Chapter 140: Childhood Sweethearts

“If this were the case, why should he have wasted time on you? Since everything you’ve done is about self-interest, he shouldn’t forgive you for the mistake you made. You just failed the assessment and were eliminated.” Tan Mo smiled contemptuously.

She had wasted too much time talking to such a stupid person for so long today and had even answered his questions.

She was too kind.

Tan Mo was too altruistic.

Other people wouldn’t necessarily have been as kind as she had been.

Hao Lunxing: “…”

He was unable to refute what Tan Mo had said.

He couldn’t say a single word in rebuttal.

“It seems that Brother Hao has nothing more to say, so I’m going to leave.” Tan Mo nodded toward Hao Lunxing and said, “In the future, don’t come to talk to me anymore.”

She and Ming Yeqing turned and walked a few steps forward.

But Tan Mo was not quite finished.

She stopped, turned around, and said to Hao Lunxing, “Actually you are a good match for Qin Murong.”

They were both scumbags.

“You should try to actually pursue her instead of just watching from the sidelines.” After Tan Mo had finished speaking, she left and didn’t look back.

After they had gone a little farther, Ming Yeqing couldn’t help but smile and say, “Is Qin Murong a garbage-recycling station? Why do you throw all the fools and idiots at her?”

When Ming Yeqing said that, suddenly Tan Mo discovered that it seemed to be true.

“Ugh, so far, I haven’t found a trash can bigger than Qin Murong.” Tan Mo thought about it for a while.

Yuan Keqing could also be counted as one, but she wasn’t as big a one as Qin Murong.

Tan Mo’s pace suddenly slowed down.

It was because Wei Zhiqian was standing in front of her.

He stood out in the crowd.

Everyone else was walking in the direction of the doorway, only he, as if he were a statue, was standing there motionless.

He was looking at Tan Mo with a warm smile.

“Little Uncle!” Tan Mo was pleasantly surprised.

On her first day of coming to Beijing University, Wei Zhiqian had come to see her.

On this day when the military training had ended, Wei Zhiqian had come again..

As soon as she saw him, Tan Mo forgot that Ming Yeqing was with her and made a beeline for Wei Zhiqian.

Wei Zhiqian opened his arms and was ready for Tan Mo to pounce on him.

Tan Mo took off and was about to pounce, but then she stopped abruptly and took a step back instead.

Wei Zhiqian: “…”

What was going on?

“What are you doing?” Wei Zhiqian silently pulled Tan Mo back toward him.

“I’m older now,” Tan Mo said. “I’m 15 years old, so I can’t cling to you like I did when I was a kid.”

Wei Zhiqian looked at Tan Mo. There were lots of people around.

After all, he has no blood relationship with Tan Mo, and Tan Mo is still a little girl, so some nasty rumors and gossip were unavoidable.

Wei Zhiqian looked at Tan Mo with a weird look.

Who made you grow up so quickly? Wouldn’t it be good for you to just stay a little kid?

Tan Mo: “…”

What did the expression in Wei Zhiqian’s eyes mean?

HUMPH!

Even a little snow fairy has a temper.

Deciding to ignore Wei Zhiqian, Tan Mo turned around and left.

“Wait a moment!” Wei Zhiqian stopped her and dragged her over to the school gates. “Where are you going?”

“Didn’t Little Uncle look at me with disdain just now?” How could she not leave? “I’m very sensitive.”

Wei Zhiqian felt helpless.

Who said that this girl was well-behaved and cute?

Those who’ve said this have never seen this girl throwing a tantrum before.

The older she gets, the bigger her temper gets.

This wasn’t the first time that she had thrown a tantrum in front of him.

But what could Wei Zhiqian do?

Continue to pamper her of course.

“It’s not you that I disdain.” Wei Zhiqian lied through his teeth. “I was despising other people. You grew up too fast. If you were still a child, would you still need to care so much about what people thought of us?”

When she was a child, she could be held by him without any thought.

She could stay in his arms all day long without touching the ground. How nice would that be?

How can Wei Zhiqian’s words deceive Tan Mo?

With her intelligence, she can discern the truth in an instant.

Him not despising her wasn’t a lie.

He wasn’t despising her, but he despised how she had grown up too fast.

“To stay in childhood without growing, wouldn’t I have to be a fairy?” Tan Mo complained.

Ming Yeqing stayed two to three steps away from them.

It was best not to let Wei Zhiqian notice him, otherwise he would diss him again.

How could Wei Zhiqian not see Ming Yeqing?

Seeing him, but noticing that he had been very sensible, Wei Zhiqian decided not to diss him so severely this time.

He had walked outside with Tan Mo. He had heard all the things Tan Mo had said to Hao Lunxing.

Tan Mo had been right.

Hao Lunxing indeed wasn’t satisfactory.

He can’t even compare to a 15-year-old girl.

Although this 15-year-old girl wasn’t any ordinary girl.

From what Ming Yeqing had said just now, it seemed that Wei Keli had been pushed toward Qin Murong by things Tan Mo had said.

This little girl had really killed three birds in one fell swoop.

Wei Keli had befriended Qin Murong out of stupidity.

He really was beyond help.

Wei Zhiqian couldn’t be bothered to even care about him.

Ming Yeqing, taking the initiative to act like an invisible person, walked toward the school gates.

Everyone in the Tan family was waiting there.

Qin Muye was there as well.

“Muye!” Tan Mo immediately left Wei Zhiqian behind and ran toward the gates.

Wei Zhiqian: “…”

At this moment, he suddenly felt as if Tan Mo was burning her bridges.

Ming Yeqing didn’t care about Wei Zhiqian anymore, and he ran toward Qin Muye as well.

The three friends gathered at the school gates.

Although the Tan family missed Tan Mo very much, they didn’t interrupt them at this moment.

They let the three young children have some time to themselves.

After Tan Mo got home, they would have more time to be with her anyway.

“Muye, why are you here too?” Tan Mo was extremely happy.

Although the three of them chatted in the group chat every day, meeting in person still made her happier.

“Your military training is over today, so how could I not come?” Qin Muye saw Ming Yeqing and said, “Yeqing, why are you so tan?”

Ming Yeqing touched his face. Was he really that tan?

Tan Mo and Qin Muye had said the same thing.

“Is there a mirror? Let me see?” Was he that tan?

“Uncle Zhang is here too,” Qin Muye added.

Uncle Zhang, Ming Yeqing’s driver, stood not far away in an inconspicuous manner.

“You can look in the mirror after you get in the car later.” There were so many mirrors in the car.

“Do I look better with fair skin or tan skin?” Ming Yeqing asked while touching his face.

Tan Mo stared at Ming Yeqing for a long time.

She didn’t know that Wei Zhiqian had walked up close behind her.

Wei Zhiqian didn’t disturb the three of them.

Three good friends were chatting together, and he wasn’t so insensitive to disturb them.

But then, he saw Tan Mo staring at Ming Yeqing, as if there was something on his face.

Wei Zhiqian couldn’t help looking at Ming Yeqing.

He was indeed handsome, striking, and also smart. Like Tan Mo, he was highly intelligent.

Besides, he was the same age as Tan Mo, and they had entered Beijing University together.

At Jixia Academy, he had been classmates with Tan Mo ever since the first grade of elementary school.

He and Tan Mo were veritable childhood sweethearts.
