Chapter 484 - What You Say Makes Sense

Wei Zhiqian happened to hear what Tan Mo had said.

His expression immediately darkened, and he glared at Yu Hanxia guardedly.

At the same time, he strode over to walk beside Tan Mo and squeezed Yu Hanxia out of the picture.

Yu Hanxia was considered tall among girls.

However, she had now been completely blocked by Wei Zhiqian and Tan Mo could not see her at all.

“Is it all settled?” Wei Zhiqian asked Tan Mo, as if he did not realize he was blocking Yu Hanxia.

Yu Hanxia snorted. She was surprised that Wei Zhiqian either did not realize his feelings or he was like a lunatic and even guarded Tan Mo against females.

She guessed that there must be a hole in his brain.

Yu Hanxia rolled her eyes at him behind his back and turned and walked away.

Tan Mo blinked, raised her head, and said to Wei Zhiqian, “Uncle, you are blocking sister Yu.”

“She already left.” Without turning his head, Wei Zhiqian had heard Yu Hanxia’s departing footsteps.

Of course, he had also heard Yu Hanxia’s snort.

That snort had a deep resentment in it.

He even suspected that if Yu Hanxia could have beat him in a fight, she would have beat him up directly.

“Sister Yu was angry,” Tan Mo said.

“She wasn’t,” Wei Zhiqian answered with conviction.

“She obviously was.” Tan Mo had heard it too. “She even snorted.”

“She was clearing her throat,” Wei Zhiqian said.

Walking away, Yu Hanxia turned her head abruptly.

PFFT!

Only your family clear their throats with a snort.

Zhou Jingan saw what had happened and quickly walked over to apologize to Yu Hanxia.

Of course, he didn’t dare to say anything much about Wei Zhiqian.

He knew what Wei Zhiqian was capable of.

If Wei Zhiqian heard him say anything negative about him, it would not be good.

Both these individuals didn’t have a good temper.

Zhou Jingan could only act out a mime for Yu Hanxia. He pointed at Wei Zhiqian, curled his lips, shook his head, then gestured to his brain, then shook his head, and held his palms out.

There was no help for it.

Yu Hanxia: “…”

The people who had been responsible for taking those photos were also finished with their task.

“I will have them organize the photos and send copies to you tonight. I will also find people to compare them,” Wei Zhiqian said.

“All right, thank you.” Tan Mo nodded.

Wei Zhiqian then left.

Tan Mo returned to her dormitory.

Once she was back, her three roommates crowded around her.

“How is it? How did your investigation go?” Meng Yuxi asked.

“We have only done the preliminary work, and we have yet to officially start investigating,” Tan Mo said. “We have already started to find all the clues we can think of.”

“Don’t talk about it anymore,” Jin Yuelin reminded Meng Yuxi. “Don’t let other people hear what you’re talking about. Even if there are clues, Tan Mo, you have to hide them. Don’t let other people find out. What if you alert the person who posted the thread?

“What if…” Jin Yuelin paused, then said, “…she has a way to destroy the clues?

“This matter was completely blown up today, and President Mu has personally involved himself. Even the students who wrote negative comments in reply to the thread have been punished. So can you imagine the person who posted the thred?” Jin Yuelin said. “That person who posted the thread must be afraid now. Once caught, they might even get expelled.”

“You’re right.” Meng Yuxi nodded. “I discussed this with Yuelin. The university is strict toward rule-breaking. Behavior such as cheating during exams, causing negative influences on society, can result in students being expelled.

“To be practical, let’s take cheating during exams as an example. Before university, from primary school to high school, isn’t it common? We had never seen someone being expelled for that. But, once in university, that is not acceptable.”

“This is good; it should be severely punished. Regardless if it was cheating or some other thing, a severe punishment would deter others from doing it,” Jin Yuelin said. “The matter this time got too ugly in our school. I asked around and the previous years had never had such a thing as someone trying to frame their classmate. This is why President Mu was especially angry. This is an issue about character.”

“If this matter had been blown up and spread outside our school, there would be a big impact on our school’s reputation,” Meng Yuxi said. “Moreover, this matter involved you.

“Everyone knows now that you are an icon of Beijing University and have won many honors for our school. The person who posted the thread framed you and should not be let off easy.”

Lin Fuxi listened to Jin Yuelin and Meng Yuxi discuss this matter as she hid behind them.

She then squeezed into the conversation and asked, “Tan Mo, how is your investigation going about the person who posted the thread?”

“It is not bad, the progress is smooth,” Tan Mo said to Lin Fuxi. “I’m so intelligent. Shouldn’t this investigation be an easy matter for me? Don’t worry, I will find out the answer in a few days.”

Lin Fuxi: “…”

As if you had found out something…you only know how to boast!

Lin Fuxi felt sure that Tan Mo certainly did not find out anything.

Otherwise, with Tan Mo’s high profile and boastful personality, wouldn’t she show off that she had found something?

It seemed that Tan Mo and a large group of people were making a big fuss.

It was not known what they were investigating.

“Then what are you investigating now?” Lin Fuxi asked. She wanted to get some useful information from Tan Mo.

“Isn’t it just investigating the identity of the person who posted the thread?” Tan Mo looked at Lin Fuxi as if she was a fool.

Was this a question that needed to be asked?

Lin Fuxi: “…”

Was that the meaning behind her question?

Was Tan Mo stupid?

“I mean, did you find out any clues about the person who posted the thread?” Lin Fuxi asked again.

She had asked clearly and did not believe that Tan Mo did not understand.

Otherwise, Tan Mo must be pretending to be stupid.

She did not expect that Tan Mo would look at her quietly.

She looked at her for quite a while, and Lin Fuxi felt a bit guilty under Tan Mo’s gaze.

“Why are you looking at me like that?” Lin Fuxi grumbled. “And why aren’t you saying anything?”

“Lin Fuxi, I actually am impressed with you,” Tan Mo suddenly said.

Lin Fuxi did not understand, where was this coming from?

Tan Mo did not answer her question and suddenly said that she was impressed with her.

What was she impressed about?

“Previously, you were stomping your feet and saying a lot of things and saying that I bullied you. Our relationship was falling apart, and now you can act like nothing happened. This is why I said that I am quite impressed by you.”

Lin Fuxi: “…”

“Tan Mo, I am trying to talk nicely with you. Can’t you talk nicely with me too?” Lin Fuxi said in a wronged tone. “You are like this, unwilling to talk nicely with me, and you always speak to me in a sarcastic manner.”

Tan Mo thought for a minute and then she said, “What you say makes sense.”

The more Tan Mo said, the more guarded Lin Fuxi became.

Tan Mo had never recognized her as a human being and had never spoken a nice word to her.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

There was surely a problem if she suddenly agreed with her now.
