260 260 Zhuang Liuâs Assumptions
âXiao Rou.â Zhuang Liu smiled warmly. âWhat a coincidence.â
Tan Rou was surprised to see him. âWhy are you here?â
âCould it be that he followed me here? No way! I only found out about this resort when I arrived here. How did Zhuang Liu get the news in advance?â
âWhen I heard you were going on a vacation, I remembered that I havenât been on vacation in a long time. I got Xiao Mo to book a room at the resort. I didnât expect to be neighbors with you.â Zhuang Liu explained.
In fact, he had booked rooms in all the resorts available. He also sent people to keep an eye on Tan Rouâs family. As soon as they left in the morning, Zhuang Liuâs car was already on the road. Ultimately, because Tan Jingâs appearance delayed them, he arrived earlier than them.
âOh, then, have a good rest.â
Zhuang Liu saw that she had no intention of inviting him, so he planned to strike first.
Just as he was about to speak, Mrs. Taoâs voice came from downstairs. âTan Rou, Weâre going to have a picnic.â
Tan Rou hurriedly bid Zhuang Liu farewell. âThird Master, Iâll be leaving first. My mother is calling for me.â
âGo ahead.â Zhuang Liu did not insist on keeping her either. âHave fun.â
âYou too.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
After Tan Rou left, the pressure around Zhuang Liu dropped. Xiao Mo braced himself and pushed him down the stairs. Fortunately, the resort had an elevator.
âMiss Tan Rouâs parents donât look like ordinary employees and housewives.â Xiao Mo voiced his doubts. âPeople who earn less than 50,000 a month wouldnât come here for leisure. I donât think Miss Tan Rouâs father even earns 50,000 a month.â
âThe Tao family⦠The Tao family of the Capitalâ¦.â Zhuang Liu thought of these two families. âWhich family owns this resort?â
Xiao Mo said, âThe Tao family from the Capital invested in this resortâ He was enlightened.
âCould it beâ¦â
âItâs just an assumption. I think I saw Tan Song and his daughter when I came.â
âThe person in charge of the Tao family from the Capital is here today.â
Xiao Mo continued, âThe Tao family from the Capital started to get in touch with the Tan family when they broke off the engagement with you.â
They were rivals and partners in business, and their whereabouts were very important. As Xiao Moâs personal assistant, he needed to know the whereabouts of their opponents and partners and report them to Zhuang Liu.
âWhy did Tan Song especially bring Tan Jing here?â Xiao Mo didnât understand.
âCould it be that Tan Song wants to groom Tan Jing into the heir of the Tan family? Sheâs of average and wouldnât make a good businessman.â
âAfter breaking off the engagement with me, the Tao family from the capital came looking for them. No matter how you think about it, thereâs something fishy about it.â
Zhuang Liu laughed. âNow that Tan Song brought Tan Jing out alone, it must be the request of the Tao family from the Capital.â
Xiao Moâs brain worked a little faster this time. âIt canât be that Tan Jing wants to marry someone from that Tao family, right?â
âThatâs not impossible.â Zhuang Liu said coldly.
âAh?â Xiao Mo felt that his brain was not working properly again.
âWhy would the Tao family from the Capital take a fancy to the tiny Tan family? Plus, does Tan Jingeally have the qualifications to join the Tao family? I heard the Tao family is quite strict about getting a wife.â
âWhat if this is just a trap? How would you deal with the Tan family if you want to mess with them?â Zhuang Liu asked Xiao Mo.
âMake things difficult for them. Cut off their business and let them suffer without end to it.â Xiao Mo gave a simple answer.
âIf it were me, Iâd hold them up high first, then throw them down ruthlessly into a bottomless pit. They will never be able to relive their glory ever again.â
Xiao Mo was a little scared. As expected of the Third Young Master, Xiao Mo was too simple-minded.
Find out what Tan Song said to the people he met.â Zhuang Liu instructed.
âIâll look it up now.â Xiao Mo went out first.
Zhuang Liu was bored staying in his room alone. He had come after Tan Rou. Now that Tan Rou was not around, he had no interest in staying alone in his room. He controlled his wheelchair to go out and look for Tan Rou.
Not long after, he found Tan Rouâs family on an open grassland. There werenât many people at the resort now, so only their family was there. They had already prepared everything and started a picnic.
