After being read she became a full-time daughter: Chapter 17

  Tan Li looked towards the familiar voice and twitched her lips, “Why is it you again?”

  ”What do you think?” Ah Heng operated his electric wheelchair and came to Tan Li.

  ”…” Tan Li’s eyes were attracted by his electric wheelchair. “Where did you buy this wheelchair?”

  Ah Heng:?

  ”I want to buy one, too.” Tan Li envied it with all her heart, “How great it is, I don’t even have to walk when I go out.”

  This is completely in line with her principle of never standing if she can sit.

  ”…Are you serious?” Ah Heng looked up at her with a strange expression, “Are you being sarcastic?”

  Tan Li was puzzled, “Why are you being so sarcastic when I’m being so nice? I’m such a kind person.”

  Ah Heng twitched his lips, looking speechless.

  ”Speaking of which…” Ah Heng thought Tan Li was going to say something incoherent again, but she suddenly changed the subject and said with a half-smile, “You followed me?”

  Ah Heng paused, then asked with interest, “What do you think?”

  ”Wow.” Tan Li covered her mouth and said, “What a pervert.”

  Ah Heng followed suit, “Wow, you’re so smart.”

  Tan Li: …met my match.

  She heard that there were fewer and fewer people in the mall, as if the mall was being cleared, and asked curiously, “Whose family are you from?”

  I have learned how to spend money by clearing the venue!

  ”I am…” Ah Heng curled his lips, “Guess.”

  Tan Li: “…You are really childish, little brat, you know that?”

  ”I asked you who you were last time, but you didn’t tell me.” Ah Heng shrugged, subtly giving Tan Li a sense of déjà vu, “Why do you think I will answer your questions honestly?”

  ”If you have the ability, go check it yourself.”

  Tan Li spread her hands without even thinking, “Forget it, I don’t have the ability.”

  ”If you don’t want to talk about it, forget it. I’m not that curious.”

  ”As a human being,” Tan Li said thoughtfully, “there are always one or two things you don’t want to talk about. I definitely won’t force you.”

  Ah Heng: “…”

  There is a feeling of losing before you even feel like you have won.

  ”…I stole your lines, don’t you have any other feelings?” After a long time, Ah Heng finally uttered a word.

  Was this her customary shopping line?

  Tan Li shrugged, “I don’t feel anything.”

  On the contrary, it’s the same purchasing method, and it’s quite friendly.

  Seeing that she was unmoved, Ah Heng felt annoyed that things were out of his control. He picked up the file bag that had been on his lap and asked, “So you are not interested in this either?”

  Tan Li glanced at the tightly covered file bag and said, “Not interested.”

  ”Oh?” Ah Heng opened the file bag, pulled out a piece of paper, and read aloud, “Tan Li, 23 years old, grew up in Blue Sky Kindergarten.”

  ”I have been sensitive and fragile since childhood, and I have a conflict-avoiding personality…” He slowly slowed down his speech, staring at Tan Li with his bottomless eyes, “You really have no interest at all?”

  Tan Li: “No.”

  ”…” Ah Heng narrowed his eyes, “Really?”

  He pulled out another piece of paper. “When she was 5 years old, she was adopted by a couple. But one year later, she was sent back to the orphanage because…”

  Ah Heng stopped and waited for Tan Li’s reaction.

  Unfortunately, Tan Li still didn’t react at all.

  5 years old? She can’t even remember what happened before she went to the Infinite Flow World. How can we expect her to remember what happened when she was 5 years old?

  But Ah Heng, who was waiting for her reaction, looked very pitiful. Tan Li said kindly, “I am old and my memory is not very good. Let alone things when I was 5 years old, I can hardly remember things that happened a year ago.”

  Ah Heng didn’t get the response he wanted, and felt that the expedited report in his hand was boring.

  ”…But! This bit of information you gave me can still help me recall the past.” Tan Li felt that the little brat in front of her was really difficult to deal with. When things didn’t go his way, he would start to exude a dead aura all over his body. However, for some reasons, she couldn’t stand this kind of aura.

  ”Well, you tell me a story and I’ll treat you to afternoon tea.” Tan Li threw all the bags in her hand into Ah Heng’s arms. “It’s convenient for you to sit down. Help me hold them.”

  ”Hey! Is there any restaurant nearby?” He took out his cell phone and started searching.

  Ah Heng looked at the bag that was suddenly stuffed into his arms with a confused look on his face. His thighs, which were still feeling, were almost crushed to unconsciousness by the sudden weight.

  Seeing that the bags were about to fall to the ground, he subconsciously hugged the bags in his arms to prevent them from falling to the ground.

  ……Heavy!

  Ah Heng’s face darkened, “Take your bag away!”

  ”Help me hold it for a while.” Tan Li was indifferent, “I’m looking for a restaurant to treat you.”

  ”…I know where there’s a good store. I’ll take you there.” Ah Heng couldn’t stand Tan Li’s endless searching. “I can help you carry these bags. You can push my wheelchair for me.”

  Tan Li glanced at him.

  To be honest, Ah Heng is holding her shopping bags in both hands and has no free hands to control the wheelchair.

  but……

  Tan Li: “Tell me, can you add another person to your wheelchair?”

  I don’t want to walk, I want to sit.

  ”…” Ah Heng didn’t remember how many times he had been speechless. His tone at this moment was particularly firm, “No!”

  ”Tsk.” Tan Li was dissatisfied, “Then let those bodyguards hiding outside help you push it.”

  A dark light flashed in Ah Heng’s dark eyes. He didn’t ask Tan Li “How did you know that my bodyguards were outside?”, but he didn’t know what he did, and four bodyguards immediately came in from outside the store.

