Top-notch Master Masquerading As Cannon Fodder Female Companion

Chapter 185: What the H*ll

The dark-red color of the sour plum juice hid the beer in Tan Mo’s glass.

The liquid inside her glass was still dark in color.

When she took a sniff, she realized the sweetness of the juice had covered the malty scent of the beer.

She had always wanted to try and see what beer tasted like, but Wang Yuemu and the rest of the team had never allowed her to try it.

That was why she had to resort to another method.

Tan Mo took a sip of her drink and realized that there was an additional bitterness to the sweet and sour juice.

Naturally, the bitterness came from the beer that she’d just added.

Tan Mo licked her lips as she tried to experience the flavor of the beer.

However, she couldn’t really tell what was so special about it and took another sip.

She continued taking sip after sip until her glass of sour plum juice and beer was empty.

She began to feel tipsy although she had only consumed half a glass of beer.

Her world was starting to spin. When the others tried to talk to her, her response would be delayed a little.

Wang Yuemu quickly noticed that something was off when she saw that Tan Mo’s eyes weren’t focusing.

That’s weird… We didn’t even give her any alcohol.

She then checked to see if Tan Mo was hiding a glass of beer anywhere, only to notice that her glass, which should have been just in front of her, had been moved to the side.

She raised her glass suspiciously, and, just as she had expected, it was lighter than she remembered. With just one glance, she could tell that the formerly full glass was half-gone.

“You rascal! Did you pour my beer into your glass?” Wang Yuemu scolded her. “Tan Mo, did you just drink some beer?”

“Hmm?” Tan Mo’s cheeks were now completely red. Even her response was so slow that it took her a whole second before she nodded yes.

“How much did you drink?” Wang Yuemu sighed.

Tan Mo raised her glass and smiled like an idiot. “I mixed it with my sour plum juice… I think it was about half a glass…?”

Pu Xinyan slapped her own forehead dramatically. “Half a glass, and you’re this drunk?”

Wang Yuemu quickly filled Tan Mo’s glass with sour plum juice. “Seriously, you are forbidden to drink any alcohol if that’s all you can handle. Hurry up and finish the juice!”

Tan Mo obediently took the glass of juice from Wang Yuemu. However, after taking a sip, she put the glass down and pushed it away.

Just as Wang Yuemu was about to force Tan Mo to drink more of the juice, Tan Mo picked her phone up from the table, found Wei Zhiqian’s WeChat ID, and called him.

At that time, Wei Zhiqian was on his way to Beijing University.

He had his Bluetooth earbud in his right ear, and his phone was set up on the phone holder.

The moment he saw the call was from Tan Mo, he picked it up right away.

Before he could even say anything, Tan Mo spoke softly through the phone. “Uncle, didn’t you say you were coming to pick me up tonight? Where are you? Were you lying to me?”

“I’m sorry. I’m on my way now.” Wei Zhiqian apologized. “What’s wrong with your voice?”

Wei Zhiqian could tell that Tan Mo sounded different. She sounded clingy, which was unlike her usual self.

“Me? I’m not at the campus now…” It was a miracle that Tan Mo could tell where she was.

Wei Zhiqian almost choked when he heard that.

This little… How dare she blame me for not picking her up when she’s not even on the campus?

“Did you head home?” Wei Zhiqian thought she might have returned home since it was a Friday night.

“Nope… I’m having a celebration with my seniors.” Tan Mo giggled. “They are treating little Tan Mo to dinner for winning the competition.”

Little Tan Mo? What the h*ll?

Wei Zhiqian almost choked for the second time as Tan Mo had never spoken in such a manner, not even when she was still a six-year-old little girl.

He let out a sigh and asked, “Where are you guys celebrating?”

“At a hotpot restaurant!”

The longer the call went on, the more Wei Zhiqian could tell something was off with Tan Mo.

“What’s the name of the hotpot restaurant?” Wei Zhiqian patiently asked.

If it had been another person on the other end of the phone, Wei Zhiqian would’ve exploded in anger by now.

“Hmm…” Tan Mo tried her best to recall the name of the restaurant, but couldn’t. “That’s weird…I’m usually good at remembering names… Why can’t I remember the name of this restaurant?”

Tan Mo frowned, but no matter how hard she tried, she just couldn’t find the name of the restaurant.

In spite of not being able to hear the conversation, Wang Yuemu could tell that Tan Mo couldn’t remember what the restaurant was. She leaned over and told Tan Mo the name.

“That’s right!” Tan Mo exclaimed. “That’s the name!”

Wei Zhiqian was now completely speechless.

So, what’s the name?

Ying Siyuan quickly deduced that Wei Zhiqian was on his way to pick Tan Mo up. “Tan Mo, let me talk to Young Master Wei.”

Tan Mo obediently passed her phone to Ying Siyuan. She coughed before placing the phone to her ear and said, “Young Master Wei? We are at Shuyuni Hotpot. I’ll send the location to you with Tan Mo’s phone.”

“Got it. Thanks.”

It only took a few seconds for Wei Zhiqian to receive the location sent by Ying Siyuan. He quickly opened the map and drove to the restaurant.

When Wei Zhiqian entered the Beijing University team’s room, the first person he spotted was Tan Mo, who was sitting opposite the door.

Tan Mo also noticed him as soon as the door opened.

“Uncle!” The little girl threw her arms wide open as she remained seated.

Wei Zhiqian frowned as he walked over to her and noticed the slight glow on her cheeks. He then turned around and noticed everyone had a glass of beer in front of them.

“Did you guys let her drink?” Wei Zhiqian asked.

Did you guys let a 15-year-old girl drink alcohol?

“We ordered a glass of sour plum juice for her,” Wang Yue explained apologetically. “I was careless, and she snuck half a glass of my beer into her own glass…”

“Just half a glass?” Wei Zhiqian turned to look at Tan Mo. Just half a glass, and she’s this drunk?

Chen Shihua and the others quickly nodded. “She only drank half a glass. There’s no way we would let a kid like her drink beer.”

Tan Mo nodded obediently. “I only drank half a glass!”

In spite of feeling bad for not noticing, Wang Yuemu still couldn’t help but laugh at Tan Mo’s expression now. “When we noticed that she had actually drunk some beer, she was already like this. She even admitted to adding my beer into her glass of sour plum juice.”

“I am not lying!” Tan Mo nodded again.

“I see…” Wei Zhiqian sighed. “Then I’ll take her home.”

“Okay.” Everyone nodded.

The rest of the team could not believe how things had turned out in the end.

They were supposed to be celebrating happily, but the celebration resulted in Tan Mo, an underaged girl, getting drunk.

Even though Tan Mo was the one who snuck herself a drink, it didn’t mean they didn’t have to take responsibility for it.

Fortunately, Wei Zhiqian wasn’t an irrational person.

Since Tan Mo did it to herself, he wasn’t going to blame it on another person.

“Don’t worry. I will educate her properly once she sobers up,” Wei Zhiqian said.

Everyone turned to look at him, not believing a word the man had just said.

The reason was that it was basically impossible for Wei Zhiqian to get angry at the cute young girl.
