Chapter 367 Something happened at Uncle's house again

After eating, chatting, and playing cards in the restaurant, Fu Ziyan still felt it was not enough, so she dragged a few people to the private room of a bar in Lan Kwai Fong to play.

By the time we were done having fun, it was almost midnight.

They each brought an assistant bodyguard, so they didn't have to worry about sending the "drunkard" home.

Fu Ziyan herself was a little dazed from drinking. The bodyguard whispered to her twice where she was going. She rubbed her brows and hesitated for a moment before saying the name of a nearby place: "Jiashang Garden."

Jiashang Garden is a large, luxurious condominium developed by Fu's Real Estate in the past two years. It's located near the Central Financial District, with units ranging from 1,000 to 2,000 square feet. Because it's near her office building, her father reserved a 2,000-square-foot unit for her during the development process, so she can use it for a relaxing break.

In fact, this apartment is not only close to the commercial building where I work, but also not far from Lan Kwai Fong.

For the past two days, she and her father stayed in Shek O to accompany her grandfather. It was getting late, and if they drove back to Shek O, it would take a long time. If her father happened to see her drunk, she was afraid that she would have a hard time in the next few days.

In theory, adults can drink alcohol, but sometimes parents are unreasonable fascists who won't discuss theory with you.

Fu Ziyan felt that it would be better to avoid annoying her father if she could keep the matter secret.

She is a filial child!

Fu Ziyan doesn't come here often. She is busy with work most of the time and will just stay in the office lounge for a nap.

However, here, Ah Hong would bring a cleaning maid to clean the house every week, change the bed sheets, and replace the items she has recently preferred, such as clothes, fragrances, skin care products, etc.

With familiar bath shampoo, bedding, and sleep aromatherapy, Fu Ziyan naturally wouldn't have insomnia due to bed-recruitment. What's more, she was in a dazed and slightly tipsy state, so she fell asleep the moment she lay down.

The moon sets and the sun rises. A few rays of light quietly shine through the small gap between the curtains that are not completely closed, and the sound of a few birds chirping can be heard from the trees in the community.

When Fu Ziyan woke up again, it was already past nine in the morning.

As usual, I open the Chengzhen APP to sign in and wake myself up.

After washing up and going out, she found that the dining table outside the bedroom was already filled with breakfast, including her usual milk, her favorite shrimp dumplings, hot dog buns, strawberry jam toast... as well as millet porridge and honey water to nourish her stomach.

Ah Hong had brought all of them from Fu's house on the mountaintop in an insulated box. Millet porridge, honey water, and the like—clearly worried that she'd be feeling unwell from drinking last night—so she'd prepared them specially.

Fu Ziyan does not live in Jiashang Garden all the time, so there is no chef here. Even if she occasionally comes here to eat during lunch break, the chef and servants from Taiping Mountain will come in advance with the ingredients.

"Good morning, Miss."

Fu Ziyan smiled and nodded: "Good morning."

As she sat down, Ah Hong placed the morning paper she brought on Fu Ziyan's left hand.

Before I finished breakfast, the phone in the room suddenly rang.

Fu Ziyan looked up at Ah Hong who was answering the phone, and saw a flash of surprise on her face. She lowered her head and said a few words. After ending the call, she walked towards her quickly.

"Miss, please go to Shek O. The Second Concubine has arrived with the Third Master and his family."

"Dad is still there?"

"Yes, sir, he hasn't had time to go out yet."

Fu Ziyan nodded and said nothing more, but instead quickened her eating pace.

She had no doubts about the possibility of trouble happening again in her uncle's family. With so many concubines in her uncle's family, it was normal for something to happen.

She was just curious about what was going on this time.

*

"Miss, you're back." As usual, the butler Fu Zhong was there to greet Fu Ziyan at the door. He was over seventy years old, with slightly gray hair on his temples, but his posture was still upright, and his polite expression showed the heritage of the Fu family.

