133 Taking the Initiative
Seeing that Fang Yao did not react, Fang Ming said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, “Don’t you like Head Chef Li’s dishes the most? His fish soup is also superb. Try it quickly.”
Hearing his brother’s words, Fang Yao’s eyes widened unconsciously. He picked up the spoon beside him and took a sip of the fish soup in front of him.
It was indeed Head Chef Li’s cooking. Fang Yao used to like his seafood soup the most. It was indeed similar to this fish soup.
It seemed that Yue Ping was lying just now, and Grandpa Fang would definitely find out. After all, he had been eating Head Chef Li’s food for longer than Fang Ming and Fang Yao.
However, Yue Ping did not know that her lie had been discovered by everyone.
In the kitchen just now, Yue Ping only sat for a while and did not participate in making fish soup at all.
Seeing that Fang Yao seemed to like to drink fish soup, Yue Ping was very happy. It seemed that Fang Yao did not hate her that much. Otherwise, he would not have eaten her food.
Yuan Xiao realized that Yue Ping had been staring at Fang Yao at the dining table. She felt a little uncomfortable. Although Yuan Xiao knew that Fang Yao would not like Yue Ping, seeing Fang Yao being stared at made her feel that someone was coveting his belongings.
Everyone finished their meal with their own thoughts. Yue Ping chatted with Grandpa Fang the entire time. Yuan Xiao was too lazy to get involved, so she took a walk in the small garden with Meng Zhu.
“Xiao Xiao, do you think Yue Ping still hasn’t given up on Fang Yao?” Meng Zhu also saw the way Yue Ping looked at Fang Yao at the dining table. Even she felt disgusted, let alone Fang Yao’s girlfriend, Yuan Xiao.
“I think so. Judging from how much she wants to perform in front of Grandpa Fang, other than wanting to marry Fang Yao, there shouldn’t be any other reason, right?” Yuan Xiao felt that Yue Ping was a little pitiful. She fell in love with someone who would never respond to her. Thinking about it, it was indeed a little miserable.
“It’s all Fang Yao’s fault for not rejecting her thoroughly!” Meng Zhu rolled her eyes and whispered to Yuan Xiao, “Xiao Xiao, why don’t you consider someone else? I know quite a few outstanding young men when I was overseas. Do you want me to introduce a few to you?”
Yuan Xiao shook her head with a smile and said to Meng Zhu, “Forget it. If Fang Yao finds out that I contacted another boy in private, he’ll be furious.”
As soon as Yuan Xiao finished speaking, he felt a chill behind her. Fang Yao’s resentful voice sounded from behind. “Xiao Xiao, who are you trying to contact?”
“Who are you trying to scare?!” Meng Zhu patted Fang Yao hard and advised Yuan Xiao, “I really have a lot of good resources. Xiao Xiao, think about it. Don’t give up an entire forest for a tree!”
Fang Yao was so angry that he wanted to hit Meng Zhu. However, as if she had a premonition, she skipped towards Fang Ming and Yue Ze. She did not forget to turn around and make a face at Fang Yao.
“This girl is too much!” Fang Yao looked at Yuan Xiao worriedly and asked unhappily, “What did Meng Zhu say to you? You guys were chatting so happily.”
“It’s nothing. Don’t be so hostile to Zhu Zhu. Your relationship doesn’t have to be so tense.” Yuan Xiao felt that Fang Yao and Meng Zhu would quarrel as soon as they met. It wouldn’t be good if this continued. Yuan Xiao hoped that Fang Yao could take a step back first.
“If it wasn’t for the fact that she’s always looking for trouble, I wouldn’t have targeted her.” Fang Yao was unwilling, but he still comforted Yuan Xiao. “Don’t worry, I won’t lower myself to her level.”
Yuan Xiao saw that Fang Yao’s attitude was still alright and hurriedly added, “That’s right. Zhu Zhu is still a girl after all. Try to take care of her as much as possible.”
Due to Yuan Xiao and Meng Zhu’s close relationship, Fang Yao did not dare to get into a conflict with Meng Zhu again. He was afraid that she would secretly complain to Yuan Xiao behind his back.
Fang Yao glanced at Meng Zhu, who was not far away. After some hesitation, he decided to tell Yuan Xiao about Yue Ping.
“Xiao Xiao, I met Yue Ping just now when I left the front hall to go to the kitchen.” Fang Yao’s expression was serious. Although he was very honest in his heart, he still felt that he had done something wrong and did not dare to look Yuan Xiao in the eye.
Yuan Xiao knew that Yue Ping had gone out for a while when she was playing chess with Grandpa Fang, but she did not know that she had gone to look for Fang Yao.
Yuan Xiao did not say anything. Instead, she quietly waited for Fang Yao to speak.
“She confessed to me, but I’ve already rejected her.”
Fang Yao nervously observed Yuan Xiao’s expression and realized that she did not have any reaction. He could not help but ask, “Xiao Xiao, I’ve already told Yue Ping that you’re my girlfriend. I hope she won’t disturb us anymore. You won’t be angry, right?”
