Ms. Tan Is The Real Boss Chapter 292 Zhuang Liu's Family

Chapter 292 Zhuang Liu’s Family

Tan Rou and Zhuang Liu said that they were here to buy school supplies, but that was not the case. She was actually here for Bai Jing.

Due to how Zhuang Liu’s body was much better, Bai Jing did not need to be so tired. Therefore, he had time to be at his shop, visit some of his doctors, cleaned the store, sorted out the medicinal herbs, and then studied the prescription.

“Uncle Bai, are you there?” Tan Rou shouted from the door.

“Yes, yes, yes. I’m here!” Bai Jing replied as he sat up from his armchair.

Tan Rou came in with her school bag. “Uncle Bai, I want to borrow your lab. I would also like to buy some medicinal herbs from you.”

Bai Jing was more than happy for her to use the lab. “Feel free to use it. If you need any medicinal herbs, just tell me. If the shop doesn’t have them, I’ll get someone to send them over now.”

“They’re all common herbs. I’m sure you have them in your shop,” Tan Rou said with a smile.

Bai Jing definitely wouldn’t miss the opportunity to speak to Tan Rou. He dragged the armchair to the side, tidied up, and followed Tan Rou into the pharmaceutical lab.

Unlike the herbs that will be boiled in water, these pills would be ingested directly. In order to reduce the contamination of the pills, Tan Rou had to disinfect herself before making the medicine. Bai Jing’s place has the best disinfection system here which was one of the reasons why Tan Rou chose this place.

“Are you going to develop a new medicine again?” Bai Jing asked.

“It’s not considered developing new medicine. I’m just making pills according to the prescription. It’s for Zhuang Liu’s mother,” said Tan Rou.

Bai Jing knew Shen Jing. He asked, “Why did you think of making this for her? Zhuang Liu suggested it?”

“I guess so.” Tan Rou thought for a moment and replied, “Zhuang Liu asked me to do a check up on his mother’s condition. I saw her today and took her pulse. I found that her body was weak and she’s quite afraid of the cold, so I wanted to make some pills for her. Moreover, she won’t be here for long. Pills are convenient to carry with her and eat.”

“Madam Zhuang is here?” Bai Jing was quite surprised. “There’s no news about it at all.”

“She probably wants to keep a low profile,” said Tan Rou.

“Indeed, we need to keep a low profile. Don’t think that Zhuang Liu is very powerful. In fact, his family is a mess.” Bai Jing sighed.

“What happened to their family?” Tan Rou asked curiously.

Bai Jing moved a stool over and sat down to watch. Then, he talked about the Zhuang family. “Zhuang Liu and his mother have been having a hard time, especially Zhuang Liu. After his father’s accident, he had to work part-time before he could finish school. Moreover, he had to work while guarding against the hidden dangers from his family who lived in the Capital.”

“His father?” This was Tan Rou’s first time hearing about Zhuang Liu’s father. Did something happen to his father?

Bai Jing said slowly, “His father was originally the head of the Zhuang family. Ever since he got into a car accident and fell into a comatose state a few years ago, Zhuang Liu and his mother have had a hard time. Zhuang Liu had a problem with his leg, but he still had to protect his mother. It was really not easy. What’s worse is that his uncles in the Capital all want to harm them behind their backs.”

Tan Rou wasn’t surprised at all by the secret struggles among the wealthy families, but she felt sorry for Zhuang Liu. It must have been hard to live such a life.

“So this is the kind of life he lives.” Tan Rou felt bad.

“It is.” Bai Jing’s heart ached for Zhuang Liu too. “His father is lying in the hospital and relying on ventilation and nutrient fluids to survive. His mother doesn’t have the ability to protect him either. He’s not in good health, and he was thrown here by his uncles. He does indeed have a difficult life.

Tan Rou thought about it as well. The Zhuang family in the capital was so powerful, so why would the future successor of the Zhuang family be in such a small city. At first, she thought that it was to train the heir’s ability. Now, it seemed that they had deliberately brought him here to take advantage of his lack of ability to keep him away from the center of power.

“If there’s a chance, I really hope you can make a trip to the capital. If you can cure Zhuang Liu’s father, I’m sure the Zhuang family will reward you beautifully.”

Tan Rou didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Uncle Bai, am I such a greedy person? Even if it’s not for the money, I’ll still pay a visit to Zhuang Liu’s father.”

Bai Jing smiled. “I was short-sighted. Rourou has always been a kind and capable child.”

He actually had his own selfish motives. Back then, it was Zhuang Liu’s father who saved him. After so many years, he had not cured Zhuang Liu, nor had he woken up his benefactor. He couldn’t even nurse Madam Zhuang’s body back to health. He felt very guilty.

Fortunately, everything was developing in a good direction.
