Top-notch Master Masquerading As Cannon Fodder Female Companion

Chapter 34: You Can Only Choose One Between the Two

The course of the morning went well.

After class, Tan Mo went to find Qin Muye to play, so Qin Muxiao had no chance to find fault with her.

As for the courses, Tan Mo thought they were way too easy.

Jixia Academy’s courses were different from other schools, and the introductory courses were more advanced.

The ancient poems, classical Chinese, mathematics, physics, chemistry, and English textbooks were different from those of other schools; and the content was better.

Before the students of Jixia Academy started school, they had all kinds of courses arranged for them at home. They had finished all the courses of regular elementary school early and even touched upon some of the middle and high school materials as well.

Therefore, they were able to keep up with Jixia Academy’s curriculum.

If it were an ordinary child, they would be completely clueless.

This was also the reason Jixia Academy had strict requirements when accepting students.

Fortunately, Tan Mo wasn’t an ordinary child. As a little snow fairy, she was reincarnated with a thousand years’ worth of memory.

She used to be rooted from the ground and couldn’t go anywhere, so she was bored every day and could only listen to the master reading aloud.

All kinds of books from ancient times to present, from famous poems and articles to various formulas, the little snow fairy listened to the master read them aloud so many times that she could recite them all.

As for some formulas, though, she only memorized them and didn’t understand their meanings.

But now, combining the lectures and the explanations in the books, Tan Mo could understand them.

When the morning class ended, Wei Zhiqian went to the next class. He waited at the door for a while until Qin Mufeng came out.

Seeing him, Qin Mufeng froze, then said, “I’m going to find Muye first. This is her first day at school. I won’t be at ease unless I see her. You can go to the cafeteria first. I’ll be there a little later.”

“Oh, I’m going to the elementary school building too. Let’s go together.” Wei Zhiqian had expected that Qin Mufeng would definitely go to see Qin Muye first, so he waited in his classroom to go with him.

“I’m going to see my sister. Why are you going?” Qin Mufeng could guess why Wei Zhiqian was going.

“Is it because you have juniors?” Wei Zhiqian snorted at Qin Mufeng as they walked towards the elementary school building.

“Oh, Qin Muxiao?” Qin Mufeng said deliberately.

“Who is that?” Wei Zhiqian was confused. His playing dumb was very convincing.

Qin Mufeng complained, “With your acting skills, why don’t you consider going to a film academy in college, then show business?”

“Heh!” Wei Zhiqian ignored Qin Mufeng’s teasing. “I’m going to see that little girl Tan Mo. Now, there is a lot of snobbery among children, especially since all of them have prominent backgrounds and have probably learned it from their parents. They will be even more condescending. ”

He was going there to back her up.

“Are you really treating this little girl as your niece?” Qin Mufeng was surprised. They only met a few times.

“It’s rare to have a little girl who is pleasing to my eyes. Taking care of her is a matter of convenience.” Wei Zhiqian rubbed his palms. This wasn’t troublesome for him.

Tan Mo was packing up her textbooks when Ming Yeqing, her seatmate, greeted her. “You went out right after class. I haven’t had time to say hello to you.”

Tan Mo tilted her head, blinked, and smiled as she said, “You dare to talk to me?”

“Why won’t I dare to?” Ming Yeqing didn’t understand.

Tan Mo propped up her chin with one hand and said, “The others in the class dare not talk to me.”

Ming Yeqing chuckled. “You ran out after class, yet you still noticed that?”

“Of course, I did. I’m smart.” Tan Mo raised her chin proudly.

Who praised themselves so much?

It’s just that when Tan Mo boasted about herself, she didn’t appear annoying at all. On the contrary, she appeared very cute.

“We’re classmates, so why not talk?” Ming Yeqing was especially warm.

“Aren’t you afraid that they will isolate you when they see you talking to me?” Tan Mo narrowed her eyes.

Ming Yeqing caught it, but still said without hesitation, “I’m not afraid. I’d rather be isolated instead of acting like them.”

“Ming Yeqing, don’t talk to her!” Angry and willful, Qin Muxiao walked over.

As soon as Wei Keli arrived at the door, he heard Qin Muxiao’s shrill voice.

He came to see Tan Mo. He took Li Xiangrong’s advice to maintain a good relationship with Tan Mo.

However, he didn’t agree with Li Xiangrong’s concerns.

Li Xiangrong was worried that Tan Mo would be distant towards him.

But Wei Keli thought otherwise.

Tan Mo treated him the same as before, and she hadn’t changed.

Every time she saw him, she would greet him with a big smile on her face.

Since it was lunch break, Wei Keli didn’t have to wait at the door.

He was about to enter when he heard Qin Muxiao’s voice.

His right foot hesitantly retracted before it could step on the room.

He wanted to see the situation. If everyone was on Qin Muxiao’s side, then he couldn’t help Tan Mo this time.

Wei Keli saw Qin Muxiao staring at Ming Yeqing. “Associating with this kind of person lowers our level! Ming Yeqing, you stay away from her. She isn’t worthy.”

“We are classmates. What do you mean by worthy? I think Tan Mo is quite good. I am not from a prominent family either, so she can’t drag me down.” After Ming Yeqing finished speaking, he winked at Tan Mo.

Tan Mo felt that Ming Yeqing was much more reliable than Wei Keli.

“You!” Qin Muxiao stomped her feet angrily. “Ming Yeqing, there are so many people in our class. Why do you have to get involved with her? I thought you were good. I warned you!”

Ming Yeqing nodded, then said nonchalantly, “Thank you for the warning. We’re classmates. Involved isn’t the right word.”

“So you’re taking her side then?” Qin Muxiao asked sharply.

Ming Yeqing frowned and replied in disapproval, “Qin Muxiao, it’s normal not to like someone. If you don’t like Tan Mo, then don’t interact with her. However, there is no need to force others to ignore her just to please you.”

“What if I insist that you ignore her?” Qin Muxiao asked haughtily. “I think you’re good and treat you as my friend. But between me and Tan Mo, you can only choose one to be your friend.”

Qin Muxiao felt that Ming Yeqing was good enough to be her friend.

Waiting for Ming Yeqing’s answer, Qin Muxiao raised her chin proudly.

Smart people knew who to choose.

Qin Muxiao smiled at Tan Mo mockingly.

Without batting an eyelash, Ming Yeqing said, “Then I will choose Tan Mo.”

Seeing that Qin Muxiao was livid, Ming Yeqing went on, “Don’t get me wrong. You are fine, but I don’t think I deserve to be your friend.”

Tan Mo didn’t know what to say.

It was better not to speak at this moment.

Qin Muxiao pointed to Tan Mo and said loudly, “Anyone who wants to be friends with Tan Mo can stand over there! But I’m putting the word out. Being friends with Tan Mo, and even if you just say a word to her, is going against me and looking down on me, Qin Muxiao.”

“What good is there looking up to you?” Tilting her head, Tan Mo asked.

Qin Muxiao got more furious upon hearing this. “What did you say?”
