Ms. Tan Is The Real Boss-Chapter 1286 - : 1285 loses face for men
Chapter 1286: 1285 loses face for men
Jiang Min and Tan Rou’s conversation was not pleasant. Jiang Min felt that Tan Rou didn’t understand her difficulties, while Tan Rou insisted on her own ideas, not wanting Jiang Min to marry someone with bad character in a daze.
On the other side, Li Li and the others also finished praying to the Bodhisattva. As soon as she stepped out, she encountered Tan Rou and Jiang Min.
“Tan Rou, Liang Lu and the others are lining up for you, you should hurry and pray.” Li Li said happily, “I feel that praying to the Bodhisattva really works. Just now, my advisor sent me a message saying that my last paper won an award.”
Tan Rou was happy for her, “You must eat a bit more when we go eat, as a celebration.”
Li Li was in a good mood, but when she turned her gaze to Jiang Min, she found that Jiang Min’s expression was unnatural.
“Senior Jiang Min, do you feel unwell?” Li Li asked with concern. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
Jiang Min shook her head slightly, “It’s nothing.”
Li Li did not ask further and looked towards Tan Rou, “Tan Rou, are you still going to pray to the Bodhisattva?”
Seeing that the time was about right to go eat, Tan Rou said, “The main reason for this visit was to have you guys pray to dispel the bad luck, so whether we pray or not doesn’t matter. We’re running short on time, let’s meet up with Zhuang Liu and the others first, and then go eat.”
Li Li was feeling a bit hungry too, “Oh, okay, then I’ll go call Liang Lu and the rest.”
When they came out, Tan Rou noticed that Shang Jin was not inside, so she asked, “Shang Jin hasn’t come back?”
Li Li wondered, “No, didn’t she go out with you?”
Jiang Min said worriedly, “Ah Jin just split up from us, I thought she was going to come back and find you all.”
Li Li said, “Maybe Shang Jin went to the bathroom. I’ll message her to ask.” She messaged Shang Jin, who did not reply, “She probably hasn’t seen her phone, I’ll call her.”
Her call was cut off almost immediately, but shortly after, Shang Jin’s message came in. Shang Jin said she was shopping and told Li Li not to worry; she would join them in a bit.
Tan Rou found Shang Jin’s behavior a bit strange. Just a moment ago, she looked angry; how did she suddenly go shopping? Based on Shang Jin’s mood at the time, she should have been somewhere fuming, not shopping.
A while later, Zhuang Liu and the others came over. Their atmosphere was not as pleasant as that of the women. It seemed a bit somber.
Upon seeing Tan Rou, Zhuang Liu quickened his pace, “Tan Rou, have you finished what you needed to do?”
Tan Rou nodded and said, “Yes. What about you guys?”
Zhuang Liu’s expression was odd, but he replied, “Yeah, we’ve finished what we had to do. Now it’s just time to eat.”
Tan Rou sensed something was amiss and leaned closer to Zhuang Liu, whispering, “What happened on your side?”
Zhuang Liu whispered back into her ear, “There’s been trouble between Feng Jiao and Xu Yan, they almost came to blows.”
“What?” Tan Rou was very surprised, “The class rep and Feng Jiao almost fought? How is that possible?”
In Tan Rou’s mind, Xu Yan had always been a rather quiet person, methodical in his approach, and seldom involved in conflicts. Even when faced with provocation, Xu Yan typically just smiled it off. That’s why Tan Rou was so surprised to hear there had been a conflict between Feng Jiao and Xu Yan.
“You can’t blame Xu Yan for this; Feng Jiao is just too annoying.” Zhuang Liu frowned and said, “At the beginning, a few of us were discussing where to hang out. Feng Jiao wanted to go to one place, Xu Yan to another. He said he needed to buy something for Shang Jin, or else she would create a fuss when she got back, so he wanted to split up from us.”
Tan Rou said, “That sounds like a reasonable excuse. It’s fine as long as you all meet up in the end. There’s no need to stick together the whole time. I guess you wouldn’t want to sightsee with them either, right?”
Zhuang Liu responded, “Then why did you let me go with them?”
Tan Rou chuckled lightly, “If we hadn’t separated, how could I have spoken with Senior Jiang Min?”
Zhuang Liu knew this was true; his previous remark was just an expression of dissatisfaction and didn’t truly blame Tan Rou.
“You haven’t finished telling me, why did they almost fight?” Tan Rou inquired.
Zhuang Liu answered, “Because Feng Jiao felt that Xu Yan buying things for Shang Jin was too damaging to his male pride.”
