Chapter 47 Tang Xiaoyu
Chapter 48 Tang Xiaoyu
Although Fang Qing didn’t know Tang Xiaoyu, he had often heard this name in his previous life.
She was an outstanding youth and young dancer in the province. She had performed abroad on behalf of the country many times. Her photos were everywhere in newspapers and magazines. When Fang Qing was imprisoned in a mental hospital and was about to die, this girl had already begun a brilliant life.
I didn't expect that I would meet her here in this life.
Fang Qing smiled and politely extended her hand, "Hello, I'm Fang Qing, nice to meet you."
But Tang Xiaoyu just looked at her strangely for a while, and turned her head as if she didn't see her, "Brother Ning, please take me to your study. I haven't played military chess with you for a long time."
Wen Ning lowered his head to peel an apple and did not notice anything unusual between the two. Seeing that Tang Xiaoyu could no longer sit still, he stood up and took her to the study room, "You guys go play too. I'll stay with Xiaoyu for a while."
Watching the two of them leave together, Wen Ling pouted and muttered angrily, "What a jerk. Every time he comes, he pesters my brother like a dog-skin plaster. It's so annoying!"
Fang Qing, who was sitting next to them, looked at the two people leaving thoughtfully: Wen Ning seemed to be very indulgent towards Tang Xiaoyu. It was the first time she saw him being so gentle to a girl.
Wen Ling was still complaining, "Look at her attitude just now. She didn't even respond when you greeted her. She really thinks she's a dish. Humph, if it wasn't for Uncle Tang, I wouldn't bother to pay attention to her!"
At this time, Tang Xiaoyu in the study was also asking about Fang Qing in a roundabout way. Wen Ning smiled and talked about how they met.
Although Wen Ning skipped the incident of Fang Qing encountering hooligans and only said that he and Wen Ling had saved her, Tang Xiaoyu was sensitive enough to notice that Wen Ning seemed to laugh every time he talked about Fang Qing. This was not a good sign. How could her brother Ning pay so much attention to another girl? She made up her mind not to let these two get too close!
Mother Wen prepared a sumptuous meal and asked the children to eat at the table.
But just as Fang Qing took one step, another person sat on the chair in front of him. Tang Xiaoyu sat down, pulled Wen Ning to sit down, and looked at Wen Ling and Fang Qing next to him with surprise, "Why are you standing? Sit down, don't be restrained, just treat it as your own home."
Wen Ling looked at Tang Xiaoyu speechlessly. How could this person be like this? Did he really treat this place as his own home?
But just as she was about to get angry, Fang Qing held her hand back. Fang Qing smiled gently, "Aren't you hungry? Let's eat first."
Wen Ling suppressed her anger and sat down obediently. Everyone raised their glasses to celebrate Wen Ning's birthday, and the atmosphere gradually eased.
But Tang Xiaoyu next to him was really restless. She wanted to eat this and try that. Wen Ning was busy picking up food for her and didn't eat much himself.
Wen Ling couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so she stood up and scooped a large spoonful of vegetables into Tang Xiaoyu's bowl. "Is this enough? If you can't reach it, I can help you. Today is my brother's birthday, and he hasn't eaten a single bite yet!"
Seeing this, Tang Xiaoyu immediately frowned, "I'm sorry, I haven't seen Brother Ning for a long time. I was so happy that I didn't even consider Brother Ning's feelings. Brother Ning, please eat quickly. I can do it myself."
Turning around and seeing Fang Qing trying to pick up some spring rolls, she grabbed the few remaining ones on the plate first, blinking her eyes and asking, "Excuse me, I like this so much, do you want more?"
Fang Qing retracted his hand, shook his head politely, picked up the cup and drank water to hide his embarrassment.
Wen Ling wanted to say something, but her mother glared at her and signaled her to stop talking. Wen Ling felt aggrieved and could only take a bite of the chicken in the bowl with hatred.
Everyone had no taste for the meal, but Tang Xiaoyu was very happy. "Wow, Brother Ning is so skillful. He peeled the shrimps so cleanly."
Wen Ling looked at the pile of shrimp shells next to her brother and the pile of shrimp meat in Tang Xiaoyu's bowl, and couldn't help rolling her eyes, "Why do you always order my brother around? You have your own hands, but you can't peel them?"
Tang Xiaoyu smiled and said seriously, "I don't know how to peel them, and I never peel them myself. Shrimp taste better when someone else peels them for me."
Seeing that Wen Ling was about to get angry again, Fang Qing quickly held her down, "Lingzi, do you want to eat shrimp too? I'll peel it for you."
Wen Ling shook her head. "I can do it myself! Unlike some disabled people who rely on others for everything..."
Tang Xiaoyu heard Wen Ling's words clearly. She immediately looked over with grievance, "Lingling, are you talking about me? It's not that I don't want to peel it myself, it's just that I will take the art exam next month, and the injury on my hand will affect my performance..."
Fang Qing was peeling shrimps silently, and at this point she finally understood.
Tang Xiaoyu did not lie that she would take the art exam next month, but these were all excuses. Dancers are covered in injuries, so why would they be afraid of such a small injury on their fingers? It was just to get closer to Wen Ning, the evildoer, but there was no need to show off like this, right? Fang Qing shook his head. Dealing with girls was troublesome. Even having a meal was full of intrigue.
Then Fang Qing thought of the scene he saw during the night run, and couldn't help laughing. Girls all over the world will be disappointed, their brother Ning doesn't seem to like women...
Wen Ling and Tang Xiaoyu were still bickering, and Wen Ning finally couldn't stand it anymore and told them to shut up and eat. He looked up and saw Fang Qing peeling shrimps with her head tilted back. A faint smile passed across the corners of her mouth, making people unable to help but smile along with it.
Wen Ning took a quick look and saw that most of the shrimps on the table had gone into Tang Xiaoyu's bowl. Tang Xiaoyu was just bickering with Wen Ling at this moment, but she hadn't touched a single bite. Then he turned cold and said, "Xiaoyu, wasting food is not a good habit."
Tang Xiaoyu, who was happily competing with Wen Ling, was suddenly called out. She pouted and was about to act like a spoiled child as usual, but Wen Ning did not indulge her. "You said you wanted to eat shrimp, and I peeled them for you but you didn't eat them. Is that fun?"
Seeing Wen Ning's gloomy face, Tang Xiaoyu didn't dare to do anything else and quickly picked up the bowl, "I didn't say I don't want to eat, don't be angry."
Seeing Tang Xiaoyu being humiliated, Wen Ling finally felt better. "Xiaoyu, eat it all. After all, this is peeled for you by your brother Ning..."
Seeing his sister's smug look, Wen Ning sighed. These two girls have been at odds since they were young. They fight whenever they meet. It has been so many years and they are still like this. His eyes suddenly drifted to Fang Qing next to him. This girl is still worry-free.
After the meal, Wen Ling took out the ice cream from the refrigerator and distributed it to everyone. When Tang Xiaoyu saw their surprised looks, she immediately felt contempt in her heart: a bunch of country bumpkins, it's just a piece of broken ice cream, and they look so ignorant.
But when she turned around, she saw Wen Ning taking the ice cream from Fang Qing's hand. The familiar movements of the two made her feel uncomfortable, "Brother Ning, why are you eating these cheap things..."
Unexpectedly, Wen Ning took a big bite and nodded, "This is made by Qingqing. You can't eat it outside. Do you want to try it?"
Tang Xiaoyu pouted. She didn’t want to eat what that vixen cooked!
