Chapter 402 Fighting for favor
"I just wanted to praise you for your calmness, but now I see it's still a small jump." Ji Wan opened her arms and caught Fu Zhaoyi, who was flying over like a bird. Her tone sounded reproachful, but in fact she was full of heart. Eyes full of favor.
"How old is Little Gemini? It's not a bad thing for a child to be a little adventurous. It's not fun to be as old-fashioned as that stinky boy Fu Wei. Don't get tired of your mommy, and do things from beginning to end..." Mr. Fu sighed in a good mood. After a few words, he immediately urged Fu Zhaoyi to come back and fight again.
The atmosphere at the scene was so good that Fu Zixiang felt uncomfortable watching it. Fu Zhaoyi was deeply loved by Mr. Fu, and even Ji Wan was a guest of the Fu family. Not to mention that brat Fu Wei, who is so obsessed with women, where does he have a place in this family?
There were either elders or juniors in the villa. She couldn't help but lose face and had a fit, so she simply went out, out of sight and out of mind. She was wearing high heels, and the sound of her leaving footsteps was aggravated by her mood swings. Ji Wan, who was always attentive, noticed it.
"Zi Xiang has been spoiled since he was a child, and his temper is a bit squeamish, but his nature is not bad. You don't need to take it to heart. The sunshine outside is good. If you can't sit still, you can walk around in the yard and get more sunshine. Good for the little ones.”
Mr. Fu was distracted and noticed Ji Wan's side eyes. He sighed and explained lightly. Fu Zixiang is older than Fu Wei. He is obviously the elder, but his temper is still the same as when he was young. He has a short temper.
Ji Wan nodded naturally, and searched for information about the Fu family in her mind. When she was a secretary under Fu Wei, she also participated in many family gatherings. At least she knew the young people in power who were about the same age as Fu Wei, and the older generation who had already given up half of their power.
On the contrary, she paid less attention to people of a moderate seniority like Fu Zixiang. It was inappropriate for him and Little Jewel to come to Fu's house as guests and steal the spotlight from the host's house. Ji Wan wanted to make up for it.
The chess game between Fu Zhaoyi and Mr. Fu was still going on. Ji Wan glanced at the grandfather and grandson who got along well with each other, stood up and walked out of the villa door.
She has always been an action person. Now that she has decided to apologize to Fu Zixiang, it would be best to ask Fu Wei, a member of her family, about the gift options: "What gift does your aunt like? I have been at home for two days and this is the first time we meet. I can’t go back and forth empty-handed.”
When Fu Wei received the news from Ji Wan, he had just withdrawn from the supplier's entertainment. When he saw the word aunt, he was confused. After thinking for a moment, he realized that there was indeed such an elder.
The Fu family has a high level of development, with hundreds of members in both the branch and main families. A family like this generally does not allow bloodlines to be mixed up, and there is no need to adopt outsiders to enrich the family. But Fu Zixiang is different. She is not from the Fu family. To be precise, she is not a legitimate Fu family.
Fu Zixiang was brought back directly by Mr. Fu one year ago, and he went through the adoption procedures the day after he brought him back. Without any special explanation, many people speculated whether Fu Zixiang was Mr. Fu's bloodline outside of marriage.
Divorce is harmful to a man's image, especially when the man's image is also linked to the corporate image. A happy family is also an invisible bonus for entrepreneurs. This speculation is not groundless.
When he got it back, Fu Zixiang was still young and his eyebrows had not grown, so even if he had any doubts, he would only discuss it privately. But as Fu Zixiang grew up, there were more rumors, and these remarks also caused Fu Zixiang's personality to become more sensitive.
"It should just be outsiders trying to catch people, right? The old man doesn't seem to be a carefree person." After hearing the whole story, Ji Wan felt a little hesitant in his heart. The first time she saw Fu Zixiang, she thought she had a good temperament. She looked like she was a daughter from a family background, but she didn't think of Mr. Fu. "Probably. I don't know what this aunt likes. You can buy it if you want. There is an old man over at Little Jewelry. You just happen to go out for shopping. It would also be good to meet friends for milk tea..."
Fu Wei didn't comment on Fu Zixiang. Although he was his aunt in name, he had never met her very often. Maybe he had met her when he was a child, but when he got older, he only had a few contacts with her.
He actually didn't think it was necessary for Ji Wan to worry about such a trivial relative, but it was true that he could take this opportunity to let Ji Wan relax. I know it's better to go shopping than to just concentrate on work.
"Okay, okay, I understand. Use a designated driver, right? You go ahead and do your work. I hear you are driving all the time and watch the road carefully." Ji Wan warned with a smile, nodded with the housekeeper of the Fu family's old house, and left. .
When Ji Wan walked out of Ji's old house, Fu Zixiang slowly walked out from the corridor on the other side. She looked at Ji Wan's back and felt an unprecedented sense of crisis. She exhaled heavily, made sure that she had managed her expression correctly, and then walked back into the living room with a smile on her face.
"Old man, I'm going out for a trip. I didn't come back alone. Xiaoqi also came back with me. It's just that her flight was a little late and she kept talking about you when she was abroad..."
Fu Zixiang seemed to be just explaining his upcoming trip, but in fact he was hinting to Mr. Fu to arrange a pick-up at the airport.
Ji Wan is not the only one who has children. She also has a daughter, who has been raised abroad to receive higher education. She is also a tall and graceful girl, not a child like Fu Zhaoyi, who has no hair at all.
"Grandpa, I really can't think of anything. How about we stop here today? I'll go back to the room and take a nap." Fu Zhaoyi, a smart little guy, was the first to realize Fu Zixiang's subtext, and he wisely chose to leave.
Mr. Fu cared about his children, so Fu Zhaoyi took the initiative to mention it. It happened that Fu Zixiang also needed to make arrangements himself. He didn't leave anyone behind, but just ordered the housekeeper to take Fu Zhaoyi to the second floor to rest.
"I'm tired too. The housekeeper will come down later to arrange the pick-up. I'll prepare a big red envelope for Xiao Qi..."
Fu Zixiang originally thought that without Fu Zhaoyi, a careful and cunning person, his daughter would be able to rise to the top. What he didn't expect was that Mr. Fu's energy had actually been consumed. She felt her eyebrows pounding, but she didn't have the guts to force Mr. Fu's wishes.
The housekeeper made the arrangements himself, which can actually be regarded as giving his daughter face. As for the old man, he just focused on preparing big red envelopes...
