266 266 Being Calculative
The lights in the resort were not very bright street lights, but the kind of yellow atmosphere lights. Tao Qi was sad and didn’t know what the right decision was. He only wanted to stand underneath the bright lights. He did not know the way to begin with. When he stopped, he had no idea where he was.
The cicadas chirped from time to time, adding some terror to this dark night. The young Tao Qi looked at the road that he was not familiar with at all, and tears flowed down his cheeks.
He regretted coming here and looking for Tan Jing. Right now, he only wanted to return to his parents ’embrace.
Tan Rou followed him. She didn’t call out to Tao Qi. This child was naughty and she should teach him a lesson.
!!
Tao Qi heard the sound coming from behind him. He thought that a monster was coming after him. He was so scared that he squatted on the ground and cried.
Tan Rou’s heart softened. She turned on the light on her phone and walked over slowly.

Tao Qi heard her voice and cried even louder.
“”Don’t cry here. This area is filled with villas. Everyone is sleeping. Don’t wake others up. Aren’t you supposed to be a little man?” Tan Rou squatted down to comfort him.
Tao Qi raised his head, revealing a face that was dripping with tears. “Big sister…”
Tan Rou smiled in relief and opened her arms. “You’re finally calling me big sister sincerely. Well, I’m happy. Come here, let me hug you.”
Tao Qi threw himself into her arms and sobbed softly.
“Let’s go back.” Tan Rou suggested.
“If you want to practice running, I’ll call you tomorrow morning. Don’t slack off.”
Tan Qi said instead, “I didn’t come out here to run.”
“I know.” Tan Rou passed the bag to him. “But this is a secret between us. If Dad, Mom or anyone asked us where we went last night, we’ll say that we came out to practice running.”
Tao Qi didn’t understand. “Why would you lie for me?”
“Mmmm….”
Tan Rou smiled. “Maybe it’s because you’re my younger brother.”
“I don’t want Tan Jing to be my sister anymore. She’s a bad person.” Tao Qi said angrily.
“She’s a bad person to begin with, and she’s never been on the same side as us.” Tan Rou patted his head and pulled him back. “I heard everything you said just now. Tan Jing has always hated us. She hates our family for letting her live a poor life. Look at the Tan family’s life and then look at our family’s life. How can it be the same?”
“But we gave her the best of everything!”
“Some people are born like that. Even if you treat her well, it won’t change her hatred for you.” Tan Rou felt that it was time for Tao Qi to recognize the difference between them.
“I’ll make it clearer for you then. Let’s talk about our standard of living. Look at your outfit. The shoes cost more than 200 yuan, but Tan Jing’s high heels cost 10 to 20 thousand yuan. Also, the dress she was wearing was probably a custom-made design with diamonds embedded in it. It isn’t cheap either. That set of clothes is enough for our family to spend for a few years. Do you think she can still be of one heart with us now?”

“The Tan family doesn’t like the best things that you can bring out, so in her heart, it’s better to be from a rich family. When she found out that she was the biological daughter of the Tan family, she rushed back to her own home without any hesitation. Let’s go. We don’t have to talk to her in the future.”
Tao Qi thought for a moment and threw the bag that Tan Rou had brought back into the non-recycled trash can. He looked at the trash can for a while before turning around to look for Tan Rou.
“Sister, let’s go back and look for Daddy and Mommy.” Tao Qi smiled again. “Next time, I’ll bring you your favorite snack!”
Tan Rou thought for a moment and said, “Well, as long as it’s something that you gave me, I will like them.”
“Do you like chocolate? I bought a lot.”
“I prefer black chocolate.”
“What about jellies?”
“Sure!”
The dim yellow street light shone on the siblings, casting a shadow on the ground.
