Chapter 224 Are You Blaming Me?
As soon as Shen Nuo arrived at the Fu family, he was welcomed in by the housekeeper.
“Miss Shen, the old man has been waiting for you for a long time.”
Shen Nuo lifted the hair on his forehead and tucked it behind his ear, chuckled and said, "Sorry, I was delayed by something at the company."
Of course it was impossible, she just checked the situation of the Fu family on the way.
As far as she knew, Fu Chuji joined the Fu Group four years ago.
At that time, Mr. Fu was old, the Fu Group began to decline, and Fu Wenxuan was already useless, so he wanted to train Fu Congzhang and let him join the company.
However, Fu Congzhang perfectly inherited his father's "advantage" of "not much ability but great ambition". He was eager to reform the company as soon as he joined, which made the already declining Fu family even worse.
Later, for some unknown reason, the Fu Group’s capital chain was suddenly interrupted and it fell into an economic crisis. There is no detailed explanation of this matter on the Internet.
Anyway, Fu Chuji later joined the Fu family and has been there ever since.
Shen Nuo followed the butler to the restaurant. Mr. Fu was sitting in the first seat. When he saw her, he hurriedly greeted her:
"Nuo girl is here, come and sit down."
Shen Nuo was a little surprised that she didn't see the other members of the Fu family, but that was exactly what she wanted, so she wouldn't have to see the disgusting faces of the three of them again.
"I came in a hurry and didn't have time to prepare a gift for you."
Mr. Fu waved his hand nonchalantly. He said with a smile, "We'll all be family from now on, so why bother with all this empty formalities?"
Shen Nuo smiled and said nothing more.
The dishes were soon served. She lowered her head and began to eat slowly, but she was wondering why Mr. Fu hadn't started talking about business yet.
It’s a pity that Master Fu didn’t say a word until Shen Nuo couldn’t eat anymore.
Fortunately, after the servants had cleared away the dishes, Mr. Fu finally spoke.
"You and Xiaoji have been together for a while, right?"
Shen Nuo looked calm: “It’s not too long.”
To be honest, they should have been together since they met.
It's just that they didn't take it seriously.
Mr. Fu laughed heartily: "When you came here together before, you pretended not to know each other in front of us. I was really fooled by you two."
Shen Nuo thought about it. At that time, she and Fu Chuji were "breaking up". To be more precise, she was the one who wanted to break up unilaterally, and he still refused to admit it.
So she nodded and said, "I'm not familiar with it."
After she finished speaking, she realized that her answer was too cold, and smiled again:
"Actually, he and I haven't been together for long. There are some things he doesn't want to tell me."
Mr. Fu echoed, "This child has been stubborn since he was young."
"There's nothing I can do if he doesn't want to say it."
Shen Nuo spread her hands helplessly, she deliberately looked at Mr. Fu and complained:
"To be honest, I still have to blame you. If you hadn't taken him back to the Fu family so late, he and I would have been childhood sweethearts."
"You girl..."
Mr. Fu laughed and narrowed his eyes and said, "You are blaming me, right? He told you everything."
"What are you talking about? He didn't tell me anything." Shen Nuo pretended to be stupid.
Old Master Fu sighed, "Stop pretending. Actually, he should call me dad, but I'm doing this for him. You know the social atmosphere. If this matter gets out, it won't be good for either me or him."
Shen Nuo didn't expect that he would say this so easily.
Although he said it was for Fu Chuji's own good, she didn't think so.
"Actually, I don't mean to blame you."
Shen Nuo simply stopped pretending and said straight to the point:
"Since you said it was for his own good, then you should know what kind of person his mother is. If you want to know how he's doing, it's just a matter of snapping your fingers."
"So you never cared about him in those ten years. Was it because you had no idea what kind of life he was living, or was it because you simply didn't care?"
Mr. Fu was stunned at first, then smiled helplessly: "It seems that you really came here to confront me today, cough cough cough..."
He coughed violently, almost choking him.
The housekeeper next to him quickly took out some medicine and gave it to him to inhale, and his symptoms improved slightly.
Shen Nuo looked at his pale face and frowned slightly.
When did she die in that dream?
She seemed to remember it being December, but now it was May.
After the last experience, she no longer believed in dreams, but Mr. Fu did not look well.
"Please take care of yourself. I won't bother you anymore."
She left these words and was about to stand up, but she heard Mr. Fu speak:
"Aren't you asking me why I didn't take him back to the Fu family until he was an adult? I can tell you."
Shen Nuo glanced at him before sitting down again.
She didn't think Mr. Fu would tell her the truth, but she could extract some useful information from his words.
She thought he would give some high-sounding reasons to explain, but he just said indifferently:
"Just as you thought, I had no intention of recognizing him from the beginning."
He was a man who valued his reputation very much. He was already very angry that Lin Yaxiang had given birth to a child without telling him. How could he possibly recognize the child?
He had Lin Yaxiang, who had brought her child to ask for money, driven away, and never let her enter the Fu family's gate again.
After listening to his words, Shen Nuo even felt that he was surprisingly calm and not as angry as he had imagined.
Perhaps it was because it was anticipated.
She asked calmly: "Then why did you take him back after more than ten years?"
Mr. Fu was silent for a moment: "Maybe he is old and cares about his family, but if I could do it again, I probably wouldn't let him come back."
"Do you think Fu Congzhang alone can support the Fu Group?"
Shen Nuo spoke calmly. She was not looking down on Fu Congzhang, she was just telling the truth.
Mr. Fu said indifferently:
"Xiao Zhang is just a bit straightforward, he doesn't have any bad intentions. Although he's not as capable as Xiao Ji, he's not completely useless either."
Shen Nuo felt even more uncomfortable. He must know what kind of fool Fu Congzhang was, and he could even praise him for that.
This heart is really biased.
But she didn't understand why he let Fu Chuji join the Fu family even though he disliked him so much. Was it because he believed in his ability to turn the tide?
I don't think this is the reason.
Mr. Fu seemed to see what she was thinking.
"Are you wondering why I handed the Fu Group over to him even though I didn't like him?"
He laughed strangely, and Shen Nuo instinctively felt that what he said next was probably not what she wanted to hear.
She quickly said, "I don't want to ask. I don't care what the process was like. As long as the result is good, that's all."
She was about to stand up after she finished speaking, but Mr. Fu was determined to make her listen and asked the housekeeper to stop her.
"What do you mean?" Shen Nuo looked unhappy.
