"I'm going home for dinner this weekend."
"Oh, is there anything else, Dad?"
"Where are you? Alone or with friends?" Fang Yanming heard the noise and immediately thought of the mysterious person.
"Eating out with a friend..."
Fang Tongtong tried to brush it off, but she was still embarrassed. She felt fine with Shi Xiaobao in private, just like before, but she felt awkward in front of her elders.
"It's me, Xiaobao, Uncle Fang." Shi Xiaobao suddenly spoke up, startling Fang Tongtong, who quickly covered her phone. But Fang Yanming had already heard her. "If you're with Xiaobao, just say so. Why say you're friends? Alright, finish your food and go home early. Girls shouldn't stay out too late."
"I'll take Tongtong back," Shi Xiaobao added, his eyes gleaming mischievously.
Fang Yanming trusted Shi Xiaobao, gave him a few more instructions, and then hung up. Fang Tongtong glared at him fiercely, "I told you not to say it, but you still did! You even called my dad 'uncle,' you...you just want to stir up trouble!"
"You've already promised to save me, so I can't keep calling you Dad or Uncle, can I? That would really create chaos!" Shi Xiaobao said deliberately.
Fang Tongtong frowned. That was true, but—
"You could have kept quiet just now, why did you make a sound? Now my parents will definitely be suspicious." Fang Tongtong rolled her eyes in annoyance; she wasn't so easily fooled.
That day, Shi Xiaobao reasoned with her and appealed to her emotions, and she reluctantly agreed to help in the emergency. But it was only an emergency measure; they would part ways once things calmed down.
Anyway, she and Shi Xiaobao are not related by blood, so it doesn't matter.
However, what truly moved Fang Tongtong was Shi Xiaobao's "sugar baby" offer, which included food and drink, guaranteed lavish meals, and the option to order other dishes. Fang Tongtong, who was desperately poor, agreed without much hesitation.
"You have to meet my parents eventually. If my parents find out, how could your parents not know? Tongtong, this can't be kept secret for long." Shi Xiaobao suppressed a laugh and coaxed her gently.
Fang Tongtong immediately regretted it. Her parents were not as easy to fool as Shi Xiaobao's parents. Thinking about the bombardment of interrogation that was about to begin, she felt overwhelmed and really wanted to break the contract.
But she had already eaten so much delicious food, she couldn't just throw it all up and give it back to the person, and besides... she couldn't bear to part with all that delicious food!
"Sigh... How come you're so useless? You can't even find a wife. What a waste of such a pretty face." Fang Tongtong glared at him with exasperation.
He's not ugly, he looks presentable, and he's the CEO of a company. He's rich and good-looking, so why can't he find a girlfriend?
"Girls these days have high standards, and I'm not good enough." Shi Xiaobao lied through his teeth, going against his conscience.
Fang Tongtong only worried for a minute before landing and eating grilled fish again. Food is the one thing in the world that should never be missed; bigger problems can wait. The food in front of her was the most important thing.
After hanging up the phone, Fang Yanming said to Mao Fangfei, "Tongtong and Xiaobao are eating out. Xiaobao is really becoming more and more promising, much better than his old man...wait...something's not right..."
Finally realizing what was happening, Fang Yanming scratched his head, the more he thought about it, the more something seemed off.
"What's wrong?"
"Xiao Bao just called me Uncle Fang. Doesn't this child always call me Grand Uncle? Why did he change his address?"
"You heard me right?"
"How could that be? I'm not deaf." Fang Yanming glared at him, annoyed. He was still young.
Mao Fangfei didn't take it to heart. "Maybe he's been drinking. Why think so much? All I want to know right now is who Tongtong's boyfriend is. Everything else is irrelevant!"
