Tan Rou whispered into his ear, “Big Brother, wait for me at the school gate after school in the afternoon. We’ll go somewhere before coming back.”
Tao Zhi didn’t ask where she was going and just nodded.
Tao Qi looked at them suspiciously and asked, “What are you whispering about?”
Tan Rou raised her eyebrows and smiled evilly. “We were just discussing buying you more study materials. You can tell us which one you like.”
Although Tao Qi liked to study, he didn’t like people buying study materials for him. It was as if they were forcing him to study. He didn’t like this feeling.
“No, no, no!!!!” Tao Qi shook his head faster than a rattle-drum. “I don’t need you to buy it for me. If I need it, I’ll buy it myself.”
Tan Rou continued to lie to him. “That’s it then. I’m going out to buy some study materials in the afternoon. Tell Mom and Second Brother about this.” Tao Qi nervously asked, “Are you really buying it for me?”
“Of course not.” Tan Rou reached out and ruffled his short hair. “We won’t force you to do something you don’t like.”
Tao Qi pouted. “That’s more like it. Also, Third Sister, you don’t have to touch my head all the time. Touching my head won’t make me tall!”
Tan Rou did not mind and continued to rub his hair. “Everyone in our family is tall. You don’t have to worry about being short.”
When school ended in the afternoon, Tao Zhi was already waiting for Tan Rou at the school gate. In order not to be discovered, he even wore sunglasses and a mask, like a celebrity in disguise.
Tan Rou was stunned at the door for a long time before she recognized that the person who was wrapped up tightly and waving at her was her big brother.
“Big Brother, why are you dressed like this?” Tan Rou looked around. “Be careful not to be mistaken as a terrorist by the school security.”
Tao Zhi took off his mask, revealing a face that looked very similar to Tan Rou’s. “I’m afraid of causing unnecessary trouble.”
Tan Rou glanced at the security guard at the door and smiled. “The security guard has been watching you.”
Tao Zhi quickly took off his mask and sunglasses. “I’m sorry to have troubled you.”
Tan Rou waved at the security guard, indicating that she knew this person. The security guard was relieved when he saw the man’s face. They guessed that the older brother had come to pick up his younger sister, but they were too embarrassed to show their faces.
“Let’s take a taxi.” Tan Rou brought Tao Zhi to the opposite side of the road. “There are many people after school, so it’s not easy to get one. Let’s walk for a while before getting a taxi.”
Tan Rou was going to take Tao Zhi to Bai Jing’s clinic. She had already told Bai Jing to prepare the medicine. She also wanted to ask Bai Jing’s opinion about her brother’s hand, but she didn’t think she could get much from Bai Jing.
“So this is your big brother!” Bai Jing stared at Tao Zhi, who was not far away. “He looks exactly like you!”
Tan Rou said, “Yes, among us siblings, I look the most like my big brother!”
Bai Jing nodded slightly. “I roughly understand what you’re talking about, but I don’t know much about chemicals. I don’t think I can help you, but as long as I have the medicine you need, I will definitely get it for you.”
Tan Rou didn’t have much hope. Bai Jing specialized in Traditional Chinese Medicine, so he definitely didn’t know much about chemicals. She had brought Tao Zhi here because she had something else to do.
“Uncle White, I’ll introduce you to my big brother later. Tell him that you’re my master, that I learned my medical skills from you, and that I got my medical books from you.” Tan Rou instructed.
Bai Jing shook his head. “Xiao Rou, how can I be your master?”
“Please, Uncle Bai. I can’t find another master now. Please help me one more time.” Tan Rou said earnestly.
Looking at her sincere gaze, Bai Jing could only compromise. “Alright, but don’t let it slip. If your big brother wants me to perform on the spot, you have to stop him.”
Tan Rou smiled and said, “My big brother wouldn’t ask for that.”
“Big brother, I’m done talking to my master.” Tan Rou called for Tao Zhi.
After Tao Zhi walked in, he stood in front of Bai Jing and respectfully said, “Master Bai, how have you been?”
Bai Jing felt a little guilty. With Tan Rou’s abilities, he should be calling her master instead.
“Good! Hello!” Bai Jing nodded slightly and hurriedly sent them in. “The pharmaceutical lab is ready. Do you want to use it now?””
“I don’t have time today. I’m just here to get some ingredients. I’ll have to trouble Uncle Bai to prepare the medicinal ingredients I need.” Tan Rou said.
“Sure, I’ll find it for you.” Bai Jing replied..
