Before Li Xiangrong and Wei Zhijian could say anything else, Tan Mo said, “Aunt, even if you want to blame him, shouldn’t you listen to what Brother Zhiqian and I have to say first? We haven’t said anything yet, and you’re already pushing all the responsibility onto us. Isn’t that inappropriate?”
“Forget about me. Even if you don’t fully know brother Zhiqian while he’s in the Wei family, you should know that he never does things for no reason,” Tan Mo said coldly. “If you don’t even have this basic trust in the patriarch, then how are you going to follow in his footsteps and advance with the Wei family in the future?”
Li Xiangrong had never known that Tan Mo was so good with words.
“Even if the police wants to catch the criminal for convicting a crime, they still have to go through court. When a judge decides a case, they also have to listen to the testimony of both the plaintiff and the defendant,” Tan Mo said. “You only saw Keli cry, yet you blame brother Zhiqian without thinking of the different possibilities.”
Tan Mo’s eyes were filled with disdain. “A child can get what they want by crying. But Keili is already twenty-three, and he’ll turn 24 soon. He’s not a child anymore. That crying thing doesn’t work with him.”
Li Xiangrong stood up abruptly.
She had never thought that the once obedient child would now stand in front of her and say such words!
“You really think of yourself as Keli’s aunt now, don’t you?” Li Xiangrong said coldly. “You used to call him Brother Keli, but now it’s just Keli. From your words, you already think of him as your junior.”
She was even mocking Wei Keli!

Tan Mo smiled. “I used to call Brother Zhiqian uncle, but I’ve changed what I call him to Brother Zhiqian, didn’t I?”
“Since the relationship and seniority have changed, then the way you address him naturally has to change. It’s better to get used to it early.” Tan Mo’s face was cold.
Tan Mo knew what Li Xiangrong was trying to get at.
Li Xiangrong deliberately used the way she addressed Wei Keli in the past.
It reminded people of her childhood friendship with Wei Keli and Li Xiangrong’s plan to let Wei Keli marry her.
It would have been fine if they were by themselves.
But now, the old folks, Wei Mingwen and Xiao Menghan, were also present at the moment.
They were all elders who loved and protected Wei Zhiqian.
Fortunately, these four people weren’t easily provoked. Otherwise, as long as they were suspicious of her relationship with Wei Keli, they wouldn’t want her to be with Wei Zhiqian.
Li Xiangrong had already reached the point where she couldn’t bear to see her and Wei Zhiqian together. She wanted to sow discord between them.
“Let’s get back to the main topic.” Tan Mo took the initiative to bring the topic back. “If you ask me, Wei Keli deserves to be beaten and scolded!”

“When I came out of the bathroom just now, he actually dared to stop me at the door. He even scolded us for being cuckolded in front of Brother Zhiqian and pointed at my nose and said that I was dirty!” Tan Mo said loudly.
She knew that if it were Wei Zhiqian who was standing here, he would definitely not say the same things as she just did. He would not say anything that offended her. Therefore, Tan Mo decided to say it herself. She didn’t really care.
She just couldn’t stand to see Li Xiangrong walking about around Wei Zhiqian!
The expressions of the two elders, Wei Mingwen and Xiao Menghan, changed.
Old Mister Wei slammed the table angrily with a loud bang. He stood up and questioned Wei Keli loudly, “Who do you think you are saying something like that?”
“I’ve known Wei Keli since I was a child and called him brother. That’s because I really treat him like a brother. I’ve never had any other thoughts towards him, “Tan Mo said coldly. “He came to me on my 18th birthday and said that he had always treated me as a wife. He was waiting for me to become an adult and wanted us to be engaged. I don’t know where he got these thoughts from or who gave him such an illusion. I had never given him such explicit hints since I was a child. Before this, I was still underage. I couldn’t do such a thing. And Wei Keli even had such dirty thoughts towards me, who was still underage. It really disgusted me.”
“At that time, I rejected him. I told him that it was impossible for me to be with him. I didn’t like him. I only treated him as my older brother. When I’m not interested in someone, I would tell them straight away. But when I told him this, he tried to force me to do things I didn’t want to. Fortunately, Brother Zhiqian arrived in time and saved me.”
“Wei Keli!” Wei Mingwen was infuriated.
Such a gentle and refined person suddenly stood up and glared at Wei Keli. His eyes were full of rage.
If Xiao Menghan hadn’t stopped him, he would have attacked Wei Keli there and then!
“Before Wei Keli went to Nacheng, he came to me again. He said that although he was disappointed in me and he also liked Yuan Keqing in his heart, he still reserved the position of wife for me. He also told me not to be willful. Don’t deliberately say that I don’t like him just because I was angry at him.” Tan Mo sneered. “I don’t even know where his confidence comes from. I’ve told him long ago that I don’t like him, and I’ve never thought of marrying him. He even told me to be his wife. He was just playing around with Yuan Keqing. How could he have the heart to say such a thing? I’m really disgusted by him, let alone fall in love with him!”

Tan Mo sneered and then pointed at Wei Keli. “His paranoia is too serious! He even took my rejection as me playing hard to get! I’ve already said this, but I don’t know what he’s thinking. He actually thinks that brother Zhiqian and I cheated on him!”
“You also said that it’s the New Year.” Tan Mo stared at Li Xiangrong coldly. “What right does he have to disgust us? What right does he have to point his finger at me and call me dirty?”
“You called me dirty first!” Wei Keli exclaimed.
“Oh-oh, not good!” Li Xiangrong exclaimed inwardly.
Wei Keli’s words admitted that he had indeed said something like that to Tan Mo!
“You hooked up with Yuan Keqing outside and even thought of marrying me. Could it be that I was wrong to call you dirty?” Tan Mo asked sarcastically. “If you are a man and like Yuan Keqing, then you should openly fall in love with her! You should date her seriously! You said that you were just acting, right? Your words and your actions are unacceptable to me.”
“Wei Keli, your words are equivalent to admitting that Mo Mo didn’t blame you wrongly, right?” asked Old Mister Wei. “You said that they cuckolded you and called Mo Mo Dirty. You’ve said all these.”
“I... I didn’t! It’s a false accusation!” Wei Keli subconsciously denied it.
But his rebuttal earlier was equivalent to admitting it long ago.
Did everyone here think they were fools?
Now that he denied it, it only made people even more disappointed in him.
Tan Mo looked at Li Xiangrong with a mocking gaze, as if saying, “why should I like such a person?”
“Yes, you also know that it’s the New Year.” Old Madam Wei looked at Li Xiangrong faintly. “This is the first time that Mo Mo came to visit as Zhiqian’s girlfriend and got to know you guys. In the end, Wei Keli caused such a ruckus. Are you trying to ruin the mood for us?”
“Grandma, I... I didn’t know that Keli actually said these words.” Li Xiangrong tried to explain her way out of the mess.
“Exactly.. You were blaming Zhiqian for something you don’t know the details of,” Old Madam Wei said again.