  ”You hold these bags.” Ah Heng handed the bag that Tan Li threw to him to the bodyguards with disdain, but did not let any of the four bodyguards push his wheelchair.

  He placed his right hand on the joystick and said to Tan Li, “Let’s go.”

  ”You haven’t paid yet.” Tan Li stood up for the clerk who had not dared to speak since before, “Go to the other line and pay.”

  The clerk huddled in the corner, feeling grateful but also unable to cry: Big Buddhas, please go away, there’s no need to be so considerate.

  Ah Heng didn’t even turn his head. One of the four bodyguards walked to the clerk and took out a card. “Please pay with this card.”

  ”Can we go now?” Ah Heng just looked at Tan Li from beginning to end.

  Tan Li: “Okay, let’s go.”

  **

  Ah Heng took Tan Li to a quiet teahouse.

  I don’t know what kind of incense is lit inside, but it makes people feel calm and peaceful for some reason.

  The bodyguard put Tan Li’s shopping bag aside and quietly walked out.

  Tan Li looked around and asked, “Why is there no one here?”

  ”I’ve reserved the place.” Ah Heng pushed the file bag in front of Tan Li, “Here you go.”

  Tan Li let the file bag lie on the table, “Why do I need this?”

  ”…Tan Pei also has a similar copy.” Ah Heng stared at Tan Li, as if trying to read something from her face. “Don’t you want to know what kind of person you are in the eyes of your biological father?”

  ”Not interested.” Tan Li lazily slumped in the chair, “You are quite free, aren’t you?”

  Why do you investigate other people’s privacy for no reason?

  Ah Heng seemed to understand what Tan Li had not said yet, and sneered, “I just wanted to see if this person who said he would stop me from dying but then disappeared was actually a liar.”

  ”Oh.” Tan Li half-lay on the chair with her waist slumped, “You really are quite free.”

  Ah Heng: “…What about you?”

  ”You hit a cripple like me hard, but you don’t care about the fake daughter who stole your status and position at all,” he said with a mocking look, “Are you so generous?”

  Tan Li looked at Ah Heng for a few times and asked, “Are you standing up for me?”

  ”You’re a very nice person.”

  Ah Heng was speechless.

  ”Also,” Tan Li asked doubtfully, “Am I not good to you?”

  ”I think I’ve been pretty good to you, how can you say I’ve hit you hard?”

  Facing her direct gaze, Ah Heng was stunned for a moment, turned his head slightly to avoid it, “You just don’t want to see a dead person, it doesn’t matter whether it’s me or not.”

  Hearing this, Tan Li was a little absent-minded.

  ”You’re right.” She clapped her hands. “Little brat, I thought you were just childish, but it turns out you’re actually quite smart.”

  Just as Ah Heng said, on the day they first met, if Tan Li had not seen him with a suicidal look on his face before he entered the elevator, no matter who he was, Tan Li would never have followed him to the top floor.

  And then, if Ah Heng hadn’t come to her on his own, Tan Li would have forgotten about this insignificant good deed.

  In just a few days, Ah Heng not only found out where she lived, but also her last name and even the true and false daughter incident that the Tan family had been hiding from the outside world…

  ”Ah Heng,” Tan Li said with a smile, “it seems that you really are a perverted stalker.”

  Hearing his name coming out of Tan Li’s mouth, Ah Heng’s heart skipped a beat, but her next words made him frown.

  Ah Heng sneered, “If I’m a perverted stalker, you’re a coward!”

  ”She took away your biological parents, your life that should have been worry-free, your happy childhood, and your vast educational resources,” Ah Heng’s voice became increasingly louder. “Now that you’ve finally come back, you don’t even fight for it. Are you really planning to give all of the Tan family’s assets to Tan Xinman, the fake daughter?”

  emmm……

  Tan Li looked at him curiously, “Why are you more excited than me, the related party?”

  ”…” Ah Heng turned his head away, “I just can’t stand stupid people.”

  Tan Li’s kind feeling towards young people reappeared, “Little brother, you are so cute.”

  ”Cough, cough, cough!” Ah Heng choked himself and his face turned red, but Tan Li just smiled and had no intention of helping him calm down.

  ”Since you checked, you should know that Tan Xinman didn’t know about this until she became an adult.” Tan Li had long known from the book why she and Tan Xinman were swapped. “This person wasn’t the initiator, it’s so inappropriate to blame her for everything.”

  Ah Heng said sarcastically, “…You are quite generous.”

  ”Oh! I am so kind.” Tan Li expressed high confidence in herself, “I don’t mind you calling me a saint.”

  ”…” Ah Heng was speechless because of her behavior.

  Tan Li was amused by his speechless look and reached out her hand——

  ”Little brother, sister knows you care about me.” Tan Li patted Ah Heng on the head and took her hand back in time before he got angry.

  Her voice suddenly became extremely cold, “But I really don’t care.”

  Tan Li’s expression seemed to be saying, have you ever seen an elephant and an ant arguing with each other?

  ”I have money and free time now,” the chill disappeared in an instant, and Tan Li became lazy again, “Isn’t it better than 996[1]a work schedule where employees work from 9 AM to 9 PM, six days a week, for a total of 72 hours per week or 007[2]a work culture where employees work 24 hours a day, 7 days a week?”

  ”Young man, I finally retired, and you still want me to work so hard, that’s too much.”

  Ah Heng looked at her, as if he was looking through her to see something else, “You have a good idea. Aren’t you worried that by then, Tan Xinman will completely control the Tan Group and you won’t even have a place to stand?”

  Hearing this, Tan Li laughed strangely.
