Chapter 85
Fu Gongguan.
Fu Jinglin was also reading the letter.
Although he had read this letter several times, every time he read it, he could find something new from it.
In particular, the daily routine and preferences that this Xiao Zhong was telling about were really quite similar to his elder brother.
Of course, the most similar thing was this Xiao Zhong’s handwriting, except that it was less harsh and more spontaneous than his elder brother’s.
If he didn’t know that his elder brother’s pen pal was Sister Mangyin, he would have thought that it was Rong Shu who had linked up with his elder brother back then.
Fu Jinglin folded the letter and put it back into the envelope, ready to put it away.
That woman, Rongshu, must be angry with him for taking the letter away without permission, and that’s why she told him to throw it away.
He wasn’t going to throw it away, he would just give it back to her next time.
Fu Jinglin grunted and had just put the letter in the drawer when there was a knock on the door, “Second Young Master, come downstairs for dinner.”
“Coming!” Fu Jinglin answered, pulling back his chair and standing up.
Coming downstairs, Gu Manyin smiled gently at him, “Brother Jinglin.”
“Sister Mangyin you’re here.” Fu Jinglin also smiled at her.
Gu Manyin nodded, “Auntie mother invited me over for dinner.”
“Oh.” Fu Jinglin looked towards Wang Shuqin and called out sullenly, “Mom.”
Wang Shuqin hummed and ignored it, lifting her feet towards the restaurant.
Fu Jinglin had no choice but to look towards Fu Jingting again.
Fu Jingting nodded slightly.
Fu Jinglin’s eyes lit up and he jumped up happily, “Yes, thank you brother.”
He knew that big brother was the best.
He could talk Ma into it every time.
“You should also thank Mangyin, Mangyin also helped you with your plea.” Fu Jingting took Gu Manyin’s hand.
Fu Jinglin froze for a moment, then looked at Gu Manyin incredulously, “Sister Mangyin helped me too?”
Gu Manyin lifted her hair behind her ears and smiled softly, “I only advised my aunt.”
In fact, she was happy to see Fu Jinglin playing basketball, so that she wouldn’t have to steal property from Jingting.
She would be Jingting’s wife in the future, and would never let the Fu family’s property fall into the hands of someone else, even if that person was Jingting’s brother!
Fu Jinglin still couldn’t believe that Gu Manyin had actually helped him, but he still obeyed and said thank you.
Somehow, he felt that she was a bit fake.
Last time he asked her to help him sign the basketball team’s contract, but she said she didn’t want to upset his mother and rejected him outright.
This time, she took the initiative to help him clear it, wasn’t she afraid that his mother would be sad?
Gu Manyin listened to Fu Jinglin’s tone of faint thanks and only felt that he didn’t appreciate her much, her heart was a little uncomfortable and the expression on her face was all aggravated, “Is brother Jinglin a little unhappy with my say-so, why does it feel like you’re not very happy about it?”
“Ha?” Fu Jinglin was dumbfounded.
When was he unhappy?
When had he been unhappy?
Seeing that Fu Jinglin didn’t answer, Gu Manyin bit her lower lip and looked at Fu Jingting somewhat helplessly, “Jingting, did I do something wrong?”
“It’s nothing.” Fu Jingting stroked her hair, then looked at his brother, “Jing Lin, apologise to Mangyin.”
“No, why should I apologise?” Fu Jinglin was completely confused.
He hadn’t said anything, he hadn’t done anything right.
What did it matter to him if she was thinking too much about it herself there?
“Alright Jingting, forget it. ” Gu Manyin tugged on Fu Jingting’s sleeve, indicating that it was not necessary.
Fu Jingting patted the back of her hand, then sank his face and scolded Fu Jinglin in a stern tone. “I said, apologize, do you hear me? ”
Fu Jinglin only felt aggrieved, but due to Fu Jingting’s authority, he apologized to Gu Manyin, “I’m sorry, Sister Manyin. ”
Gu Manyin waved her hand, “It’s alright.”
