Chapter 634: Who Are You Calling A Friend?
Wei Zhiqian looked over and the screen turned pitch black. He couldn’t see anything.
Wei Zhiqian couldn’t help but laugh. It seemed like he had to live together to see the little girl fall asleep at night and wait for her to wake up in the morning.
Even so, Wei Zhiqian didn’t want to hang up the phone.
He didn’t want to hang up the phone without Tan Mo knowing.
Anyway, his phone was charged, so he wasn’t in a hurry.
He said softly to the dark screen, “Good night, Momo”
Although the screen was dark, his voice could still be heard.
It was unknown if Tan Mo could hear him say good night in her sleep.
Wei Zhiqian couldn’t see Tan Mo’s sweet smile in his sleep through the dark screen.

When Tan Mo woke up in the morning, she habitually reached for her phone next to the pillow.
She used to place her phone on the right side of the pillow so that she could check the time with her eyes closed in the morning.
This time, she felt nothing.
Tan Mo rubbed her eyes a few times before opening them. She looked around and found that her phone was next to her neck.
“When did my video call with Uncle end last night?” She had no memory of it at all.
Could it be that she fell asleep while chatting with her uncle?
Tan Mo picked up her phone and clicked on the screen, but the screen was still dark and nothing happened.
Tan Mo pressed the start button again, but the screen still did not respond.
She frowned and pulled the data cable from the bedside cabinet next to her.
To save time, Tan Mo had installed a row of outlets on the bedside cabinet.
Once she reached out her hand, she could plug in the charger and connect it to her cell phone.
After a while, the charging mode appeared on the screen. Only then did tan mo realize that her cell phone had run out of battery.
Tan Mo found it strange. Why did her cell phone run out of battery overnight?
Tan Mo was like the young people of today. She could choose not to look at her cell phone, but when it ran out of battery, she would always think about it and feel uneasy.
Even if she did not look at her phone, the battery had to be sufficient.
She sat up and waited for the battery to charge until it finally showed 2% battery on the screen.
Tan Mo reckoned it should be enough to turn on the phone, so she tried to turn it on.
Sure enough, the phone was turned on.
Tan Mo looked at her WeChat message first.
No one sent her messages.
She looked at the time again. It was only 7:30 am.
Probably because she slept too early last night, she woke up early today.
Tan Mo went to wash up first.
While Tan Mo was washing up, the atmosphere in the Tan family’s living room was very subtly tense.
Tan Wenci looked at the person standing in the living room and the corner of his mouth twitched.
Although he had asked Wei Zhiqian to come today, he hadn’t asked him to come so early.
His family hadn’t even had breakfast yet.
“You certainly are early.” Tan Wenci didn’t know what to say.
“You asked me to come today, so I came as soon as I opened my eyes,” Wei Zhiqian said with a smile.
There was no trace of the unhappiness from yesterday on his face.
Tan Wenci almost couldn’t help cursing.
Xu Mingzhen hurriedly tugged at his clothes to tell him not to be impulsive.
They had agreed yesterday.
Tan Wenzhi had no choice but to say, “But it’s too early. We haven’t woken up yet.”
It was rare for them to wake up too early on weekends. They usually woke up at eight o’clock and had breakfast around eight-thirty.
This was because Tan Wenzhi and Xu Mingzhen’s sleep quality had decreased compared to when they were younger.
As for the Tan brothers and Tan Mo, they slept until whatever time they wanted. No one cared.
However, the three tan brothers usually got up early.
The only person who slept in late was Tan Mo.
Today, she had to wake up earlier than usual because Wei Zhiqian came really early.
When Wei Zhiqian rang the doorbell, even Tan Wenci and Xu Mingzhen had yet to get up yet, let alone the three tan brothers and Tan Mo.
Auntie Guo was the only person who was up. She was preparing breakfast in the kitchen.
After letting Wei Zhiqian in, she quickly went to wake up Tan Wenci and Xu Mingzhen.
Hence, Tan Wenci and Xu Mingzhen were still standing in the living room in their pajamas.
If they were not receiving guests at home, they would usually wear pajamas. Anyway, they were all family members, so they weren’t so particular.
The three brothers were working and rarely came back.
Also, Tan Mo stayed on campus.
There were usually only the two of them and Auntie Guo at home.
“The two of you can go back and rest. Don’t worry about me. I will just wait in the living room,” said Wei Zhiqian with a smile.
Tan Wenci went speechless.
Did he speak human language?
“Can we leave you alone in the living room?” Tan Wenci raised his eyebrows.
Besides, Tan Mo was still at home.
What if this kid ran to find Tan Mo while they were away?
“You wait here first. We’ll go back and change first,” said Tan Wenci.
It was weird to talk to Wei Zhiqian in pajamas.
This was especially sp when they were wearing pajamas while Wei Zhiqian was neatly dressed.
“Uncle, there’s no need to trouble yourself. We’re family. There’s no need to care about such formalities,” Wei Zhiqian said with a smile.
“Who are you calling family?” Tan Wenci spat at him. Although he had already agreed in his heart, he hadn’t said it out loud yet!
Wei Zhiqian did not get angry when he heard Tan Wenci say that. There was still a smile on his face.
Tan Wenci did not look very happy.
Wei Zhiqian was smiling as if he had long seen through that they would agree.
This made Tan Wenci extremely annoyed.
In fact, Tan Wenci was really thinking too much.
Wei Zhiqian was just trying his best to appear friendly.
Who knew that it would actually cause Tan Wenci to plot against them?
Tan Wenci felt worried, so he said, “You wait here. Don’t go anywhere!”
“Okay.” Wei Zhiqian nodded.
“Don’t go upstairs to look for Momo!” Tan Wenci warned again.
“I’ll wait in the living room. I’m not going anywhere.” Wei Zhiqian took the initiative to say, “You can also ask Auntie Guo to keep an eye on me. If I move a step, she can tell you.”
Tan Wenci went quiet.
Well, it was not that bad.
Tan Wenci did not speak anymore. He pulled Xu Mingzhen back to the room first.
Wei Zhiqian really did not plan to look for Tan Mo.
He was already at the Tan residence, so it was only a matter of time before he saw Tan Mo.
Why would he need to be so impatient? It was not worth making Tan Wenci and Xu Mingzhen angry.
Tan Mo was also used to wearing only comfortable pajamas while she was at home.
After Tan Mo washed up, she went downstairs in her pajamas and prepared to have breakfast with her family.
She could smell the faint smell of food as she walked downstairs, but there was no sound of chatting.
Tan Mo guessed that her parents might not have woken up yet.
She saw the person sitting on the couch in the living room when she got downstairs. Tan Mo was so surprised that she thought that she had yet to wake up and was still in a dream.
“Uncle?” Tan Mo called out in surprise. Her voice was not loud, as if she was afraid of waking someone up.
Wei Zhiqian turned around when he heard the voice and immediately laughed. “Hi, Momo.”
He even extended his hand toward her.
Tan Mo pinched her leg..
