226 226 You said you would treat me to a meal

Sure enough, Tao Zheng had brought a huge bag of things with him. Pepper spray, electric batons, pepper spray, tiger claw gauntlets, and a whole bunch of other things. They could be used for protection, but she couldn’t bring them into the school!

Tan Rou didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. She couldn’t reject her brother’s good intentions, so she could only accept these things. However, she didn’t intend to bring them to school, in case the teachers found out during a surprise inspection.

It was the weekend, so Tan Rou did her homework and developed new pills during the day. After dinner, she found that she hadn’t moved much the whole day, so she put on her headphones and went out for a walk, running a few laps.

“Mom, dad, I’m going out for a run.” Tan Rou didn’t forget to inform parents, lest they worry about her.

“It’s late, let your brother go with you.” Mrs. Tao was worried about Tan Rou going out alone.

Tan Rou understood her mother’s good intentions, but she explained to her mother about how she wanted to go out for a run alone, so that there was no need to talk.

After hearing her daughter’s words, Mrs. Tao could only remind her to be careful, not go to dark places or less crowded places, and to come back early.

Tan Rou answered all of them.

The evening wind blew on her face and her long hair fluttered. The last scent of Acacia Flower floated in the air. Soon, all the Acacia Flowers here would wither. Two or three pedestrians came and left in a hurry, and a car with two flashing lights was waiting by the side of the road. The person standing beside the car looked a little familiar.

“Third young master!” Tan Rou unconsciously smiled. “What are you doing here? Where’s Xiao Mo?”

When Zhuang Liu saw her, the corners of his lips curved up. “He’s waiting for me in the car.”

“Why is the assistant in the car? Does the boss want to get some fresh air outside?” Tan Rou chuckled.

Xiao Mo rolled down the window. “Miss Tan Rou, you’ve wronged me.”

Tan Rou was just joking with him. “Third young master, what are you doing here? Don’t you have any work to do?”

Zhuang Liu raised his eyebrows. “I’m waiting for someone to fulfill her promise.”

Tan Rou looked around. The people on the road were in a hurry home, and they didn’t seem to be the people he was waiting for. “Who is the third young master waiting for me?”

Zhuang Liu looked up at her. “I’m waiting for a particular person who wants to take me out for a meal.”

Tan Rou didn’t react in time. She thought Zhuang Liu was waiting for some business partner. She was still thinking about how arrogant the business partner was to make the third young master Zhuang wait in person and even had the audacity to be late.

Zhuang Liu noticed that she was still in a daze, so he reminded her, “Do you remember what you said to Xiao Mo at the school gate?”

Tan Rou tried hard to recall and finally understood who he was talking about.

However, it was almost ten o’clock, and even if the restaurant opened, there wouldn’t be any good dishes left. If she went to the Clearwater Pavilion, it would be too far away, and it would already be too late. She didn’t want to trouble Mr. Fang and the others. Moreover, she had eaten the dishes at the Clearwater Pavilion several times. It would be too boring if she invited Zhuang Liu there.

“I remember.” In fact, Tan Rou hadn’t decided where to treat Zhuang Liu to dinner yet. Ordinary restaurants didn’t suit his status, and he must have been tired of high-end restaurants. After thinking about it, she still couldn’t find a suitable place to eat. “Just give me a minute. I’ll tell you when I’ve chosen a good place.”

“Okay, I’ll be waiting,” Zhuang Liu answered calmly.

A gust of night wind blew, and the rich fragrance of Acacia Flower collided with the two. Tan Rou felt a little hot, but she didn’t know if it was from running or something else.

“It’s so hot,” Tan Rou saw a fruit tea shop not far away. “Third young master, since we can’t have dinner today, why don’t I treat you to a cup of fruit tea first?”

As long as it was her treat, Zhuang Liu would not be picky about it.

“Sure.”

Tan Jing walked behind Zhuang Liu’s wheelchair and pushed him to the fruit tea shop to order. The waiter asked her what sugar level Tan Rou wanted.

“Which one would taste best?” Tan Rou asked the waiter.

“Full sugar is the best. It completes the recipe.”

Tan Rou made her own medicine, so she naturally knew how these recipes came about so she chose to have full suger for both drinks.

“Let’s wait for a while. We’re no.99.” Tan Rou put the receipt on the table in front of the fruit tea shop.

Zhuang Liu liked the number very much. “99… That’s a good number that means eternity.”

“Third young master, are you superstitious about this?” Tan Rou asked.

“I’m not superstitious.” Zhuang Liu looked at her and said gently, “It wasn’t until I met you that I believed that fate was predestined. God has given me a second chance to meet you again.”

“We’ve met in the past?”Tan Rou was wondering where they had met before.

“Now that I’ve seen you, I feel like I knew you in my previous life.” Zhuang Liu said ambiguously.

After Tan Rou heard this, she only thought that it was a normal but ambiguous statement and didn’t take it seriously.
