Chapter 106: 060: Exposing the Masked Grandma Lu_1

Hearing this, Grandma Lu’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, "To cry even for a dead stray dog?"

It wasn’t that Grandma Lu hadn’t seen emotional people before.

But she had never seen someone as emotional as Fang Hongyu.

Although a stray dog is pitiable, it’s not a dog that was raised from a pup, and it’s normal to cry when one’s own dog dies, but without any emotional attachment, she didn’t know how Fang Hongyu could cry like that.

Fang Youling nodded, "Yes."

Grandma Lu narrowed her eyes, "Then she truly is a sentimental child."

After saying this, Grandma Lu added, "But don’t you think it’s very fake?"

Grandma Lu also liked dogs.

She had owned them in earlier years.

The day her pet dog died, she cried all day without eating and swore she would never own a dog again.

Upon hearing this, Fang Hongyu was stunned for a moment.

Grandma Lu said again, "Some kindness can be feigned."

Fang Youling, who started a business from scratch with her husband and developed the Tang Family into what it was today, was naturally no ordinary person.

But in recent years, she was too busy looking for her daughter to scrutinize the people around her closely.

Besides,

Fang Hongyu had always been her favorite niece in her heart.

Once she viewed Fang Hongyu through the filter of gentleness and kindness, she would never be able to see through the facade to the essence.

But Grandma Lu was different.

Without any filters towards Fang Hongyu, she could spot the problem at first glance.

Since the conversation had reached this point, Grandma Lu looked at Fang Youling and continued, "Youling, I think your niece is not a simple character. If our lives were a palace drama, she would at least have the script of Hua Fei."

Hua Fei was a master of palace intrigue.

Fang Hongyu was also enacting her own scheme of emotional manipulation.

Previously, Grandma Lu hadn’t paid much attention to Fang Youling and hadn’t interacted much with her, and thus she didn’t know what kind of person she was.

But through the contact of these past few days,

Grandma Lu felt more and more that there was something odd about Fang Hongyu at every turn.

Although Tang Qiushui disappeared on a day when she was in school,

this didn’t absolve Fang Hongyu of any connection to the incident.

Hearing this, Fang Youling looked up at Grandma Lu, "Sister Ah Yao, Hongyu is someone I’ve watched grow up, I don’t think she’s that kind of person."

Grandma Lu understood that Fang Youling might not accept such a reality at once; she patted her hand, "Whether she is that kind of person, you may not be wrong, and I may not be wrong. You just need to keep an eye out in your future life, that’s all."

A fox would always show its tail eventually.

It’s hard to walk by the river and not get one’s shoes wet.

With that said, Grandma Lu continued, "Take today’s incident for example, who in their right mind would give a beggar thousands of yuan at once? Clearly, she was putting on a show in front of you, to strengthen the impression of her gentle and kind nature in your heart."

In fact, this was also a form of psychological control.

Using a term that’s very popular online, it’s like CPU.

Keeping up with the times, Grandma Lu often watched short videos and had listened to lectures from psychological experts. Therefore, she could see very clearly through Fang Hongyu’s actions in front of her.

But Fang Youling was different; aside from being busy with business matters and looking for her daughter, she had neither the time to attend psychology lectures nor to watch short videos. The information they each accessed was different, and naturally, the knowledge they understood was not the same.

If it came to doing business, Fang Youling could sell Grandma Lu in a sack, and Grandma Lu would happily count the money for her.

But when it comes to human nature,

clearly, Grandma Lu had a more transparent view than Fang Youling.

From her angle, Fang Hongyu could just catch a glimpse of Grandma Lu saying something more.

But because she was too far to hear the specifics.

Fang Hongyu understood Fang Youling, but she didn’t understand Grandma Lu. Sometimes the onlooker sees clearer than the player.

If Grandma Lu said something unpleasant and Fang Youling took it to heart,

wouldn’t Fang Hongyu’s years of hard work have been in vain?

No.

After all her years of hard work managing everything in the Tang Family, why should it all be undone by a word or two from Grandma Lu?

Fang Hongyu’s expression remained unchanged as she spoke a few polite words to the beggar and then approached the two elderly people, sighing, "That person just now really has it tough, so young and already homeless, plus terminally ill. He seems about the same age as Sister Qiushui, and I couldn’t help but give a little extra money, hoping his subsequent days will blossom and he won’t suffer anymore."

By the end, Fang Hongyu’s eyes had turned red.
