Ms. Tan Is The Real Boss

234 234 Her Broken Brain

“That’s true.” Chen Yi still couldn’t calm her anger. “It’s because of her that our daughter has to live in that broken place for more than ten years. If it weren’t for her, our daughter would have come back long ago. Why would she have to live such a hard life?”

Tan Song also felt a little guilty toward Tan Jing, but for the sake of the Tan family, he had no choice but to let his daughter suffer.

“Alright, alright. I’ll make it up to her in the future.” Tan Song quickly stopped the conversation.

Tan Jing happened to hear everything before she entered the room. After she returned to the room, she kept thinking. Was Tan Rou’s brain broken? However, she had gotten first place in the last exam and even restored the surveillance footage in front of the principal and the others. This time, it was the same. She had no idea where Tan Rou had gotten so much evidence to beat Li Jia up. Was this something a person with a bad brain could do?

Tan Jing had to check it out. She would not be able to get anything out of Chen Yi if she asked. They were talking behind her back because they did not want her to know. If she asked, they definitely wouldn’t tell her the truth.

Fortunately, she was no longer a poor little girl. She was now the rich and powerful eldest miss of the Tan family. As long as she spent more money, she would be found out sooner or later.

The second week after Wei Ling’s return, Song Lin came back as well. The moment Song Lin returned, everyone in the school, except the teachers and the Dean, knew about it. This was because he brought a big gift for Tan Jing, it made Tan Jing’s heart flutter so badly that she would have fainted.

“Oh my God, such a big piece of Sapphire! He Ling was extremely envious. “How much would that cost?”

Zhao Ru wanted to touch the box, but Tan Jing closed it and Zhao Ru lost her chance.

Only Wei Ling was disinterested. She had long seen Tan Jing’s true self and now she was only pretending to be polite to Tan Jing for revenge. She was not interested in anything else; no matter how good it was, and she felt that Tan Jing was not worthy of it.

“Do you like it?” Song Lin was very handsome. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be the school hunk alongside Lu Qing. He opened the box. “This piece of aquamarine is of the best quality, both in size and texture. It suits you very well.”

Tan Jing looked reserved on the surface, but in fact, she was already overjoyed. Although she did not know much about jewelry, such a large piece of Sapphire was definitely costly. Why didn’t she see Song Lin being so generous before?

“This is to celebrate you finding your biological parents.” Song Lin said. When he was abroad, he always paid attention to what was happening to Tan Jing. After knowing that she had found her biological parents, he was happy for her for a long time and specially bought her this gemstone necklace.

After that, when he heard that she had nothing to do with Lu Qing, he was so happy that he almost flew back from abroad early.

“Thank you, Song Lin.” Tan Jing loved the necklace.

Although Chen Yi had prepared a lot of things for her, there weren’t many pieces of jewelry. They were all children’s toys. She didn’t like them. She liked valuable jewelry. The more expensive, the better.

“Oh my God, she really dared to accept it.” Li Li winked at Tan Rou. “You don’t even know if she’s worthy of that gem.”

With just a glance, Tan Rou knew that the gem wasn’t a good one. Due to the instability of the Aquamarine, many businesses would add other elements into it when making jewelry. Outsiders could not tell, but experts could see the problem with the gem if they looked carefully. She did not know if Song Lin did it on purpose or not.

“It’s none of our business.” Tan Rou copied the words that the teacher had given her. “It’s not for you. Don’t be so excited.”

They were talking in a loud voice, so Tan Jing and the others heard them.

“I really like your gift.” Tan Jing’s eyes curved, and her smile was like a flower.

Song Lin felt his heart beating so fast that it felt like it was going to jump out of his chest. He grabbed Tan Jing’s hand and said in a domineering manner, “In the past, when there were others who bullied you, it was because I was not around. Now that I’m back, I will not allow anyone to bully you again!”

When he spoke, his eyes were fixed on Tan Rou, and the threat in his words were obvious.

Tan Rou just wanted to roll her eyes at him and ask him to get lost with Tan Jing.

Xu Yan whispered to Tan Rou again, “Be careful of Song Lin. He’s not a good person. As long as he wants to do something, he will do it by any means necessary.”

Li Li was also very worried about Tan Rou. “Rou, you have to be careful!”

Tan Rou did not take it to heart. Those who could hang out with Tan Jing would not be anyone who was capable. Song Lin was a little more ruthless, but that did not mean he had a brain. Otherwise, he would not have been dragged away by Tan Jing.

“No… no one bullied me.” Tan Jing shyly retracted her hand. “You don’t have to stand up for me.”

Li Li wanted to vomit. She secretly said to Tan Rou, “I’m serious, even my dad’s old brick tea is not as strong as the green tea fragrance coming from her.”

Tan Rou was amused by her. “Then, you’d better ask your dad to drink it quickly. After all, it’s an old brick tea. If he doesn’t drink it soon, it’ll grow moldy.”
