Ms. Tan Is The Real Boss

131 131 Saved from a beating

Tao Qi was afraid that Tan Jing would be waiting for him outside, so he ran into his house quickly. But, he stood at the door and hesitated for a long time.

Tao Qi was a little scared. What if his mother found out that he went out with Sister Jingjing and scolded him? What if they asked him what he did with Sister Jingjing? Should he tell them honestly that they went to a high-end Western restaurant for dinner?

He would definitely be criticised for that. However, if he didn’t tell the truth, wouldn’t that be lying? He had never lied.

Tao Qi paced back and forth at the door anxiously. He didn’t know if he was nervous or what, but he suddenly felt very uncomfortable. His stomach was churning and his breathing gradually quickened. Tao Qi thought that he might have been too nervous. It was normal to go and find Sister Jingjing, but it was all Tan Rou’s fault that the family was so sensitive to this, making him nervous as well.

Just as Tao Qi was rubbing his stomach and taking a deep breath to calm his nerves, the door was pushed open from the inside. Tan Rou stood at the door in her beige pajamas, holding a glass of fruit juice in her hand. She looked at Tao Qi, who was standing dumbly outside the door, and said, “What are you doing sneaking around? You’re already at the door, why aren’t you coming in?”

Tao Qi felt a little embarrassed as if he had been caught red-handed. When he saw Tan Rou, he was reminded of what Sister Jingjing had said just now. Unwilling to give Tan Rou a good time, he pulled a long face and rolled his eyes at Tan Rou before walking into the living room without a word.

Tan Rou looked at Tao Qi’s angry face and raised her eyebrows. Sure enough, after seeing Tan Jing, he lost his temper again. Tan Jing was really good at brainwashing others. The little idiot was really affected again.

Tao Qi came to the living room. He thought he would be facing a joint trial from his family but the living room was empty. He couldn’t help but sigh in relief.

Tan Rou walked over from behind Tao Qi. “Don’t worry, mom and dad are out for a walk. Big brother is tired from going out all day and so he went back to his room early to sleep. No one is waiting to scold you. Didn’t I promise you that I won’t let you get scolded? Look at you, you’re so useless. You dare to go out with Tan Jing but don’t have the guts to face them?”

Tao Qi knew that he couldn’t hide the fact that he had sneaked out to find Sister Jingjing. His parents must have guessed who he went out with but they didn’t stay behind to criticize him; perhaps Tan Rou had really fulfilled her promise and pleaded for him.

Tao Qi had wanted to thank Tan Rou for doing him a favor and not go back on her words, but when he heard Tan Rou mocking him, Tao Qi felt unhappy. His physical discomfort became more and more obvious. He puffed up his little face and turned his back, unwilling to talk to tan Rou.

Tan Rou looked at Tao Qi’s resentful look from behind and snorted coldly. This brat, after meeting Tan Jing, he immediately became so rude. What a waste of my effort that I said so many good things in front of my parents in order to save his ass.

As soon as Tan Rou got home, mother Tao anxiously asked her if she had seen Tao Qi, saying that he seemed to have sneaked out on his own.

Tao Qi’s father was also a little angry. He said that Tao Qi had just returned and must have sneaked out to look for Tan Jing. The brat was not obedient at all. He would definitely punish Tao Qi when he returned.

Tan Rou quickly comforted her parents and told them that she saw Tao Qi at the school gate and that he was taken away safely by Tan Jing. Although Tan Jing was up to no good now, she wasn’t crazy enough to harm Tao Qi, so there was no need to worry too much.

“We’re not worried about anything else, but Xiaoqi has always been …” Mrs. Tao sighed. “If you let him see Tan Jing again, I’m afraid that he’ll have a worse impression of you. It won’t be easy for you after this. Besides, the Tan family is evil. I don’t want Xiao Qi to have any contact with them!”

Father Tao even took out a small wooden stick and was prepared to teach Tao Qi a lesson when he returned.

Tan Rou hugged Mrs. Tao and consoled the couple. She reasoned with them and made promises. She told them that if they insisted on not allowing Tao Qi to meet Tan Jing, it would only stimulate Tao Qi’s rebellious mentality, which would be detrimental to the relationship between them. Besides, it was not necessarily a bad thing for Tao Qi and Tan Jing to meet. Since the Tao family had seen Tan Jing’s character clearly, Tao Qi would also understand it sooner or later.

After talking for a while, Mr. And Mrs. Tao finally relaxed and decided to leave Tao Qi’s matter to Tan Rou, letting the children communicate these problems themselves. The two of them were persuaded by Tan Rou and went out for a walk.
