Chapter 140: Visiting Mrs. Lu at Fukang Hospital
Chapter 140: Visiting Mrs. Lu at Fukang Hospital
As expected, Fu Ziyan was incredibly busy after the start of school. Firstly, there were school matters, and secondly, her father was away on business, and she had to be involved in some important social interactions with the wealthy family.
But in September, human affairs happen one after another.
First, my eldest cousin Fu Zitong, who married into the Shen family, became pregnant.
Whether out of cooperation with the Shen family or out of sisterhood, Fu Ziyan had to go and visit them. During this visit, she accidentally met Fu Zimu and He Simian again.
After experiencing a series of love dramas such as being separated, running away late at night, and being stopped at the airport, Fu Zimu and He Simian's relationship became stronger, and they officially ended the ambiguous period and became boyfriend and girlfriend.
The second concubine's plan to use a check to drive the man away failed, and instead added fuel to the fire of Master Fu's love.
Seeing that the eldest grandson was determined and the old man turned a deaf ear to him, the second concubine had no choice but to accept He Simian as the eldest grandson's girlfriend.
After going public, Fu Zimu and He Simian, who had successfully entered the honeymoon phase of their relationship, displayed their affection with abandon. They showered him with roses and flowers, booked private dates, and gifted him with jewellery. Their constant displays of affection successfully drew the attention of the news media to Fu's eldest grandson and his girlfriend, contributing to the gossip surrounding Hong Kong's wealthy families.
Xinmeng Newspaper, owned by Fu Ziyan, is also one of the members that provides real-time tracking reports.
Zhang Boyue had consulted Fu Ziyan before publishing the article, as Fu Zimu was his boss's cousin. Fu Ziyan was busy with her work at the time and didn't take it seriously, agreeing without hesitation.
Fu Zimu himself didn't mind showing off their affection, and he kept himself "bound" to the entertainment newspapers day in and day out. What was there for her to hide? She couldn't lose a cent of the money she deserved!
Fu Ziyan had read too many of Fu Zimu's dating stories in the entertainment newspapers, and since she was so busy recently, she didn't bother to pay attention anymore. Unexpectedly, he actually brought He Simian to the Shen family to visit Fu Zitong, who was already three months pregnant.
He is indeed Fu Zimu, who is obsessed with love!
He Simian seemed to be a little confused.
As soon as she followed Fu Zimu into the house, she put down the gift and began to care about Fu Zitong's pregnancy. She even asked about the Shen family's attitude towards this baby, acting like an eldest sister-in-law.
Fu Zimu sat next to He Simian, and seeing his Mianmian socializing seriously for him, a warm feeling surged in his heart, and his eyes were full of love.
Fu Ziyan and her aunt Zhou Hanyue, who came to the Shen family with her, looked at each other and saw the speechless look in each other's eyes.
Not to mention that He Simian was only Fu Zimu's girlfriend now, and shouldn't have been brought by Fu Zimu to visit Fu Zitong at the Shen family. Even if the two were engaged, given her relationship with Fu Zitong, she shouldn't have asked about the Shen family's attitude like this.
Who gave He Simian the courage to step on two landmines at once?
And Fu Zimu, is he here to visit Fu Zitong today, or to perform his love?
Fu Zitong's smile froze for a moment. The Shen family treated her very well, but she didn't think she needed to answer He Simian's questions. She was already giving Fu Zimu face by letting He Simian come in and take a seat.
Out of politeness, she simply replied, "Thank you for your concern, everything is fine," and then changed the subject. "Yan Yan, the new styles at that embroidery shop you invested in are so hard to come by lately. Can you give me a backdoor?"
Fu Ziyan has always been more considerate towards pregnant women. She couldn't bear to see the love-brained couple's actions, so she quickly replied with a smile, "Sis Zitong asked, how can I refuse? Who knows, my little niece might like it too. I'll have the embroiderer make a baby bag so the little one will have one when she's born."
