Chapter 86: Each with His Own Thoughts
Fu Yan's eyes lit up and she said in surprise, "Thank you, sister-in-law!"
Fu Jie stood aside with an indifferent expression. He just nodded as a greeting.
The gifts given to my second and third uncles were precious tea.
The old man looked at this scene with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Okay, stop standing there and eat first."
At the dinner table, everyone seems to be having a good time, but secretly there are hidden plots.
Xia Meifeng asked casually, "Su Qian, I heard that you and your grandmother depend on each other for survival? You're truly blessed to be able to marry into the Fu family."
Before Su Qian could speak, Fu Xiao calmly replied, "Second Aunt, you're joking. Su Qian is gentle and kind, and she graduated from a prestigious university with outstanding abilities. It's my blessing to marry her."
Xia Meifeng was choked and smiled awkwardly.
"You have to work harder and try to give birth to a big fat baby next year to expand the Fu family." Su Manli said with a smile.
Su Qian lowered her head pretending to be shy.
It turns out that life in a wealthy family is not easy.
Seeing this, Fu Jingfeng changed the subject: "Ah Xiao, I heard that the group has a new project recently. How is the progress?"
Fu Xiao raised his eyes, with a half-smile in his eyes: "Third Uncle is well-informed, but the details of the project should be discussed with the board of directors after the new year."
Fu Jingfeng's face stiffened slightly, but he quickly concealed it.
Damn it, Fu Jingfeng wanted to take advantage of the new project to be transferred back to the headquarters.
I've been working at the branch office, but there's been no profit at all.
Fu Jingfeng was very dissatisfied with being suppressed by his nephew all the time.
This time when he came back for the New Year, Fu Jingfeng wanted to take the opportunity to negotiate with the old man to see if he could come back. He also had to make plans for himself.
After dinner, everyone went back to their rooms.
We are all spending the night at the old house.
This has become a tradition, and the family should be reunited during the Chinese New Year.
So everyone stayed at the old house and went back to their respective homes after the third day of the Lunar New Year.
The old house is very big, with pavilions, towers and many rooms, and everyone has their own room.
After the reunion dinner, everyone dispersed and went to find their own activities.
New Year's Eve is basically the same every year. From north to south, there are lights and decorations everywhere, and everyone is happily welcoming the new year.
Su Qian's mood this year is very different.
In the past, she usually celebrated the New Year with her grandmother, and Zhou Yanyan would return to the Zhou family for a reunion.
He would basically not take Su Qian back, because the family was very large and Zhou Yanyan could not stand the sarcasm and ridicule of those relatives.
So Su Qian’s New Year’s Eve has been very simple over the years. After dinner, she would watch the Spring Festival Gala with her grandmother.
But this year she got married and lived with Fu Xiao.
Fu Xiao took her for a walk in the courtyard.
The second and third rooms also returned to their rooms.
In the room, Fu Hongtian said to Xia Meifeng with a serious face, "Be careful with your words in the future, especially to Su Qian. Don't you see that Fu Xiao values her very much?"
Xia Meifeng curled her lips and said disapprovingly, "She's just an insignificant girl. Is she worth your anxiety? I think Ah Xiao is just looking for something new."
I don’t see anything special. Wasn’t Fu Xiao and Song Ning getting along well before?
What is the situation now?
He actually married Su Qian?
Fu Hongtian frowned and warned in a low voice, "What do you know! The old man is obviously very satisfied with Su Qian. You saw it at the dinner table today. Besides..."
He paused, a gleam in his eyes, "Fu Xiao now holds the power of the group, we can't afford to offend him."
Xia Meifeng snorted lightly, took off her earrings and threw them on the dressing table: "I just can't stand her pretentious look. You didn't see that she acted like the mistress of this house."
"Enough!" Fu Hongtian slammed the table. "Do you think it's still the same now? You know Fu Xiao's methods. How did the people from Third Brother's group get kicked out last time? Have you forgotten?"
When this matter was mentioned, Xia Meifeng's face changed slightly.
Last year, Fu Jingfeng's confidant who was placed in the Finance Department was publicly fired by Fu Xiao because of an accounting problem, and even the old man couldn't save him.
"Then...then what do you say we should do?" Xia Meifeng's momentum weakened.
Fu Hongtian narrowed his eyes and lowered his voice even more: "The most important thing now is to help Ajie gain a foothold in the group. Starting tomorrow, you should be polite to Su Qian and try to get close to her. I heard that Fu Xiao dotes on her very much. Maybe you can get through her..."
At the same time, the scene in the third room was completely different.
Fu Jingfeng ripped off his tie in annoyance and paced back and forth in the room.
Su Manli brought over a cup of tea and gently advised, "Don't be anxious, take your time. Hasn't the project started yet?"
"Take your time?" Fu Jingfeng sneered, "If you go any slower, we won't have a place in the group! Fu Xiao is getting more and more arrogant. You saw it today. He even refused to reveal the details of the project."
A trace of calculation flashed in Su Manli's eyes: "I think the breakthrough may lie with that Su Qian."
Su Manli is a woman, so she can see things more clearly.
Fu Xiao treats Su Qian very differently.
When they were eating just now, his eyes were always on Su Qian, and he kept picking up food for Su Qian, which was very considerate.
Fu Xiao used to be cold and indifferent, with a sullen face every day. How could this be possible?
Fu Jingfeng stopped and looked at his wife in confusion.
"I observed this during dinner today." Su Manli lowered her voice, "Fu Xiao treats her very differently, and since she just joined the Fu family, she definitely needs allies... We can start with her."
Fu Jingfeng nodded thoughtfully, with a sinister smile on his lips: "You are right, isn't Yanyan about the same age as her? Let Yanyan walk around with her more..."
At this time, in the courtyard.
Fu Xiao held Su Qian's hand and strolled under the corridor hung with red lanterns.
The fireworks that occasionally bloomed in the night sky illuminated Su Qian's delicate profile.
"What are you thinking about? So engrossed?" Fu Xiao asked softly.
Su Qian shook her head and said with a smile, "I was thinking this New Year's Eve is very special."
Fu Xiao stopped and held her face in his hands. His deep eyes were particularly gentle in the moonlight: "Mrs. Fu, remember, with me here, every New Year's Eve of yours will be special."
Suddenly Fu Xiao looked at his watch and counted, "Five, four, three, two, one..."
He leaned over and placed a kiss on Su Qian's forehead. "Happy New Year, Mrs. Fu."
The voice is pleasant and magnetic.
"Happy New Year! Mr. Fu!" Su Qian responded gently.
The two hugged each other, and above their heads, the colorful fireworks were like a dream, more gorgeous and beautiful than in previous years.
Afterwards, Fu Xiao's deep voice rang in Su Qian's ears, "My New Year's wish is that Mrs. Fu will be safe and sound, have good health, everything goes well, and her career will flourish."
At this moment, the two were still hugging each other. Su Qian unconsciously hugged Fu Xiao's neck, and their bodies were tightly pressed together.
Su Qian was moved by his New Year's wishes because his wishes were all about himself.
So Su Qian also said softly, "I hope that from now on, Mr. Fu will have everything go smoothly, be free from disasters and troubles, be in good health, and achieve even greater success in his career."
At this moment, it seemed that they only had each other in their eyes.
