100 100 Good Acting
Once Father Tao understood what his daughter had in mind, he could show off his skills without worry.
Hearing how determined Father Tao was, Tan Rou guessed that he would probably intervene in this matter.
Tan Rou didn’t expect Mr. Tao to make a move. On one hand, she had never mentioned this to any of them previously. Mr. And Mrs. Tao didn’t know what happened in their previous life. The rebirth that Tan Rou had was miraculous and she couldn’t tell them the truth.
To Mr. And Mrs. Tao’s knowledge, it wasn’t a blood feud over the destruction of her family but how the Tan family had abused and humiliated her and the Tao family.
Tan Rou had thought that the Tao family would choose to stay away from the Tan family and never be in contact ever again.
After all, the Tan family was powerful. If the Tao family couldn’t afford to offend them, they could still hide from them. However, Mr. Tao’s attitude today showed that he wanted to take revenge for Tan Rou. It seemed like her maturity and obedience in this life had inspired Mr. And Mrs. Tao’s love for their daughter.
She wondered if they had been completely disappointed in her in her previous life.
On the other hand, Tan Rou used to think that the Tao family was just an ordinary family. She never thought that an ordinary family could compete with the Tan family. Even if Mr. And Mrs. Tao wanted to, they were probably powerless. Tan Rou could not bear to let the Tao family strike a rock with an egg. She only wanted to fight the Tao family with her own abilities.
However, there was a turn of events tonight. The Tao family was not as ordinary as they looked on the surface. Father Tao’s strength was unfathomable.
Tan Rou was not entirely cheered up by this truth. She really wanted to protect the Tao family.
She had only realised that Mr. Tao’s abilities were extraordinary but she couldn’t expose him and ask him how capable he was. Tan Rou didn’t want to break the family atmosphere that Mr. And Mrs. Tao had worked so hard to maintain all these years and so she wasn’t sure.
If Father Tao used his methods to compete with the Tan family, in the event of an accident, the Tan family would be desperate and fight Father Tao to death. Wouldn’t she cause the Tao family to suffer once again?
If Mr. Tao was powerful enough, he could help Tan Rou take a shortcut but she didn’t dare to gamble on the Tao family’s future. She would rather take it slow and be harder on herself than let her family suffer any more accidents.
Tan Rou kept thinking about how to dispel Mr. Tao’s thoughts without exposing what she had already noticed. She said hesitantly, “Dad, don’t be sad about what I just said. I’m all grown up now and I have the ability to protect myself. Just leave it to me. I’ll take revenge on my own.”
Mr. Tao didn’t know that his cover was on the verge of collapse. He thought that Tan Rou was just comforting him, so he smiled faintly. “It’s not entirely on you. As your father, it’s my responsibility to protect you. How can I not care that the Tan family is bullying the Tao family because they think that we have nobody?”
Then, he chuckled and covered it up. “Besides, I’m not very capable. I might not be able to do anything at all. I’m just fulfilling my father’s wishes. You don’t have to think too much about it. Your main priority now is to study well. Go back to your room and study!”
Mr. Tao was afraid that he would reveal something if he said too much. He urged Tan Rou to go back to her room, unwilling to talk about this topic anymore and cause trouble for his child.
Tan Rou was speechless. ‘Dad, just by looking at the calligraphy and paintings hanging in your study, you don’t look like someone who’s ordinary!’
But perhaps Father Tao was just a close friend to someone who was wealthy but didn’t know much about the business world?
The more Tan Rou thought about it, the more worried she became. She was afraid that Mr. And Mrs. Tao would do everything they could to seek justice for her because they loved their daughter so much. That wouldn’t be worth it.
However, since Father Tao had already said so much to her, Tan Rou could only sigh helplessly. She decided to investigate further and find an opportunity to stop Father Tao.
Father Tao watched as Tan Rou walked to the door. He suddenly remembered something and called out to her, “Oh right, I heard that you know the third young master of the Zhuang family? ”
When Tan Song came to the Tao family to cause trouble, he mentioned this matter. Mother Tao was puzzled and so she told Father Tao.
Tan Rou came back to her senses and said, “Yes. I came to know about a divine doctor by chance. He introduced me to Zhuang Liu in order for me to treat him.”
Mr. Tao raised his eyebrows in surprise. “Could that doctor be Bai Jing?”
Tan Rou was also surprised. “Dad, you know Bai Jing?”
