Chapter 225: Chapter 225 - 225 225 Who is he?

225 225 Who is he?

“Yes, I know.” Tan Rou nodded.

“Also, in the future, if you can’t afford to offend tan Jing, just hide from her. She’s no longer on the same side as us. The road is broad. Let’s each go our own way. We’ll mind our own business.” Father Tao spoke coldly.

Tan Rou went back to class, and Tan Jing only returned after a long time. Seeing her in such a sorry state, she must have been tortured by Li Jia’s mother.

‘Let’s go our separate ways?’ Tan Rou thought to herself.

‘No, I won’t allow it. I want Tan Jing to have no way out.’

“Xiao Rou!” Mrs. Tao had been waiting at the door for a long time. Seeing that her daughter had returned safely, she finally relaxed.

“You scared me.”

Mr. Tao only told her about Tan Rou’s beating at school after he was done with the matter. Otherwise, she would have gone to the school to seek justice for her daughter.

“Mom, I’m fine. You didn’t have to worry.” Tan Rou reassured her mother.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Mrs. Tao immediately noticed the red mark on her arm. “You said you’re fine but it’s such a long mark! It must be very painful, right?” Mrs. Tao’s heart ached.

“It doesn’t hurt.” Tan Rou patiently explained, “I have a sensitive scene. It’ll turn red just by touching it. I didn’t let that woman catch me. I did this to myself.”

Mrs. Tao held her hand. “You child. Come in quickly, I’ll apply some ointment for you.”

Mrs. Tao’s hand was very warm and Tan Rou felt very comfortable holding it.

“Xiao Rou, if you have any grievances, you have to tell us. You said you have your own way this time, so we didn’t interfere, but you can’t continue doing so. No matter how powerful your friends are, and how they can help you, you still have to tell us about this. We’ll be your backup, understand?” Mrs. Tao said earnestly.

“I understand, mom.” Tan Rou agreed.

“I shouldn’t interfere too much in your life. You’ve grown up and have your own thoughts. I’m very pleased but are your friends reliable? Also, who is that person in the photo?” Mrs Tao was still worried.

Tan Rou knew that her family would definitely ask her about it. Now that the matter was resolved, there was no harm in telling them so that they wouldn’t worry.

“Do you still remember the nerve-soothing incense I made earlier?” Tan Rou said.

Mrs. Tao still remembered that it was all thanks to the nerve-soothing incense that she was able to sleep well. “I do. What about it?”

Tan Rou told her parents what she had said to the police at school.

“So that day, he came to me to ask if I had any nerve-soothing incense. Because of the urgency of the matter, Mr. Zhuang came to me directly, and in the end, he was photographed. My classmate’s grandfather was sick at that time, and I told him that I wanted to visit his grandfather at the hospital. Mr. Zhuang happened to be going to the hospital as well, and he had a car, so he gave me a ride.” Tan Rou processed the matter and told her parents. She didn’t want to tell them everything now. Some things were safer if fewer people knew.

Mrs. Tao was relieved. As long as they weren’t bad friends, she was fine with it.

Tan Rou hugged her mother’s arm and said coquettishly, “Mom, are you relieved now? Also, you don’t have to worry about the aftermath. The gentleman who was involved with it will not let them get away with it so easily.

“My daughter has been wronged.” Mrs. Tao said, patting her daughter’s head.

“Mom, don’t worry.” Tan Rou knew that her mother was worried about her. This time, she had not thought things through. Although she had told her parents in advance, it would definitely still be difficult for them to see those words on the headlines.

“There won’t be a next time.” Tan Rou secretly swore.

Tao Qi came back. After he saw Tan Rou, his expression didn’t look good. When he saw those comments on the internet, he doubted Tan Rou. When others scolded her, he also echoed them. Now that the truth was out, he didn’t know where to hide.

Why did he not believe her? Little Tao Qi asked himself, ‘why can’t I trust her a little more every time she’s been framed?’ He clearly wanted to believe her, but he still ended up scolding her along with others.

Tan Rou looked at his expression and knew that he was still feeling awkward. After all, he was still a child and did not understand the evil of the world. He could only see what was in front of him, and it was normal for him to be used by others.

“Where’s elder brother?” Tan Rou didn’t bother to argue with him.

“Why don’t I see him?”

“Your second brother heard that you were beaten up in school and went out nervously. He said that he wanted to buy you some self-defense equipment.” Mrs. Tao talked about what Tao Zheng was doing.

Tan Rou didn’t need any self-defense tools. Was there anyone in school who could hurt her? However, she was still very touched. “I can’t bring those tools to school.”

Mrs. Tao glanced at Mr. Tao, who understood what she meant and nodded at her. It was time to protect their precious daughter.
