Chapter 75 Your Adoptive Parents
Fu Yanci had just finished making the sandwich when he saw his girlfriend running downstairs angrily and charging at him like a calf.
"What did you lie to me about?!"
"It's unfair, Miss."
Fu Yanci leaned against the dining table, raised his hand with a smile and brushed away the loose hair on Lin Shuwan's face.
Lin Shuwan put on a stern face and took out the gift box in her hand. "My pendant is with you. Why did you lie to me back then?!"
Oh, so that’s it.
Fu Yanci picked up the pendant with his slender fingers and put it on Lin Shuwan.
"At the beginning, I had a selfish motive. I thought that if I took your pendant, we would still be connected and our fate would not end."
He spoke so affectionately that Lin Shuwan was speechless for a moment, and his anger was extinguished like a deflated ball.
Looking down at the pendant that had returned to him, Lin Shuwan rubbed it cherishingly and complained softly.
"But I really thought it was lost at the time and was sad for a long time."
Fu Yanci bent down to look Lin Shuwan in the eye, cupped her face and gave her a comforting kiss, "I'm sorry, it's my fault. I'll find you a better boyfriend."
"That's not necessary. It's good news that it's not lost."
Fu Yanci stared at the exquisitely shaped Ruyi pendant with his narrow eyes. It was of excellent quality, exquisite workmanship, and made of a very rare material. This pendant would cost at least nine figures.
Who are Lin Shuwan's adoptive parents? Or...
In the past twenty years of her life, was there someone who treated her as a treasure?
His dark eyes were like a deep pool, and his overbearing possessiveness was at work. Fu Yanci's voice became much calmer.
"Who gave this to you? Why do you treasure it so much?"
"It was given to me by my adoptive parents."
Lin Shuwan spoke with pride, a confidence that could only be nurtured by the unconditional love of her parents. She held up the pendant to show Fu Yanci, her eyes sparkling.
"When I was about three or four years old, I fell seriously ill. My adoptive parents went to the temple to pray for healing, and I recovered from my illness. I have been wearing this jade pendant for twenty years now."
The surging danger receded, his eyes became clear again, and Fu Yanci hugged Lin Shuwan with some heartache.
"Your adoptive parents are so good to you, why do you want to come back to the Lin family?"
Lin Shuwan's expression was lonely for a moment, but when he raised his head, he regained his composure and forced a smile at the corners of his mouth.
"My adoptive parents are not from the countryside." Lin Shuwan looked into Fu Yanci's eyes and told the truth, "They are from Yancheng, the Cheng family."
Fu Yanci's eyebrows twitched slightly, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
"Cheng family? No wonder."
The Cheng family in Yancheng can only be that family.
That's the current Discipline Inspection Commission, a figure that often appears in the news.
“The Lin family wants to take me back, so my adoptive parents naturally have no reason to keep me.
And at that time my father—"
Lin Shuwan changed his address and said, "My adoptive father is currently in transition. I'm worried that the Lin family or others will make a fuss about this. I don't want to embarrass them, and I don't want to cause them any trouble, so I came back."
Lin Shuwan was a little depressed. "Besides, I'm a member of the Lin family."
She simply returned to where she belonged.
"You are not anyone but yourself."
Fu Yanci raised his hand and gently scratched her delicate nose, his tone gentle, "You are free to go wherever you want, no one can restrict you, but you came back to Hai City, maybe it was God who made you meet me."
Lin Shuwan laughed out loud, and the haze in his heart dissipated.
"Thank God, then."
"But why were you at the Cheng family in the first place?"
Did the Lin family send him there personally? Then why did they ask for him back twenty years later?
Lin Shuwan shook his head. "I don't know either. No one told me."
Fu Yanci frowned, his eyes were subtle, and he changed the subject in an instant to prevent Lin Shuwan from being immersed in bad memories.
-
After Fu Yanci sent Lin Shuwan to the company, he called his father. The call was picked up just before it automatically hung up. Commander Fu's powerful voice came through the microphone.
"The sun has risen from the west? My son actually called me on his own initiative? Did he do something utterly unscrupulous? Don't worry, I won't let you get away with it. I will personally send you to jail!"
“........”
Fu Yanci wanted to hang up the phone.
"Old Fu, why did the Lin family and the Cheng family have such a quarrel twenty years ago?"
He had heard a lot about the bloody battles in his previous life, the leadership competition, and the people below taking sides. The winner was proud, and the loser was in danger.
Anyone who has experienced that period knows how chaotic and tense the situation was.
The Cheng family had not reached its current status at that time. They also lived in Hai City and had a good relationship with the Lin family.
But since the reshuffle twenty years ago, the Lin family has escaped danger with the help of the Cheng family, but the relationship between the two families is not as good as before.
Because the Cheng family chose the right side, they were promoted to the capital. Over the years, Cheng Jinren has been low-key, down-to-earth and hardworking, and has been highly valued. His career can be described as smooth.
Commander Fu didn't know why his son asked this question, so he didn't think too much about it and answered with full energy:
"I have no idea!"
“........”
He said it with great confidence, as if it was something he was very proud of.
"There were too many things going on back then. I was leading troops in training at the military district, so I didn't have the time to worry about the struggles of those intellectuals."
Commander Fu has a typical military character. He is generous and straightforward, and he keeps his word. He looks down on the complicated and petty tricks in officialdom.
Commander Fu: "Although the Lin family chose the wrong side, they didn't do anything wrong. It was because of the tension with the Zhou family that they were tricked by Old Man Zhou."
Fu Yanci understood. This is how officialdom is. No matter how many dirty things are done behind the scenes or how much one looks down on others, one can still laugh and talk on the surface.
In the officialdom, it is not about grudges, but about interests.
In the past, the Zhou family and the Lin family competed for interests, so they fought to the death. Now, more than 20 years have passed, the situation has changed, the Zhou family can give benefits to the Lin family, and the Lin family will not hold on to the grudge.
In officialdom, there are no fools who don't want benefits. They are all smart people who see benefits and take advantage of the situation.
"Okay, got it, hanging up."
"Why do you ask? How—"
The call was hung up neatly. Commander Fu looked at the phone with a dark expression.
What a naughty kid, he deserves a beating since he was young. He is not as popular as the rookie recruit!
Fu Yanci didn't feel any guilt towards his old father, his mind was full of his girlfriend.
Not many people know what happened in person, so it's hard to find out, but it's probably not that simple.
-
Because Fu Yanci stepped in, the seal on Yulin Company was lifted and everyone can go to work as normal.
The report was also investigated clearly. It turned out that the competitor was trying to use some connections to suppress the startup company, but he didn't expect to hit a wall.
As for why they targeted them, in addition to being wary of the strength of the boss of Yulin Company, the main reason was the upcoming government bidding project.
"The bidding will be on Wednesday. Wanwan, will you take Lao Liu and the others there?" Qiao Xinyuan asked.
"Well, leave it to me."
"Your baby Fu will also be sitting in the judging panel listening to your speech. You must do your best. Come on!"
Lin Shuwan pushed Qiao Xinyuan's head away and said, "Stop being so disgusting."
After all, Dingsheng Group works in the country's military industry, and this government bidding project is linked to them, so Fu Yanci is also the bidder.
She once again stood opposite Fu Yanci to show him her ability and sincerity.
