Tan Jing was happy. “Dad, do I need to prepare anything?”
...Tan Song sized her up. “Go get your hair done and change into a new set of clothes. Don’t wear this to the banquet.”
“I don’t have that much money on me to buy new clothes,” Tan Jing said as she pinched the cuffs of her school uniform.
Tan Song’s expression did not look too good, but he still gave her a card. “Take the money and buy some new clothes. Don’t let others think that our family is bankrupt.”
“Thank you, Dad.” Tan Jing thanked him and accepted the card. “Dad, when’s the banquet?”
“Next Friday,” said Tan Song.
“Hmm?” Tan Jing was a little surprised. “The eldest daughter from the Tao family also has her birthday on friday?”
“What’s wrong?” Tan Song asked, puzzled. “Don’t you have time on Friday?”
“It’s also my birthday.” Tan Jing said quietly. It was obvious that Tan Song and Chen Yi didn’t remember.
“Oh?” Tan Song thought for a moment. Moreover, Tan Ron’s birthday was also on that day. However, they had never celebrated Tan Ron’s birthday before, so they naturally did not remember it very clearly.
“Tan Ron’s birthday is also on that day.” Tan Jing said indignantly.
“I don’t know.” Tan Song denied it directly. “We never celebrated her birthday.”
Tan Jing felt much better after hearing that. It turned out that Tan Ron had never celebrated her birthday before. How tragic! Thinking of Tan Rou, she remembered where Tan Ron and the others were living now. Could there be some relationship between the Tao family in the Capital and Tan Ron’s family?
No way! Tan Jing convinced herself.
What kind of status did Tan Ron have? I low could she have anything to do with the Tao family from the Capital?
“Get ready for the banquet on Friday.” Tan Song walked towards the room. “Don’t disappoint me.”
Tan Jing wanted to celebrate her birthday, but for the sake of her future, this sacrifice was nothing. It was really worth it for her to exchange one birthday of hers for a future where she could live comfortably.
“I understand.” Tan Jing did not care about Tan Song and Li Wen anymore. She would leave in the future anyway. When the time came, Tan Song could find whoever he wanted. It had nothing to do with her.
On the other side, when Tan Rou heard that her birthday was on Friday, she was so shocked that her food spilled out of her mouth. “My birthday?”
“Yeah! It’s your birthday this Friday.” Mrs. Tao looked at her expression and said with heartache.
“What about Dad’s birthday?” Tan Rou said, “I haven’t sent out the present yet.”
“There’s still some time before his. We’ll celebrate your birthday first.”
Tan Rou felt that her parents were really good at hiding things. They actually didn’t reveal any information. If they didn’t say anything, she really wouldn’t have remembered her birthday.
“I…” Tan Rou was at a loss. “There’s no need to celebrate my birthday. We can just buy a cake and have dinner together. A simple birthday celebration will do.”
“That won’t do!” Mrs. Tao’s attitude was very firm. “We must celebrate. Our family must hold a celebration.
Tan Rou guessed that they wanted to hold a small event. Her grandparents would be there and so would some of her close friends.
“Alright.” Tan Rou agreed. “Remember to tell me where it will be held when it’s approaching. I don’t want to know about it now. I want it to be a surprise.”
After living for two lifetimes, Tan Rou no longer cared about birthdays. However, this was a birthday that her family wanted to celebrate for her, so she was still looking forward to it.
Tan Rou went back to her room to rest after dinner, while the Tao family gathered around the kitchen to talk.
“My poor child, she doesn’t even remember his birthday.” Mrs. Tao wiped her tears in the kitchen. “The Tan family is a bunch of evil bastards. They didn’t even celebrate my daughter’s birthday. I’m going to teach them a lesson.”
Tao Zheng and Tao Zhi were in charge of washing the dishes.
Tao Zheng said, “Don’t worry, mom. This time, we will definitely celebrate our sister’s birthday.””
“What do Dad and Mom have in mind?” Tao Zhi asked.
The Tao family’s parents looked at each other. Then, Mr. Tao said solemnly, “This is Xiao Ron’s 18th birthday. It is also the age when she becomes an adult. We have to do something for her.”
“We’re going to give our daughter an unprecedented gift.”
Tao Zhi smiled and said, “I’ll only start work after that.”
Tao Zheng was confused. “What gift are you going to give Xiao Rou?”
Tao Zhi handed the plate to his brother. “Wash the dishes properly and prepare a gift for Rourou. Don’t think too much about anything else.”
“Fine.” Tao Zheng didn’t like to know about what the others were up to and so he just bothered with his own things..
