Chapter 116 - 116 Ideal Type
116 Ideal Type
Seeing Yuan Xiao shake her head lightly, Meng Zhu’s heart finally calmed down a little.
“You’ve been with Brother Fang Ming all day. You look like you have a lot on your mind. Did he say something unintentionally that made you feel bad?” Yuan Xiao knew that Fang Ming treated Meng Zhu as his younger sister, so his words might hurt Meng Zhu.
“It’s not that I feel bad. Actually, I know that Brother Fang Ming won’t like a girl like me.” Meng Zhu’s voice was very soft, and her tone was a little aggrieved. She was completely different from her usual cheerful self.
“Why would you think that?” Yuan Xiao looked at the dejected Meng Zhu in confusion.
“Brother Fang Ming said that the girl he likes would be the mature and steady type.” Meng Zhu pouted. She felt that she was too far away from these two words.
“Did he tell you himself?” Yuan Xiao did not think that Fang Ming had a girl he liked now, so the type Fang Ming suggested was probably just a casual remark.
“I guess so. I asked him what type of girl he liked. He said so himself.” Meng Zhu’s eyes were a little innocent.
Yuan Xiao looked at her pitiful appearance and felt that she looked like a puppy that had been thrown into a cardboard box.
“Zhu Zhu, guess what type of boy I like?” Yuan Xiao looked at Meng Zhu with a smile on her face.
Hearing Yuan Xiao’s question, Fang Yao’s face appeared in Meng Zhu’s mind. “Your ideal type should be a good-looking face, a straightforward personality, childish and not very bright?”
The more Meng Zhu spoke, the more she felt that there was something wrong with her words. She thought about it and could not help but ask, “What exactly do you like about Fang Yao? Other than his good looks, does this kid have any other hidden merits?”
Yuan Xiao was not surprised by Meng Zhu’s answer. Based on their usual relationship, she originally thought that Meng Zhu would not even think that Fang Yao was good-looking, but now it seemed that Fang Yao’s looks were still publicly acknowledged.
“The type of boy I like should be gentle, considerate, and steady.” After Yuan Xiao finished speaking, she saw Meng Zhu frown in confusion.
“Is the Fang Yao we know the same person? The gentle and considerate one is more like Brother Fang Ming!” Meng Zhu felt that Fang Yao was a little further away from these adjectives.
“I didn’t say Fang Yao was my ideal type,”
Before Yuan Xiao could finish, Meng Zhu interrupted her. “Don’t you like Fang Yao?”
Although Meng Zhu and Fang Yao were not on good terms, she still hoped that Fang Yao and Yuan Xiao could be together.
“I do, and I like him very much.” Yuan Xiao smiled and explained to Meng Zhu, “What I mean is that an ideal type might not necessarily be the person that you really like eventually. Even if you have a lot of thoughts before you fall in love and have a lot of longing for your other half, when you really meet the right person, you will abandon everything and accept him.”
Meng Zhu tried her best to understand Yuan Xiao’s words. “Do you mean that I still have a chance to be with Brother Fang Ming?”
“Of course there’s a chance. You’re both single, so why can’t you be together?” Yuan Xiao felt that although the age difference between Fang Ming and Meng Zhu was a little big, it did not mean that they were really not compatible.
“I don’t dare to confess. If Brother Fang Ming rejects me, how can I meet him in the future?” Meng Zhu felt that she would rather stay by Fang Ming’s side silently than not see him again after he rejected her. Meng Zhu liked Fang Ming and even treated him as the most important person in her heart.
“Confession also requires good timing. Create more opportunities to interact with each other. Take it slow. I believe that you will get what you want.” Yuan Xiao liked Meng Zhu’s personality very much and hoped that she could obtain happiness.
“Thank you, Xiao Xiao.” It was Meng Zhu’s first time discussing her worries with a peer. Yuan Xiao’s words made Meng Zhu feel much better. “From now on, your business is my business. Xiao Xiao, we’ll be biological sisters. Don’t stand on ceremony with me!”
Meng Zhu’s personality was very direct, and she genuinely liked Yuan Xiao.
“I really do have something to ask you, actually.” Yuan Xiao’s mind was filled with the system’s missions. Meng Zhu was close to the Fang family, so she should know more about the Fang family’s situation.
“Tell me. If I know, I’ll tell you everything.”
Yuan Xiao paused for a moment and asked Meng Zhu, “Do you know how close Fang Yao is to his grandfather?”
“Grandpa Fang?” Meng Zhu scratched her head and explained to Yuan Xiao, “Both of them have short tempers. Fang Yao is not as sensible as Brother Fang Ming. Grandpa Fang is just worried about him.”
Seeing that Yuan Xiao’s expression was a little serious, Meng Zhu explained, “But you don’t have to worry. After all, they’re biological grandfather and grandson. They won’t be too distant.”
