No Way! The Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character Is Actually a Genius Big Shot

117 Child Engagement

“I’m not worried about their relationship. This is the first time I’m meeting Fang Yao’s grandfather. I’m a little nervous.”

Yuan Xiao was actually not really nervous. It was just that the system’s points mission was related to the Fang family’s old manor. Yuan Xiao felt that Grandpa Fang should be the key figure in the mission.

“Actually, you don’t have to worry. Grandpa Fang’s attitude towards boys and girls is completely different.” Meng Zhu comforted Yuan Xiao. “Grandpa Fang is a kind old man to me. He’s just stricter with Fang Yao and Fang Ming. You don’t have to be nervous.”

“Then do you know what Grandpa Fang likes or hates?”

!!

Hearing Yuan Xiao’s question, Meng Zhu thought about it carefully. “Grandpa Fang likes to play chess, fish, and fiddle with some flowers and plants. I’m not too sure about the rest…”

Meng Zhu did not know why Yuan Xiao wanted to know Grandpa Fang’s preferences, but she hoped that she could help Yuan Xiao, so she told Yuan Xiao everything she knew. “Grandpa Fang doesn’t like girls who are too delicate, but I don’t think you have a very pretentious personality. Grandpa won’t dislike you.”

Listening to Meng Zhu’s description, Yuan Xiao felt that Old Master Fang sounded quite easy to get along with. She was a little puzzled as to why Fang Yao was so resistant to going home. “Zhu Zhu, do you know why Fang Yao doesn’t want to come back to see his grandpa?”

Meng Zhu looked at Yuan Xiao and hesitated if she should tell her the truth. After thinking for a moment, she decided to tell her the truth.

“Actually, it’s not Fang Yao’s fault. Grandpa Fang wanted Fang Yao to join the army in the past. Auntie Wei Lan and Uncle Fang could not bear for their younger son to suffer, and Fang Yao did not have that intention, so this matter was left unsettled.”

Meng Zhu sighed softly. “At that time, although Grandpa Fang was unhappy, he did not force Fang Yao. However, during Grandpa Fang’s birthday, we all gathered together. There were also many old comrades of Grandpa Fang when he was young.”

Meng Zhu was young at the time. Although she did not have a good relationship with Fang Yao, she sympathized with his plight.

“Grandpa Fang has an old comrade with the surname Yue. They went through life and death together back then and have a good relationship. It’s also because of this that Grandpa Fang and Grandpa Yue arranged an engagement for the two grandchildren.”

“Engagement for children?” Yuan Xiao was a little surprised to hear this word. He thought that such a ridiculous thing would only happen in the past.

“The Yue family has a granddaughter who was born on the same day as Fang Yao. The two old men were so happy that they brought the two children together. However, no one took this matter seriously.”

Meng Zhu frowned helplessly. She felt that Fang Yao had gotten into this because of his outstanding looks.

“During Grandpa Fang’s birthday, the youngest granddaughter of the Yue family also came. I don’t know if she took a fancy to Fang Yao at that time, but the old master of the Yue family actually mentioned the marriage to Grandpa Fang after that day.”

Yuan Xiao felt that the possibility of the other party liking Fang Yao for his looks was very high. After all, this kid’s appearance was too deceptive. Even when she first met Fang Yao, she really thought that Fang Yao was very good-looking.

“But you can also guess that Fang Yao would not agree. Grandpa Fang cared about the feelings of his comrade and had a very unpleasant relationship with Fang Yao in the end.”

Meng Zhu spread her hands helplessly. Although Grandpa Fang’s thoughts were not old-fashioned, his feelings for his comrades were indeed unquestionable. The old master of the Yue family doted on his granddaughter very much, so this matter had yet to come to a conclusion. Fang Yao was also increasingly unwilling to return to the manor.

“I didn’t know that Fang Yao had such a past…” Yuan Xiao was surprised when he heard the main reason for the conflict between Fang Yao and his grandfather.

Initially, Yuan Xiao thought that the two of them simply did not get along because of their personalities. She did not expect such a thing to have happened. Yuan Xiao understood Fang Yao’s feelings.

“You’d better not tell Fang Yao that I told you about this.” Meng Zhu was not afraid of Fang Yao, but she did not want to cause unnecessary trouble.

“Don’t worry, I won’t mention this. Besides, Fang Yao didn’t do anything wrong.” Yuan Xiao was not angry. Instead, she felt that Fang Yao was quite charming.

“It’s good that you understand. But don’t worry, that little granddaughter of the Yue family isn’t in the manor now. It saves you the trouble of seeing her.”

Meng Zhu’s words made Yuan Xiao worried. Such words would usually be jinxed very quickly. However, Yuan Xiao was not afraid of the other party. As long as she and Fang Yao were true and sincere, nothing or anyone could stop them from being together.
