Chapter 293 - Owe a Couple of Billion

“Mo Mo would definitely have been able to get what she has now, but it wouldn’t have been as smooth if Yuan Keqing had gotten what she wanted. Mo Mo would have had to waste a lot of time,” Tan Jinqi said as he glanced at his mother. “It’s a good thing that Keqing failed to stop Mo Mo’s success, but if she had harmed Mo Mo, who should we have blamed?”

“He’s right! She should be thankful that we didn’t bother her when she took her exams. We didn’t do to her as she had done to Mo Mo. Why should we even care how she did in her exams?” Tan Jinsheng scoffed. “Dream on!”

“Kids, I was just asking. You guys don’t need to get so worked up about it.” Xu Mingzhen sighed. “It’s not like I really care if she did well or not. I’m just curious about what score she got. Do you really think I would forget about what she did to Mo Mo during her high school leaving exams?”

All Xu Mingzhen wanted to know was whether Yuan Keqing got a low score. If she did, then Xu Mingzhen could celebrate a little.

Xu Mingzhen knew about Yuan Keqing’s abilities and was sure that the high schooler would not be able to get a high score.

As long as Yuan Keqing got a bad score, Xu Mingzhen would be happy. It was her way of paying her back for trying to sabotage Tan Mo’s exams a few years ago.

However, as a mother, there was no way she could admit that to her children as it would set a bad example for them.

She also wanted to remain the kind and gentle mother that her children were accustomed to.

Who knew that her children were going to completely misunderstood her intentions? She scolded them. “Seriously, how can you not trust your own mother? Naturally, Tan Mo comes first.”

Tan Jinqi’s scary expression lightened up immediately as if a rain cloud had just gone away and the sun had appeared once again.

“It’s not that we don’t trust you, Mom,” the oldest brother said. “It’s just that we are worried that you might get softhearted because it’s your sister and niece we’re talking about.”

“He’s right. You know how your heart softens easily when others plead to you for help. You’re a kind person, and it’s because of that kindness that we were worried,” Tan Jinsheng piped up, complimenting his mother as much as he could.

Seeing her youngest son was about to say something as well, Xu Mingzhen quickly stopped him and said, “All right, all right. Stop with the compliments. Do you brats really think I’m so stupid? All you have to remember is that no matter what, there’s no way I would ever put Yuan Keqing in front of our own Tan Mo.”

In the midst of their conversation, the doorbell rang.

It only took a few seconds for Auntie Guo to announce, “Sir, Ma’am, Mr. Yuan, his wife, and his daughter are here.”

“Keqing just finished her exams today, and the scores aren’t even out yet. What are they doing here?” Tan Wenci asked curiously.

“Right? Don’t tell me Yuan Keqing felt as if she had done well in the exams and has come to boast about it?” Tan Jinsheng asked, turning to look at Tan Jinqi.

“Isn’t it a little too early to feel confident?” Tan Jinyi sighed as he looked at his oldest brother as well.

“What the heck? I mean, even if she did well, there’s no way she can get a full score, right? If she can’t do that, what’s there to boast about in front of Mo Mo?” Tan Wenci scratched the top of his head. “Is she dumb or what?”

“Now that we are on this topic, I don’t think we can find a lot of people who can actually boast about themselves in front of Mo Mo, can we?” Tan Jinqi scoffed. “We all know Yuan Keqing is definitely not that smart.”

“Still, it’s weird for the whole Yuan family to be here,” Tan Wenci said.

Ever since Yuan Zhengwen had been kicked out of TanYue, he would rarely visit the Tan family.

Tan Wenci could still remember that the last time Yuan Zhengwen was at his home, the latter was there to boast about his successful business and that his family had gotten rich.

Tan Wenci only gave a brief congratulations to Yuan Zhengwen and treated the situation as if he were watching an idiot in a comedy.

“Let them in. Let’s see why they are here,” Xu Mingzhen said to Auntie Guo.

“Right away, Ma’am.” Auntie Guo nodded and went to open the door.

Since the Tan family was still having their dinner, Tan Wenci was worried that Tan Mo might get hungry if they had to wait for the guests to leave and said, “Kids, let us handle this. You guys shouldn’t wait for them to leave with empty stomachs.”

Xu Mingzhen almost let out a laugh.

She could still remember that when her children were still little, Tan Wenci would show the Yuan family some respect despite him not liking Yuan Keqing from the beginning. He’d never showed his disgust toward Yuan Keqing before.

However, everything changed after the incident with Yuan Zhengwen and after Tan Wenci realized that Yuan Keqing was trying to sabotage Tan Mo’s future all the time.

Ever since the relationship between the two families had turned sour, Tan Wenci had stopped putting on an act and would show his disgust every time they were present.

“Then I should hurry up and finish my food,” Tan Mo said as she put a big spoonful of rice into her mouth.

“Slow down! You’ll get sick if you eat that fast. There’s no need to hurry,” Xu Mingzhen quickly stopped her daughter.

Tan Mo had always been a slow eater ever since she was a baby, so it was a first for the Tan family to see Tan Mo trying to swallow as fast as she could.

“I’m scared that I’ll lose my appetite once they’re in here,” Tan Mo said, taking a huge sip of the soup.

Hearing that, Xu Mingzhen quickly made up her mind to chase Xu Mingjing and Yuan Keqing out of her home. She didn’t want them to spoil her daughter’s appetite.

The mother knew her daughter very well.

Other than her family, the most important person to Tan Mo was none other than Wei Zhiqian.

When Yuan Keqing used Wei Zhiqian to sabotage Tan Mo’s exams, Tan Mo wasn’t angry at her cousin for trying to make sure she couldn’t do well in the exam but was angry at the fact that Yuan Keqing had used Wei Zhiqian to do so.

Tan Wenci jumped out of his chair and said, “I’ll go chase them away. They are not allowed to step foot in this house.”

He wasn’t going to let anyone ruin his daughter’s appetite either.

“Wait! We shouldn’t do that.” Tan Mo quickly put her spoon down and stopped her parents. “I’m actually curious as to why they are here.”

Was Yuan Keqing looking forward to getting humiliated again? Even Uncle Yuan is here this time.

Tan Mo could tell that they had come to her home for something serious.

“Mo Mo’s right,” Tan Jinqi agreed. “If we don’t let them in tonight, they’ll be here tomorrow night too.”

With how shameless the Yuan family was, Tan Jinqi was sure that they wouldn’t stop until they got what they wanted.

Seeing the two smartest people in the family agree to let the Yuan family in, Tan Wenci had no choice but to do so.

It didn’t take more than one minute for them to hear someone walking in through their door.

Even if they hated it, Xu Mingzhen and Tan Wenci were still the owners of the house and had to greet their guests at the door.

As soon as Yuan Zhengwen, Xu Mingjing, and Yuan Keqing walked into the house, they could smell the aroma of a freshly cooked meal from the dining room.

However, no matter how good the food smelled, they had no appetite.

Xu Mingzhen noticed that Xu Mingjing and Yuan Keqing were completely pale as if they had just gotten bullied, while Yuan Zhengwen was completely furious.

It was as if the Tan family owed them a couple of billion dollars.

Xu Mingzhen and Tan Wenci looked at each other curiously.

“Mingjing, Keqing,” Xu Mingzhen greeted them, completely ignoring Yuan Zhengwen.
