Chapter 339  : Ming Yeqing and Wei Zhiqian Argue

“The guy has to keep himself clean for such a gorgeous lady as Mo Mo. There’s no way I would allow a playboy to touch her. After that, it’s important to check out the future mother-in-law. She has to be reasonable and has to treat Mo Mo like her own daughter. If she’s the type of mother who will only side with her son and work her daughter-in-law like a slave, then it’s a no. She’ll have to side with Mo Mo no matter what,” Wei Zhiqian said. “And not like those fake smiles and love while trying to scheme behind the back. No! She must love Mo Mo with all of her heart.”

Ming Yeqing could only sigh at Wei Zhiqian now, wondering why the man still could not see the resemblance.

“One more thing, the guy has to be super good-looking too,” Wei Zhiqian said proudly. “I mean, look at my Mo Mo. She’s such a gorgeous being. How could I let any normal-looking dude date her?”

Ming Yeqing was now holding back his urge to laugh at Wei Zhiqian.

“Brother Zhiqian, don’t you think that you check all the boxes of all the things you’ve just mentioned? Or, to be more precise, you might be the only one that fits all of that,” Ming Yeqing said in a gentle tone.

HMMM? Wei Zhiqian raised a brow. “I’m Mo Mo’s uncle. Why are you bringing me up?”

Ming Yeqing ignored the question and analyzed the situation. “Look, your first criteria. The man must be from a good family. Is there any family out there that can be better than one of the Eight Great Clans? Brother Zhiqian’s family is definitely the best there is, other than the other seven families of the Eight Great Clans, of course.”

He’s really getting used to calling me Brother Zhiqian, huh? Wei Zhiqian scoffed to himself, but didn’t stop Ming Yeqing from talking.

“Next, you said that other than coming from a good family, the man has to be successful in his own right. I don’t think there’s a need to say how successful you are. Now that you’re managing most of Weifeng Company, it’s not something that can be achieved only by being born into a good family. Personal talent is important as well,” Ming Yeqing continued. “The third criteria is that the man has to be mature enough to take care of Mo Mo. Well, Brother Zhiqian, I can say that you’re more than mature enough.”

To be exact, a man that’s nearing his 30s is trying to date a lady who just turned 18. How shameless can you be? Ming Yeqing mocked in his head.

Unfortunately for all the younger men out there, no one could stand out as much as the slightly older man could.

“There’s also the fact that you’ve been taking care of Mo Mo ever since she was a little girl. Other than her family, you’re the only one who knows what she wants and likes. Heck, you even cared for her like she’s the only thing that mattered to you. Other than her parents and brothers, who can take care of her like you do?” Ming Yeqing asked. “After that, no playboys or guys who had a lot of exes. The guy has to stay clean for Mo Mo. Well, do I need to explain that to you too, Brother Zhiqian?”

Wei Zhiqian had been single for his whole life, to the point where his mother was starting to get anxious about whether he would ever get married and give the family a new heir.

Wei Zhiqian was starting to become more and more speechless as Ming Yeqing continued with his conclusions.

“Then, the mother-in-law must treat Mo Mo like her own daughter. Now, that’s easy for you. Your parents have been treating Mo Mo as if she was their granddaughter. It wouldn’t be hard for them to start treating her as if she’s their daughter, right? Plus, there’s the fact that Mo Mo has been visiting your house ever since she was a baby. It isn’t too much to say she’s half a Wei now. Look, you just fit all five all your criteria. Also, don’t forget about the time your parents got angry at Mo Mo for submitting her paper earlier because you got admitted to the hospital. They would never have reacted that way if they didn’t treat Mo Mo as their family. Heck, they even ignored you, who was injured, to take care of Mo Mo instead. They literally treated her better than how they treated you. Oh, and the last one, the guy has to be good-looking. Well, don’t tell me that you think you don’t have the looks. You’re literally one of the most handsome men in this country right now.”

Every criterion was met, except for the age difference.

Ming Yeqing then gave Wei Zhiqian a meaningful smile. “Well, aren’t you basically talking about yourself?”

Wei Zhiqian responded by slamming his fist down on the table and barking, “What the heck are you even talking about? I’m her uncle. I’ve been watching her grow up ever since she was six. What do you think I am? A pedophile who preys on a little girl?”

“But Mo Mo is not a little girl now, is she?” Ming Yeqing reminded him. “She’s an adult now.”

“You sure have some wicked thoughts in your head,” Wei Zhiqian said.

The young man’s face turned sour immediately.

Me? Wicked? Aren’t you the animal here? Wait, no. You’re even worse than an animal. You don’t even know what you want.

“You better stay away from Mo Mo. You’re a bad influence on her,” Wei Zhiqian then said.

“…” Ming Yeqing glared at the man. Get lost, you dumbass!

“Uncle, Qing, what’s wrong?” Tan Mo asked when she saw the two guys glaring at each other.

Wei Zhiqian and Ming Yeqing turned around to find Tan Mo and Qin Muye had returned together.

“Nothing,” Ming Yeqing smiled gently.

As soon as the handsome young man smiled, the mood of the smoke-filled barbeque place lightened up instantly. It was as if his smile had permeated throughout the whole eatery.

“Nothing much. You girls were gone for quite a long time,” Wei Zhiqian also smiled at Tan Mo.

His smile was so warm that it was as if it could melt ice.

Some of the customers even saw flashes of icebergs melting in front of their faces.

Everyone now had their eyes on the two guys and could not avert their gazes no matter how much they tried.

“The bathroom is too small. We had to wait in line for our turn,” Tan Mo explained.

At first, some of the female customers guessed that Wei Zhiqian must have been in a relationship with one of the girls.

But then, they could tell from his look that he was older than his three companions.

The other three looked like they were still students, while Wei Zhiqian looked like he was a man that had stepped foot into society.

When they heard Tan Mo addressing Wei Zhiqian as Uncle, they let out sighs of relief.

Some even began to whisper, “That’s his niece, not his girlfriend. Thank God!”

“What about the other girl?”

“Well, isn’t it obvious she’s the other guy’s girlfriend or something? He has been smiling at her warmly ever since they walked in. The vibe he gives off is different.”

Women were usually astoundingly accurate at these kind of things.

“Then, should we ask for their contacts?”

“Why not? You’re just asking for his contact information. It’s pretty common nowadays, isn’t it? We see videos of it online all the time. Most of the time, when a woman asks a man for his contact, the man will usually give it as a form of respect.”

“Then, who’s going?”

“How about we go ask for it together?”

“Why not? May the best girl win!”
