Huh? Are villainous bosses this easy to flirt with?

Chapter 91 Tao Family Birthday Banquet (2)

"You naughty child! Your older sister has already told you to go inside, so go inside! Why are you staying here..."

"Peng Yu".

Tao Ying abruptly interrupted him, her tone full of displeasure.

“Tao Tao is my own brother. He can do whatever he wants. Even if he makes a mistake, the Tao family will take responsibility. It’s not your place to say that.”

Peng Yu's expression turned ugly for a moment, he pursed his lips, but ultimately said nothing.

Anyway, he finally understood that Tao Tao was a precious treasure in their Tao family.

Outsiders can't scold them, can't say anything to them, and can't even educate them.

Because Tao Tao likes that minor celebrity named Xie Qing, he will have to personally apologize to Xie Qing when she arrives.

He felt incredibly frustrated, but dared not lash out on the spot.

Tao Tao ignored Peng Yu, treating him as if he were invisible.

He disliked his brother-in-law to no end, especially after learning that the man had bullied his brother Qing.

A gust of cold wind blew by, and Tao Tao sneezed. She subconsciously shrank her neck, but still stubbornly continued to wait outside.

After warning Peng Yu, Tao Ying looked up and saw her younger brother shivering from the cold. She felt a pang of heartache and turned to the maid standing to the side, instructing, "Go and get the young master a coat."

The maid left upon hearing the noise, while Tao Ying gently patted her younger brother's fluffy head in a tender tone.

"The maid will bring the clothes in a little while. Your sister will be busy entertaining guests and may not be able to look after you sometimes, so please don't run around, little one."

Tao Tao nodded obediently, "Big sister, I'm not a child anymore. You go and greet the guests, don't worry about me."

Tao Ying reached out and gently pinched Tao Tao's chubby cheeks, smiling indulgently, "My little darling is so sensible."

Tao Tao felt embarrassed by the praise, as he felt he hadn't done anything at all.

Just then, Tao Ying caught a glimpse of someone walking towards them out of the corner of her eye. She withdrew her hand, put on a polite smile, and immediately stepped forward to greet the person warmly.

"Master Gu, it's an honor to have you here."

Gu Jiming raised his eyes, his voice aged yet dignified, "Hahaha... Miss Tao, you're too kind. Our two families are almost in-laws, so we should be closer."

After saying that, he turned his head slightly, looked at Gu Yan who was following behind him, and called out in an unquestionable tone, "Gu Yan, come here."

Gu Yan was extremely unwilling, and even his brows furrowed involuntarily.

But with her grandfather present, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and step forward.

He knew in his heart that his grandfather had come here today specifically to discuss the marriage with the Tao family.

This means that after tonight, he will probably be completely bound to the fourth young lady of the Tao family.

Tao Ying's gaze swept over Gu Yan for a moment, then a smile bloomed on her face as she praised, "Old Gu, your grandson is truly a handsome man. It seems my little sister is in for a treat."

"Hahaha...Not at all, Gu Yan is truly blessed to have married the fourth young lady of the Tao family."

Tao Ying covered her mouth and smiled, "Mr. Gu, you flatter me. Please go in first. My father is inside too."

Gu Jiming nodded and walked inside with steady steps, with Gu Yan following closely behind.

Once everyone had gone, Tao Ying's expression changed instantly. She muttered under her breath, "Ha, not even married yet, and already thinking about getting close to the Tao family and sucking their blood. What an old fox."

Tao Tao, who was not far away, was completely unaware of what was happening over there. Of course, even if he did know, he wouldn't be able to help.

He reached out and took the coat from the maid, instinctively saying, "Thank you."

The maid was visibly stunned upon hearing this, as if frozen in place.

She had taken a few months off due to family matters. When she returned, she kept hearing people around her say that the young master of the Tao family had a drastic change in personality after waking up from a car accident, becoming well-behaved and sensible. But she didn't believe it.

She had been a maid in the Tao family for twelve years, and she knew very well what kind of person he was.

He was extremely wicked as a child, and became even more arrogant and domineering as an adult.

But after observing him for the past few days, she discovered that the young master seemed to have really changed.

The young master used to treat servants like dirt, so how could he possibly say "thank you"?

After putting on her coat, Tao Tao noticed the maid's intense gaze and asked somewhat awkwardly, "Wh...what's wrong?"

The maid realized that she seemed to have startled him, so she quickly looked away and pretended to be looking at where she was.

Tao Tao immediately breathed a sigh of relief, but still secretly moved to the side.

Suddenly, someone slapped his shoulder hard, accompanied by a threatening shout.

This sudden attack startled him so much that he froze on the spot, unable to move.

"Hey, got scared, huh!"

With a hint of smugness from her successful prank, Tao Yue deliberately dragged out her words.

She waited for a while, but seeing that he still didn't react, she became curious and went around to stand in front of him.

Upon closer inspection, it was astonishing to see that the other person's eyes were already red-rimmed, making them look like a little rabbit.

Her eyes were brimming with tears, as if they were about to burst forth at any moment.

Tao Yue: Oh no, we've gone too far.

"I'm so sorry, so sorry, so sorry... Sis, I was wrong, I shouldn't have scared you. I was just playing around, don't cry..."

Tao Yue hurriedly began to comfort him, taking out tissues from her suit pants and wiping away his tears.

Out of the corner of her eye, she saw that her older sister had started to notice them, and she thought, "Oh no, I'm going to get scolded."

Tao Ying noticed the commotion and quickly went over. Seeing Tao Tao with red eyes, she hurriedly asked, "Xiao Bao, what's wrong? Who bullied you?"

Tao Yue was about to raise her hand to apologize when she heard her younger brother say, "Big sister, no one bullied me. It's just that the wind was too dry and it hurt my eyes."

Tao Yue: Waaaaah~ I'm so touched by Taobao, my dear sister. I will never forget your kindness.

Tao Yue snapped out of her daze and quickly chimed in, "Yeah, yeah, it's all because of this damn cold wind, it made my little Tao Tao's face so cold..."

As they talked, Tian Gang even started blaming Tao Ying.

"Hey lady, how could you let Tao Tao stand outside? It's so cold outside, what if Tao Tao catches a cold?"

Tao Ying was silent for a moment before speaking, "It was my oversight; I shouldn't have let Xiao Bao stand here in the cold wind."

She looked up at Tao Tao, her expression softening, and advised, "Xiao Bao, why don't you go inside with your third sister first?"

Tao Yue nodded in agreement, "Yes, yes, let's go in and find some treasures! Our father will be making an appearance later and needs us to accompany him."
