Fang Yuanyuan said, "Now that the truth has been revealed, I'm happy enough that Sister Yezi doesn't blame me. How can I let Sister Yezi persuade Brother Xiao Bing to accept me as his disciple? But I don't know why Yezi insisted that Brother Xiao Bing accompany me back to my hometown. She said that it might help Brother Xiao Bing to accept me as his disciple. "
Fang Yi's eyes flickered, and then she showed a look of admiration.
Fang Yuan Sheng was also stunned for a moment before revealing a pondering expression, a smile appearing on his lips.
Fang Qiu's mother was also completely confused. Just like her eldest daughter, she didn't think that there was any use in asking an outsider to accompany them back. Could it be that he was here to back them up? If that was the case, it would be good. A deputy minister would go back with them. Let's see if those people would still be like this.
Fang Yuansheng's mother's thoughts were very simple, but Fang Yuansheng and Fang Yi had vaguely guessed Ye Xiaoxi's intention. They admired and appreciated her.
Of course, there were still many variables in this matter. For example, Xiao Bing might not really agree to accompany Fang Yuanyuan back to her hometown. The power of Yezi's pillow talk had not been tested yet. Even if Xiao Bing went back with them, he might not accept Fang Yuanyuan as his disciple. In short, there might be some hope, but they couldn't make a direct judgment.
Fang Yuansheng looked at his two daughters and said, "If you two want to go with us, I won't stop you. We'll come back immediately after the birthday. But you must be mentally prepared."
"Okay, dad, don't worry." Fang Yuanyuan raised her fist and said, "I'm not afraid of them."
Fang Yuansheng smiled bitterly.
Fang Yi said calmly, "Dad, don't worry."
"Okay." Fang Yuansheng trusted his youngest daughter. Fang Yi had always been mature and steady. She would think before she acted, unlike his eldest daughter who was impulsive.
Fang Yi took Fang Yuanyuan's arm and said to her parents, "Dad, Mom, we'll go back with you. It's getting late. My sister and I will go to sleep."
"Go, have a good rest."
Walking out of the room, Fang Yi waved to Fang Yuanyuan and said good night. Then she went back to her room. Fang Yuanyuan also went back to her room. Then she lay on the bed and looked up at the ceiling. She couldn't figure out why asking Xiao Bing to go home with her had anything to do with Xiao Bing accepting her as his apprentice.
The next day, Fang Yuanyuan came to the Xiao Mansion. Xiao Bing did not go out today because Yezi asked him to stay. After Fang Yuanyuan arrived, Yezi dragged Xiao Bing out to entertain Fang Yuanyuan. After a while, Yezi went to Su Xiaoxiao's room to talk.
Only Fang Yuanyuan and Xiao Bing were left in the room. Fang Yuanyuan lowered her head. She didn't look like the hot girl she used to be. Instead, she was a bit reserved.
Xiao Bing said with a wry smile, "Your expression makes me a little uneasy."
Fang Yuanyuan asked, "Can we go out and talk?"
"Mm, sure." Xiao Bing followed Fang Yuanyuan out of the hall and sat down on a stool in the pavilion in the yard. They sat face to face.
Xiao Bing looked at Fang Yuanyuan and said with a smile, "What do you want to say? Just say it. But first, I really don't want to accept any apprentices. I know that's what you want, but there's no need to mention it."
Fang Yuanyuan hesitated for a moment. But thinking of what Yezi said before, this matter had more to do with accepting apprentices. So Fang Yuanyuan gathered her courage and said, "I won't ask you to accept me as your apprentice. But I want to ask you something else. If you agree, I won't pester you about this anymore."
Xiao Bing heaved a sigh of relief, but he did not feel relaxed at all. What could make Fang Yuanyuan compromise? She was even willing to accept an apprentice as an equal exchange. It must not be something simple.
Seeing Xiao Bing being so cautious, Fang Yuanyuan decided to go all out. She looked up and said, "In a few days, my family of four will go back to my hometown to celebrate my great-grandfather's birthday. I want you to go with me!"
"That won't do!" Xiao Bing was startled and said quickly, "Don't think too much. I already have your sister-in-law. Your sister Yezi is my woman. Aren't you two friends? You can't steal a friend's husband, right? And I'm not interested in you … "
"Bah, as if I'm interested in you." Fang Yuanyuan added in her mind, "I am interested in you. But don't you already have a woman? Plus, I'm not a love-struck fool."
Xiao Bing let out a sigh of relief and asked, "Then what do you mean?"
