Tan Wenci waved his hand. “That’s not important. We’re talking about your blind dates.”
Wei Zhiqian:”…”
He had been forced into a corner by Tan Wenci. Moreover, he and Tan Mo had come to a mutual understanding that they had better seize all opportunities available to drop hints about their relationship for Tan Wenci and Xu Mingzhen.
Therefore, Wei Zhiqian simply took the opportunity to say, “I do have someone I like.”
As Wei Zhiqian said this, he looked to the backseat again through the rearview mirror.
Tan Mo was looking out of the window, and her face was just outside the scope of the rearview mirror, thus Wei Zhiqian couldn’t see her reaction.
Just where Wei Zhiqian’s blind spot was, Tan Mo’s little face was red, and the corners of her mouth couldn’t help but rise.
The person that her uncle liked was her.
Tan Mo’s heart was filled with a secret joy and delight.
“Oh?” Tan Wenci and Xu Mingzhen were instantly energized. Their attention was all focused on Wei Zhiqian, thus they did not notice Tan Mo’s reaction.
“Since you have someone you like, go on and pursue her. Don’t keep coming to look for Momo,” Tan Wenci hurriedly said. “If you have time, why don’t you spend more time with the girl you like?”
Wei Zhiqian looked in the rearview mirror again.
The little lady had finally turned her face back a little so that he could at least see a small part of her face through the rearview mirror.
Wei Zhiqian could see her slightly blushing face and one of her eyes that was looking at him in a lively and crafty way.
Wei Zhiqian smiled and heard Tan Wenci ask, “Does that girl like you?”
Wei Zhiqian looked in the rearview mirror again and did not say anything.
Following this, no matter how much Tan Wenci pestered him, he remained silent.
If he said that yes, Tan Wenci would definitely tell him to hurry up getting together with the girl and stop coming to look for Tan Mo.
But the problem was that he was in a relationship with Tan Mo. .
Seeing that he could not get anything out of him, Tan Wenci finally quieted down.
He was pondering over Wei Zhiqian’s reactions. If Wei Zhiqian was remaining silent, it must be because the girl he liked did not like him.
Otherwise, how could Wei Zhiqian not say anything?
The more Tan Wenci thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case, so he said, “The girl doesn’t like you, right? This can’t do! Since you like her, you have to pursue her with all your heart. Although you have many shortcomings, what if the girl is blind… No, she’s moved? You don’t seem to be in a hurry either. Let me tell you, if you don’t pursue her properly, you deserve the cold treatment.”
Wei Zhiqian nodded and said, “What you said makes sense. I’ll definitely spend more time with her.”
Tan Wenci nodded in satisfaction. “That’s right.”
With this, Wei Zhiqian wouldn’t have much time to snatch Tan Mo away from them.
Tan Mo: “…”
The car arrived at the gates of Beijing University. Since Wei Zhiqian still had to send Tan Wenci and Xu Mingzhen back, he could watch as Tan Mo got out of the car and went back to her dorm by herself.
After Tan Mo left, Wei Zhiqian sent Tan Wenci and Xu Mingzhen back to the Tan family.
Then, he went back to the university.
After going through the trouble of traveling back and forth like this, he finally arrived at Beijing University again.
When Tan Mo received Wei Zhiqian’s call, she was in her dorm.
“I’m downstairs,” Wei Zhiqian said over the phone.
Tan Mo held her phone and went to the balcony. As expected, she saw Wei Zhiqian standing downstairs.
“Uncle, why are you back?”
“How can I not come back? There’s still a lot of time, isn’t it just natural that I have to come back to find you?” Wei Zhiqian said with a smile. “You can’t have thought that I wouldn’t come back after sending my in-laws home, right?”
Tan Mo’s face was red and her ears were burning.
She noticed that there were people coming and going around Wei Zhiqian.
Wasn’t he afraid of being heard by others?
“Are you coming down?” Wei Zhiqian asked Tan Mo.
He was already here, how could she not go down?
“I’ll go down now,” Tan Mo said and hurried down without hanging up the phone.
Even though it only took a short time to go downstairs, she couldn’t bear to hang up the phone so that she could talk to Wei Zhiqian all the time.
Meng Yuxi and Jin Yuelin were used to Tan Mo leaving right after she had just returned.
Tan Mo left the dormitory in a hurry. She only hung up the phone when she came to the front of Wei Zhiqian.
After the incident with Lin Fuxi last time, the students around dared not gossip when they saw Tan Mo and Wei Zhiqian together. They did not even dare to have any speculations.
After the two of them left, many were still whispering, “Isn’t Tan Mo and Wei Zhiqian’s relationship too good?”
“I’ve never seen any biological uncles and nieces have such a good relationship.”
The university did not allow cars from outside to enter, so Tan Mo followed Wei Zhiqian back to the school gates.
Along the way, it was inevitable that many people would see them.
Especially for the upperclassmen who were doing their graduate studies. They realized that the number of times they were seeing Wei Zhiqian on campus was way more than when he had not graduated from Beijing University.
Tan Mo followed Wei Zhiqian to the car. “Where are we going?”
“We’re going home. It would be inconvenient to wander around anyway,” When Wei Zhiqian said that they were going home, he meant the house he had in the neighborhood next to the university.
The two of them had been living there recently, and it was like their small home now.
So when they mentioned the house in the neighborhood next to the university, they habitually said that they were going home.
When Tan Mo saw Wei Zhiqian, she remembered that she still had a score to settle with him.
When the two of them returned home, only then did Tan Mo pout in jealousy and start to settle the score with Wei Zhiqian. “I had forgotten about this earlier.”
Wei Zhiqian was puzzled. What was she talking about?
Previously in the car, when Tan Wenci had mentioned the blind dates, Wei Zhiqian had felt a chill down his spine.
But later, Tan Mo didn’t seem to be angry anymore, so Wei Zhiqian simply put it behind his mind.
Now that Tan Mo suddenly said something like this, Wei Zhiqian didn’t even list it as a possibility.
When Tan Mo saw that Wei Zhiqian had forgotten about it, she immediately became even more depressed. “Didn’t you say before that you realized you liked me romantically when I came of age?”
Wei Zhiqian nodded.
“Well, why did you go on blind dates if you had already realized that you had feelings for me?!” Tan Mo was considering the possibility that if Wei Zhiqian did find someone he was happy with during the blind dates, wouldn’t he be with another woman then? How would their relationship be then?
Yet, Wei Zhiqian still said that he liked her?
The little snow fairy was originally just jealous, but now that she considered the possibilities and consequences, she was furious.
Wei Zhiqian chuckled. It was rare to see Tan Mo so angry.
“How can you be laughing?!” Tan Mo became even angrier.
Wei Zhiqian pulled Tan Mo over.
Tan Mo struggled a few times. Although she was quite powerful, she couldn’t use too much force on Wei Zhiqian.
In the end, she could only let herself be pulled into Wei Zhiqian’s arms.
“It was precisely because I discovered my feelings for you that I was scared out of my wits. I felt like a pervert. How could I have such feelings for you? That was why I thought of going on blind dates. I thought that if I succeeded, I would be able to suppress my feelings for you,” Wei Zhiqian sighed, “However, the more I did so, the more I missed you. Then you got angry, thinking that I didn’t tell you about my blind dates because I didn’t believe you and was afraid that you would cause trouble. It’s not like I could’ve told you about my feelings directly, so I thought I’d just stop since the blind dates were useless anyway, and it even made you sad.. Compared to you being sad, I’d rather bear with it myself.”
