Chapter 177 - 177 Fight for love

177 Fight for love

Tan Rou was a little touched. She had come all the way here for nothing but revenge and to make up for the stupidity of her previous life. No matter how many traps and slanders there were, she could laugh it off and then make them pay back double.

However, it was undeniable that she had met many good people. First, she had gained Uncle Bai’s respect and appreciation, which allowed her spices and medicinal herbs to be put to good use.

Then, Zhuang Liu took care of her and helped her with all his heart. Mr. Fang must have seen through her dispute with the Tan family and was comforting her as well.

It was unfortunate for her to carry the hatred of her previous life, but wasn’t it a kind of fortune to be able to meet these noble people on the road to revenge?

Tan Rou knew how to be grateful. She knew that if Mr Fang didn’t mean what he said for her own good, he could just pretend that he didn’t know anything and just acted to be respectful for Zhuang Liu’s sake. Instead, he took the risk of being rejected and even told her that being stretched too out may break her.

Tan Rou picked up the teacup and thanked Mr. Fang sincerely, “Thank you for your reminder. I have things to do and enemies that I can’t forgive, but I’ll remember what you said. I’ll protect myself and won’t be stubborn.”

Mr. Fang nodded in satisfaction. “You’re also a child, and it’s not a bad thing to have an obsession. Everyone has their own inner demons, and it’s already amazing that you can face them bravely.”

Mr. Fang thought of Tan Rou’s performance last time and smiled. “To be honest, even though I think I’ve met many people, I’ve rarely seen a girl as bold as you. There’s something about you that’s very attractive. At that time, I even thought to myself about how Zhuang Liu came to know someone like you? She’s not afraid of anything, but she’s also very smart. Hahahahahaha…..”

Zhuang Liu had been quietly listening to their conversation, and his eyes lingered on Tan Rou, unwilling to leave. Hearing Mr. Fang’s words, he smiled and said, “I like her like this. She’s like an invincible little sun. She has taught me a lot.”

Tan Rou smiled. “I’m not as good as you say. I just don’t want to be wronged by them anymore. I only want them to get a taste of their own medicine and get revenge everytime they provoke me. I’ll fight back for my own sake.”

Mr. Fang laughed. “Nice! You are a courageous woman! Come, let’s drink tea instead of wine. I shall salute you for your magnanimity and courage!”

The three of them had a good chat. During this time, Zhuang Liu quietly approached Tan Rou and whispered, “I’m not worried that you’ll break easily. You’ve always been smart and won’t hurt yourself, but I still feel uneasy. No matter what, you can do whatever you want, but remember to make yourself happy, okay?”

Tan Rou was silent for a moment before she smiled.

She had always wanted to take revenge and constantly asked herself not to take it lightly. Her greatest pleasure was to see Tan Jing and the Tan family suffer in front of her. Even in her dreams, she wanted to return the pain of her previous life to the Tan family.

But, this evening, the breeze blew. The fragrance of bamboo leaves and tea assailed her nose. Zhuang Liu approached her and told her softly to remember to be happy.

Tan Rou had to admit that in this life, she was not only moved by revenge, but also by true love. In her previous life, she had probably already obtained the love and care that she had been yearning for from the Tao family and these friends.

This was her reward.

Tan Rou’s heart was very clear now. She was determined to spend the rest of her life well. Not only that, she also wanted to enjoy this hard-earned true love and protect the Tao family.

She used to live for revenge, but now she was going to live for love. If the Tan family wanted to destroy all this, then they shall not blame her for killing them!

A person who had received love would be much crazier in order to protect his love than a person who was full of hatred.

This was a belief that Tan Jing, who only wanted fame and fortune and was unscrupulous, would never understand.

After the three of them finished their tea and rested enough, Mr. Fang asked the kitchen to prepare some dishes for Zhuang Liu and Tan Rou to taste. There was no menu and all of the dishes had been improvised according to the seasonal ingredients available.

Tan Rou satisfyingly tasted them one by one, and as she ate, she began to laugh.

Zhuang Liu felt that Tan Rou was especially cute like this, so he asked softly, “What’s wrong? You’re happy that you get to enjoy something so delicious?”

Tan Rou licked her lips. “Of course I’m happy, but I remember that there’s a little glutton at home who’s more gluttonous than me. I’ll pack some for him later.”

Tan Rou felt quite happy at the thought of Tao Qi jumping up and down in anxiety during the day because she had been accused of cheating.

The little brat didn’t let her down. She would bring some good food home to reward him.
