Ms. Tan Is The Real Boss

98 098 The big boss’s father

Tan Rou was afraid that her eyes were playing tricks on her. She couldn’t help but stare at the paintings a few more times. The result was still the same. Those collectibles were authentic!

Tan Rou looked at Father Tao, who was simple and down-to-earth, and sighed in her heart. Was this what the legendary netizens ridiculed where your family has nothing but four simple walls but when you turned 18, they tell you that your family is actually loaded?!

The father of the family who was a small employee who worked hard every day had suddenly become a millionaire. This contrast was thrilling.

Mr. And Mrs. Tao had hidden it well. If it wasn’t for Mr. Tao’s love for painting and calligraphy which resulted in his collection inside his study, and that he happened to run into Tan Rou, who was an expert in painting and calligraphy, his secret wouldn’t have been discovered.

Now, Tan Rou felt that everything had a reasonable explanation. Last time, when she earned her first bucket of gold, Father Tao immediately announced that he was promoted that night and there would be a raise. So, there was no need for Tan Rou to worry about her family.

!!

At that time, Tan Rou felt that everything was coincidental. It turned out that he was afraid that she would be tired and so he couldn’t help but changed the script.

However, after the shock, Tan Rou’s heart returned to normal.

There had to be a reason why Mr. And Mrs. Tao wanted to hide the true identity of the family. Since they didn’t want their children to know about this, she would just pretend that she didn’t know anything.

After all, Tan Rou had never thought of relying on her parents for anything. Whether the Tao family was rich or were only left with four walls, Tan Rou had long made up her mind that this family was something that she had to protect.

It was a good thing to find out that this family was actually in a better state which surprised Tan Rou. This meant that their family had the ability to risk what was coming to them.

However, whether the Tao family was rich or not, it did not conflict with Tan Rou’s desire to protect the Tao family. So, there was no need for Tan Rou to ask for an explanation and put her parents in a difficult position.

Tan Rou felt that for Mr. Tao to have such an amazing collection ability, he must have been an important person in the past. However, he and Mrs. Tao were able to abandon their wealth and become someone who lived a simple life. They even taught their children so well. It definitely wasn’t something that was easy to accomplish.

It was easy for one to change from frugal to luxurious but difficult for the other way round.

There were so many of them who were blinded by greed and only had eyes for money but Mr. And Mrs. Tao chose to stray away from it. It was clear that they had characters that ordinary people couldn’t match up.

Tan Rou blinked her big eyes and looked at Mr. Tao with admiration as a daughter. She also worshipped her as well.

It had only been a minute or two since Tan Rou had discovered the paintings. Mr. Tao was still in deep thought but he was shocked by Tan Rou’s bright eyes.

Father Tao was confused. Why was his daughter so excited all of a sudden? He hadn’t even said anything!

Mr. Tao sighed in his heart. A boy could be strictly disciplined but were there any of his sons that had not been badly beaten by him?

He couldn’t do the same to his daughter. As a girl, he couldn’t wait to pamper her and wouldn’t want to say a single harsh word to her.

However, doting on a son was like killing him indirectly. Father Tao felt that he had already carefully disciplined Tan Jing but the result was still disappointing. In front of his biological daughter, Tan Rou, Father Tao had to be more careful.

Looking at Tan Rou’s cute appearance, Mr. Tao forced himself not to smile and made himself look more serious.

He cleared his throat and said to Tan Rou, “Xiao Rou, you’ve been home for some time. If you feel uncomfortable or unhappy, you have to tell me and your mother.”

Tan Rou looked at Father Tao’s expression and became more serious than before. “Everything is fine. I’m feeling better than ever!”

Hearing Tan Rou’s words, Father Tao was pleased.

It wasn’t easy for this child to understand and completely let go of her obsession with the Tan family. He was so sensible. It wasn’t in vain that he and his wife doted on her from the bottom of their hearts.

Mr. Tao nodded. He remembered what happened at the dinner table and comforted her,”We all know that you’re a good kid. We’ve also seen Tan Jing’s character clearly. Don’t think too much about what happened with Tao Qi, we’ll definitely criticise him for it. No matter what, we’re a family, and I definitely won’t allow him to turn his back on an outsider! We will be fair in regards to this matter, you don’t have to worry.”

Father Tao’s attitude was firm because he knew that the conflicts between children were part of the responsibility of parents.

If he couldn’t mediate the situation properly, it would be his fault. It was easy to say that he was fair but to actually practise it was difficult. However, Father Tao had already made up his mind to not side with any child.

Tao Qi had just said something wrong, so he had to be punished. If Tan Rou had made a mistake, she would also be punished.

That was because she had truly become a part of the Tao family!
