Chapter 67: Shameful Petty Thoughts

Tan Mo had turned out to be so beautiful now!

She hadn’t recognized her at all.

Tan Mo’s face didn’t look at all like it had looked during her childhood.

She remembered that Tan Mo had been only a little fair and cute when she was a child, but, as a child, anyone fair and cute would look pretty.

And the more beautiful you are when you are a child, the more likely it is that you won’t be as good-looking after you grow up.

But what’s the deal with Tan Mo’s breathtakingly gorgeous face?

“That’s right, you haven’t met Tan Mo that many times, and mostly only when she was a child.” Qin Muye felt happy when she saw Qin Murong’s resentful expression.

Qin Murong felt that she was outstanding in appearance and would therefore be lucky in every endeavor she attempted, which is why she had the confidence to keep pestering Wei Zhiqian.

Now, Qin Murong could see that she paled in comparison with Tan Mo.

Qin Murong must be fuming with rage.

“Women’s appearances change as they grow up. Haven’t you heard Qin Muxiao say that before? Mo Mo has been the most beautiful girl in Jixia Academy since last year. From elementary school to high school, there has been no one who can compare to her.” Qin Muye praised Tan Mo gleefully.

It’s so nice to have a good friend who makes her feel so proud.

Before, when Tan Mo was still young, she looked like a child.

But ever since last year, she had started to appear like a young teenage girl, and her facial features had matured all of a sudden. She became so beautiful that people weren’t able to move their eyes away from her.

Of course, Qin Murong has heard Qin Muxiao complain about her.

It was simply that Qin Muxiao had treated Tan Mo as if she had been a pain in her neck ever since she had been a child, so Qin Murong had thought Qin Muxiao just had a personal grudge, and she didn’t take the matter to heart.

Only now when she saw Tan Mo did she realize how outrageously wrong she had been.

“I can’t talk to you any longer. We’re going to eat.” Qin Muye waved her hand toward Qin Murong, and then dragged Ming Yeqing away.

“Wait a second.” Qin Murong followed behind her, saying, “Since we’ve run into each other, let’s go together.”

“No. Aren’t you still with those other people just now? Besides, believe it or not, if you go there, Wei Zhiqian will walk away with Tan Mo without even eating.” Qin Muye sneered, and her words felt like a knife cutting into Qin Murong’s heart. “Do you really have no idea how much he dislikes you?”

“Qin Muye!” Qin Murong gritted her teeth angrily. “Where are your manners?”

“I don’t have manners? Are you scolding my parents or my brother?” Qin Muye’s laughter made Qin Murong grit her teeth with anger. “I might not have manners, but Wei Zhiqian doesn’t mind letting me tag along for a meal,” Qin Muye said coldly, and she repeated her previous order to Ming Yeqing, “Let’s go.”

Qin Muye pulled Ming Yeqing and hurried to catch up with Tan Mo.

“You’re being pestered by Qin Murong?” Tan Mo guessed what had happened.

“She was asking me about you.” Qin Muye told her all about the matter. “She had an impression of you when you were still a child. After finding out about you, you don’t know how ugly her expression got.”

Qin Muye took Tan Mo’s arm and chatted with her affectionately, leaving Wei Zhiqian and Ming Yeqing on the sidelines.

The four of them entered a restaurant. After sitting down, Qin Muye held the lemonade that had been delivered by the waiter and said, “I heard that since she entered Beijing University, she has been considered the most beautiful girl in school, even though she is now a graduate student. Because of this, she is getting too big for her britches. I am waiting for you to be admitted to Beijing University and crush her.”

Wei Zhiqian tapped Qin Muye on the head and said, “Why compare Tan Mo to the likes of her? They aren’t on the same level. Isn’t it demeaning to compare yourself with her?”

Although her brother and Wei Zhiqian were good friends, Qin Muye interacted with Wei Zhiqian far less than Tan Mo did.

This was the first time that she had experienced Wei Zhiqian’s sharp tongue, and her mouth fell open with shock.

Jesus Christ, she should have just agreed to bring Qin Murong with her.

