Back to the 70s: My Childhood Sweetheart Spoils Me Rotten-Chapter 772 - 774 Feeling Unwell
"Isn’t that Guang Ran who likes Nana?" Wang Yufan walked over to Gong Ruini’s side, looking at the people walking ahead, and asked in a low voice.
Oh, this kid actually figured it out. Gong Ruini had a look of disbelief.
"I’m not dumb." Wang Yufan didn’t realize it at first, but seeing the interaction between Zhao Guangran and Cao Na, if he still couldn’t figure it out, then he really would be a fool.
"Not dumb." It’s just Zhao Guangran who’s dumb.
"But I don’t think Guang Ran will necessarily end up with Nana." Wang Yufan didn’t genuinely think that pair would work out.
What does that mean, could it be that Wang Yufan likes Cao Na?
But if he really liked Cao Na, shouldn’t he be pursuing her? Why would he see Zhao Guangran surrounding Cao Na without making a move?
Could he be planning to use her? To let her tell Zhao Guangran that he and Cao Na aren’t suitable?
"I don’t like Cao Na, no, I haven’t thought of being with Cao Na. I think being siblings is nice." Gong Ruini’s scrutinizing gaze made Wang Yufan jump.
Wang Yufan didn’t want his words to cause a lot of trouble; if these words reached his cousin’s ears, who knows how his cousin would deal with him.
Wang Yufan had experienced his cousin’s so-called loving education; once was enough for him to not want a second experience.
"Then what about you?" Since Wang Yufan doesn’t like Cao Na, why say such discouraging things. "I thought you and Guang Ran were friends."
Friends? They’re not there yet. Maybe they get along well, but to upgrade to becoming friends, that requires the test of time.
"I’m just being honest; my cousin’s family situation, you should know." Wang Yufan simply didn’t want Zhao Guangran, the silly kid, to be too naive.
If they didn’t know from the beginning, they definitely would after Cao Li’s wedding. Moreover, being in Beijing, they’re not completely clueless; they have their sources of information.
"If nothing unexpected happens, Nana will carry the great business of the Cao Family. If she really wants to find an ordinary person, maybe they’ll marry in, just like your uncle." Although what he said was harsh, if he really wanted to be with Cao Na, some things couldn’t be avoided.
Marry in? Ah, ah, ah, no way, Gong Ruini was stunned. When Cai Ming agreed to marry in, besides the Wan Family needing it, it was also because he didn’t want too many ties with the Cai Family.
But the Zhao Family’s situation is different, Zhao Gang and his wife had four children; two are carrying on the Zhan Family name, and one is adopted by Zhuge Zhi as a grandson.
Only Zhao Xuran and Zhao Guangran are surnamed Zhao. If Zhao Guangran marries into another family, that would mean Zhao Gang’s four sons would have grandchildren with four different surnames.
Gong Ruini really couldn’t imagine Zhao Gang and his wife’s expressions, especially since the Zhao family’s situation doesn’t necessarily require a son to marry in.
"So do you think it’s possible?" Wang Yufan was also very helpless.
"It’s not right, Sister Lili got married off." No, this kid must have been misled; Gong Ruini snapped back to her senses.
Gong Ruini remembered Cao Na mentioning before that Cao Li was the main focus of the Cao Family’s cultivation. It doesn’t make sense for the main focus to be married off, yet Cao Na must bring a son-in-law into the family.
"Do you think my brother-in-law’s family is better than the Zhao family?" Wang Yufan really didn’t understand why, despite being a smart person, Gong Ruini was so muddled at this moment.
Such an obvious reasoning, she couldn’t see it. Is she playing dumb or unwilling to understand?
Which is better? Gong Ruini was a bit angry, no, very angry.
Even though they couldn’t currently match Cao Li’s husband’s family’s status, Wang Yufan’s obvious disdain, even if his intentions were good, made people feel all kinds of uncomfortable.
Gong Ruini really wanted to just walk away, she always considered herself to have good relations with the Wang Brothers, never needing to beg or flatter anyone, so why did he always feel so self-satisfied?
"Are we necessarily worse than you?" Gong Ruini wanted to explode, to point at Wang Yufan’s nose and say, don’t look down on people, have you not heard the saying ’thirty years east of the river, thirty years west’?
But her hand almost lifted, in the end, she held back, only helplessly saying this one line.
She didn’t get angry, which made Wang Yufan a bit confused. To be honest, Gong Ruini’s momentum just now rose sharply, startling him.
From the collected evidence, Gong Ruini really wasn’t an ordinary girl, but in their interactions, Gong Ruini was just a cheerful girl. Who knew that everything was just an act?
Wang Yufan was really quite impressed by Gong Ruini afterward. If it were him being looked down upon like that, if not fighting back, he’d at least feel awful and absolutely wouldn’t give the person any friendly reception.
He’d definitely let the person know that the consequence of looking down on people was painful, but Gong Ruini managed to hold back.
"Not worse. You will develop, but we will also develop, or develop faster than you." Wang Yufan said calmly, of course, adding a bit of something extra.
Developing faster than them? Haha, Gong Ruini didn’t say a word. Gong Ruini didn’t know what effect her little butterfly’s crossing would have on the development of the Cai, Wan, and Gong families.
But one thing was clear: without her involvement in the past life, and without Zhuge Zhi’s all-out help, Zhan Jing could still bring the Shiyu Hall brand back to life, proving that the whole family wasn’t useless.
This life’s development is faster than the previous one, and it’ll definitely be better. Gong Ruini really wanted to say, you can’t look down on the Zhao family, but thinking about it, saying so is meaningless.
No matter what she said, in Wang Yufan’s eyes, who’s all into himself, it’d be an excuse.
Since that’s the case, why not let the facts speak for themselves? "In twenty years, let’s talk again."
"Okay." Wang Yufan didn’t know why Gong Ruini was so confident. Since this girl is determined to compete again in twenty years, let’s look forward to it then.
For the rest of the trip, Gong Ruini became very quiet, speaking as little as possible.
"What’s wrong?" Cao Na found it strange. Clearly, Gong Ruini and Wang Yufan were chatting happily before; how come she’s suddenly not talking, maintaining a big distance? What’s going on?
"Nothing, I just feel hot." Gong Ruini forced a smile; she didn’t know how Cao Na viewed Wang Yufan’s standpoint.
Maybe she would agree, maybe she wouldn’t, but why let her know and make her caught in a difficult position?
"It is quite hot." Zhao Guangran was a bit surprised why Gong Ruini was so quiet, but the fact that she didn’t jump in to compete for Cao Na made Zhao Guangran very happy.
To commend Gong Ruini for keeping Wang Yufan in check, Zhao Guangran treated her to cold drinks and good food, doing his best to make her feel appreciated.
