His smile instantly reminded Tan Mo as he was taught by Wei Zhiqian as an elementary school student.
Wei Zhiqian had the same smile when she taught him how to write his own name for the first time.
Tan Mo could immediately feel his heart start racing. Unknowingly, he sat more upright in his chair.
This smile continued to cling on Wei Zhiqian's face as he said to her, “I still remember when you learned to write your name in my study room when you were an elementary school student, you know, and I used to snap your forehead. I am sure that I did not exert any strength into the act, but you will always cry out in pain.”
‘But I think you have self-healing power?’
That was the question that came to Wei Zhiqian's mind, but he did not say it out loud.
However, Tan Mo knew what he was trying to say, and his jaw dropped.
He could not believe that the man in front of him still remembered him even though many years had passed since then.
If he took into account his past life, Tan Mo had lived for over 1,000 years. All this time, this was the first time he had made such a huge mistake.
He lowered his head and leaned back in his chair. He resembled a flower whose petals drooped.
Wei Zhiqian could not help but sigh when he saw her reaction. Even though he was the one who had lied to her for so many years, he was now pretending to be the one who was wronged.
This man always hated being lied to, but when he saw the expression on his face, he could not help but be angry at him.
He reached out his hand and was about to flick Tan Mo's forehead, but he was used to not hurting this girl.
Although he knew that he would not be injured even if he exerted his strength into his actions, his habit of protecting him forced him not to.
It was then that he realized how frightening the habit was.
Wei Zhiqian pulled his arm back and coughed. “Yeah, I will ignore it this time, but don't dare lie to me again.”
Tan Mo quickly nodded and promised her.
She did not know why, but at that moment, she hugged him tightly, just like she did when she was a child.
Tan Mo rubbed his gentle face into Wei Zhiqian's chest and licked it as usual. “There's no way I lied to Uncle when Uncle was so good to me. The only time I did it was when you flicked my forehead, I promised. It was because I wanted Uncle to love me more.”.
Normally, Wei Zhiqian would be extremely disgusted if people spoke to him in such a spoiled manner, but when Tan Mo did, he was fine and even liked to hear it. Even he doesn't know what happened to him.
He lowered his head to look at Tan Mo and knew that they were as close as ever. His actions were still the same as after so many years.
The only difference was that the little girl was no longer small.
Wei Zhiqian did not push Tan Mo away because she also missed the feeling of being embraced by him.
After a while, Wei Zhiqian finally gently patted her head and said, “Come, you are too old to act like a spoiled child again.”
Tan Mo pouted, wondering if Wei Zhiqian really meant what he said.
If he really hated her, he would push her away as he did that.
But in truth he started to get tired after hugging Wei Zhiqian for a long time. His back began to hurt, and his position became awkward.
However, Tan Mo would not give up so easily. He gently lifted his head and looked at Wei Zhiqian with a cute expression. “You have changed. You always liked me holding you like this. You pervert!”
Wei Zhiqian was speechless. ‘What the fuck? Why do you call me a pervert?’
“Are you not tired?” he asked, after realizing how uncomfortable his position was.
“No!” Tan Mo replied firmly. “As long as I can hug Uncle, I won't let go.”
He then proceeded to take Tan Mo and put him on his lap.
Even if he was his uncle, Tan Mo was still a 16-year-old teenager, and it was inappropriate for them to cuddle so much.
Normally, Wei Zhiqian would never do something like this, but Tan Mo was too clingy, and he decided to let it pass for one day.
In his heart, Tan Mo would always be a petite little girl like himself the first time he saw her.
Since only the two of them were present, and the quiet and beautiful night sky, he chose to ignore the awkwardness.

Director Liu arrived in the studio with a script for the first episode. As he looked at Tan Jinqi, who was immersed in her own work, he quickly walked towards her.
“Director Liu,” Tan Jinqi greeted him when he heard footsteps approaching him and stopped what he was doing.
“You really have a good little sister.” Director Liu smiled as he patted Tan Jinqi on the shoulder. He could not help but feel jealous.
Tan Jinqi was stunned for a moment before smiling. “What did he ask of you?”
The eldest brother did not doubt his younger sister's abilities. He knew he would write an incredible script when he accepted the request.
That's why he didn't even ask Director Liu how the script was.
And judging from the director's expression, Tan Jinqi was able to say that he was completely satisfied with the script that Tan Mo had written.
Director Liu was pleased with the result. Tan Mo's ability to act as a historical consultant for the drama while also having the ability to write scripts has saved many directors' jobs.
There was no way Director Liu would let such a huge opportunity slide.
Since Tan Mo was the one who was asked to help, he could ask for something in return.
He was always the one who hesitated to ask for something for himself. Most of the things she asked for were for someone else, and usually it was something for her brother.
His professor had to accept Tan Mo's request so that he could help their own research team.
Writing the script for a play was not something Tan Mo liked, and he would be happy if he did not.
That was why Director Liu had to give him some benefits to make sure he would help him.
As for what Tan Mo asked, Tan Jinqi felt he knew what it was.
Most likely it was something that would benefit him.
As long as it had something to do with his three elder brothers, Tan Mo would always take the opportunity to help them.
“I think Tan Mo always does things like this?” Director Liu asked.
“Ya.” Tan Jinqi smiled, not intending to hide the facts. “Professor Tang must use his connection and request
Director Hou to accept me as his student so Mo Mo will attend his class. When Mo Mo won the Ancient Text Competition for Beijing University, the university rector told him that he would grant all his requests as long as it was in his power. That's how my two younger brothers started apprenticing under Liu Shengtai and He Haoyan. I believe that if a famous director like you asks for his help, he will definitely use it to benefit me rather than himself.”
Tan Jinqi then let out a long sigh.
Tears began to fill his eyes as his voice slowly turned hoarse.
I don't want him to wonder, though, what good deeds he and his brothers have done in their past lives so they have a loving sister who will do anything for them.
