Chapter 779: 779 Tao Zhi Is Not Coming
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Tian Tian was stunned. She didn’t want Tao Zhi to be responsible for this at all. Moreover, she was the one who asked Tao Zhi to stay with her last night. Tao Zhi sat by the bed and accompanied her all night. When she woke up in the morning, not only did she not thank him, but she also kept a distance from him. Tian Tian thought that Tao Zhi would hate her.
When Tan Rou arrived, it was already very late. A class only lasted 45 minutes. After class, they went home.
Tian Tian was very nervous. What was she going to say to Tao Zhi later? Was she thanking him for sleeping with her last night? But why did this sentence sound so strange?
“Tiantian, why are you distracted?” Li Li waved her hand in front of Tian Tian’s eyes. “Rourou asked you what fruit you wanted for lunch. Did you hear that?”
Tian Tian came back to her senses. “Ah? 1 don’t mind having any.”
Li Li felt that something was wrong with Tian Tian. “Tiantian, are you still feeling uncomfortable? Why don’t you come to class in the afternoon and rest at home for half a day?”
Tian Tian didn’t want to rest at home. If she did, she might run into Tao Zhi. Tao Zhi had been staying here for the past few days. Even if it was at night, he would stay over and even have breakfast with them in the morning.
However, he didn’t have breakfast with them this morning. When Tian Tian finished washing up and went downstairs, Tao Zhi had already gone to work.
“My condition is much better. I’ll be fine after taking a nap at noon.” Tian Tian said.
Tan Rou was sending a message to Tao Zhi, asking him what had happened in the morning and why Tian Tian was so listless.
Tao Zhi said that nothing had happened and instructed Tan Rou to take good care of Tian Tian and prescribe some medicine for her to sober up.
Tan Rou frowned. She felt that something terrible must have happened between Tian Tian and her brother. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have such an attitude.
However, Tao Zhi was not at home.
“Hmm? Isn’t Big Brother Tao coming over for lunch today?” Li Li looked at the bowl and chopsticks on the table and felt a little strange.
“Hasn’t he been eating here for the past few days?”
“Eldest Young Master said that there’s an important project in the company,” Aunt Zhou replied. “He’ll be staying in the company for the next few days. He won’t be back for dinner.”
“When will Brother Tao Zhi come back?” Tian Tian asked subconsciously.
Aunt Zhou shook her head. “Miss Tian Tian, I can’t interfere with Eldest Young Master’s matters. If you want to know, you can send him a message directly.”
Tian Tian sat down in her seat dejectedly. “Oh, It’s nothing. I was just asking casually. You don’t have to mind me.”
This afternoon, Aunt Zhou had made many of their favorite dishes. One of them was fried prawns, which was Tian Tian’s favorite, but she did not eat any more after eating one.
Tan Rou picked up another one for her. “Tian Tian, this prawn is quite delicious. Why aren’t you eating anymore?”
Tian Tian didn’t have an appetite. She remembered that Tao Zhi also liked this fried prawn dish very much. “Maybe I drank too much last night and didn’t feel well. I don’t want to eat such greasy food now.”
Tan Rou picked up the prawns and said, “I’ll ask Aunt Zhou to be more careful when she cooks next time.”
“No no…. It’s fine.” Tian Tian didn’t want to trouble Aunt Zhou. “Aunt Zhou’s cooking is very delicious. I like it very much. She doesn’t need to change anything.”
“Maybe it’s not the problem with the vegetables, but the problem with the people.” Li Li sighed.
“Is it because the young master didn’t come back for dinner?” Aunt Zhou asked.
Tian Tian lowered her head and didn’t speak.
Aunt Zhou noticed the unusual atmosphere between them, so she said, “Eldest Young Master left in a hurry this morning. He didn’t even have time to change his clothes. Moreover, he didn’t bring any change of clothes. If he stays in the company for a few days, he might stink.”
Tian Tian was very worried. “Can you bring over some clothes for him to change?”
Tan Rou said, “Of course, but Aunt Zhou is already so old. It’s not suitable for her to run around outside. Although our class in the afternoon is at 4:00,1 have to do have a meeting before that. I wouldn’t be free to do so.”
“I have to attend a club activity in the afternoon. 1 have to go now. I don’t have time either.” Li Li said immediately.
“This…” Tian Tian was a little troubled. Was she going to face Tao Zhi?
At this moment, Aunt Zhou said, “Oh my, Eldest Young Master always forgets to eat when he was busy with work.. 1 wonder if he has eaten today?”
