Chapter 38: Clown
Fang Jintang could see that although Fang Mengyao said she knew she was wrong, she didn't really think so. Considering Qiu Yiming was present, he didn't want to make a scene and make him laugh, so he said calmly, "Everyone, please sit down first. And Yiming, tell me what you want to say."
Fang Mengyao breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the matter was over, so she stopped talking and sat on the sofa. Qiu Yiming looked around and saw that there was no other seat beside Fang Mengyao, so he had to sit down.
He deliberately didn't look at Bai Qianqian, ignored his existence, and then said: "Uncle and aunt, as well as Yuyang and Xinxin, you should have known the situation outside, right? I won't say much about the rest. After the meteorite fell from the sky in the middle of the night yesterday, many people's bodies mutated. Most people turned into zombies, and some people awakened superpowers. I came here today to ask, have you felt any changes in your body?"
The Fang family had been prepared. When Qiu Yiming first appeared, they guessed that he would ask this question, so they were not surprised, but very calm. Fang Yuyang smiled slightly, stretched out his right hand, and a miniature tornado gathered in his palm. He asked, "Is this the supernatural power you are talking about? I did find something wrong with my body after I woke up today. After trying a few times, I found this."
Seeing this, Qiu Yiming's eyes lit up. He didn't expect Fang Yuyang to have awakened the wind ability. This was a pleasant surprise. Then, he couldn't help but look at Fang Yuxin and asked her expectantly, "Xinxin, have you awakened your ability?"
Fang Yuxin was well prepared. After Qiu Yiming asked, she took the small potted plant beside her and put her hand on the cute ceramic flowerpot. It was a pot of mimosa. As soon as she put her hand on it, the mimosa sprouted at a speed visible to the naked eye, grew new leaves, and even bloomed pink flowers.
Qiu Yiming became happy when he saw this: "Great! Xinxin, you actually awakened a rare wood-type ability!" Although it was only the first day of the apocalypse, he had already seen all kinds of people with special abilities. As far as he knew, among the awakened people with special abilities, those with strengthening abilities were the most numerous, while those with natural abilities were relatively few, and those with wood abilities were even fewer.
Fang Yuxin smiled and said nothing. Wood-type abilities are indeed rare, but in fact, there are even rarer special-type abilities, such as spiritual, spatial, and temporal abilities. Among them, spatial and temporal abilities are the most extraordinary, and for this reason, their numbers are quite small, almost to the point of being extremely rare.
Fang Mengyao didn't expect Fang Yuxin and Fang Yuyang to be so lucky. They both awakened their powers, and they were wood and wind powers! Although the attack power of the wood power was average, it had healing ability, and Fang Yuyang's wind power was obviously powerful!
She couldn't help but secretly feel that it was a pity that she hadn't been able to get the Fang family to take the inhibitors. Otherwise, how could Fang Yuxin have awakened the rare wood-related ability and made Qiu Yiming look at him differently?
Seeing Qiu Yiming gazing at Fang Yuxin affectionately, she became a little anxious. She originally thought that Fang Yuxin would give up after having a son, but she didn't expect that he was still thinking about Fang Yuxin. Isn't it just a wood-type ability? What's there to be proud of? Her game upgrade system is much more powerful than all the abilities!
But Fang Mengyao was not stupid after all. She knew that the game system must not be exposed, at least not for now, so she thought about it and said, "Actually, I have also awakened my superpowers."
This finally attracted Qiu Yiming's attention. Noticing Qiu Yiming's curious gaze, she put the mimosa into the game package in front of everyone, then took it out again and said, "After I woke up, I found a 100 cubic meter portable space. I can put things in it. I think this should be a space ability."
Originally, she didn't intend to tell him that she had a portable space, but in order to win over Qiu Yiming, she had no choice but to do so. She wanted to let Qiu Yiming know that although Fang Yuxin's wood ability was rare, she had an even rarer and more powerful space ability! She didn't believe that Qiu Yiming would not be tempted!
As expected, as soon as she said this, Qiu Yiming's face changed, and his gaze towards her became fiery. Fang Mengyao was secretly proud of herself, and then she found that not only Qiu Yiming, but also the Fang family's gaze towards her had changed.
Fang Jintang looked at Fang Mengyao with disappointment, and he almost wanted to call her "stupid"! Spatial ability, is that something that can be casually said in front of outsiders? Does she have a heart? Has she ever thought about the consequences of saying this?
Seeing his ugly face, Fang Mengyao couldn't help but said, "Dad, why are you looking at me like that? Are you unhappy that I have awakened my superpowers?"
Seeing her repeatedly provoking Fang Jintang, Qu Qianhe could no longer bear it and said unhappily, "Xiaoyao, is this how you talk to your father?"
Fang Mengyao was even more dissatisfied: "It's obviously Dad who is partial to me, how come it's my fault in the end? Because I'm an illegitimate daughter, you all don't like me, right? It's not that I want to be an illegitimate daughter, but I was born like this, can you blame me? I was born to be looked down upon, and you never look at me well. No matter what I do, it's wrong. Why?"
The more she spoke, the sadder she became. She took this opportunity to vent all her dissatisfaction. She looked at the ugly faces of Fang Jintang and Qu Qianhe, but she didn't feel scared. Instead, she felt proud and happy, as if she had succeeded in revenge.
Fang Yuyang and Fang Yuxin watched this scene, and they couldn't help but feel even more disgusted with Fang Mengyao. They were about to speak, but Qu Qianhe got there first and said, "So that's what you think."
Her gaze made Fang Mengyao feel a little uneasy. After hesitating for a moment, she sneered and said, "Did I say something wrong? Or do you simply not dare to admit it?"
Qu Qianhe suddenly laughed and looked at Fang Mengyao sarcastically, as if she was looking at a clown. She said, "There is something your mother may not have told you. Originally, I didn't intend to let you know, but since you think so, why should I hide it?" She paused here and said to Fang Yuxin, "Xinxin, take Qianqian back to his room first. It's getting late and he should rest."
Fang Yuxin knew that she didn't want Bai Qianqian to hear what she was going to say next, so she nodded and took Bai Qianqian upstairs. Qiu Yiming looked at the backs of the two people leaving, his brows furrowed tighter and tighter. He guessed that Qu Qianhe's next words might be about Fang Mengyao's life experience. It was really embarrassing for him, an outsider, to stay, so he simply said, "Uncle and aunt, I have something to say to Xinxin, I'll go upstairs first."

PS: When I was watching certain TV dramas, there would always be the protagonist or the villain who, when being questioned and unable to answer, would start to make unreasonable demands and accuse the other party, and the person asking the question would always be helpless, which was very frustrating to watch, and thus, the above meme came about.
