Top-notch Master Masquerading As Cannon Fodder Female Companion

Chapter 277: Bluffing?

“I thought that Tan Mo would be similar to the stereotype I have of geniuses. Good at their studies, good at using their brains, but their personality would either be proud, inflexible, or boring. But Tan Mo is great at bluffing.”

“The genius who is best at bluffing in history?”

Tan Mo saw these comments and even thought of reporting them.

What were these netizens saying?

How was she good at bluffing?

She was so kind and had never bluffed anyone.

Tan Mo was very worried now. Was it impossible to change this image?

Tan Mo quickly asked her parents and older brothers, “Am I very good at bluffing?”

“How can that be? Our Mo Mo never bluffed anyone,” Tan Jinsheng answered without hesitation.

The others expressed their agreement with his comment, one after another.

Tan Mo tapped into the WeChat group she had with Professor Guo’s team, “You guys, am I very good at bluffing?”

The group: “???”

Ying Siyuan answered, “Since when have you been able to bluff? Don’t you do the things you promise? This is not called bluffing. This is called doing right.”

Wang Yuemu agreed, “That’s absolutely right. You are obviously so honest.”

The others expressed their agreement one after another.

Tan Mo again asked the question, this time to Professor Zhao’s team.

Zhong Liusi said, “Tan Mo, who are you being bluffed by? Why are you asking this kind of question?”

Yu Jianan was annoyed and she said, “Let me tell you. Whoever told you that is lying to you.”

The others expressed their agreement one after another.

Tan Mo exited the chat with satisfaction.

If only her family had said that, she would still feel that that was because family is not sufficiently objective.

However, all her upperclassmen said the same thing. Tan Mo was relieved.

It must be that those netizens did not know her enough.

Everyone had misunderstood her.

The netizens could not hold back their curiosity and went to search for more matters regarding Tan Mo.

In the end, the more they knew, they more they admired Tan Mo.

Those who believed Tan Mo had relied on her connections or her background became a smaller and smaller group.

The official Weibo account of Beijing University posted another message: “Do you want to interact with Tan Mo close up? Do you want to be one of Tan Mo’s underclassman? Do you want to learn with Tan Mo, research with her, and communicate with her? Beijing University welcomes you!”

The comments below Beijing University’s message were fairly similar.

Some students of Beijing University said:

“I am proud of Beijing University.”

“I am proud to be from Beijing University.”

There were also netizens who may or may not have scored enough to enter Beijing University but were at least good at making claims.

“I want to enroll in Beijing University.”

“I have suddenly lost interest in Tsinghua University.”

“How can Tsinghua University be as good as Beijing University?”

However, it could not be denied that the search volume for Beijing University tonight had been rapidly increasing at an alarming speed.

It left Tsinghua University a far distance behind.

…

Tan Mo was originally very famous at Beijing University.

This was because the Tulip Awards were popular among the students.

Even if they did not have the time to watch the live airing, they could still follow the award results online.

Now, Tan Mo got even more famous at Beijing University.

In the past, there were also many students from other majors who had only heard of Tan Mo’s name but were not sure what Tan Mo looked like.

There had been first the live airing of the Ancient Text Competition and now there was the live airing of the Tulip Awards.

Now, there was no one who did not know Tan Mo at Beijing University.

After the live airing of the Tulip Awards ceremony and the popular searches on Weibo, everyone remembered Tan Mo’s face clearly.

As to what the netizens said:

How can there be a girl who was so intelligent, with an extremely high IQ, who was so pretty, and even came from a rich family?

This must be a favored child of the heavens, who had gathered all these advantages to herself.

Originally, people such as the other students of the Finance Department didn’t know that Tan Mo came from a rich family.

However, they did not know clearly what Tan Mo’s family business was.

After what had happened yesterday, the netizens followed the clues to further investigate.

Then they found out that Tan Mo was the daughter of the head of TanYue.

What was TanYue’s business about?

“Legend of Wei and Jin”‘s largest investor, which could replenish the investment amount withdrawn by Journey Films in a flash without batting an eye.

Would you not agree that that was incredible!

However, even if they found this out, no one felt that Tan Mo’s achievements of winning the award or of being a scriptwriter was because of TanYue.

It was all due to Tan Mo’s own capabilities!

…

One late morning on a Friday…

Tan Mo and Ming Yeqing didn’t have classes in the afternoon. Thus, they thought of going to Qin Muye’s together.

Qin Muye was going to be taking her college entrance examination this year. Both of them wanted to see Qin Muye’s revision progress.

At the same time, Ming Yeqing could point out the main points for Qin Muye.

Tan Mo understands herself. She in fact took advantage of her good memory.

Ming Yeqing, on the other hand, was the real straight A student.

He did not have her exceptional memory, but he still entered Beijing University at the age of 15.

He even joined the research team of Professor Yue, who was extremely famous in the engineering field of aviation and aerospace.

Thus, with Ming Yeqing helping Qin Muye with the main points, Qin Muye probably could spend less effort in her revision.

Of course, Qin Mufeng could do the same thing but he was still attending school overseas, and would only graduate and return this summer.

Qin Mufeng was very out of touch with the college entrance examination.

It was possible that Qin Mufeng might not understand the examination questions nowadays.

Tan Mo thus headed toward the building where Ming Yeqing was, intending to leave school with him.

Tan Mo doesn’t go to this building often.

However, when Tan Mo arrived, Ming Yeqing’s research group weren’t quite finished..

This research group was not Professor Yue’s research team.

There was homework from Ming Yeqing’s course, and the class had split into small groups and had students working together to complete the questions.

The class had ended.

However, there were still a few learning groups that stayed behind to continue working on the questions.

Tan Mo peeked her head inside from the entrance of the classroom.

Ming Yeqing saw her and walked to the door. “We were done with class, but there are still a bit of calculations left. We planned to finish up before leaving to avoid losing the flow when we return next week. It is actually recess now, come in and wait.”

“Is that all right? Would your other classmates mind?” Tan Mo remained at the door and asked considerately.

“There is no problem.” Ming Yeqing smiled.

Tan Mo believed in Ming Yeqing’s judgment and followed him inside.

“Eh?” A classmate of Ming Yeqing’s noticed Tan Mo. “Isn’t this Tan Mo? I saw you on television!”

Tan Mo laughed in embarrassment. “I am Tan Mo and I am here to wait for Ming Yeqing. May I wait inside?”

“Of course you can.” Everyone laughed.

They then made flirty gestures. “Yeqing, are you two…?”

“She is a good friend of mine. Don’t make wild guesses, you will annoy me and you could get me in trouble,” Ming Yeqing waved his hands and explained.

If this had been heard by Wei Zhiqian…

He thought of how Wei Zhiqian had looked at him, and a chill went down his spine.

Tan Mo didn’t know what Ming Yeqing was thinking, and she found it odd. Was she that scary?

Even if they were misunderstood by others, she had never said that she would do anything to him.

The other students laughed, and who knew if they believed him or not.

“Feel free to look around,” Ming Yeqing said to Tan Mo. “There are no experimental tools, thus there is nothing that you cannot touch. Just make sure not to erase the question on that small blackboard. That was left to us by Professor Yue to test us, to see which one of us could solve it.”
