Qin Mufeng didn’t want to say anything.
As for Wei Zhiqian, he was no longer single, so he had nothing to fear. The only thing he wanted to do was show off.
However, Wei Zhiqian was still not satisfied enough. It was not easy for him to get this opportunity, so he had to keep showing off.
Back in the days when Wei Zhiqian was still single, he found his daily life torture. Other than Qin Mufeng, all his friends would show off their girlfriends in front of him, especially when they had just confirmed their relationship. That was the most exciting time for them. They just couldn’t stop showing off and even invited their friends to the group chat to share their good news with them. They talked about what they did with their girlfriends or what their girlfriends did for them, every day. Of course, after such a long time, “girlfriends” had turned into “wives”.
For example, Zhao Gushen’s wife, Ye Fei, was a top chef. Before that, she was also a food blogger. She had incredible culinary skills! Therefore, she prepared all kinds of meals for her husband every day as his lunches and snacks. She said she just wanted to make sure that when Zhao Gushen was in the company during the day, there was something for him to eat whenever he was hungry.
All the snacks were made by Ye Fei herself. She could even make lots of Chinese desserts, such as Snow Crisp, Mung Bean Cake, Beef Tongue Cake, and all kinds of jerky and dried fish. As long as one could name it, Ye Fei could make it a dish, even if it was a recipe one read from an ancient book. All those dishes were so exquisite that they just looked like paintings.
Zhao Gushen took photos of those dishes and sent them to the group chat every day. He would send messages like “my girlfriend made this for me” or “my girlfriend told me she was afraid that I got hungry in the company, so she made these snacks for me” or “I’m the luckiest man in the world to enjoy the dishes my girlfriend makes for me”, which made Wei Zhiqian jealous.
Wei Zhiqian had longed to experience the joy of showing off for a long time. Now, he finally got the chance!
Although Zhao Gushen wasn’t around, it didn’t matter. He could show off to Qin Mufeng first.
As a married man, Chu Zhaoyang wouldn’t be irritated by him. After all, his wife was here, too. She was chatting with Ming Yutong at this moment. If he felt made fun of by Wei Zhiqian, he would seek comfort from his wife, and everything would be just okay.
As for Qin Mufeng, a bachelor, he must be quite irritated now.
“Mufeng.” Wei Zhiqian suddenly said to Qin Mufeng in the tone of an elder as he patted Qin Mufeng’s shoulder, “You should learn from Zhaoyang. He is not good at expressing himself. Neither does he know how to make girls happy. He would rather keep silent a whole day. But you see, even he can get married. You, a young man who is good at making eloquent speeches, have to do something to catch up with him.” Wei Zhiqian was talking as if he was saying, “If you fall behind, you’ll be a loser.” From his tedious preaching, Qin Mufeng could tell that he was just making fun of him.
Qin Mufeng curled his lips in disdain, “Enough, don’t be so mean, OK? Have you forgotten that you didn’t even realize that you fell in love with that girl? If I didn’t remind you, would you have realized what you were thinking? You should be grateful to me.”
Qin Mufeng didn’t want to be taken advantage of by Wei Zhiqian anymore. He turned to Chu Zhaoyang and said, “Zhaoyang, let me tell you an interesting story. Since Tan Mo came of age, this guy had fixed his eyes on her all day long. He didn’t allow other boys to get close to her. If anyone wanted to pursue Tan Mo, he would investigate their family background thoroughly. He belittled every boy who wanted to pursue her. There wasn’t a single man he was satisfied with. You know what? He was just a picky guy. Even if there’s nothing wrong with others, he will point out some mistakes they have made. At that time, there was a boy, who was so perfect that he couldn’t figure out a reasonable excuse. That boy had good grades at school, and he studied hard. He came from a rich family. Also, he was handsome and polite. He knew how to communicate with different people. In fact, he was one of the best boys of his age. But do you know what excuse Wei Zhiqian used?”
Qin Mufeng sneered and said in a sarcastic tone of voice, “He complained that there was a pimple on that boy’s chin, and that was not perfect!”
Chu Zhaoyang always maintained a poker face, but at this moment, a crease formed between his eyes. “That doesn’t make sense,” said Chu Zhaoyang.
Qin Mufeng smiled at Wei Zhiqian in triumph, “Apparently, you think you are the best man in this world. It’s just because you fall in love with Tan Mo, but you didn’t realize it at all. You should be grateful to me. If I didn’t remind you, how could you follow your heart so quickly? And now, you are showing off your girlfriend in front of me?”
Qin Mufeng rolled his eyes at Wei Zhiqian. “Come on, how could you be so mean to me, your best friend? Thanks to my reminder, you discovered that you fell in love with Tan Mo and changed your attitude towards her. Zhaoyang, don’t you think I am their matchmaker? Otherwise, he is still her uncle right now!”
Chu Zhaoyang nodded. “Yeah, that’s for sure. Qianzi, don’t be so mean.”
Hearing Chu Zhaoyang speak for him, Qin Mufeng sighed. “Among all of my friends, Zhaoyang is the most honest man.” Since the others were not around, it would be just fine for him to say that.
Wei Zhiqian cracked a mischievous smile. He had secretly turned on his phone and recorded Qin Mufeng’s words. He planned to send them to Zhao Gushen and the others. After all, they were all narrow-minded, and they would teach him a lesson.
Chu Zhaoyang, who had just been praised by Qin Mufeng, was now looking at Qin Mufeng as if he was an elder.
A sense of foreboding took Qin Mufeng’s heart. Chu Zhaoyang’s gaze was the same as Wei Zhiqian’s when Wei Zhiqian was showing off to him! Then, he heard Chu Zhaoyang say, “But you do need to find a girlfriend.”
Chu Zhaoyang paused for a little while and said, “Qianzi already has a girlfriend. You’re the only one left.”
Qin Mufeng was speechless.
Chu Zhaoyang leaned closer to Qin Mufeng and said, “If you find it hard to find a girlfriend, maybe you can select a little girl, and wait for her to grow into a woman?”
Qin Mufeng didn’t know how to reply.
Chu Zhaoyang seemed to be better at talking with others now.
A little girl? How could it be possible? In Qin Mufeng’s opinion, he was not as shameless as Wei Zhiqian, who did find himself a wife like raising a child.
“No, it’s too late for him to raise a little girl now.” Wei Zhiqian shook his head triumphantly and looked at Qin Mufeng in disdain. “He’s just too old.”
Qin Mufeng kept silent. They had similar ages. How could he have the guts to look down on his old age?
Qin Mufeng curled his lips and voiced out bluntly. “Do the elders of the Tan family think that you’re too old?” He knew that was why Wei Zhiqian made fun of his age.
Wei Zhiqian said stubbornly, “Actually, I’m not that old. It’s just because Momo has called me her uncle for so many years, and gave people the wrong impression that the age difference between us is very big.”
Hearing this, both Qin Mufeng and Chu Zhaoyang kept silent. It seemed Wei Zhiqian thought they were so stupid that they would believe his lies.
Wei Zhiqian lowered his head and pressed the buttons on the screen of his cellphone.
Qin Mufeng and Chu Zhaoyang didn’t know what he doing. A moment later, their phones beeped.
Qin Mufeng and Chu Zhaoyang were speechless. Now they knew what Wei Zhiqian was doing just now. As soon as Wei Zhiqian made his relationship with Tan Mo public, he invited her to the group chat immediately..
