Chapter 385: Chapter 384: Changing the Rules for Chi Gui

Mr. Fu rushed over upon receiving the news just in time to see Mrs. Fu trembling with anger.

He quickly went forward to have Mrs. Fu sit on the sofa, softly comforting her.

It wasn’t until Mrs. Fu gradually calmed down that Mr. Fu hesitated and then, as if making a firm decision, spoke, “Now only your successful comeback at the day after tomorrow’s Jade Appreciation Conference can severely retaliate against the mistreatment these people have given you!”

Mrs. Fu paused.

Mr. Fu glanced at Chi Guiyi.

Leaning against a nearby table, Chi Guiyi caught Mr. Fu’s gaze and nodded, “Aunt Fu, you are the only one who can restore your parents’ honor and dignity now.”

Mrs. Fu clutched Mr. Fu’s hand with a slight force.

She also struggled internally.

In fact, when she had looked at those jewelry design drafts and finished pieces today, she had been touched.

But the shadows of the past were too overwhelming; that’s why she had hesitated to make a decision.

But now…

Mrs. Fu looked at Mr. Zheng and Mrs. Zheng, whose hair had turned gray, seemingly much older, and she tightly held Mr. Fu’s hand, “My work… is it really okay?”

Mrs. Zheng was most concerned about Mrs. Fu’s mental state. Hearing her waver, she quickly spoke up, “The family splitting up is quite alright, it will be more convenient for you to visit us later… there’s no need for you to force yourself to attend that appreciation meeting…”

After all, it had been over twenty years since Mrs. Fu last dealt with design!

What Mrs. Zheng feared most was that her work would be laughably outdated and become a mockery!

Rather than seeing Mrs. Fu hurt by setbacks, Mrs. Zheng would prefer to split up the family just like that.

While they were talking, the butler led two people in through the doorway.

He glanced at the situation in the living room, hesitated, and said, “Excuse me, this Mr. Ma Donglai, and the president of the Jewelry Association… they say they’ve come to see Professor Chi…”

The president of the Jewelry Association?

Everyone in the living room looked toward the two people at the door.

They saw an elder in a hemp shirt, looking hale and hearty, standing behind the butler, while the president of the Huaxia Jewelry Association followed behind.

The relationship and status between the two were clear at a glance.

Chi Gui recognized the elder as the owner of the exhibition booth and let out an “Ah,” “Sorry, it’s inconvenient to talk here…”

She turned her head to borrow a guest room from Granny Fu and then led Ma Donglai and the president of the Jewelry Association into it.

As the door closed behind them, those outside were still not quite able to react.

Mrs. Zheng asked in a daze, “Who is that elderly gentleman?”

With even the president of the Huaxia Jewelry Association accompanying him personally, his status must be very high.

Mrs. Fu shook her head, “At the appreciation event, Miss Chi bought a raw stone from his booth…”

She recounted the story of the Jade Appreciation Conference.

“Could this be some renowned Jade Appraiser from the International Jewelry Association who wants to take Professor Chi as an apprentice?” Mr. Zheng, having come from a jewelry family, had some understanding of these matters.

But that was as far as he could guess.

Yet even this guess was enough to shock everyone in the living room.

A Jade Appraiser certified by the International Jewelry Association… If he were to recommend her, even just having her name in the Association would significantly elevate her status!

Mrs. Zheng fell silent for a moment before Youyou spoke up, “I… recently heard that Professor Chi isn’t doing very well in the medical field… If she could enter the International Jewelry Association through this, although it’s not as prestigious as the medical field… it could still be a good path…”

No one spoke.

The entire hall fell into silence.

Everyone stared at the closed door of the guest room, curious about what would be discussed inside.
