Chapter 426: A Friend from Nowhere

Thus, Tan Mo was not able to supply more details.

She could only frame it in such an ostentatious way.

Qin Muye naively believed it.

Ming Yeqing was listening from the side.

This was a case of one dared to say it, and one dared to believe it.

“Then… Shall we go together?” Qin Muye looked at Tan Mo with wide eyes. She also looked at Ming Yeqing.

“I… I don’t dare to go.” Tan Mo waved her hands.

She only went because Wei Zhiqian was around.

If Wei Zhiqian was not around, she would not go no matter what.

Even if Ming Yeqing followed, the sense of security was not at the same level.

“You… You can have Ah-Qing accompany you,” Tan Mo said.

If she was to go, Wei Zhiqian had to be there.

In her current state, she did not dare call Wei Zhiqian to go along.

She was afraid that once she saw Wei Zhiqian, she would become perverted again at night.

She saw Qin Muye turn her head. She looked at her with wide eyes.

Ming Yeqing nodded and said before Tan Mo could open her mouth, “Okay, when do you want to go?”

“Is this Sat.u.r.day okay?” Qin Muye could not wait.

If not for her consideration for Ming Yeqing, as he had to handle the matters of the research lab, she would have gone later that night.

“Okay.” Ming Yeqing nodded.

“If you want to do the normal version, call me,” Tan Mo quickly said.

When she told Yu Xiaonan that there was nothing much about escape rooms, wasn’t that because Yu Xiaonan wanted Wei Zhiqian’s contact information?

She had only said that to dismiss Yu Xiaonan.

In reality, Tan Mo felt that escape rooms were quite fun.

“Of course!” Qin Muye gave Tan Mo a thumbs up.

The trio arrived at the j.a.panese restaurant. A waiter in a Kimono and wooden clogs led them to the private room after Tan Mo provided her name.

The private room was decorated in a j.a.panese style.

When the wooden door was pulled open, the inside was a tatami room. There was a pit for them to put their legs.

Thus, customers did not have to be on their knees or sit cross-legged until their legs were numb.

It was the same as sitting in a normal chair.

The trio ordered some food.

After the waiter left, Qin Muye hurriedly asked, “Momo, what is the matter that you are so cautious about and even need to discuss in a private room?”

Tan Mo bit her lower lip awkwardly.

Now that the matter was at this state, Tan Mo suddenly was too embarra.s.sed and found it difficult to approach the topic.

At the opposite side of the table, Qin Muye and Ming Yeqing looked at her with wide eyes.

“What do you have to be embarra.s.sed about with us?” Ming Yeqing smiled gently. His gentle brows and eyes were warm. They caused people to relax unknowingly.

“There are a lot of things that are not convenient to tell family, so you must tell them to your closest friends.” Ming Yeqing smiled and said, “if you can’t tell even your closest friends, and you have no one to talk to and have to keep the matter in your heart, life is too difficult.”

“Life is long. It is good that it is a little sweet.” Ming Yeqing poured a cup of Oolong tea for Tan Mo. “How nice it is to be accompanied by close friends to support and confide anything to each other?”

The fragrance of the tea and the steam slowly traveled to Tan Mo’s nose.

As she listened to Ming Yeqing’s words, an image appeared in Tan Mo’s mind.

Many years in the future, the three of them were middle-aged. When they became old, they could still sit together like this and tell each other anything.

“I… I have a friend…” Tan Mo finally opened her mouth.

Qin Muye was speechless.

Ming Yeqing was too.

A friend from nowhere?

Would they not know of Tan Mo’s friends?

Weren’t they her friends?

Since Tan Mo told them, it had to be a matter they did not know about.

If it was not related to them, and Tan Mo did not have other friends, then wasn’t only Wei Zhiqian left?

Ming Yeqing and Qin Muye pretended that they did not realize.

Qin Muye even cooperatively asked, “What happened with your friend?”

“Just…” Tan Mo found it difficult to talk about.

Qin Muye and Ming Yeqing had never seen Tan Mo so indecisive.

Although Tan Mo’s voice was soft, she was usually a decisive person.

She had never hesitated this much when speaking to Qin Muye and Ming Yeqing.

“It’s just that she had a dream, and she dreamed about a man.” Wei Zhiqian could not be called a boy, or a male student.

He was a man who could not be more mature.

When she thought of Wei Zhiqian, Tan Mo was unable to lie that he was a male student.

Qin Muye unknowingly leaned forward. With the table between them, she tried her best to be close to Tan Mo.

Tan Mo dream about a man.

Who?

Even Ming Yeqing raised his brows and was curious about who Tan Mo dreamed about.

If Wei Zhiqian knew that Tan Mo dreamed about another man, wouldn’t he be very angry?

Even if it was Ming Yeqing, he did not expect that Tan Mo would dream of Wei Zhiqian.

Tan Mo had addressed Wei Zhiqian as “Uncle” since she was young.

Ming Yeqing thought that Tan Mo would still see Wei Zhiqian in that way.

“Who did you dream of? It must be someone you know?” Qin Muye was so excited that her mouth slipped.

Tan Mo remained quiet.

Tan Mo moved her mouth. She had already said that it was her friend.

Qin Muye laughed dryly. “You… You just continue.”

“Alright, I admit it,” Tan Mo saw that she could not hide anymore and could only admit, “it was me…”

Ming Yeqing could not help but ask, “So, who did you dream about?”

He also leaned toward Tan Mo and almost touch Qin Muye’s head.

Tan Mo remained hesitant.

Even the usually reliable Ming Yeqing was also like that.

“Tell me first, what does it mean if I dream about him?” Tan Mo avoided their question.

Even if it was Ming Yeqing and Qin Muye, she was too embarra.s.sed to say that she dreamed about Wei Zhiqian.

“We do not know what you did with him in the dream,” Qin Muye said, “so we cannot say.”

At this time, the waiter served a sas.h.i.+mi platter and sus.h.i.+.

The trio thus paused their conversation.

After the waiter left, Ming Yeqing said, “What Muye said made sense. At night, you dream of what you were thinking about during the day. It is not unusual to suddenly dream of the thing you did or the person you met in the day. There are many things you could experience in a dream, such as being chased by someone, finding treasure, clearing levels, even traveling, and playing games. Anything is possible, and these do not matter. It does not matter who you dreamed about.”

“Yes, I even dreamed about Cao Jingchen,” Qin Muye said.

Tan Mo was surprised.

Was this something she should just casually say…

Especially in front of Ming Yeqing?

She was too simple-minded.

Ming Yeqing could not care about who Tan Mo dreamed of for the moment and immediately turned to ask, “What was your dream about?”

“I dreamed that he liked a girl,” Qin Muye said.
