Ms. Tan Is The Real Boss Chapter 1334: The contradiction arose in 1333

Chapter 1334: The contradiction arose in 1333

“Do you think I would believe that?” Tan Rou said with great helplessness, “I’m already an adult, and I’m the boss of TR company, can’t I have my own career? You can go see your business partners, and I can go find mine. Have I ever said I wanted to follow you every time you go on a business trip?”

Zhuang Liu had his own reasons, as he said, “People in Country J don’t have a strong sense of law, and their thinking is more aligned with feudal society. I’m very worried about your safety when you go there alone.”

Tan Rou really disliked this kind of reasoning, as she said, “When did I ever say I was going alone? And doesn’t my company have people? I’ll arrange for my R&D team to go with me, and as for safety, you don’t have to worry about it, I’m capable of protecting myself.”

Zhuang Liu still couldn’t rest easy about Tan Rou, “Tan Rou, I should still go with you. Once we arrive in Country J, I won’t disturb your work, you don’t have to mind me.”

The first time she went abroad, Tan Rou had just come of age, and she thought it was normal for Zhuang Liu to come along. Adults always worry about their children’s safety and follow them, so Tan Rou didn’t stop Zhuang Liu then.

But now it’s different, Tan Rou is already in her twenties, and she definitely doesn’t want to be treated as a child. Besides, Tan Rou has lived two lifetimes, and the age of both lives combined is over forty; she’s long stopped being a child and doesn’t need someone to follow her anymore.

“Suit yourself,” Tan Rou said with an unpleasant tone, “If you want to follow me, then follow.”

Zhuang Liu was taken aback. He quickly explained, “Tan Rou, it’s not about following you, but concern for your safety…”

“Mhm.” Tan Rou still had that indifferent expression, “You have your reasons, I know.” After saying so, Tan Rou just sat quietly at the table, sipping tea, and didn’t utter another word.

Xiao Mo witnessed Tan Rou and Zhuang Liu quarrel for the first time. He had thought that with a relationship like theirs, they would never argue. To his surprise, they could fight just like any ordinary couple.

“President Zhuang, this is where you’re wrong,” Hang Wei boldly criticized Zhuang Liu, “Our boss is also an adult, and she’s the boss of a company, too. You can’t always treat her as a little girl, there comes a time when you must let go.”

Zhuang Liu said, “You don’t understand how I feel…”

“It’s as if none of us have a wife,” Hang Wei didn’t like Zhuang Liu’s words, “Everyone here has a wife, I know exactly what you’re feeling. Every time my wife wants to go out and have fun with her good friends, I want to go along, but they’re all women, what would it mean for a big man like me to join?”

“This is different from going on a trip, Tan Rou is going abroad, and besides, the public security is not good, I’m worried about her safety,” Zhuang Liu argued.

Hang Wei smiled, “President Zhuang, not to knock you down, but I don’t think you could even win against our boss. Our boss knows how to use both firearms and melee weapons, do you know how?”

If it were any normal day, Hang Wei wouldn’t dare to mock Zhuang Liu with these words, but today Zhuang Liu’s att.i.tude had displeased him greatly. Hang Wei had always had immense respect for Tan Rou; he wouldn’t say those protective phrases just because she was a woman, because Tan Rou didn’t need excessive protection. What she needed was a stage to showcase her abilities.

Tan Rou could face dangers on her own and conquer them; she didn’t need someone else to put her under a protective shield. What she needed were teammates who could stand with her.

“I…” Zhuang Liu had never sparred with Tan Rou, and he didn’t know who would win between them, “I couldn’t possibly compete with her…”

“Our boss is not a flower in a greenhouse, she has her own business to run, and she doesn’t need someone to constantly follow her,” Hang Wei picked up his coat and said, “Discuss this at home if there’s anything, don’t affect others from getting off work here.”

Tan Rou also got her clothes and bag ready, “Mhm, let’s not discuss this anymore. We haven’t even set a departure time yet, we’ll talk about it once it’s decided.”

Zhuang Liu weakly asked, “Where will you sleep tonight?”

Tan Rou paused in her steps, replying, “My mom asked me to come home.”