"Well … how should I put it? Because the people in my hometown don't like me. So I want someone who can stand on my side and support me. Just say that you're my friend. If it doesn't work, pretend to be my boyfriend … Don't overthink it. It's just a fake, not real."
"Oh," Xiao Bing said. He understood a little, but he was still a little confused. He asked, "That's not right. Your father is a director in the Ministry of Public Security. If your father goes to a local city, most people will be polite to him. Who would dare to bully you?"
"They are all my father's family. My father can't bully them with his power. What's more, in front of his own family, it's not good for my father to lose his temper, so every family gathering is like that. I don't even want to go back. This time, my father said that he wouldn't let me go back, but I know that if I don't go back, they will mock and criticize my father again. I'm already so old, I can't put all the pressure on my father alone. "
"Well, that's what it is." Xiao Bing thought for a moment and said, "You mean that if I go back with you as your friend, your father can't be the good guy. But as an outsider, I don't have to care. So I can put down those people's arrogance and support you. Is that what you mean?"
Fang Yuanyuan quickly nodded and said angrily, "Many times I wanted to explode, but my father was there to stop me. But you're a higher official than my father. You don't have to be polite to those people. My father won't dare to say anything."
Xiao Bing said with a wry smile, "But this is your family business. What's more, it's your father's birthday. It's really inappropriate for me to get involved. I think I'd better forget it."
"That won't do. I won't ask you to accept me as your disciple. Can't you promise me … We'll come back after we go. It will only take two or three days at most. After that, you can get rid of me. What do you say?"
Xiao Bing was a little hesitant and a little tempted. But he still shook his head and said, "No. If your sister-in-law knows that I pretend to be your boyfriend, she won't be happy."
"I'm fine. I won't be unhappy."
Yezi actually heard it. She came out of the room and walked to this side. Xiao Bing touched his nose and looked at Yezi. Yezi walked to the pavilion and said with a smile, "Big bad guy, you can help her this time. Don't worry, I have no opinion."
"Well …" Seeing that Yezi said so, Xiao Bing no longer refused and agreed, "Well, when will it be?"
"The morning after tomorrow. Thank you, Brother Xiao. I'll ask my father to book plane tickets for us."
"Okay." Xiao Bing said with a wry smile, "Let's make this clear. If I help you this time, you're not allowed to pester me to accept you as my disciple anymore."
"Mm, it's a deal, it's a deal."
"It's a deal."
Fang Yuanyuan didn't stay too long today. After Xiao Bing agreed, she thanked him and left with Fang Yi. They still had to prepare a gift for her father's birthday.
After Fang Yuanyuan left, Xiao Bing looked at Yezi and asked, "You really don't mind?"
"I really don't mind." When Yezi smiled, there were two dimples on her face. Her eyes were curved like the moon, which looked very charming.
Xiao Bing said, "Well, since you don't mind, I'll help her. Otherwise, I don't have to help her."
"It's just a matter of convenience. Besides, I think Fang Yuanyuan is actually a good person."
"Yes, she's a good person. Otherwise, I wouldn't have allowed her to come into the Xiao Mansion to see you. It's just that her personality is a bit impulsive and inflexible. She wants to learn martial arts wholeheartedly, which doesn't make sense. However, after I help her complete this task, no matter how she wants to learn martial arts in the future, it has nothing to do with me."
Yezi said with a smile, "You won't take her as your disciple, will you?"
"Of course not!" Xiao Bing's eyes widened, "I finally got rid of her and I'll take her as my disciple? Don't be ridiculous. I'm not sick. "
Yezi giggled and said, "I'm just kidding." There was a hint of slyness in her eyes.
Xiao Bing said with a wry smile, "Okay, but I always feel that you're very strange. I can't tell you why. Are you hiding something from me?"
"Why would I?" Yezi raised her head and looked at Xiao Bing with a pair of big innocent eyes. Her pitiful look could melt people. She pouted and said pitifully, "Brother Xiao Bing doesn't trust me. Alas, I'm so sad. I don't know if I have trusted the wrong person in my life …"
Xiao Bing didn't expect that such a simple sentence could cause such a big trouble. Yezi raised his trust to the wrong person. Xiao Bing hurriedly said, "I'm kidding, I'm kidding. If I don't trust my wife, who else can I trust? Hehe …"
Yezi giggled and rolled her eyes at Xiao Bing. She said proudly, "That's more like it!"
Yezi, Yezi who looked like a little fox.
