Arrange Things For Tan Mo In Advance
Arrange Things For Tan Mo In Advance
Qin Mufeng was her cousin.
As for Wei Zhiqian, she thought he would become her brother-in-law.
These two, no matter how she looked at it, should be closer to her.
At present, both chose to side with a stranger, and they did so publicly.
Wei Zhiqian looked at the other students in the class aloofly, then spoke decisively, "In the future—not just the five students who exposed Qin Muxiao today—if Qin Muxiao bullies, threatens, or asks you to do bad things for her, just go and tell Qin Muye and Tan Mo." His voice was neither loud nor quiet, but everyone understood him.
"Telling either of them is fine. Mufeng and I will come forward. You don't need to worry anymore. You can come to school with peace of mind and focus on your studies."
Qin Mufeng asked the students to tell Qin Muye if something was up so as to train his younger sister.
Wei Zhiqian did not need to train Tan Mo. Tan Mo was not from a big family like the Qin family, so she did not have as much responsibility as Qin Muye.
He just wanted to establish Tan Mo's position in school and to let everyone know that Tan Mo not only could call him Little Uncle, but she was also under his protection. Hence, no one would dare bully her or treat her bad.
He was his guardian just as Qin Mufeng was Qin Muye's.
He wouldn't let Tan Mo be looked down again in school.
He would graduate in less than two years.
No one in school would protect Tan Mo when he graduated.
What if Tan Mo got bullied in school?
He had to arrange things for Tan Mo in advance.
"Tell the others about what I've just said." Wei Zhiqian looked at the students. "I want everyone to know."
They were young yet mature.
They grew up rich, in a largely competitive environment. Thus, their emotional maturity could not compare with that of ordinary first-grade students.
They quickly understood Wei Zhiqian's intention and purpose.
"Let's go," Qin Mufeng reminded him.
"Brother!" Qin Muxiao, wanting to ask why Qin Mufeng always treated her such, ran after Qin Mufeng.
Wasn't she his sister too?
They were relatives. They were still family. Why was he not taking her side?
Even if she wasn't as good as Qin Muye, she was at least better than Tan Mo!
She had no idea why Qin Mufeng didn't like her.
For as long as she could recall, Qin Mufeng had always been indifferent to her. No matter how well-behaved she was around him, it was useless. He wouldn't give her the time of day.
Because of this, she wanted to bully Qin Muye more!
She was jealous of Qin Muye.
But when she rushed over, Qin Mufeng quickly shielded Qin Muye and put himself between the two girls.
It was as if she would hurt Qin Muye.
She was his sister!
She just wanted to ask him.
But Qin Mufeng acted as if she was going to attack Qin Muye.
Qin Muxiao's face was pale and she was trembling.
Everyone saw that Qin Muxiao was nothing to Qin Mufeng. It was as if she wasn't even worth mentioning.
Qin Mufeng didn't even lower his head, but he looked at Qin Muxiao with contempt.
He didn't say anything to Qin Muxiao, though he noticed that she was pale and shaking.
Qin Mufeng didn't bother to waste any more time, so he led Qin Muye out.
Wei Zhiqian took Tan Mo's hand and followed them.
"Little Uncle!" Tan Mo stopped, took off her school bag from her back, and brought out all the test papers. "Look, I got full marks on all the exams!"
Tan Mo raised her hand holding the papers a little higher so Wei Zhiqian could get a good look.
"Very good." Wei Zhiqian took the test papers from Tan Mo's hand, then looked at them with satisfaction. His efforts paid off.
"During the winter break, come to my house...," Wei Zhiqian originally wanted to say 'every day', but considering Tan Mo's parents and brothers and knowing that they would probably refuse, he said instead, "once a week, and I'll continue to tutor you."
Tan Mo immediately agreed.
When the four of them reached the school gate, the Tan family's car was already outside.
Xu Mingzhen went to the entrance when she saw Tan Mo coming out.
Wei Zhiqian greeted Xu Mingzhen, then he said to Tan Mo, "I won't see you off. I have to go back to class."
Classes in elementary school ended earlier than in high school.
"Goodbye, Uncle." Tan Mo waved at Wei Zhiqian.
As soon as she got in the car, Tan Mo shared her scores with Xu Mingzhen.
Xu Mingzhen hurriedly took Tan Mo into her arms and said, "Mo Mo is the best. You are too impressive. Even you're still in the first grade, you got full marks on the exams for third graders!"
Tan Mo said happily, "I will definitely be able to protect our family in the future."
Xu Mingzhen was moved and replied, "Let's protect each other. How can you protect the whole family alone?"
Though Xu Mingzhen couldn't think of anything they needed protection from as of the moment…
Although the Tan family's business wasn't large, it was better than many businesses.
She was quite content with their family's current situation. She wasn't obsessively comparing their status with others.
As long as everyone in the family got along well and was healthy, that would be enough.
They never fought with anyone or caused troubles. Thus, it was unlikely that anyone would hold a grudge against them or try to hurt them.
Xu Mingzhen didn't care that much about what Tan Mo had just said, but she was moved nonetheless.
"It's already very impressive that you've jumped to third grade easily, so let's take it slow from here. The most important thing is for you to enjoy school, so don't put too much pressure on yourself," Xu Mingzhen said warmly. "You are already making rapid progress."
"Don't worry, Mother. I won't stress myself." She didn't feel stressed at all.
Tan Jinsheng and Tan Jinyi were also going on a break. Their school would also release the exam results today.
"Let's pick up Jinsheng and Jinyi. Jinqi is taking his last exam today, so we may be able to pick him up as well," Xu Mingzhen said.
The three brothers would be very surprised to see Tan Mo.
When Xu Mingzhen and Tan Mo arrived at the gate of Shijing, they waited for a while in the car.
Tan Jinsheng and Tan Jinyi got their test papers, and the teacher finished arranging the homework for the break.
The two of them had no idea that Xu Mingzhen and Tan Mo would come.
Xu Mingzhen didn't say so because she wanted to surprise them.
So, Tan Jinsheng and Tan Jinyi did not rush to go out of school. They went first to the middle school building to wait for Tan Jinqi, who was still taking an exam. As soon as Tan Jinqi was done, all three walked to the gate.
As Xu Mingzhen and Tan Mo were waiting, they saw Xu Mingjing arrived.
Xu Mingjing recognized the Tan family's car, but she wasn't sure if Xu Mingzhen was in there.
Xu Mingzhen saw her, so she got out of the car. Tan Mo followed.
"Sister!" Xu Mingjing walked over with a smile. Seeing that Tan Mo was also there, she asked, "Mo Mo's break starts today as well?"
Xu Mingzhen smiled and replied, "Yes. She went to school today to get her test papers. I just brought her over to pick up her brothers. They will be very happy."