“Is this alright now?” Fu Jinglin glared at Fu Jingting and walked furiously towards the restaurant.
Gu Manyin hugged Fu Jingting’s arm tightly, “Jingting, it’s all because of that, it also caused you two brothers to fall out.”
“It’s alright, let’s go, let’s go eat first.” Fu Jingting pressed his brow and said somewhat tiredly.
Gu Manyin smiled and nodded.
At the table, Fu Jinglin didn’t say a word, obviously still angry.
He just couldn’t understand, the one who misunderstood him was Gu Manyin, why in the end the victim was also Gu Manyin, but he had become the victimizer instead, and in turn he had to apologize to Gu Manyin.
What kind of reasoning is this!
For a while, Fu Jinglin could not help but feel some dislike for Gu Manyin, and in his heart, he began to resist her becoming his sister-in-law.
He even felt that if she really became his sister-in-law in the future, there would definitely be more cases of inexplicable apologies like the one he had just made.
When he thought of this, Fu Jinglin lost his appetite and slapped his chopsticks on the table.
The crowd was startled by him and looked at him in unison.
“Brother Jinglin, what’s wrong with you?” Gu Manyin blinked her eyes and asked with concern, “Is something wrong with you?
“Don’t worry about it!” Fu Jinglin replied in an unpleasant voice.
Gu Manyin’s expression suddenly dimmed and she forced a smile, “Okay, I won’t ask ……”
“You brat, why are you doing this to your sister-in-law? ” Wang Shuqin slapped Fu Jinglin on the shoulder.
She then smiled at Gu Manyin, “Mangyin ah, don’t be angry, this brat just needs a lesson.”
Gu Manyin faintly smiled and shook her head, “Don’t worry auntie, I didn’t take it to heart.”
She said this with her mouth, but in her heart she was laughing coldly.
Fu Jinglin was really a white-eyed wolf, she had asked him nicely, but he had such an attitude.
Just wait, when she and Jingting got married, she would definitely be ruthlessly harsh in deducting his pocket money.
“That’s good then.” Wang Shuqin breathed a sigh of relief.
She didn’t want to lose such a good daughter-in-law.
“Why don’t you apologise to your sister-in-law!” Wang Shuqin urged to Fu Jinglin.
Fu Jinglin’s mouth opened and he was just about to retort that she was not his sister-in-law, when he met Fu Jingting’s deep, cold eyes, and was suddenly unable to speak.
Only then did Fu Jingting withdraw his gaze and put a piece of steamed mango into Gu Manyin’s bowl, “Eat it, it’s your favourite.”
Looking at the mango in the bowl, Gu Manyin’s face stiffened for a moment, and her grip on the chopsticks tightened imperceptibly.
When Fu Jingting saw that she was not moving her chopsticks and that she was not looking well, he narrowed his eyes and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“I’m fine, I just can’t eat mangoes, I’ve got that. “Gu Manyin took a sip of water from her gla*s, suppressing the panic and nervousness inside her, and said embarra*singly.
“In that case, then don’t eat it.” Fu Jingting didn’t doubt her words either and chucked out the steamed mango meat from her bowl.
Only then did Gu Manyin sighed in relief.
After the meal, Wang Shuqin looked at the two of them, “Mangyin ah, you’re not leaving tonight, are you?”
“Well, I’ve already told my mother, I’ll stay here for the night.” Gu Manyin smiled and said back.
“Then what can we do about this?” Wang Shuqin had a difficult look on her face.
Gu Manyin’s eyes went cold for a moment, “What should I do, auntie.”
This old woman, she didn’t want her to stay, did she?
“Of course it’s the room, the room you lived in last time, I had it redecorated, it’s not habitable yet.” Wang Shuqin sighed in a very hurtful way.
Fu Jinglin was nibbling on an apple and couldn’t help but interject when he heard this, “Mom, when are you ouch!”
Before he could finish his sentence, he was kicked by Wang Shuqin.
Wang Shuqin gave him a warning look and quickly smiled again, “How about this Jingting, how about Mangyin staying in your room tonight?”
