121 121 Strict discipline
Tao Qi didn’t say anything. Ever since he came back, he could feel that his parents and brother’s attitude was a little strange. They seemed to be biased against Sister Jingjing.
Although Tao Qi was young, he was very sensitive to the fact that if he told them he was going to see Sister Jingjing. They definitely wouldn’t agree, so he didn’t say anything. He didn’t expect Tan Rou to guess it correctly.
This cunning woman!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTan Rou slowed down her voice and said as gently as she could, “I am not objecting to you looking for Tan Jing. I’m not interested in how close you are with her, but I have to ensure your safety. Add me on WeChat and share your location with me when you leave the house. Let me see where you are. Otherwise, I’ll call our brother and ask him to send you to school.”
Hearing how Tan Rou say that she didn’t object to the idea of him looking for Tan Jing, Tao Qi felt a little better. But, he was still a little reluctant. He felt that his freedom was being restricted and wanted to struggle a little. “I usually go out by myself. What are you worried about …”
Although Tao Qi wasn’t very willing, he actually had a different feeling in his heart.
He had been very independent since he was young and was doted on by his grandmother. Since he was young, there were people around him who would listen to him. As long as he acted coquettishly or shamelessly, they would listen to him. However, as time passed, Tao Qi felt a sense of emptiness in his heart. Perhaps it was what people often said about not being satisfied with being in a honeypot.
And although Tan Rou was detestable, Tao Qi could feel that a gap in his heart had been taken care of.
She was very strict with him, treating him like a silly child. This should have made Tao Qi very angry, but the amazing thing was that he realized that he liked the feeling of being disciplined.
Tao Qi couldn’t help but pat his little face and secretly cursed himself for having had enough of good days. He actually felt that Tan Rou’s control over him was a little warm. He must have damaged his brain pretty badly.
On the other end of the phone, Tan Rou didn’t know that Tao Qi was disdainful of her. After hearing Tao Qi’s weak rebuttal, she still said in a tone that left no room for discussion, “You don’t agree to it? Then, there’s nothing left for us to talk about. I’ll hang up now, I still have to call my brother.”
Tao Qi didn’t expect Tan Rou to be so decisive. He hurriedly agreed. “I will! I’ll turn on the GPS, okay? Don’t tell my brother about it. You want him to scold me, don’t you?”
Tan Rou was satisfied and smiled. “Of course not. Then, this shall be our little secret. As long as you behave, I promise you won’t get scolded.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTao Qi sneered awkwardly, unwilling to admit the joy in his heart. He even bickered with Tan Rou. “I think you’re just trying your best to add me on WeChat. I don’t just let anyone add me on WeChat. I’m just doing this because you forced me to.
Tan Rou narrowed her eyes and threatened, “Forced? Who do you think you are?? Be good, I will be waiting for your friend request. I have to go back to class, I’m hanging up.” Then, she ended the call.
Tao Qi’s disgruntled words were stuck in his mouth. When he heard the cut off sound from the phone, he angrily put down the phone and bounced on the spot a few times to vent his anger. In the end, he still checked the number and ran back to his room to get the phone his mother gave him. He took the initiative to send a friend request.
Tan Rou returned to the classroom and sat down. Looking at the notification that appeared on her phone, she smiled in satisfaction and accepted the friend request.
She raised her head and glanced in Tan Jing’s direction. Tan Rou raised her eyebrows with interest. Tan Jing, you’ve spent so much effort trying to win over Tao Qi, but his heart might not be biassed towards you now. Let’s do this slowly.
On the other end, Tan Jing still didn’t know how the relationship between Tan Rou and Tao Qi had changed in just one day. She was still dreaming that the world was in chaos, thinking that Tao Qi would become a very useful trump card in her hands.
She secretly calculated how she should find out about Tan Rou’s living condition in the Tao family when she saw Tao Qi tonight, and how she should convince Tao Qi to help her cause trouble for Tan Rou in the Tao family!
Tan Jing felt that Tan Rou was too hard to control now. Not only had Tan Rou learned how to control others, but she had also become more confident than before. That kind of self-confidence and pride made Tan Jing inexplicably flustered. Perhaps her subconscious had already reminded Tan Jing that she was not as good as Tan Rou, but Tan Jing had not realized it and would never admit it.
Tan Jing was still clinging to her dream of being the young lady of the Tanfamily. She felt that it was no big deal that Tan Rou had become powerful. Everyone had a weakness, and she happened to find out that Tan Rou’s weakness was the Tao family. What could be more interesting than this?
