He couldn't let Yuanyuan expose the space, so he couldn't say anything.
He can't take that risk.
“Okay, I believe you’re not an impulsive person, but the second son will probably be in pain for a while.” Fang Shengping nodded.
The three brothers had always had a good relationship, but unexpectedly, it turned into this mess because of a jealous woman.
This Li Xueqin is truly worthy of being Old Master Li's child. She has managed to act so perfectly for so many years, and she even shows concern for the third son's family. It has really opened his eyes.
After seeing the people off, Fang Chengyuan returned and, seeing the slightly awkward atmosphere in the room, smiled and asked Fang Yuan:
"Is this my dear little sister? Yuanyuan, it's a very nice and easy-to-remember name."
"Hello, big cousin, thank you for the compliment. I also like this name, mainly because it's interesting and easy to remember!" Fang Yuan looked at him and replied with a smile.
This cousin's personality was completely different from the cold and aloof person Cao Can remembered.
Seeing how cooperative Fang Yuan was, Fang Chengyuan's fondness for his new cousin grew even stronger.
"Don't call me cousin, just call me big brother. We're family, not like other people!"
His third uncle had always treated him well, and he also had a good relationship with Fang Chengjun, except for Cao Can.
He immediately sensed that she was a scheming person when he first saw her, so he almost ignored her.
As for his second uncle's sons, Fang Qing and Fang Chenghao, one was a selfish bastard and the other was like a piece of trash all day long; he really looked down on them.
“Big brother is right, we’re family, the kind of blood that’s still connected even if the bones are broken,” Fang Yuan said, going along with his words.
As the saying goes, "a hero needs three helpers," and since her older cousin was willing to be close to her, she wouldn't refuse.
In Cao Can's memory, although he was difficult to get along with, he was generally quite principled.
"It's just different among relatives. Don't be fooled by your older brother's joking around with you now; he doesn't really like that Cao Can," Grandma Fang explained to Fang Yuan.
“Really? Then he really is my brother. He saw right away that Cao Can had usurped the position.” Fang Yuan added.
"Haha, that's right, my sixth sense is really strong. Don't worry, Yuanyuan, I'll protect you from now on," Fang Chengyuan said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Fang Shengping looked at Fang Chengyuan and reprimanded him:
"Don't talk nonsense while wearing that outfit. What's with all this talk about a 'cover'? Anyone who didn't know better would think you're some kind of gangster's protector."
As the second-in-command of Yuncheng, he never forgot to remind his son not to make mistakes, lest he tarnish his father's reputation.
"Dad, you overestimate me. I'm just a newly promoted deputy director with only two or three underlings. What kind of protective umbrella can I be?"
Besides, isn't this at home? I'm just spending time with my sister, strengthening our sibling bond!
Without outsiders around, Fang Chengyuan wouldn't keep up his serious act. Why would he care about such things at home?
Auntie also directly confronted Uncle Fang:
"Are you bringing your bureaucratic ways home? Are you afraid your son will get better? The children haven't seen each other for so many years, and you make a big deal out of nothing when they say something at home? You've really been a leader all this time, trying to control everything!"
That old woman loves to lecture her son, spouting the same nonsense all day long; she's tired of it.
“My mom is right. My dad is acting like an official now. He wants to lecture everyone he meets, and he’s impossible to get rid of,” Fang Chengyuan echoed without any politeness.
"Eldest son, stop lecturing my grandson all the time. He's more well-behaved than you were back then. They have a good sibling relationship, and it makes this old woman happy," Grandma Fang added.
"Mom, I just reminded him once, I didn't say anything!" Uncle Fang replied helplessly.
It was just a casual remark, but now everyone is attacking him.
Seeing his father's arrogance subsided, Fang Chengyuan, in a good mood, sat down next to his grandmother. After scrutinizing Fang Yuan's face for a while, he said in a serious tone:
"I must say, your round face really does look like Grandma's when she was young. I think I can already foresee what you will look like in the future."
After saying that, he glanced at Grandma Fang's face, looking as if he understood.
Upon hearing this, Fang Yuan was taken aback for a moment, then burst out laughing.
"You brat, I just told you you're sensible and you're already causing trouble. I'll teach you a lesson."
Grandma Fang laughed and scolded, slapping Fang Chengyuan a few times in an annoyed manner.
The others also smiled, and the atmosphere finally eased a bit.
"Alright, now that things are resolved, we should head back. Mom and Dad, why don't you come stay at my place?"
Fang Shengping glanced around and saw that the atmosphere in the room was quite pleasant before asking a question.
“You yourselves rarely live here, so what would we do there? I’m not going. I’ll stay here with my Yuanyuan.” Grandma Fang shook her head without any politeness.
Right now, Fangyuan is the most important thing to her, and she's comfortable living here, so there's no need to keep moving around.
"Alright then, we'll head back now."
Fang Shengping then took Fang Qinghe aside, said a few words, and left.
After Uncle Fang and his family left, Grandpa Fang and Grandma Fang also went back to their room to rest.
Fang Yuan then went upstairs, ready to continue her extra meal project.
Whoosh~
My phone beeped.
Fang Yuan opened the message and saw that it was from her father.
Come to the garage right now!
It seems we won't be able to have this meal today.
She had no choice but to go out again and go to the garage.
"Dad, we've been collecting things for two nights already, and we already have quite a lot of stuff. Is there anything else?" Fang Yuan complained as he got into the car.
She was filled with resentment because she didn't get to eat the food she had been longing for.
During her two nights at the Nanshan villa, her father called her out to the suburban warehouse to collect things.
“My dear daughter, I didn’t want to trouble you any more today, but the people down here are so capable. They brought in a large batch of freshly slaughtered beef and mutton. It would be a waste not to accept it.”
Fang's father comforted Fang Yuan while driving.
He also felt quite sorry for his daughter, who hadn't eaten much these past two days and still had to go out with him to collect things every night.
But now that the items have arrived, we can't let them spoil, can we?
In his past life, when he didn't know Cao Can had a spatial ability, he had experienced hunger and cold, and he truly couldn't bear to waste food.
"Actually, there are only so many people in our family, we can't possibly eat it all. Since we'll be resuming operations in the future, why not collect some valuable items?" Fang Yuan asked.
“Valuable? We can’t just buy gold, can we? The price is too high now, it’s not worth it. We can trade with others later.”
Fang Qinghe thought that during the apocalypse, many people couldn't even exchange gold for anything, so wouldn't it be more appropriate to collect at that time?
"Alright, Dad, your dreams are more comprehensive than mine. I'll listen to you."
Fang Yuan nodded; after all, she wasn't here to rule or dominate.
She just needs to live her own life; let Mr. Fang handle these things that require his attention!
"By the way, the meteor shower tonight is beautiful. It's the last time we'll be able to see the starry sky clearly in a few years. Don't you really want to take a look?" Fang Qinghe asked.
In his past life, on his way home from working overtime, he saw that unprecedented meteor shower from his car.
It's so huge, it's like a rainstorm, it's truly breathtaking.
