Chapter 427: The Attentive Zhuang Liu
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
After Tao Qi finished school, they could prepare to eat. Tao Qi was in elementary school, and there were no tutoring classes arranged after class, so he was dismissed from school at 430. When he learned that he was going to Zhuang Liu’s house for dinner, he was so excited that he jumped up and down.
“Are we really going to Brother Zhuang’s house for dinner?” Tao Qi asked again, “What gift should I bring? Can 1 give you a painting that 1 drew?”
Tao Zheng rolled his eyes as he drove. What was going on? Why did Zhuang Liu bewitch the two of their siblings? That male vixen@ Why were they all siding with Zhuang Liu?
“You don’t need to bring a gift.” Tao Zheng said coldly, “We have already prepared the gifts for the guests. Besides, we didn’t specially come to Zhuang Liu’s house today. Zhuang Liu prepared a family version of your third sister’s birthday party and invited us for dinner.”
“Then Second Brother, drive faster! I still have to attend my sister’s birthday party,” Tao Qi urged. “1 couldn’t talk to my sister properly at noon because I had class.”
“We can talk about it when we get home tonight,” Tao Zheng said.”
“That’s different!” Tao Qi was very concerned about the sense of ceremony. “There are some important words that must be said at the banquet. I have a lot to say to my sister.”
Tao Zheng was annoyed by him and had no choice but to say, “Okay, 1’11 drive faster.”
Once he got out of the car, Tao Qi ran to Zhuang Liu’s house. When he saw the balloons and flowers in the yard, his mouth turned into one similar to a fish’s. “Wow, it’s really beautiful! It’s just like a wedding.”
Tao Zheng couldn’t help but say, “Don’t talk nonsense. How is this a wedding?!”
Tan Rou heard Tao Qi’s voice and came out to welcome them. When Tao Qi saw his sister, he rushed forward as if he hadn’t seen Tan Rou for months. “Sister, 1 miss you so much!”
“Didn’t we just meet at noon?” Tan Rou gently patted his head and asked with a smile.
Tao Qi pouted. “But 1 have to go to school. I wanted to take leave to celebrate your birthday, but you didn’t let me skip school.”
“You have to study hard.” Tan Rou said, “You can’t delay your studies because of my birthday.”
Tao Qi did not agree. He muttered, “You skipped school too? ”
“Come in quickly. The food is ready.” The two mothers came out to call them.
The few of them chatted and laughed as they walked into the house. The fragrance of the food drifted far away and smelled very tempting.
The Tao family glanced at the dishes on the table and realized that all the dishes were Tan Ron’s favorite. They were all Tan Ron’s favorite style, from the tablecloth to the cutlery.
Tao Zheng could not help but admire Zhuang Liu. They had lived with Tan Rou for a few months and might not have figured out Tan Ron’s preferences, but Zhuang Liu knew it clearly.
The lunch was for the guests. It looked good, but it wasn’t necessarily delicious. Tan Rou didn’t like flashy things, so she didn’t eat much. This dinner, however, was arranged according to her preferences, so Tan Rou ate very comfortably and inadvertently overate.
Zhuang Liu was indeed a meticulous person. He had been putting food on Tan Rou’s plate during the meal. If it were a dish that Tan Rou liked, he would directly place it right in front of her.
The sky gradually darkened, and they were almost done eating. Suddenly, there was the sound of an explosion outside.
Tao Qi was shocked. He covered his ears and asked, “What exploded?”
Tan Rou could tell what was going on. She also saw a flash of light through the window. “You even prepared fireworks?”
Zhuang Liu smiled and whispered, “Let’s go upstairs to take a look. The view upstairs would be better.”
Tan Rou was quite surprised because fireworks were forbidden in here. She did not know how Zhuang Liu had gotten them.
“Alright!” Tan Rou was thrilled. She hadn’t seen fireworks in a long time, and she didn’t have the mood to appreciate fireworks in the past. She wanted to take advantage of today’s opportunity to enjoy the beauty of fireworks.
Zhuang Liu’s house had an elevator. It was specially installed for his convenience. However, he did not take the elevator today. Instead, he accompanied Tan Rou as they walked up to the balcony on the top floor.
Whenever he was by Tan Rou’s side, as long as he could walk, he would choose to walk. He wanted Tan Rou to get used to the feeling of him being by her side..
