Chapter 2626 Untitled
Yangyang led Haitong and her family of three upstairs to the elegant room where he had entertained the Fu family grandfather and grandson at noon.
"Auntie, I'll go upstairs and ask Mr. Fu and the others to come down. I've already ordered the food. Please see if there's anything else you'd like to eat, and we can order it."
Hai Tong said, "Just order whatever you want. It's our own hotel, so we can eat anything you order."
The couple, Haitong and his wife, were absolutely satisfied with the food at their hotel.
"Go and invite Chairman Fu and his grandson. Let's have a cup of tea first."
Zhou Yang hummed in agreement and turned to leave.
Not long after, he brought in the Fu family grandfather and grandson.
Chairman Fu is old, so when Hai Tong and her family of three saw them come in, they stood up to greet them.
"Chairman Fu, President Fu."
"Chairman Fu, I think you all know who these three are without me having to introduce them."
Zhou Yang smiled and said, "My aunt and uncle, and their son, my cousin Zhan Muchen, are now the successors of the Zhan Group."
Chairman Fu laughed and said, "I've seen President Zhan and President Hai on TV, but I've never seen young President Zhan."
However, Xiao Zhan looks a lot like Zhan Zong, so it's obvious he's the eldest son of the Zhan family.
After exchanging greetings and pleasantries, everyone sat down.
The hotel manager came over to serve him personally. When Zhou Yang said the food was ready, the manager immediately notified the waiter to serve the food.
Since the Fu family and the Lu family had already signed a contract, they stopped discussing business during the meal and instead had a harmonious and pleasant time.
After dinner, Zhan Yin and his son stayed at the hotel to chat with Chairman Fu, while Zhou Yang and Hai Tong took Fu Wanyu shopping.
Zhou Yang could have stayed at the hotel, but he felt that the Fu family grandfather and grandson were his guests, and it wouldn't be appropriate to leave everything entirely to his aunt. He even felt a little guilty about having his aunt accompany him, so how could he entrust everything to her?
Fu Wanning didn't buy anything; he just strolled around, looked at the sights, and enjoyed the night view of Dongguan.
She and Hai Tong got along very well, and when they returned to the hotel around 10 p.m., Fu Wanning had already affectionately taken Hai Tong's arm.
Zhou Yang followed behind the two women, feeling like he was being followed by a shadow.
His aunt is incredibly charming and gets along with everyone.
Now the matriarch of the Zhan family, she never puts on airs, and everyone says that her aunt is the most down-to-earth wealthy lady.
Zhou Yang was also carrying two bags in his hands.
Those were two sets of clothes, given to Fu Wanning by Haitong. One was a women's suit that Fu Wanning chose herself, and the other was a dress that Haitong helped her choose.
Fu Wanning doesn't like wearing skirts. She has a boyish personality and has dressed in a neutral style for many years, so she's really not used to wearing skirts. When was the last time she wore a skirt?
It must have been when she was four or five years old.
She remembers that after she turned six, she stopped wearing dresses. When she was little, she looked more like a boy. When she went out with her grandfather or mother, people always thought she was a little boy.
When others ask her mother if she is a boy, her mother always smiles with a hint of disappointment and says that she is a girl, and that it would be better if she were a boy.
Fu Wanning knew that her mother hoped she would really be a boy. Her mother always said that her father's family had only one son for generations, and in her generation, she was the only girl. She had no brothers or sisters.
She doesn't have any cousins, only maternal cousins, who are relatives from her mother's side of the family.
My father's relatives are only distant relatives; the closest ones are my father's maternal uncle's family, but we don't keep in touch much now.
She mostly interacted with her mother's relatives, but Fu Wanning disliked her aunts and uncles because they always wanted to get benefits from the Fu family and were thinking of seizing and dividing up the Fu family's assets.
She's 28 and still single, which worries her a lot. Her uncles and aunts are constantly trying to introduce her to potential boyfriends, eager to get her married off.
It's as if marrying her off means she won't be able to inherit the Fu Group, without even considering that she has already taken over the Fu Group.
Even if she gets married, she will still be a member of the Fu family, and everything in the Fu family will still be hers. Her maternal uncle's family can forget about it.
Her grandfather had also told her privately that the people she needed to be most wary of were her mother's relatives, because they were her mother's blood relatives, and her mother was caught in the middle, making it difficult for her to please either side. Moreover, her mother was easily swayed by others.
They are easily manipulated by their siblings.
Fu Wanning was grateful that her grandfather had been teaching her since she could remember. Her grandfather was grateful that her mother did not remarry after her father's early death, nor did she listen to her family's advice to abort her.
I am even more grateful to my mother for raising me after remaining a widow for over twenty years.
But her grandfather knew her mother's temperament. If she was raised by her mother, she might be spoiled. Once she was spoiled, how could she protect the Fu Group after her grandfather passed away?
If she were raised by her mother, she would be closer to her maternal uncle's and aunt's families and listen to them.
If Grandpa passes away, even if she takes over the Fu Group, they will still control her, and the Fu Group will gradually fall into their hands.
Whether she and her mother will survive in the end is still unknown.
Grandpa said that sometimes, the person who hurts you the most is often the person closest to you.
She was told to be wary of all her mother's relatives. Although her grandmother's relatives also had some ambitions, they were a generation apart and not as rampant as her mother's relatives.
Aunt Hai said she would definitely look beautiful in a dress, and suggested she try it on these two days since she's not working and can treat it as a holiday.
Under Aunt Hai's persuasion, Fu Wanning really liked the dress that Aunt Hai had picked out for her, so she finally accepted the dress that Hai Tong had given her.
It was quite late when we got back to the hotel.
Fu Wanning said to Hai Tong, feeling embarrassed, "Aunt Hai, I've taken up one of your evenings."
"Auntie is free in the evening, and I'm very happy that you accompanied me shopping. I should be the one thanking you."
Hai Tong laughed and said, "If you still want to go shopping tomorrow night, remember to call me. I usually don't socialize in the evenings anymore. I'm getting old and don't want to go out for business or drink."
"Aunt Hai is still very young, she's not old at all. When you and President Zhou walk together, you look like siblings."
"My age is there, I'm definitely not young anymore, in front of you I'm an auntie."
"Auntie is very well-maintained. Even my mother is not as well-maintained as you, although my mother is a few years older than Auntie Hai."
Fu Wanning was telling the truth. Her mother didn't have any financial pressure. She went to beauty salons regularly, used the best skincare products, and drank plenty of beauty-enhancing soups. Compared to Hai Tong, she felt that her mother looked ten years older.
In fact, her mother was only two years older than Haitong.
Fu Wanning felt that Hai Tong looked younger because Hai Tong had a happy and fulfilling life, with a beloved husband and two children, unlike her mother who had been widowed at a young age.
For the past twenty-eight years, her mother has also had a difficult life.
