Chapter 115: Attending the Birthday Banquet of Old Lady Xie
Chapter 115: Attending the Birthday Banquet of Old Lady Xie
Fu Ziyan realized that she had brought up her grandfather's sad memories. When her father came back after finishing his work and asked her to go home, she said very considerately that she would not leave tonight and would stay in the old house to accompany her grandfather.
Fu Mingzhang was so happy that he sighed, "Our Ti Ti is still the most considerate."
The descendants of the Fu family who also wanted to stay but were driven away: ...
When his daughter suggested staying at the old house, Fu Qiyuan naturally had no objection. After all, their room in the old house was cleaned every day, and even several sets of clothes were always kept in the cloakroom according to the season.
The next day, Fu Qiyuan was busy with many procedures and miscellaneous matters such as property transfer and had no time to attend the 80th birthday of the old lady of the Xie family. Fu Ziyan volunteered to attend the banquet on behalf of her father.
Of course, one cannot steal the limelight from the host when attending a birthday party. Fu Ziyan did not dress up, but only wore a light pink fishtail skirt, a rose pink diamond necklace, and appeared on the stage holding the arm of Lu Yan, who was wearing a light pink shirt.
Fu Ziyan didn't think of bringing a male companion at first. It was only when she and Lu Yan chatted about this on the phone every night that Lu Yan enthusiastically recommended himself to bring him along.
Lu Yan: I finally got to date Yanyan, I have to show it off to the whole world!
In order to better show their affection, during their phone call that night, Lu Yan specifically asked Fu Ziyan in advance what she would wear the next day, and then carefully selected a shirt of the same color for himself.
Fu Ziyan knew exactly what her boyfriend was thinking, but she didn't refuse. She didn't care whether they were public or not. If Lu Yan wanted to show off, that was fine. A boyfriend needed to be appeased, after all.
Although Fu Ziyan had no intention of attracting attention, her presence with Lu Yan was enough to attract attention.
Handsome men and beautiful women, all of whom are future heirs to billions of dollars in assets.
Many people were curious about the fact that Miss Fu and Mr. Lu attended the banquet so high-profile. Could it be that the Fu and Lu families were planning a marriage alliance?
Before Fu Ziyan could explain herself, her good sister Xi Qingqing, who had arrived earlier, helped to clarify, "Our Yanyan and Lu Yan are just having a relationship for fun. It's wrong to bring in marriage arrangements for young people's affairs. Don't spread rumors and ruin our Yanyan's sweet and innocent love!"
Xi Qingqing was the youngest daughter of a shipping tycoon and a close friend of Fu Ziyan. Naturally, few people would ignore what she said.
Everyone immediately understood Xi Qingqing's, or rather Fu Ziyan's own, attitude. No one mentioned the "marriage" anymore, and they only praised Fu Ziyan and Lu Yan as a perfect match, a talented man and a beautiful woman.
Unlike children who receive gifts on their birthdays, elderly people celebrate their birthdays with gifts. Fu Ziyan and Lu Yan intertwined their fingers and walked straight to Mrs. Xie.
Lu Yan received surprised looks along the way and was delighted.
That’s right, Yanyan’s boyfriend is him, it’s him, it’s him!
Old Mrs. Xie was wearing a dark red longevity Tang suit and a complete set of jade jewelry. Although she had deep wrinkles at the corners of her eyes due to her age, her beauty lay in her bones, not in her skin. Her whole temperament was noble, elegant, reserved and gentle.
Fu Ziyan sighed in her heart, it is true that time never defeats beauty. When she is old and gray, she will probably become a lady like this, ignoring the traces of time and becoming more and more elegant and noble!
Despite her lament, she smiled sweetly in real life and wished the old man a happy birthday. "I wish you endless blessings like the vast ocean, and a life span of over eight thousand years like the Lingchun tree." She also presented him with a Hetian jade ornament of "Nanji Xianweng".
