Chapter 433 His wife was actually going to abandon him to see her little niece!
The visitor was none other than Ji Shihe.
A faint, warm smile played on his lips; he was a gentleman, poised and composed, without the slightest hint of awkwardness or unease.
Over the years, as a shareholder of Heng'an Insurance, he had more contact with Fu Ziyan and gradually became someone Fu could call an acquaintance and a friend.
“I came to Shenzhen to check out the market and happened to learn that you would be attending the groundbreaking ceremony for this construction site today, so I thought I'd stop by and take a look. This is such a large piece of land, Selene, you've really gone all out.”
market?
Considering that Ji Shihe's original profession was real estate, Fu Ziyan expressed her understanding. After all, many real estate developers in Hong Kong had their eyes on Donghu Liyuan after its completion. Even some people within Fu's Real Estate suggested whether to enter the mainland market at this time, but her father rejected the idea, saying, "There's no rush."
Fu Ziyan chuckled and shook her head, replying to his "generous offer" with a humble tone: "It was our Chairman Lin who took a liking to it and proposed to acquire it. He also handled the subsequent matters. I'm just here to participate in the groundbreaking ceremony of one of my properties."
Giving his subordinates so much power... well, Ji Shihe felt a little jealous.
As more and more people came to see Fu Ziyan, Ji Shihe quickly filtered out what he wanted to say, leaving only one sentence: "After the groundbreaking ceremony, is Selene going back to Hong Kong? Do you want to come along?"
He hoped Selene would say "okay," but reality always goes against expectations.
Fu Ziyan declined, saying, "I'm afraid that won't work; I have some things to take care of in mainland China."
Heartbrokenjpg.
"I thought we'd have a chance to travel together, but it seems it's not meant to be." Ji Shihe smiled calmly, suppressing his broken heart. "Then I'll take my leave this afternoon."
"Haha~ Miss Fu! I've heard so much about you, it's a pleasure to finally meet you today."
Fu Ziyan smiled and nodded slightly to Ji Shihe, then looked at the guest whose voice was as loud as a thunderclap.
To be honest, Fu Ziyan wasn't used to such a loud voice. Most of the people she knew spoke in a gentle and polite manner, and even the most straightforward ones had a moderately clear voice. But this guest's voice was quite annoying.
However, she concealed it well; at least no one could tell that this Miss Fu from Hong Kong was uncomfortable. She still wore a gentle smile, just as she had when she interacted with the group of mainland officials and businessmen earlier.
Fu Ziyan didn't recognize this man, but after glancing at the subordinates behind him, she guessed his identity. She smiled and said, "Director Hong, it's a pleasure to meet you. I apologize for any shortcomings in our hospitality."
As the director of the steel supply plant for the construction site, Director Hong can indeed be considered a partner.
After meeting with several officials and suppliers, the auspicious time calculated by the feng shui master finally arrived.
Fire cannons are fired, incense is lit to pray for blessings, and soil is added to the foundation stone.
A complete and exquisite rectangular piece of white marble, with the words "Foundation Laying" prominently displayed in the center, and the words "Siyi Instant Noodle Industrial Park" and the date written in gold on a white background above and below, is wrapped in red silk and stands gleaming in the pit. It is surrounded by a circle of soil in a U-shape on the outside.
When the auspicious time arrived, Fu Ziyan and Lin Siqi, along with leaders from the negotiation office, walked smilingly toward the foundation stone, with an assistant handing them a specially made "golden" shovel.
The moment the first shovel of soil fell, the camera flashes shone brightly in the sunlight, forming a streak of silver as the yellowish-brown soil gently covered the foundation stone.
After three shovelfuls of soil, cannons fired in unison, and everyone took a group photo.
The ceremony is completed.
"Miss Fu, Mr. Lin, congratulations!"
Against a backdrop of yellow earth and red curtains, congratulatory cheers once again resounded at the groundbreaking ceremony...

"On the 18th of this month, a grand groundbreaking ceremony was held in Sungang, Shenzhen, for the Siyi Food Industrial Park, a modern industrial park covering 300 acres, built with huge investment by Xiangjiang Siyi Food Co., Ltd. This move..."
