Ms. Tan Is The Real Boss Chapter 1380: The unspeakable 1379

Chapter 1380: The unspeakable 1379

Tan Rou noticed that something was off with the atmosphere; she laughed awkwardly and asked, “Did I ask something I shouldn’t have?”

One of the men with a big beard glanced at her and said, “You’re not from our country, are you?”

Tan Rou replied, “I’m not from J country; I’m from another country and plan to attend an academic conference.”

The bearded man nodded and said, “No wonder you speak the J language so fluently; you’re a student, right? Are you studying linguistics?”

“No.” Since Tan Rou wanted to extract information, she needed to gain these people’s trust, so she made up a specialty, “I’m studying mechanical kinetics.”

The bearded man laughed and said, “Ah, so you’re here for the robotics exchange meeting, huh?”

“Ah? Oh, yes, I’m here for the robotics exchange meeting.” Tan Rou didn’t know which meeting it was but guessed from the name what it was about, “I think it’s an opportunity to broaden my horizons, so I came over.”

The bearded man was very hospitable, “Young lady, sit down and have some food, drink some wine!”

Tan Rou, not good with alcohol and wary of drinking from strangers, only ate some nuts.

“I’m actually a bit curious about the royal family. When I was in college, I heard friends talk about Princess Samiyi; some people say she’s not married yet, is that true?” Tan Rou asked again.

This time more people answered her, but they didn’t tell her about Princess Samiyi, only warned her not to ask anymore to avoid trouble.

Tan Rou immediately stopped asking and said, “Oh, I won’t ask anymore then; I’d better focus on my nuts.”

The group munched on nuts and drank alcohol, and before long, they got drunk. The bearded man who had been talking to Tan Rou suddenly started, “Do you want to know about the princess?”

Tan Rou’s eyes darted around, then she shook her head, “If this is a secret that shouldn’t be shared, I’d rather not hear it.”

The bearded man set his bottle down, wiped his mouth, and said, “Actually, it’s not a secret; many people know about it, it’s just the King doesn’t allow anyone to discuss it.”

His friend immediately stopped him, “Kas, you’ve had too much to drink tonight. Stop drinking; let’s go back and rest.”

The man called Kas waved his hand and said, “I haven’t had too much. With this kind of drink, I could have three more bottles!”

Tan Rou applauded, “You really can hold your liquor!”

Her comment drew Kas’s attention, and he looked at her, “Everyone says the princess hasn’t married because she can’t bear to leave her brother and mother, but in fact… in fact, it’s because the princess already married, her man died, and n.o.body else knows.”

Kas’s friend immediately covered his mouth; apologizing to Tan Rou, he dragged Kas away.

As Kas was leaving, he kept saying, “The princess actually has a husband, has children…”

The others laughed, “There goes Kas with his nonsense again; we don’t know where he gets these rumors, spouting them every now and then, making them sound so real. People who don’t know any better might think he’s the princess’s husband himself.”

Tan Rou then inquired about Kas, “This Mr. Kas sure is interesting. I wonder where he works, whether I could see him again?”

The talkative person laughed, “You’re not falling for Kas, are you?”

Tan Rou thought to herself that she wasn’t blind enough to fall for this scruffy man.

“Just curious,” Tan Rou said.

After careful thought, the person replied, “Kas seems to run a flower shop nearby. Don’t be fooled by his rough appearance; he’s actually a very meticulous person.”

Tan Rou really couldn’t a.s.sociate the tall Kas with a florist because he looked too fierce. He didn’t seem like someone who could care for flowers; he resembled a lumberjack more than anything.

“Young lady, you should curb your curiosity,” the person kindly admonished Tan Rou, “In our country, Princess Samiyi is not someone who can be freely discussed. If our conversation reaches the King’s ears, it would bring trouble for us all.”
