Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Tan Rou was surprised. She knew that Zhao Ru had a strong personality, but she didn’t expect her to talk to Tan Jing like that. This sentence pushed Tan Jing into a corner. If Tan Jing wanted to be with Tan Rou, she would have to face the situation where she would lose both sides. After all, Tan Rou’s att.i.tude was not clear, and Zhao Ru’s att.i.tude was very firm.
Zhao Ru stopped He Ling. “Lingling, let’s go. Since Tan Jing wants to be with Tan Rou, she’s not our friend anymore.”
Tan Jing looked left and right, but in the end, she followed Zhao Ru and the others.
Tan Rou couldn’t help but laugh out loud. She whispered to Li Li, “Zhao Ru’s taking the lead now. She’s going to be the next queen bee.”
“Rourou, did you see Zhao Ru and Tan Jing’s expressions just now?” Li Li laughed so hard that she almost choked. “Oh my G.o.d, Tan Jing’s face is darker than the bottom of my cooking pot. Zhao Ru’s expression was so arrogant! I want to applaud her for it.”
Tan Rou picked up the book beside her hand and read it. She had no intention of forgiving Tan Jing at all because Tan Jing did not come to apologize sincerely. She just wanted to ease the relationship between them first before continuing to cause more trouble. Tan Rou didn’t want to give Tan Jing a chance to turn things around. She just wanted to press Tan Jing to death in the quagmire in one go. Tan Jing wouldn’t be able to climb out even if she wanted to.
Tan Jing returned to her seat silently. She was not only cursing Tan Rou, but also Zhao Ru, the idiot. She wanted to get Tan Rou’s new address and go to Tao Zhi, but Zhao Ru, that idiot, ruined her plan.
Zhao Ru looked at Tan Jing’s expression and asked with satisfaction, “Jingjing, you wouldn’t want to be friends with Tan Rou, right?”
Tan Jing smiled and replied coldly, “No, you’ve misunderstood. I just want to ease the tension between us. I don’t want to be friends with her.”
Zhao Ru glanced at Tan Rou and rolled her eyes. “Jingjing, you better think this through. If you still want to go back to your old relationship with Tan Rou, we won’t talk to you anymore.”
In order to please Tan Jing, Zhao Ru had bad-mouthed Tan Rou a lot. She had already offended Tan Rou, and she did not want to apologize to Tan Rou. Anyway, one-third of the third year of high school had pa.s.sed. It was fine as long as they persisted until graduation.
Tan Jing was furious. She had been taught a lesson by Zhao Ru. In the past, she wouldn’t have cared about Zhao Ru as a friend, but now that everyone in the cla.s.s ignored her, she had to cherish Zhao Ru and He Ling.
Tan Jing had yet to find out Tan Rou’s home address, so she decided to follow Tan Rou after school. Although Tan Rou would not tell others her home address, she would eventually be able to find out where they lived.
“Second brother.” Tan Rou carried her school bag and ran to Tao Zheng’s car.
Tao Zheng waved at her. “Slow down. Don’t trip over yourself.”
Tan Rou said as she ran, “I’m already so old. I won’t fall.” She ran to the car door and got in. However, she noticed that something was wrong from the corner of her eye.
“Xiao Rou, what’s wrong? Did you forget something?” Tao Zheng asked.
“No, I haven’t.” Tan Rou got into the car. “Let’s go.”
Tao Zheng started the car and slowly drove home.
Tan Rou turned around to look at the car behind her. She saw Tan Jing getting into a taxi, and then the taxi approached their car.
Tao Zheng drove the car to a s.p.a.cious area and said, “Xiso Qi says he wants roast duck from the city. Let’s go buy one.”
Tan Rou didn’t object but she suddenly said, “Second Brother, drive a little slower.”
“Hmm?” Tao Zheng did not understand. “Are you not feeling well?”
“I just want to confirm something,” Tan Rou replied.
Tao Zheng didn’t ask what was going on. He followed Tan Rou’s request and drove at 30 km/h. The taxi following them slowed down.
Tao Zheng then realized that something was wrong. He muttered to himself, “This is strange, but why do 1 feel that the car behind us is following us?”
“They are following us.” Tan Rou sat in the middle of the seat. “This car has been following us since we were at school.”
“Did we encounter some terrorists?” Tao Zheng told his sister, “Xiao Rou, run as soon as you get out of the car. I’ll stop them.”
“It’s not a terrorist. I know who that person is.” Tan Rou smiled. She’s such a boring person.”
“Do you know who it is?” Tao Zheng asked.
“It’s Tan Jing.” Tan Rou’s eyes were like torches. “She came and asked me about the location of our new home today, but I didn’t tell her. She probably wants to follow us home..”
