Top-notch Master Masquerading As Cannon Fodder Female Companion

Chapter 301: Defeat

“There are only a limited number of enrollment slots for Beijing University every year. If she enrolls, she will be using up a slot. Other people who have studied hard and gotten good grades will lose a chance to enter Beijing University because of her. This is not fair to people who have studied hard and followed the rules.” Xu Mingzhen concluded, “I don’t mind treating my relatives impartially for the sake of justice. She got the punishment she deserved.

“You can tell Xu Mingjing what I said word for word.” Xu Mingzhen’s voice had turned very cold. “You should also remember these words. If you and the Yuan family come and harass us again about wanting Mo Mo to approach President Mu to allow Yuan Keqing to enter the school, then you best pray that Yuan Keqing decides against it. If she enrolls, I will report her.”

“You! You!” Old Madame Xu sounded as if she was so angry she was unable to breathe properly.

Even though she was unable to see her on the other end of the phone, Xu Mingzhen could imagine how angry Old Madame Xu looked at this moment.

She was familiar with her mother’s temper tantrums.

“You are threatening us!” Old Madame Xu raged.

“Can it be that only you can threaten me and order me around, and I am not allowed to threaten you?” Xu Mingzhen glanced at the time and said, “Mom, I am busy with other matters and am going to hang up now.”

Xu Mingzhen hung up the phone and turned and faced Tan Mo’s admiring gaze.

“Mom, you are incredible!” This was the first time Xu Mingzhen had dismissed Old Madame Xu like that with just a few words.

Xu Mingzhen could not help but feel proud under Tan Mo’s gaze.

“I have learned a little something after so many years.” When she came to think of it, this method that she had used today had been influenced by Wei Zhiqian.

Wei Zhiqian had made use of what the Yuan family cared about to punish them.

Therefore, now, Xu Mingzhen also used Yuan Keqing’s predicament to control Old Madame Xu and the rest of the Yuan family.

They wanted Yuan Keqing to enter Beijing University, which was why they’d harassed them multiple times.

Now, she let them know that if they harassed her family again, she would end Yuan Keqing’s future.

“Where are you going?” Xu Mingzhen saw that Tan Mo had changed into outdoor clothing.

“To find Qin Muye,” Tan Mo said as she headed toward the door. “Isn’t today the day the results are out? Muye also took the high school leaving examinations this year. I had made plans with Ming Yeqing to go to Muye’s house to see the results,” Tan Mo said as she put on her shoes at the gate.

“Then will you be back for lunch?” Xu Mingzhen looked at the time and estimated that by the time she reached the Qin Mansion, it would be near mealtime.

“I won’t be home for lunch. How could she not feed us when we go to Muye’s house?” Tan Mo laughed and said.

“All right.” Xu Mingzhen smiled, called the chauffeur, and sent Tan Mo to the Qin Mansion.

…

After Old Madame Xu hung up the phone, she called Xu Mingjing and told Xu Mingjing what Xu Mingzhen had said.

“She…how could she do that?” Xu Mingjing was so angry she cried out, “Keqing is her biological niece! Even if she would not help, she also shouldn’t turn around and report Keqing. She… Doesn’t she want to see Keqing do well? She is…no longer concerned with our sisterhood? No matter what, Keqing is her niece…”

Old Madame Xu had said the same things, and she was angry as well, but what could they do?

“Your sister has given up on her maternal family for the sake of her Tan family,” Old Madame Xu said in anger. “I don’t dare to talk to her anymore. If I could figure out a way to get Keqing into Beijing University, what would I do if she really reported us?”

Xu Mingzhen would have been glad to know that they were worrying about this.

“I…I will talk to her,” Xu Mingjing said. “Even if she won’t help, she cannot harm Keqing this way. What good would it do for her if she harmed Keqing? Keqing entering Beijing University would not hinder her, why is she being so extreme? I want to ask her, she…does she not want me as her sister anymore?”

“You are not afraid that if you ask her, she will report Keqing immediately?” Old Madame Xu reminded her. “She did say that if anyone bugs their family again or if Keqing does enter Beijing University, she will report her.”

Old Madame Xu inhaled deeply and exhaled deeply. “Do you really want to risk it?”

“I think that your sister really wants to cut off all familial relations.” Old Madame Xu reminded her, “You are not afraid that if you go see her again, she really will report you immediately?”

“But from what she said, even if we don’t find her, she will also report us,” Xu Mingjing said anxiously.

“That failure!” Old Madame Xu was aggravated and sat down hard on the sofa. “Daughters of other families don’t forget their maternal families and help them as much as they can after they are married. She on the other hand frames her maternal family! She did not think that even after she was married, she might still need the support of her maternal family.

“If she quarrels with Tan Wenci or is bullied, wouldn’t she still have to rely on her maternal family to stand up for her? If she cuts ties with us like this, she will regret it in the future!” Old Madame Xu was already looking forward to Xu Mingzhen suffering a big loss.

Then Xu Mingzhen would realize the importance of her maternal family.

She shouldn’t cast off her maternal family, as if they were a burden.

“I advise you to not to contact her. She has gone mad now,” Old Madame Xu advised her again.

Xu Mingjing hung up the phone and was so angry that she was unable to form words for a moment.

“What did she say? Auntie said she wants to report me?” Yuan Keqing had been able to hear the conversation from Xu Mingjing’s end when Xu Mingjing had been speaking to Old Madame Xu on the phone just now.

But she had only been able to understand half the story.

However, when she heard that she would be reported, Yuan Keqing’s heart fell.

Xu Mingjing breathed deeply and, after she’d calmed down a little, she then told Yuan Keqing what Old Madame Xu had said.

“Auntie is cutting off my path to Beijing University entirely.” Yuan Keqing stood up and walked back and forth in front of Xu Mingjing. “How can she be so harsh?”

Xu Mingjing sighed and asked worriedly, “Keqing, what do you intend to do after this? Do you still insist on entering Beijing University? If you insist, your dad and I will try to find ways, but…I am afraid your auntie really will report you.

“She is different than she used to be.” Xu Mingjing sighed. “She no longer thinks about us and wants the best for us. She is now so cold. I am afraid that she really would report you as she said.

“You…why don’t you give up on Beijing University?” Xu Mingjing advised.

Yuan Keqing thought about it. She was also afraid that Xu Mingzhen really would report her.

She didn’t dare to risk such things.

If the matter was exposed, she would be very embarrassed.

“Then I can only decide to go to another school.” Yuan Keqing had given up. She was no longer insistent.

“Tell me which one you want to change to. Although you are not able to enroll at Beijing University with your grades, you still can enter other universities with hard work. We can even let you study overseas if you want.”

“I will not go overseas.” Wei Keli was still in the country. How could she go overseas?

She would be too far away once she left.

She would not be able to hear all the gossip and keep her eyes on the situation..

What if Tan Mo snatched Wei Keli back while she was overseas?
