Chapter 269: Xiang Huai’s Little Idol Has Fallen (3)
Just as Xue Yani was about to continue, Xue Xi suddenly said, “Auntie, what gift did you prepare for Grandpa? Do you need my help to bring it up?”
Xue Yani shut her mouth.
She smiled awkwardly and said, “It’s just a small gift. Heh, heh... I’ll go see if Second Sister-in-law needs any help.”
Afraid that Xue Xi would continue asking, she slipped away.
Sun Ruoruo, on the other hand, walked up to Xue Yao and tried to suck up to her. “Sister Yaoyao, Fan Han is really handso! Let’s not talk about anything else, his looks alone are probably one of the best in Bin City, right?”
After saying that, she turned to look at Xue Xi and said, “Look at Xue Xi. Although she’s prettier than you, so what?”
Xue Yao’s face froze when she heard this.
Oblivious, Sun Ruoruo continued, “But the boyfriend she found definitely can’t be as handso as your fiancé!”
Xue Yao’s face darkened.
Even before, everyone had wanted to know what Xue Xi’s pretty boy looked like. Later, when they t, soone secretly took a side profile photo and posted it online.
The side of his face, which was extrely attractive, beca the topic of discussion in the school. Everyone said that he was simply too handso, even more so than celebrities!
Fan Han was also handso and sunny, but he was still inferior to that person.
Sun Ruoruo had no idea that her flattery had fallen far from the target. She continued, “Also, is that hooligan a provision store owner? How can he be better than Fan Han? Fan Han can even participate in the Golden Autumn Camp! Once the results of the National Mathematical Olympiad are out, he will definitely be able to enter the top 60!”
Xue Yao’s anger finally cald down. She felt that Sun Ruoruo had finally hit the nail on the head.
No matter how good-looking that gigolo was, could he be as capable as Fan Han?
However, the mont she said this, Fan Han’s face darkened.
This group of people might not know, but how could Fan Han, who had gone to the Golden Autumn Camp with them, not know that Xiang Huai was the Chinese genius who had won an international IMO gold dal at the age of 13?
Sun Ruoruo’s words seed to be mocking him!
Xue Yao actually did not object and allowed her to continue...
Fan Han suddenly felt sick and frustrated, especially when the people around him were praising him and saying that Xue Yao was blessed. Xue Xi had missed out on such words...
He suddenly said, “Don’t gossip about others behind their backs and slander them.”
After chiding them, he walked to the side, leaving Sun Ruoruo and Xue Yao standing there awkwardly.
Xue Yao did not expect Fan Han to embarrass her in front of others. Her expression turned ugly.
However, Sun Ruoruo said, “Wow, Fan Han is actually a gentleman. He is indeed a good person!”
Xue Yao: “...”
At this mont, the door suddenly opened.
Everyone looked over and saw Qian Zheng walking in. Liu Yiqiu was standing beside her and smiling ingratiatingly. She greeted loudly, “Yaoyao!”
Xue Yao instantly understood that this person’s identity was extraordinary. She jogged over and heard Liu Yiqiu say, “This is Ms. Qian. Please entertain her!”
Ms. Qian... That was Qian Xin’s younger sister!
If she could build a good relationship with Ms. Qian, the Fan family would definitely think highly of her. Hence, Xue Yao instantly smiled. “Ms. Qian, welco to my house. I’ll bring you around to take a look.”
Qian Zheng was willful, had a bad temper, and was arrogant. These were all spread during Mrs. Xia’s banquet before she’d arrived.
Li Hanlei was sent away because she offended her.
Hence, Xue Yao thought that this person would not fancy her.
Qian Zheng recalled that Xue Yao was Xue Xi’s younger cousin, but she felt that this person was much worse than Sister Xi and was a little unpresentable. However, her attitude toward her was still considered good and she gave her a friendly smile.
This smile made Xue Yao feel a little overwheld. “Ms. Qian, do you want to eat sothing? I’ll bring you to get sothing to eat!”
Qian Zheng nodded. “Sure.”
Xue Yao led Qian Zheng forward and walked to the dessert table. Qian Zheng casually ate two pieces of cake while Xue Yao racked her brains to think of an interesting topic to chat with her. Qian Zheng smiled cooperatively.
The two of them looked quite harmonious.
In the distance, Liu Yiqiu, who was looking at them, revealed a satisfied smile.
Fan Han’s parents also brought Fan Han to Liu Yiqiu’s side. Looking at Xue Yao and Qian Zheng playing there, they then looked at Xue Xi, who was sitting on the sofa, playing with her phone. No one knew what she was doing.
She did not socialize much at such a crucial mont and instead kept staring at her phone.
Mrs. Fan could not help but purse her lips and say to Fan Han, “Do you see that? What’s the use of Xue Xi being good? She doesn’t have any foresight at all! Marriage is a good thing because it combines two families. If you were to be with her, it would be fine if her maternal grandmother’s family did not have any connections other than the Xue family. However, she’s not even presentable. She’s full of petty tricks! She’s not generous at all! You’re better off with Xue Yao. At least she can help you out with diplomacy as your wife!”
Fan Han beca even more annoyed when he heard this.
From his point of view, Xue Yao’s attitude was quite good, but it was a little too flattering.
However, Xue Xi was neither servile nor overbearing. He recalled that when she was in the capital, the people she interacted with were all people like Feng Xingshen, a mathematician...
He frowned.
As soon as Mrs. Fan finished speaking to Fan Han, she also ran to Liu Yiqiu and said, “Your child is really good. She has a strong foundation and can even handle soone as hard to deal with as Ms. Qian. Unlike so people from an orphanage, whose interpersonal relationships are so poor...”
Liu Yiqiu instantly smiled and raised her head proudly. “Our Yaoyao is different. They can’t be compared... She grew up under our noses.”
Mrs. Fan nodded. “I feel that it’s fortunate that the marriage partner was changed to your family’s daughter.”
Liu Yiqiu was even more smug.
The two of them beca much more intimate.
Ever since the Liu family had been cheated of their money by the fake Lu Chao, the Fan family had distanced themselves from Liu Yiqiu. They still ca to the birthday banquet today, and when they first arrived, they had been a little arrogant.
However, because Xue Yao and Qian Zheng had spoken, their family’s attitude changed drastically.
When Liu Yiqiu saw this, she did not feel that the Fan family was too powerful. Instead, she felt a little smug.
After parting with Mrs. Fan, she walked to Ye Li and Xue Xi and said in a lecturing tone, “Sister-in-law, it’s not that I want to criticize you, but look at Xixi. She only knows how to play with her phone. What kind of manners are those? She’s unlike our Yaoyao, who can even handle such an important guest like Ms. Qian.”
Xue Yao walked over with Qian Zheng.
