she could no longer take Tan Jing’s attack pa.s.sively. It didn’t matter if she would be known as a petty person or that she was taking things too seriously, as long as she could tear off Tan Jing’s mask, Tan Rou was willing to do it. As long as Tan Jing could get the miserable end she deserved, Tan Rou would fight till her last breath.
In her previous life, the ugly faces of Tan Jing and the Tan family appeared in tan Rou’s dreams almost every day. Tan Rou knew their ruthlessness better than anyone else but she also yearned for their recognition more than anyone else.
In this life, the tables had turned.
Tan Jing could probably see Tan Rou smiling provocatively at her even in her dreams.
Since Tan Rou’s rebirth, the acc.u.mulation of events was enough to make Tan Jing collapse.
This was the effect Tan Rou wanted. If you want to destroy someone, you should always start by making them go crazy. Tan Jing deserved to be driven crazy by her.
As soon as the bell rang, Tan Rou walked out of the cla.s.sroom. She stretched lazily and walked out of the school in high spirits.
As a result, Tan Rou’s sharp eyes immediately saw Zhuang Liu’s car.
Zhuang Liu didn’t get out of the car this time. He only asked Xiao Mo to stand by the car and wait for Tan Rou.
Seeing Tan Rou come out, the rear window rolled down slowly, revealing Zhuang Liu’s smiling face.
Zhuang Liu smiled and waved at Tan Rou. His action was very immature. It was obvious that he didn’t do this often, but at this moment, he looked incredibly cute.
Tan Rou quickly ran over and looked at Zhuang Liu with her bright eyes. “Why are you here? ”
Zhuang Liu smiled. “I’ve missed you.”
