“Miss Tan Rou, we were wrong in this matter. We’ve already realized our mistake. A big shot like you shouldn’t hold it against us.” Li Jing smiled and said, “How about this? I’ll treat you to a meal. Bring Liang Lu along. We’ll go to the best restaurant in the capital for a meal.”
Tan Rou looked disgusted. “Do you think 1 can’t afford this meal?”
Li Jing said awkwardly, “This is my sincere offer. Moreover, Miss Tan Rou, this matter isn’t entirely our fault. Most of the things that Zhang Xue posted on the Internet are true, so…”
Tan Rou was very angry. She did not want to listen to Li Jing anymore. “Whether it’s true or not, spreading other people’s private matters is an invasion of their privacy. Moreover, not only did the students from your school spread rumors and beat Liang Lu up, but do you think this matter can be settled with a meal?”
“Then how many more meals should I treat?” Li Jing asked.
“No need. Our Tao family doesn’t lack money for food.” Tan Rou sneered.
“All 1 want is to get justice for Liang Lu, so I won’t let Zhang Xue go easily. I don’t care about the cooperation between your school and the Tao family. If you want to talk about it, then you can talk to the general manager of Star Path Entertainment!”
With that, Tan Rou left with Li Li and the others. They still had to go back and see how Liang Lu was recovering. They had no time to listen to Li Jing’s nonsense.
“Miss Tan Rou, Miss Tan Rou!” Li Jing called Tan Rou from behind, but Tan Rou ignored her and quickly walked away.
Li Jing was so anxious that she slapped her thigh. “I’m done for. I’m really going to be expelled by the principal!”
“Miss, you don’t seem to be a teacher in our school, right?” Chen Yao smiled and greeted Li Jing. “1 saw you talking to Tan Rou and the others just now. Is there something you need from them?”
Chen Yao followed Lan Ning. In Chen Yao’s eyes, Lan Ning was a shameless girl. Ever since Tan Rou helped her, she shamelessly followed Tan Rou and the others every day. They were together in class and after class. Even after school, she would eat with Tan Rou and the others. She didn’t even go with Chen Yao.
After class today, Chen Yao saw Tan Rou call Lan Ning away again. She was very unhappy, so she wanted to follow them secretly. However, as soon as she came out, she saw this woman begging Tan Rou for something. It seemed that she wanted to treat Tan Rou to a meal. Therefore, after Tan Rou and the others left, she came over to talk to them.
Li Jing was feeling frustrated. When she saw Chen Yao, she wasn’t very enthusiastic. “Who are you?”
“I’m Tan Ron’s classmate,” said Chen Yao with a smile.
“What’s your relationship with Tan Rou?” Li Jing’s eyes lit up.
“I have a good relationship with her. If I hadn’t go to the toilet, Tan Rou would have waited for me,” Chen Yao said confidently.
Li Jing seemed to have grabbed onto a life-saving straw. “Help me persuade Tan Rou. As long as she’s willing to forgive us, i’ll do anything. How about this: as long as you can persuade Tan Rou, I’ll give you 5000. How about it?”
What Chen Yao lacked right now was money. When Lan Ni was around, her food and drinks were all paid for by Lan Ni. Now that she was gone, Chen Yao had to pay for everything herself. The prices in the Capital were so high that she couldn’t afford it.
Lan Ni’s family had gone bankrupt, and Chen Yao’s parents had lost their jobs as well. Originally, Chen Yao could get a few thousand yuan from Lan Ni’s parents every month, but now, not to mention a single cent, even her own parents didn’t give her any living expenses.
“It doesn’t matter if it’s money or not. I’m not that into money.” Chen Yao pretended to be calm. “It’s mainly because I want to help you. 1 don’t want my friend to have any misunderstandings with you.”
Li Jing was very grateful to Chen Yao. “Alright, i’ll transfer the money to your card immediately after I’ve settled this matter.”
Chen Yao smiled. “Then tell me, why are you looking for her?”
Li Jing told Chen Yao the whole story. After Chen Yao heard it, she suddenly looked troubled. “This is your fault. It’s difficult for me to persuade Tan Rou.”
Li Jing made up her mind. “As long as you complete the task, i’ll give you another five thousand.”
Chen Yao was overjoyed, but she didn’t show it on her face. “I’ll give it a try then..”
