Besides, if only Wei Zhiqian posted on WeChat, and she doesn’t, it’ll make it seem like Wei Zhiqian was the one with unrequited love.
She was afraid that Wei Zhiqian would be ridiculed for it.
Although everyone was joking in the 8864 group chat, Tan Mo felt that she couldn’t always let Wei Zhiqian be the joke.
So, Tan Mo asked Wei Zhiqian to send her the photos and posted two images. One was the selfie of her and Wei Zhiqian, and the other was the photo Wei Zhiqian posted on Weibo.
Tan Mo set up her restricted list. Other than Qin Muye and Ming Yeqing, all the other students in the school couldn’t view this post on her WeChat Moments.
But everyone in Tan Mo’s family and those in the 8864 group chat could see it.
It wasn’t that Tan Mo didn’t trust her schoolmates.
She only added those that she felt were decent and she could get along well with on her WeChat.
But these schoolmates won’t know that she wanted to keep it a secret, so it wouldn’t be good if they leaked the news.
Furthermore, Tan Mo felt that it was too troublesome to have to explain to them individually.
So, she decided to set up a restricted list.
Tan Mo took a few deep breaths at the thought of her parents and brothers. Under immense pressure, she tapped on the publish b.u.t.ton.
Tan Mo did not want to go home so soon to face the music, so she hung around in Wei Zhiqian’s car for a while longer.
The two of them revisited the 8864 group chat.
Yan Beicheng had texted: “See? Zhuofeng, you’re still too naive. You completely reminded your brother Qianzi.”
Zhao Gushen: “Qianzi, there’s only a few of us in your WeChat Moments. It’s not like we don’t know. Isn’t it an unnecessary move?”
Wei Zhiqian: “Well I’m happy to do it. You guys had posted yours back then, I want to post about mine too.”
Looking at the conversation in the group chat, Tan Mo’s mood lightened a lot.
“I’m going back,” Tan Mo said to Wei Zhiqian.
Wei Zhiqian did not dare to kiss Tan Mo. It was not good for her to go back with swollen lips.
He could only reach out his hand and played with Tan Mo’s earlobe gently.
Tan Mo’s earlobe had become sensitive because of him. Wei Zhiqian’s touch had made her feel weak all over. Her body slumped into the seat as her eyes softened.
Wei Zhiqian hurriedly withdrew his hand, afraid that he would not be able to hold it in any longer if Tan Mo continued to act like this.
Tan Mo also understood what Wei Zhiqian was thinking. She opened the car door but did not get out.
Fortunately, the weather was cold. The cold air from outside came blowing in and soon overpowered the warmth from the heater in the car.
The chilly temperature made Tan Mo finally return to normal.
Otherwise, given the situation just now, she probably wouldn’t even have the strength to get out of the car .
Wei Zhiqian didn’t dare to touch Tan Mo again.
Tan Mo wasn’t the only one who felt uncomfortable. It wasn’t any better for him either.
Tan Mo got out of the car. Wei Zhiqian also followed suit.
Wei Zhiqian thought: It shouldn’t be a problem if I touched her with the cold wind blowing outside.
Wei Zhiqian went around the car and to Tan Mo and adjusted her coat and scarf.
He really couldn’t bear to let her go home.
His hands lingered on her body, unwilling to let go.
After a while, he restrained himself and retracted his hand. “Go in. I’ll leave after I watch you enter the house.”
“Then remember to look at that window later. I’ll wave to you when I’m inside,” Tan Mo said as she pointed at the floor-to-ceiling window on the first floor that could be seen from their angle.
“Okay.” Wei Zhiqian answered with a smile.
Tan Mo walked a few steps to the front of the courtyard and opened the door. She turned around and waved at Wei Zhiqian before entering the house.
The Tan family’s minds were filled with the engagement discussion with the Wei family tomorrow. They did not have the time to ask why Tan Mo had come back so late.
Besides, was there any difference if they asked?
It was not like they didn’t know what the answer will be.
She was definitely with Wei Zhiqian! So why bother asking?
Because of Wei Zhiqian, they were made to lower their expectations with every pa.s.sing day.
Originally, they wanted Tan Mo to come back earlier.
But somehow, it had already evolved to: As long as Tan Mo came back at night.
The child was in a relations.h.i.+p and could no longer be controlled.
If Xu Mingzhen had to say it, it didn’t matter whether Tan Mo returned home early. After all, it was not as if they couldn’t do things when they were out on a date during the day.
So, it was impossible to guard against it!
Fortunately, Wei Zhiqian was reliable. So even if they really… Wei Zhiqian would also know how to protect Tan Mo.
It was not that Xu Mingzhen was open-minded enough to think in this way, but because this was truly beyond her control, so she could only comfort herself by thinking this way.
She could only convince herself to relax and be open-minded.
Other than that, there was nothing else she could do.
Xu Mingzhen still felt extremely sad every time she thought about it.
Yet she could only keep this sorrow to herself.
Tan Mo changed her shoes and jogged over to the window that she told Wei Zhiqian to look at and waved exaggeratedly at Wei Zhiqian.
Tan Wenci, who was watching from the side, felt extremely sad. “Why do I feel that Momo’s heart isn’t here even though she is physically back home?”
“Wei Zhiqian said that he’s here to join our family, but he’s actually here to destroy our family!” Tan Jinyi said with a face filled with grief and indignation.
Tan Jinyi paused to count before adding, “Wei Zhiqian is just a little seven!”
“…” Xu Mingzhen didn’t get it. “What does little seven mean?”
“The third party who destroys the relations.h.i.+p between two people is called a ‘little three’. Now that Wei Zhiqian has destroyed the relations.h.i.+p between our family of six, he’s a little seven!” Tan Jinyi explained.
Xu Mingzhen: “…”
As expected of an artist, he had great imaginative abilities.
When Wei Zhiqian saw Tan Mo waving to him, he also waved back. Under Tan Mo’s gaze, he went back into the car and drove away.
Tan Wenci suddenly cried out “Aiya!” His voice was so loud that it frightened everyone.
“What’s wrong?” Xu Mingzhen rarely saw Tan Wenci make such a fuss.
Tan Wenci was the president of Tanyue after all. He was usually very calm and collected, regardless of the situation.
But to everyone’s surprise, Tan Wenci kept repeating “Aiya, Aiya, Aiya” nonstop and did not say anything.
He looked like he had been greatly agitated.
Xu Mingzhen didn’t wait for Tan Wenci to say anything and simply went over to see for herself what had left him so shocked.
Xu Mingzhen walked to Tan Wenci’s side and sat down to take a look.
But when she saw what was on the screen, Xu Mingzhen’s face turned pale and her entire body froze.
Even Tan Jinqi couldn’t help but be curious. “What’s going on?”
Seeing that it was impossible to get an answer from Xu Mingzhen, Tan Jinqi walked to the other side of Tan Wenci.
Tan Wenci was sitting at the end of the sofa and Xu Mingzhen was already sitting on his right side.
With no s.p.a.ce left to sit, Tan Jinqi could only stand and bend over to look at Tan Wenci’s phone.
Tan Jinqi was also stunned by what he saw.
“Is this some kind of supernatural phone? Why does everyone have this kind of reaction after looking at the phone?” Tan Jinyi mumbled to himself as he walked behind Tan Wenci.
After looking at Tan Wenci’s phone, Tan Jinyi was also stunned.
Tan Jinyi: “…”
Tan Jinyi was utterly horrified.
