Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Tan Ron slept until 7:30 in the morning. Usually, she would have woken up early for a jog at this time, but because she slept too late last night, she slept a little longer this morning.
As if they knew that she was going to sleep in this morning, no one disturbed her rest.
After Tan Rou finished washing up, she randomly picked a few clothes from the huge wardrobe. After changing into them, she went straight downstairs. Because of the blackout last night, Tan Rou was worried that the elevator would malfunction, so she took the stairs down.
Aunt Zhou woke up early in the morning to clean the railing of the stairs. Her movements were very light, as if she was afraid of waking Tan Rou up.
“Morning, Aunt Zhou.” Tan Rou greeted Aunt Zhou.
Aunt Zhou stopped what she was doing and stood respectfully on the stairs below. “Good morning, Young Miss.”
“Aunt Zhou, have you had breakfast?” Tan Rou asked.
Aunt Zhou replied,” Not yet. Breakfast is ready. Miss, you can follow me to the main residence for breakfast. The meal time is around eight o’clock. It will be served when everyone is here.”
Tan Rou looked at the time and said, “Aunt Zhou, come with me.”
As they walked side by side, Aunt Zhou reported to her about the blackout incident last night. “I’ve already found out. Only Second Miss came back here alone last night. She told the servant that she was here to look for you.”
Tan Rou had already guessed it, but she didn’t plan to tell anyone. She had to give Tao Yue space to show how capable she truly was.
When Tan Rou arrived at the dining table, Tao Yue was already there. When she saw Tan Rou looking at her, she couldn’t help but feel scared. Did Tan Rou find out that she was the one who turned off the switch? Otherwise, why would he keep looking at her?
“The necklace that you’re wearing today is really beautiful.” Tan Rou stared at Tao Yue for a while, then smiled and said, “It seems to be the latest design, right?”
Tao Yue touched her necklace and asked happily, “Do you think this necklace looks good too?”
Tan Rou thought to herself, “It’s great indeed, very luxurious looking but at your age, it’s better for you to wear some simple and low-key jewelry.”
Grandma Tao said, “I think what Xiao Rou said makes sense. This kind of jewelry is suitable for noble ladies to wear. At Yue Yue’s age, it would be good to wear some jade for blessing.”
Tao Yue’s smile froze. “You’re right, Grandma. I’ll go back and change right away.”
That damned Tan Rou. The moment she walked into the room, she said that the jewelry she designed was not good but grandma had praised her for her talent previously. Now, she ended up speaking up for Tan Rou. What medicine did Tan Rou give the Tao family? There were so many people were actually speaking up for her!
“Mom, this is Yueyue’s first time designing jewelry. Don’t be too strict.” Second Aunt Tao said to Grandma Tao, “And this jewelry is indeed worn by people my age. Today, Yue Yue said that she wanted to wear the best jewelry to meet her sister, so she wore this.”
Tan Rou smiled in her heart. No wonder Tao Yue wanted to wear this dazzling diamond necklace. It turned out that she had designed it herself! She did have some talent in jewelry design, but only a little.
Tao Yue finished her breakfast absent-mindedly. She didn’t have the mood to talk to anyone else after the meal, so she found an excuse to leave.
“Grandpa, Grandma, I’m going to have a piano competition soon, so I’ll have to leave for practice first.” Tao Yue looked at Tan Rou provocatively as she spoke. She thought that Tan Rou would never play the piano. After all, the information she had found did not mention that Tan Rou had learned the piano.
“Hurry up and go. Don’t tire yourself out.” In fact, Grandma Tao didn’t hate Tao Yue. On the contrary, she liked her a lot. Firstly, there weren’t many girls in the Tao family. Secondly, Grandma Tao liked music. Sometimes, when she couldn’t sleep, Tao Yue would play the piano for her to help her fall asleep.
After Tao Yue left, Grandpa Tao arranged things for Tao Zhi. “In a while, you can bring your siblings to the company. If there’s anything you like, just take it. Just register it.”
This was the first time Tan Rou and the other two had come to the Capital, and it was also the first time they had officially come into contact with the Tao family’s business, so it was necessary for them to take a good look.
Tao Zhi had lived in the Capital since he was young, and he had been in contact with the Tao family’s business before he graduated from university, so he knew the Tao family very well.
Plus, since they finally had the chance to be in the capital, Tao Zhi decided to bring them shopping. Instead of going the office, he took them to the first-class luxurious stores..
