Capítulo 36: Such Strong Scheming
Editor: Atlas Studios
Tan Xu smiled. "What a coincidence. You all have your meal here. Come, let's go and see what you've found this time."
The last sentence was directed at Yan Zhao.
Yan Zhao didn't say anything, his eyes just looked at Su Muxue's direction.
The moment he entered, he saw her lying there. He did not ask when he saw that the Su family, who doted on her so much, had no reaction.. However, he thought of a possibility and asked with a somewhat trembling voice, "Did… something happen to her?"
Why did the Su family suddenly come to visit the Tan family, which they had never had much relations with?
Could it be that something happened to Su Muxue and they came to look for Tan Xu to cure her illness?
What kind of serious illness did she have that they needed for Tan Xu to check on her?
Yan Zhao didn't remember that Su Muxue had just been checked by Tan Xu last week.
"You little brat, don't you want my sister to be well?" Su Wangting retorted. He carried Su Muxue and looked at Tan Xu. "Old Master Tan, which room can Mu Xue sleep in?"
"The room at the end of the second floor will do."
As Tan Xu spoke, a servant guided Su Wangting. "Please follow me."
When Tan Xu brought Yan Zhao into the study room, he glanced at Tan Xinshu, her eyes were filled with disappointment.
He knew that his granddaughter was full of talent, but was her talent genuine?
It's not like if he hadn't tested her before. She'd managed to catch half of those attempts, but the other half made her look like a block of wood. These two completely different reactions made Tan Xu wonder if there were two people living inside his granddaughter.
Only two personalities could explain her completely different reactions.
However, Tan Xu never expected her to belittle her peers.
If he hadn't known the real reason why the young lady of the Su family was unconscious, wouldn't he have been affected by her?
She was so young, where did such strong scheming come from?
"Mr. Tan, Su Muxue…"
After entering the study, Yan Zhao no longer had anything to fear and asked directly.
"That girl is fine. I just brought her around the herb garden. She got tired and she's just resting now."
Tan Xu didn't reveal Su Muxue's ability. Su Muxue had the ability, but it was up to her whether she wanted to tell others or not.
Opening the bag, Tan Xu took a closer look. "Hmm, the harvest this time is not bad. Is this really the harvest of one day and two nights?"
Yan Zhao nodded. "Very few people go to that mountain outside the city. It only takes two hours to get there by car."
"Not bad, young man. Didn't you encounter anything else on the mountain?" Tan Xu praised while probing.
He had also been to the mountain outside the city, but it was more than ten years ago. The mountain was tall and towering. The mountain was surrounded by fog all year round. Rumor had it that an old immortal lived there. Tan Xu refused to believe it.
That kind of mountain only produced ferocious tigers in the forest. When ordinary people went to explore, they would only dare to climb halfway up the mountain. But looking at the herbs that Yan Zhao brought back, many of them only grew deep in the mountain.
"I did, but I made it through all of them safely." Yan Zhao didn't elaborate on the dangers. He changed his clothes before he came here, but he just didn't look as exquisite as he did in the Su family residence.
"Haha, young man, you're all alone. Why are you working so hard?" Tan Xu calculated the bill and transferred the money to Yan Zhao. He even gave him more to prevent Yan Zhao from running away.
Yan Zhao looked at the message on his phone and pursed his lips, not saying anything.
"Is it because of the girl sleeping outside?"
Seeing that Yan Zhao didn't deny it, Tan Xu continued, "Judging from how much the Su family dotes on that girl, the future son-in-law of the Su family must be very carefully selected. Even if their family backgrounds are not the same as each other, it definitely can't be any lower, right?"
Yan Zhao didn't respond. "You can look for me next time if you need anything."
