Chapter 141: Yuan Xiao’s Change
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Yuan Xiao’s appearance made Yuan Wei and Jiang Yan a little dissatisfied. Since she had already returned to the Shen family, she definitely had ill intentions by appearing here.
“Xiao Xiao has improved a lot since she returned to her home. Perhaps her mood has improved. She’s indeed more beautiful than before.” Yuan Wei was very dissatisfied with Yuan Xiao’s appearance and deliberately ostracized her with words.
“So according to what you’re saying, you’ve been in a bad mood?”
Yuan Xiao was not the type to swallow her anger. When she saw Yuan Wei’s dark expression, she felt much better.
“Stay at home for dinner later. Old Yuan has already gotten someone to prepare it.” Sun Li was very dissatisfied with Yuan Wei’s deliberate targeting of Yuan Xiao, but because Zheng Hui and Jiang Yan were also present, she did not say anything.
Zheng Hui had also seen the conflict between Yuan Wei and Yuan Xiao. With their identities, it was not strange for them to target each other.
However, Sun Li’s attitude surprised Zheng Hui. She thought that she would prefer the obedient and sensible Yuan Wei, but Sun Li was clearly more biased towards Yuan Xiao.
Moreover, in the following period of time, Zheng Hui confirmed this even more. Not only Sun Li, but even Yuan Ming clearly liked Yuan Xiao more.
Jiang Yan saw everything and was dissatisfied with the difference in treatment by the Yuan couple, but he did not dare to question them.
Throughout the meal, Yuan Ming and Sun Li helped Yuan Xiao pick up food on both sides, while Yuan Wei sat in the corner deiectedlv.
After Zheng Hui left the Yuan Family, she asked her son beside her in confusion, “Xiao Yan, do your Uncle Yuan and Auntie Sun like Yuan Xiao more?”
“How could that be?” Jiang Yan smiled and said in a disguised manner, “Yuan Wei is much more sensible than Yuan Xiao. Uncle Yuan and Auntie Sun must have taken better care of her because Yuan Xiao doesn’t come back much.
“I don’t think so. Yuan Xiao has changed a lot. From what your Uncle Yuan said, Yuan Xiao’s results in school are very good?”
“Her results are not bad.” Jiang Yan did not dare to lie and could only tell Zheng Hui the truth about Yuan Xiao in school.
“Looks like I misunderstood this child in the past…” Zheng Hui felt a little regretful. In the past, she had always felt that Yuan Xiao was brainless, so she did not like her much. Now, it seemed that Yuan Xiao was very outstanding in terms of appearance and ability. She was even much better than Yuan Wei.
Jiang Yan did not know how to speak up for Yuan Wei. Even he felt that Yuan Xiao was indeed very outstanding now.
“In the future, it’s better to build a good relationship with Xiao Xiao. I heard that many professors from many universities are paying attention to the competition where she won first place. Her results are good. If there’s a chance, let her help you more.”
Jiang Yan did not like to hear his mother praise Yuan Xiao. “What can she help me with? I’m already satisfied that she doesn’t pester me every day.”
Hearing Jiang Yan’s words, Zheng Hui was a little happy. “Does Xiao Xiao still pester you?”
Zheng Hui saw that Xiao Xiao barely looked at Jiang Yan today and thought that her attitude had changed.
“Yes, isn’t she always like that?” Jiang Yan gave an affirmative answer with a guilty conscience. He knew that Yuan Xiao had completely lost interest in him, but he did not want to lose face in front of his mother.
“Xiao Yan, treat Xiao Xiao better in the future. Look at the Yuan Family’s attitude towards her. That child will definitely develop in the future.” Zheng Hui felt that Yuan Xiao was completely different from before. From Yuan Ming and Sun Li’s attitude, it could be seen that not only did they not become distant because of Yuan Xiao’s background, it proved that Yuan Xiao must have good points.
“Mom, the college entrance examination is in a year. I’m not in the mood to think about this.” It was not that he did not want to approach Yuan Xiao, but Yuan Xiao might not give him a chance.
“Forget it. If you really focused on your studies, would your results have fallen so quickly?” Zheng Hui was originally unwilling to interfere with Jiang Yan’s results, but recently, his results had indeed dropped a lot. Even the teacher had specially contacted her and said that if Jiang Yan regressed, it would greatly affect his future university entrance examinations.
“I know my results have suffered, but don’t worry, I’ll definitely be able to catch up.” Jiang Yan’s expression was a little depressed. He knew that the gap between him and Yuan Xiao was getting wider and wider, but it was precisely because of this that he was not in the mood to study.
“I think you’re just too close to Yuan Wei. That child comes to look for you every day. How can it not affect your results?” Zheng Hui originally thought that Yuan Wei looked obedient and polite, but when it came to her son’s practical losses, Zheng Hui still blamed Yuan Wei.
“This has nothing to do with Xiao Wei..”
