Tan Jing and Tao Qi finally reached a happy atmosphere before the end of dinner. They were no longer as awkward as they were in the beginning. Although Tao Qi was still somewhat thoughtful and Tan Jing also had ulterior motives, at least they had achieved their respective goals.
Tan Jing once again won over Tao Qi, and Tao Qi also saw Sister Jingjing, who he had been thinking about. The two ended the dinner with satisfaction.
When it was time to settle the bill, he was still shocked by the number on the bill even though Tao Qi was mentally prepared. He felt even more guilty and had the feeling that he had done something bad behind his mother’s back.
Obviously, his mother wouldn’t like him looking for sister Jingjing and he even used so much for Sister Jingjing’s money.

Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFor some reason, Tao Qi had subconsciously stood on his parents’ side and treated Tan Jing as an outsider. He felt that spending Tan Jing’s money was the same as spending the Tan family’s money and that it was wrong.
Although Tan Jing’s heart ached, she still put on a generous and carefree appearance in front of Tao Qi. She took out her card and swiped it happily, then left with Tao Qi.
At the thought of going home soon, Tao Qi was a little nervous.
He has been out for so long. His parents must have guessed that he had run out to find Sister Jingjing. He wondered if that bad woman, Tan Rou, had said anything bad about him after she came home.
She had promised him on the phone earlier that as long as he shared his location with her, she would make sure that he wouldn’t get scolded.
If she couldn’t keep her promise, he would never talk to her again!
After Tan Jing went out, she stopped a taxi and took Tao Qi in.
In fact, Tan Jing had originally wanted to let the Tan family’s driver pick her up. That way, she would have looked even more luxurious and could show how good her life was in front of Tao Qi. If Tao Qi was on her side, not only would he be able to enjoy luxurious food, she would be able to travel in a luxurious car. It would definitely make the ten-year-old child fall in love with her!
However, Tan Jing gave up. It was not that she could not make the decision, she was afraid that the driver would see Tao Qi and tell it to Tan Song and Chen Yi.
If they knew that she still had contact with the Tao family, they would definitely be unhappy. Tan Jing couldn’t take the risk just to show off in front of Tao Qi.
Therefore, she could only take a step back and call a taxi.
In fact, Tan Jing was too lazy to send Tao Qi home. She really didn’t want to go back to that old alley. Seeing that old house reminded her of her poor days.
If she had the time, she might have headed home to get a face mask first.
However, she was helpless. She had been careless when Tao Qi left the house and let Tan Rou seize the opportunity. She had been ridiculed both openly and secretly. Now that Tao Qi was home, she couldn’t let herself be caught again!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTan Jing sent Tao Qi home a little impatiently. The siblings each had their own thoughts and didn’t speak along the way.
Just as Tao Qi was feeling uneasy, the taxi arrived at the entrance of the alley very quickly. Tan Jing looked at Tao Qi awkwardly. “Xiao Qi, I won’t be going inside. Mom and the others might not be happy to see me.” Then, she lowered his head in disappointment and sighed.
Tao Qi’s heart ached a little. He didn’t understand why his family and Sister Jingjing’s relationship had turned out this way, but he didn’t have any better ideas now.
He was also afraid that his parents would see Sister Jingjing sending him home. Then, wouldn’t it expose the fact about how he went out to meet Sister Jingjing behind his parent’s back?
Tao Qi looked at Tan Jing pitifully and thought guiltily, ‘Sister Jingjing, I can’t even protect myself now, but I’ll definitely find a way!’
Tan Jing was very dedicated to her acting. At the end, she told Tao Qi helplessly, “I’ll just stay here and watch you go home. It’s best that you don’t tell them you saw me when you go home. I’m afraid you’ll be scolded by them. Let’s wait a little longer. I hope that one day, mom and dad will be able to clear up the misunderstanding about me.”
Tao Qi nodded. After getting out of the car, he jogged home. When he reached the door, he turned back to look at the taxi at the end of the alley. He waved his hand and walked in.
Tan Jing saw Tao Qi enter the house from the car and the expression on her face changed instantly. She frowned impatiently and said to the driver, “Let’s go, the air here is terrible! It stinks!”
The driver looked at the girl sitting in the back doubtfully. He didn’t understand what was going on with the little girl. She was so gentle just now and he was just exclaiming that she had just a good relationship with her brother. However, in the blink of an eye, she changed completely. Children these days are so strange!
