224 224 Lets Stay In Our Own Path

Since she had already said so, Mr. Tao no longer pressed the school for an answer. He spoke a few more words to Director Zhang before the father and daughter duo left the princ.i.p.als office.

On the way, Mr. Tao looked at his obedient and sensible daughter and felt his heart ache again. In the past, her life in the Tan family was not good. Now that she was back, they did not protect her well either. She was accused of cheating, with rumors of her spreading online, and was beaten up in school. They only found out about the situation when others informed them. They were too pa.s.sive.

He had to arrange for some people to protect Xiao Rou. Father Tao thought to himself, I have only one daughter, so I have to protect her well.

Daddy!

A familiar voice interrupted Father Taos thoughts. He turned around and saw Tan Jing, whom he had not seen for a long time. This made his already bad mood even worse.

Daddy! Tan Jing unconsciously leaned closer to him. Why did you come to school personally?

She felt indignant. In the past, when she was with the Tao family, Mr. Tao never came to school, and every parent-teacher meeting was attended by Mrs. Tao. She always thought that Mr. Tao was too busy with work to attend, but now that something happened to Tan Rou, he came to school immediately.

d.a.m.n it, whats so good about this b.i.t.c.h Tan Rou? Why did she have all the good things? All of them loved her. How many people had she poured magic soup into?

Miss Tan Jing, Ive already made it clear last time that were no longer father and daughter, or rather, weve never been related by blood, so please dont call me dad. Gather Tao said in a distant tone. Of course, if you cant bring yourself to call me uncle, you can also call me Mr. Tao.

Dad, how could you be so cruel? Tan Jings eyes turned red.

Weve had years of father-daughter relations.h.i.+p, all of it is just over like that?

When you decided to leave after knowing that your biological parents were rich, did you think about our father-daughter relations.h.i.+p that lasted for many years? Father Tao asked.

Tan Jing lowered her head. Her eyes were filled with ruthlessness. She clenched her fists. I understand. I wont call you daddy anymore.

Tan Rou must have said something to the Tao family. Otherwise, they wouldnt be so heartless! Tan Jing s.h.i.+fted the blame to Tan Rou.

Mr. Tao already knew Tan Jings true colors. He had heard some things from Director Zhang and had secretly asked someone to investigate it. Although Tan Jing was not involved in the whole process, according to Tan Jings personality, she was probably the one who had pushed the progress of the entire incident behind the scenes.

At the thought that his daughter was going to attend the same school as this evil person, Mr. Tao became worried. He lifted Tan Rous arm and asked, Does your arm still hurt?

Tan Rou shook her head gently. Dad, it really doesnt hurt. It looks serious, but I dont feel anything at all.

Tan Jing looked at Father Tao in this state and then looked at the b.l.o.o.d.y wound on her arm. Her heart was filled with hatred. Wasnt she the one who was heavily injured? He didnt even look at it.

Its good that youre fine. Mr. Tao was slightly relieved. In the future, dont shoulder everything by yourself. You have to tell mom and dad. Well always be your support.

Yes. Tan Rou felt touched. She finally had a family that belonged to her and loved her. She had done something wrong in her previous life, so she had to make it up to her family in this life.

With this delay, Li Jias mother came out of the princ.i.p.als office. When she saw Tan Jing standing there, she struggled to break free from the security guards and rushed to Tan Jing.

Jingjing, please help Jiajia. Arent you the young miss of the Tan family? As long as your father puts in the word, Jiajia will be fine. Li Jias mother grabbed Tan Jings injured arm with great force.

Li Jia and Tan Jing are very good friends, tan Rou whispered.

Mr. Tao already knew about it. When the rumor monger was caught, Mr. Tao sent someone to investigate Li Jia and found out that she was just a young girl with no background. However, she had a very good relations.h.i.+p with Tan Jing. Tan Jing even allowed her mother to stay in a high-end nursing home.

However, this woman didnt look like a patient at all, except for being a little thin. She looked lively.

Since they had something to say, the father and daughter of the Tao family wouldnt disturb them and gave them s.p.a.ce.

Xiao Rou, Ill send you back to cla.s.s. Mom and dad will protect you from now on. We wont let you get hurt in the slightest, Father Tao rea.s.sured his daughter.

Dad, I can protect myself.

How could Mr. Tao trust a little girl? He put his arm around Tan Rous shoulder and said, Yes, alright. Xiao Rou is a very strong young woman. However, he also warned Tan Rou, But, you have to be careful. Although the school is relatively safe, its not absolutely safe. All of these incidents happened in school, so its hard to guard against them.
