111 111 What did you call me?

Downstairs, Tan Rou had already started eating her breakfast.

When Tan Rou came down by herself, the other three thought that she had failed. Mrs. Tao comforted her, “Did he lose his temper again? Don’t pay attention to him, hurry up and eat. I’ll deal with him!”

Tan Rou shook her head obediently and sat down. She calmly took a mouthful of porridge and said, “Don’t worry, he’ll be down here soon.”

Mother Tao and Tao Zheng looked at each other in surprise. They couldn’t believe that Tao Qi would really be so obedient. Usually, if they were to wake him up, they would have to coax him and even threaten him a few times before they could get this lazy bum who always had a bad habit of not being able to wake up in the morning.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

But not long after, he heard the sound of footsteps coming from the stairs. Tao Qi rolled his eyes at Tan Rou unwillingly, but still sat down obediently.

Tan Rou ate her porridge with peace of mind and took a few mouthfuls of vegetables. She didn’t even look at Tao Qi. Tao Qi became bored and also lowered his head to eat.

However, this gave Tao Zheng and their parents a shock. Tao Qi had actually come down to join them after being called by Xiao Rou and the two didn’t argue. Although Tao Qi still had a morning temper, he didn’t grumble like he did in the past. Instead, he obediently ate his food.

Mother Tao’s eyes kept shifting between Tan Rou and Tao Qi. She felt that the atmosphere between the two children seemed to have changed. It may seem strange but Tao Qi seemed to be suppressed?

Mr. Tao seemed to have understood something. He thought of what Tan Rou had said last night. She knew what she was doing and she had asked him to just treat it casually. He didn’t expect that after just one night, there would be such obvious results. She was indeed his precious little girl!

Mr. Tao cleared his throat, signalling for Mrs. Tao not to make a fuss. He tried to smooth things over. “It’s good that everyone’s here. Let’s eat!”

Mrs. Tao nodded, sat down, and handed Tan Rou the black pepper sausage that she had specially prepared. “Xiao Rou, you have to eat more of this. Otherwise, you’ll get hungry quickly when you’re tired from studying in school.”

Tan Rou smiled sweetly and didn’t reject Mother Tao’s kind offer. She picked up a roasted sausage with a fork and began to eat it deliciously. “I usually eat a lot in the morning and would never be hungry even until noon. It’s all thanks to the delicious breakfast mom makes!”

Mrs. Tao was happy to hear that. She looked at Tan Rou with loving eyes. She was more satisfied to see her daughter eat more than if having it on her own.

Tao Qi raised his brow. He smelled the aroma of the sausage and couldn’t help but look over.

Tan Rou noticed Tao Qi’s focused gaze, as if he wanted to take the sausage from her mouth. Her eyes rolled and she deliberately said, “Actually, one would be enough for me. It’s not good to waste so many of them.”

Tao Qi snorted coldly. “You wanted to have them all to yourself? We should share it so that everyone can eat it together!”

However, Tan Rou continued eating by herself as if she hadn’t heard him.

Tao Qi was angry. He glared at the sausage in front of tan Rou and shouted, “Hey! Give me one!”

Mrs. Tao chided him, “Little Qi! I’ve prepared one for you as well. Can’t you see your favourite small steak that’s right in front of you?”

Tao Qi ignored his mother’s dissuasion and continued to stare at the sausage, unwilling to give up. Compared to Tan Rou’s sausage, Tao Qi felt that the steak he had was no longer looking delicious. He was already sick of it. The sausage was so oily and fragrant and Tan Rou didn’t want to share it! She was so selfish!

Tao Zheng chuckled at the side. “You just want what’s in another person’s bowl. Why are you drooling over her food?”

Tao Qi didn’t care what his brother said and was exceptionally stubborn.

Tan Rou glanced at Tao Qi and raised an eyebrow. “What did you call me? Hello? I didn’t hear it wrong, did I?”

As if a switch had been triggered, Tao Qi’s expression turned awkward. He weakly glared at Tan Rou and lowered his head. He no longer had his eyes on the sausage.

Tan Rou didn’t let him off so easily. “Of course I can share the sausage with you, but you have to say something nice, right? Not only the sausage but I seem to have recalled that you promised me something last night…..”

Tao Qi suddenly raised his head, frowned, and shouted, “Don’t say it! Didn’t we agree to keep it a secret?”

Tan Rou nodded. “Yes, it is a secret. Now, do you still want a piece of it? It’s crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. It’s delicious.”

Tao Qi’s eyes fell on the roasted sausage again, and he was struggling internally.

He was a child to begin with, so it was normal for him to be a little greedy. After being teased by Tan Rou, Tao Qi felt like he had nothing to lose. It wasn’t the first time he called her that anyway, so it wouldn’t make a difference if he called her a few more times, right?

Thus, under the shocked gazes of the rest of them in the room, Tao Qi blushed and awkwardly said to Tan Rou, “Big sis … Sister, please give me a piece of that sausage?”

With that said, he gave up on himself and lowered his head to drink his porridge. He was blushing so much that it felt hot.
