PFC Chapter 241 Bad Genes
Chapter 241 Bad Genes
My grandmother is a retired principal of a key middle school, and she still speaks like a teacher.
They also liked this little grandson, but they had never taken care of him since he was young, and their relationship with his mother was not as good as that with other grandchildren.
"Xiao Rui, what place did you get in the final exam this year? Come to think of it, you and I are schoolmates." Lei Lei's mouth was always busy.
"Uh... I don't know. There's no ranking."
Wang Borui hesitated.
Every time he attended a party at his grandfather's house, he was a little nervous, afraid of being asked about his grades.
Not everyone can be a top student like their older brothers and sisters. What can you do if you are not good enough?
"There are 50 students in each class of Haicheng Experimental School, and only the top are ranked each time. You are not ranked... Alas..."
Leilei stopped talking and everyone ate in silence.
"Bo Rui, I saw you were playing that game console just now. That thing looks very advanced and high-end."
Grandma's voice was still kind and Wang Boyui's eyes flashed with excitement.
Finally, he got to the point where he excelled.
"Grandma, that's the latest model. It's a birthday present from my mom. She specially asked someone to bring it back from the United States. It's much better than those junk products in China."
Wang Borui talked incessantly, and the smugness on his face made his grandmother feel cold.
"Fang Shu, you have to have a method to educate Bo Rui. You can't just spoil him blindly. Playing with things will only lead to his losing ambition. If you let Bo Rui continue like this, not only will his grades suffer, but he will also have problems with his perseverance and determination in doing anything."
Grandma's gaze shifted from Fang Shu to Wang Liheng's face, her brows furrowed, with undisguised disappointment and worry in her eyes.
"Liheng, you can't be busy with work all day. Your job is basically finalized. Put more energy on your child. What are you going to do with this grade and this habit in the future?"
Wang Liheng looked at Niu Fangshu and Wang Boyui who were lowering their heads, and felt annoyed.
"Mom, I understand. I'll take care of it when I get back. Alas, I didn't worry about Manning at all back then. He always came in first place."
Wang Manning pursed her lips and said cheerfully, "Dad, don't praise me. It's because I have good genes."
Wang Liheng's eyebrows jumped.
Fortunately, I did a paternity test when he was born, otherwise I would really suspect that this son was not my own. I was a top student who graduated from Jiaotong University.
Wang Borui ate the beef on the plate, mumbling to himself.
"That's right, I have bad genes. Look at my sister, she's even worse at studying. I'm at least not at the bottom, but my sister always ranks last."
After these words were spoken, the atmosphere became cold again. Everyone lowered their eyelids and focused on the dishes in front of them. The only sound in the room was the clatter of dishes and chopsticks. It was so quiet that it was embarrassing.
Wang Manning glanced at the colorful faces of Niu Fangshu and Min Jingyi, and she was almost laughing like crazy.
Oh my god, I didn't expect that a casual and polite remark I made without thinking would be interpreted in such an effect by this illegitimate brother.
Hahaha, Niu Fangshu and her burden, how embarrassing.
I really want to stab you again.
......
On the way back in the taxi, Wang Manning couldn't stop laughing and kept wiping away her tears.
"Oh, that's so funny. I'm dying of laughter. Haha..."
The driver was a middle-aged man. He looked at Wang Manning in the rearview mirror and couldn't help laughing.
"Miss, you are so happy. It seems that something great has happened to you."
"Yeah, I saw a joke about my stepmother and was very happy." Wang Manning wiped her tears and nodded.
Wang Man handed Wang Manning a tissue and whispered, "Honey, don't be like this. We are all family. This is not good."
"I do. It's so hard to have a happy moment. Don't spoil the fun." Wang Manning took the tissue and looked at Wang Man with a cold look in her eyes.
Wang Man still advised earnestly: "If you do this, you should also think about our father's feelings. He will be very sad."
Wang Manning crumpled the paper into a ball impatiently.
"I didn't laugh in front of him, so why is it wrong to gloat behind his back? When you said all this, why didn't you think about whether I would be sad?"
The driver looked at Wang Manning with a sullen face in the rearview mirror and couldn't help but speak out.
"Young man, as long as it's not a matter of principle, you and your wife should always be on the same side. You have to stand on her side and speak."
Wang Man was a little confused: "But, I'm doing this for her own good."
"For her own good, just make her happy." The driver looked at Wang Man in the rearview mirror, shook his head and said no more.
Wang Manning placed her hands on her belly and looked out the window in silence.
The entire journey was speechless.
......
The next day, Wang Manning said that she wanted to stay with her mother in Haicheng for a few more days, so she asked Wang Man to return to Beijing by herself.
Wang Manning went to the surrounding ancient towns alone for a few days. When she returned to Haicheng, she said something to Xiao Yu.
"Mom, this world is so beautiful, why should I be so hard on myself?"
......
On the day of the Lantern Festival, Wang Manning went to deliver rice dumplings to Wang Liheng and went to her room to get something.
Only Min Jingyi was at home. Wang Liheng and Niu Fangshu took Wang Boyui out.
Wang Manning put the dumplings in the refrigerator, went back to her bedroom and got a small iron box. As soon as she walked out of the bedroom door, she saw Min Jingyi standing in front of her.
"Sister, why did you stay in Haicheng for so long without your brother-in-law accompanying you?"
Wang Manning frowned slightly.
"You really are a worrier. I like staying in Haicheng. I have rooms at my mom's and dad's houses, and I also have my own house."
"A cunning rabbit has three burrows. I can live anywhere and be as happy as I want. Of course, I have to stay for a while."
When Wang Liheng and Xiao Yu divorced, they divided the family assets into three equal parts, and Wang Manning took one of them.
This one-third of assets is not a small amount. Xiao Yu helped her buy a small apartment in Haicheng, saying that real estate is a good investment.
Wang Manning also wanted to buy a house in Beijing, but Xiao Yu suggested that she should wait and not put all the money in one basket.
In fact, Xiao Yu couldn't see through Wang Man and wanted to wait for them to be stable for two years before buying. She was worried that her innocent daughter would suffer.
Now it seems that this decision was a wise one.
Min Jingyi couldn't hide the hatred in her eyes:
"Isn't it just a few bucks? They are all earned by your parents, not your own money. What's there to show off?"
Wang Manning looked innocent:
"I'm not showing off. You're the one who asked, and I'm just answering you truthfully. If you didn't ask, who would tell you these things?"
"Besides, it's true that it's my parents' money, but they are willing to spend it on me. I am so good at reincarnation. I don't fight or compete. My parents gave me one third of their family property. I can't envy them enough."
Min Jingyi's eyes were full of bloodthirsty red.
"You have so many places to live, yet you still want to fight with me for a bedroom. How can you be so vicious that you don't come to live here yourself and would rather leave it empty than let anyone else come out."
Wang Manning calmly watched the madness slowly gathering in her eyes, and suddenly something moved in her heart.
