131 Drawing the Line
“But I really don’t like you.” Fang Yao wanted to say a few harsh words, but when he thought of Uncle Zhou’s previous instructions, he held back.
“Then who do you like? Could it really be that Yuan Xiao?” Yue Ping was still unconvinced. Living a pampered life made Yue Ping a little conceited.
“Yes, I like her very much. Moreover, we’re already a couple. Please behave yourself in the future.” Fang Yao wanted to draw a clear line with Yue Ping. He had tried his best to be tactful in his words. If it were according to his usual personality, he would have turned around and left long ago.
“What’s so good about her? Our families are compatible!” Yue Ping felt that only she could be worthy of the handsome Fang Yao with a good family background.
“Miss Yue, did you transmigrate here? What era are we in now? Why are you still so particular about our families being “compatible”?” Fang Yao was really out of patience. He was still in a hurry to go back and see Yuan Xiao. He was worried that Yuan Xiao would feel restrained without him.
“Wait!” Yue Ping still wanted to say something to Fang Yao, but Fang Yao actually left without looking back.
“Fang Yao, you can only be with me!” Yue Ping bit her lower lip hard. As long as she had her grandfather’s help, she still had a chance. “You don’t care about being compatible, but Grandpa might not think that way!”
Yue Ping had no other choice but to focus all her attention on Grandpa Fang. After some thought, Yue Ping walked towards the kitchen.
Fang Yao got rid of Yue Ping and rushed back to the front hall. He was worried that Yuan Xiao would be bored, but as soon as he entered, he saw Yuan Xiao who was surrounded by everyone.
“Grandpa, what are you guys talking about with Xiao Xiao?” Fang Yao looked at Yuan Xiao in confusion. He did not expect Yuan Xiao to be so close to everyone in just 10 minutes.
“I’m learning from Xiao Xiao. Sooner or later, I’ll win a round!” The smile on Grandpa Fang’s face did not fade, and he looked much kinder.
“Ah Yao, you don’t know, but Xiao Xiao just beat your brother three times in a row!” Yue Ze’s tone was a little exaggerated, but he was really surprised that Yuan Xiao could beat Fang Ming.
“Beat my brother?” Fang Yao looked at Fang Ming, who was sitting in front of the chessboard with a heavy expression. He could not believe it. “Xiao Xiao, you beat my brother in chess?”
Fang Yao looked at Yuan Xiao’s fair and beautiful face. Seeing her nod slightly, he asked suspiciously, “Brother, did you really lose to Xiao Xiao?”
Fang Ming was looking at the chess game just now. He could not see through Yuan Xiao’s chess moves. He had originally intended to give Yuan Xiao chances, but Fang Ming later realized that even if he went all out, it would be very difficult for him to defeat Yuan Xiao. This girl was simply a genius in chess.
“That’s right. I didn’t expect Xiao Xiao to be so good at chess.” Fang Ming sighed softly. It seemed that his curse of not finding a good opponent had been broken by Yuan Xiao.
“Ah Yao, it’s your honor to be friends with such a smart child!” Grandpa Fang thought highly of Yuan Xiao. This girl looked young, but in terms of behavior and ability, she had merits that her peers did not have.
“Grandfather, you’re right. I’ll cherish this honor.” Fang Yao looked at Yuan Xiao meaningfully. Fang Yao was happier than anyone else that his grandfather liked Yuan Xiao.
“Good child, you have to come and play with me often when you have time. If my old friends see your ability, they might be envious of me!” Grandpa Fang liked Yuan Xiao very much, not only because of her chess skills, but also because of her obedient and sensible personality.
“Alright, Grandpa. If you want to play chess, I’ll accompany you anytime.” A sweet smile appeared on Yuan Xiao’s face. Grandpa Fang’s personality was very straightforward. Yuan Xiao could tell that he had a good impression of her and was very happy.
[Congratulations, Host! Your points reward has been issued. Your current points balance is 210!]
Hearing the crisp electronic notification in his mind, Yuan Xiao realized that her points mission had been completed.
Yuan Xiao followed behind Grandpa Fang. He happily told Yuan Xiao about the past. Yuan Xiao did not hate these things and instead, there were some things that would arouse her curiosity. Therefore, Yuan Xiao enjoyed chatting with Grandpa Fang.
“Your little girlfriend is quite impressive. She settled the old man in just a few minutes. She’s very important to Grandpa Fang now.”
Yue Ze looked at Yuan Xiao, who was chatting and laughing with Grandpa Fang, and felt that Fang Yao’s future would not be easy. In Yue Ze’s heart, a smart girl like Yuan Xiao was the most difficult to deal with.
