the driver's side of the car, and raised the partition before starting it.One could hear a pin drop inside the carriage.Fu Yan remained motionless in the corner. The car was driving down the road, st..."Ho Ming retracted his hand. "Leave."

“Azheng,” Li Qin grabbed his sleeve, and when he turned back, she let go and said, “I want to go to the nursing home this weekend.”

"Why suddenly want to go to a nursing home" the man asked her, he stood in the wind, his eyebrows becoming more profound.

She smiled, "You forgot that I named the orphanage. I'm quite connected to those kids. I haven't visited them since I came back so many days ago. It's perfect timing since the weather is nice this weekend."

Hu Mingzheng's deep gaze swept over her face, which was illuminated by a gentle smile. "Well, I'll make arrangements," he said.

......

Ji Lin came back from Beicheng last Friday. Fu Yan had promised the children at the orphanage that she would take Ji Lin to visit them after his competition.

Ji Lin readily agreed. After Fu Yan finished work, he took her to the shopping mall and bought gifts for the children.

"I heard that Grandpa Fu went to the Huo family to look for you" Ji Lin pushed the stroller and walked side by side with Fu Yan in the children's toy store.

He was acquainted with Fu Jing and had met the old master a few times. He was a very easy-going old man, without any airs at all. Ji Lin was young, and all he knew about the old master came from what his parents told him.

The Fu family is unlike the Huo family. The Huo family's ancestors were renowned for generations, and by the time of Old Master Huo, their status and wealth were unparalleled. Their prosperity lasted only three generations, while the Huo family has remained wealthy and influential throughout history. The Fu family had a completely different starting point.

The Fu family's fortune was built from the ground up by Old Master Fu. It is said that Old Master Fu was once a son-in-law of a wealthy family in Guangcheng. After entering the wealthy family, rumors spread everywhere, essentially claiming that he became a "son-in-law" for money and to take shortcuts.

But who knew he didn't take any advantage of his in-laws' good fortune. He went to Nanyang alone, fighting his way out and making a name for himself there. After becoming successful in Nanyang, he returned to Nancheng and steadily strengthened the foundation of the Fu family.

Back then, there was no rich list. One's reputation was built through their achievements. Over time, Old Master Fu's fame rivaled that of Old Master Huo.

The outside world is buzzing with rumors again. When people are comfortable and well-fed, they think about lust. Once a man has money, he's easily forgetful of his roots. He'll soon forget his wife because she hasn't given birth to a child for a long time, and sooner or later he will abandon her.

Who knew they would grow even more in love as a couple, and soon after, they welcomed their first child.

For decades, rumors have swirled around Old Master Fu, but he never paid them any mind. When he was sixty-three years old, someone asked him why he had become a daughter-in-law from the wrong family.

The old man had a blackwood comb, left to him by his deceased wife, in his pocket. He smiled and said, "If I don't let them get a bargain, how can I marry her"

As soon as these words were spoken, all rumors fell apart. It turns out that Old Master Fu was such a person!

Fu Yan took a doll down from the shelf and mumbled in response.

When it came to this matter, her head ached. She hadn't figured out how to explain the relationship between herself and Fu Hanlin to Old Master Fu yet.

This morning, she met Fu Hanlin in the parking lot. Fu Hanlin asked her if he needed to pick her up on the weekend, but she politely declined.

"If you have no chance with Fu Hanlin, and this is just a fake relationship, I advise you to stop it." Ji Lin truly couldn't bear to see Fu Yan deceive the elderly.

Fu Yan also said, "I agreed to go to the Fu family for dinner not because of Fu Hanlin. It was because I felt an instant connection with Grandpa Fu, he reminded me of my grandfather in Guangzhou. I missed him and felt softened, just regretting it now."

"Do you also know regret"

"Despite scolding me, Brother Ji," Fu Yan pretended to listen humbly.

Ji Lin suspected a trick, "What do you want to do"

"I want you to scold me."

“What a fool! Why am I scolding you It's because you were born with such a lovable face. Grandfather Fu likes you, and it’s not entirely because of Fu Hanlin. He doesn't look down on him. Even if Fu Hanlin liked you more, it wouldn't matter.”

Fu Yan listened to Ji Lin praising her the whole time. She said in surprise, "You were praising me"nd away, who knew that Huo Mingzheng also let go at this moment. 。Besides Cao Fang, the elevator also had Wei Zong and three other high-level executives from Fang Xin. They were all watching this sce...
