Top-notch Master Masquerading As Cannon Fodder Female Companion Chapter 37

Chapter 37: Tan Mo and Her Sharp Tongue

“Little Uncle, look. There are so many empty tables around, but she doesn’t go there to sit. If she doesn’t want to eat alone, she could seat with other girls. There are empty seats next to them,” Tan Mo elaborated. “However, she didn’t and approached the boy instead. She must be very interested in that boy. Too bad that boy has a girlfriend.”

“How did you know?” Wei Zhiqian asked curiously.

“I saw them. The girl went to get some food. That girl knows that he has a girlfriend, but she still wants to sit there on purpose to spite his girlfriend and pretend to be innocent afterward. How wicked!” Tan Mo shook her head in disdain. “Little Uncle, you should never pay attention to those kinds of girls in the future. Whenever they come over to ask you, ‘Is this seat taken? If not, would you mind me sitting here?’ the that means they’re interested in you. You have to be careful.”

Everyone couldn’t believe what they had just heard.

What was the situation with this six-year-old girl?

Wei Zhiqian didn’t know how to respond to Tan Mo’s remarks.

Coincidentally, as soon as Tan Mo finished speaking, Qin Murong was standing by their table, holding a plate. “Is this seat taken?”

Everyone looked at her.

Tan Mo and her sharp tongue…

“No, it isn’t,” Wei Zhiqian said.

Tan Mo looked at Wei Zhiqian, brows furrowed.

Foolish men couldn’t be taught anything.

Rotten wood couldn’t be carved.

Qin Murong’s face lit up, and she immediately said, “Then I…”

“But you can’t sit with us,” Wei Zhiqian swiftly added.

No one dared to contradict Wei Zhiqian.

He was really wicked.

No, the seat wasn’t taken, but you couldn’t seat with us.

Qin Murong felt she was stabbed in the heart. She sighed and then asked dejectedly, “If it isn’t taken, then why can’t I take it?”

She looked at Qin Mufeng as she spoke.

She wanted her cousin to speak up for her.

Qin Mufeng took a few greens from his plate and placed them on Qin Muye’s plate. “Eat some vegetables, not just meat.”

“There are so many empty seats around, so if you don’t want to eat alone, go find an empty seat with a girl next to it,” Wei Zhiqian answered coldly. “You aren’t familiar with us.”

Goodness, this guy was a fast learner!

Tan Mo reminded Qin Murong kindly, “Sister Murong, I see that Qin Muxiao hasn’t come to the cafeteria. Aren’t you going to bring her here? She might be hungry.”

If you didn’t go find your sister, it wouldn’t be kind at all.

It wouldn’t buy the image you had been portraying.

Tan Mo’s innocent expression annoyed Qin Murong. She wanted to throw her plate at her and tear her face apart.

“Green tea!” Qin Muye commented out of nowhere.

Tan Mo was impressed.

“Your sister is starving, yet you don’t care.” When Wei Zhiqian saw Qin Murong, he lost his appet.i.te. He put down his chopsticks. “You are very unkind.”

Qin Murong was now anxious. “What? I have no idea. I’ll go find her now.”

Qin Murong turned around and left.

What else could she do?

She had to maintain her kind image.

Moreover, she didn’t expect that Tan Mo would also be studying at Jixia Academy.

What’s the situation with that little girl?

Why did she feel like something was wrong?

Shortly after Qin Murong had left, Wei Zhiqian had an appet.i.te again.

“I’ll have you transferred to another cla.s.s,” Wei Zhiqian announced. “Otherwise, Qin Muxiao will trouble you every day.”

“No, I definitely won’t stay in this cla.s.s for long anyway.” Tan Mo didn’t take Qin Muxiao seriously at all.

Qin Muxiao didn’t deserve her attention and energy.

“Why?” Wei Zhiqian frowned. “You want to transfer to another school? If you are bullied, you can fight back. Transferring to escape means yielding.”

Besides, Tan Mo had so many backers. Was she still afraid of Qin Muxiao?

If this were the case, then he would be disappointed.

“No.” Tan Mo shook her head. “Little Uncle, don’t underestimate me. I can take care of myself.”

“How?” Wei Zhiqian raised an eyebrow.

“I think I can get accelerated. If it happens, I won’t have to be in the same cla.s.s as Qin Muxiao,” Tan Mo said confidently.

Wei Zhiqian was taken aback for a moment, but he didn’t discourage her. “Okay, in that case, then you should try to learn all the lessons by yourself. See how far you can learn on your own. If you can really do it, I can tell the school to lobby for you. For the final exam, they will give you the test for the level you can jump to. As long as you pa.s.s the test, you can skip grade levels.”

Tan Mo was serious about getting accelerated.

If she were only talking nonsense and Wei Zhiqian was serious, then Wei Zhiqian would be very disappointed in her.

Qi Chengzhi faked a cough to get their attention and said, “You should at least discuss it with me.”

Jixia Academy still belonged to his family.

He, the future heir of the Qi family, was right in front of him.

Wei Zhiqian sipped his water, sat upright, and asked, “Then, do you agree or not?”

Qi Chengzhi adjusted the gla.s.ses on the bridge of his nose and replied helplessly, “I can agree, but you have to think about it, Tan Mo. It’s not that Jixia Academy hasn’t made exceptions to let students skip grade levels, but they are genius students. If you’re given the examinations for higher-grade levels and you fail, you will definitely have to endure a lot of taunting.”

“Then I will do my best to pa.s.s,” Tan Mo said curtly.

Wei Zhiqian had already thought it through. As long as Tan Mo tried her hardest, the results wouldn’t matter.

If she didn’t pa.s.s the exam, then he would protect her from those people who would dare to mock her.

Wei Zhiqian originally wanted Tan Mo to transfer cla.s.ses.

But since Tan Mo didn’t want to, Wei Zhiqian thought this was okay. Qin Muxiao might even serve as a motivation for Tan Mo.

But when Tan Mo said this, she had no idea what life she would live in the future.

Wei Zhiqian and Qin Mufeng supported Tan Mo.

Several cla.s.smates also saw Tan Mo dining with the heirs of the eight major families.

Therefore, Qin Muxiao could no longer be too domineering.

Their cla.s.smates were still worried about Qin Muxiao’s position as a member of the Qin family. The so-called skinny camel was bigger than a horse.

Even if Qin Mufeing didn’t like her, her family still had direct relations with the Qin clan, so it wasn’t too bad.

Although they wouldn’t openly bully Tan Mo along with Qin Muxiao, they dared not get close to Tan Mo either.

It didn’t matter to Tan Mo because she was more at ease that way, and she had a good relations.h.i.+p with Ming Yeqing.

***

Tan Mo arrived home first after school.

Shortly after, the three brothers also returned.

As soon as they entered the door, before they could even take off their shoes, they chanted, “Mo Mo, we are back!”

“Brothers!” With her short legs, Tan Mo hurried to the door to greet them. “Brothers, you’ve all studied hard at school!”

Tan Wenci found it weird when he heard that.

He, her dad, didn’t work hard?

Xu Mingzhen didn’t really have a hard time today.

The children had all gone to school, and she didn’t need to do housework.

Tan Jinqi said, “Mo Mo, how was school today?”

Tan Jinsheng asked, “Have you been bullied?”

Tan Jinyi chimed in, “Has Qin Muxiao been a.s.signed to the same cla.s.s as you?”
