Zhuang Liu turned to reporter Wang and said, “I did have some problems with my health some time ago. Some people tried to make a move when the news broke out and I am well aware of who they are. Unfortunately, those parasites in the company did not get what they wanted. I met someone to whom I am indebted, and my body is much better now. I have more energy to deal with those people who took advantage of the situation.”

Reporter Wang nodded. “Then can I take it that this is also an opportunity to help you eliminate some disloyal partners, such as your previous soon-to-be in-laws, the Tan Family?”

Zhuang Liu kept it a secret and did not say it out loud, he only explained plainly, “The sandstorm is an unavoidable challenge. The fittest will survive. Everyone has their own independent judgment. I can only say that the choice is a two-way street. If the other party has other thoughts, I’m willing to accept them. I only need a partner who is compatible with me, including the person I’m marrying.”

Reporter Wang hurriedly asked, “What is a good match for you? Are You referring to the fact that the Tan family is far from the Zhuang family in terms of status and financial resources, and is unworthy of a marriage alliance with you?”

Zhuang Liu shook his head, “Good match does not refer to status and financial resources. It refers to character, upbringing, and knowledge. It is very clear that the Tan family’s recent actions do not quite match my values. We have reluctantly parted on good terms, as a token of goodwill to the older generation.”

Tan Rou listened to Zhuang Liu’s words and agreed in her heart. The relationship between people does not always revolve around money and status. Those who only valued these are merely people whom they work with.

Once Zhuang Liu’s words get out, many elites in the society would only follow the Zhuang family’s attitude and dislike the Tan family even more. Tan Rou was happy to see such a situation, and she knew in her heart that Zhuang Liu was helping her take revenge, making the Tan family suffer.

Just as she was thinking, she did not expect Zhuang Liu to turn around and look at Tan Rou after he finished speaking. His gaze was deep and sincere. Tan Rou’s face immediately turned red. Why was he looking at her like that for no reason?

Reporter Wang had a gossipy look on her face. Her sharp professional sense was telling her that there was something going on between Zhuang Liu and Tan Rou, she asked again, “Then this Miss Tan, is she the person that you mentioned just now? Is she someone you recognize as a match for you?”

Tan Rou’s face turned even redder. Sitting on the sofa, she was at a loss. She wanted to explain, but it wasn’t appropriate for her to interrupt.

Zhuang Liu smiled. He didn’t want to put pressure on Tan Rou. He was also afraid that if word got out, it would bring unnecessary trouble to Tan Rou. Thus, he only hinted vaguely, “This Miss Tan is indeed someone I respect. She has taught me a lot and helped me a lot. As for what you were hinting at, I think I still have to respect her wishes and work towards it.”

Tan Rou blushed as she looked at Zhuang Liu’s smiling side profile. Her heart palpitated. What did he mean? Acknowledging her made Tan Rou happy, but the rest of his words were a little strange. Work hard or something. Those who didn’t know better would think that he was wooing her!

Zhuang Liu didn’t continue. He bowed slightly and ended the interview.

Xiao Mo went forward and led reporter Wang out of the room. Reporter Wang was satisfied with today’s interview. Se thanked her profusely and even looked at Tan Rou with gratitude and gave her blessings.

Tan Rou smiled helplessly. She was afraid that this reporter had already tacitly acknowledged her relationship with Zhuang Liu. It would seem abrupt if she decided to suddenly clarify. She could only stand up and politely bid farewell.

Zhuang Liu came to Tan Rou’s side and asked, “Do you feel bored? I’ve made you wait for so long. You must be hungry.”

Tan Rou was still a little embarrassed and shook her head. “It was quite interesting, but why did you say that in the end?”

Zhuang Liu smiled brightly. “If I wasn’t afraid of bringing trouble to you, I would have said it even more bluntly. You are indeed someone I acknowledge. You are my light, someone I’m indebted to.”

Now, Tan Rou was completely embarrassed. She glared at Zhuang Liu in embarrassment. What was wrong with this person? He is exaggerating!

Zhuang Liu was also a little shy. He rubbed the tip of his nose unnaturally. He didn’t want to say too much. If he wanted to confess, he should have done it in a more formal setting. He didn’t want to make things difficult for Tan Rou now.

Thus, Zhuang Liu changed the topic. “Don’t worry. This media company knows its limits. They won’t report carelessly. After the interview, I’m also a little hungry. Let’s go eat!”

Tan Rou reminded him, “Your body has officially entered the treatment stage. You have to be mindful to not work too hard. For example, today’s interview was quite relaxing. It can’t be too intense. It’s a good thing that you’re hungry. You need to replenish your energy. Then let’s go quickly.”

Zhuang Liu listened to Tan Rou’s concern for him. Although it might be due to the doctor’s concern, it made Zhuang Liu feel good.
