Chapter 195 Preference
Chapter 195 Preference
Before the Yu family left, Xiao Yanting came to the East Garden.
The handsome and elegant Mr. Xiao always attracts a lot of attention.
He walked into the reception room, greeted his grandparents, and then politely greeted the two elders of the Xiao family.
Xiao Wenqin pointed at his grandson and introduced him, "Old Yu, this is our Yan Ting, a very outstanding child. Look, I didn't lie to you."
Yu Bonan glanced at the young man in front of him and didn't say anything, as he didn't want to hit someone who smiled at him.
Xiao Yanting had a faint smile on his face. "Grandpa Yu, Grandma Yu, congratulations on finding your relatives. Speaking of which, Ning Ning and I also have a very good relationship. We knew each other before and were desk mates for three years."
There was nothing wrong with what he said, even if it was a way of getting close to her. Today, the protagonist of the Yu family was Fu Runing, and he brought up the fact that he had a good relationship with her in the past, which was a tactic to bring them closer.
However, Fu Runing frowned slightly.
She hadn't seen Xiao Yanting in the three years since she married into the Xiao family, and the two had no interaction.
The next time they met was when he took over as CEO of Yusong Media. He didn't call her sister-in-law or her name, but Manager Fu.
Now he calls her by her name, and it's a nickname.
Fu Runing always felt that something was strange.
When Old Lady Yu saw Xiao Yanting, who was handsome, tall, and young, she couldn't help but think that although the mother was not that great, the son she gave birth to was not bad.
Old Mrs. Yu continued the conversation, "Were you in the same class as our Ningning?"
"Yes." Xiao Yanting responded politely.
Yu Songyan, who was standing next to him, stared at the boy in front of him with a less friendly look.
He spoke slowly, "If I remember correctly, you are two years younger than Ning Ning. There is no way you two could be desk mates, right?"
Xiao Yanting explained calmly, "I skipped a grade in elementary school, so she and I were in the same class, and we happened to sit at the same table."
"What a coincidence?" Old Mrs. Yu also became interested and turned around to look at Fu Runing with a smile.
When Fu Runing saw the old lady's expression, she knew that she probably had a good impression of Xiao Yanting and wanted to hear her opinion.
"Yes, this is my deskmate in junior high school. He was the youngest student in our class, but he always got first place in the exams. He was considered undervalued in our school, but he didn't care. He could be anywhere. Besides, all the girls in school liked him very much when he was in school."
Hearing this, Xiao Yanting curled his lips slightly, his brows gentle and calm.
Xiao Yanting half-jokingly said, "You make it sound like I'm a playboy, but I'm not."
After these words were spoken, the atmosphere became much more relaxed.
Fu Runing also smiled, "That's right, grandma. I guarantee that he is not unfaithful at all, nor has he fallen in love prematurely. He has always been a good boy."
The two elders of the Xiao family didn't know about this. This was the first time they heard that the two of them had such an intersection.
During these three years, Xiao Yanting was not in Shengzhou all year round and was unaware of this connection.
The atmosphere eased with Xiao Yanting's arrival.
Yu Songyan's face unconsciously darkened.
He glanced at the time on his watch and said slowly, "Grandpa and grandma, are we really going to have dinner here today?"
Only then did Mrs. Yu realize that it was getting late.
"That's right. It's getting late. Let's just stop here today and not bother others anymore."
Song Huizhen grabbed Old Lady Yu and said quickly, "Why are you bothering me? It's so late today, and I've asked the kitchen to prepare your Nancheng dishes. It's okay to stay for a quick meal. There's no need to rush."
Yu Songyan's hands tightened slightly behind his back, but he joked without showing any signs of it: "We came here in a hurry today and didn't bring any gifts. Now we're staying to eat for free. If this gets out, people will laugh at us, the Yu family, for being rude."
The two elders of the Yu family knew what was going on. They had come here to cause trouble, so they had no intention of staying for dinner.
After being refused several times, Song Huizhen did not try to keep him.
The group left East Garden.
Xiao Yanting saw them off and opened the car door for Old Lady Yu.
The old lady had a good impression of this polite young man.
Fu Runing also sat in the back seat and saw Xiao Yanting leaning against the car door. The two of them exchanged glances briefly.
The light inside the car was dim, and Xiao Yanting was standing in a backlit position, so Fu Runing couldn't see the emotions in his eyes.
His voice was clear and charming, "Goodbye, deskmate."
