As Zhuang Che spoke, he was still staring at Tan Ron. He felt that Tan Ron was too cute. When Tan Rou saw that he was looking at her, she actually hid behind her brother in embarrassment. There were not many innocent and cute girls these days.
Tao Yue noticed Zhuang Che’s gaze and shifted her gaze to Tan Rou. She recognized the gown Tan Rou was wearing at a glance.
There were only two new limited edition gowns from the VP family this month, and the price was unusually high.
Tao Yue had her eyes on this dress for a long time, but the price was too high. She didn’t dare to ask her mother for it. Tao Yue had always been an obedient, sensible, and thrifty child. If she bought this dress, people would definitely make a fuss about it.
But why could Tan Rou wear this gown? This was not in line with the Tao family’s usual spending habits.
“Eldest cousin’s gown is not cheap, right? I heard that one set costs eight million yuan. Uncle and Auntie are really generous to buy this dress for the lobby sister,” Tao Yue said jealously.
Tan Rou did not know the price of the gown. She knew it was not cheap, but she did not expect it to cost eight million.
“I bought this gown. If you like it too, let your brother buy it.” Tao Zhi said coldly.
“My brother doesn’t have that much money to buy me such a luxurious dress,” Tao Yue said sadly.
“That’s your brother’s business.” Tao Zhi pulled Tan Rou. “We still have things to do so we won’t chat with you guys.”
When they passed by Zhuang Liu, Tan Rou secretly touched Zhuang Liu’s shoulder with her finger as a greeting.
Zhuang Liu’s heart softened. He hadn’t seen her for many days, but Xiao Rou remembered him. He was happy that she did so.
Coincidentally, Xiao Mo had just finished his work and returned. Zhuang Liu gestured for him to push the wheelchair and follow them.
Zhuang Che’s gaze followed Tan Rou. His original target was Tao Yue. Although Tao Yue was the adopted daughter of the Tao family, they only had one daughter. When he married Tao Yue in the future, the Tao family would definitely treat him well.
However, his goal changed when he found out that the Tao family had a biological daughter, and that this biological daughter was the daughter of the Tao family’s head. As long as he could marry Tan Rou, he would definitely be the next head of the Zhuang family.
“Brother All Che!” Tao Yue saw that Zhuang Che was looking at Tan Rou and said angrily, “Why are you ignoring me when I’m talking to you?””
Zhuang Che returned to his senses and smiled, “Yueyue, your eldest cousin is quite good-looking.”
Tao Yue wasn’t blind. She knew Tan Rou was pretty. But what did Zhuang Che mean by that? Did he fall for Tan Rou?
“Brother All Che, don’t tell me you’ve fallen in love with my cousin? Do you want to marry her?” Tao Yue asked him directly.
Tao Yue could not let Zhuang Che marry Tan Rou. Zhuang Che was the candidate for the next head of the Zhuang family. Although the old man’s favorite grandson was Zhuang Liu, Zhuang Liu was a person with a disability who did not have long to live. There was no way the old man would give the position of the head of the family to Zhuang Liu.
Other than Zhuang Liu, Zhuang Che was the most suitable candidate to take over as the head of the Zhuang family. If Tao Yue could marry Zhuang Che, she would become the mistress of the Zhuang family after Zhuang Che became the head of the family. Then, she could eliminate her identity as an adopted daughter and become the mistress of a high and mighty family. She would no longer have to hide herself.
She had been in contact with Zhuang Che since a long time ago. Zhuang Che was also very good to her. He called her ‘Sister Yueyue’ every day. She thought that Zhuang Che liked her. Now, it seemed that Zhuang Che did not like anyone. He only liked her status.
“You’re getting way ahead of things.” Zhuang Che couldn’t let Tao Yue know what he was thinking about. “1 feel a big family like ours should make more friends. Your cousins have just returned and are not familiar with the capital yet. I can help them.”
“Then why did Brother Ah Che only say that Cousin is beautiful?” Tao Yue was not stupid. How could she not understand what Zhuang Che was implying?
“Yueyue, although your cousin is good-looking, she’s not as good as you in all aspects! You’re the number one socialite in Capital, right?” Zhuang Che coaxed Tao Yue patiently.
“Where did your cousin live since she was young? What kind of education did she receive? Can she be compared to you?”
