Tan Rou said, “I participated in the physics competition this morning. He came to pick me up after the exam. Didn’t 1 tell you this morning? I have something to do today, so 1 won’t go back for dinner.”
Mother Tao looked regretful. “Oh my god! 1 actually forgot that my precious daughter was going to compete today. This is a big mistake!!!”
These days, she had been supervising the renovation and was in a hurry to move in. 1 ler mind couldn’t hold anything else. When her daughter said that she was going out in the morning, she didn’t pay much attention because her daughter often went out on weekends. She didn’t expect that today was her daughter’s physics competition. She actually forgot all about it. What an incompetent mother!
Tan Rou was amused by her mother’s reaction. She quickly said, “It’s okay, Mom. It’s just a small competition.”
Mrs. Tao was still unhappy. “That’s a very famous competition. How could 1 forget? Next time, when you participate in the national competition, 1’11 pull up a banner and wait for you outside. Just like how people pull up banners for the college entrance examination. 1’11 bring your father and brothers along with me.”
Tan Ron’s mouth twitched. She felt extremely terrified when she thought of that scene. “Mom, isn’t that too exaggerated?”
Mrs. Tao thought for a moment. It was indeed a little exaggerated, so she settled for the next best thing. “Then I’ll get you a smaller banner.”
“Auntie, let me send you back.”
“There’s no need for it.” Mrs. Tao waved her hand. “Rourou’s father is already waiting for me at the door. We can go back together. You should hurry home. It’s already so late.”
Zhuang Liu really wanted to send Tan Rou back, but he couldn’t let Tan Rou abandon her parents for him to send her back, so he could only say goodbye to Tan Rou.
Mr. Tao came to pick up Mrs. Tao and saw his daughter. “Why is my daughter here?”
Mrs. Tao found an opportunity. “Daughter, have you forgotten about the physics competition today? How are you a father?”
Mr. Tao panicked. “What? Today is the day that our daughter participated in the physics competition?!” He was also very annoyed. “How could 1 forget?”
Tan Rou smiled. “There’s still the next time. You guys can go and cheer for me at the next national competition.”
Mr. Tao kept this in his heart. He promised, “Don’t worry, daughter. Daddy will remember this.”
The family of three walked towards the car. Mr. Tao saw that Tan Rou was carrying something. He asked, “What are you carrying? Is it heavy? I can help you with it.”
Tan Rou didn’t want to bring out the surprise now. “1 can’t tell you what it is yet, Dad. This is my secret. I’ll tell you when the time comes.”
Mr. Tao smiled and stopped helping her. “Okay, okay, okay. So, now you’re all grown up and is keeping secrets from me?”
When Tan Rou got into the car, Zhuang Liu’s car also drove over.
Zhuang Liu rolled down the car window and greeted Mr. and Mrs. Tao first. Then it was Tan Rou. “See you later, Rourou.”
Father Tao looked at Zhuang Liu and asked Tan Rou, “Were you with him today?”
Tan Rou couldn’t tell Father Tao that she was here to give Zhuang Liu acupuncture, so she used the physics competition as an excuse. “After the competition today, Third Brother came to pick me up. Coincidentally, during the exam, 1 also found a few interesting physics questions, so I came over to discuss with Third Brother to see if there were any new ideas that could be used as reference.”
Mr. Tao nodded slightly. “Xiao Zhuang is a very capable child. You have to learn from him.” Ever since he met Zhuang Liu, he felt that his daughter’s results had something to do with Zhuang Liu. After all, his daughter used to place second last. Now that she suddenly became the first place, Zhuang Liu must have helped her a lot.
“Okay, Dad.” Tan Rou didn’t explain too much, lest it became more troublesome.
Mr. Tao was driving while Mrs. Tao sat behind and talked to her daughter. She whispered to her daughter, “Rourou, tell me. Are those bags your dad’s birthday present?”
Tan Rou glanced ahead and realized that her father didn’t hear her. She then whispered into Mrs. Tao’s ear, “Mom, you’re too smart!”
Mrs. Tao was very proud. “Don’t look down on me. It’s been twenty years since I graduated. 1 was also a top student back then.”
“What are you guys talking about?” Mr. Tao asked.”
Tan Rou said, “We’re talking about the top students in our family..”
