96 096 I want to find sister Jingjing
Tao Zheng thought that Tao Qi was throwing a tantrum because he didnât get enough attention at first. So, he shook his head helplessly and let Tao Qi do as he wished.
Tan Rou had been observing Tao Qi the whole time. Seeing him run away with a sad and angry face, she laughed secretly in her heart.
The brat didnât think that Tao Zheng would change his opinion of her. Tao Qi was so angry that his entire face turned red. How cute!
Tao Qiâs face was droopy as he ran back to the dining table and sat down.
Mr. And Mrs. Tao assumed the same as Tao Zheng, thinking that Tao Qi was throwing a childish tantrum and was jealous of Tan Rou because he didnât receive the full attention of his family when he returned home. They even shook their heads and laughed at how childish he was.
Mother Tao held the dish and teased Tao Qi on purpose, âOh my! The red braised pork looks good today. Who would like to have them tonight? Where should I put it?â
Tao Qiâs eyes lit up but he still looked at Tan Rou awkwardly before saying, âMe!!! I want it!!â
Mother Tao placed the red braised meat in front of Tao Qi lovingly and beckoned for Tan Rou and Tao Zheng to quickly take their seats. She also carefully placed the two childrenâs favourite dishes in front of them.
Father Tao looked at his children, who were well-behaved, sensible, lively, and cheerful, and his wife, who was virtuous. He suddenly felt emotional. Days like these were comforting and comfortable. If his other son came home as well, it would be a real family reunion. It would be worth it even if you gave him a mountain of gold or silver!
Before father Tao could fully enjoy this happiness, Tao Qiâs big eyes rolled and he had an idea.
Tao Qi got up, ran to the coffee table, picked up the phone and was ready to make a call.
âWhatâs wrong, Xiao Qi?â Tao Zheng asked with concern. âYou donât even want the red braised meat? Whatâs the matter?â
Tao Qi turned around with a smile. âIâm going to ask my sister to come over. She loves red braised pork just as much as me. I havenât seen my sister in a long time. I miss her!â
As soon as these words came out, Tan Rou raised her eyebrows in a calm and unruffled manner but she didnât say anything. As for the rest of them, their faces changed and they immediately had a serious look on their faces.
âYour sister is sitting right here. Thereâs no other sister. Come back and eat!â Mr. Tao chuckled.
Mrs. Tao frowned as well and tried to persuade him, âXiaoqi, what did I tell you just now? Stop messing around. Come back and letâs eat!â
Hearing his parents say this, Tao Qi felt unhappy. Ever since he returned home, his parents and brotherâs attitude had been so strange. They didnât mention Tan Jing at all and were so good to that bad woman Tan Rou!
Tao Qi couldnât hold back the dissatisfaction in his heart any longer and shouted, âI only have one Sister and thatâs Tan Jing! I donât know the one sitting at the table and I canât eat looking at her!â
Mr. And Mrs. Tao were both angry and helpless. They quickly looked at Tan Rou uneasily, afraid that Tan Rou would be hurt by these words.
Tan Rou shook her head and used her expression to tell them that she was fine with it.
Although Tao Zheng usually doted on his little brother, he still became angry when he heard this. He immediately brought out his authority as an older brother and rebuked loudly, âTao Qi, there are some things you donât know yet, so stop it with the nonsense! Tan Jing doesnât deserve to be in our house anymore. Quickly come over and apologize to my sister. Iâll talk to you about the other things later!â
Mrs. Taoâs face turned serious as well. She no longer tried to guide Tao Qi patiently like before. Instead, she spoke firmly to her youngest son, â Xiao Qi, come and apologize to your sister. No matter what, you shouldnât have said that. Sheâs your sister, not your enemy!â
Even though Father Tao didnât say anything, he stared at Tao Qi sternly. He undoubtedly agreed with Mother Taoâs point of view.
eeing that his family was so strict with him, Tao Qi was both scared and aggrieved. He started wailing. âMom, didnât you dote on Sister Jingjing in the past? Why is everything like this now?! Itâs all her fault! Sheâs the reason why Sister Jingjing couldnât return to our house and now youâre scolding me for her?! I hate her!!! Sheâs my enemy!â
Tao Qi couldnât stand his family anymore. He cried and ran back to his room, slamming the door.
He didnât know why everything in the house had changed the moment he returned!
Mrs. Tao wanted to run up to comfort him but when she thought about what Tao Qi had just said, she held herself back.
This child was too willful. It was all their fault for spoiling Tao Qi. Although it was a good thing for him to be independent at such a young age, it also made him develop a lot of bad habits. He always has thoughts of his own.
Father Tao sighed heavily and said with a serious expression, âDonât worry about him. If he doesnât eat, let him starve. Itâs his punishment for saying the wrong thing.â
