Chapter 385  : Perverted?

In the morning when Wei Zhiqian got up, he saw his reflection and the mark of his hand was still on his face.

Although it was not as obvious as it had been the night before, there was still swelling.

He splashed a lot of cold water on the mark, but it didn’t do much good.

So he just got dressed and went down to breakfast.

The two elders had also just arrived.

When she saw Wei Zhiqian’s face, Old Madame asked with shock, “Zhiqian, what happened to your face?”

“I went to the bathroom in the dark and hit it,” Wei Zhiqian randomly made up an excuse.

Old Madame looked at his face, but did not believe his poor excuse.

However, she did not say anything.

Wei Zhiqian had stayed the night here.

Last night, before Wei Zhiqian had gone to his bedroom, his face had still been normal.

Yet, it was like this in the morning.

However, at Wei Manor, nobody would ever dare to hit him.

She did not know what was going on with Wei Zhiqian.

Auntie Zhang placed breakfast on the table.

Wei Mingwen and Xiao Menghan also arrived at this time.

They saw Wei Zhiqian’s face.

“Zhiqian, what happened to your face?” Xiao Menghan asked.

Wei Zhiqian used the same lie that he had used on the Old Madame.

Evidently, Xiao Menghan also did not believe it.

“After we finish our meal, let’s return and have some fun at the hot springs manor,” Xiao Menghan said. “Dad, Mom, why don’t you come along? The environment and scenery there are quite good, and it is very suitable for a holiday. I was thinking that in future, we should go on a trip to a hot spring. It would be good for us.”

“We will not go today as there are too many people there. In the future, let’s go with just our family,” the Old Madame said.

“All right,” Xiao Menghan agreed.

“I have work to do at the company today. I will not go either. I’m going to go to work,” Wei Zhiqian said.

“What is there to do at the company that I don’t know about?” Wei Mingwen asked. He found it odd.

“It’s just something on my end,” Wei Zhiqian casually said.

Wei Mingwen looked at him for a while and felt that Wei Zhiqian was somehow being weird this morning.

After he had been a beast in his dream, although it had just been a dream that only he himself and no one else knew about, Wei Zhiqian felt that he was unable to face Tan Mo.

How could he have that sort of dream toward this young lady. It was filthy!

Especially when he recalled that Tan Mo trusted him so much and would usually rush into his embrace without any defenses.

She would raise her head and call him uncle with such an innocent and pure gaze.

She had no idea what he’d done to her in his dream.

He felt that he was unable to face Tan Mo.

He was unable to look at Tan Mo’s innocent smiling face directly.

She treated him as her uncle.

But he was not good enough.

Wei Zhiqian thought to himself that maybe because Tan Mo had sat on his lap yesterday trying to cover his eyes, their pose had been a bit too intimate.

Perhaps it was this that had caused him to have that sort of dream.

After he had calmed down for a few days and not seen Tan Mo for a while, everything would be all right.

He was afraid that if he stayed around the house too long, his elders would ask more questions.

Wei Zhiqian quickly finished his meal and said, “I’m going to leave now.”

Everyone: “……”

After Xiao Menghan and Wei Mingwen had finished their breakfast, they took the car and headed to the hot springs manor.

En route, Xiao Menghan was still thinking about Wei Zhiqian’s behavior. “I found Zhiqian so weird today…”

“Me too,” Wei Mingwen agreed.

“And that injury on his face…” Xiao Menghan held onto Wei Mingwen’s arm and said, “Did he really think that we couldn’t tell? An injury caused by him running into something in the dark would not look like that. I think it looked more like an injury from someone hitting him.”

“But at the manor, who would hit him?” Wei Mingwen also felt something was off with the injury.

Xiao Menghan thought and softly said, “Do you think…did Mom hit him?”

“Why would Mom hit Zhiqian?” Wei Mingwen asked.

“Isn’t Zhiqian already 27? He still doesn’t have a partner and Mom is anxious. She wanted to introduce someone to him or have him attend a matchmaking session, but he’s not willing. Don’t you think that is aggravating?” Xiao Menghan continued. “Perhaps Mom got angry and slapped him.”

Wei Mingwen: “……”

That might be a possibility.

…

At Wei Manor…

After Wei Mingwen and Xiao Menghan had left, the Old Madame was also trying to figure it out.

“Do you think that the injury on Zhiqian’s face was caused by him running into the wall on the way to the bathroom?” the Old Madame asked the Old Mister.

The Old Mister sneered. “He thinks that we are fools. It is more believable that the mark on his face was caused by being slapped by a ghost than by him running into a wall.”

TCH! The Old Madame rolled her eyes at him. “Nonsense!

“However, you’re right. It does look like a slap. Before he went to sleep last night, there wasn’t that mark. How did a mark appear during the night?”

“There is no one in this manor who would ever dare to hit him,” the Old Mister said. “Except you.”

Old Madame: “……”

“I would hit him elsewhere, not on his face. I know that he still needs to meet people. If I hit him, I would not hit his face.” The Old Madame rolled her eyes at the Old Mister again.

Why was he so honest?

“Then what do you think happened?” The Old Mister was perplexed.

“Do you think…he has become perverted?” the Old Madame suggested.

“You’re the pervert! Who would say that their own grandson was a pervert?” the Old Mister was horrified.

“No, I am saying…he is already 27, and he has yet to date and has no girlfriend. This is not normal! I secretly asked Mufeng and some other of his friends. They all said that Zhiqian looks at them normally, and they guaranteed that he does not like men. But a normal man needs to release, right? Otherwise, it is easy for him to become perverted.

“Do you think that because he does not have a girlfriend and has bottled up so much, he slapped himself?” The Old Madame had a strong imagination.

Old Mister Wei: “This…this is not impossible.”

“Then what can I arrange for him?” The Old Madame could not sit still. “Previously, I had asked around and I’ve arranged some photos and information about some girls who aren’t bad at all.

“But Zhiqian was not willing, so I’ve been waiting for a suitable chance to mention it again.” The Old Madame stood up, and she turned to say to the Old Mister as she walked toward the bedroom, “I think that today is a suitable time.”

The Old Madame very confidently returned to the bedroom and took out a file.

It had all the data she’d organized.

The Old Madame was someone who acted quickly. She immediately took out her mobile phone and called Wei Zhiqian.

Wei Zhiqian was still on his way to the company.

Although he really didn’t have much work, he could still prepare for his future tasks.

“Grandma,” Wei Zhiqian picked up the call on his earphones.

“Zhiqian, are you free tonight?” The Old Madame thought that she was being subtle when she asked.

“What’s the matter?” Wei Zhiqian asked.

“Tell me first, are you free?” The Old Madame needed Wei Zhiqian to say that he was free.

Wei Zhiqian: “I am free.”

“As long as you are free…” the Old Madame flipped open the file and saw the girl on the first page.
