Chapter 1287: 1286 teaches a lesson

Tan Rou really couldn’t understand Feng Jiao’s thinking. Why did it matter to Feng Jiao if Xu Yan was buying something for his girlfriend? Couldn’t he just keep his mouth shut for a while?

“So what happened next?” Tan Rou asked, “Did the class president argue with him just because of that?”

“Not exactly,” Zhuang Liu replied, “At that moment, Xu Yan didn’t bother to respond to Feng Jiao, probably because he found him too annoying. Moreover, I could tell that Xu Yan didn’t want to walk with Feng Jiao, so that’s why he suggested buying something for his girlfriend. But when Feng Jiao saw that Xu Yan was ignoring him, he immediately got angry. He said Xu Yan was just a student, and insisted that he could get Xu Yan expelled from school within minutes.”

Tan Rou said with exasperation, “Is there something wrong with Feng Jiao?”

Zhuang Liu laughed and said, “Coincidentally, that’s what Xu Yan said too. You’ve known Xu Yan for a long time, so you should know what kind of expression he shows when facing people he dislikes. Feng Jiao saw Xu Yan’s expression and was very upset. He asked Xu Yan if he was looking down on him. Do you know what Xu Yan said?”

Imagining the scenario, Tan Rou then said, “The class president definitely had his hands in his pockets, nodded without any expression, and then said yes.”

If the timing hadn’t been inappropriate, Zhuang Liu would have applauded Tan Rou, “You got it right.”

Following this, Tan Rou could guess the rest. Xu Yan’s attitude irritated Feng Jiao, who then wanted to hit Xu Yan. Although Xu Yan wasn’t talkative, he was quite fierce in a fight, so the two of them definitely had a physical altercation.

“In the end, it was Director Lu who stopped them,” Zhuang Liu said, “Director Lu has been working out these past few years, and his temper has improved a lot. He speaks so eloquently that he managed to calm the two of them down in just a few words.”

Tan Rou chuckled and said, “Being a former actor, Director Lu definitely knows how to sweet-talk. Besides, his acting skills are not bad either. Just now, he and Liang Lu were performing from either side, almost killing me with laughter. Watch, Director Lu will definitely continue to deal with Feng Jiao. Feng Jiao is out of his mind and really needs someone to teach him a lesson. You shouldn’t get involved; it would lower your status.”

Zhuang Liu smiled gently, “Alright, I won’t intervene. But you should avoid any interaction with him in the future, to prevent his madness from biting you.”

“Why would I have any dealings with him?” Tan Rou suddenly thought of Jiang Min, “If he actually marries Senior Sister Jiang Min, I might indeed have to deal with him in the future.”

Zhuang Liu said, “My advice is to avoid this marriage. Even if it happens, it won’t benefit Jiang Min. Rather than the Jiang family forming a marital alliance with the Feng Family, they would be better off with the Zhuang family. It just so happens my second brother doesn’t have a girlfriend.”

Zhuang Liu’s second brother, Zhuang Xi, had been doing very well recently, and he was wholeheartedly focused on developing the Zhuang family business, without causing trouble for Zhuang Liu as rumored. Hence, Zhuang Liu still regarded him as his brother. Just last month, they had dinner together.

Zhuang Liu was just speaking off the cuff, but Tan Rou took his words to heart. If Jiang Min ended up with Zhuang Xi, that would indeed be a good match. However, since they hadn’t met each other yet, it was better not to discuss it further.

“Tan Rou, what are you two whispering about?” Liang Lu called out to Tan Rou and Zhuang Liu, “The restaurant here is both expensive and not very good, so we are planning to drive into the city to eat. What do you think?”

Tan Rou replied, “Didn’t you have it all arranged?”

Liang Lu pursed her lips and said, “I did have a dinner planned today, but someone insisted on treating us, and I couldn’t stop them.”

Tan Rou quickly realized who wanted to treat them and said with a smile, “It doesn’t matter, whoever wants to treat us is fine, as long as we get to eat.”

Feng Jiao wouldn’t miss this opportunity to curry favor with Tan Rou, and said diligently, “Miss Rou, wherever you say we should eat, that’s where we’ll go.”

As for why he would ask Tan Rou’s opinion, Feng Jiao thought this way: since he saw Tan Rou as the sister of Tao Zhi and as Zhuang Liu’s fiancée, beloved in both the Tao and Zhuang families, pleasing her would surely satisfy both Zhuang Liu and Tao Zhi.

Moreover, Tan Rou was very pretty, and Feng Jiao enjoyed talking to beautiful women. If it weren’t for her being Zhuang Liu’s fiancée, Feng Jiao would have liked to marry her himself. He really hoped that Zhuang Liu and Tan Rou’s engagement would be called off, giving him a chance.

While Feng Jiao thought this, his intense gaze irritated Zhuang Liu, who said sharply, “Young Master Feng, what are you looking at?”
