C7 The Same Woman

Fu Yunjian had never met such a sharp-tongued woman before.

When he realized that it was the same woman from this morning, his scowl grew deeper. “Seeing as how you can’t even read basic signage, I suggest that you get your eyes checked as soon as possible.”

He was sure that there was something wrong with this woman, one way or another.

His words jolted Yan Shu back to her senses.

She glanced at his crotch and raised an eyebrow. “You should go to the hospital yourself. It looks like you need a major surgery to enhance a crucial part of your body!”

She whirled around and stomped out of the bathroom.

What a disaster this day was.

Fu Yunjian was fuming when he returned to their table.

“Director Fu,” Assistant Zhang greeted, only to cut himself short at the sight of his boss’ expression.

“Tell that woman to compensate for the car’s damages the moment you get a quotation from the store!” Fu Yunjian ordered.

“Yes, Sir.”

Assistant Zhang’s brows furrowed. ‘Did he happen to run into that woman just now?’

Fu Yunjian’s mood only lightened up when he returned home later that day. Fu Jingyan was fiddling with his toys in his room.

“What are you up to, Little Bun?”

The boy rushed over and hugged him. He raised his iPad to Fu Yunjian. “Dad, I’m making dancing robots!”

He grabbed his makeshift control and pressed some buttons. His toy robot promptly shook its arm, which then fell off and landed on the floor.

This upset Fu Jingyan.

“Oh, it was waving its hand,” Fu Yunjian cajoled his son. “Very impressive.” He picked the boy up and carried him to the dining room, where Assistant Zhang had already laid out the food from the party.

Fu Yunjian set his son on a chair and handed him a pair of chopsticks. “Go ahead and try them. See if you like any of these dishes.”

The scent of the food was indeed tempting, and Fu Jingyan didn’t hesitate to pick up a piece of braised beef.

The two men watched with bated breaths as the boy chewed the food and frowned, looking bemused.

Although the old lady had used dirty tricks to get some random woman to birth his child, Fu Jingyan was still his son. Fu Yunjian naturally cared for him.

It broke his heart to witness the deterioration of his son’s health without being able to do anything.

“I’ll go and ask Aunt Lan to prepare the nutritional supplements.” Assistant Zhang got up and was about to go to the kitchen when they saw Fu Jingyan pick up another piece of food.

Soon, he was eating with relish.

“Director Fu,” Assistant Zhang muttered in amazement.

“I’m not blind,” Fu Yunjian retorted through a relieved smile.

It didn’t take long for Fu Jingyan to finish everything.

He grabbed his iPad and typed something. “Dad, these dishes are very delicious. I’d like to eat them again tomorrow, is that okay?”

“Sure,” Fu Yunjian as he patted his son’s head.

Worried that the tiny body might not be able to digest so much food all at once, he asked Assistant Zhang to get a digestive pill for his Little Bun.

“It looks like that chef from the Pearl Hotel is quite extraordinary!” Assistant Zhang later remarked.

“Call them and ask that chef to come over and take care of Jingyan’s food from now on,” Yunjian instructed. “Have the purchase contract on my desk by tomorrow.”

He had begun the process of acquiring the Pearl Hotel last year, but the market price was never completely settled, and the transaction was duly delayed.

“Understood.”

Just then, Assistant Zhang’s phone vibrated, indicating that he had received a message.

He read the text and reported its contents. “Director Fu, Miss Gu wants to have dinner with you. She is waiting for you at the Red House Restaurant.”

Hearing this, Fu Jingyan trembled in his seat.

Fu Yunjian failed to notice it, however. He retrieved his coat and walked to the door. “I’m going to the company. Tell her I’ll meet her at the restaurant at 7:30.”

It was high time he took the old lady’s advice into serious consideration.

He might not want a wife, but Little Bun was still like. His son needed a mother.
