Rebirth: She is Ready for a Counterattack! Chapter 433 - 432: What Truly Troubles the Old Master

Now, the two families are not on the sa level at all. She spent so much effort, it was naturally not to destroy Gu Xiaoqing.

She once told Gu Xiaoqing that if Gu Xiaoqing wasn’t a... they could be good friends. What this ant was that if Gu Xiaoqing wasn’t a businessperson and didn’t choose business, then she would certainly get along with Gu Xiaoqing.

Now, everything she does is like how Gu Xiaoqing tested her sister’s boyfriend, Shang Wenming, back then.

What was the outco for Shang Wenming, who harbored ill intentions?

If Gu Xiaoqing isn’t truly sincere with Fang Shaohan, then suffering such a blow is normal. In this world, there’s no reason you can test others without being tested yourself.

As for how to get along in the future if they beco a family?

This is the brilliance of Fang Shaohan’s sister-in-law’s tactics. Even though she knew Fang Shaohan was encouraging Gu Xiaoqing, she didn’t stop it. And even though she knew He Cui, the future mother-in-law, supported Gu Xiaoqing, she didn’t ddle in it.

This way, Gu Xiaoqing and Fang Shaohan still have room to maneuver.

As for herself, she had long planned that if Gu Xiaoqing could really pass her test, she would actively ask for Gu Xiaoqing’s forgiveness and bear all the consequences alone, whether Gu Xiaoqing resents or seeks revenge.

Even though this is illogical, akin to hitting soone and then apologizing, she would rather be unreasonable like this to see what kind of person Gu Xiaoqing truly is.

Observing the current attitude and the fact she hasn’t taken further action since Gu Xiaoqing left, shows she greatly appreciates Gu Xiaoqing.

Returning ho, Fang Shaohan’s sister-in-law entered Mr. Fang’s study.

Mr. Fang slowly opened his eyes and said in a slightly tired voice, "Thank you for your hard work, Xiao Xue. Ultimately, the Fang family is at a transitional phase."

"Dad, you dramatize things. Shaohan and the others will certainly grow into capable adults. As you often say, the future of the nation is with the children. The future of the Fang Family, is also with them."

Fang Shaohan’s sister-in-law changed her cold expression into a friendly smile, tidying up the ssy books on the desk while comforting the old man.

"No, no, no, the eldest died young, and among these younger brothers and sisters, none are promising. You have to handle all these unpromising things at such a young age. Back then, Xiao Wu took a bullet for and sacrificed himself. Now, his daughter supports the whole family for . In the end, we owe you..."

"You raised and there’s a husband like Shaoyang. I truly feel lucky to be with the Fang Family."

Fang Shaohan’s sister-in-law said with a smile.

Once soone has found their belonging in their heart, they beco strong.

Gu Xiaoqing is like this, and so is Fang Zhixue.

Because of their strength, they don’t care about the burdens they carry. They care more about the people and family they cherish.

"What do you think of this Gu Xiaoqing?"

The old man looked at Fang Shaohan’s sister-in-law—Fang Zhixue. Even Fang Shaohan’s father, Fang Jianguo, couldn’t sway the old man’s opinion.

Only Fang Zhixue, who married the old man’s grandson—Fang Shaoqiang, had the influence to persuade him.

Although Fang Zhixue has the surna Fang, she was actually the daughter of Squad Leader Wu, who was once Mr. Fang’s guard.

Squad Leader Wu always followed Mr. Fang, as a close confidant.

Later, during a retreat, Xiao Wu took a bullet for Mr. Fang and died on the battlefield.

To show gratitude, Mr. Fang brought Xiao Wu’s family to Beijing after liberation. In the period of turmoil post-liberation, Xiao Wu’s wife was persecuted due to her background and eventually died unjustly.

Mr. Fang, disregarding everything, took Wu Zhixue in, claiming her as his daughter with his gun in hand, but to avoid trouble, changed her surna to Fang.

In fact, Fang Zhixue was about the sa age as the old man’s grandson.

The old man cherished Fang Zhixue and watched as she grew older without a partner.

Though Fang Zhixue was a year or two older than the eldest grandson, he thought they were well-matched and arranged the marriage.

Mr. Fang was a rough-edged man, essentially a farr by nature, who didn’t care about differences in generations.

Besides, after years in the army, he’s killed more people than Fang Shaonan has seen ants. Who would dare critique the marriage? His gun wouldn’t allow it.

That was the old man’s authority back then!

In fact, Fang Zhixue and Fang Shaoqiang grew up together. She was like an elder sister always accompanying Fang Shaoqiang.

Why did she never find a suitable partner? It wasn’t for lack of proposals, but she couldn’t imagine marrying another man and leaving the life and large family of Fang Shaoqiang’s behind.

Ti passed and unexpectedly, her wish ca true.

Even if so family mbers had minor complaints, if the old man slamd his gun on the table, who dared voice them?

Truthfully, it was because Mr. Fang was a simple, rough man, not bound by elder or younger conventions, that Fang Zhixue could have her way.

Now, however, Mr. Fang’s origins have beco a barrier for Gu Xiaoqing and Fang Shaohan.

Sotis, Fang Zhixue wishes Gu Xiaoqing would give up business; it would be much easier that way.

But she feels that even if she said this, Gu Xiaoqing wouldn’t agree.

Because they are the sa kind of people.

"Xiao Xue? Xiao Xue?"

"Ah? What’s up, Grandpa?"

"I asked, how is this Gu Xiaoqing? Why were you daydreaming? Is there sothing you find hard to tell ?"

The wrinkles on the old man’s face knit together, giving an unexpectedly kind appearance.

"No, actually, I personally admire Gu Xiaoqing a lot. She can pick herself up again in this matter, analyze reasonably, and not go against us.

Moreover, she prefers to bear the bla herself, leave ho, and not affect us and the Gu Family internally. I think she has a broad perspective. As you often say, the leader you ntioned falls and rises thrice, which is remarkable. I believe Gu Xiaoqing is quite capable."

"You’re right, I like rural kids with tenacity who can endure hardships. I said I should’ve sent Fang Shaonan and the others to the village, letting them toughen up for a few years to understand the value of hard-earned achievents.

Alas, I an... if she could delve into research and enter a research institute to contribute to the country, I’d fully support this marriage. Having such an intellectual marry into our family brings honor."

Mr. Fang’s thoughts are indeed unique. Gu Xiaoqing probably never imagined this could be the old man’s personality.

Originally assuming prominent families emphasize lineage and heritage, Mr. Fang’s requirents are so simple: as long as one has real capabilities and sincerely contributes to the country, he’ll accept it.

The only thing he cannot accept is a businessperson!

Fang Zhixue understands too, so when chatting with Gu Xiaoqing, she felt regret. She investigated Gu Xiaoqing, finding that Gu Xiaoqing excelled in studies, capable of scoring well beyond the academic threshold for major universities; attending Tsinghua University or Peking University wouldn’t have been difficult.