Fu Ziyan stepped forward and supported him: "Grandpa Butler, you are old, there is no need to go out to greet me."

"Master was out for a stroll yesterday evening when he happened to come across two very fresh crabs. He even mentioned asking the kitchen to make you crab roe buns this morning. I didn't expect you to be away last night."

"It was late, so I went to sleep over there. I didn't expect this to happen again. It's a pity to miss the crab roe buns." Fu Ziyan smiled and passed it over, then directly brought up what happened today. "Did something happen at home?"

Fu Zhong did not hide it. It was the old man who asked him to call the young lady to come and listen. He had been with the old man for most of his life and understood that the old man wanted the young lady to get involved in some family affairs.

After all, they were descendants of the eldest son's family, even if they were not biological children. They were the only descendants who would carry on the Second Young Master's legacy in the future. According to the old system, the Second Young Master was the head of the family, and the Young Miss was the eldest daughter of the first branch of the family. The grandchildren of the second and third branches could only be considered as collateral branches, and could not compare to the Young Miss in terms of nobility.

But times have changed now, and these old sayings are no longer valid.

Fu Zhong sighed in his heart. He was indeed old, and some of his old ideas were still deeply rooted and could not be changed.

He lowered his voice and told the young lady the general situation: "Young Master Zilin from the Third Master's family is almost old enough to get married. Coincidentally, one of the partners of the Third Master's company has a nice girl of the right age, so he asked the Third Madam to arrange a meeting for Young Master Zilin with the girl."

"Master Zilin had no objection. The parents of both parties met and thought it was a good idea, so they wanted to place a small engagement. Unexpectedly, Master Ziyuan happened to pass by that day, and the young lady immediately became a little upset. The next day, she made an appointment with Master Zilin, but she said she had feelings for someone else and could not get engaged."

"Afterwards, the Third Madam found out that the young lady had a past affair with Young Master Ziyuan."

Fu Ziyan's brows gradually furrowed, and she muttered to herself that such a coincidence could happen. Sure enough, the world is just a makeshift team. But she said, "When did this happen?"

"It's been almost half a year, in March of this year. Because the parents of both parties had only met, there was no time to officially announce the engagement, so the matter fell through. For the sake of the woman's reputation, it was kept secret. Perhaps the Third Master didn't want the Master to worry, so he never mentioned it. But perhaps since then, a rift has grown between the two Young Masters, Zilin and Ziyuan."

Fu Ziyan thought to herself that the so-called "don't want to worry" was an understatement. First, Fu Zimu and the fourth son of the Xi family had an argument in the street over He Simian, and then the other two sons of her third uncle fell in love with the same girl at the same time and almost got engaged.

Grandpa already had a bad impression of Fu Zimu, and Third Uncle didn't want his two adult sons to lose points in Grandpa's impression, especially since Fu Ziyuan was another successor secretly chosen by Third Uncle after Fu Zimu.

My grandfather’s property has been divided, but in addition to tangible assets, shares, and antiques, the network of contacts is also very important for the inheritance of a wealthy family.

The interpersonal relationships are naturally handed over to the heir, that is, her father.

But grandpa is still alive. If the children of my third uncle want to develop their careers, whether grandpa is willing to lend a helping hand will have a great impact on their future achievements.

"Since it's been half a year, what caused the commotion today?"

"The architectural design company run by Young Master Zilin overlapped with the part of the building materials company that Third Master assigned Young Master Ziyuan to oversee. There were some conflicts between the two parties. Coincidentally, this part of the company was also related to the company run by the young lady's family. This led to a quarrel, and the two young masters even came to blows."

"A reporter took a photo of the scene and brought it home along with the story of the two young masters and the young lady, hoping to exchange it for money."

Fu Ziyan: ...

It's really eye-catching!

"I understand. Thank you, Butler." Fu Ziyan thanked him and walked towards the living room.
