Zhuang Liu also said a lot of professional photography vocabulary and made a simple evaluation of some of the artifacts.
These comments were all things that Tao Zheng needed to hear. Some of his works had the same idea when he was filming. He didn’t expect Zhuang Liu’s aesthetic to be the same as his. He suddenly felt that he had found a person who knew his stuff, and even Zhuang Liu was a lot more pleasing to the eye.
“I didn’t expect Zhuang San to appreciate photography so much.” Tao Zheng was very happy. “If I have any good works in the future, I’ll definitely give you a few.”
Zhuang Liu gladly accepted. “Thank you, Second Brother-in-law.”
Tao Zheng was so happy that he couldn’t find his bearings. He didn’t care what Zhuang Liu addressed him as.
Tao Zhi looked at Tao Zheng with a pained expression. His stupid brother was actually coaxed by Zhuang Liu’s few good words. He was really too stupid.
He really couldn’t understand what kind of magic power Zhuang Liu had. Out of the six people in his family, five of them had been subdued by Zhuang Liu. He felt that Zhuang Liu was not a human. Zhuang Liu was definitely a siren who attracted the crew at sea, and his family was attracted to the crew.
In the evening, they gathered for a meal. Tao Zheng was treating them, and Li Li and Xu Yan were all there as well. The group of people ate until 10 pm.
Time flew by quickly. The Song family was half-dead.
Zhuang Liu did not want to waste any more time on them, so he simply handed everything over to Old Master Lu to deal with the aftermath. He then prepared to return to the Capital.
After Tan Rou finished her exams, the Tao family would return to the Capital.
Zhuang Liu came over to knock on the door of the Tao family. He did not have a walking stick today. Zhuang Che and the third son of the Zhuang family were busy with their performance during the new year and did not have time to keep an eye on him. Even if there were a few people stalking them, they were all taken care of by the bodyguards that Zhuang Liu had secretly arranged.
Mrs. Tao came over to open the door. When she saw that it was Zhuang Liu, she shouted happily, “Xiao Rou, Xiao Liu is here!”
Zhuang Liu looked at the house full of things and pretended to be surprised. “Auntie, are you packing your things to go somewhere?”
“We’re going back to the Capital for the New Year. Are you and your mother going back?”
Zhuang Liu’s expression was not very good.” Yes, we had such plans but it’s a little difficult.”
Mother Tao was concerned about what had happened.
Zhuang Liu said, “My mother and I would love to go back since after the new year, it will be my grandfather’s birthday. We have to go back. But once we go back, there will be no one to take care of my dad. Even if we hire a nurse, we won’t be at ease.”
Mrs. Tao knew that the Zhuang family’s situation was complicated. Zhuang Liu’s father was in a vegetative state. If he was left alone here, he might be assassinated.
“Bring your dad along.” Mrs. Tao suggested.
Zhuang Liu replied, “We’ve thought of this method too, but if my dad goes back with us, we’ll have to arrange a private jet. It is very troublesome for a to get one now and it’s too late anyways.”
“Why don’t you come with us?” Mrs. Tao said. “Our plane happens to be bigger. It’s more than enough to bring all of you along with us.”
“Would that be alright?” Zhuang Liu smiled. “Then I’ll go back and tell my mother. She was quite bothered about this.”
Before Mother Tao could react, Zhuang Liu had already ran out, as if he was afraid that Mother Tao would go back on her word.
Tao Zhi took his things down and happened to hear the second half of the conversation. He said unhappily, “Mom, you spoil him too much. Besides, he’s trying to trick you. Can’t you tell?”
Mother Tao glanced at him and smiled. “I’ve lived for almost 50 years. I’ve seen all kinds of things. No matter how smart Zhuang Liu is, he’s still a child in front of me. How can 1 not tell that he’s tricking me?”
Tao Zhi was very puzzled. “Since you could tell that he was trying to trick you, why did you agree to let him go with us? He’s a very scheming person. This time, he wants to come with us because he wants to talk more with Xiao Rou.”
“I already told you last time not to interfere with Xiao Ron’s choice. You only want to stop Zhuang Liu and Xiao Rou from meeting, but you didn’t think about whether Xiao Rou cared about Zhuang Liu or not. If Rourou also likes Zhuang Liu, aren’t you destroying Rourou’s happiness by doing this?”
Tao Zhi could tell that Tan Ron’s feelings for Zhuang Liu were different, but as the older brother, he did not want other men to get close to his sister.
“Your sister is already an adult. She will make her own judgment.” Mrs. Tao patted her son’s shoulder. “If you have nothing to do, go find a partner. You don’t have to stare at someone else’s partner every day.”
“Mom, I didn’t…” Before Tao Zhi could finish his sentence, his mother interrupted him.
“Hurry up and pack your things! Tell your younger siblings to hurry up as well,” Mrs. Tao urged..
