Although Zhao Yu usually looked unreliable, he still hoped that he could get into a good university.
Sun Ting played the violin well and with his talent, he could attend a very good university. Fang Yao’s family background was not ordinary, so he had many choices. But he was not so lucky. Therefore, when he heard that Li Chang had a tuition opportunity, he followed her without hesitation.
“Alright, then study hard. Don’t let Yuan Xiao waste her energy!” Fang Yao looked at the sincere Zhao Yu and could not flare up at him.
In the kitchen, Yuan Xiao heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that Fang Yao was not angry.
“Your friend is a good person. Although he doesn’t look like a good child, he’s quite sensible,” Feng Mei whispered to Yuan Xiao.
When Feng Mei saw Zhao Yu’s yellow hair, she originally thought that he was not a good chap. However, this child was enthusiastic and sensible, and Feng Mei quickly let down her guard.
“Are you talking about Zhao Yu?” Yuan Xiao asked Feng Mei.
“Yes, this child is quite a good person. Mom shouldn’t have judged a book by its cover.” Feng Mei thought for a moment and whispered to Yuan Xiao, “But you have to be careful of that Fang Yao. That child’s expression looks scary. Although he’s good-looking, he doesn’t look friendly. His temper shouldn’t be good.”
Yuan Xiao did not know what Fang Yao would think if he heard her mother’s evaluation of him. He bought a bunch of gifts, but they were not as good as Zhao Yu’s words.
Yuan Xiao smiled. “Mom, didn’t you just say that you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover?”
“Yes, quickly bring the dishes out. Your father went downstairs to buy wine. He’ll be back in a while.”
Feng Mei realized that her daughter was biased towards Fang Yao and did not say anything. She only decided to observe Fang Yao later.
Feng Mei’s cooking was very good. Everyone sat together. Shen Hai was also very happy. This was the first time his daughter had brought friends home. “Come, children, eat more. Your auntie’s culinary skills are especially good!”
“Thank you, Uncle! Auntie’s dishes are too good. They look, smell, and taste good. This is the first time I’ve eaten such delicious home-cooked food in my life!” Zhao Yu praised Feng Mei’s culinary skills generously and ate the food in big mouthfuls without treating her as an outsider.
Shen Hai and Feng Mei looked at Zhao Yu lovingly. They felt that this child was very simple and easy to get close to.
Li Chang noticed Fang Yao’s awkward expression and gently kicked Zhao Yu, hoping that he would restrain himself. He was the most active person at the table.
“What’s wrong? Do you want me to pick up some food for you?” Zhao Yu did not understand what Li Chang meant and passed her some food that was a little further away. “Auntie’s food is better than the Michelin chef’s. Try it!”
Shen Hai smiled and said to Zhao Yu, “If you like it, eat more. If you want to eat your auntie’s dishes, come to the restaurant anytime. Uncle will treat you. It’s free!”
“Thank you, Uncle!”
With Zhao Yu’s presence at the dining table, everyone was in a good mood, but Fang Yao was getting more and more uncomfortable.
He clearly wanted to take this opportunity to show off in front of Yuan Xiao’s parents, but all the limelight was snatched away by Zhao Yu. Yuan Xiao’s parents barely looked at him, let alone change their impression of him.
“You should eat more too.” Yuan Xiao noticed Fang Yao’s desolate look and picked up a piece of stir-fried vegetables for him. She whispered to him, “I made this. It’s much more complicated than fried rice.”
Upon hearing Yuan Xiao’s words, Fang Yao’s eyes lit up like a puppy that had finally gotten a bone.
Feng Mei also noticed Fang Yao’s change and smiled as she refilled his glass.
“Auntie wanted to thank you for what happened at the restaurant last time. If it weren’t for your help, we wouldn’t know what to do.”
“Auntie, you’re too polite. It’s my duty. You don’t have to take it to heart.” Fang Yao was flattered and held the cup. He looked at Feng Mei with an exceptionally obedient gaze.
Feng Mei also noticed Fang Yao’s nervous expression and felt that this child was quite cute. It seemed that she should not judge a book by its cover.
“Come, eat more. Come and play often in the future. Treat this as your home. There’s no need to be restrained.” Feng Mei also picked up some food for Fang Yao. Seeing that he finally smiled, she was also happy.
The meal was exceptionally harmonious. Because it was getting late, the tuition today was not carried out. However, the study group was officially established. The few of them agreed that they would go straight to Yuan Xiao’s house for tuition after school.
