On the other side, Li Li was calling Tan Rou, and she didnât care whether Tan Rou was listening seriously or not; she just kept talking.
âTan Rou, let me tell you, Jiang Minâs sister has found a super ugly guy to be her fiancé,â Li Li said dramatically. âThat guy looks like a toad, even Xiao Chen is a thousand times better-looking than him!â
Xiao Chen was the least good-looking person in Jiang Minâs team, not that he was ugly, just plain-looking.
Tan Rou felt that Li Li was exaggerating, âLi Li, I know you have high standards and like handsome guys, but you canât expect everyone to like only handsome guys. Maybe Jiang Minâs fiancé is just plain-looking; you donât need to degrade him like that.â
Li Li said excitedly, âHe really is ugly! And not only is he ugly, but heâs also mean-spirited. He keeps arguing with Jiang Min, making her very unhappy.â
Tan Rou didnât see anything wrong with that, not everyone can be as harmonious as she and Zhuang Liu, âLi Li, please donât be jealous of others. I know youâre anxious about finding a boyfriend, but you shouldnât put down other peopleâs boyfriends.â
Li Li said, âTan Rou, this guy is definitely not good news! You need to come here and see for yourself, then we can deal with him together. We canât let him marry Jiang Min.â
Tan Rou knew Li Liâs personality; sometimes she indeed couldnât accept some things, which was why she had encountered so many setbacks in her quest for a boyfriend.
âAlright, alright, Iâm coming now,â Tan Rou said helplessly, âDonât talk bad about him. Iâll be there soon, letâs talk when I arrive.â
Li Li urged, âHurry up, if youâre late, Jiang Min and the others might leave.â
After hanging up the phone, Tan Rou shrugged at Zhuang Liu and said, âLi Li says Jiang Minâs sister has got a boyfriend who looks like a toad, and sheâs asking us to come stop their wedding.â
Zhuang Liu was amused by Li Li, âAfter all these years, her personality hasnât changed at all, has it?â
Before he and Tan Rou got together, Li Li had already been Tan Rouâs good friend; she was very protective of Tan Rou. If Tan Rou faced any unfairness, she was always the first to stand up for her.
Zhuang Liu had a good impression of Li Li; he also hoped to have friends who truly cared for Tan Rou by her side, so he pulled some strings to give a little business to Li Liâs parentsâ company, which was now doing very well, making Li Li quite the wealthy second-generation rich kid.
However, Li Liâs personality was indeed difficult to deal with. Zhuang Liu had never met anyone as meddling as Li Li; if it wasnât for her friendsâ significant backgrounds, this young lady would probably have been eradicated by society long ago.
Zhuang Liu could see that Tan Rou cared a lot about Li Li; otherwise, she wouldnât defend Li Li in everything. According to Tan Rou, Li Li was her first peer friend in high school and her best friend. If possible, Tan Rou would protect Li Li for a lifetime.
One doesnât need too many friends in a lifetime, but one must have very close friends. Li Li and Tan Rou are such friends.
âLetâs go,â Tan Rou said with a sigh. âWe better hurry and stop this girl before she causes any trouble.â
Zhuang Liu said jealously, âYou treat her better than you treat me.â
Tan Rou pinched Zhuang Liuâs face with a smile, âSheâs just a kid who never grows up, arenât you a kid as well?â
Zhuang Liu replied, âYeah, Iâm a kid too.â
Tan Rou certainly didnât indulge Zhuang Liu, she started walking towards Li Li first, looking back to say, âDonât act spoiled here!â
Zhuang Liu was deeply envious of Li Li but couldnât prevent it; he could only follow behind grudgingly.
When Tan Rou and her group arrived, Liang Lu and Lu Qing were already there, and Tian Tian and the others, who lived further away, were still on their way.
When Feng Jiao saw Tan Rou and Zhuang Liu, his eyes widened, âYou⦠you areâ¦â
Zhuang Liu smiled gently, âNice to meet you, Zhuang Liu.â
Tan Rou smiled faintly, âTan Rou.â
Feng Jiao was clearly familiar with them; he said excitedly, âAh Min, how could you not tell me you know Mr. Zhuang Liu and Miss Tan Rou?â
Jiang Min asked strangely, âWhy should I tell you that?â
Unperturbed, Feng Jiao extended his hand in greeting, âNice to meet you, Iâm Feng Jiao.â
