The fact that Mr. Fu made these remarks in public as soon as he returned to China is clearly a way of putting them in their place.
Ever since he realized that his grandson was out of his control, he seems to have other plans.
Judging from the eagerness of the Fu family father and son, they've fallen back into their old habit of trying to seize power.
Fu Nanxiao concealed the coldness in his eyes, blended into the group of guests, and began to converse with ease.
His behavior at this moment was definitely not genuine. Jiang Yilai could sense what secrets this person was hiding in his heart, and she could never figure them out.
As I was lost in thought, I heard a voice of sympathy beside me.
"Jiang Yilai, is your body still able to handle it? Nan Xiao is really something, how could he let you drag your weak body out to participate in the event?"
Gu Nianqiang's sarcastic voice, tinged with schadenfreude, made people feel quite uncomfortable.
Jiang Yilai glared at her. "There's nothing I can do. As Mrs. Fu, I have to follow her lead when attending such an important occasion."
Jiang Yilai knew that she coveted this identity, but she deliberately said it to annoy her.
Unfortunately, this time it didn't work, and instead earned Gu Nianqiang's ridicule.
"That's true, but aren't you being a pathetic Mrs. Fu? If I had Nan Xiao's child, he would be happy, but it just so happens to be in your belly, becoming a burden."
The words she least wanted to hear were turned into a joke by her, and Jiang Yilai felt a pang of pain in her heart, after all, what she was saying was the truth.
But how could you lose to her in terms of momentum? "It's just a pity that no matter how well you speak, you won't have this opportunity."
She really is quick-witted. "By the way, you don't know yet, but Grandpa Fu invited me here today."
Jiang Yilai was taken aback. Even if Old Master Fu was dissatisfied with her, there was no need to specially invite this person over. Was this meant to be a warning to her?
She smiled calmly and said, "Then have fun tonight."
"Of course I'm happy. Grandpa Fu thinks highly of me, unlike some people who insist on getting together even though they're not a good match. They just make a fool of themselves."
"I really hope you can stay happy, let's see if you can have the last laugh."
After Jiang Yilai finished speaking, she gave him a sincere smile, which made Gu Nianqiang grit her teeth and maintain her composure.
What gave her such confidence? She refused to believe that this woman could stand firm under Old Master Fu's strictness, and that the position of Mrs. Fu would eventually be returned to her.
Jiang Yilai ignored her and walked towards Fu Nanxiao. She wanted to leave. In this situation, she could have just made an appearance and left.
Fu Nanxiao was still chatting with the guests when a pair of wrinkled hands landed on his shoulders, and a loving voice rang in his ears.
“Nan Xiao, I think Miss Gu and you look more like a married couple.”
This act of kindness is absolutely fake. Old Master Fu deliberately used this kind of kind tone to avoid making him angry.
When Gu Nianqiang appeared in the banquet hall, he knew exactly what was going on.
Grandpa, who always puts the company's interests first, must have been eyeing the Gu family's vast business empire, since it's currently the only family that can rival the Fu family in terms of social standing.
As soon as he returned, he started finding fault with Jiang Yilai and expressed his dissatisfaction. Today, he specially invited Gu Nianqiang over and did not shy away from talking about this topic with outsiders. His intentions are obvious.
"Grandpa, today is your welcome party, I don't want to talk about anything else."
"It's a pity that you two were destined to be apart back then, otherwise I would already be holding my chubby great-grandson."
Their conversation was not loud, but every word was directed at Jiang Yilai. Thinking of how they disliked the child in her womb, what belief did she have left to hold on to?
