Chapter 41 Huang Momo, you've really grown up!

Fu Yungui, however, was openly and secretly determined to compete with her, and was not about to let her off so easily.

He looked at her with a slight smile and joked, "Looks like I'm still too young, that's why Momo won't greet people."

As soon as he said that, it was obvious to everyone that Fu Yungui cared about being called "uncle," and Momo would have to call him that even if she didn't want to.

"No, even though she's young, the seniority still matters," Huang Sanlin explained with a smile, then glanced at his daughter.

Su He also gave her a look, wondering why her usually well-behaved daughter was behaving so rudely today.

Momo felt helpless, knowing that if she didn't call out today, her parents would be in a terrible situation and she would offend this man.

She caught her breath and, under everyone's gaze, called out to the man, "Uncle."

Seeing her reluctance, Fu Yungui couldn't help but laugh; he, on the other hand, found it quite pleasing to listen.

He then glanced at Anu beside him, who immediately understood and stood up to hand over the prepared red envelope.

"Our last meeting was rushed, and I didn't get to give you anything, so please accept this red envelope."

"How could I possibly trouble you to spend any more money?" Huang Sanlin glanced at the small, thin red envelope in Anu's hand and guessed that it contained a card, so he politely declined on behalf of his daughter.

"Don't be shy, it's what I should do as an elder, it's just a little pocket money."

"The gift is too expensive," Su He said politely.

Fu Yungui smiled and said, "If I refuse again, it will create distance."

Hearing this, Huang Sanlin didn't know what to say, so he gestured for Momo to accept the money, saying, "Why don't you thank your uncle?"

Momo did as she was told, taking the item from Anu's hand and then looking at Fu Yungui with a polite smile, "Thank you, Uncle."

The man smiled without saying a word.

Because of this unexpected incident, after the dinner party started, Momo was arranged to sit near Fu Yungui and serve him at all times.

Su He said that the person had come from afar, was an important guest of her father, and was also an elder of her close friend. As a junior, she certainly had to take good care of the person, otherwise it would be impolite.

Momo had no choice but to obediently agree.

Anyway, she'd done this kind of thing plenty of times in Thailand, so she was quite experienced. It was just pouring drinks, it wouldn't hurt her, so she'd just do it.

The entire dinner went much better and more smoothly than she had imagined. This time, the man didn't make things difficult for her at all. Apart from refilling her wine in time, she sat quietly to the side and listened to their conversation. She couldn't understand much of what they were talking about, but most of it was about business, with a few other things as well.

In short, none of them were of interest to her.

To her surprise, Fu Yungui had the patience to chat with her father and the others about this and that.

Looking at his raised eyebrows and absorbed expression, there was absolutely no trace of pretense.

This man's portrayal of a virtuous gentleman in front of everyone today is truly impressive.

Even Su He was fooled by him, actually believing him to be a reliable and very good person.

She desperately wanted to expose this despicable man's true colors to them, but they would never believe her side of the story.

After all, most people believe in seeing is believing, and the first time they saw Fu Yungui, he was this elegant and charming.

However, what we see with our own eyes is often the most deceptive.

Momo firmly believes that he is not the image he presents today.

He was completely different from the man she had experienced in Thailand; it was almost as if he had a split personality.

How could that man be so kind to her, even giving her a gift upon meeting her?

She squeezed the red envelope again. She had secretly looked inside and there was indeed a card with the PIN written on it. It seemed like there was a lot of money in it.

She really couldn't figure out what the man's series of actions meant.

All evening, Momo sat there, amidst the clinking of glasses and the lively conversation, her gaze fixed on the man, curiously trying to discern the expression on his face.

After observing his generous demeanor and speech for a while, she felt somewhat dazed, as if he really wasn't the same person as the man in Thailand.

Could it be that in just a few months... he has really changed?

But the man she was looking at never turned back in her direction again, not even for the time it takes to glance at him.

On the contrary, Sawa turned around and stared at her with a smile for a few seconds before his gaze fell on Fu Yungui and then turned to look at everything around him.

Momo felt that he was having a hard time suppressing his temper; it wasn't easy for him to hide his talkative personality.

Before long, this seemingly calm and lively situation was suddenly broken by Bian Xi's arrival.

"Sorry I'm late." Bian Xi pushed open the door and came in from outside, a smile full of apology on her face.

In an instant, everyone's eyes in the room were on him.

Fu Yungui also looked up to see the newcomer. He was wearing glasses, which made him look much more like a gentleman, but that would only fool some dim-witted young girls.

As he pondered this, he couldn't help but glance at the person diagonally opposite him.

Before I could even see clearly, I saw that slender figure run into the man's arms at the door.

A cheerful voice rang out, "Brother Bian Xi, you've finally arrived!"

Fu Yungui gritted his teeth as he watched, and the sinister look that had been hidden for so long suddenly appeared on his gentle face, but it was only for a moment before he quickly returned to normal.

Very good, Huang Momo, you've really grown up and become quite capable.

She's so passionate with other men, but when she sees me, she acts like she's seeing a man-eating beast, wishing she could hide in Siberia.

That's really great.

Momo also noticed his glasses; she rarely saw him wear glasses, so it seemed novel to her.

Bian Xi was nearsighted when he was in school, but he never liked wearing glasses. However, now that he is working, he has to wear them every day when he faces heavy documents and computers, especially when he needs to drive at night. For safety reasons, he has to wear them even more.

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting." Bian Xi reached out and affectionately touched her hair, then waved to the people inside.

The silver ring on her smooth, swaying finger seemed almost too conspicuous.

The crew members were already familiar with the relationship between the two. During the filming of the movie, Bian Xi often came to visit the set, bringing them lots of delicious food each time. Over time, everyone developed a good impression of this gentleman.

Seeing the couple's sweet interaction, everyone jokingly remarked, "Wow, our model boyfriend has finally arrived!"

Bian Xi chuckled as he listened; he was already used to them calling him that. Momo, on the other hand, was a little shy in front of so many people and quickly struggled out of Bian Xi's arms.

"This is Momo's boyfriend, who's practically my son-in-law," Huang Sanlin introduced the man to Fu Yungui.