Early in the morning, Li Quyi, who had just finished exercising and picked up the newspaper to receive information, raised his eyebrows slightly and a smile appeared in his eyes.
Seeing this, Zhang Yuan, who was handing her husband water, was somewhat surprised: "What news made you so happy?"
Li Quyi handed the newspaper to his wife, his usually serious face unusually gentle: "Take a look too, Titi has made quite a stir in the south this time."
"Really?" Zhang Yuan smiled, took the newspaper without paying attention to the text, and immediately noticed her little niece in the illustration.
With her exquisite features and composed elegance, even a simple illustration reveals her exceptional temperament.
Zhang Yuan smiled and sighed, "It's been a few years since I last saw this child. He's grown up quite a bit. His appearance reminds me of when I first met Fu Sheng."
Although they were brothers, when she first met her husband, he was already a blood-soaked warrior, while her brother-in-law was different; when she first met him, he was already a refined and gentle man, the head of the Fu family, who had held a high position for many years. Titi's composed demeanor now bore some resemblance to that of when she first met her brother-in-law.
Li Quyi glanced at her again, a hint of nostalgia flashing in his eyes, and lowered his voice: "She looks like her father, but actually she looks more like her grandmother."
Zhang Yuan looked up at her husband in a daze, her eyes filled with concern.
She had always known that one of her husband's biggest regrets was that he hadn't received the news of his mother's passing and hadn't been able to return home to see her one last time. Over the years, to conceal his identity and also due to the political climate, her husband rarely mentioned his mother.
At this moment, there was no one else in the house besides the couple. Li Quyi covered his wife's hand with his palm and smiled reassuringly, "Ayuan, I'm fine, don't worry. Titi was raised by her father and grandfather, so it's normal for her to resemble her grandmother."
After all, Yunzhi is more like a mother than him, and Titi is a girl.
Zhang Yuan smiled, intentionally avoiding the topic, and said, "Three hundred acres of land, it seems this child has spent quite a bit."
"It's alright. Her father is rich, and Titi is even richer. She owns gold mines, diamond mines, and many other things. Three hundred acres of land won't affect her at all."
Although Fu Ziyan did not specifically mention it, someone of Li Quyi's status would naturally have access to information about patriotic Chinese businessmen like Fu Ziyan who frequently traveled to and from the mainland. It's uncertain whether all the information is complete, but it's certain that he is familiar with the publicly available information.
Zhang Yuan was momentarily surprised: "So many mines at such a young age!"
She knew her niece was wealthy, but she didn't expect her to be this wealthy.
“No wonder you have so many bodyguards around. You should keep them close,” Zhang Yuan frowned, looking worried. “I wonder if you brought enough people with you this time. The security situation in the south hasn’t been very good these past two years.”
"Don't worry, Yunzhi has been taking precautions. Titi's bodyguards are all very capable." Li Quyi chuckled. With only one child, how could Yunzhi not take proper precautions before letting her out?
"That's good."
The couple picked up the newspaper and began studying the latest news about their little niece.
"I wonder if this child will come to the capital this time."
Zhang Yuan really likes this little niece. The girl is pretty and lively, and she can also be clingy and affectionate, which completely fulfills her desire to have a daughter. She hasn't seen her for several years, and she misses seeing her little niece.
Li Quyi glanced at his wife but did not respond.
He knew his wife's expectations, but to conceal the relationship between the two sides, unless he came to the capital on business, Titi would most likely not make a special trip to the capital to see them.
"What do you think about me going to Panyu to see my grandson?"
Li Quyi's gaze paused.
As the commander of the military region, he rarely left the capital, let alone went to the south.
So... his wife was actually going to abandon him to see her little niece!
Zhang Yuan turned around and gently straightened her husband's already neat collar to comfort him, "But in that case, Comrade Li will have to stay in the capital alone."
What could Li Quyi do if his wife wanted to leave?
He will never be the reason to bind his wife.
“I’m fine. Yuan, go if you want to. When do you plan to leave? I’ll arrange your train ticket.”
However, Ms. Zhang ultimately did not go to Guangdong.
Because Fu Ziyan came to the capital.
