Although it was just a dream, Yuan Xiao could feel Fang Yao’s sadness.
“Is the dream reminding me not to ignore Fang Yao’s feelings? I seem to have focused too much on research recently.”
Yuan Xiao silently decided to try her best to put Fang Yao first in the future.
Glancing at her roommate, who was still sleeping soundly, Yuan Xiao carefully climbed out of bed and walked into the bathroom to tidy herself up. Yuan Xiao remembered her meeting time with Fang Yao and walked out of the dormitory a few minutes early.
Yuan Xiao did not expect Fang Yao to already be downstairs. She hurriedly walked towards him.
“Why are you here so early? Didn’t we agree on seven o’clock?”
“I want to see you earlier.” Fang Yao scratched his head in embarrassment.
Ever since Yuan Xiao came to University A, Fang Yao smiled much more often. “Isn’t there a freshman orientation later? Let’s go together after breakfast.”
Looking at the smiling Fang Yao, Yuan Xiao frowned slightly and asked, “Don’t you have class? Are you going to accompany me for the entire day?”
“Not in the morning. I’ll go to class in the afternoon.” Fang Yao smiled and said to Yuan Xiao, “Do you think I’m someone who doesn’t value my studies? I made a bet with my brother. I definitely won’t lose to him!”
Looking at Fang Yao’s serious expression, Yuan Xiao could not help but ask,
“Brother Fang Ming? What bet did you make with him?”
“If my graduation results are top in the entire faculty, he will come back to inherit the Fang Corporation.”
Hearing Fang Yao’s words, Yuan Xiao’s eyes widened unconsciously. She asked in disbelief, “Top in the entire faculty? You’re really ambitious. Do you really think that all the students of University A sneaked in from the back door? I don’t even dare to make that bet…
Yuan Xiao felt that Fang Yao and Fang Ming’s bet was not realistic. If they meant first in class, there was still some hope. The graduates of University A had always been recognized in the country as being competent individuals, so there was almost no one in the school who was not capable.
Although Fang Yao’s learning ability was not bad, it was really difficult for him to fight for first place.
“I had no choice. I forced my brother to make a bet with me. He’s determined and doesn’t want the business.” Fang Yao was also very helpless. Fang Ming would not ask about the family’s company at all. Now that Fang Yao was studying management, Fang Yuan had placed his hopes on him. Fang Yao felt that he had been schemed against by Fang Ming.
“What’s wrong with the Fang Corporation? Do the two of you have to avoid it like this?” Yuan Xiao still remembered how powerful the Fang Corporation was in her previous life. It was also because of the Fang Corporation that Fang Yao squeezed into list of wealthiest young men.
“It’s not that it’s bad. Who doesn’t want to do what they want? I always feel constrained when I’m pestered by family matters.”
Looking at the rebellious Fang Yao, Yuan Xiao felt that he was indignant that Fang Ming did not care about his family matters at all. Actually, Fang Yao was not that resistant to doing business.
Fang Yao just saw that his brother had achieved some results in the medical world, so he did not want to lose to him.
Actually, Fang Yao was indeed comparing himself to Fang Ming in his heart. If his brother could do it without relying on his family background, he had to be able to do the same. Moreover, he could not be inferior to Fang Ming. That was why he was so resistant to inheriting his family’s business.
‘Entering the Fang Corporation doesn’t necessarily mean that you’ll lose your freedom.” Yuan Xiao changed her method and explained to Fang Yao, “You can rely on your own management methods to expand your family’s business. At that time, you’ll still be recognized by everyone.”
Yuan Xiao knew that Fang Yao would not be able to escape the fate of the original book, but she still hoped that he would be happier. Accepting the family’s business was not a sign of cowardice. Yuan Xiao wanted Fang Yao to understand this.
“Alright, I’ll listen to you. Even if I get first place in the entire faculty, I can’t pretend not to see that my family’s business needs people. It’s just that my brother is used to doing whatever he wants. I also want him to hit a wall once.”
Fang Yao and Fang Mings previous relationship was very unique. The two brothers usually looked very close and harmonious, but in fact, the two of them were secretly competing. They could not stand each other, but they cared about each other. This contradiction and paradox were clear.
Yuan Xiao and Fang Yao went to the canteen for breakfast. Yuan Xiao sent a message to Wang Xin. Seeing that she did not reply, she prepared to buy her breakfast.
Thinking of Zhou Nan and Xu Wan, Yuan Xiao hesitated. She did not know if she should bring breakfast back for them.
“What’s wrong? Didn’t you want to buy breakfast for your new roommates?” Fang Yao looked at Yuan Xiao, who had not moved for a long time, and asked curiously..
