Top-notch Master Masquerading As Cannon Fodder Female Companion

Chapter 222: My Waist Is Slim

She was a beautiful girl.

She was worried that her image could be ruined if Wei Zhiqian rubbed her belly.

HMPH! Wei Zhiqian scoffed in disdain. “Most women just suck their bellies in. Once they relax, their tummies become so plump.”

Wei Zhiqian gestured as he spoke.

“How does Uncle know this?” Tan Mo moved her hands away from the keyboard. She turned around and asked, “Have you rubbed the tummies of other girls?”

Tan Mo seemed quite upset.

Wei Zhiqian: “…”

“I haven’t!” Wei Zhiqian felt quite wronged.

It was almost as though he had been caught having an extramarital affair.

At that moment, his mind flashed back to her childhood days. Tan Mo had grabbed his face once and asked him if he had another little dumpling apart from her.

“Then how does uncle know?” Tan Mo wasn’t someone who was easily fooled. She wasn’t going to let go of this so easily.

“That’s what Han Zhuoli told me,” Wei Zhiqian explained. “You must be aware that the Han Empire controls the biggest movie company in our country. He is constantly graced by the presence of female celebrities. I asked him if their figures were really that perfect. He told me that they usually suck their bellies in when they are out in public.”

Wei Zhiqian ruthlessly pushed the blame onto Han Zhuoli.

In actuality, Han Zhuoli hadn’t told him this.

Han Zhuoli certainly wouldn’t know about this.

He had only said that to appease Tan Mo. He didn’t want to be responsible if Tan Mo tried to diet and lose weight just like the female celebrities all did?

Tan Mo was already skinny enough.

“Uncle Han Zhuoli touched the tummies of female celebrities?” Tan Mo asked in shock.

Even though he had shifted the blame onto Han Zhuoli, Wei Zhiqian still had a conscience.

He didn’t want to ruin Han Zhuoli’s reputation completely. “No, probably not. Your uncle lives an honest life. He must have heard it from someone else.”

Tan Mo didn’t really care if Han Zhuoli had touched them or not.

She nodded her head and let the matter go.

Wei Zhiqian finally heaved a sigh of relief. Then he asked, “Are you envious of those people who wear clothes that expose their waists?”

Tan Mo felt that there was something Wei Zhiqian was trying to say that was coming out wrong.

“I’m not envious. I can pull it off too.” Tan Mo straightened her waist. She even took a deep breath to suck her tummy in. “My waist is pretty small.”

Wei Zhiqian nodded his head nonchalantly. “Right.”

Wei Zhiqian pondered for a moment. Then he looked at her waist closely.

It did appear quite slender.

Wei Zhiqian surreptitiously measured her waist with his hands behind his back.

It was actually very small.

“Really!” Tan Mo sensed that Wei Zhiqian didn’t appear convinced. She pressed her arms onto her waistline. “My tummy is a little bigger than usual today because I ate quite a lot. Normally my belly is flat. I don’t even have to suck it in!

“Even so, I wouldn’t wear clothes that reveal my waist.” She was a prim and proper young lady. Wouldn’t it be cheapening herself if the boys in her university ogled her?

Tan Mo had very fair skin. Her complexion was exceedingly beautiful.

“It’s bad for your health anyway.” Wei Zhiqian tried to sound more grown up. “If your tummy gets dirty or if it gets cold, you could get a stomachache.”

Tan Mo: “…”

“If girls don’t take good care of their bellies and protect them, they’ll be more prone to cramps during their periods,” Wei Zhiqian added.

Tan Mo: “…”

“Uncle, you’re a man. Where did you learn this from?” Tan Mo asked in bewilderment.

“Since I have a niece like you, I had to educate myself on these things. What if you fell ill due to a moment of carelessness?” Wei Zhiqian explained as though his words were completely rational. He didn’t think his actions were strange.

What’s more, he wasn’t even her biological uncle.

Even if he had been her biological uncle or even her father for that matter, few people would go to such an extent.

“You should have a good awareness of your health from the start. With a good foundation, it’ll be more comfortable for you in the future,” Wei Zhiqian went on. “I’ve done some research. Many girls fail to recognize the importance of such things early on. At the start, they never suffer from menstrual cramps. But once they didn’t take good care of themselves, they started to get cramps every month. Even finding a remedy is difficult.

When Wei Zhiqian saw Tan Mo’s lips twitch, he quickly spoke up before she could say anything, “I know you have healing abilities. But that doesn’t mean you should stop caring about your health. Even if you use your healing abilities, it will consume some of your energy. In order to heal one part of yourself, you’ll sacrifice another. It’s analogous to tearing down the east wall to rebuild the west wall. You’ll never be able to see the full results of your healing. Hence, you should start by staying vigilant and maintaining your health on a day-to-day basis.”

If Tan Mo didn’t reply soon, Wei Zhiqian would just keep on babbling.

“Understood.” Tan Mo had no choice but to heed his words. “I won’t expose my waist.”

Wei Zhiqian was finally satisfied. “You said it. You have to stay true to your word.”

Tan Mo pouted. “Uncle, you don’t believe me? Since when have I defaulted on my promises to you?”

“I got it.” Wei Zhiqian hastily quelled her brewing temper. “I have always believed in you.”

HARRUMPH!. She finally dropped the matter and continued writing.

All the historical records were already etched in her brain.

For this reason, Tan Mo didn’t need to waste time looking up resources.

Her productivity levels were many times higher than those of other people.

Before the computer arrived, Tan Mo had told Wei Zhiqian how urgent this scriptwriting task she was working on was.

So Tan Mo didn’t take any breaks. Wei Zhiqian didn’t keep nagging at her to take breaks either.

He knew that when things got busy, it would be unpleasant to have to hear someone nagging and telling them to take a break.

Imagine if the workload was too heavy and there was the possibility that you might not be able to complete it. And yet someone keeps asking you to stop working and rest.

That wouldn’t be considered being helpful.

“How much will you be able to write today?” Wei Zhiqian asked her.

“One episode a day for now.” Tan Mo’s eyes didn’t stray away from her screen. Her fingers continued to drum vigorously down on the keyboard.

Normally, an episode would entail about 10,000 words.

Whenever the camera panned on someone and the focus was on the small gestures made by the character, there wouldn’t be a need for a script. Hence, she wouldn’t need to write much for those scenes.

“Director Liu’s proposal consists of 80 episodes,” Tan Mo explained as she typed. She was able to multitask.

“Hence, no matter how hard I work, I won’t be able to complete all 80 episodes before school starts,” Tan Mo said. “I will probably be able to finish one to two episodes a day.

“School is starting in 12 days. I should be able to finish at least 20 chapters during this time so that Director Liu can start filming. Once I return to school, I’ll continue writing and submit every episode to him once I’m finished,” Tan Mo said. “Since I can complete more work now that I’m not in school, I am going to try to maintain a speed of one to two episodes a day. Once I return to school, I’ll have to juggle my schoolwork, as well as my research work. I’ll only be able to complete at most one episode a day.

“Even if I can write 80 episodes in this way, it’ll still take a long time.” Even if she churned out episodes at the rate of these first 20 scripts, it would still take her 60 days. That was two whole months.

However, this was honestly a conservative estimate on Tan Mo’s part.

If she had enough time once school started, she could write even more, with one episode a day being the minimum.
