Protecting you is more important than openly loving you.
This sentence.
This rekindled Wan Shuxue's hopes for extinguishing her secret crush, and she looked up at Tang Baozhu.
Tang Baozhu looked down at Wan Shuxue and comforted her, "Alright, don't be sad, don't let Fourth Brother down."
"Come with me to get something good to eat. See what Shi Ning likes to eat and get some for her, otherwise she won't get anything if she comes late."
This was a reminder to Wan Shuxue to do nothing now, wait for Shi Ning to arrive, and then do what she had originally planned.
This also serves as a reminder to Wan Shuxue that Tang Qingshu is currently with Lin Chunyan only because he is being threatened, and because he is being threatened in order to protect her.
Wan Shuxue immediately regained her fighting spirit, "Okay."
there.
A maid came over and said to Lin Chunyan, "The old lady requests your presence."
Tang Qingshu was anxious and didn't notice the servants' attitude towards Lin Chunyan, so he took her hand and went to find Old Madam Shi.
"Grandma Shi," Tang Qingshu greeted her warmly.
Madam Shi glanced at Tang Qingshu, then asked Lin Chunyan, "Xiaoyan, are you really dating Qingshu?"
To make a good impression, Tang Qingshu deliberately squeezed Lin Chunyan's hand tightly. "Grandma Shi, this is Yanyan, the girl I've been pursuing. We're officially dating now, and we're thinking about the future."
The Shi family and the Tang family had a strained relationship in the past, maintaining only a superficial connection.
Tang Qingshu felt intimidated when he saw the elderly couple.
With Lin Chunyan by my side, I immediately felt much more confident.
If Old Madam Shi treats him badly, he shouldn't blame her; after he married Lin Chunyan, he treated her badly too.
Madam Shi glanced at Tang Qingshu and said with a smile, "You have good taste. Xiaoyan is a sensible and filial child. Treat her well."
Thinking he had gained Madam Shi's approval, Tang Qingshu quickly replied, "I will."
Old Madam Shi asked Lin Chunyan, "Where is your father?"
Lin Chunyan's father was a follower of Shi Guoqiang.
Madam Shi had something to discuss with Shi Guoqiang.
Lin Chunyan, "I'll take you to him."
Then, after telling Tang Qingshu, she left with Old Madam Shi.
Tang Qingshu watched their departing figures.
I don't know what they were talking about, but Lin Chunyan did look very well-behaved, while the old lady bowed her head, looking very kind.
They do look very harmonious.
Madam Shi did not feel ashamed or treat Lin Chunyan coldly just because she came from a rural town and her father was a construction worker. She did not think it would be better not to bring her back.
He couldn't help but say to the people around him, "Home is really nice right now. They don't look down on Yan Yan's background as a rural girl, nor do they mind that she has a son who works as a construction worker."
Some people nodded in agreement, and also praised Tang Qingshu for not disliking Lin Chunyan.
Good social skills make for a good atmosphere.
Suddenly, someone looked up in one direction, raised their chin, and asked with great interest.
"Fourth Young Master, is that your younger sister who just returned?"
Upon hearing this, Tang Qingshu looked up and followed his gaze.
Seeing Tang Ruozhu standing at the pastry area, her eyes sparkling as she looked at the exquisite, cute, and delicious pastries.
She even took the strawberry cake that the maid had given her on top, which she considered a prized pastry.
It's like never having eaten strawberry cake before.
Who comes to this kind of event if not to make connections?
Tang Qingshu felt extremely ashamed and was unwilling to admit it, saying, "She's just a biology sister. If my grandmother hadn't insisted on acknowledging her, I wouldn't have a sister like her."
The man looked at Tang Qingshu strangely. "Fourth Young Master is so strange. He doesn't mind Lin Chunyan when he's dating, but he's disgusted by his own sister?"
The others also looked at Tang Qingshu with curiosity.
This sentence, and the gazes of these people.
Slap! Slap! Like an invisible hand, it suddenly landed on Tang Qingshu's face.
Make him feel ashamed and embarrassed.
Tang Qingshu was suddenly startled. This situation was somewhat similar to Tang Ruozhu's.
However, their family felt that Tang Ruozhu was not presentable and was shameful, so they did not want to mention having such a sister.
The way everyone looked at Tang Qingshu was strange, scrutinizing, and with a fleeting hint of contempt and mockery.
Tang Qingshu felt very uncomfortable and snorted, "If Tang Ruozhu were as outstanding and good as Yan Yan, I wouldn't have said that."
"But she's very vicious. She targets Baozhu openly and secretly, and even plotted to drive Baozhu out of the Tang family. That's why I hate her."
This statement did little to dispel the contempt and ridicule.
Some people still think he's out of his mind, can't he tell the difference between a blood-related sister and a non-blood-related sister?
Besides, she was originally a pampered young lady who grew up spoiled and never had to suffer.
As a result of being switched at birth, he was born into a remote mountain village, a little bitter gourd in a temple.
A normal person would definitely be angry and resentful. Instead of making amends after finding her, they feel that she took away the affection and love of the fake heiress and are very resentful towards her.
Who isn't wicked?
If it were them, they would be even more vicious than Tang Ruozhu.
However, these words could not be spoken aloud; they could only silently express their contempt for Tang Qingshu and the Tang family's actions.
Tang Baozhu was carrying the strawberry cake that Shi Ning had specially prepared for her.
They said this cake was only served at state banquets.
I was just about to happily take a bite.
Tang Baozhu's soft voice rang out beside her, "Don't act like you've never seen the world before. You came here and ate the best cake."
"It would bring shame to the Tang family."
There's no need to pretend in front of her.
Tang Ruozhu tilted her head to look at her.
She hasn't refuted it yet.
The maid who hadn't left yet frowned as she looked at Tang Baozhu. "This cake was prepared by my young lady for Miss Tang."
"The Queen Mother ordered this to be specially made and sent to Miss Tang. She wants to eat it, but she can't get it yet."
One sentence made Tang Baozhu's face turn ashen, alternating between pale and flushed, looking quite unpleasant.
Tang Ruozhu happily took a bite of the strawberry cake, finding it sweet and delicious. "Indeed, my benefactor is the best."
"Even when he's not around, he can still slap me in the face."
It tastes even sweeter.
Tang Baozhu looked at her and said, "Shi Ning hasn't arrived yet, has she? Besides, this is Lin Chunyan's business, what does it have to do with her?"
"If Lin Chunyan hadn't been dating Fourth Brother and trying to please you, you wouldn't have gotten this strawberry cake."
Tang Baozhu wanted to save face, "Do you know what Fourth Brother said to them?"
Tang Ruozhu ignored her and focused on eating the delicious strawberry cake.
Tang Baozhu: "Fourth Brother told them that you are just a biology major, and if he had a choice, he would only want you as his sister."
Tang Ruozhu remained silent.
Tang Baozhu, who wanted to see her angry and her defenses crumble, felt like she was punching cotton.
The reaction backfired, making me even angrier.
"Miss Shi has come down; the family reunion banquet is about to begin."
One sentence drew everyone's attention to the direction of the voice.
