Chapter 441 - Gossip Behind Her Back



Chapter 441: Gossip Behind Her Back

After the midnight incident, Tan Mo did not dare spend too much time with Wei Zhiqian for a while.

She was worried that Wei Zhiqian would notice her feelings and, like in her dream, prohibit her from being near him.

Tan Mo was unclasping her seatbelt. She held onto the seatbelt with her hands, paused for a while, and said, “About that… I will have to see in the afternoon. I am not sure if I will be free tonight. Plus, what if you have to work overtime tonight?”

“That’s true.” Wei Zhiqian nodded and did not harp on the matter.

Since Tan Mo said to talk about it in the afternoon, then they would talk about it then.

“Then, goodbye.” After Tan Mo said that, she quickly got out of the car.

There were already many people at school.

Some were running in the morning to train, and some were on the way to the canteen to eat.

Tan Mo walked through the campus and arrived at the dormitory.

At this time, many people were on their balconies.

Some were reading English in the morning and practicing their English pronunciation.

Some were wearing their headphones to train their English listening comprehension while others were reciting English reading materials.

Many people saw Tan Mo return.

Lin Fuxi was also on the balcony practicing English pronunciation.

She happened to see Tan Mo return.

Lin Fuxi originally did not think much of it.

She was in the same dormitory as Tan Mo, so she knew that Tan Mo did not return the previous night.

It was just that the Tan family was in B city. It was normal if Tan Mo went back there and did not go to the dormitory.

She was only a little envious.

It was nice that she had the option to go back and stay at home since it was in B city.

After a second glance, Lin Fuxi’s had a confused expression.

“Yuelin, Yuxi!” Lin Fuxi turned to call Jin Yuelin and Meng Yuxi, who were washing up at the basin beside her.

“What is it?” Jin Yuelin was applying cleansing milk.

“Look, did Tan Mo also wear those clothes yesterday?” Lin Fuxi asked.

Jin Yuelin asked, “Is Tan Mo back?”

“Yes, downstairs. She is walking now.” Lin Fuxi pointed in the direction.

Jin Yuelin looked over. “It seems like it.”

“Did Tan Mo not go home? Why didn’t she change her clothes?” Lin Fuxi’s brain started to whir again.

“So what?” Meng Yuxi spat out the toothpaste foam in her mouth. “Who made the rule that we have to change clothes every day? Can’t we change our clothes once every two days?”

“Of course, there is no such rule.” Lin Fuxi’s gaze was still on Tan Mo. “Doesn’t Tan Mo have the habit of changing her clothes every day?”

Moreover, Tan Mo never washed her own clothes.

At the end of the corridor on every floor of their dormitory, there was a washing machine for public use. Tan Mo never used it.

She always sent her clothes to the laundry store to wash.

The staff from the laundry store would wait to collect her clothes below their dormitory and delivery them once they were washed.

Tan Mo did not need to send them over herself or collect them at the store.

With regards to her undergarments, Tan Mo bought a small washing machine, which was smaller than a pail to soak her feet, and used it to wash her undergarments and socks.

Anyway, she did not wash them herself.

As it was for washing intimate clothing, it was not good for them to share with Tan Mo.

Jin Yuelin and Meng Yuxi asked for the link where she purchased the machine and bought one themselves.

Only Lin Fuxi still washed them by hand.

Lin Fuxi could only say that it was a happy matter to have money.

“She has never worn the same set of clothes two days in a row,” Lin Fuxi said in a small voice. “She did not return last night and spent it outside. If she returned home, why wouldn’t she change her clothes? Unless… Was it a place where she did not have new clothes?”

Perhaps it was a hotel.

“What do you want to say?” Meng Yuxi found Lin Fuxi’s meaning odd. After she rinsed her mouth, her expression turned cold. “What are you hinting at?”

Meng Yuxi knew what Lin Fuxi wanted to imply.

However, she did not want to say it.

If she did, it was as if it was the truth and would supply an opportunity for Lin Fuxi to gossip.

As long as it was not said outright, Lin Fuxi could only imply and did not dare be explicit.

“Nothing.” As expected, Lin Fuxi did not say what she meant. “I am not hinting at anything. You, on the other hand, what did you think I was hinting?”

Meng Yuxi snorted coldly, “I won’t play this kind of linguistics game with you. Anyway, I am not curious why Tan Mo did not change her clothes. If you are curious, when Tan Mo returns, go and ask her yourself! If you don’t ask, don’t find someone else to make blind guesses behind her back!”

The party involved was right here. She did not ask and instead gossiped behind her back and put labels on her.

How disgusting.

Lin Fuxi was silent.

Jin Yuelin took a face towel and wiped the droplets on her face. She said to Lin Fuxi, “Lin Fuxi, what Yuxi said was right. You quickly ask Tan Mo later. If you don’t, this matter is over. Don’t be like just now when you tried to find someone to gossip about her behind her back. You didn’t manage to get us to gossip with you, so you will find someone else.”

Meng Yuxi was even more straightforward. “If there is any gossip being spread, don’t worry, my first suspect will be you. When that time comes, I will tell Tan Mo immediately. With regards to how Tan Mo wants to investigate, it is her matter. With the Tan family and Wei Zhiqian around, I don’t believe that she will not find out who the culprit is.”

Lin Fuxi stomped her foot anxiously. “I didn’t say anything much, yet you have decided that I am in the wrong. Plenty of people saw Tan Mo. If there really was gossip being spread, how could you be sure that it was me? Is it not possible for other people to spread it? Aren’t you being a bully now?”

Meng Yuxi laughed coldly. “Anyway, I didn’t hear other people gossiping. I only heard you say it.”

At this time, Tan Mo entered. Meng Yuxi saw her and directly entered the room from the balcony. She told Tan Mo, “Momo, Lin Fuxi is curious. She said that you did not return to the room, and you are wearing your clothes from yesterday again. She wants to ask where you stayed.”

Tan Mo looked at Lin Fuxi. Meng Yuxi asked, “Although someone did not say it directly, who does not know what ill thoughts she has?”

“Meng Yuxi, enough!” Lin Fuxi anxiously said, “I didn’t think anything much. Don’t twist my meaning and sow a rift between us!”

“I didn’t think of other things. It was you who thought so.” Lin Fuxi had a wronged expression. “Who knows who is the one with ill thoughts?”

Tan Mo saw that Meng Yuxi wanted to scold her back in anger. She held onto Meng Yuxi’s elbow.

With just that action, she appeased Meng Yuxi.

Tan Mo said to Lin Fuxi with a smile, “I had something going on last night and returned late. The dormitory was locked. It happened that my uncle had prepared an empty house in the neighborhood beside our school for me. If I am not able to stay in the dormitory, I can stay there.”

“It had been a long time since someone stayed there. Although there is a helper who cleans it regularly, there are no clothes for me there,” Tan Mo said. “I thought that since it was just beside the school, I could change my clothes this morning and stay there. I didn’t think that just because I have a bit more housing options that a misunderstanding could be created.”
