Tan Rou went to the lounge at the back. It was not time for Tan Rou to make her appearance yet. She was the star of the day and had to make her appearance as the finale.
Tan Rou had no objections. She sat alone in the beautifully decorated lounge and scrolled through her phone from time to time to see if there was any new news.
Suddenly, a gentle knock on the door attracted Tan Rou’s attention. She looked up at the door.
“Who is it?” That person didn’t say anything for a long time, so Tan Rou asked.
“It’s me, Xiao Rou.” Zhuang Liu knocked again.
Hearing that it was Zhuang Liu, Tan Rou no longer had any scruples. She replied, “The door isn’t locked. Open the door and come in yourself.”
Zhuang Liu pushed the door open and entered. He didn’t bring Xiao Mo with him, nor was he in a wheelchair. It looked like he was hiding from others. As soon as he entered, he closed the door.
“Third Brother, why are you here?” Tan Rou asked.
Zhuang Liu said, “I was invited to attend the birthday party of the eldest daughter of the Tao family.”
He originally didn’t want to be here, but that day, he met the old master of the Tao family in the capital at the Elegant Jade Water Residence and then saw him walk into Tan Rou’s house. That’s when he knew the truth.
Tan Rou’s ears turned red. “You know about it too?”
Zhuang Liu replied, “1 was really surprised. However, after thinking about it, no one else could take on the identity of the eldest daughter of the Tao family in the capital other than you.”
“You’re only saying this to make me laugh.”
“I’m not making you happy. What I said just now was from the bottom of my heart.” Zhuang Liu’s legs still had not completely recover but he did not use his walking stick when he entered the door. He wanted to stand before Tan Rou like a normal person to celebrate her birthday..
Tan Rou brought him a chair. “Let’s sit down and talk.”
Zhuang Liu sat beside Tan Rou and reached out to stroke her hair. The scent of perfume on her hair entered his nose, making him feel comfortable.
“Xiao Rou, can 1 kiss you?” Zhuang Liu smiled and asked for her opinion.
Tan Rou was stunned. “What?”
Zhuang Liu repeated, “I want to kiss you.”
“Why?” Tan Rou lowered her head and asked. The tips of her ears were completely red.
“Just because I want to.” Zhuang Liu lifted the hair hanging by her ear and praised, “Rourou, you’re so beautiful today.”
Tan Rou pursed her lips. “Thank you for the compliment.”
Zhuang Liu could no longer control himself. “Xiao Rou, I just want to show you how much I care about it. Would that be alright?” He wanted to just kiss her but he had to get her permission first.
“Yes.” Tan Rou nodded lightly. In fact, she couldn’t tell what her feelings were like, but if someone said that they wanted to kiss her, she would only agree to let Zhuang Liu kiss her.
Zhuang Liu was so excited that he couldn’t sit still. He quickly stood in front of Tan Rou and leaned over to kiss her gently on the lips. It was as gentle as a feather brushing past his lips.
Tan Rou opened her eyes slightly. This was the first time she had kissed anyone. Actually, it wasn’t a real kiss. This light kiss was so light that it didn’t feel much.
When Tao Zheng entered the door, he saw Zhuang Liu’s lips leave his sister’s lips. His eyes widened.
“What are you doing?” Tao Zheng ran at the speed of a 100-meter sprint and quickly ran to Zhuang Liu’s side. He pushed Zhuang Liu away. Zhuang Liu lost his balance and fell to the ground.
Tan Rou’s heart ached as she went to help Zhuang Liu up. “Third Brother, are you okay?”
“Third Brother?” Tao Zheng’s right eyelid twitched. “You call him your Third Brother? Is he my younger brother?”
Zhuang Liu was actually older than Tao Zheng but for Tan Rou, he was willing to address Tao Zheng as his ‘Second Brother.”
“Hello, Second Brother!” Zhuang Liu called Tao Zheng without any burden.
Tao Zheng was so angry that his hair was about to stand on end. “How dare you call me Second Brother? I’ll teach you a lesson today!”
Tan Rou stopped Tao Zheng. “Second Brother, his legs have not been well. Don’t fight him. Besides, he had already asked for my position before kissing me.”
Tao Zheng had a pained look on his face, as if he had been cheated by a pig. “Rourou, let me tell you, there are no good men in this world. You must not be deceived by this good-looking man! The more good-looking a man was, the more dangerous he is!!!”
Zhuang Liu half-heartedly said to Tao Zheng, “Brother-in-law, you’re a good looking man yourself too.”
Tao Zheng was like an angry dinosaur. “I’m going to report you now.”
Tan Rou said to Zhuang Liu with a headache, “Third Brother, hurry up and go to the venue. I’ll talk to Second Brother.”
Zhuang Liu smiled and nodded. “Alright, Rourou. Brother-in-law, I’ll see you both later.”
Tao Zheng’s eyes were filled with anger..” I’m not your brother-in-law!”
