Ling Jiao was grateful, but still did not agree.
"I have other things to do. I'll visit the Fu family another time when I have the chance."
Gu Weiwei put down her chopsticks and said seriously.
"This is my personal invitation to you, not Fu Shiqin's. If you don't think it's appropriate for him to be at home, then let him go out."
Ling Jiao: "..."
“Sister-in-law, you’re being a bit too harsh,” Fu Shiqin protested.
Ling Jiao gave a dry laugh, but she still had reservations and was secretly thinking about how to refuse appropriately.
Seeing that she still refused to agree, Gu Weiwei turned to look at Fu Hanzheng sitting next to her.
"Honey, think of something. If she rejects me again, I'll lose face."
Fu Hanzheng looked at her, then at Ling Jiao, and then said calmly.
"I'll invite her to my home tomorrow."
Fu Shiqin tilted his head slightly and whispered to Ling Jiao.
“I’m afraid my brother will send someone to arrest you and bring you home tomorrow. He never disappoints my sister-in-law.”
"..." Ling Jiao frowned as she looked at Mrs. Fu, who was smiling gently and charmingly, and said helplessly, "I... I'll go back and pack my things, and I'll go over tomorrow."
Fu Hanzheng promised Mrs. Fu that he would invite her over, and he would probably bring her to the Fu family tomorrow no matter how much she refused.
"What do you mean tomorrow? Just come with us after we eat." Gu Weiwei demanded forcefully, a rare occurrence for her.
"I...I'll go home and change my clothes," Ling Jiao offered as an excuse.
She's already accepted the invitation, so why is she in such a hurry to go to the Fu family with them today?
She turned her head to look at Fu Shiqin and winked at him, hoping he could help persuade his sister-in-law.
Fu Shiqin shrugged helplessly. "In our family, my sister-in-law is the most powerful, and I can't afford to offend her."
He was more than happy for her to spend the New Year at the Fu family's house, so why would he help her refuse his sister-in-law?
Moreover, given what happened to her today, he was worried about leaving her alone at home.
Presumably, my sister-in-law also learned the news from Lei Ning, which is why she brought it up when she ran into him.
"I need to go back and get some things. I'll definitely go early tomorrow, okay?" Ling Jiao said.
Gu Weiwei thought for a moment, then looked at Fu Shiqin and said.
"Take him to get his things in a little while, and then go straight to the Fu family's old residence."
“Mrs. Fu…” Ling Jiao didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
Without giving her any chance to refuse, Gu Weiwei had already made the decision on her own.
So, after the four of them had a pleasant dinner, Fu Shiqin carried out his sister-in-law's order and personally escorted Ling Jiao back to her residence to retrieve her belongings.
Ling Jiao casually mentioned that she had moved, and Fu Shiqin drove to the new address she mentioned without asking any further questions.
Why does your sister-in-law insist that I go over there?
"I guess he doesn't want to lose face by being rejected by you all the time," Fu Shiqin said with a smile.
The two parked their car, took the elevator upstairs, and as soon as they stepped out of the elevator, they saw a middle-aged woman squatting at the entrance of the apartment building.
Ling Jiao saw the other person's face clearly and stopped in her tracks.
"Let's go, I'm not taking anything."
The person guarding the door of her residence was none other than Sun Xiulan, who had come looking for her based on the address.
Before the two could turn back to the elevator and let go, Sun Xiulan had already run over, sobbing with tears streaming down her face.
"Jiaojiao, I'm sorry, it's all my fault."
“I didn’t want to acknowledge you. I just couldn’t stop worrying about you, so I wanted to see you, take care of you as much as I could, and make up for all the years I’ve neglected you.”
...
Ling Jiao remained indifferent, avoiding the outstretched hand, not wanting to be touched.
