51 He’s Very Cute
“That’s true. Looks like I have to make Ah Yao pay more attention to the young lady in the future. Otherwise, if his wife is snatched away, Ah Yao will be heartbroken.”
Wei Lan felt that her younger son was definitely a loyal person when it came to relationships. After so many years, she had never seen him have any feelings for any girl. Yuan Xiao must be extraordinary to him.
“Achoo!” Fang Yao, who was sitting in the back row with Yuan Xiao, sneezed.
“What’s wrong? Did you catch a cold?” Yuan Xiao glanced at the boy beside her and asked with concern.
“No, my parents must be talking about me now.” Fang Yao rubbed his nose. He felt that with his parents’ personality, they would definitely misunderstand his relationship with Yuan Xiao.
“I think Uncle and Auntie are nice people. Don’t be so hostile to them.” Yuan Xiao knew that Fang Yao was just not too good at expressing himself, but he actually cared about his parents.
“They didn’t care much about me in the past. Their thoughts were all on my brother. It’s too late to care about me now!” Fang Yao had always misunderstood his parents. He felt that in his parents’ hearts, there was only the smart and outstanding Fang Ming, and he was just an existence that annoyed them.
“Fang Yao, how old are you?”
Yuan Xiao had a smile on her face. He felt that Fang Yao was a little childish.
“I’ll be 18 after this year. Why?” Fang Yao did not notice the smile on Yuan Xiao’s face.
“Really? I thought you were eight years old.” Yuan Xiao heard the driver in the front seat laugh.
“Uncle Zhang, don’t laugh at me!” Fang Yao was a little embarrassed.
Uncle Zhang looked at Fang Yao’s slightly red face in the rearview mirror and could not help but smile. “Miss Yuan, this is the first time Ah Yao has been so obedient. He’s the little devil of our Fang family. No one dares to say that about him.”
Yuan Xiao smiled at Uncle Zhang. “Really? That’s because you don’t know Fang Yao well enough. He’s actually very cute and not scary at all.”
Fang Yao’s face turned redder and redder. If not for the driver, he would not have let Yuan Xiao off so easily.
“Are you coming to tutor me tomorrow?” Fang Yao looked at Yuan Xiao’s fair side profile. The redness on his face had yet to fade.
“Why don’t you come to my place? My parents have to go to the restaurant tomorrow. There’s no one at my place.”
After Yuan Xiao finished speaking, she saw Fang Yao silently lowering his head. “What’s wrong? Is it inconvenient?”
“Alright, I’ll go over tomorrow morning.” Fang Yao did not know what Yuan Xiao’s attitude towards him was, but he felt that their relationship seemed to have become closer.
Yuan Xiao noticed that Fang Yao was a little embarrassed, but she did not expose him. After all, he was only a 17 or 18-year-old boy. He was quite cute when he was embarrassed.
After returning home, Yuan Xiao realized that Shen Hai and Feng Mei seemed to have been waiting for her.
“Dad, Mom, didn’t I say that I would go to Fang Yao’s house today? Why aren’t you resting?” Yuan Xiao asked her parents who were sitting on the sofa after changing her shoes.
“Your mother is just worrying for nothing. I’ve already told her that our daughter is going to her classmate’s house to learn how to play the piano. She’s just worried.” Shen Hai put away the newspaper in his hand and looked at Yuan Xiao, who had returned, before he was relieved.
“Don’t listen to your father.” Feng Mei went forward and took Yuan Xiao’s backpack. “He’s worried. He wanted to call you just now, but I didn’t let him disturb you.”
After being exposed by Feng Mei, Shen Hai coughed unnaturally and pulled Yuan Xiao to sit on the sofa. After hesitating for a while, he asked, “Xiao Xiao, when did you know your classmate?”
Yuan Xiao looked at the concerned Shen Hai in front of her and felt very warm. Now, her relationship with the Shen couple was getting closer.
“I met him in school. He’s a year older than me.”
Hearing Yuan Xiao’s words, Shen Hai nodded thoughtfully.
Feng Mei came out from the kitchen with a glass of milk and handed it to Yuan Xiao. “That child is quite good-looking, but his behavior looks a little scary. What does his family do? Why did he bring so many people that day?”
Yuan Xiao knew that Fang Yao had probably left a bad impression on her parents. He wanted to dislocate someone else’s arm just because of a disagreement. It was impossible for honest people like Feng Mei and Shen Hai to understand.
“His family is in business.” Yuan Xiao thought for a moment and explained to Feng Mei, “He has an older brother who is a famous doctor in the city hospital. His family is quite nice. I saw them all today.”
Yuan Xiao did not know if her words would improve her parents’ impression of Fang Yao. Fang Yao’s family was indeed not bad, so she was not lying.
