89 089 Zhuang Liu delivering medicine
A light bulb went off in Tan Rou’s head. She suddenly thought of something and stopped in her tracks. After Lu Qing caught up to her, she asked, “Are you afraid that I’ll get beaten up on my way home after hearing Liang Lu’s harsh words?”
Lu Qing turned his head away unnaturally. He lowered his head and used the tips of his toes to rub against the ground. After some time, he said, “I just use the same path as you… I don’t know Liang Lu and I don’t know if she changed her mind after hearing the broadcast. If she still comes to find trouble with you, leave her to me!”
Tan Rou looked at Lu Qing in surprise. She didn’t expect this strange guy to be so meticulous.
This matter had nothing to do with Lu Qing in the first place. It was Tan Jing who colluded with those girls and did all those things by using his name.
After Lu Qing clarified, he could have left it alone but because of Liang Lu’s words, he awkwardly offered to send her home to protect her.
Tan Rou smiled brightly. Lu Qing was swayed by Tan Rou’s smile and the tips of his ears began to turn red.
Tan Rou motioned for Lu Qing to walk side by side with her and said, “Liang Lu was just deceived. She did it out of impulse and she has already figured out the reason. Besides, you said it so clearly on the radio. She won’t come and look for trouble.”
Lu Qing frowned slightly, “This is not something that can be covered up by using impulse as an excuse. I don’t know if they usually scare people in this manner. I can’t just ignore it.”
Tan Rou nodded her head. Lu Qing was indeed taught by old Master Lu. He was very righteous and responsible.
Tan Rou suggested, “Why don’t we make a bet? If Liang Lu really stops me at the gate, then we don’t have to be polite anymore. We can then get rid of all the grudges that we’ve had with her and help the other girls get justice but if she doesn’t and has learnt from her mistake, we’ll give her a chance to apologize to the girl she bullied in private.”
Of course, Lu Qing would agree to this. If Liang Lu could understand and stop, that would be for the best. He didn’t want to make things difficult for any other girls.
Tan Rou and Lu Qing walked to the school gate and looked around. Liang Lu naturally didn’t cause any more trouble. After hearing Lu Qing’s broadcast, she was so embarrassed that she knew she was in the wrong. She didn’t dare to cause any more trouble.
Seeing that Liang Lu wasn’t there, Tan Rou and Lu Qing both had a relaxed smile on their faces.
Tan Rou thought with relief that Liang Lu didn’t let her down. If Liang Lu didn’t live up to her expectations, she wouldn’t have been merciful this time.
Suddenly, Tan Rou caught a glimpse of Xiao Mo in the crowd. Zhuang Liu was right next to her, looking at her through the crowd.
Tan Rou’s lips curled into a smile. Why was Zhuang Liu here?
The two hadn’t seen each other for a few days and so Tan Rou was very happy to see them again.
Tan Rou couldn’t wait to say hello to Zhuang Liu, so she hurriedly bidded Lu Qing farewell. “Liang Lu won’t be coming. You should go home quickly. Bye!”
Lu Qing didn’t notice Tan Rou’s gaze. He was relieved that he didn’t see Liang Lu. He said goodbye to Tan Rou and left.
Tan Rou jogged over to Zhuang Liu in high spirits. Her energetic and youthful appearance made Zhuang Liu smile.
When Tan Rou stood in front of him, Zhuang Liu greeted her gently, “Are you happy in school? Don’t run so fast, be careful not to fall. I’m right here.”
Tan Rou’s eyes curved and she happily replied, “It’s pretty good. Although a little accident happened, everything else was fine.”
Seeing that Tan Rou didn’t want to say anything else, Zhuang Liu didn’t ask further.
Tan Rou was smart and had her own plans. She was not a weakling who needed to be carefully protected.
The confident and cheerful Tan Rou at this moment was the light in Zhuang Liu’s heart. This was how she should be. Lively and happy at all times.
Tan Rou calmed her breathing and blinked her big eyes. “Why are you guys at school? What business do you have here?”
Xiao Mo quickly opened the trunk and showed it to Tan Rou. “Miss Tan Rou, third master is here to deliver these herbs to you.”
Tan Rou looked at the herbs in surprise and asked in confusion, “I’ve asked Uncle Bai to find someone to send it over and he actually came to you? This …” Tan Rou felt that this was a waste of talent. There was no need to kill a chicken with a butcher’s knife.
Zhuang Liu’s company had business fluctuating thousands of millions every minute, why was he sent here to run errands for him? Uncle Bai was truly making a scene.
