Xu Mingzhen immediately lowered her voice and said cautiously, “I didn’t tell anyone about Young Master Wei’s injury, including my husband and Mo Mo’s brothers.”
Butler Zhou nodded in appreciation. It was obvious that Xu Mingzhen understood the situation just from her words.
No wonder the Tan family was so stable.
Although it was not a top-tier family, it was still developing steadily.
After all, the Tan family’s roots were too shallow, and it was not easy to develop to where they were today.
Tan Wenci had a wife who was very clear-headed.
“If you hide it from Mr. Tan, it may affect your relationship. Mr. Wei trusts you, and he also trusts your husband and the young masters.”
What Butler Zhou said made Xu Mingzhen even more cautious.
Xu Mingzhen clasped her hands together in front of her and said more solemnly, “Don’t worry, my husband and sons won’t tell anyone.”
Xu Mingzhen thought about it and saw that Wei Zhiqian was seriously injured, so Tan Mo must be worried and wanted to come over to check on him.
She was coming over, and she couldn’t hide it from all the men in the family who valued Tan Mo.
She definitely needed to explain it to them.
Therefore, the fact that Wei Zhiqian was injured could not be concealed, at least in their family.
Butler Zhou had no objection to her telling her family, which made Xu Mingzhen feel relieved. She decided in her heart that she must warn her family well and never tell anyone.
“My uncle was injured at the border, so along the way…” Tan Mo asked again.
“We performed first aid over there, but the medical facilities there were limited, and it was not our own place after all, so safety could not be guaranteed. So we were accompanied by a trusted doctor and quickly returned on a private plane.” Butler Zhou explained.
At this time, the elevator reached the top floor.
In order to ensure that the news of Wei Zhiqian’s injury would not spread, they specially chose the operating room on the top floor, and even the ward was chosen in the top floor area.
A private area had been specially isolated and no one was allowed to enter at will.
Tan Mo and Xu Mingzhen followed Butler Zhou to the door of the operating room.
As expected, only the two elders of the Wei family and Wei Mingwen and his wife were there.
“Great-grandfather, great-grandma. Grandpa, grandma.” In these 9 years, Tan Mo had become so familiar with the two elders and Wei Mingwen and his wife that she was like half a member of the Wei family.
Therefore, calling them by these names felt particularly intimate.
Because of Wei Zhiqian’s insistence, Tan Mo could only call Wei Mingwen and his wife grandpa and grandma.
Fortunately, Wei Mingwen and his wife did not have much contact with Tan Wenci and his wife, so there was no embarrassment.
But now that they met, Xu Mingzhen suddenly felt like a generation younger than Wei Mingwen and his wife, and both sides were extremely embarrassed.
Xiao Menghan quickly stood up and held Xu Mingzhen’s hand: “It’s all my kid’s fault. He insisted that Mo Mo call him uncle. All of a sudden, the seniority is messed up. Mo Mo calls Qin Mufeng uncle, but she and Muye are good sisters, so they are separate. Let’s also talk about our own affairs and don’t worry about their messed up seniority.”
Xu Mingzhen breathed a sigh of relief: “Okay. How is Zhiqian doing now? Did the nurse come out to tell about him?”
“Not yet.” Xiao Menghan sighed heavily, “But the doctor said that there are no injuries to the vital parts, so there should be no problem.”
When the old lady saw Tan Mo, she hurriedly pulled her over and asked, “Why are you here? Did Butler Zhou tell you?”
Tan Mo had no intention of letting the old lady know about the little things going on in their family.
Who was Yuan Keqing? Was she worthy of the old lady’s attention?
Telling this to the old lady would be just giving face to Yuan Keqing.
Before Tan Mo could come up with an excuse, Butler Zhou told the truth: “It was a cousin of Miss Mo Mo. She was always jealous of Miss Mo Mo and couldn’t stand seeing Miss Mo Mo doing well. She wanted to sabotage Miss Mo Mo’s college entrance examination. This time, I was not considerate enough. I let Yuan Keqing hear about Young Master Wei’s injury and she told Miss Mo Mo before the last exam.”
When the old lady heard this, she was immediately shocked and said, “Yes, look at me. I was distracted by Zhiqian’s injury and forgot that today was your last day of the college entrance examination.”
The old lady glanced at the time and said, “Normally you shouldn’t be here so soon. The exam just ended not long ago.”
“It was Miss Mo Mo who quickly finished answering the questions and handed in the paper ahead of time after learning that Master Wei was injured.” Butler Zhou greatly gained a wave of favour for Tan Mo.
It was really Tan Mo’s action that really touched Butler Zhou.
How could he not let the elders of the Wei family know about this?
“This…” Wei Mingwen and Xiao Menghan were both shocked and looked apologetic.
“This is all because of Mo Mo’s feelings for Zhiqian.” Xu Mingzhen advised, “Please don’t feel sorry. Zhiqian is still injured now. You are already worried enough. Please don’t add to your worries.”
“Besides, if we really want to blame someone, we can only blame Mo Mo’s cousin. She just wanted to mess up Mo Mo’s mind and didn’t want Mo Mo to take the exam well.”
The old lady hit Tan Mo on the arm as if she was hitting her own child: “You kid! The college entrance examination is such an important thing, how could you take it so lightly! It will be the same if you wait until the exam is over!”
“Grandma, please don’t be angry.” Tan Mo hurriedly helped the old lady to calm down, and secretly transferred some energy to her to help her eliminate the irritability and depression caused by worrying about Wei Zhiqian.
“I came out after the exam. Although I handed in the paper early, I have answered all the questions and checked them once. Have you forgotten how smart I am? This exam was not difficult for me at all. Handing in the paper early will not affect my grades.” Tan Mo persuaded, “Besides, instead of worrying about my uncle while answering the questions, it is better to concentrate and answer all the questions as quickly as possible. I will hand in the paper and come out quickly.”
The old lady’s temper had long been soothed by the energy transmitted by Tan Mo, and she was no longer angry at this moment.
“Good child.” The old lady slowly stroked Tan Mo’s hair.
It could be seen that Tan Mo was really anxious.
In order to make it easier to answer the questions, she tied her hair into a ponytail, but it became messy due to my anxiety along the way, and a lot of hair fell out.
The old lady couldn’t hide her emotion.
They had all seen how good Wei Zhiqian had been to Tan Mo over the years.
Wei Zhiqian’s love for Tan Mo was not in vain though.
Tan Mo took the opportunity to comfort them and subtly transferred all her energy to the old man and Wei Mingwen and his wife.
Let their mood gradually calm down.
Xu Mingzhen suddenly thought of a question and quietly went to find Butler Zhou: “Butler Zhou, I just thought of a question. Yuan Keqing overheard our conversation, so she also knew that Zhiqian was injured. Will she…”
Xu Mingzhen explained further: “She has always had a good relationship with Wei Keli.”
“Don’t worry, I have asked someone to keep an eye on her. She won’t have the chance to say anything.” Butler Zhou smiled slightly. She didn’t know when he had already arranged everything.
