Chapter 239: Chapter 238: Enjoying the Good Life with Brother

Professor Chi is the girl their son is interested in??

What kind of joyous surprise is this?!

For a moment, Mr. Fu and Mrs. Fu looked at Fu Si with much kinder eyes.

A perplexed Fu Si: ?

Chi Gui, unaffected by the mix-up, focused on signing the documents and handed them to Xiang Nuan, “Thank you for your hard work. I’ll have Xing Gu send you back.”

Xiang Nuan nodded hastily, eager to leave this awkward place at the speed of light.

Once Xiang Nuan had left, Chi Gui turned to Mr. Fu and Mrs. Fu, stood up, and greeted them politely, “Hello, uncle and auntie. I’ll be troubling you for lunch today.”

“Not at all! We love having young people over, it’s lively!” Mrs. Fu warmly took Chi Gui’s hand and led her to the dining table. “Feel free to ask for anything you’d like to eat; our chefs are specially hired and can make anything!”

Old Sir Fu followed behind them, smiling and not minding their informality at all.

Fu Si lazily greeted Fu Chengzhou and followed them to the table.

In the end, it was Mr. Fu who called Jinxiu and the others to join them for the meal.

Old Sir Fu’s obviously dismissive attitude left Jinxiu and Xia Jinjin paler by another shade.

Fu Wen sighed and walked over to Xia Jinjin, putting an arm around her, “Let’s join them. Consider this a lesson; be more cautious with your words in the future.”

Old Sir Fu was doting on Professor Chi as if she were his own flesh and blood, not to mention Fu Si, his true pride and joy.

Jinxiu’s brash misunderstanding had not only insulted Old Sir Fu’s two treasures in every possible way.

It was only for Professor Chi’s sake that Old Sir Fu hadn’t immediately sent them packing.

Fu Wen understood the situation very clearly. He knew his own limits and was aware that he could never surpass his brother, so he set his life goal early—to live comfortably in his brother’s shadow.

This meal was particularly uncomfortable for Xia Jinjin.

All her prideful traits were insignificant compared to Professor Chi.

Combined with the poor impression she had left on Old Sir Fu, Xia Jinjin found herself unable to speak a single word throughout the meal.

When she had first arrived at the Fu Family home, she had looked down on Xiang Nuan, not even deigning to speak.

But she never expected she would lose her chance to speak from thereon.

As they were leaving, Xia Jinjin couldn’t help but feel resentful toward Jinxiu.

If it weren’t for Jinxiu’s bluster, she wouldn’t have been implicated and left Old Sir Fu with a bad impression.

After enduring the meal, the Jinxiu family hastily said their goodbyes and left.

Old Sir Fu merely nodded indifferently, reminding them to be careful on their way.

Then he turned and kindly asked Chi Gui if she would like to stay for a few days.

“I won’t stay,” Chi Gui said with a smile, “I’d like to visit my grandma in Cloud Village tomorrow.”

Hearing this, Old Sir Fu didn’t press the matter further, only asking her to send his regards to her grandmother.

Chi Gui smiled and agreed.

As Xia Jinjin got into the car, she overheard the conversation behind her, clenched her teeth fiercely, and crumpled the hem of her dress in her hands.

–

After lunch, Fu Si escorted Chi Gui back to her apartment complex.

As he was about to leave, Fu Si suddenly asked, “Is your grandmother’s house big?”

Chi Gui closed the car door and gave him a deep look, “It’s not big, only enough for one person to live in.”

Fu Si nodded and said nothing more.

The next day.

Chi Gui took a flight back to Nancheng, and upon landing, a tall bodyguard in a black suit was there to pick her up.

Considering that Cloud Village was just a remote little village, the bodyguard had specially switched to an ordinary modified sedan. Once Chi Gui settled in, they drove off towards Cloud Village.