Fu Runing curled her lips and smiled, "Goodbye."
The address he used was classmate, which was outside the boundaries and acceptable to her.
As the car door closed, Yu Songyan drove away quickly.
……
In the car, Old Mrs. Yu mentioned Xiao Yanting again.
"Ning Ning, how is your former brother-in-law?"
Before Fu Runing could answer, Yu Songyan spoke first: "Grandma, can you please be quiet? I've already said that your granddaughter doesn't like Xiao Yanting, so why are you still asking about this?"
"Can't I just ask casually?" Mrs. Yu pondered, then added, "I'm arranging a marriage for your sister, why are you reacting so strongly?"
Yu Songyan said casually, "Why am I reacting so strongly? This is how the Xiao family is. Look at his brother, he's like a psychopath. He beat me up before we even had a few words. And look at his mother, she's like that too. You should think carefully about this marriage."
"Yu Songyan, I only said one sentence, and you refuted it with ten sentences. I think you should just shut up." Old Mrs. Yu retorted.
Yu Songyan didn't say anything and concentrated on driving.
Fu Runing only heard later that Xiao Jingting and Yu Songyan started fighting as soon as they met. As for how the fight started, neither of them gave any details.
But later, every time Yu Songyan mentioned Xiao Jingting, he would definitely start with "lunatic" and there was no other way to call him that.
In fact, what Yu Songyan said is right. Isn’t Xiao Jingting a psychopath?
It’s just hard to imagine when Xiao Jingting would be so impulsive as to fight with a man he had never met right at his doorstep.
If it were Xiaoting, I could still imagine it.
This Xiao Jingting...
It’s still hard to imagine that scene.
Yu Bonan scolded lightly: "You can't even win a fight, what else can you do?"
After being poked by the old man, Yu Songyan felt a dull pain in the wound at the corner of his mouth.
Generally speaking, if you don't fight to the death, you'll end up getting hit in the face.
Whoever has more bruises on his face is the loser.
Yu Songyan gritted his teeth and said unwillingly, "Grandpa, I'm a law-abiding citizen. Who would be like those psychopaths who just come up and attack without asking any questions? That's why I say the Xiao family really can't consider this super-male gene."
In fact, it was Yu Songyan who started the fight that day. Who knew what was wrong with that lunatic that day? No matter how you try to talk to him nicely, he couldn't control his anger.
But the frustration lies in this: he was the one who started the fight, but ended up not getting anything in return. This would be difficult for anyone to accept.
So whenever he met Xiao Jingting, he always had a bad face. In his mind, this man had already been eliminated and was not qualified to be his brother-in-law. Of course, that psychotic brother was definitely not qualified either.
Fu Runing held back her laughter and didn't join in the conversation.
The street lights outside the car window flowed quickly behind me, and the night view of Shengzhou was luxurious and gorgeous.
At this moment, her heart was at peace for the first time in a long time, a feeling that was hard to describe in words.
It felt like when her father and second uncle helped her out when she was a child.
With the support of adults and her family standing behind her, she was able to spend a carefree and wonderful childhood.
It was just that the family changes three years ago had smoothed down her temper a little.
Can't blame anyone, just life moves on.
If it weren't for this trip today, she would have thought she had lost her temper long ago.
It’s really a blessing to be loved by family.
Yu Songyan sent Fu Runing home and picked up his mother, and they planned to return to South City.
Before leaving, Mrs. Yu held Fu Runing's hand and said reluctantly, "Ningning, grandma and grandpa came in a hurry this time, and we have other things to do at home. We will come to see you when we are free, or wait until your father is better and bring him to our home in Nancheng to play."
Old Mrs. Yu knew that Fu Zhangnan was in poor health, so she would not ask Fu Runing to go back to South City with them.
Fu Runing hugged the old lady and said, "Okay, we'll meet next time."
There is always a sense of loss when parting.
There were tears in the eyes of both the grandfather and the grandson.
Fu Runing was reluctant to see her grandparents leave, but she couldn't leave now and still wanted to spend more time with her father.
Fu Runing whispered in her ear, "Grandma, don't be like this. It's not like we won't see each other again."
"Oh, yes, there are still many days to come." Old Mrs. Yu patted her on the back, suppressing her emotions before parting.
Yu Songyan waved to Fu Runing and said, "Brother, I'll come to see you next time."
Afterwards, the Yu family's car drove out of the Fu family's yard.
The night is getting darker.
