After cleaning up the dining room, Mrs. Tao went to have a chat with Mr. Tao about the study. Mr. Tao extracted the conversation he had had with Tan Rou the night before and comforted Mrs. Tao.
Mrs. Tao was shocked by Tan Rou’s abilities, but she was also pleased with Tan Rou’s magnanimous attitude. Her heart ached for Tan Rou’s determination to go all out. For a while, she had a mix of emotions, but she calmed down after a long time.
Mr. And Mrs. Tao looked at each other and made up their minds. Their child was so capable they obviously couldn’t hold her back. It was time to take action!
The two parents of the Tao family had complicated feelings, while Tan Rou felt relaxed on her way to school.
She checked up on Tao Qi’s condition early in the morning and was very satisfied.
Even if Tao Qi was still unwilling, he had already dropped his shell and was willing to interact with her.
In fact, Tao Qi had never been a bad kid. In her last life, Tan Rou and Tao Qi were like two little porcupines, stabbing each other with their hardest spikes.
Tan Rou complained about everything and gave up on herself. She never thought of getting close to Tao Qi. Instead, she constantly provoked and cursed him, intensifying his rebellion. The siblings were like fire and water.
However, when Tan Rou corrected her attitude in this life and intentionally got close to Tao Qi, she realized that he was actually a good child with a sharp mouth but a soft heart. He was, in fact, very sentimental.
He used to like Tan Jing, so he did everything he could to help Tan Jing deal with Tan Rou. However, if he thought it through one day and acknowledged Tan Rou, he would be willing to treat her wholeheartedly.
After all, they were connected by blood, and the improvement in her relationship with Tao Qi made Tan Rou particularly happy. She walked into the school with light steps.
Due to Zhuang Liu’s declaration of sovereignty the day before, there were more rumors that revolved around Tan Rou in school. Tan Rou felt the gazes from all directions and sighed helplessly. She was really getting famous this time.
Tan Rou didn’t care about the gossip or weird gazes. She walked alone on campus while the people around her deliberately avoided her.
They didn’t hate Tan Rou as much as they did in the beginning. It was just that Tan Rou looked cool, and there were so many rumours about her. For a while, no one dared to take the initiative to talk to Tan Rou. They were afraid that Tan Rou wouldn’t talk to them, and things might get awkward. It was better to watch from a distance.
Tan Rou did not mind it at all. She did things as she pleased and did not want to create an image of a fragile little flower like Tan Jing. The friendship between gentlemen was as light as water. As long as others did not, no one deliberately came looking for trouble; she would not disturb anyone else as well.
However, Tan Rou’s loner’s thoughts were quickly broken. Li Li was lying on the balcony of the corridor when she shouted, “Tan Rou! Come quickly, I came early today, and I’ve been waiting for you!” As she spoke, she waved her hands as if she didn’t see the surprised gazes of the people around her. It also seemed like she wanted to break Tan Rou’s lonely state. She shouted at Tan Rou from upstairs without restraint, smiling very brightly.
Tan Rou chuckled. She had actually forgotten about this little chatterbox. They had already become good friends.
She raised her arm and waved back with a gentle smile. Then, she quickened her pace and went upstairs.
The people around them were a little surprised. Tan Rou had already made a friend, and Tan Rou no longer looked fierce. She was just like a sweet little sister! She looks so pretty when she smiles!
As soon as Tan Rou went upstairs, Li Li held her arm. Li Li handed Tan Rou a bottle of chocolate milk and joked affectionately, “I’ve finally found you, the new campus Belle. My beautiful sister, please don’t forget me!”
Tan Rou laughed, but she felt confused. “Stop it with the nonsense. What’s with the new campus belle?”
Li Li smiled mischievously. “Everyone in school was talking about you this morning. They said that you look incredible. Most people agreed that you should be the new campus belle!”
Tan Rou said helplessly, “To be honest, I don’t understand how they picked someone to be the campus belle. Even now, when I’m the person involved, I don’t even know what the basis is.” There was one more thing that Tan Rou did not say. The previous school Belle was actually Tan Jing. She did not care about this kind of tasteless selection at all.
Li Li, on the other hand, was very happy. She leaned over to Tan Rou and whispered, “Who cares? Anyway, you’re better than Tan Jing. I’m happy that you’ve overthrown her. She won’t have the nerve to call herself the school Belle!”
Tan Rou looked at Li Li’s smug expression and shook her head. She allowed Li Li to say what she wanted. Those were just outsiders ‘judgments, and they wouldn’t bring her any academic credits.
However, as Li Li said, if she could defeat Tan Jing from a certain angle and make Tan Jing unhappy, then she would be quite happy.
