433: Tang Jia San Shao no longer dotes on his sister?

Rumble—

By the time the group returned to the Tang Family's house, it was already late, with a sparse moon and stars.

"Master, Madam, Young Master! You're back!"

At the villa entrance, Wang Ma quickly greeted them, looking like she wanted to say something but hesitated.

"What's wrong, Wang Ma? Just say it," Tang Chuan asked, surprised.

"It's... it's about the two young ladies. After you all left, they had a disagreement..."

Wang Ma recounted the entire argument between the True and Fake Heiress in detail.

"Miss Rou is still in her room, refusing to come out for dinner. She hasn't even eaten lunch yet..."

Hearing this,

Xu Shuyun frowned and quickly asked with concern, "What about Xiao Ling? Has she not eaten dinner either?"

"Miss Ling, on the other hand, had a very good appetite. She ate two big bowls of rice, but Miss Rou..."

"That's good," Xu Shuyun sighed in relief, interrupting Wang Ma mid-sentence. "As for Xiao Rou, she has hands and feet. She'll come down to eat when she's hungry. Don't worry about her."

Beside her, Tang Guoan nodded in agreement, "Exactly, who starves to death these days?"

"Wang Ma, don't mind her. We spoiled that girl too much in the past, causing her to go on a hunger strike whenever she threw a tantrum. This bad habit needs to be cured properly."

"Alright! We haven't eaten dinner yet either! Wang Ma, tell the kitchen to prepare something to eat..."

"..."

After speaking, Tang Guoan and the others walked into the house, none of them concerned about whether Tang Rou was still hungry.

Ah... what (Ò ω Ó ױ)??!!

Watching the departing backs of the master's family, Wang Ma was stunned, dumbfounded (º Word º).

What's going on?!

Didn't the Master and Madam dote on Miss Rou the most?

Especially Young Master Tang Chuan, he was practically a doting older brother. In the past, as soon as he heard she was on a "hunger strike," he would immediately rush upstairs to coax her into eating.

How is it that this time, Miss Rou hasn't eaten all day, yet the Master and Madam are still unconcerned, and instead, they're worried about whether Miss Ling has eaten enough?!

At this moment, Wang Ma deeply felt the disparity. Compared to when Tang Ling first returned home... the Tang Family's attitude towards the True and Fake Heiress seemed completely reversed?

However, as a maid, she merely sighed to herself a few times before immediately going to the kitchen to prepare dinner...

Upstairs in the villa.

In a warm, elegantly decorated girl's boudoir filled with pink.

Tang Rou was comfortably lying on the bed, watching a drama and eating potato chips, biscuits, and other snacks.

She wasn't a fool; her delicate body was important, so how could she truly go on a "hunger strike"?

It was just a show she put on for the Tang Family... In the past, this tactic had always worked. Although there seemed to be some deviation this time, it wasn't a big problem. The "bond" with her family formed over so many years could never be severed by an outsider who had only appeared for a few days.

Especially this time, she had broken a record, having skipped two full meals!!!

Dad Tang and Mom Tang would surely be heartbroken when they found out and would bring food upstairs to coax her.

Even if they tried to save face and pretended to be reserved, at least Tang Familys Third Young Master would definitely be worried sick and rush up to comfort her.

On this point, Tang Rou was 95% absolutely certain—!!!!!!

And she had already planned her strategy. When the time came, she would continue her hunger strike, using the excuse that she was too worried at home to eat, and was praying for the child in Third Young Master's wife's belly... Tang Rou knew exactly how much Third Young Master loved that scheming girl.

Plus, the other party was carrying the Tang Family's bloodline. As long as she showed enough piety, the Tang Family would definitely be incredibly moved by her...

As for Tang Ling? Hehe... Both are Tang Family's Qianjin... One, when her family was in a state of anxiety, was worried, couldn't eat or sleep, and sincerely prayed to heaven for her family's well-being.

The other, however, was extremely indifferent, uncaring about her family, still doing as she pleased, only caring about her own eating, drinking, and enjoyment.

Comparing the two, any normal person with feelings would know which side to lean towards... Thinking this, Tang Rou's lips curled into a sneering arc.

"Hmph, fighting with me? You're still too young! So what if you're the true Qianjin? You just got lucky! How can you compare to me?"

"As the saying goes: 'Are kings, nobles, generals, and ministers born with special blood?!'"

"Even if I, Tang Rou, came from humble beginnings, I can still defy fate and soar to great heights."

"..."

Ding dong—

Just as Tang Rou was smugly congratulating herself on her clever tactics!

Her Apple iPhone's ringtone suddenly sounded. Tang Rou quickly tapped to open it and immediately broke into a smile.

A confidante among the maids had tipped her off, informing her that the Tang Family had returned... Very good~~~~

The next step was to wait for them to come upstairs and coax her~~~~

However, Dad Tang and Mom Tang dared to ignore her like that earlier?

A scholar can endure, but what cannot be endured!

In order to better manipulate them, this time she absolutely could not easily forgive them. The Tang Couple must humbly apologize to her...

Tang Rou's eyes narrowed, a decision already made in her heart.

So, she began to brew her emotions, ready to redden her eyes and shed tears at any moment.

One and a half minutes, two and a half minutes, three and a half minutes, four and a half minutes, five and a half minutes... She didn't know how much time had passed, but there was still no sound of the Tang Family humbly seeking reconciliation from outside the door.

