Top-notch Master Masquerading As Cannon Fodder Female Companion

Chapter 136: Gone to the Extreme

Tan Mo treated her with sincerity, so naturally Auntie Guo would treat Tan Mo with sincerity as well.

“Mo Mo, how are you doing? Have you adapted to life at school?” Auntie Guo asked.

“Yes. All the instructors are very nice. In fact, the training wasn’t all that intensive. After training for a while, we are allowed to rest. It’s not very tiring, but it was very hot.” But there was nothing that could be done about that.

The instructors have tried their best to take them to places with shade for training, but they can’t control the weather.

The instructors knew that these students weren’t going to join the army.

The military training didn’t need to be that intense.

They didn’t put them through heavy training.

“I miss eating the sweet and sour prawns and crispy pork ribs made by Auntie!” She especially missed the crispy pork ribs, which was Auntie Guo’s specialty.

The fried pork ribs were crispy but not greasy. After being fried, the surface was sprinkled with a special powder that made them very crunchy.

The sweet and sour prawns she made were also very different from those made by other people.

The deep-fried prawns were crispy, and even the skin could be eaten.

They were coated with a layer of sweet and sour sauce that made them extremely delicious.

Talking about this food almost made Tan Mo drool.

“When you come back from your military training, I will cook them for you!” Auntie Guo was very happy.

The fact that Tan Mo was hungry for her dishes was an affirmation of her culinary skills.

“Is it Mo Mo?” Tan Wenci came over, waiting eagerly.

“Yes.” Auntie Guo handed the phone to Tan Wenci.

“Mo Mo, I’ve finally heard your voice. I’ve missed you so much.” Tan Mo had been too tired before, so she’d sent a few message to the group, saying that she was fine.

Tan Wenci had wanted to rush to the school to see Tan Mo.

He’d heard that Wei Zhiqian had asked Butler Zhou to take cold drinks to her every day.

They didn’t do so on the first day, but on the second day, he brought umbrellas and folding chairs.

When Tan Mo rested, she could sit under the umbrella, which was more comfortable than resting in the shade.

Tan Wenci became slightly more satisfied with Wei Zhiqian for taking care of her.

But he hadn’t been considerate enough. Only on the second day of military training did he think of delivering cold drinks. Only on the third day did he remember to prepare umbrellas and folding chairs.

When Tan Wenci complained about Wei Zhiqian, he never thought about how he hadn’t even done as much as Wei Zhiqian had.

At least Wei Zhiqian had thought of it.

He hadn’t even thought of it.

“Dad, I miss you too,” Tan Mo said. “I have six-and-a-half days left before the military training is over. The last day is only half a day. I will be home at noon!”

She was really homesick.

She’d had no home in her last life, so the heavens and the earth had been her home, while her Master had been her closest kin.

Yet her Master had often gone out.

Her Master wouldn’t come back for a long time after he’d gone out, so Tan Mo was already used to it.

Their years together were too long, so long they didn’t care about the passage of time.

But in this life, she had a family.

In the midst of their warm and boundless love, Tan Mo has almost forgotten about how she had had no home in her bleak previous life.

The phone was soon snatched away by Xu Mingzhen as soon as Tan Wenci finished saying the word “good.”

Tan Mo talked to Xu Mingzhen some more before it was Tan Jinqi’s turn.

Tan Mo was finally able to talk about serious business.

Tan Mo explained that Professor Tang was going to introduce Tan Jinqi to Director Hou Yuehai.

“I don’t know when Professor Tang will contact you, but I’m just telling you in advance so that you won’t be unaware of what is going on when he finds you and then suspect that there is some sort of conspiracy and refuse.” Tan Mo knew Tan Jinqi too well.

Her oldest brother was very cautious.

This was probably because he always set people up, and he always thought that others were also experts at setting people up, like he was.

Except for his family, he thought that everyone else had nefarious intentions.

Tan Mo thought about how, although Tan Jinqi was shrewd and resourceful in his last life, it wasn’t like this.

She didn’t know what had happened to him in this life.

Tan Mo didn’t know that this was all because of a sentence she had said to Tan Jinqi when she was a child.

No matter what, they must protect themselves first.

It’s never too late for revenge, and one should get revenge by whatever unscrupulous means possible.

At that time, she had been worried that Tan Jinqi wouldn’t take her words to heart.

But she didn’t realize how seriously Tan Jinqi had taken her words to heart.

He’d started using every means possible to get what he wanted.

Not to mention how he reacted to people who provoked him… Tan Jinqi even had his guard up against people who had never offended him.

It was as if the whole world, except for his family, was full of villains.

Tan Jinqi seemed to have gone to the extreme.

“Mo Mo.” Tan Jinqi felt very ambivalent, and he said, “I am your older brother, but I didn’t help you, and on the contrary, you have to trade yourself to make a deal to introduce me to a famous director.”

Tan Jinqi felt that he was useless.

He owed Tan Mo too much.

“Big brother, what are you talking about? What do you mean by trading myself? Obviously, I am so outstanding that Professor Tang begged me to take his class. This is my reward for taking his class,” Tan Mo said. “I didn’t sacrifice anything. Anyway, it’s a good thing for me to learn more.

“Also, there are so many people, including upperclassmen, in my school who want to be Professor Tang’s disciples but don’t have a chance.” Tan Mo was talking on the phone in the dormitory.

Fortunately, her other three roommates weren’t there. She didn’t know what they were doing now.

They have just started their college life, and they probably couldn’t wait to start experiencing it.

Otherwise, if they were here and heard Tan Mo’s words, they would feel completely off-balance.

“My oldest brother has doted on me since I was young. I am your younger sister. Since I have the opportunity to help you, of course I have to help. If I couldn’t contribute anything and just receive contributions, I would be sad.” Tan Mo pouted.

Then wouldn’t what she has always said about protecting her parents and brothers become empty talk?

Only if she helps now will she be standing by her promise.

This was her first step to fulfilling her promise!

This was a pretty good start, and she was quite satisfied.

“Why are you so formal with me?” Tan Mo said sulkily.

Tan Jinqi sighed and said, “I know now. Well then, I will study hard and try my best to make a name for myself. One day, I will be able to support you.”

“Then I’ll be waiting for you.” Tan Mo was very confident that her oldest brother would definitely be able to be successful. “Big brother, tell my second and third brothers not to be jealous. I will definitely find good mentors for them.”

“I will. Don’t put pressure on yourself,” Tan Jinqi said. “They are your brothers. They didn’t work hard to do anything for you, so how can they let their younger sister find mentors for them instead?”

Tan Jinsheng and Tan Jinyi, who were watching eagerly, were baffled.

Mentor?

What mentor?

“Brother, have you finished speaking yet? Let me say a few words to Mo Mo,” Tan Jinsheng urged.

“Got it.” Tan Mo agreed, but she didn’t plan to do so.
