Chapter 86: This Girl Dares to Say Anything

Xu Mingzhen had been absolutely unwilling to give in. She didn’t want to pay a single penny when it wasn’t her turn.

In the past, when it had been the Yuan family’s turn to pay, Xu Mingjing had often come to beg her for help, but now it was useless for her to try.

Old Madame Xu doted on Xu Mingjing so much, so Xu Mingjing can’t really abandon Old Madame, right?

They have no choice but to follow Xu Mingzhen’s proposal: the two families taking turns financially supporting Old Madame Xu.

Unexpectedly, before Xu Mingzhen had had a chance to go see Xu Mingjing today, Xu Mingjing had come to her house with Yuan Keqing.

Unexpectedly, Li Xiangrong had also come with Wei Keli.

She really didn’t know if this had been a coincidence or if the two families had agreed on this beforehand.

However, Xu Mingzhen still believed that Li Xiangrong wouldn’t join hands with Xu Mingjing to spite her.

There was a high probability it was a coincidence.

Because of the presence of Li Xiangrong and Wei Keli, Xu Mingzhen couldn’t confront Xu Mingjing directly.

After all, to really settle the account, she would have to tell them about Wei Zhiqian’s injury.

She doesn’t know if Li Xiangrong knows about it or not, but Li Xiangrong cannot find out from her.

As for Xu Mingjing, she needs to say that Yuan Keqing deliberately said it to deceive Tan Mo.

Xu Mingzhen was determined to settle accounts, with Yuan Keqing so naturally she took all these factors into consideration.

She would have to wait for Li Xiangrong to take Wei Keli and leave. Then Xu Mingzhen could talk to Xu Mingjing and Yuan Keqing.

Unexpectedly, Tan Mo came back not long after the four people had sat down.

Seeing how well-behaved Tan Mo was being and how she smiled at Yuan Keqing, Xu Mingzhen felt as if a knife was cutting at her heart.

“Haven’t they finished with the exams? That’s why I came with Keli for a visit.” Li Xiangrong obviously had no idea what Yuan Keqing had done. “Unexpectedly, I encountered Mrs. Yuan at the door.”

“After the last exam, I didn’t see you leaving so I had to leave first,” Wei Keli said. “I haven’t had time to ask you, what did you think of the exam?”

“By the way, sister, what school is Mo Mo’s first choice?” Xu Mingjing tilted her head and asked Xu Mingzhen.

Xu Mingzhen watched her reaction. It seemed as if she also had no idea what Yuan Keqing had done.

Xu Mingzhen didn’t know what to think about it.

Under everyone’s gaze, Tan Mo kept her head down.

Xu Mingjing felt baffled. Why wasn’t Tan Mo making eye contact with anyone?

And then Tan Mo’s shoulders suddenly shook.

Next they heard her sobbing in quiet but clear way.

When she looked up again, there were teardrops as big as beans streaming down her face.

“Mo Mo, what’s wrong with you?” Li Xiangrong asked anxiously.

Regarding Tan Mo and Wei Keli, Li Xiangrong had made some calculations.

However, her friendship with Xu Mingzhen was sincere, and she had genuine affection for Tan Mo.

Her selfish calculations aside, Tan Mo was a beloved child.

After all, this was a child she had watched grow up ever since she’d been born.

At this time, her anxiety and concern were sincere.

“I…” Tan Mo sobbed as she said, “…I didn’t do well on the exam.”

“How come?” Xu Mingjing was also baffled.

Although the relationship between her and Xu Mingzhen had become a bit estranged over the years, it hadn’t reached the point where she couldn’t stand Tan Mo enjoying success.

She also envied Xu Mingzhen for having such a good life.

She’d married well, her children were outstanding, and Tan Mo was even able to skip grades.

She never expected that Tan Mo would do badly on the college entrance examination.

“I bombed the last exam.” Tan Mo acted as if she was becoming more and more sad when she thought about it. She stopped sobbing and cried out loudly. “I couldn’t concentrate on answering the questions and answered the questions randomly. The last questions I couldn’t even finish. I had to hand in the exam ahead of time.”

“Why is that?” Li Xiangrong looked at Tan Mo anxiously, then at Xu Mingzhen. “Mo Mo has always done very well, and she always gets the first place in the Jixia Academy. I have never worried about Mo Mo’s college entrance examinations. How come you suddenly couldn’t concentrate during the exam?”

“Because Keqing…,” Tan Mo cried and said.

Yuan Keqing’s expression changed. Was Tan Mo going to say it?

Butler Zhou had clearly sent someone to warn her not to spread word about Wei Zhiqian’s injury.

Her only purpose had been to sabotage Tan Mo’s exam. That was the only reason why she had done it.

Since Butler Zhou had warned her, she’d immediately agreed. She’d kept her mouth shut and didn’t say anything.

But now, Tan Mo actually wanted to say it?

How could she dare to?

The Wei family attached so much importance to this matter at this time, and no matter how much they like Tan Mo, they wouldn’t allow Tan Mo to sabotage their plan, right?

Moreover, if Tan Mo does something so stupid, will the Wei family continue to like Tan Mo in the future?

She knew that Xu Mingzhen must know what she had done.

But she doesn’t care. She just came to see Tan Mo make a fool of herself.

The relationship between them and Xu Mingzhen has become much worse than before.

While thinking about all of this, she heard Tan Mo say, “Because Keqing called me before the exam, and as I was worried that it could be something serious, I answered the call. Then she told me that my Little Uncle was injured very badly and was on the brink of death.

“My Little Uncle has doted on me so much ever since I was a child. After I heard this news, how could I still take the exam with peace of mind? While answering the questions, all I could think about was my Little Uncle’s serious injury. What would I do if I couldn’t see him anymore…”

In the car, Wei Zhiqian’s eyes twitched.

This girl dares to say anything!

However, Tan Mo might have really thought about this at the time.

That’s why she’d hurriedly handed in the exam and run out, just to be able to see him as soon as possible.

Thinking of this, Wei Zhiqian’s heart felt warm as well as distressed.

This silly girl.

Despite knowing that Yuan Keqing probably exaggerated and lied to her, she still turned in the exam ahead of time.

Her compassion was so sincere.

As for Tan Mo revealing his injury, it didn’t matter.

The Wei family was no longer keeping it a secret anyway.

Moreover, Wei Zhiqian kept feeling that Tan Mo had another trick up her sleeve, and she wouldn’t reveal word of his injury that easily if she didn’t have an ulterior motive.

“I was so worried that I didn’t even bother to answer the questions,” Tan Mo cried and continued. “I thought that even if I had all the time in the world, I wouldn’t be able to answer many questions, so I just stopped answering and handed in the exam in advance.”

Tan Mo cried very convincingly and miserably.

Even the Tan family’s three brothers and Xu Mingzhen couldn’t help but feel worried about her.

Could it be that when Tan Mo said before that she had completed the exam and checked the questions before handing it in had been only to comfort them?

The expressions of all four of them became anxious and sad.

When Yuan Keqing saw this, she was delighted.

Tan Mo might know how to put on a show, but the expressions of Xu Mingzhen and the three brothers of the Tan family couldn’t be faked.

They have always cared about Tan Mo very deeply.

Now Yuan Keqing finally felt assured.

Tan Mo will have to repeat the grade or go to another school.

No matter what, she can’t get into Beijing University.

“I bombed on my last exam, so my grades will probably be very poor,” Tan Mo cried as she said. “I originally wanted to apply to Beijing University, but now I don’t know what to do. Maybe I will need to repeat the grade.”
