Chapter 120: Disdain for Family Background
"Of course, even Mom Yan said that I inherited the good looks of my parents, and I'm even prettier than Mom when she was young." Yan Nuo said with a smile, looking so narcissistic.
Looking at someone's cocky look, Fu Shangbei smiled and shook his head: "You, I hope you can still be so calm when you meet my grandfather later."
"You don't have confidence in me, do you? Since I've agreed to meet you, I won't be timid. President Fu, although my family is humble, I've lived in dire straits since I was a child." Yan Nuo raised an eyebrow, without a trace of fear on his face. "It's just that your grandfather might look down on a family like mine. After all, your parents' previous marriage proposals were all to daughters of wealthy families like Nian Yuxue."
"My parents proposed marriage to the Nian family because my mom and Madam Nian have a good relationship, and Nian Yuxue grew up under their noses, so they know her very well." Fu Shangbei explained gently, "After my parents knew about your existence, didn't they accept you faster than anyone else? They were also afraid that you wouldn't want to be their daughter-in-law."
"I hope your grandfather is as approachable as your parents." Yan Nuo murmured.
Fu Shangbei raised the corners of his lips slightly, held her hand, and said seriously: "In short, remember, no matter what happens, I will stand by you, you don't have to be afraid."
"Yeah." Yan Nuo's heart trembled slightly at these words, and he felt more powerful in his heart.
Fu Family Mansion, Living Room
When Fu Zhenhuan saw Fu Shangbei walking in with a young woman he had never seen before, his weathered face became very ugly.
Even when Fu Shangbei walked up to him and greeted him as "Grandpa," he couldn't help but lose his temper and sarcastically said, "You still think I'm your grandpa? You didn't even ask for my opinion on such a big thing as marriage."
"I wanted to tell you, but you happened to be in poor health because of your second uncle's family, so I didn't tell you."
Fu Zhenhuan's mouth twitched. He was indeed sad during this period because of Zhengpeng's miserable life abroad. Therefore, when Fu Shangbei came back to the old house, he avoided him out of spite. Who knew that the consequences would be so serious? His eldest grandson actually solved his lifelong event quietly.
He was too embarrassed to bring this up again, so he could only change the subject. He looked at Yan Nuo with dignity and a hint of disdain.
He looked at Yan Nuo, feeling quite dissatisfied. This girl was too young and didn't look like a good wife or mother. Her profile showed that she had just graduated from college this year. Of course, Fu Zhenhuan didn't completely trust the information his second grandson had given him. As usual, he asked Yan Nuo, "How old are you this year? What do you do? What does your family do? Where are your parents?"
Without even saying hello, you're already checking my household registration? Yan Nuo pursed his lips and said nothing.
"I'm asking you a question." Fu Zhenhuan was a little annoyed. How could this girl not even have the most basic manners?
Yan Nuo raised his head and looked at Fu Zhenhuan: "Mr. Fu, since you invited someone back to talk, shouldn't you ask them to sit down before talking about anything else?"
Fu Zhenhuan was immediately choked. He glanced at his eldest grandson who stood beside Yan Nuo without any reaction. He looked like he had been punched and was still holding back. After a few breaths, he said in a cold voice: "Sit down!"
"Oh!" Yan Nuo curled her lips in satisfaction, and Fu Shangbei put his arm around her waist and sat down together.
Fu Zhenhuan looked at his eldest grandson's actions, his eyes flashing slightly.
After sitting down, Yan Nuo answered the old man's question on his own: "I'm 20 years old, majoring in jewelry design. My family runs a company, and my parents passed away when I was very young."
"So, now that you have no parents, who are your family members? Why didn't they come to visit you after you got married?"
"There are other people in the family, but I don't have a good relationship with them, and they don't care whether I get married or not."
"So, I'm afraid you won't get much property from your family." Fu Zhenhuan looked at Yan Nuo: "If one of your parents were still alive, you might be able to help Ah Bei in the future."
"Do I have to help him to become his wife? A capable man can get what he wants on his own. What's the point of relying on his wife?"
Fu Zhenhuan was shocked by her words and stared at her with heavy eyes. Yan Nuo was unwilling to be left behind and forced herself to withstand the dominance of the superior and looked back without fear.
After a moment, Fu Zhenhuan was the first to retract his gaze and smiled coldly: "You don't understand, Abei manages such a big company. If his partner can help him share the burden, he will be much more relaxed."
"With his current status, position, and wealth, it's already easier for him than many others. I've seen how efficient he is at work, and there's no need to worry about him being overwhelmed. Furthermore, the bolder the person, the more productive the land. He's already excellent at doing his best within his capabilities."
"Hmph, you are really good at talking and you speak in a lot of different ways, but it's useless. You can't help the Fu family, you can't support the Fu family. With someone like you, how can you lead the Fu family to continue in the future?" Fu Zhenhuan's tone became heavier, and his words were a complete denial of Yan Nuo.
"When your grandson married me, he never asked me to help you lead the Fu family. If you had said that earlier, I wouldn't have married you." Yan Nuo gritted his teeth and then turned to look at Fu Shangbei: "Your grandfather and your parents are from completely different worlds. He looks down on my family background, but unfortunately, my family background was determined when I was born. I don't want to stay here anymore. You can deal with it yourself."
After saying that, Yan Nuo stood up and was about to leave. Fu Shangbei raised his hand and put his arm around her waist. His voice was calm and clear: "Don't be angry, dear. Be careful of miscarriage."
Fu Zhenhuan's ears twitched, and his body straightened a little: "What? Fetal qi?"
