#then we can assume JGS doesn't know that JGY was enmeshed with the Nie

[poorlittleyaoyao]

TFW your ex’s shitty dad tries to inaccurately mansplain his backstory to you.

“Yes, I know all about your bastard son whom you acknowledged yesterday for clout. :) I also know about the subtle insult of a courtesy name that you gave him. :) He lived at my house for several years after you bowled him down the stairs :) and I’m still processing our acrimonious divorce so I truly cannot believe :) that you are trying this right now. :)” 

#this also reveals that JGS has no idea what political affiliations JGY's bringing to the table #if he's assuming they don't know Meng Yao is his son (one of the Top Pieces Of Meng Yao Trivia!) #then we can assume JGS doesn't know that JGY was enmeshed with the Nie #or that LXC directly owes him his life #both of which would be EXTREMELY useful levers to pull except that JGS is TERRIBLE at strategy! #he thinks he's a political mastermind but he's just a douchebag #and for some godforsaken reason everyone's rolling with it
