said solemnly: "Listen, nothing is more important than life. At any time, your top priority must be to protect your own safety, understood"Mu Xing whispered, "But Uncle Xiao's gift is very important...Mu Xing understood jade. She knew how precious this jade bracelet was. She originally wanted to refuse, but when she heard her young uncle's thank you, it was clear he didn't mean to refuse. She had no choice but to follow suit and say thank you.
Old Mrs. Fu smiled and handed a thick red envelope to Mu Xing, "This is for our little Mu Xing to buy some delicious food."
Mu Xing's eyes lit up instantly, what a big red envelope!
During Chinese New Year every year, Master would also give her red envelopes, but they were always empty. Master said that the sense of ceremony was enough.
This was still her first time seeing a wealthy red envelope, the money inside was almost bursting the red envelope bag.
Can she receive this
Mu Xing turned her head to look at the man beside her, receiving his nod before she took both hands and smiled sweetly: "Thank you, Grandma!"
"Good girl/boy."
Grandma Fu stood up with her cane, holding onto Mu Xing's hand. "Come on, let's go eat."
Members of the upper class are all shrewd individuals. They clearly saw that Madam Fu's actions just now were a clear sign that she had accepted this granddaughter-in-law. Coupled with Mr. Fu's affection for this girl, it is highly likely that she will be the mistress of the Fu family in the future.
Suddenly, all contempt for Mu Xing vanished, leaving only awe.
Of course, what they fear now is the Fu family behind the girl, that high and mighty Fu Ye who controls the lifeline of the imperial capital.
And those socialites who desperately wanted to climb onto Fu Lingxiao's ladder, their hearts filled with jealousy and resentment, looked at Mu Xing with eyes that wished they could devour her alive.
Such a vulgar girl, how could she be worthy of having her Young Master Fu!
Give Fuye back!
-After the banquet.
Guests left one by one.
Fu Jingmo and Fu Ci also bid farewell to Madam Fu, Madam Fu sent them to the door, very reluctant, "Since you two have come back, stay for a few more days."
"No, Grandma."
Fu Ci's refusal was concise and to the point.
Fu Jingmo then smiled faintly, "The company has been quite busy recently. When things settle down after a while, I'll definitely come back and stay for a while, and spend some quality time with you."
Lady Fu didn't try to persuade them any further. "Since you're busy, Grandma won't keep you. Give Grandma a call when you get home."
"Okay, Grandma, we're leaving."
The two of them got into the car. Fu Jingmo glanced at the girl from the rearview mirror, a slight smile curving his lips as he started the car.
"Grandma Fu, I'll take my leave now."
Lan Xuan bid farewell to Old Madam Fu, smiled at Mu Xing, and then looked at Fu Lingxiao: "Xiao Xiao, I'm leaving."
"I'll drive you to your car."
The usually cold man suddenly took the initiative to offer her a ride. Lan Xuan was overjoyed and shyly lowered her head, quickly nodding in agreement, afraid he would change his mind.
Looking at the two people walking side by side, Lady Fu's face suddenly showed a trace of worry. This girl Lan Xuan still hasn't given up on her grandson, has she
When this girl was sixteen, she confessed her love to her grandson in front of her and asked her to make the decision for them to get engaged first, and then marry when they were older. When her grandson rejected her, she actually committed suicide directly, which scared her a lot.
Later, the girl went abroad on her own and stayed there for ten years. She thought she had completely let go of her feelings, until last time when they came over, she immediately saw that the girl still hadn't given up on her grandson.
I thought that after seeing her and her grandson's love for Xiaomuxing today, she would finally give up. Unexpectedly, she still refused to let go.
This girl is extremely extreme in her personality and could do something drastic.
She needs to find an opportunity to talk to her grandson about this.
Lan Xuan regretted not parking farther away. She hadn't even walked for a while when she arrived.
"Lánxuān."
Two people stood before the car, the man's deep and magnetic voice softly calling her name.
Lan Xuan's heart skipped a beat, her face flushed with shyness. She slowly raised her head to look at the man, but unexpectedly met his eyes, which were as cold and sharp as an icy winter lake.
She was startled and her heart skipped a beat, "Xiao Xiao, what's wrong with you"
"That man was sent by you."
Cold words slowly slipped from the man's thin lips.
Lansuan's face paled instantly at the firm tone, her heart pounding in her chest. How did he know!
She nervously clutched her skirt hem, then suddenly calmed down after a moment.
He didn't expose her in public, which showed that he still felt guilty about what he had done to her.
She immediately put on a pitiful expression, looking at Fu Lingxiao with pleading eyes. "A-Xiao, that person was brought by me, but I really didn't instruct him. Please believe me, okay"
"Put away your act, it doesn't work on me."
Fu Lingxiao glared at her with icy eyes, his tone carrying a warning, "This is the last time I'm reminding you, don't touch the people around me, especially Grandma and Mu Xing. Otherwise, even if I have a thousand regrets, it won't save your life!"
Having said that, he strode away with long legs.
Looking at the man's cold and ruthless back, Lan Xuan could only feel that her heart was completely trampled in the mud. All of this was because of that Qiao Mu Xing!
My unwillingness and anger burned like raging flames in my heart.
Qiao Mushen, wait for me!
-Fu Lingxiao strode back to the old house gate, holding Mu Xing's hand and walking with Old Madam Fu, but Tang Tianhong blocked their way in the corridor.
"Grandma, you should go back and rest first. I and Mu Xing will be there later."
Elder Mrs. Fu was escorted out by a servant first.
Fu Lingxiao coldly glared at Tang Tianhong, "Mr. Tang, is there something"
After the banquet ended, Tang Tianhong did not leave. He stayed to wait for Fu Lingxiao. "To be honest with you, I'm here to ask Mr. Fu for a favor for my youngest daughter. She's young and doesn't know any better. She offended Mr. Fu, so please, Mr. Fu, be magnanimous and don't hold it against a child."
Fu Lingxiao's expression was indifferent, "Eighteen years old, still young"
Tang Tianhong was choked and after a few seconds he spoke again, "Mr. Fu, Yingying has been taught a lesson and sincerely regretted it. I hope Mr. Fu can give her another chance."
"She can still breathe, that's a chance I've given her. If Mr. Tang is unsatisfied with her being able to breathe, I can satisfy you."
The tone was calm and collected, yet every word carried a sharp edge.
Facing Fu Lingxiao's icy eyes, Tang Tianhong didn't dare to say another word of pleading. He just said, "I won't disturb Mr. Fu," and quickly left.
Looking at Tang Tianhong's back, Mu Xing said to the man, "Uncle, Tang Yinyin's older sister also came to see me a few days ago. She asked me to plead with you on Tang Yinyin's behalf, and she even gave me a box of something."
Fu Lingxiao lowered his eyes to look at her, "So you want to plead for her"
Mu Xing smiled and shook her head, "No, I know my uncle considers everything before making a decision. When I refused on the spot, she shoved the thing into my hands and ran away. I don't have her contact information, so I wanted to ask my uncle to return it to her. Knowing that her father would come, I should have brought it with me, so my uncle wouldn't have to make an extra trip."
The little thing is too obedient.
Fu Lingxiao leaned down and gently pecked her pink lips, "It's okay, go home and give me the things, I'll return them for you."e softness of those hands. He nervously clenched his palm and turned his face away.Mu Xing checked him over and said, "The fracture wasn't repositioned and fixed during treatment, so it healed crooked...
