Top-notch Master Masquerading As Cannon Fodder Female Companion Chapter 186

Chapter 186 - What a Con Man

“Uncle, carry me.” Tan Mo raised her head and opened her arms toward Wei Zhiqian, just as she had always done when she was little.

When she was a little girl, she would often extend her arms for Wei Zhiqian to carry her.

Tan Mo was now sitting while he was standing.

As the man looked at her from this higher angle, it was as if they’d gone back to when they were children.

Wei Zhiqian couldn’t help but smile warmly at her because this reminded him of how she would ask him to carry her when they were young.

The rest of the team sighed to themselves.

Didn’t you just say you were going to educate her? Like h*ll!

Wei Zhiqian leaned forward and lifted Tan Mo off the chair. Then he turned to everyone else, “We will take our leave now.”

Everyone waved good-bye as they walked out the door.

It had been a long time since Wei Zhiqian had carried Tan Mo.

Ever since she’d started to grow taller after she was about nine years old, she’d been embarrassed to ask Wei Zhiqian to carry her anymore.

But since she was drunk now, all her embarrassment had been thrown out the window.

She rubbed her head against his chest. It was a feeling that she’d missed and longed for.

Wei Zhiqian couldn’t help but smile when he saw her reaction.

He carried Tan Mo back to his car to drive her home.

Seeing the state she was in, there was no way he was taking her back to the dormitory.

He put Tan Mo down in the passenger seat. She turned on her side and started to fall asleep.

“Weren’t you wide awake just seconds ago?” Wei Zhiqian laughed. “Come on, put on your seatbelt.”

Tan Mo reacted more slowly than she usually did. It took her a few seconds to turn around to grab the seatbelt.

However, then she missed the seatbelt and grabbed at the air instead. She tried again and again. She finally found it.

After putting her seatbelt on, she closed her eyes once again.

“Don’t you dare drink again,” Wei Zhiqian warned her. “Not a drop, you hear me?”

He was still surprised that Tan Mo could get this drunk with just half a glass of beer mixed with sour plum juice.

He wasn’t sure if she had heard him or not. She was now lying on her side on the passenger seat. She was looking at him as she tried her best to keep her eyes open. It made her look both obedient and innocent at the same time.

SIGH. I guess I will talk to her once she sobers up…

Wei Zhiqian started the engine and drove toward the Tan Mansion.

On the way there, Tan Mo suddenly said, “Uncle, I’m not drunk…”

Wei Zhiqian turned to glance at her. Are you kidding me? Look at you, and you’re learning how to speak like a drunk adult now…

He checked his watch and realized that 15 minutes had already passed since he’d warned her not to drink alcohol anymore. It had taken her a quarter of an hour to respond to him. Her reaction was way slower than usual.

“Do you think I’m lying?” Tan Mo asked again.

Wei Zhiqian turned to look at her again.

This brat had always been like this. She could never stop talking.

However, Wei Zhiqian did not find Tan Mo’s talkativeness annoying. The only thing that surprised him was that she was still talkative even when she was drunk.

“Let me tell you a secret. I’m a little snow fairy who has cultivated for 1,000 years.” Tan Mo nodded, but then quickly shook her head the next second. “Wait, no, not 1,000 years. It’s 999 years and 364 days. What a waste.”

Wei Zhiqian was completely speechless now. Why is she talking nonsense now?

“Did you read some fiction or watch some fantasy drama recently?” Wei Zhiqian asked.

“I am serious!” Tan Mo mimicked a sword with her fingers and waved it around. “Let me show you how I can force the alcohol out of my body!”

Wei Zhiqian was even more speechless now. It looked like she had been watching a lot of martial arts dramas… Look at her!

Tan Mo kept waving her arms around, trying to remove the alcohol from her body. Yet, no matter how much she waved them around, nothing worked.

She slumped back into her seat and whispered, “Looks like my power hasn’t returned yet.”

Never had Wei Zhiqian thought that Tan Mo would have such a side to her.

Just as Xu Mingzhen was pondering whether she should call Tan Mo and ask if she was coming back for the weekend and whether she needed her to pick her up at school.

It was then that the doorbell rang.

After checking the camera, Auntie Guo reported, “Young Master Wei is carrying Momo at the door.”

“Carrying?” Father Tan, Tan Jinsheng, and Tan Jinyi all jumped off the couch and rushed to the door.

“Why is he carrying Momo? Did she get hurt or something?” Tan Jinsheng asked nervously, since it had been years since Tan Mo last let Wei Zhiqian carry her.

She wouldn’t even let her brothers carry her anymore.

“Big bro will be devastated if that happens.” Tan Jinyi said as he ran toward the door.

Tan Jinqi was still on set. If he were to find out that Tan Mo had been hurt, he would definitely rush back home.

However, when they opened the door, they did see Wei Zhiqian carrying Tan Mo, but she didn’t look like she was hurt.

She even smiled at her family with a silly expression. “Brothers! Daddy! Mommy!”

“What happened to her?” Xu Mingzhen looked at Wei Zhiqian with a puzzled expression.

“She went to celebrate with her seniors for winning the competition,” Wei Zhiqian explained as he entered the mansion. “She snuck herself half a glass of beer when they weren’t paying attention and got drunk.”

The whole Tan family couldn’t believe what they had just heard.

Although it was wrong for a 15-year-old girl to consume alcohol, getting drunk after half a glass of beer was embarrassing.

“Let me carry her,” Tan Jinsheng said as he opened his arms to carry his sister.

It had been years since he’d last done that, and he wanted to make use of the chance since she was drunk.

“No! I want uncle to carry me!” Tan Mo pouted and tightened her arms around Wei Zhiqian.

Others could instantly hear Tan Jinsheng’s heart being shattered.

Wei Zhiqian let out a cough with a huge grin on his face. “Looks like Momo prefers me to carry her.”

He knew the way around the mansion and walked up the stairs toward Tan Mo’s room.

Tan Jinsheng and Tan Jinyi followed closely behind him. The former even clicked his tongue as they ascended the stairs.

Wei Zhiqian! What a con man…

Tan Jinsheng could tell that Wei Zhiqian had grinned at him purposely. There was no way Wei Zhiqian couldn’t control his own expression if he was trying to take over his family business. It was clear that he had done it to show them that Tan Mo liked him more than her brothers.

They still remembered that when Tan Mo learned how to write from Wei Zhiqian, the first thing she wrote was his name. The whole Tan family was furious when they saw that, especially Tan Wenci, who kept cursing at Wei Zhiqian all around the mansion.

The first name his daughter learned to write wasn’t her own, nor her parents or brothers, but Wei Zhiqian’s.

It was clear that Wei Zhiqian had been trying to challenge them, just as he was doing now.

Wei Zhiqian decided to ignore the angry Tan family who were following behind him and opened the door to Tan Mo’s room.

As he set Tan Mo down on the bed, Tan Jinsheng quickly moved forward and helped remove her shoes. He wasn’t going to lose out to an outsider.

“All right. All of you, out!” Xu Mingzhen chased everyone out, including Wei Zhiqian. “I’ll take care of her. You guys stay out of this.”
