Chapter 83 - You Have to Keep a Distance from the Opposite Gender, Understand?
“Little Uncle, I was even worried that you would think I am selfish,” Tan Mo muttered.
“You better be more selfish. Don’t help anyone but your loved ones.” (Including him.)
“I will be selfish.” Tan Mo’s smile looked very innocent at this time. “I will only treat my parents and brothers, the Old Master, the Old Madame, Little Uncle’s parents, and the Little Uncle, who are all my close relatives.
“Ever since I was young, none of the people I’ve helped have gone beyond this range.”
Seeing Tan Mo’s sly smile, Wei Zhiqian shook his head helplessly and said, “You have many excuses.”
“Little Uncle, your wound really doesn’t hurt anymore?” Tan Mo stretched out a hand and was tempted to touch Wei Zhiqian’s bandage.
She was quickly caught by Wei Zhiqian. “What do you want to do?”
“Let me have a look. I have to take a look at it to feel relieved.” Tan Mo looked at Wei Zhiqian seriously.
“Didn’t you see it when the bandages were changed just now?” Wei Zhiqian raised his eyebrows and asked.
“My line of sight happened to be blocked by the butler,” Tan Mo said as she pouted. “Moreover, I was worried about your opinion of me before. I was scared and didn’t even dare to look up, so how could I have seen your wound?”
Wei Zhiqian said helplessly, “Butler Zhou bandaged me, so you’ll have to take it apart if you want to see it.”
“I will bandage it for you again afterward.” Tan Mo thought to herself, she would give Wei Zhiqian some more energy so he wouldn’t even need a bandage anymore.
“Do you know how to bandage it?” Wei Zhiqian really couldn’t imagine how Tan Mo would tie the bandage.
She definitely didn’t know how to do a bandage correctly.
“What’s hard about it? I will definitely bandage it beautifully and tightly.” Tan Mo tugged at the bandage and said, “Little Uncle, just let me take a look.”
Wei Zhiqian really had no other choice. He had to unbutton his hospital gown.
Tan Mo had no intention of looking away at all.
Why should she feel shy around her Little Uncle?
Her clear black eyes stared as Wei Zhiqian unbuttoned his clothes.
Her Little Uncle’s hands were really beautiful.
His hands were very thin, and with the movements of his fingers, the bones on the back of his hands protruded and disappeared from time to time.
His fingers were thin and long, but they looked very powerful.
Wei Zhiqian: “…”
This little girl was so bold at such a young age.
Her eyes stared at him intently without any intention of looking away.
Even if she was still young, she is a teenager, so she should know about avoiding such scenes.
Wei Zhiqian stopped undressing and said helplessly, “You have grown up now, so you need to keep a distance from the opposite gender, understand?”
Tan Mo didn’t know why this topic had come up, but she nodded innocently.
What did this mean?
“Are there any other boys undressing in front of you?” Wei Zhiqian asked.
If there were, he was going to be in big trouble.
After thinking for a long time, Tan Mo asked, “Do swimming lessons count?”
Wei Zhiqian: “…”
“No, that doesn’t count.” Although, Wei Zhiqian felt that even for swimming lessons, attention still needed to be paid.
“Then there’s no one. If someone undresses in front of me, wouldn’t that person be a pervert?” Tan Mo said.
Wei Zhiqian: “…”
Why does he feel that he is like a pervert now?
Wei Zhiqian turned his back to her and unbuttoned the rest of the buttons. He heard Tan Mo ask behind him, “Little Uncle, why are you turning your back to me?”
“I don’t want to be a pervert.” Wei Zhiqian gritted his teeth.
“…” Tan Mo twisted around until she could see the side of Wei Zhiqian’s face. “Then how will you show me your wound later?”
Wei Zhiqian: “…”
“We don’t need to have so many qualms,” Tan Mo said.
Wei Zhiqian: “…”
Wei Zhiqian agreed with her, but this made him feel hypocritical.
Even so, it still didn’t feel appropriate to unbutton in front of the little girl.
So Wei Zhiqian quickly unbuttoned the hospital gown, opened it, but did not take it off. As long as the wound could be exposed, it would be fine.
Then he turned around.
“I’ll get the scissors.” When Tan Mo went to get the scissors, she asked, “Why hasn’t the butler returned? He has been gone for a long time.”
“Butler Zhou specially left the room so we could talk.” Although Butler Zhou didn’t know what Wei Zhiqian had planned to say to Tan Mo, he knew that Wei Zhiqian had important things that he wanted to talk to Tan Mo about.
So far, no one could surpass Butler Zhou’s keen observation and attentiveness.
“Butler Zhou doesn’t know?” Tan Mo returned with the scissors.
“Perhaps he’s guessed it. Butler Zhou is very smart, but he didn’t say anything. He knows that your affairs must be kept secret,” Wei Zhiqian said.
It can be regarded as him not knowing.
Tan Mo was holding the scissors and had already touched the bandage.
Wei Zhiqian held Tan Mo’s hand and said, “Can you really put the bandage back on for me?”
“If it really doesn’t work, I’ll get the butler.” Tan Mo was not worried at all.
Wei Zhiqian: “…”
He thought, this little girl has been spoiled since she was a child, so how can she know how to do this?”
But with Butler Zhou, there was nothing to fear.
Tan Mo cut the bandage with the scissors. The wound on Wei Zhiqian’s shoulder was revealed.
“Is it still a little painful?” Tan Mo knew that she had overdrawn her powers to heal him, but it hadn’t been enough to eliminate all the pain for him in one go.
Her abilities weren’t at that level yet.
Wei Zhiqian grabbed Tan Mo’s outstretched hand and said, “Want to treat me again?”
“You’re mostly healed, so I just need to use a little more power. This time, it’s like a tickling, and there won’t be any damage at all.” Tan Mo’s index finger and thumb made a gesture to show that it would be small. “Moreover, your injury is almost healed and you can get discharged soon. I can help you get there quicker.
“If you leave the hospital sooner, you can find out why you were injured in the first place. Moreover, those who don’t know the reason for your hospitalization and only know you were injured will think that you must stay in the hospital for a long time. If you get out earlier, you can take the enemy by surprise by pretending that the injury isn’t healed yet while investigating secretly. It is much more convenient than investigating while recovering from the injury in the hospital.”
Wei Zhiqian had always known that Tan Mo was very smart. Since she could skip a grade at Jixia University, how can she be stupid?
Later, Tan Mo didn’t skip any more grades, not because her abilities made her unable to skip any more grades, but because Qin Muxiao didn’t bother her anymore, and Tan Mo, a little lazy, didn’t want to go to school all day long then have to study after school.
Even if Wei Zhiqian urged her to skip, it was useless.
Tan Mo had the Tan family to protect her, and they wouldn’t let her suffer no matter what.
In their opinion, it was fine if Tan Mo didn’t want to work super-hard, because they would take care of her.
The important thing for them was that she would come home every day after school, and she wouldn’t be abducted by Wei Zhiqian again.
“No.” Wei Zhiqian refused. “You just had a fever yesterday and your body hasn’t fully recovered today. You can’t exhaust yourself anymore.”
