"La la la la~"
Jack and Bai Qianzhou put all the fish from the fish box together, humming a little tune.
Hey, God is my witness, this is the happiest day he's had since returning from China.
As Bai Qianzhou carried the fish box into the kitchen, Song Zhirong pulled Jack aside.
"I'm asking you, what exactly are these two Chinese people doing here?"
Jack smoothed out the wrinkles on his sleeve that Song Zhirong had been grabbing with some disdain.
Then, with a matter-of-fact expression, he said, "What do you mean, 'for what'? Of course, it's to visit Aunt and me!"
Song Zhirong couldn't help but roll his eyes at him. This kid is already twenty years old, how can he still be so innocent?
After his trip to China, he seemed to have been brainwashed. He should never have agreed to let Jack take Fu Fengying to China.
Unfortunately, the Song family was embroiled in an internal power struggle over the family fortune at that time. In order to prevent Fu Fengying from being harmed by other members of the Song family, Song Zhirong had no choice but to ask Jack to take her away.
When they returned, Song Zhirong had successfully obtained most of the Song family's assets and also kept the villa in the small town.
Now, out of nowhere, a niece has appeared. Heaven knows he genuinely thought Jack and Fu Fengying were joking when they told him they had found their family.
Seeing that Song Zhirong did not believe him, Jack was a little unhappy. If he had to say who he valued most now, besides Fu Fengying, who raised him, it would be Fu Wan, whom he regarded as his older sister.
He was an adopted son that Fu Fengying brought back from the orphanage. There were also girls in the Song family who were older than him, but they often discriminated against him because of his unknown origins.
Fu Fengying's biological son, Song Zhirong, was favored and raised by his father and grandfather from a young age. He was cold-hearted and could not get along with Fu Fengying.
Jack used to be a little afraid of Song Zhirong, but now that he has entered the workforce, he is not so afraid anymore.
He mustered his courage to argue for Fu Wan: "A Wan is a good person; she's just an ordinary Chinese fisherwoman."
My aunt was very happy being with them.
"Don't always pin your schemes on others; not everyone is interested in your money."
After saying that, he pursed his lips, picked up the things in his hand, and went to the kitchen.
After hearing his words, Song Zhirong couldn't help but sneer on the spot.
Fishermen? Only they would believe that.
He even had a particularly cynical thought: maybe Fu Wan and the others bought their fish at the dock.
Not interested in his money? Haha, there's no one in this world who isn't interested in money. For relatives like Fu Wan, who are so distant, to suddenly travel all this way must mean they have some ulterior motive.
In Mandarin, he believed that Fu Wan was just there to freeload.
Hmph, he even went out on his bicycle!
Song Zhirong walked around his bicycle, and only stood up with satisfaction when he saw that the bicycle was completely undamaged.
Just as he was about to push the car to the garage and lock it, a bright beam of light shone on him.
Song Zhirong instinctively reached out to block the view, and only then did he realize that a car had come from afar and stopped in front of his yard.
"Hey, Song!"
As soon as the car's headlights were turned off, Song Zhirong heard someone calling him.
He looked up at the sound and immediately put on a polite smile.
"Good evening, Mr. William!"
"Good evening. I was wondering whose guest that lady from China was. Turns out she's from your family."
"You have someone in your family who's such a skilled fisherman, how come you've never mentioned it?"
William got out of the car, muttering complaints about Song Zhirong.
Song Zhirong looked surprised. He knew William; to be precise, he had just met him this morning.
His company has a collaboration with a business owned by William. When he went to meet William this morning, the old man arrogantly left after only a few words.
He's so friendly now, it's like he's become a different person.
Song Zhirong was also a seasoned veteran in the workplace. Upon hearing what William said, he quickly opened the small gate in the yard.
“Oh, Mr. William, are you talking about my cousin who came from China?”
She's definitely a skilled fisherwoman. How did you two meet?
William chuckled and turned to nod at the driver standing to the side.
The driver understood and immediately carried the fish off the vehicle.
The lighting in the yard was poor, and Song Zhirong hadn't been able to see clearly that there was such a large tuna lying in the back of the pickup truck they were driving.
When William's driver and bodyguard carried the fish down, Song Zhirong's pupils dilated in shock, and he stood there dumbfounded.
What... what's going on?
Before Song Zhirong could even ask, Fu Wan and Bai Qianzhou came out of the kitchen carrying two bowls of noodles.
William smiled as soon as he saw Fu Wan, and immediately took the pipe out of his mouth.
"Hey, beautiful lady, do you remember me?"
Fu Wan looked over upon hearing the sound, and she could understand those few English sentences.
How could I not remember that my fish was still in his hands!
"Wan, give me the noodles, I'll put them on the table."
Upon hearing this, Fu Wan handed the noodles in her hand to Jack, and then went over to greet William.
"Hey Mr. William, good evening!"
"Good evening, I've brought your tuna. Look, it's right here!"
Fu Wan glanced at it and recognized the fish she had caught. She figured she hadn't misjudged it; William was a man of integrity and hadn't run away with the tuna.
"Cousin Song... please go check where this fish is?"
We can't keep having their driver and bodyguards hold it up forever.
Song Zhirong's brain, which had been frozen in place, instantly cleared up after Fu Wan waved her hand in front of him.
He immediately waved to the driver and bodyguard next to him.
"The kitchen is this way, thank you for your help."
If there are any questions, we should wait until the other person leaves before asking. Could it be that my cousin, who's been so bold all day, bought such a big fish?
Good heavens, how much does this cost?
Song Zhirong found the idea increasingly outrageous, just as Jack ran into the kitchen to help.
"Tell me the truth, where did this fish come from?"
"Of course we caught it, no, we caught it by sly fishing."
Song Zhirong stared in shock. How could this be? Many of his clients also enjoyed fishing, and he had heard them talk about how difficult it was to catch tuna.
Fu Fengying, who was standing next to Song Zhirong, slammed down the spoon in her hand and glared at him.
"Heh, Zhirong, do you remember what I told you, never underestimate anyone?"
Your biggest flaw is that you often view your fellow countrymen, and even your relatives, with a petty and narrow-minded perspective!
Song Zhirong blushed a little at his mother's words. Luckily, the two drivers and bodyguards couldn't understand Chinese, otherwise he would have been extremely embarrassed.
Meanwhile, with Bai Qianzhou as their translator, Fu Wan actually got along quite well with William.
The tuna had been delivered, and as old William was leaving, he couldn't help but ask about his hopes.
"Fu, are you going fishing again tomorrow?"
Fu Wan shook her head. She was leaving for Florida the day after tomorrow, so she naturally had to spend time with Fu Fengying tomorrow.
