“Only a couple of days ago,” Old Madam Wei replied with a smile.
“That means they make a perfect match,” Zhu Cailin said with a smile. Of course, she could say nothing else at the moment.
“Yeah, it will bring us even closer to each other,” Xiao Menghan followed.
Seeing this, everybody present knew that Old Mister Wei, Old Madam Wei, and Wei Zhiqian’s parents were all very happy that Wei Zhiqian went out with Tan Mo.
Zhu Cailin praised Wei Zhiqian and Tan Mo for making a good match, and Xiao Menghan praised Ming Yuqian’s son for being handsome. They paid each other a compliment and walked into the hall happily.
Qin Muye had been watching the door, waiting for Tan Mo. The moment Tan Mo stepped in, she caught sight of her and immediately trotted over to her, “Momo!”
Ming Jingshan took the opportunity to pull Ming Yeqing to his side, “Why didn’t you tell us the relationship between Tan Mo and Wei Zhiqian?”
“Does their relationship have anything to do with our family?” Ming Yeqing asked.
Ming Jingshan paused for a moment and then said in a low voice, “At least you should let us know in advance so that we can get psyched up!”
“Why do you need to get psyched up for that? Since they’ve told everyone the truth, the only thing we need to do is bless them.” Ming Yeqing said.
“Why are you helping them hide the truth from us?” Ming Jingshan said, irritated.
“I promised Momo that I wouldn’t tell anyone about it.” Ming Yeqing glanced at Qin Muye and said, “So did Muye. She didn’t tell her family, either.”
Then, Ming Yeqing continued, “Besides, this is a matter between Tan Mo and Wei Zhiqian. Even if it has to be made public, the right to make the final decision belongs to them. The reason why Tan Mo told me her secret is that she trusted me and treated me as her friend. So, I don’t have the right to tell her secret to others. I can’t betray her trust.”
Hearing this, Ming Jingshan said to himself, “But we are family!” Apparently, he was seeing this issue from a different perspective.
“However, as per the current situation, Old Madam Wei is going to announce the relationship between Wei Zhiqian and Momo.” Ming Yeqing said, “Why don’t you take the initiative to introduce the guests to Old Madam Wei and help her start up the conversation.”
Ming Jingshan always trusted his son’s judgment. Originally, he was worried that there would be too many guests and all of them wanted to chat with the Wei family, which would be rather annoying. But now, since Old Madam Wei wanted everyone to know about the relationship between Wei Zhiqian and Tan Mo’s, the more guests present, the better.
“I got it.” Ming Jingshan nodded.
Ming Yeqing didn’t have time to continue talking with Ming Jingshan. He quickly went to look for Qin Muye.
Just when Ming Jingshan stopped talking with Ming Yeqing, standing there alone, someone greeted him immediately. As Ming Jingshan had assumed, this man wanted Ming Jingshan to help introduce him to the Wei family.
Ming Jingshan pretended to be wavering over making the introduction. He hesitated for a while and said, “Alright, you are my guest, and since I’ve invited you here, I have to do your duty as the host here. I will introduce you to them, but the rest is all on you.”
“Yeah, of course,” the man immediately replied. “If you don’t do me a favor, I won’t even have the chance to talk with them.”
“Alright.” Ming Jingshan smiled and took him to the Wei family.
Although the Wei family wasn’t very friendly, they were polite enough. Old Madam Wei introduced Wei Zhiqian and Tan Mo to him and explained that they were in a relationship.
Seeing that someone had successfully started the conversation with the Wei family, the other people mustered up their courage and walked closer to them.
In a short while, the news that Wei Zhiqian had a girlfriend spread over all over the whole hall. Everybody knew that Old Mister Wei and Old Madam Wei had personally admitted that they were in-laws. It seemed that something good was about to happen.
The Chu family and the Qin family all kept silent. The moment they heard what Old Madam Wei said, these two families knew well what she was thinking about and what was going on. In the first place, they were wondering why Old Mister Wei and Old Madam Wei would come here in person today. It turned out that they just wanted to publicize the relationship between Wei Zhiqian and Tan Mo, and at the same time, show off that their eldest grandson had a girlfriend.
Chu Zhaoyang was staying with Qin Mufeng. Seeing the Wei family surrounded by a crowd of people. They did not want to get involved.
Tan Mo wanted to chat with Qin Muye and Ming Yeqing. However, as Wei Zhiqian’s girlfriend, she had to be introduced to all the guests present by Old Madam Wei. She tried to walk away but failed. The only thing she could do was stay beside Wei Zhiqian and be looked at by those guests in surprise.
After all those guests thinned out, Chu Zhaoyang and Qin Mufeng finally had the chance to walk closer to Wei Zhiqian. Tan Mo was embarrassed to stay with Wei Zhiqian when she saw them, so she walked away and went to chat with Qin Muye and Ming Yeqing.
Wei Zhiqian cracked a smile and stayed there to wait for Chu Zhaoyang and Qin Mufeng.
“What’s going on? We haven’t even told us yet, but we have already heard everyone say that Tan Mo is your girlfriend.” Qin Mufeng smiled and took a look at Tan Mo, who was chatting happily with Qin Muye. Then, he turned back and looked at Wei Zhiqian mockingly.
“I still remember that someone once told me that he was not a pervert or bastard, and he would never take advantage of a girl.” Qin Mufeng smiled as he glanced at Wei Zhiqian, “I don’t remember his original words, but that’s what it meant. I do remember the keywords like ‘pervert’ and ‘bastard’ clearly.”
Wei Zhiqian was speechless.
“When?” Chu Zhaoyang raised a blunt question.
However, Wei Zhiqian knew what Chu Zhaoyang was asking from a simple word he said. After all, they had been friends for years. He was asking when he began to chase her.
No sooner had Wei Zhiqian said anything than Qin Mufeng said, “He changed his mind on the day she became an adult. From then on, he didn’t treat her as a child anymore. But at that time, he didn’t admit it. I said he fell in love with her, but he got angry with me.” Qin Mufeng seized a good opportunity to make Wei Zhiqian feel ashamed.
Wei Zhiqian kept silent for a while and then voiced out, “Whatever, I have a girlfriend now.” Wei Zhiqian looked at Qin Mufeng triumphantly. After all, he was no longer single. He had got a girlfriend, the one he loved.
“Mufeng, you’re the only one who is single,” Wei Zhiqian said in a serious voice as he patted Qin Mufeng’s shoulder as if he were an elder.
Qin Mufeng was speechless.
“I didn’t convince myself in the past, but I figured it out later. And then, I have a girlfriend!” Wei Zhiqian felt as if he was a winner. He didn’t care about being laughed at by Qin Mufeng. Anyway, he had achieved his goal, and that’s the most important thing. Qin Mufeng was laughing at him only because he was envious that he was still single.
As the only single man among the three, Qin Mufeng was using a joke to conceal his envy. Wei Zhiqian understood that well.
Qin Mufeng kept silent.
What the hell was Wei Zhiqian talking about?
“You see, Shaoyang is a shy and reticent guy, but he is able to get married,” Wei Zhiqian said to Qin Mufeng.. “Do you have the guts to laugh at me? You are better off thinking about how you’re gonna explain this to your mother when you go back home.”
