Ms. Tan Is The Real Boss

175 Third young master’s lack of self-confidence

Zhuang Liu nodded thoughtfully and asked, “Then … Do you want to find a way to cure old master Lu?”

Tan Rou naturally had nothing to hide from Zhuang Liu, so she answered without thinking, “That’s what I plan to do.”

Hearing Tan Rou’s affirmative answer, Zhuang Liu didn’t ask for the reason. He directly considered the difficulty of this matter.

“Although Old master Lu is kind, he was born in the military and is incredibly stubborn. He survived the rain of bullets and has been influenced by a large number of advanced foreign technologies back in his days. He is more inclined to Western medicine and would think that they could save lives.”

Zhuang Liu helped Tan Rou analyze the situation seriously. “That’s why we didn’t dare to ask you to check on him directly and openly earlier. We can only do it secretly. In my opinion, we ought to plan thoroughly and help change Old Master Lu’s opinion when it comes to traditional medicine.”

Tan Rou saw that Zhuang Liu was even more concerned about her matters than she was, so she smiled obediently. “I think so too. Fortunately, I left a good impression today. Thank you for chatting with Elder Lu for so long. I can come here more often in the future because of you.”

Zhuang Liu’s eyes lit up. “You meant we, right? Are you going to come here on your own? Just tell me in advance if you want to visit him again. I’ll come with you and it’ll be easier for us to help each other cover the truth.”

Zhuang Liu did not ask why Tan Rou was so eager to treat old master Lu. It was because he wanted to respect Tan Rou and support her unconditionally.

If Tan Rou said she wanted to treat him, then she should; even if there was no reason for it and was merely a decision made at the spur of a moment. Zhuang Liu had confidence in Tan Rou’s medical skills, which was also a good thing for Old Master Lu.

However, Zhuang Liu still had some worries in his heart. That was Old Master Lu. As his only biological grandson, Lu Qing would definitely come to the hospital to visit him often. If he met Xiao Rou one day, wouldn’t Zhuang Liu be sending Xiao Rou to his potential love rival?

Once Xiao Rou cured Old master Lu’s illness, what if Lu Qing became more excited and liked Xiao Rou even more?

The scene of Lu Qing offering himself as a gift of gratitude appeared in Zhuang Liu’s mind. He quickly forced himself to stop this fantasy, or else he would really want to stop Tan Rou from treating Old Master Lu.

Even if there was anyone who wanted to offer themselves for getting treated by Xiao Rou, it should be him! He was Xiao Rou’s first patient ever. If Lu Qing wanted to hop onto this train, he would first have to ask for permission from Zhuang Liu.

However, Zhuang Liu could not say these words to Tan Rou.

Although Zhuang Liu was willing to show his softest and gentlest side to Tan Rou, in the end, a man’s pride and face were more important than anything else. How could he admit in front of Xiao Rou that he was worried about a young boy?

Zhuang Liu wanted to show his strong and calm side to Tan Rou and let her know that he could be her support.

As a result, Zhuang Liu was extremely anxious. On the surface, he pretended to be kind and did not have any other thoughts on his mind, but his frowning thick eyebrows and tightly pursed thin lips revealed his uneasy heart.

Tan Rou naturally saw it, but she was still a little puzzled. “You’re coming with us in the future? I’m just worried that you might be busy with work. You’ve accompanied me here today and have been chatting with Old Master Lu. You must be tired, right? In fact, I can do it myself. Maybe I’ll run into Lu Qing, which would be even more convenient.”

It would have been fine if Tan Rou didn’t mention it. When she mentioned Lu Qing so naturally, Zhuang Liu’s heart clenched tightly. His sense of crisis instantly exploded. He wanted to pack Tan Rou up and take her away right now. It was best not to come to this hospital!

However, Zhuang Liu knew that he couldn’t do that. Xiao Rou and Lu Qing would spend a lot of time together in school. He couldn’t stop her.

Zhuang Liu was a little depressed. He even started to think about whether he should go back to school. He really wanted to spend more time with Tan Rou.

Tan Rou noticed how Zhuang Liu has been acting strange. He was so excited at one moment, and then suddenly lost his spirit. She was a little worried. “What’s wrong? Are you not feeling well?”

Xiao Mo sighed to himself. The third young master had so much love for Tan Rou but he couldn’t express himself. The third young master was afraid that Lu Qing would distract Miss Tan Rou, but he couldn’t say it.

Zhuang Liu was the third young master of the Zhuang family and a Big Boss of the business world, but he was not confident in love.

Xiao Mo glanced at Zhuang Liu with a smile and thought to himself, ‘well, he’s the best and most professional assistant in the world. If the master cannot bring himself to talk about such things, he should help!!’

Xiao Mo tried his best not to gloat. He looked at Tan Rou with a straight face and said, “Miss Tan, our third master is indeed feeling uncomfortable. He is feeling uncomfortable in his heart!”
