“Momo, when did you become like this!” Xu Mingjing was both angry and shocked, “There was some misunderstanding between us, but your mother and I have already made things clear. This time, we specially came here before the Chinese New Year to deliver some holiday snacks to you. How… how could you treat me this way?”
“I clearly remember that you were very sensible and obedient in the past. You were also polite to others…”
Before Xu Mingjing could finish, Wei Zhiqian sneered, “Are you trying to say I was a bad influence on Momo?”
Xu Mingjing was stunned and shook her head hurriedly.
How could she dare to speak ill of Wei Zhiqian?
Moreover, she didn’t mean it in the first place.
“Momo, Zhiqian.” Xu Mingzhen spoke.
Then, Xu Mingzhen and Tan Wenci came out together with the Tan brothers behind them.
“Dad, Mom, why are you guys out?” Tan Mo was still in Wei Zhiqian’s arms. She didn’t get up just because her parents and brothers came out.
Anyway, they were in a relationship now, so it was no big deal for them to embrace each other!
“I saw Zhiqian’s car parked outside from the window, but I couldn’t see you guys come in, so I came out to see what was going on,” said Tan Wenci.
At first, he was worried that Wei Zhiqian would do something naughty in the car with Tan Mo.
In the end, he saw Xu Mingjing and Yuan Keqing also appearing at the door.
From the living room window, they could only see Xu Mingjing and Yuan Keqing, but not Wei Zhiqian and Tan Mo.
However, they saw Xu Mingjing and Yuan Keqing talking to someone standing at the blind spot.
They reckoned Wei Zhiqian and Tan Mo were probably standing at the blind spot.
They didn’t want Xu Mingjing and Yuan Keqing to pester them, so the family quickly came out.
Tan Wenci did not bother explaining in detail. He had made up his mind to ignore Xu Mingjing and Yuan Keqing and pretend that they didn’t exist.
He didn’t include them in the conversation, even if they genuinely came out because they were afraid they would pester Wei Zhiqian and Tan Mo.
Judging from their thick skin, they would definitely take the opportunity to make conversation with them if they made any small talk to speak of.
Then again, even if they did not speak to them, the two of them would still shamelessly try to butt into the conversation.
However, Tan Wenci still wanted to ignore them and pretend that they did not exist.
“Sister, Wenci.” Sure enough, even though they had taken the initiative to ignore them, Xu Mingjing still spoke up as if she couldn’t detect Tan Wenci’s disregard for them.
“You guys came out just in time. Did you know Momo is dating Young Master Wei…”
“We do.” Xu Mingzhen coldly interrupted Xu Mingjing’s words.
Xu Mingjing’s eyes widened. “What? You… you guys know?”
“Otherwise, why would we hug each other at my door?” Tan Mo poked her head out from Wei Zhiqian’s arms.
Tan Wenci went speechless.
How could Tan Mo have the nerve to say that?
Tan Wenci contemplated. No wonder Wei Zhiqian and Tan Mo did not enter the house even after Wei Zhiqian’s car had pulled up outside the door for some time.
Indeed, the two of them didn’t do anything bad in the car, but they were embracing each other at the entrance of their house!
Tan Wenci was angry in his heart, but in front of Xu Mingjing and Yuan Keqing, he still had to give face to Wei Zhiqian.
Otherwise, Xu Mingjing and Yuan Keqing would really think that he did not approve of Wei Zhiqian and Tan Mo dating.
Actually… actually, he had already approved in his heart.
However, the moment he saw Wei Zhiqian and Tan Mo getting close, as her father, he couldn’t help griping about Wei Zhiqian.
He believed that if Wei Zhiqian had a daughter in the future, Wei Zhiqian would definitely be the same as him!
“But he’s her…”
Before Xu Mingjing could finish, Xu Mingzhen said coldly, “The children have the support and blessing of the Wei family and us to date!”
“Even though Momo used to call Zhiqian her uncle, it was just a nickname that the two children used to call each other for fun because they were young.” Xu Mingzhen spoke decisively before Xu Mingjing could open her mouth.
She didn’t want Xu Mingjing to kick a fuss because of this.
It would sound as though Momo shouldn’t be in a relationship with Wei Zhiqian.
If people found out, they might misunderstand.
“In the past, Momo called Zhiqian her uncle because she was fooling around. In reality, the Wei family is too good for us. How could we have the cheek to claim we are related to the Wei family?” Xu Mingzhen added.
Yuan Keqing’s expression looked incredibly shocked the moment she heard this.
“Since your family approves, then it’s indeed a misunderstanding.” Yuan Keqing secretly tugged at Xu Mingzhen’s clothes and then said, “We’re here to give you some holiday snacks.”
“Yeah.” Xu Mingjing caught her drift and quickly said, “Sister, let’s go in first. It’s so cold outside.”
She looked at the lights coming out of the villa through the window and said, “You guys haven’t had dinner yet, right?”
At this time, they definitely hadn’t eaten.
Moreover, Wei Zhiqian and Tan Mo had just arrived.
If they came back at this time, how could the Tan family not wait for them to eat dinner?
“It just so happens that we haven’t eaten.” Xu Mingjing said with a smile, “Why don’t we eat together? I also have a few specialty dishes. Speaking of which, sister, you haven’t eaten my cooking for a long time. Why don’t I whip up a couple more dishes tonight?”
Xu Mingjing didn’t treat herself as an outsider at all. She held Yuan Keqing’s hand and was about to enter the door of the Tan residence as she spoke.
This was Xu Mingzhen’s younger sister, so Tan Wenci was not in the position to object.
Tan Jinqi and the other two brothers all looked at Xu Mingzhen.
Obviously, they didn’t want Xu Mingjing to enter the door.
“Mingjing,” Xu Mingzhen called out.
She stood firmly in front of the entrance of the courtyard.
If she didn’t move aside, Xu Mingjing really wouldn’t be able to enter.
A bad feeling arose in Xu Mingjing’s heart. “Sister?”
“There are some things I should have explained to you a long time ago,” Xu Mingzhen said in a deep voice.
The ominous feeling in Xu Mingjing’s heart grew stronger.
She forced a smile and said, “What do you want to say? Let’s talk inside first.”
“You can forget about entering the house,” Xu Mingzhen said coldly. “From now on, our families should just cut ties.”
“As for your gifts, just consider me a bad sister for rejecting them,” Xu Mingzhen said in a deep voice. “You can take these Chinese New Year gifts back.”
Xu Mingjing and Yuan Keqing were empty-handed. The Chinese New Year gifts they were talking about were probably still in the trunk of the car.
“Sister, what do you mean? Don’t you care about your little sister anymore? Don’t you want to stay in contact with me anymore?” asked Xu Mingjing as her face turned pale.
“Yes.” Xu Mingzhen nodded.
She didn’t even want to explain. Xu Mingjing could think of her as a bad person however she wanted.
She simply wanted Xu Mingjing and Yuan Keqing to stop harassing her family.
“Sister, why? Did I do anything wrong? Did I make you angry?” Xu Mingjing was angry in her heart.
Yuan Keqing secretly glanced at Wei Zhiqian before saying pitifully, “Auntie, is it because of me? But, I haven’t seen Momo for a long time, and I haven’t done anything to make her angry..”
