Chapter 371: You Were Not There to See How Obscene They Were

Yuan Keqing was willing to sacrifice this much for him.

And she even went the extra mile to hide the fact that he called Tan Mo's name after barging into her villa.

As it happened, her readiness to keep his actions a secret to that extent was beyond his expectations.

"But how did brother Keli get the access card to your villa, anyway?" Tan Mo queried after hearing Yuan Keqing's narration.

Upon hearing that, everyone turned their heads in the voice's direction and saw Wei Zhiqian and Tan Mo in the room.

"Mo Mo!" Wei Keli exclaimed. "Mo Mo, I . . . "

Tan Mo turned her gaze away from him and ignored him utterly.

However, this time, Li Xiangrong and Wei Zhijian did not feel anything wrong with Tan Mo's behavior.

In fact, her reaction was natural and authentic.

She was Wei Keli's childhood friend since young. So by rights, she should have a close relationship with him.

Yet, she discovered that Wei Keli hugged her cousin sister in her birthday suit in the hot spring.

Hence, it would be natural for her to get furious. Nothing was out of place.

After disregarding Wei Keli, Tan Mo asked, "You were the one who passed the access card in my mother's possession to her, right? Then, what about the one brother Keli's holding? How in the world did he even get his hand on your card?"

At that, Yuan Keqing gaped her mouth open. She was stupefied and could not answer the question.

Then she turned to look at Wei Keli.

"I . . . " Yuan Keqing paused, at a loss for words. She lowered her head while her clasped hands that were pressed against her knees clenched tighter.

"Did you give it to him?" Xu Mingzhen questioned.

"No!" Yuan Keqing denied instantly. She would not allow herself to be blamed unjustly.

Her narrative earlier was spoken as a cover-up for Wei Keli. It was as clear as daylight to everyone in the room.

Besides, she could seize the chance to express her feelings toward Wei Keli publicly. It was killing two birds with one stone.

But it was not the case for Tan Mo and Xu Mingzhen's question.

If she admitted that she was the one who passed her access card to Wei Keli, it would be the same as saying that she intended to seduce the latter.

Nevertheless, she did not do such a thing.

Thus, she would never take the blame for him.

She would be looked down upon should she admit it—a target of scorn. Others would reckon her as a ditzy and vampish woman.

Her initial purpose was to move Wei Keli's heart. She did not plan to be made a scapegoat. After all, she was never such a selfless person, to begin with.

"The access card . . . I . . . " Yuan Keqing was at her wits' end as to what to do. Yet, she dared not shift the responsibility onto Wei Keli.

Otherwise, her previous effort to touch Wei Keli would be wasted.

Therefore, Yuan Keqing chose to remain silent and wailed.

At that, Xu Mingzhen cocked her brows and retorted, "I'm just asking why Keli is holding your access card. You only need to answer yes or no to the question—whether you passed him your villa's card or not? So why have you started crying?