Lu Yan also spoke to wish you a long and happy birthday, "I wish you a long and healthy life." He did not offer any gifts. It was his father who came to the Lu family to offer gifts for the birthday celebration. He was just Yanyan's male companion today.
Seeing Fu Ziyan and Lu Yan coming hand in hand to celebrate her birthday, Mrs. Xie happily called them "golden boy and jade girl", and then assigned her little granddaughter to entertain them.
The granddaughter assigned by Old Lady Xie is called Xie Wanning. She is twenty years old this year, which is barely the same age as Fu Ziyan. But in fact, because of her age, twenty years old is already in a different circle. In addition, Miss Xie has been studying in the UK for many years, so Fu Ziyan is even less familiar with her.
But just because Fu Ziyan is not familiar with it doesn’t mean that others are not familiar with it!
For example, Yu Minhong, and He Simian who entered that circle with the help of Yu Qing and Fu Zimu.
When Fu Ziyan saw these two at the banquet, she felt that life is full of encounters. Who would have thought that she would be able to eat melons at a casual birthday party, hehe~
It can be called the "innate holy body for eating melons"!
The first person to see Fu Ziyan was Yu Minhong. He was a gentleman with a refined demeanor, and his voice was full of smiles, "Cousin Ziyan, so you are here too." Noticing Lu Yan beside Fu Ziyan, he also greeted, "Mr. Lu is here too."
After he finished speaking, he did not forget to introduce Yu Qing dutifully, "This is my cousin Yu Qing from my second uncle's family."
Lu Yan has always been polite and courteous, especially since this is his girlfriend's cousin. He smiled and said, "Mr. Yu, Ms. Yu."
Fu Ziyan and Yu Qing were unfamiliar with each other, so she simply nodded and exchanged greetings before responding to Yu Minhong, "Dad's been busy these past couple of days, so I'm here to attend the birthday banquet on his behalf. Isn't cousin busy, too?"
What she was asking about was that Yu Minhong had just received overseas shares worth two million dollars last night, but he didn't rush overseas to deal with it like those uncles. Instead, he accompanied Yu Qing, who had just returned from the Yu family, to attend the birthday party. It seems that he likes his cousin Yu Qing?
Yu Minhong naturally understood what Fu Ziyan meant. "I'll leave after attending this birthday party. My flight is this afternoon."
Not far away, Fu Zimu, who was busy taking care of his "ambiguous object" He Simian, didn't see Fu Ziyan at first. After Fu Ziyan and Yu Minhong chatted briefly, he noticed her and came over with He Simian to greet her, "Cousin Ziyan."
Fu Ziyan smiled, "Cousin." She noticed the rose diamond bracelet on He Simian's hand out of the corner of her eye and recognized it as part of the new jewelry series launched by Xie's Jewelry Store. The bracelet was exquisitely crafted and inlaid with many pink and white diamonds. It was worth 19.9 Hong Kong dollars.
Although Fu Ziyan's jewelry was worth countless more than this bracelet, she wasn't one to "eat meat and eat meat." According to market prices, a sea view apartment in Repulse Bay was only HK$230,000.
Therefore, the “love-brained” Fu Zimu is really generous!
Fu Ziyan only sighed silently in her heart, and said nothing on the surface. Fu Zimu was in love, so what? She was happy to watch the show, it had nothing to do with her anyway.
I even secretly looked forward to the scenes such as "the rich lady (the second concubine) swore a check for five million to buy the little white flower (He Simian) to leave Mr. Fu" or "the rich young man (Fu Zimu) broke with his family for love and vowed to marry the little white flower".
Hiss, it’s exciting just thinking about it!
If such a scene really happened, she would definitely wear sunglasses and a hat and rush to the scene to watch the show. The broadcast would be half-hearted.

small theater:
Fu Ziyan: Eat melons, eat melons! When does the show start, big brother?
Fu Zimu: ??? Are you polite?
