Chapter 1293 - There Is a Need to Cool Down

1293 There Is a Need to Cool Down

“Their father doesn’t have any problem carrying them on one hand each. Now, the three of them are older. If my husband is around, he will carry one with his left hand, one with his right hand, and one on his back. San Bao didn’t join her brothers and insisted that you carry all three of them altogether. They are already very sensible.”

After talking about the children, Qiao Nan expressed concern about Fang Fang’s situation. “How is it?”

“What do you mean?” There were two little ones in her arms but she could not carry them as they were too heavy. Fang Fang was full of regrets. At that moment, she did not get what Qiao Nan was driving at.

“What can it be? Gao Yan and you.” After carrying San Bao for a while, Qiao Nan’s arms were aching badly. She could only move San Bao to her side. San Bao knitted her brows, held on to Qiao Nan, and sat down. Next, like a little monkey, she climbed up Qiao Nan’s knees and sat obediently on her mother’s lap.

Qiao Nan breathed a sigh of relief. It was better for the legs to ache than the arms. “Okay, sit down too.”

After Fang Fang sat down, she was hoping that Da Bao and Er Bao would sit beside her. Who would have known that the two chubby boys were so physically agile? As soon as Fang Fang stood up, Da Bao and Er Bao turned and ran toward their mother. They respectively stood by the left and right side of their mother, as if they were guardian angels protecting their mother and sister. Their little bodies leaned on their mother’s side longingly.

At the sight of this, Fang Fang felt so envious. “They are so clingy to you.”

“Besides the mother, who else will a child cling to?” Qiao Nan smiled, feeling amused. “Also, don’t avoid the topic. You should be graduating soon in a year’s time. It’s not considered too early to find a boyfriend now. What do you think of Gao Yan?”

Fang Fang blushed. She held and slurped the cup of water that the auntie had given her. “What about him? It’s like that. Since a young age, he annoys me very much. Actually, I don’t really like him. Besides, I already have a boyfriend.” It was just that he was not Gao Yan.

Qiao Nan had a great shock. “You already have a boyfriend. So, you became more cheerful under your boyfriend’s influence?” This news had stunned her badly that she nearly pooped n her pants. “Is Gao Yan aware?”

Fang Fang shook her head honestly. “I don’t know. My parents are not even aware of it. I... I didn’t announce our relationship. Even my classmates don’t know. I am thinking... When our relationship is more stable, I will bring him to my parents after graduation.”

When the blushing Fang Fang mentioned this boyfriend, her tone was seemingly less cold. On the contrary, there was a feeling of flowing streams in spring.

Obviously, Fang Fang liked this boyfriend very much.

Qiao Nan was having a headache. “I heard that Gao Yan visited your house for a meal. Was it just purely a meal?” She did not believe it. Otherwise, why must Gao Yan bring along the dress that she had made that day?

Most importantly, Qiao Nan heard from Tian Dong that Gao Yan seemed to be quite moody these few days.

After thinking it over, Qiao Nan felt that Gao Yan was unlikely to be facing problems in his business since he had already confirmed Tian Dong as his working partner. Gao Yan had the technology and Tian Dong the capital and interpersonal network. They would have access to distribution channels for the products overseas. In addition, there was another advantage in working with Tian Dong. With the collaboration, Gao Yan did not need to feel worried that his small company would be merged or acquired by a bigger company.

Since Gao Yan’s career was flourishing, the only matter that could trouble a winner in life like him was Fang Fang, this childhood sweetheart. Otherwise, Qiao Nan would not need to ask Fang Fang about this today.

“He brought uncle and auntie to my house for a meal. After the meal, he proposed to me. I rejected him.” In front of Qiao Nan, Fang Fang dared to spill the beans. “You don’t know. I was so embarrassed that day. I don’t have those feelings toward him. In the past, I attended Ping Cheng High School instead of The High School Affiliated to Renmin University of China because I wanted to avoid him, although my grades could easily admit me into The High School Affiliated to Renmin University of China. Would I agree to his proposal and marry him? I am someone who has a boyfriend!”

If Gao Yan had preempted her, she would definitely persuade him to give up.

No matter how she thought about it, she felt that it was completely impossible between her and Gao Yan.

The moment Gao Yan proposed to her, Fang Fang did not feel touched. She only felt shocked and lost. A word continuously appeared in her mind: ridiculous!

“Although uncle and auntie liked to joke about making me part of their family when I was a child, and my parents did not decline either, jokes are jokes. How can they take it for real? What era is it now? It’s all about the freedom of love. Gao Yan is still doing his business, and I heard that he has clinched a big deal recently. Otherwise, I almost suspected that he had suffered a huge blow recently to play such a meaningless prank on me. Since high school days, he never lacked girlfriends. He was surrounded by school belle, class belle, seniors, and juniors. He is so popular with ladies. Will he fancy me, a bespectacled girl? He shuns me badly and often chides me for being ugly.”

At the beginning, there was still confusion in Fang Fang’s eyes when she said this.

However, at the end of her berating, there was anger in Fang Fang’s eyes. Her tone was more hurried. Besides placing her clenched fists on the knees, she was also gritting her teeth. It was as if she was not talking about her childhood sweetheart but her greatest enemy of a few lifetimes.

“I admit that I am not very pretty and my spectacles are a little black and ugly. However, everyone has pride. I am a lady. I also want to be better. I really don’t understand why those ladies like Gao Yan, who has such a malicious tongue. Are they all blind? When we were young, he often berated me. After we grew up, he even played such an overboard prank on me. What if I foolishly accept his proposal? At any point in time, he may tell me that he is just joking. He will never fancy me. Didn’t he think that I would take the proposal for real?”

Qiao Nan was stunned as she listened to Fang Fang. She quickly took another cup of water for Fang Fang.

However, after thinking, she changed her mind. Qiao Nan shouted for the auntie. “Auntie, it’s almost winter. It is quite hot recently. Can you prepare a pot of kuding tea[Kuding tea is a particularly bitter Chinese infusion tea.] and bring it over?” To cool one’s body down.

During high school, Qiao Nan had only met Gao Yan once. At that time, Gao Yan specially came to Ping Cheng High School to thank her for making Fang Fang change her mind and select the humanities instead of science course.

At that time, Qiao Nan could sense that Gao Yan had some feelings for Fang Fang. On the contrary, Fang Fang’s tone was not friendly when she spoke of Gao Yan. However, Qiao Nan did not think that much. She took it that they were a quarrelsome and loving couple.

However, Qiao Nan no longer had such thoughts when she saw the Fang Fang before her eyes. Fang Fang was fuming so badly with anger that smoke was almost rising from the top of her heard. A lady would definitely not speak of a man that she fancied in this manner.
