Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Tao Yue had been watching the video in the surveillance room for the entire afternoon. She wasn’t the one watching the video. She was just playing with her phone. The security guard was the one watching the video. The security guards were miserable. They had never watched such a long video before. By the end, their eyes were blurry.
However, they still couldn’t find the two cars that Tao Yue mentioned. They all suspected that Tao Yue had made a mistake in the race and deliberately played with them. In the end, Tao Yue was called away by Second Aunt Tao. Second Aunt Tao asked her to have dinner.
After she left, the security guards started discussing.
“How can the young miss be such a person? I’ve always thought that she was very kind. 1 didn’t expect her to be so difficult to get along with.”
“You’re wrong. That’s not the Eldest Miss. Miss Yue is only the Second Miss. The real Eldest Miss should be Miss Rou.”
“I think Miss Rou is better. Although she looks cold, she’s actually very gentle. That day, I hurt my foot when I was carrying something, and Miss Rou even gave me ointment.”
“Actually, I always thought that Miss Yue was very good at pretending to be a good person. Although she was usually gentle, she was especially fierce in private. Once, I saw her lose her temper in the garden and kick a stray cat until it rolled around and almost died. After that, Old Madam asked who did it, but she didn’t admit it.”
After a discussion, the security guards came to a conclusion. Tao Yue was not as gentle and kind as she looked on the surface.
Tao Yue returned to the living room of the main residence with a face full of resentment. When she entered the living room, her expression changed. She had the same expression as before, as if nothing unhappy had happened. “Good evening!” Tao Yue greeted the maid warmly.
“Good evening, Second Miss!” The maid replied gently.”
Tao Yue hated to hear the t.i.tle “Second Miss”, but there were so many people who liked to call her that. It was really annoying.
Hearing the maid call her Second Miss, Tao Yue didn’t say anything more and walked straight to the dining table.
The meal hadn’t officially started yet, so the family started chatting.
As they chatted, they brought up the topic of Tao Yue’s piano compet.i.tion finals. Since that was the case, they couldn’t help but talk about Tao Yue’s results.
“I heard that you came in last in this morning’s compet.i.tion, right?”Grandpa Tao’s expression was very serious.
Tao Yue lowered her head and answered him timidly,”Grandpa, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean it.””
Grandpa Tao said,”You didn’t do it on purpose. Then you don’t have the ability to get good results?””
Tao Yue raised her head and hurriedly explained,” Grandpa, it’s not like that. I have the ability. It’s just that I didn’t perform well in today’s compet.i.tion. If I had another chance, I would definitely enter the top three.””
“I’m not the organizer or a judge. It’s useless for you to tell me this.”Grandpa Tao said,”I’ve always heard from your mother that you play the piano so well. I didn’t expect you to play like this.” There were thirty people, and you were actually ranked last. You really don’t deserve such a good piano and piano teacher.”
Tao Yue was extremely upset after being criticized. She was also very angry. She could have achieved good results in today’s compet.i.tion, but because of Tan Rou, everything was ruined.
“I’m sorry!” Tao Yue felt that she shouldn’t be the only one under pressure. She should let Tan Rou be scolded with her.” During the compet.i.tion this morning, 1 was scared by the lobby sister. When the curtain was pulled open, my eldest cousin was sitting there. She didn’t tell me that she was a judge, otherwise…” “Humph!” Grandpa Tao became even angrier.” What do you mean? Could it be that you don’t have the ability to do so and still want your eldest cousin to cheat for you?”
“That’s not what I meant!” “It’s just that the lobby sister didn’t tell me beforehand that she was a judge, so I was very nervous when 1 saw her.” Tao Yue said anxiously.”
“Don’t push the blame to others.”Grandpa Tao said seriously,” You’re the one who made a mistake because of your unstable mentality. You’re looking for your own problems. You don’t have the ability to do so, but you still talk big every day. Is this the att.i.tude that a member of the Tao family should have?”
When Grandpa Tao was angry, no one in the family dared to say anything. Only Grandma Tao did not listen to Grandpa Tao.
“Xiao Rou, why didn’t you tell me that you were going to be a judge? I didn’t even take a photo of you.”” I don’t have any photos of you partic.i.p.ating in the event,” Grandma Tao said regretfully.” You didn’t tell me when you went to the physics compet.i.tion last time..””
