Chapter 545: Have an Altercation With Him Before Pursuing Him

“It’s okay if you’re willing to trade him off for someone else. But if you’re unwilling to give him up, you must think of a way to secure him against other women. Otherwise, he’ll still look for girls who benefit him even without me.

“Of course, I have no interest in him. He’s not my type. You heard what I said to him in the recording. I suppose you should believe my words by now that I have no feelings for him at all,” Tan Mo explained.

“Seeing that things aren’t looking too bright on my side, he’ll definitely scout out convenient women for himself. But no matter who he looks for, you’ll never be in his cards.”

The truth Tan Mo uttered was totally unpleasant to Yuan Keqing’s ears.

“Nonsense!” Yuan Keqing was unwilling to admit her cousin’s words.

Tan Mo let out a snicker and asked a rhetorical question. “Tell me, then, did he ever make any promises to you? What else did he do for you besides saying nice things and showing some care? Can’t anyone do such things?

“Did he ever ask you to be his girlfriend? What about that time when he hugged you in the bathtub for an extended period? While it may be true that we’re no longer living in a feudal era where women whose bare forms are seen must be married to that man, or else they have to shave their heads and become nuns…

“Still, after hugging you for so long, not only did he not avert his eyes, but he even took advantage of the situation. So, did he declare that the two of you are dating each other after that?”

Yuan Keqing was at a loss for words.

“Let that sink in for a second. Although he did hug you, touch you in places, and see you naked, we’re not asking him to take any responsibility. But if he doesn’t like you, he shouldn’t have seen, touched, or even hugged you. Now that he did all that and even kissed you, doesn’t it imply that he has feelings for you?

“We know he likes you, yet he didn’t want to make any official announcement about your relations.h.i.+p.” Tan Mo grinned from ear to ear and added, “So, tell me. How genuine he is toward you?”

Yuan Keqing was tongue-tied.

The way Tan Mo paraphrased her words sounded like she was at the scene at that time.

How could she know everything?

“If he’s unwilling to acknowledge your relations.h.i.+p, do you think he’ll propose to you in the future?” Tan Mo shook her head and went on. “Oh, my dear cousin, you have to wake up and contemplate for your future. Don’t be a cheap girl and let him take advantage of you. Or else, after sacrificing everything, you might get nothing in else.”

No words came out of Yuan Keqing’s mouth.

She couldn’t even refute Tan Mo’s remarks because whatever she said actually made sense.

A sudden epiphany moment occurred to Yuan Keqing that Wei Keli had never once given her a promise of any sort.

He would always call her Sister Keqing intimately.

He would never reject her advances and always treated her with gentleness.

Their relations.h.i.+p became even closer than before after Qin Muye’s birthday.

Following that incident, they contacted each other more regularly.

Their conversation on WeChat was like that of the lovers.

Whenever she told him that she missed him, he would reciprocate.

He would even tell her about his whereabouts like any other boyfriend would.

Sending pictures to inform her of his location, telling her what he was doing, and even trivial stuff like his lessons and lunch were among the things he would fill her in.

They would meet each other in private frequently.

After the happening on Qin Muye’s birthday, Yuan Keqing would feign shyness before Wei Keli whenever they saw each other.

Staring at her flushed face, Wei Keli would pretend to console her.

But he would always end up hugging her shortly after comforting her.

Then, they started hugging, kissing, and going on dates with each other like it was only natural.

Furthermore, the frequency of Wei Keli pawing her increased exponentially.

He expanded the areas where he would touch her.

He had fondled her intimately, even in the most private parts.

Nevertheless, Yuan Keqing was wearing clothes the entire time. She only teased him a little without letting him have his way with her.

Since the two were already at this stage, even a sly woman like Yuan Keqing thought they were on the same page.

By rights, they should have been lovers.

Yet, she had never expected to hear such words coming from Wei Keli on the recording Tan Mo sent her earlier.

In other words, Wei Keli would not reject her advances or take any responsibility.

To Wei Keli, Yuan Keli was nothing more than a lady of convenience.

He would not turn down a woman who took the initiative to approach him since there was no price to pay.

Still, he never had the intention to be responsible or marry her.

The recording did put a damper on her.

Tan Mo noticed Yuan Keqing remained taciturn for a while, yet she did not end the call.

Winking her eyes, Tan Mo said with curiosity, “Don’t tell me that he popped your cherry.”

“No!” Yuan Keqing hollered.

“How would you know that it wasn’t just flattery? After all, what he said to me in private was entirely different from the recording,” Yuan Keqing defended, biting the bullet.

Tan Mo shrugged her shoulders and answered, “Perhaps you’re right. Who knows? But none of it matters anyway. I’ve already told you that I have no feelings for him, so whether what he said was true or not has nothing to do with me.”

Yuan Keqing was dazed upon hearing that.

“I only sent you the recording as a means of bringing you up to speed. Nothing more. At any rate, you’re still calling me your cousin, so I can’t let someone take advantage of you.” Tan Mo put on a smile and carried on. “If he was lying to me, it’s not a problem at all. If you two have a solid relations.h.i.+p, just treat me as an accuser.

“But if he is only playing with your feelings, this should serve as a reminder to help you be alert. Whether you leave him or woo him with all your might is your decision to make!”

It’d be best if she would have an altercation with him before setting her cap at him.

Tan Mo was silently rooting for Yuan Keqing.

The former knew that there was no way the latter would leave Wei Keli.

After all, Wei Keli was the most prominent individual Yuan Keqing had ever known.

“Alright. I got it,” Yuan Keqing replied monotonously.

Yuan Keqing was brimmed with embarra.s.sment after being called out by Tan Mo. As a result, the former acted even more coldly toward her cousin.

But Tan Mo couldn’t care less since she had already achieved her goal.

Tan Mo was pleased after ending the call.

“How could I forget about something this important?” Tan Mo commented.

She was glad that the recording served its purpose.

In retrospect, things were most effective whenever one struck while the iron was hot.

“I can’t believe you actually let such a crucial matter slip past your mind.” Wei Zhiqian nudged Tan Mo’s nose.

All things considered, it seemed to him that it was not all that important to Tan Mo.

Anything pertinent to Wei Zhiqian was inconsequential to her.

Wei Zhiqian was on cloud nine as the thoughts crossed his mind.

Following that, Tan Mo continued to work on her script.

When she finally finished the editing, Wei Zhiqian asked, “Are you done?”

“Yeah, this is the initial edit. I’ll rest and proofread it again with a refreshed mind tomorrow and see if there’s any part to tweak and edit. Once I’m done with that, then it’ll be the end,” Tan Mo noted.

“In any case, you’re done with your work tonight, right?” Wei Zhiqian asked in antic.i.p.ation.

He couldn’t believe that she was busier than him.

Tan Mo nodded in acknowledgment.

With that, Wei Zhiqian hurried Tan Mo to save the doc.u.ment file and shut down her laptop.
