Chapter 1306 Who Does San Bao Resemble?Before this conflict, their relationship was completely developing according to her wish.
The more that was the case, the more she did not give face to Gao Yan in front of the two families’ parents. She rejected Gao Yan determinedly and even had a huge argument with her parents. She insisted to be with this boyfriend.
Otherwise, why would she be so angry at her parents because of such a man?
Since all the wonderful matters were just her imagination that did not exist in reality, her insistence had not only become ludicrous but also meaningless.
“I can’t tell that you’re such so idealistic.” Qiao Nan was greatly shocked. “After you break up with your boyfriend, do you intend to stop going against your parents’ wish and accept their well-meaning intention for you to be together to Gao Yan?” Qiao Nan was purely testing Fang Fang’s reaction with this question.
Fang Fang finished three cups of kuding tea. “What if I say that I wish to listen to your opinion?”
“Of course you can’t listen!” Qiao Nan said without any hesitation. “You must never rush in the matters of the heart. You can’t do that when you are breaking up, the more so when you are deciding to be with someone. Especially Gao Yan. Once you confirm your relationship with him, I’m afraid that both families’ parents will discuss marriage and having children soon. After ending one relationship, you can let yourself have a cooling-down period. Although you have broken up with your boyfriend, Gao Yan is not the only man left in this world.”
Qiao Nan did not feel the least burdened to say these words that would ‘drag down’ Gao Yan.
The one that she was biased toward had always been Fang Fang and not Gao Yan.
If Gao Yan was better than that man, she did not mind helping Fang Fang find that man’s shortcomings. If the two of them had a stable, strong, and infallible relationship in the future, she would not be a villain.
Fortunately, before Qiao Nan could do much, this relationship was going to end without any known cause after Fang Fang discovered her boyfriend’s past.
When a woman replied so decisively on such a matter, it just meant that the couple’s relationship was not stable enough. Their feelings for each other were not so deep. Otherwise, although there was a knot in Fang Fang’s heart, she would not decide to break up so swiftly without much hesitation.
On one hand, Fang Fang had broken up. On the other hand, Qiao Nan was holding on to Fang Fang with all her might. She was deeply fearful that Fang Fang would again drop into a deep pit such as Gao Yan and could not climb out of it.
Once these two people were together, there would be great implications. After all, both of their families had long harbored this idea.
“Fang Fang, both your relationship and life belongs to you. It’s not that you must find one that you like. But it has to be someone that you feel that you feel comfortable spending your life with, and one that will make you smile most of the time. If none of these two points can be fulfilled, life will be meaningless. From what you have said previously, I think you have a place in Gao Yan’s heart. He was foolish to have used the wrong ways to attract your attention in the second year of junior high school studies. No one can be certain that he will definitely know how to take care of you now. What if he only loves you but cannot take care of you in the specific matters of your life? It will be useless then no matter how deeply he loves you. Unless both of you always stay in a platonic relationship, I don’t recommend that you accept Gao Yan’s love.”
To Qiao Nan, no amount of feelings could complete with ‘carrying on with life’.
Qiao Nan sat beside Fang Fang and gave her a warm hug. “Fang Fang, perhaps my mindset is a little more mature and different from that of the typical youngsters. I need a more practical life and a lover who can hold up the sky for me, whom I can work together with and be understanding and forgiving to each other. Love is too illusionary. It is not wrong for us to be more realistic in life.”
Fang Fang leaned on Qiao Nan’s shoulders and cried again until she lost her voice. “Nan Nan, I have let you down. I deliberately asked you that question just now. Actually, I was suspicious of you. I thought that you… you are helping Gao Yan. Sorry. Sorry… H-how could I misunderstand and doubt you? You’re so good to me.”
This was Fang Fang’s true thoughts. She could totally feel Qiao Nan’s sincere care and concern for her from the latter’s simple and unadorned words.
Qiao Nan did not agree for her to be together with Gao Yan after she broke up. In addition, she reminded her a few times to take her own feelings seriously and maintain a distance with Gao Yan so that she would not sell herself in the fit of anger.
She could tell from Qiao Nan’s every word that the latter placed her happiness as the priority. Certainly, this could not be a pretense.
Fang Fang even felt that in terms of choosing a future partner, Qiao Nan cared more about her feelings than her parents. It was truly for her own good.
She did not need many of such good friends. Having one was already the most fortunate happening in her life.
Fang Fang, who was full of self-blame, completely did not discover that the person hugging her had a moment of guilt after hearing her words.
Indeed, Fang Fang’s happiness was Qiao Nan’s main concern. However, Qiao Nan did not have the confidence to say that she was not biased toward Gao Yan at all.
Without Gao Yan, she would not talk ‘nonsense’. Without her participation, the ‘shortcoming’ that could not be tolerated in Fang Fang’s first love would become harder for Fang Fang to accept in the future.
Qiao Nan’s eyes swirled. She said embarrassedly, “Don’t cry. You will become dehydrated after crying for so long. Drink tea. You should drink more tea. Kuding tea is cooling and especially good for you.” After finishing her words, at the sight that there was not much kuding tea left, Qiao Nan took the teapot, ran to the kitchen, and snatched the auntie’s job of preparing a new pot of tea.
When she came out of the kitchen, San Bao dumped her toy and ran toward her. She held onto Qiao Nan’s calves and refused to let go. “Mom, hug.”
Qiao Nan, who could not move her legs, could only pass the tea to the auntie. She carried her precious daughter and sat beside Fang Fang again.
Once Qiao Nan’s buttock hit the sofa, odd enough, San Bao’s chubby body flipped in an agile manner and landed itself by her side. She even deliberately sat in the middle of Qiao Nan and Fang Fang. She then turned her body and tried to hug her mother’s waist with her arms. She was full of jealousy!
Earlier, she had seen this strange auntie hugging her mother constantly.
Her mother belonged to her and her two brothers. She could not let anyone snatch her away!
As she thought about it, San Bao felt especially unjustified. She was glaring at Fang Fang. “Cry, shame, shame. I… I didn’t cry!” Having said that, San Bao lifted her chest and expressed that she was much more obedient than this strange auntie. She did not even cry but the strange auntie was not embarrassed to cry for so long. She was such a shame.
Qiao Nan did not know whether to laugh or cry at her daughter’s domineering ways. She carried her and gave her a kiss. “Auntie cried because she is feeling upset. Won’t San Bao console auntie? Auntie is Mom’s good friend.”
Everyone said that San Bao looked exactly like her and did not resemble Brother Zhai at all.
Today, she had finally discovered something that resembled Brother Zhai: San Bao’s jealousy. She had truly inherited this from Brother Zhai.