Chapter 86
Fu Jingting was looking at the report in his tablet, when he heard this, his brow frowned a little.
Gu Manyin knew that Wang Shuqin was trying to set them up, and was still happy, when she saw the man’s slightly frowned frown, her heart thumped.
“Jingting, are you unwilling?” She bit her lip and looked at the man.
Fu Jingting’s thin lips twitched slightly and he was about to speak.
Wang Shuqin then slapped her thigh, “How could Jingting be unwilling, it’s decided!”
“Mom!” Fu Jingting’s frown deepened, “This is not good for Mangyin, we are not married yet.”
Gu Manyin’s face turned white for a moment.
Auntie had already made up her mind, and he still refused.
Had he ever considered her face!
Fu Jinglin, who was leisurely nibbling on an apple on the sofa at the side, was inexplicably a little happy in his heart when he saw Gu Manyin, who was blushing badly.
“What’s wrong with not being married? You’re an unmarried couple, sooner or later you’ll get married and live in the same room, now it’s just early.” Wang Shuqin said unconcernedly.
Fu Jingting looked at the woman with her head bowed beside her, “This is disrespectful to Mangyin.”
“What’s disrespectful about it, Mangyin she ……”
“Alright auntie mother.” Gu Manyin shook her head with a strong smile, “Since Jingting is not willing, then forget it, there are still many rooms in the public house, I can stay in other rooms.”
“But ……” Wang Shuqin was still a bit reluctant and wanted to say something else.
He said, “Mom, since Mangyin said to forget about it, then forget it.
Fu Jingting swept a glance at his younger brother, his eyes flickering slightly.
“Make up homework?” Wang Shuqin’s eyes looked at Fu Jinglin strangely.
It wasn’t that she despised her son.
Rather, this boy had never loved studying, and now he was talking about taking extra lessons, which was simply a nightmare.
“Mom, what’s that look in your eyes, what’s wrong with me making up lessons?” Fu Jinglin was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, jumping up all of a sudden.
Wang Shuqin skimmed her lips, “You’re not playing basketball, you’re not even going to take the university entrance exam, what’s the point of taking extra cla*ses?”
“It’s different, even if I don’t take the university entrance exam, I still have to study culture, if I’m too bad in culture, the basketball team will be banned, let’s go big brother.”
After saying that, Fu Jinglin pulled Fu Jingting upstairs.
Gu Manyin looked at the two figures, her hands clasped tightly on either side.
In the room, Fu Jingting closed the door behind him, “You did that on purpose, didn’t you?”
Fu Jing Lin laughed heatedly, “I’m still doing this for you brother, you don’t want to live with Sister Mangyin, that’s why I’m doing this.”
Apart from this reason, there was also another reason.
That was, he wanted to get back at Gu Manyin for her behaviour before the meal.
Fu Jinglin looked at his big brother, “Brother, why don’t you want to live with Sister Mangyin?”
Fu Jingting was caught up in this question and was suddenly a little unable to answer.
Because he himself didn’t know why, his heart was inexplicably resistant.
Even when they were at the resort, he and Mangyin were in the same room and different beds.
“Alright, what’s the point of asking so many questions, take out your textbooks, I’ll give you a tutorial.” Fu Jingting changed the subject.
Fu Jinglin’s eyes widened, “No, brother, I’m just an excuse, you really want to give me extra lessons?”
“Hurry up!” Fu Jingting looked at him coolly, his tone was unquestionable.
“……” Fu Jinglin cried, silently taking out his textbooks.
The next day.
As soon as Rongshu arrived at the office, Secretary Tong handed her a courier envelope.
“Who sent this?” Rongshu took it and looked at it, there was no sender information on it.
Secretary Tong shook her head, “Not sure, the receptionist said it was sent by a young master, specifying that it was for you.”
“A teenager?” Rongshu pursed her lips, and Fu Jinglin’s face instantly appeared in her mind.
This was the only teenager she knew.
It couldn’t really be him, could it?
