171 171 Strangle in the cradle

There seemed to be a thousand words in Zhuang Lius eyes, but in the end, he only replied with one sentence, Maybe you dont remember me but Ive been looking at you and hoping that G.o.d would send you to me.

Tan Rou didnt understand. When had Zhuang Liu seen her? Could it be that he still had a crush on her?

How could this be possible?

She thought about how the two of them had an engagement before she left the Tan family. The engagement was cancelled the moment Tan Jing returned to the Tan family. Could it be that Zhuang Liu had liked her since then?

Tan Rou looked at Zhuang Liu in confusion.

Zhuang Liu didnt say anything more. He moved his palm away from Tan Rous head and looked down at his legs. Not only did you come to my side, but you also treated my illness. This is something I never would have thought of in the past. Im afraid that I might burden you.

Hearing Zhuang Lius words, Tan Rou didnt care about her shyness and quickly comforted him, You will definitely recover, I promise! Dont be so pessimistic, you have to think positively.

Zhuang Liu smiled. So, if I stand up, would I be able to think more about it?

Tan Rous face turned completely red. She was a little peeved. I dont care what youre thinking!

Zhuang Liu looked at Tan Rou lovingly and smiled foolishly.

Tan Rou laughed in anger. She really couldnt understand this man. He had such a domineering ident.i.ty and could get whatever he wanted but he liked to show such a silly look and tease her. He even spoke in such a pitiful tone.

The two chatted for a while before Tan Rou finally asked. She looked at Xiao Mo and asked, Where are you taking me?

Xiao Mo finally felt a sense of presence. Only G.o.d knew how nervous he was when he heard the third young master and Miss Tan flirting with each other at the back of the car. He quickly replied, To the hospital. Old Master Lu is there now.

Tan Rou was a little surprised and looked at Zhuang Liu with wide eyes. Will I visit him today? I was already very surprised to receive your text message today. I didnt expect it to be so soon.

If she could see old master Lu as soon as possible, Tan Rou would be able to come up with a rough plan. If she waited for Tan Jing to take action, it would be too late.

Zhuang Lius smile remained on her face. He nodded. I just wanted to take you to dinner, but we would be pa.s.sing by the hospital. Lets head over there and take a look. This way, you would be able to enjoy dinner later.

Tan Rou smiled obediently. Im not hungry. Ill go and see old master Lu first!

The blush on her face hadnt disappeared yet, and her eyes were bright and curved into small crescents, exuding a sense of joy.

Seeing Tan Rous beautiful smile, Zhuang Liu was a little fascinated.

Xiao Mo saw this scene from the rearview mirror and sighed emotionally.

How could the third young master not pamper her? At this point, even if Miss Tan wanted to see aliens one day, the third young master would immediately call the China National s.p.a.ce Administration to fulfil her wishes.

Tan Rou looked at the scenery outside the window expectantly. She thought to herself that this step that included the Old Master Lu was also very important. The reason why Tan Jing would be able to be so arrogant later on was definitely related to Old Master Lu and Lu Qings favor. With the Tan family and the Lu family, it was with no doubt that Tan Jing had a smooth-sailing life.

At that time, it would be difficult for Tan Jing to bully her and the Tao family. Tan Rou would not be able to easily gain the upper hand like how she was now.

Tan Rou definitely couldnt allow Tan Jing to get another party on her side. Tan Jing was a typical villain who got what she wanted. Once she gained power, she would disregard everyone around her.

There was no need for Tan Rou to watch as Tan Jing gained another powerful trump card in her hands. Tan Rou had to kill her in the cradle as soon as possible.

Moreover, Tan Rou always felt that something was wrong. Even if the Tan family had some connections, the Lu family was not to be trifled with. Old Master Lu had been in bed for so many years, and the Lu family could not find a suitable doctor, but Tan Jing found one in such a short time?

There might be more to this. She had to see old Master Lu with her own eyes before she knew what was wrong with him.

Tan Rou turned around to look at Zhuang Liu and thanked him softly. Thank you for helping me. Dont you think my request is a little confusing? After all, I have nothing to do with the Lu family but youre still helping me.

Zhuang Liu gently shook his head. Theres no need to say such things between us. If we have to be polite, wouldnt I have to thank you every day for saving my life? Without your nerve-soothing incense and your treatment of my leg, Im afraid Id rather die. You dont have to worry. Ill do my best to help you with what you want.

Tan Rou smiled sweetly and stopped being polite.

Zhuang Liu was incredibly nice to her and she would also be good to Zhuang Liu with all her heart. That was more than enough.