What's going on?!

By now, they should have known about my "hunger strike," so why hasn't anyone come upstairs to coax me?!

Dad Tang and Mom Tang aside, why hasn't even Third Young Master come to plead with me???

I haven't eaten for two whole meals!!!

For such a monumental event, they should have immediately dropped everything they were doing and collectively come to coax her, flatter her, and beg her to come downstairs to eat... How could there be no movement at all???

Don't they worry that I'll starve?

Tang Rou's face was ashen, and she paced back and forth in the room, restless.

She suddenly realized... some things seemed to have completely escaped her control...

In the villa living room.

The three members of the Tang Family had a hearty, delicious dinner and were now leisurely sitting on the sofa, eating fruit.

At this moment, no one remembered... there was a hungry Fake Heiress in the house.

"Dad, Mom! I... I'm going upstairs to see if Xiao Ling is asleep?"

"If she's not asleep, I'll bring her a plate of fruit to eat..."

Tang Chuan hesitated for a moment, then picked up a large bowl of watermelon and walked upstairs.

Previously, due to Tang Rou's instigation, there was a rift between him and his biological sister.

Now that he knew Tang Rou's true colors, he naturally wanted to find an opportunity to apologize to Tang Ling and rekindle their relationship.

After all, they were the family with a blood connection...

"Good, good, Xiao Chuan, you've finally grown up and become sensible!"

"That's right! Our family are all chosen by destiny, so we should unite!"

"..."

Watching the back of his passionate son going upstairs, Tang Guoan's face showed relief, and he laughed heartily.

Beside him, Xu Shuyun also had a loving expression, smiling without showing her teeth.

As parents, they naturally hoped that all the children in the family could be united and loving, with brothers and sisters respecting each other.

After all, both the palm and the back of the hand are flesh!

Tap, tap, tap—

When Tang Chuan arrived on the second floor, he happened to pass Tang Rou's room. Looking at the familiar wooden door he had knocked on countless times, his eyes quickly turned cold.

Just thinking about how Tang Rou's usually gentle and sensible demeanor was all a deliberate disguise, Tang Chuan felt a chill.

Such cunning at such a young age, one must be wary~~

And such a venomous heart~~~~

It truly echoed the old saying: [A dragon begets a dragon, a phoenix begets a phoenix, and a rat's son can dig holes.]

What kind of biological parents, naturally, will give birth to what kind of child?!

Sigh~~~

Actually, he should have realized it earlier... The child born to that vicious couple, Chu Xiong, inherited "evil" in their genes. How could they be the kind and good person Tang Rou initially portrayed herself to be???

...Here he comes! Here he comes!

He's bringing fruit to coax me!!!

Sure enough, I knew Third Young Master loved me so much, he wouldn't let me starve.

Inside the room, Tang Rou, hearing footsteps, shivered, and the smug smile on her lips couldn't be suppressed.

She had just received news that Tang Chuan had gone upstairs, and he was probably standing outside her door right now... He would soon knock and enter, comforting her with a heartbroken expression.

(ﾉ"◑ ◑)ﾉ"(｡•́ ︿ •̀ ｡).

Thinking of this, Tang Rou immediately adjusted her breathing, brewed her emotions, reddened her eyes slightly, ready to shed tears at any moment... Just when she thought everything was ready, all that was needed was the east wind!

The next second, a knock on the door arrived as expected.

Knock, knock, knock!

Listening to the unhurried knocking, Tang Rou suddenly froze, standing rooted to the spot, unable to recover for a long time.

Because the knocking sound came from next door, not from her own door.

What??????

Next door? Isn't that that woman Tang Ling's room???

Why? Why did Third Young Master knock... not on her door?!

Could it be that he brought fruit upstairs, not for her, but for that bumpkin Tang Ling???

Click!

Just as Tang Rou was questioning everything, she heard the door next door open, and then close again shortly after.

Quiet~~~

Clearly, Tang Chuan had entered that country bumpkin's room.

So, even Third Young Master, who doted on her the most, has betrayed her?!

Is he no longer the kind brother who cared for me and doted on me so much... Thinking this, Tang Rou became anxious and angry, shedding tears of grievance.

Damn it, it's all that woman's fault! Why did she come back? Why did she snatch everything from me?!

If she didn't exist, I would still be the Tang Family's little princess!!!

Tang Rou gritted her teeth in anger, but still held a sliver of hope.

Calm down, maybe I misunderstood Third Young Master... Perhaps Third Young Master went to find Tang Ling... just to vent my anger first, so he can then take credit and please me...

Yes, it must be like that!!!

Third Young Master usually dotes on me so much, he couldn't have suddenly distanced himself from me after just one afternoon... Hmm, he must have known... that the person who made me angry was that little bitch Tang Ling, and now he's going to confront her?!

Because in Third Young Master's eyes, she is kind-hearted and would surely stop him from hitting or scolding Tang Ling.

In order to ensure Tang Ling received her due punishment, Third Young Master quietly bypassed her and went to find trouble with Tang Ling...

The more Tang Rou thought about it, the more sense it made!

Her previously downturned lips, pressed down by grievance, once again curved into a smug arc.

Sure enough, everything is under control!!!

Tsk tsk tsk... I hope Third Young Master can give Tang Ling a little shock... Let that country bumpkin see just how indestructible the bond I've formed with the Tang Family over the years truly is!!!!!
