Upon hearing that, Tan Mo turned around and replied in bewilderment, "My uncle is with me, so I won't be afraid. He'll protect me. Besides, you've got to take care of Yu Xiaonan. I don't think you can handle two people at once."
Tan Mo turned to peer at Wei Zhiqian and whispered to herself, "I guess 'handsomeness' can be a curse too."
Zhou Jieyu's and Yu Xiaonan's ulterior motives were too apparent.
All their superficial acts earlier had only one purpose—to get her away from Wei Zhiqian.
Since Zhou Jieyu offered to keep her safe, the former must be backing Yu Xiaonan up.
It was so that Yu Xiaonan could get closer to Wei Zhiqian, using fright as an excuse.
Overwhelmed with fear, she would attempt to hug Wei Zhiqian in a panic. It would be inappropriate for him to push her away.
Moreover, Yu Xiaonan could wrap her arms around Wei Zhiqian tightly so that he could not cast her aside.
