Chapter 65 - Why Is There a Boy?

It was unbelievable how shocked she had been that time when Ming Yeqing had started talking about her.

Why was she surrounded by geniuses?

It was really stressful.

“Stop pulling at your hair.” Ming Yeqing smiled and held onto Qin Muye’s wrist to keep her from pulling out her hair. “It’s not you who is stupid, but we who are too smart.”

“Those words don’t comfort me at all.” Qin Muye looked at Ming Yeqing with frustration.

“Ah, just think about Qin Muxiao. You’re in the first year of high school, yet she is still in the third year of middle school,” Tan Mo reminded her.

“Ha, ha, ha, ha!” Qin Muye was feeling more happy now and said, “Back in the first grade of elementary school, Qin Muxiao’s scores were so low she had to repeat the grade. I was so happy.”

Qin Muxiao had accused Tan Mo of cheating and had lost a lot of credits.

In addition, Qin Muxiao’s grades weren’t good in the first semester of first grade either, so although her grades in the next semester were decent, too many credits had been deducted.

So she unfortunately had to repeat that grade.

Since they weren’t in the same grade that she was any longer, Qin Muye and Tan Mo had peace of mind.

Now, everything had been going smoothly for Qin Muye and Tan Mo.

“All right, anyway, although I am not a genius, I am not stupid, and my intelligence is above average.” Qin Muye’s depressed mood quickly healed on its own, and she said, “When the time comes, I will also go to Beijing University, and I will find you guys.”

As she finished speaking, Qin Muye looked at them with a warning look and said, “You two won’t stop studying after graduating from university, right?”

“No, no, I will definitely continue my education,” Tan Mo said quickly.

Ming Yeqing also smiled and nodded. “Me too.”

“That’s good.” Qin Muye felt relieved now.

…

Coincidentally, Wei Zhiqian was having a meal with his classmates in a restaurant in the same mall.

Wei Zhiqian was currently studying at Beijing University and was doing an internship in Wei Feng to prepare for taking over Wei Feng in the future.

Qin Mufeng and his other friends were all studying at prestigious foreign universities.

Only Wei Zhiqian had stayed at Beijing University.

At this meal, he was with his classmates from Beijing University. Qin Mufeng and his other friends weren’t with him.

“Zhiqian!”

Wei Zhiqian and the others had ordered and were waiting for the food when they heard a soft cry.

Everyone looked over together. They saw Qin Murong wearing a short dress that showed off her long legs. She was walking toward them.

Two of her classmates were following her, but they were completely overshadowed by Qin Murong’s glamour, and no one paid any attention to them.

“Murong, what a coincidence.” One of the boys sitting next to Wei Zhiqian greeted her with a smile.

“Yes, we came here to have a meal, and I didn’t expect to encounter you.” Qin Murong glanced at the situation at the table and asked, “Are you all here for a meeting?”

Her eyes fell on Wei Zhiqian and she didn’t look away.

Everyone present knew that this had been no coincidence. Qin Murong must have inquired about Wei Zhiqian’s whereabouts in advance from someone he was eating with and come here deliberately, pretending to have a chance encounter.

When Qin Murong had entered college, she was regarded as the most beautiful girl at Beijing University.

Many people wanted to pursue her.

However, it didn’t take long for them to discover that Qin Murong had her sights set on Wei Zhiqian, and she spent all her time chasing after Wei Zhiqian.

Wherever Wei Zhiqian was, there would be Qin Murong.

Since they were competing with Wei Zhiqian, all the other boys had given up.

Moreover, on campus, there were rumors that the two seemed to be engaged.

These rumors had just been fabricated from smoke and mirrors. There was no way to verify them, and no one dared to really ask them about it. They kept their thoughts to themselves and believed in the rumors.

“Yes.” The boy who’d greeted Qin Murong just now was named Hao Lunxing, and he said to Qin Murong, “Since we’ve run into each other, shall we eat together?”

Qin Murong asked hesitantly, “Will it bother you guys?”

“How so?” Another boy named Feng Lizheng said immediately. “It’s a rare opportunity to have a meal with the college’s most beautiful girl, and we didn’t even plan it.”

“Definitely, yes, just give us this opportunity,” Hu Wenchong, sitting on the other side of the table, said immediately.

Hao Lunxing, who was sitting next to Wei Zhiqian, got up and gave up his seat. “Come on, sit down right here.”

Qin Murong was overjoyed and said thank you pretentiously, as she came to sit down next to Wei Zhiqian.

Wei Zhiqian had been just about to get up and leave, Then, through the glass wall of the restaurant, he suddenly saw Tan Mo, Qin Muye, and Ming Yeqing passing by outside.

Wei Zhiqian’s first reaction was, how come this little girl was dating so early?

His second reaction was, she is about to take the college entrance examination soon, yet she still has time to go on a date.

From that moment on, Wei Zhiqian’s gaze rested on Tan Mo and never left her.

“Sorry, I see a friend, so I have to leave. You guys can continue without me.” Wei Zhiqian said as he stood up.

Then he ran out of the restaurant.

Everyone who had ever gone out to a meal with Wei Zhiqian could be regarded as familiar with him, but they had never seen Wei Zhiqian so anxious before.

“Ah…” Hao Lunxing raised his hand but was too late to call out to him. He regarded the others with a puzzled look and asked, “Why is he so anxious?”

Everyone’s eyes followed Wei Zhiqian’s back.

They saw him run out of the restaurant and stop right outside of it.

“Tan Mo!” Wei Zhiqian shouted.

Tan Mo turned her head in surprise and called out, “Little Uncle!”

Tan Mo’s porcelain-looking face lit up in surprise, and she rushed toward Wei Zhiqian without hesitation.

Just like when she was a child, she threw herself into Wei Zhiqian’s arms.

Although Tan Mo had been growing older these last few years, her attitude toward Wei Zhiqian had never changed.

She had been held in Wei Zhiqian’s arms every day when she was young, and now that she was grown up, she would still cling to him whenever she saw him.

The relationship between them had not drifted apart due to their age gap. On the contrary, they had become more and more close.

“What are you doing here?” Tan Mo was so happy that her whole body hung on Wei Zhiqian’s body like a little koala.

Wei Zhiqian was going to graduate school, and he also needed to learn his family’s company’s affairs, while Tan Mo needed to prepare for the college entrance exam.

Recently, the two of them hadn’t seen too much of each other like they had done before.

“I’ve missed you so much!” Tan Mo rested in Wei Zhiqian’s arms and swayed, as if she wasn’t afraid of falling.

She knew that Wei Zhiqian would definitely protect her.

Wei Zhiqian’s smile was full of affection. He shielded Tan Mo to prevent her from falling and said, “I was having a meal here, but then I unexpectedly saw you.”

Qin Muye turned her head, pointed to his nose, and asked Ming Yeqing, “Didn’t he see us also?”

The three of them had been walking together, okay?

What did he mean by saying that he had just seen Tan Mo?

Ming Yeqing shook his head and smiled helplessly.

“As for you, the college entrance examination is happening soon, so why aren’t you studying, but are out here strolling around instead?” Wei Zhiqian frowned at her as he asked.

Wei Zhiqian’s stern appearance could still be very scary.

Tan Mo silently got down from Wei Zhiqian’s arms and explained to him, “It’s because of the college entrance examination that I’m here. We came here to buy more stationery for the exam just in case we need it.”

“If you only came out to buy stationery, just ask Muye to go with you. Why is there a boy also?” Wei Zhiqian asked in a displeased tone.
