92 092 Zhuang Liu is jealous
Tan Rou didn’t notice Zhuang Liu’s childish and cute little actions. Otherwise, she would have teased him.
However, Xiao mo, who was in the background, read the mind of the third young master. He laughed silently inside his heart. He never thought that this day would come. Usually, he would hate it if people stood around him. He hated it when people talked about his outstanding appearance but now, he was standing in front of the school gate like a peacock with its tail open. He was like a human model for everyone to look at.
Zhuang Liu enjoyed the gazes of others on him and Tan Rou. He wanted to tell the world that they were close.
Zhuang Liu suddenly thought of something and turned his eyes to Tan Rou and asked, “I heard from Uncle Bai that you’ve asked him about old master Lu. He said that his grandson is your classmate. If I remember correctly, his name is Lu Qing?”
Tan Rou nodded. “That’s right. Old master Lu’s illness seemed to have acted up today. Lu Qing rushed home to visit him.”
Zhuang Liu frowned, her eyes filled with grievance, and he probed, “You….are you close to him?” Otherwise, why would she be so concerned about Lu Qing’s family when school had just started? Zhuang Liu was a little unhappy but he did not dare to show it to Tan Rou.
Xiao Mo displayed his professionalism as a professional assistant and fearlessly added, “I heard that Lu Qing is the most handsome guy in the school. He’s very popular with the girls.” With that said, he smiled in a serious manner.
Zhuang Liu shot daggers at Xiao Mo with his eyes, causing beads of sweat to form on Xiao Mo’s forehead. Deep inside, he started scolding himself for being so talkative. The third master had such a good temperament when he was with Miss Tan and he got carried away.
Tan Rou watched the interaction between the two and laughed. However, she suddenly remembered what Uncle Bai said on the phone about not being seduced by other boys and that Zhuang Liu was waiting for her. Combined with Zhuang Liu’s question, Tan Rou blushed slightly. Was Zhuang Liu getting jealous?
Tan Rou quickly dispelled this thought. She hoped that Zhuang Liu was just being curious and that Uncle Bai would not tell Zhuang Liu what he had said earlier. Otherwise, it would be embarrassing.
She had no idea that when Bai Jing called Zhuang Liu, Bai Jing was even more straightforward than he was with her. He directly warned Zhuang Liu about only being focused about work in his office. What was the point of earning so much money if he couldn’t marry Tan Rou in the end? Tan Rou was popular in the school and the male students these days were like wolves and tigers. They might even have their eyes on Tan Rou. Moreover, Tan Rou was already interested in the grandson of the Lu family. If Zhuang Liu didn’t take any actions and lost Tan Rou, Zhuang Liu was never allowed to come knocking on his door.
Bai Jing obviously exaggerated but it still gave Zhuang Liu a big shock. Finally, his competitive spirit was aroused. He left the conference room that was filled with people and rushed over to declare his sovereignty.
At this time, Zhuang Liu’s eyes were burning with resentment as he stared at Tan Rou. He couldn’t help but ask about Lu Qing, which made tan Rou feel inexplicably guilty. She quickly and honestly explained, “I’m not interested in Lu Qing. I’m only concerned about old master Lu’s condition. After all, I don’t want to let Tan Jing get away with it.”
Zhuang Liu didn’t know what Tan Jing’s role in this matter was but when he heard Tan Rou say that she was not interested in Lu Qing without any hesitation, he felt comfortable. Tan Rou had a superb medical skill and so this must be the reason why she was interested in old master Lu’s illness.
Zhuang Liu nodded in a good mood, “Well, I’ll help you look into it too. The Lu family also has some businesses and dealings with us.”
Tan Rou smiled naturally. With their status now, there was no need to be too polite and grateful toward Zhuang Liu. Otherwise, it would make them look like strangers.
Tan Rou didn’t want to stay at the school gate any longer. The other students’s gossiping eyes were getting more and more intense. So,she suggested, “It’s getting late. You’ve wasted a lot of time delivering my medicine. You should head back to the office. I’ll have to go home as well.”
Zhuang Liu shook his head. “I’ll send you back. Get in the car then. Besides, there are so many medicinal herbs here. It’s not convenient for you to carry them home.”
Tan Rou didn’t refuse and directly went forward to push Zhuang Liu’s wheelchair. Zhuang Liu’s car had been modified, so he easily fixed the wheelchair on the car with a push.
Under everyone’s gossiping eyes, Zhuang Liu’s luxury car slowly drove by, leaving behind a gorgeous back view.
In the blink of an eye, Xiao mo drove his luxury car into the alley where the Tao family’s house was located and sent tan Rou to her house.
Zhuang Liu wondered why the journey was so short. If only Xiao mo had driven a little slower. He could have taken a detour. How insensible. How dare he mention the school hunk just now? his bonus for the month will be deducted.
