Tan Rou, along with Zhuang Liu and Xiao Mo, was seated in an exquisite room. Before they sat in their seats, the boss dragged Xiao Mo along with him. He was telling Xiao Mo that he wanted to talk to him about life, but he was trying to leave some space for Zhuang Liu and Tan Rou.

The boss could socialize with so many rich businessmen and politicians. He would definitely be someone who could read between the lines. This was the first time that Zhuang Liu brought a woman here, and along with what he just said earlier, even if the others couldn’t see it, the boss could.

Zhuang Liu mentioned that she was someone important, but perhaps this was also someone that he held in his heart dearly. Seeing how Zhuang Liu’s eyes were always stuck on Tan Rou, it was easier for others to read his mind.

Xiao Mo instantly understood the situation as well. Not only did Miss Tan Rou cure the young master, but she was also a wonderful person. She was kind and considerate, with a mild temper that made everyone feel comfortable around her. Especially in comparison to Tan Jing, Miss Tan Rou was a good woman that was hard to find nowadays. Xiao Mo was also aware of his own boss’s intentions.

Therefore, Xiao Mo followed the boss obediently. He went to the other room, giving space to Tan Rou and Zhuang Liu.

Zhuang Liu was delighted that both Xiao Mo and the boss understood his intentions. He complimented them inside his heart but still maintained a polite smile as he looked at Tan Rou with gentle eyes.

Tan Rou was feeling a little awkward. It wasn’t hard for her to guess from the Boss’s expression that he wanted to give them space. Due to what Zhuang Liu said earlier in front of those people, it would be unavoidable that the others would consider them as a couple.

However, after thinking it through thoroughly, from the moment they first met, they have had lots of affairs tangled together, but Zhuang Liu has always been a considerate man. It would be difficult for anyone to reject him.

Tan Rou asked herself as well. Regards to Zhuang Liu really admired and trusted her. Since this was the case, she did not need to think too much about it. It would be better to just go with the flow.

Their eyes met, and the atmosphere between them was comforting.

Zhuang Liu spoke first. “Don’t take them seriously. They still do not have the ability to do anything. They just like disgusting others. I can help you to shut their mouths.”

Tan Rou shook her head. “I shouldn’t have to trouble you. It’s such a waste of your time and talent. Plus, it would also stain your reputation. Our conflict is a little complicated, but I am hoping that I will be able to end things with my own abilities.”

Zhuang Liu knew that Tan Rou was a prideful woman. When he asked her the question, he already expected that this was the answer. It was a piece of cake for him to deal with the Tan family, but he couldn’t do so.

Just like what Tan Rou did today. With her martial arts skills, Chen Yi could not lay her hands on Tan Rou. Tan Rou would still be able to defeat them and leave them crying on the ground since he had witnessed her abilities.

However, Tan Rou did not do so.

Sometimes, solving something isn’t as easy as cutting it with a knife. It was important for the other party to get the punishment that they deserved. Plus, there must be a reason for it so that the others would believe that they were the ones who did these to themselves.

So, Tan Rou didn’t only want Chen Yi and Tan Jing to suffer. She wanted them to feel that they deserved to suffer. She wanted everyone to lose trust in them, and everyone around them would despise them.

It’s better to slander one’s heart than slice their body into pieces. This would bring them more pain than causing the Tan family to go bankrupt overnight.

With a few exchanges, they understood what the other party wanted. Tan Rou smiled as well. Zhuang Liu was indeed a considerate man. He also understood her well. He had the abilities, but he was never arrogant. He didn’t interject into her problem but instead allowed her to do as she pleased, which comforted Tan Rou.

The dishes were served. Zhuang Liu was carefully cutting the dishes for Tan Rou and slowly introduced them to her from the story behind them and the ingredients found inside them.

Tan Rou picked up a piece of fish, and no bones were seen. It was so soft that it melted as soon as she placed it in her mouth. The fish was tender and smooth. The fish was cooked to perfection.

Zhuang Liu then filled up Tan Rou’s bowl with seafood porridge. Tan Rou took a small bite of it, and her eyes widened in shock. They were glistening as she stared at Zhuang Liu.

Seeing how Tan Rou was happy with the food, he was also overjoyed. “This should suit your appetite.”

Tan Rou nodded her head. “It’s delicious! The porridge is so tasty! It must have been cooked for a long time! The fish instantly melted inside my mouth!”
