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

77 Tailored

“Xiao Xiao, I heard that you won first place in the provincial Math Competition.” Yuan Ming had heard his work friend mention Yuan Xiao. She was publicly acknowledged as a genius dark horse in school.

“Yes, my math is alright.” Yuan Xiao’s attitude was very humble, but Sun Li felt a little uncomfortable.

“Xiao Xiao, you don’t have to put so much pressure on yourself. I still hope that you can be more carefree. It’s not bad to be like before.” Sun Li felt that Yuan Xiao was studying so hard because of her family. When she thought about how her daughter, who had been pampered since she was young, was now living such a hard life, Sun Li felt very upset.

Yuan Ming and Sun Li asked about Yuan Xiao’s life with concern. The atmosphere between the three of them was harmonious, and laughter could be heard from the room from time to time.

Yuan Wei had just returned home when she heard the lively discussion inside. She originally thought that it was a friend of her parents visiting, but when she entered and saw Yuan Xiao’s face, her heart turned cold.

“Dad, Mom, I’m back.” Yuan Wei glanced at Yuan Xiao, who was sitting on the sofa. She suppressed the dissatisfaction in her heart and said to her, “Xiao Xiao, why didn’t you tell me in advance that you were coming home? If I had known, I would have come back earlier.”

“I’m just here to visit my parents. Don’t we see each other every day in school?” Yuan Xiao noticed that Yuan Wei’s shoulders were trembling slightly. She knew that Yuan Wei was upset to see her with Yuan Ming and Sun Li.

“Since you’ve come to my house, it’s only right for you to tell me.” Yuan Wei could not suppress the anger in her heart when she saw Yuan Xiao’s obvious complacency.

“This is Xiao Xiao’s house too. She’s not an outsider.” Yuan Ming said unhappily, “How was your tutoring class today?”

Yuan Ming had found a tutor for Yuan Wei due to her declining grades.

“It’s pretty good.” Yuan Wei felt even more upset when she heard Yuan Ming clearly defending Yuan Xiao. The way she looked at Yuan Xiao was filled with hostility, but Yuan Xiao did not mind it at all. She did not care about her anger at all.

“Pay more attention. I don’t expect you to get first place, but at the very least, you have to ensure that your results are above average.” Yuan Ming felt uncomfortable when he saw Yuan Wei’s results drop so much, but he could not reprimand her too harshly.

“I’ll go back to my room first.” Yuan Wei felt that Yuan Ming was intentionally mocking her. Wasn’t it because Yuan Xiao had gotten first place? Yuan Wei coldly glanced at Yuan Xiao before returning to her room.

“I don’t know what’s wrong with this child recently. She always looks like she has something on her mind.” Sun Li saw that Yuan Wei obviously had something on her mind, but she had never been that close to her, and she was unwilling to tell her about it.

“Forget about her. This child thinks too much. We can’t guess what she’s thinking.”

Yuan Ming roughly knew why Yuan Wei had become like this. Ever since he told her about Sun Li’s pregnancy, Yuan Wei had always been troubled. Yuan Ming knew that she probably did not want him and Sun Li to have a second child, but it was impossible for him and Sun Li to stop having children because of Yuan Wei’s objection. Yuan Wei’s behavior could only mean that she was not sensible enough.

“Xiao Xiao, stay for dinner tonight.” Yuan Ming really did not want Yuan Xiao to leave.

“It’s alright, Dad. I’d better go back. I’ll come and see you guys in a while.” Yuan Xiao declined Sun Li and Yuan Ming’s invitation to stay. Her staying here would probably make the Shen couple feel terrible.

Under Yuan Xiao’s insistence, she still went home. As soon as she entered, she saw Feng Mei preparing food.

“Mom, why are you back so early today?” Yuan Xiao was a little surprised to see Feng Mei busy in the kitchen.

“Your father sprained his back. The restaurant closed in the afternoon.” Feng Mei scooped out a bowl of chicken soup and looked at Yuan Xiao. She asked with concern, “How’s Sun Li? Did it go smoothly when you went to see them today?”

Yuan Xiao nodded and walked forward to help Feng Mei carry the dishes. “It’s quite good. Now, everyone is waiting for the little one in her stomach to arrive.”

At this point, Feng Mei seemed to have suddenly thought of something and asked Yuan Xiao hesitantly, “Have you seen Wei Wei? How is she now?”

Feng Mei did not expect Yuan Wei to not contact her at all. In comparison, Yuan Xiao was more sensible.

“It’s quite good. She doesn’t have anything to worry about or any reason to live a bad life, don’t worry.” Of course, Yuan Xiao would not tell Feng Mei the truth. However, Yuan Wei deserved it.

“That’s good. Go wash your hands and call your father. Come and eat.” Feng Mei untied her apron and went to scoop rice.