So that Qin Murong could hear this with her own ears.

Jesus Christ! Jesus Christ!

If Qin Murong had heard this, wouldn’t she have exploded on the spot?

“After we eat, go back and study. You can play again after the exam.” Wei Zhiqian reminded Tan Mo.

“I know.” Tan Mo pouted at Wei Zhiqian.

Qin Muye thought, wow, her treatment was really different.

Wei Zhiqian smacked her on the head without hesitation, but he was reluctant to smack Tan Mo on the head.

…

In the blink of an eye, it was the day of the college entrance examination.

Because of Tan Mo’s college entrance examination, Tan Wenci didn’t even go to work at his company.

Her three older brothers have already gone to college, so they had some free time.

So the Tan family set off all together to take Tan Mo to the college entrance examination.

Tan Mo and Ming Yeqing didn’t have the same test site.

Therefore, when they arrived outside the school where the test center was located, they saw that Tan Mo was the youngest person there.

“Cousin!”

Everyone turned their heads and saw that Xu Mingjing was here with Yuan Keqing.

“Mingjing, Keqing.” Xu Mingzhen was taken aback and asked, “Why are you two here?”

Yuan Keqing was still in the first year of high school, but because Shijing had been selected as the test site for the college entrance examination this time, the whole school was closed.

Was it possible that Yuan Keqing wanted to experience the atmosphere of the college entrance examination in advance?

At 15 years old, Yuan Keqing was already able to hide all her thoughts very well. She barely showed any emotions at all.

At a very young age, she had been able to be such an excellent phony.

Now that she was 15 years old, her abilities to practice passive-aggressive behavior and to be really phony have gotten even higher.

Xu Mingjing smiled and said, “Keqing wanted to come and cheer on Mo Mo, so I brought her here.”

“It’s a very nice idea, but she’s in high school now and has a lot of schoolwork, so it’s probably best to stay at home and review your work,” Xu Mingzhen said with a smile.

Yuan Keqing’s test scores were no longer comparable to those of Tan Mo as Tan Mo had skipped several grades. Yuan Zhengwen had started his own business, so the interaction between the two families hadn’t been that frequent in the last few years.

Xu Mingzhen definitely hadn’t expected Yuan Keqing to come to see Tan Mo.

Yuan Keqing shook her head with a smile and said, “One day won’t make a difference. My cousin’s college entrance examination is very important.”

“Mingzhen.” In a coincidence, they actually encountered Wei Keli at this time.

They saw Li Xiangrong bringing Wei Keli over. Li Xiangrong greeted Tan Wenci and Xu Mingjing.

Wei Keli looked at Tan Mo with an ambivalent expression on his face.

Tan Mo was four years younger than he was, but had ended up taking the college entrance examination in the same year as he did.

At Jixia Academy, when Tan Mo had jumped to the same grade as him, Wei Keli had been shocked.

In order to be admitted to Beijing University, he had deliberately repeated one year, but Tan Mo had been able to skip multiple grades.

Based on his grades, it was going to be easy for him to be accepted into Beijing University or his family could spend some money for him to go abroad, but Wei Zhiqian was going to Beijing University, so he also wanted to go. He didn’t want others to say that he was inferior to Wei Zhiqian.

The only good thing about the whole situation was that at least they weren’t in the same class.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t know how to face Tan Mo.

Tan Mo was so outstanding at such a young age, and it put too much pressure on him.

He really didn’t want to admit that he couldn’t compare to Tan Mo, this little girl who was younger than him.

“Mo Mo,” Wei Keli exclaimed with an ambivalent smile.

“Brother Keli.” Tan Mo smiled a pure smile, as if she couldn’t see through Wei Keli’s thoughts at all.

This made Wei Keli’s mood even more complicated.

He had to hide his shameful petty thoughts.

Wei Keli hurriedly changed the subject and said, “Sister Keqing, why are you here?”

“I’m here to cheer for my cousin,” Yuan Keqing said softly.

Yuan Keqing’s appearance wasn’t as pretty as Tan Mo’s.