The old doctor was very capable. When Fu Zitong was three months pregnant, he had already diagnosed the baby in her belly as a little princess from her pulse. This was also the reason why He Simian asked about the Shen family's attitude.
Fu Zitong smiled, her eyes full of maternal warmth, "Then I'll thank her aunt on behalf of the baby."
Fu Zitong became sleepy after she became pregnant. Fu Ziyan didn't sit for long before she looked tired. Seeing this, Fu Ziyan and her aunt stood up and said goodbye.
After leaving the Shen family, they had a second trip today - to go to Fukang Hospital to visit the old lady of the Lu family, who was also Lu Yan's great-grandmother.
Fu Ziyan had originally agreed to go visit him with her father, but her father had to go on a business trip to Europe. Now a week has passed, and if she doesn't go to visit him, the old man will be discharged from the hospital.
The old lady's injuries weren't too serious. Logically, given her age, she should have stayed in the hospital for a few more days and been discharged when she was well again. But perhaps because of her old age and the fall, or perhaps because of the atmosphere in the hospital, the old lady had been feeling depressed, so the Lu family planned to discharge her in the next two days and let her go home to recuperate.
It was only after hearing that Mrs. Lu was planning to be discharged from the hospital that Fu Ziyan hurriedly took time out of her busy schedule. After all, she knew about Mrs. Lu's injury the moment she fell, and since it had been over a week, it wouldn't be a good idea to wait for her to return home before visiting her.
It just so happened that because her uncle occasionally dealt with the Lu family, and since Mrs. Lu was in the hospital, her aunt was supposed to go visit her, so Fu Ziyan simply asked her aunt to go along.
Bringing flowers, fruit baskets and various nourishing foods, they arrived to find Old Lady Lu sitting in the middle of the sofa, flanked by caregivers and several of the Lu family's grandchildren, who chatted and entertained her.
Lu Yan was there too.
As soon as he saw Fu Ziyan, his eyes lit up and his heart pounded like fireworks.
God knows how much he wants to see Yanyan!
But Yanyan was very busy during this period, and he and his family had to take turns going to the hospital to accompany his grandmother. The two sides' schedules were completely staggered, and they didn't see each other very often, let alone go on a date.
Because his great-grandmother had fallen and injured herself, he asked for two more days off from school, but even so, he could not stay in Hong Kong for a few more days. He had to board a plane next Wednesday, and today was already Sunday, so there were only less than three days left.
He had originally planned to go to Fu's house on Barker Road to find Yanyan for a walk after dinner, but he didn't expect Yanyan to come to the hospital!
Perhaps it was a tacit understanding between lovers, but Fu Ziyan immediately noticed Lu Yan's change of mood. A smile flashed in her eyes, but she didn't rush to respond to Lu Yan. Instead, she greeted Mrs. Lu gracefully and calmly. "Hello, Grandma Lu. My father is Fu Qiyuan. You can just call me Ziyan. I heard that you fell, so my aunt and I came to see you on behalf of the family. Are you okay?"
The old lady was very kind. Although she was very old, she still had the same open and generous demeanor as before. "Thank you for coming to see me. Please take a seat. I'm fine."
The old lady probably noticed the eye contact between Lu Yan and Fu Ziyan. After Fu Ziyan and her aunt sat with her for a while, she stood up to say goodbye. Without waiting for Lu Yan to speak, she took the initiative to instruct Lu Yan, "Lu Yan, help Grandma see the guests off."
Lu Yan raised the corners of his lips and responded with a smile.
When the younger Lu family members around Lu Yan heard this, they all winked at each other and smiled, "Brother, you don't have to rush back. We're good enough to accompany Grandma. There's a dim sum shop in Central that's delicious. You can buy some while you're there."
"Okay~"
Fu Ziyan remained calm and composed, still smiling politely, "Then we will leave. I wish you a speedy recovery."