“I know, you put away the documents you need to approve today, I’ll go back to the office first. ” Rongshu clipped the envelope to her arm.
“Yes. ” Secretary Tong answered.
Back in her office, Rong Shu put her bag down, then pulled out her chair and sat down before opening the envelope.
Inside was a ticket and a sticky note.
The ticket had an orange basketball printed on it, and next to it was written ui7 Youth Expedition Tournament.
Rongshu immediately verified her suspicions that this was indeed a gift from Fu Jinglin.
Rongshu put the ticket aside and picked up the other sticky note, the crooked dog-crawling words on it instantly spiced up her eyes.
After a hint of disgust flashed across her face, she then read the content on the sticky note, “Sister Rong Shu, tomorrow is my first game in the national team, you must come and watch.
The first thing you need to do is to go to your game. ”
She had already given him face by helping him get into the basketball team, but he wanted her to go to the game, dream on!
I really don’t know what the Fu brothers are thinking, when she didn’t leave the Fu family, they all disliked her to death, but after she left, they are now treating her better.
What a sickness!
Rong Shu coldly pulled the corners of her lips, then tore up the sticky note and threw it into the trash.
“Mr. Rong. ” There was a knock at the door.
Rongshu looked up, “Come in. ”
“These are the documents that were collected. ” Secretary Tong put down the pile of documents.
Rongshu nodded, “Good, I’ll look at them later, besides, you inform General Lu of the meeting at ten o’clock.”
“Yes.” When Secretary Tong heard the word General Lu, her eyes flickered slightly and she nodded in response.
After she left, Rong Shu picked up the pen and began to process the documents, and when it was almost ten o’clock, she got up with her cane and left the office for the meeting.
By the time the meeting was over, it was already noon.
Secretary Tong ordered lunch and sent it to Rongshu’s office.
After Rong Shu casually ate a few bites, Chen Xingnuo knocked on the door and came in with a few bereaved expressions on his face, “Mr. Rong, I’m back.”
“Welcome.” Rong Shu smiled at her.
Chen Xingnuo sighed.
Rongshu was puzzled and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Chen Xingnuo shrugged her shoulders, “I’ve made this trip for nothing again, I still haven’t found the person I’m looking for.”
“It’s alright, take your time.” Rongshu smiled and rea*sured her, then pointed to the chair opposite, “Sit.”
Chen Xingnuo pulled out the chair and sat down, “Mr. Rong, the loans from those banks have just come through, there are six hundred million, I have already allocated a way to use this money, please take a look.”
“Okay.” Rong Shu took the document and read it.
After reading it, she nodded her head, “The allocation is good, like this, the projects that Tiansheng Group has stopped for a lot can be restarted, I will discuss with Lu Qi and the others in a while, if there is no problem, we will follow your this.”
“Good, then I won’t bother you for dinner, I’ll go out first.” Chen Xingnuo got up and left.
Rongshu picked up her chopsticks again and continued eating.
After she finished eating, she immediately approached Lu Qi and a few senior executives to discuss the matter.
In the end, it was unanimously decided that the previous projects would be relaunched according to the funds allocated by Chen Xingnuo.
After the implementation, Rong Shu was busy, running up and down the various departments, and when she took a break, it was already two o’clock in the afternoon the next day.
She sat down in her office chair and exhaled, exchanging her two arms to pound her sore shoulders.
After hammering for a while, her shoulders didn’t hurt as much, so she pulled open a drawer to make herself a refreshing cup of tea, and then she saw the basketball game tickets in the drawer.
“What time is it?” Rongshu looked up towards the bottom right corner of her computer.
Two thirty-nine minutes!
Not even four o’clock yet.
Should we go?
Rongshu was a little hesitant.
In fact, she was inclined not to go.
But if she didn’t go, the tickets would be wasted and it was a bit of a pity.
In the end, Rongshu decided to go and have a look, after all, she was the one who got the tickets for Fu Jinglin, so going to see one of his matches would be his reward.
With this in mind, Rong Shu picked up the internal line and asked Secretary Tong to arrange a driver.
