Chapter 5: 5

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Inside the room, Tan Rou was listening to the faint voices outside and carefully plotting her next steps.

However, no matter what she did, she would still have to deal with whatever came her way. After all, Tan Jing’s disgusting tricks were endless. It is better for her to be on guard at all times.

Next, it was time to go downstairs and have a good chat with others. The ball held by the Tan family was very formal. Initially, it was probably because Tan Jing wanted to blow up the scandal of her private meeting. Naturally, the more people there were, the higher the status they were, the better. With one move, Tan Jing could ruin her name in the entire circle.

Then… That woman, the woman whom she truly admired in her previous life, the woman whose affection she longed for, the woman who she used to call mother. Naturally, she would also be at the ball to accompany her beloved daughter.

In her previous life, she foolishly lied to herself. Perhaps her adoptive mother would reserve the last bit of affection for her, but the truth hit her hard in the face. She and Tan Jing were the true mother and daughter duo, even their vicious hearts ran from the same lineage.

What else does she have to look forward to?

That kind of person deserves to rot in the mud with her own daughter. Tan Rou no longer bothered to get into her good books because she finally understood who her family was and who needs her protection.

With that thought, Tan Rou let out a relieved smile. She went downstairs, ready to see what kind of tricks Tan Jing had planned for her. She was not going to let it slide this time.

Downstairs, the ball was still going smoothly. The hall was filled with conversation, people wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to network with powerful people. These are instances where the freshest gossip within the circle was inevitably shared.

Some of the gossipers did not care that they were in the Tan family. They started to discuss in a low voice, “Have you heard? The adopted daughter of the Tan family came back today too.”

“I saw her just now. Aiyo, if it were me, I wouldn’t have the cheek to come back. Their biological daughter has already been found yet she still clings to the Tan family. Isn’t she being shameless?”

“That’s right! Blood ties are such powerful bonds. It’s not something that can be replaced by an adopted daughter. I heard that she’s quite a worrisome problem to the family. The Tan family has a business empire.What if they leave it to her?”

“Worrisome problem? I haven’t heard about that. Tell me about it…”

Tan Rou, who happened to be coming down the stairs, shook her head helplessly. She didn’t have the mood to justify herself against other people’s claims about her. She just lamented about how gossips in the gathering of celebrities and wealthy families were no different from gossip amongst countryside bumpkins.

Tan Rou passed by without a shred of emotion on her face. She even gave them a polite nod. The people who were gossiping about her shut their mouths awkwardly and quickly changed the topic.

On the other side, Wei Ling followed Tan Rou downstairs and came to Tan Jing’s side. She shook her head, indicating that she didn’t notice anything unusual.

Tan Jing frowned. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that something was amiss. Something must have gone wrong and it happened so suddenly. Initially, she only thought of Tan Rou as an idiot without a brain but everything that happened tonight made her suspicious, could it be that she had underestimated her enemy? But she still did not want to believe it. It must be just Tan Rou’s luck. She would just have to find another opportunity to deal with her next time.

Just as she was thinking about it, Wei Ling cried out in a small voice, “Jing Jing! Look! Zhou Zheng is there!”

Tan Jing was stunned. The uneasiness in her heart grew by the moment.

Sure enough, Zhou Zheng was walking over from not far away. His face was wounded, which made his face look even more ferocious and repulsive.

Tan Rou, who was observing from the side, was also a little surprised. She didn’t hit his face just now. What happened? She couldn’t help but tense up again. Could it be that she had been careless and there was still a follow-up to their conspiracy?

Zhou Zheng was dressed like a hooligan and his face was covered with injuries. Wherever he passed by, people would avoid him. He seemed so out of place for this occasion. He walked straight toward Tan Jing.

“Pa!”

“Ah! Jing Jing!”

Wei Ling cried out in fear. Tan Jing covered her face. She never expected Zhou Zheng to slap her at such an event!

She screamed, “Are you crazy! How did you get in here? Someone get him out of here!”

At that moment, she was infuriated and nervous. Zhou Zheng’s reaction was abnormal. She has to get him out of here before he starts spouting any nonsense!

Miraculously, no one appeared. The people in the hall looked at each other and whispered about what had just happened. They did not dare to go forward. Only a few people came to check on her for the Tan family’s sake.

Tan Jing did not know if she was angry out of embarrassment or if she was fired up from being beaten so badly. Her face was red and she shouted in anger.

Zhou Zheng did not care about her, he continued slapping her on the face. “B*tch! It was you who tricked me into drugging Tan Rou! You even told me to sneak into her room and sleep with her. Then when I failed, you turned around and betrayed me. You even got someone to beat me up. You played me and so today I’m going to beat you up!”

Tan Jing screamed in pain after being beaten up. However, she was more afraid of what he was saying. “You’re spouting nonsense! Why are you slandering me? !”

There were so many people present and there was no way she could explain herself out of that!

Tan Rou, who was not far away, was also a little surprised. She did not expect this to happen. This was actually such an unexpected surprise. This was really a dog-eat-dog situation.

As Zhou Zheng finished speaking, the entire hall blew up. Everyone was stunned. They never expected there to be so much going on in the background. Some gossipy people even moved closer. After all, this could be considered a scandal for the Tan family.

Even though the people around Tan Jing were anxious to help, they couldn’t hold Zhou Zheng back.

Tan Rou sipped on a mouthful of champagne with glee. This was a really good show.
