53 053 Zhuang Liu To The Rescue

Tan Rou frowned. Then, she stared at Chen Yi in disgust. Did Chen Yi think that everyone was like her? Calling other sl*ts when she was one herself. Chen Yi would probably be the one breaking her head to find a rich suitor for Tan Jing so that they could save the Tan family!

Tan Jing’s eyes were red as she looked at Tan Rou. She was cursing at Tan Rou secretly about how Tan Rou was a b*tch! Tan Rou was only acting pitiful and weak, so everyone would be heartbroken for her! Zhuang Liu was someone she rejected personally, but still, Tan Rou shouldn’t be able to have him!

The rest looked at how Chen Yi acted like an uncultured woman and felt that things were getting awkward. This was a family matter, and they didn’t have the right to be making any comments. They have never met their foster child, but looking at her now, she seems to be an obedient and polite little girl. But, none of them would really know if she was as evil as Chen Yi had said and how Tan Rou was the one who took away Tan Jing’s fiance.

Tan Rou lowered her head and did not say a word.

Public clamor can melt gold. What’s the use of explaining herself to these people? They would only believe things that they knew. Chen Yi and Tan Jing were like dogs being forced into a corner which was why they were dragging her along with them. Tan Rou felt cold and exhausted.

Zhuang Liu was the one who spoke instead, “I would love to have a marriage with the Tan family, but if the person that I’m marrying isn’t Tan Rou, I would want nothing to do with the Tan family.”

Not only the other women who were present but even Tan Rou was also stunned by what Zhuang Liu said. Did Zhuang Liu mean that…..back then, the old master Zhuang only lowered his status and asked for marriage from the Tan family because of Tan Rou.

Tan Rou didn’t think that Zhuang Liu, who didn’t like to explain himself, would say something so shocking. She thought that Zhuang Liu was only doing so because he didn’t like how Chen Yi and Tan Jing treated her. He only wanted to stand up for her, and his actions touched her.

Tan Rou stepped forward and poked Zhuang Liu as she whispered, “I’m fine. You shouldn’t be lying about this.”

Zhuang Liu gave a gentle smile and comforted Tan Rou. He shook his head and said, “It isn’t a lie.”

Then, Zhuang Liu told the rest, “The Zhuang family does not care about status or fame. We don’t need it, but character is important to us. The elders of the Zhuang family look highly on Tan Rou, and she is also someone important to me. We were happy that she got back to her real family. As for the Tan family, she is no longer related to them, which means that the Zhuang family isn’t as well.”

Zhuang Liu was worried that what happened today would bring more trouble to Tan Rou. So, he decided to use his family’s name to tell the rest that the marriage of the Zhuang family agreed to be only with Tan Rou. He believed that it wouldn’t take long for this news to spread, and once this got out, the rest of them would be more careful before bullying Tan Rou to be close to the Tan family.

Even when Liu Zhuang’s words weren’t straightforward, they clearly showed how protective he was of Tan Rou. Everyone present was smart people, and all of the rich women instantly looked at Tan Rou with welcoming eyes. They nodded their heads and immediately knew what to do next. If they were lucky enough to have the opportunity, they would definitely want to get to know her better.

The boss looked at Zhuang Liu and said, “You’re right! Fame and status would be nothing when making friends. The character would be more important. This would only allow relationships to last longer.”

Then, the boss turned towards Tan Rou and invited her, “Xiao Zhuang is already speaking so highly of you. I believe there must be something interesting to learn from you, young miss. What you said just now indeed sparked an interest in me. Quick, come in with me. We should sit down and have a conversation! If you don’t mind this place, you should come here more often!”

Tan Rou could feel the kindness coming from the boss, and she didn’t have the heart to reject him. Plus, Tan Rou felt differently after seeing how beautiful the courtyard was. To be able to let go of all the fame in the city and to own such a beautiful restaurant in the woods was definitely something difficult to do. It was just like what Zhuang Liu had said, and this man was unique.

It wasn’t difficult to see that the streams and plants had been placed meticulously. The ancient touch in this place was incredible and different. The boss must definitely be someone special, and it was no touch that this restaurant became famous.

After getting the boss’s invitation, Tan Rou was delighted.

Tan Rou knew this was all because of Zhuang Liu and immediately gave him a thankful look.

Zhuang Liu smiled and said, “This has nothing to do with me. I know that you would appreciate each other’s company.”

While conversing, the boss and the rest of the crowd walked into the restaurant with Zhuang Liu.
