Chapter 118: These Cruel Words Were All Said by Wei Zhiqian
Tan Mo relied on the green tea skills she had acc.u.mulated over thousands of years to not roll her eyes.
How come disgusting people were coming up to her today, one by one?
Tan Mo turned around and saw Qin Murong coming over.
Even the freshmen knew about the legendary Qin Murong.
Especially the boys…they couldn’t help but gaze at this allegedly most beautiful girl in the school.
She was born into the Qin family, was a veritable heiress of a prominent family, and was also the most beautiful girl in school.
Originally, a wealthy heiress like Qin Murong could be seen only on the internet.
They didn’t expect to see her in person at school.
But when Qin Murong walked up to Tan Mo and stood with Tan Mo, everyone discovered that Qin Murong didn’t look…as pretty as she was rumored to be.
Anyway, she looked far worse than Tan Mo.
She was in fact pretty average.
Comparisons are really quite telling.
If Qin Murong had stood there alone, she would have looked breathtakingly gorgeous.
But now that Tan Mo was standing next to her for comparison, Qin Murong immediately paled in comparison.
“Sister Murong.” Tan Mo was still smiling cutely, as if there weren’t any bad blood between her and Qin Murong. “Why are you here? It is still a long time before school starts.”
“Knowing that this was your first day of military training today, I came here to see you.” Qin Murong held Tan Mo’s hand affectionately and said, “How is it going? Are you getting used to it? Are you tired?”
“It’s so tiring.” Tan Mo’s small face was red, and she hadn’t taken off her hat. There was loose hair sticking out of the hat and sticking to her face.
But even so, it still didn’t lessen her beauty.
Thinking about how a little girl has worked so hard made everyone feel really pitying.
Tan Mo acted tired and thought, if I already look so tired please don’t ask me out to eat.
Wei Keli and Qin Murong both had ulterior motives.
“It is like this on the first day, but you will get used to it later,” Qin Murong said with a kind expression on her face. “Go on, I will treat you to a meal. Zhiqian is too busy and might not have time to see you. If he finds out that I didn’t take good care of you, he’ll blame me.”
The freshmen looked at Qin Murong with surprise and curiosity.
From Qin Murong’s words, it seemed as if Qin Murong has a very good relations.h.i.+p with Wei Zhiqian.
To the extent that she is willing to take care of juniors for Wei Zhiqian.
Only wives or girlfriends would do such a thing.
Wait, junior?
Does Tan Mo know Wei Zhiqian?
And she actually needs Qin Murong to come in person to take care of her?
Tan Mo seems to have a very good relations.h.i.+p with Wei Zhiqian.
Of course everyone knows who Wei Zhiqian is.
Tan Mo’s heart got cold. She took her hand out of Qin Murong’s hand and shook her head as if she was afraid of being abducted by a villain. “Sister Murong, if I let my Little Uncle know that I was going to eat with you, he will be angry.”
“How could he be angry?” Qin Murong’s smile froze, and she wanted to hold Tan Mo’s hand again, but Tan Mo evaded her.
Tan Mo took a step back and put both hands behind her back. “Sister Murong, don’t say such misleading words anymore. If you do, you will get in the way of my Little Uncle finding a girlfriend. If the girl my Little Uncle really likes hears this and really thinks that you are very close to my Little Uncle, then she will misunderstand, ignore my Little Uncle, and not like him anymore. And then how pitiful would my Little Uncle be?”
“Tan Mo, what do you mean?!” Qin Murong couldn’t smile anymore.
“My Little Uncle personally said it. He said that he isn’t familiar with you, and he has no plans to develop a relations.h.i.+p with you, so you shouldn’t talk nonsense.” Tan Mo’s voice was crisp and clear, so that everyone present could hear her.
Qin Murong still wanted to play the same trick she had played before, saying things to mislead people.
Then she would let rumors about her and Wei Zhiqian be spread privately.
If she hadn’t encountered her playing this trick, she wouldn’t mention it out of the blue.
No one thought of such a thing in the first place, but after she mentioned it so openly, the rumors would spread even more.
But now, since Qin Murong was daring to set Wei Zhiqian up in front of her, how could she let such a thing happen?
When everyone heard this, they looked at Qin Murong a little differently.
So it was one-sided love from Qin Murong?
And she had even lied!
They heard Tan Mo call Wei Zhiqian Little Uncle, so could it be that Tan Mo was Wei Zhiqian’s niece?
Although the two have different surnames, it is difficult for outsiders to understand their relations.h.i.+p.
But Tan Mo is so familiar with Wei Keli, so she probably wasn’t just calling him Little Uncle to ride on his coattails.
“What am I talking about?” From Qin Murong’s expression, it seemed as if she had been wronged by Tan Mo. “Mo Mo, you misunderstood what I meant. Zhiqian and I are very good friends. You call him Little Uncle, so you are also my junior. He isn’t in school, so as his good friend, naturally I will take care of you for him.
“What are you thinking? From your words, it would seem as if I…” Qin Murong shook her head and lamented, “Forget it, you are young, so I don’t blame you. But you can’t say that again in the future. It would make people misunderstand me, so how would I…be able to hold my head up in the future?”
“Is that so?” Like a little girl who knew nothing about the world, Tan Mo blinked her big eyes, as if she was puzzled.
“Yes.” Qin Murong smiled in a benevolent manner and said, “You are young, so you don’t understand this. It’s okay, but don’t say that about me in the future.”
Hee, hee.
She was just a naive little girl after all, and she could be easily coaxed with just a few words.
Qin Murong really didn’t take Tan Mo very seriously.
She might be a little slick when dealing with people, but she wasn’t her opponent at all.
Tan Mo frowned in distress, then said, “However, my Little Uncle really told me that. Sister Murong, you have personally been rejected by Little Uncle. I even asked him specifically, what was his relations.h.i.+p with you? Little Uncle told me that he isn’t familiar with you at all. He also said that you are very thick-skinned, you’re always pestering him, and you keep spreading rumors to make people misunderstand your relations.h.i.+p with him.
“He also said that you will definitely try to get to him through me. You will pretend to be good to me to approach my Little Uncle by approaching me. He told me that I must not be fooled and must not give you this opportunity.” Tan Mo tilted her head and pretended to think about it for a long time. “Is it that I misunderstood what Little Uncle meant?”
These cruel words had all been said by Wei Zhiqian.
She was just the messenger. She was so kind, cute, and innocent, how could she say such things?
Under the scorching sun, Qin Murong’s face became livid.
She really didn’t expect that Tan Mo would humiliate her to her face like this!
As for Wei Zhiqian…with his temper, he really was capable of saying such a thing.
But she could never admit it!
“Tan Mo,” Qin Murong said harshly in disapproval, “how can you lie at such a young age? You…”
Qin Murong shook her head in disappointment, and she was so anxious that her eyes even started to redden. “Are you lying just because Zhiqian isn’t here?”
