Chapter 36
“If I find out that you’re using the name of the Qin family to bully people, I’ll make sure that our family will be distinct from yours,” Qin Mufeng warned coldly.
“What low-level and high-level are you talking about? I think you’re a low-level person!” Qin Muye chimed in.
“Don’t be angry. After all, she would always grab your things and try to take away my doll. Her family’s financial situation probably isn’t very good. It’s understandable for children to be both vain and envious.” Tan Mo seemed to be leading Qin Muye on.
But everyone was dumbfounded.
Qin Muxiao had tried to take someone’s doll?
It seemed that the situation in her family was really bad.
Otherwise, why would she snatch Qin Muye’s things?
Qin Muye was the true princess of the Qin family.
Tan Mo quietly poked Qin Muye, and Qin Muye reacted. “Forget it, Qin Muxiao. I won’t lower myself to your level. If you humiliate the Qin family again, the rest of us will no longer acknowledge you!”
“Little Uncle, let’s go.” Tan Mo took Wei Zhiqian’s hand.
Qin Muxiao’s bluff was exposed. Everyone had seen Qin Muxiao’s situation clearly. Thus, they wouldn’t continue to support Qin Muxiao.
“Brother!” Qin Muxiao felt her face burning with shame.
This was the second time that she suffered humiliation in front of Tan Mo and Wei Zhiqian.
“Why are you doing this to me? Why are you helping outsiders to bully me?” Qin Muxiao shouted.
In the eyes of everyone around, she felt especially ashamed.
“Hmph!” Qin Mufeng was too lazy to reason with Qin Muxiao. In front of everyone, he didn’t treat her as a family. He then led Qin Muye out.
By ignoring her and treating her as nothing, he further proved Qin Muxiao’s insignificance in Qin Mufeng’s eyes.
Qin Muxiao’s arrogance gradually dissipated.
Seeing Wei Zhiqian leaving with Tan Mo, Qin Muxiao was angry and aggrieved. She started crying.
How could their classmates be afraid of her now?
Didn’t they just witness Qin Mufeng of the Qin family ignore her?
“Qin Mufeng is the heir of the Qin family, but even Qin Mufeng disregarded her.”
“In a family as big as the Qin family, not all people named Qin have authority. There are important and unimportant people.”
“I thought she was actually important.”
“I heard that her sister, Qin Murong, is also in school, and she is very popular. In this regard, her sister is also…”
“Speaking of her older sister, hasn’t it been said that her older sister and Wei Zhiqian were childhood sweethearts? Although they haven’t been engaged yet, isn’t she assumed to be his fiancée? But from Wei Zhiqian’s attitude toward Qin Muxiao, how true is that Murong will be Wei Zhiqian’s fiancée?”
“So you mean, even the fiancée rumor is fake?”
“It’s possible. I think their family isn’t taken seriously in the Qin clan. If she’s going to marry Wei Zhiqian, they will surely be treated with regard.”
“I just didn’t expect Tan Mo to have such a good relationship with Wei Zhiqian. Did you hear Tan Mo calling him Little Uncle? You heard that too, right?”
“Yes, I did. The Tan family sounds modest, and I don’t know where they came from, but Qin Muye is friends with Tan Mo. From the looks of it, it seems like Tan Mo is much better than Qin Muxiao.”
Qin Muxiao heard what her classmates were talking about.
She pushed them away and ran out crying.
Ming Yeqing chuckled derisively.
In this class, there was no such thing as loyalty.
Everyone switched sides quickly.
Wei Zhiqian and Qin Mufeng took the two little girls to the school cafeteria.
Zhao Gushen and the others were already eating. When they saw them coming in, they waved at them. “I reserved this seat for you. What took you so long?”
“There was a small episode, but it’s not a big deal,” Wei Zhiqian said. “Mo Mo, let me introduce you to some people. They belong to the other six of the eight big families. They were at the birthday party last time, but you didn’t have the opportunity to meet them.”
“This is Little Uncle Zhao Gushen, Little Uncle Han Zhuoli, Little Uncle Chu Zhaoyang, Little Uncle Yan Beicheng, Little Uncle Qi Chengzhi, and Little Uncle Wei Ziqi,” Wei Zhiqian introduced them one by one.
Zhao Gushen and others were surprised.
Little Uncle? They had another niece?
“Just call me brother.” Yan Beicheng was the first one to react.
“If you guys want to have the same privilege of calling me Little Uncle as Mo Mo, I won’t have any objections.” Wei Zhiqian was fine with it. He had no reason to decline being called Little Uncle.
Han Zhuoli then said, “Then just call me Little Uncle.”
“But Little Uncle…” Tan Mo pulled Wei Zhiqian’s pants because she was too short, while Wei Zhiqian was tall.
She tried to pull Wei Zhiqian’s shirt but couldn’t reach it.
“Then do I also have to call Muye Little Auntie?” How could they still be friends without getting awkward?
Wei Zhiqian threw him a knowing look.
Qin Muye was extremely happy. “Call Little Auntie for us to hear.”
Tan Mo pouted and looked at Wei Zhiqian sulkily.
Because of Wei Zhiqian fussing about seniority, Tan Mo was now a generation younger than Qin Muye!
Wei Zhiqian explained, “You two are the only exception. You don’t have to follow us.”
“But you still have to call me Little Uncle,” Qin Mufeng quickly added.
He didn’t want Wei Zhiqian to get an advantage over him.
Tan Mo didn’t want to pay attention to these immature people, so she pulled Qin Muye away. “Let’s get some food first.”
The cafeteria was in a buffet setup, the standard of a five-star hotel buffet, and they could take food at will.
However, the management was very strict in reminding students that food should not be wasted. No leftovers were allowed.
However, the students here were used to eating good food and weren’t greedy, so they only took what they could eat.
Tan Mo and Qin Muye took their lunch and returned to the table with their plates.
While Wei Zhiqian sat beside Tan Mo, he happened to hear her ask Qin Muye. “Do you know Ming Yeqing?”
“Yes.” Qin Muye nodded. “You’re curious about why he’s the only one who dares to take your side, right?”
Tan Mo nodded.
Before Qin Muye could explain, Wei Zhiqian joined the girls’ conversation. “In addition to his family’s influence, it’s also because of his character. The children of the Ming family are generally quite good. He also has an older sister, Ming Yutong, who also studies here. Their family has a good relationship with the Chu family, and Ming Yutong and Lao Chu are childhood sweethearts.”
Upon hearing Wei Zhiqian’s words, Chu Zhaoyang nodded with an affectionate expression on his face. “Yes.”
He agreed with everything Wei Zhiqian had said.
Seeing Tan Mo tilting her head but not knowing what she was thinking, Wei Zhiqian thought she was probably thinking about Ming Yeqing.
Thinking how he was a handsome boy, Wei Zhiqian reached out and flicked her forehead. “You’re too young to think about boys.”
Everyone’s eyes widened.
He was too controlling, as if she were really his niece.
Tan Mo rubbed her forehead. “No, I’m looking over there.”
Wei Zhiqian followed the direction Tan Mo had pointed at and saw the table across. A girl was standing by the table, asking a boy, “Can I sit here?”
