Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Tao Zheng hadn’t even opened his mouth to speak before Tao Qi spoke up, “If we are poor paupers, you’re the unfortunate one!”

Tao Zheng thought for a moment and it seemed to be the case. “Fourth Brother is right. You’re jinxed. Ever since you left our family, our family’s life has been getting better and better. Dad’s salary has increased, Mom’s health has improved, and she even found an easy job. Then, we moved to a new house, and my eldest brother, who had not had much contact with the family for many years, returned home. As soon as you left, our family became much better.

Tao Qi continued, “However, after you returned to the Tan family, problems rose one after another. Your parents are divorced, and now your family still owes so much money. No matter how I look at it, you’re just unlucky.”

“I… I…” Tan Jing could not speak for a long time.

Tan Song, who was about to return to the venue, heard their conversation. His expression changed. His face became very gloomy as if he wanted to kill someone.

He carefully recalled some things. Ever since Tan Jing came back, their family had been in trouble one after another. Moreover, a few of the problems were caused by Tan Jing. They only lost a little money when Tan Rou was with them. At that time, their family was wealthy and they were not worried about these.

But now, his company still owed a large sum of money. This amount was much more than he had spent when Tan Rou was still around. He had no place to find money to fill this hole.

But now, the Tao family from the Capital had taken a fancy to Tan Jing. Everything would be resolved if she could successfully get engaged to the Tao family in the capital. Thinking of this, Tan Song’s mood improved a lot.

“Why are you standing at the door? Little Zheng, are you and your brother welcoming guests at the door?” Grandpa Tao asked curiously.

Tao Zheng said unhappily, “The eldest daughter of the Tan family said that we don’t deserve to go in and told us to scram.”

Tao Qi added, “She even said that we were poor pauper.”

Grandpa Tao couldn’t help but laugh when he heard the word ‘pauper.’

“I’ve never heard anyone say that about us.”

Tan Jing rarely saw Grandpa Tao. They didn’t like Tan Jing very much, and Tan Jing didn’t like them either. However, they were elders after all. Tan Jing could call the Tao brothers poor, but she couldn’t call Grandpa Tao.

“Grandpa, that’s not what 1 meant…” Tan Jing said.

Before she could finish, Grandpa Tao stopped her. Grandpa Tao smiled and said, “You’re the eldest daughter of the Tan family, right? You don’t have to call me grandpa anymore. I’m not your grandpa and can’t afford to be called grandpa.”

This was precisely what Tan Jing wanted. Anyway, she did not want to call an old man not related by blood grandfather.

“It’s good that you don’t need it.” Tan Jing put on a superior attitude. “You’ve never liked me anyway, and I don’t want to call you Grandpa wither. We’ve not related by blood anyway. I don’t think I should either.”

Grandpa Tao still had that kind smile on his face. He narrowed his eyes and said, “You’re done pretending? Well, this is good too. I don’t need to suffer your disgusting attitude anymore.”

Tan Jing was furious as she shouted, “Stupid old man! Son’t be shameless. I’m only calling you granpa because you’re an old man! I’m warning you! Hou better be polite with your words. Don’t think 1 won’t dare to do anything to you just because you’re an old man!”

Tao Zheng usually didn’t like to get into conflicts with others, nor did he like to quarrel with others but today, he was angered by Tan Jing. “Tan Jing, if you continue to be rude to my grandfather, 1’11 make sure you pay for it!”

Although he was no martial arts master, he often carried a camera everywhere. A camera was not something that an ordinary person could carry. Therefore, Tao Zheng developed a lot of strength in filming. If Tan Jing attacked his grandfather, he would beat Tan Jing up without hesitation.

“What are you trying to do?” Tan Song stood in front of Tan Jing. No matter what, Tan Jing was his daughter. He had to protect her.

The two groups of people stared at each other, neither giving in to the other.

“Why are all of you standing by the door?” When Tao Zheng came out, he was shocked by the people at the door. Then, he said, “Old Master, everything is ready inside. You can go in now.”

Tan Song knew Tao Zhen. The person who had contacted Tan Song earlier was Tao Zheng. When he heard Tao Zhen say ‘Old Master’, he hurriedly looked around and saw a white-haired old man walking over with a group of people..
