Tang Han was even more heartbroken.
Tang Mengze, who had planned to leave politely, went to sit with Jiujiu in the corner of Jiujiu's room. She was led by Jiujiu to eat cake and chat.
Tang Mengze, who had no expectations of coming to the collateral branch this time, had a smile on her face because she met an acquaintance.
Jiujiu and Tang Mengze chatted in full swing. The other members of the Tang family who wanted to get close to Tang Mengze were instantly dumbfounded, especially Tang He. Her heart was about to fall into pieces.
Tang He looked at Jiujiu with a worried face. She lowered her voice and asked Tang Han, "Dad, how does Jiujiu know Mr. Tang?"
Tang Han's expression was not very good. He gritted his teeth and said, "How would I know?"
If he had known why Jiujiu was so close to Tang Mengze, he would have been close to Tang Mengze long ago.
Tang He, "…"
Tang Xi was showing her charm beside Tang Mengze just now, but Tang Mengze ignored her. Now Jiujiu did not pay attention to Tang Mengze, but Tang Mengze took the initiative to chat with Jiujiu. Tang Xi's eyes were about to turn green with jealousy.
Tang Xi's hands were about to become fried dough twists. She bit her lip and said, "Jiujiu can't be from the Miao Tribe. She knows how to use voodoo, right?"
Otherwise, why would Tang Mengze be so good to her?
Tang Han's eyes swept over Tang Xi like a sharp sword. He said with a cold face, "Shut up. Is Mr. Tang someone you can criticize?"
Thinking of Tang Mengze's identity, Tang Xi reluctantly closed her mouth, but her eyes were still full of hatred when she looked at Jiujiu.
Because of Tang Mengze, the corner that had been deserted a moment ago quickly became very lively.
Because it was not appropriate to greet Tang Mengze directly, the others thought of ways to chat with Jiujiu, pretending that they were very familiar with Jiujiu and indirectly trying to get close to Tang Mengze.
Tang Mengze was very familiar with this scene. She lowered her eyes to hide the smile in her eyes and turned to ask Jiujiu, "Are you close?"
When Jiujiu had been put in a difficult position by Tang Han in front of the graves of the two elders of the Tang Family, none of the Tang Family members had stood up for her. As a result, Jiujiu had a very bad impression of the Tang Family members.
Hearing Tang Mengze's question, the corners of Jiujiu's mouth instantly curled up. She followed Tang Mengze's words and said, "This is also the first time I know that I have so many relatives."
Jiujiu's words were simple and straightforward. She was just short of saying that she was not familiar with these people.
As soon as Jiujiu's voice fell, the faces of the people who were smiling and chatting with Jiujiu suddenly became unnatural. Some of them looked at Jiujiu with a bit of blame in their eyes.
Jiujiu pretended not to see these people's gazes. She yawned and said to Tang Mengze, "What are you doing here?"
Tang Mengze didn't have much impression of the collateral branches. The only one he knew was Tang Jianguo because his grandfather once talked about him in his ear.
Seeing that Jiujiu didn't have a good relationship with these people, Tang Mengze didn't want to cooperate. She directly replied, "I'm looking for Cui Jing. Didn't he tell you?"
Jiujiu shook her head.
Seeing Jiujiu's confused face, Tang Mengze remembered that Jiujiu was a bodyguard, not a secretary. It was normal that Cui Jing didn't tell her.
Tang Mengze smiled and asked in a low voice, "When will school start?"
"One week."
"I should still be here at that time. I'll send you to school then." Tang Mengze looked at Jiujiu tenderly. Her cold face flashed with a touch of soft light. Her voice was affectionate and soft, with some refreshing warmth, "You should have what others have."
When Tang Mengze met her for the first time, she helped her bravely. When they met for the second time, she offered to help her to become a better person. Now, she was like an elder who wanted to send her to school.
Such warmth made Jiujiu laugh involuntarily.
Jiujiu's eyes shook slightly, and she said, "Thank you."
Tang Mengze's eyes curved slightly, and she whispered, "You're welcome. By the way, where do you live? I'll send you there."
Jiujiu tilted her head and looked at the group of people who were still around them. She asked vaguely, "You don't care about them?"
She saw that this group of people had been waiting for a long time. If Tang Mengze left directly, this group of people would die of anger.
Tang Mengze lowered her head to hide the coldness in her eyes and whispered, "No need."
What did this group of people waiting for her have to do with her?
Since Tang Mengze said so, Jiujiu didn't bother to ask. She said directly, "Then can we leave now?"
She originally came here on behalf of the Tang couple. Now that she found out that Tang Mengze was a member of the Tang family, it didn't matter if she left directly. Since she had eaten and drunk enough, there was no need for her to stay.
Being straightforward was indeed Jiujiu's style.
Tang Mengze nodded.
Jiujiu took out a pack of tissue from her pocket and tore it open. After giving one to Tang Mengze and one to her, she wiped her fingers clean and got up to walk to the door.
Tang Mengze followed her.
Seeing that Tang Shu was leaving, Tang Han was extremely happy. He was about to chat with Tang Mengze when he found that Tang Mengze was about to leave with her. Tang Han's face fell in an instant.
Tang Han wanted to stop her, but he didn't dare to. He could only watch Tang Mengze leave with Jiujiu.
Jiujiu got into Tang Mengze's car and told him her home. Tang Mengze took the initiative to ask, "Do you need me to send you to Cui Jing's company tomorrow?"
"No need." Jiujiu took a sip of her drink and explained, "I've only been a bodyguard for a month. I've already left."
Tang Mengze was speechless.
They were silent on the way back. When they reached the door, Jiujiu got out of the car directly, said goodbye to Tang Mengze with a smile, and skipped home.
Looking at Jiujiu's back, Tang Mengze's eyes darkened. After a moment, she couldn't help but laugh.
What a lovely girl.
After sending Jiujiu off, Tang Mengze went straight back to the hotel.
There was still a week before school started. Jiujiu made a lot of money from Cui Jing. Moreover, she didn't go out for the trip at all. She took all the money that was given to her, so she had a lot of money in her hands.
With money, Jiujiu went to buy a lot of advanced electronic equipment for herself. Then, she stayed at home and ate and drank every day. She felt very comfortable.
Since the school wasn't far from home and she didn't need to bring too many things, Jiujiu packed up some of the things she needed the day before the registration. She packed a suitcase and prepared to buy the rest of the things when she got to school.
After all, she was rich now.
Early the next morning, Jiujiu just woke up and was thinking about whether she should take a taxi or take a bus. Then, a shrill horn sounded at the door.
When she opened the door and saw the luxury car parked at the door, Jiujiu blinked.
Did the car park in the wrong place?
Just as Jiujiu turned around and was about to order takeout, a familiar voice sounded in her ears. "Jiujiu, I'll take you to school."
It was Tang Mengze's voice.
Jiujiu turned around and saw Tang Mengze standing beside the car. Seeing Jiujiu turn around, Tang Mengze's lips curved into a gentle smile. It was like the first ray of sunshine in the early winter morning, warm to the heart.
