Ever since then, he had never felt at ease. He felt like he was being restricted everywhere. Even when he crossed the road, he had to be on tenterhooks lest he get caught and fined!
This was not a place for people to stay!
Fu Yao said patiently, "There's an old saying in China, 'nothing can be accomplished without rules.' Everyone follows the rules and society operates normally. "
Fu Bing said, "Rules are dead, but people are alive. People can't be bound by rules. What's the point of living like that?"
Fu Yao shook his head and led him to a secluded area. He pointed to the trash can at the side and said, "You can smoke here."
"Sigh, I'll leave as soon as your wedding is over. If I stay any longer, I'll go crazy." After Fu Bing lit his cigarette, he wanted to spit at the flower bed, but he forcefully held it back.
He felt even worse.
Fu Yao was angry and amused at the same time.
Fu Bing said, "My niece-in-law is not bad. She respects me quite a bit. You should treat her better too. She's pregnant. Don't be stupid."
"I'm not stupid."
"Do you think you have a good temper just because you're silent? I've seen through you. You have the same personality as your mother. Stubborn. Once you've made up your mind, no one can say anything. " Fu Bing said disapprovingly, "Although I'm noisy, I'm timid. I know that. I'm still better than you and your mother."
Ever since she was young, his sister had always been a bold person. She wasn't afraid of anything. As a boy, he was a little mischievous, but he wasn't that brave.
Fu Yao said, "Am I like what you said?"
"How is it not?" Fu Bing said, "You're not bad. Don't be like your mother. It's good enough that you can protect your family business."
After following his nephew in the online real estate business for so long, he had seen another side of his nephew. He did things swiftly and decisively, and he wouldn't turn back until he hit the wall.
"I hope so." After his uncle finished smoking, Fu Yao brought him to the mall for a stroll.
Fu Yao said, "Uncle, what do you like? I'll buy it for you."
Fu Bing waved his hand and said, "Apart from the food and drinks that are a little special, the rest of the clothes and watches are not much different from the ones in China. There's nothing wrong with my head. I won't bring these back."
Fu Bing casually glanced at the various shops and counters, but there was really nothing worth being curious about. He couldn't raise his interest at all, so he returned home.
On the way back, he passed by a fruit shop. He walked in and looked at the fruits he had never seen before. He randomly picked two of them and held them in his hands.
Fu Xia had a lot of old friends and business partners. Her son was getting married. Basically, all the people who could come were there. Many of them came all the way from the country, and many of them needed to be personally received by her.
Qiu Huimin was pregnant, but out of courtesy, she also helped her mother-in-law to socialize.
Fu Yao had just sent a group of guests to the St. Regis Hotel when a group of five or six people came and stood at the door. Qiu Huimin invited them into the room and asked the servants to serve tea. She said embarrassedly, "Sorry, I don't know how to address you."
"Haha, Fu Yao calls me uncle, you can call me that too." Li He's first impression of Qiu Huimin was very good. She was good-looking and graceful. She was worthy of his son.
Qiu Huimin said, "Uncle Li, have some tea. Fu Yao has sent the guests to the hotel. Take a seat and will be back soon."
Zhou Ping held Qiu Huimin's hand and said, "Fu Xia is really lucky to have such a beautiful daughter-in-law. She's like a superstar."
Qiu Huimin said, "Auntie, you're overpraising me."
"Where's your mother-in-law?" Li He asked.
He still hadn't seen Fu Xia's shadow.
"My mother-in-law has a meeting today. She'll be back soon." Qiu Huimin had met many people, but she had never felt as pressured as this person in front of her. He was clearly smiling when he spoke, but there was an unquestionable authority in his words and actions.
Li He said to Pan Song, who was beside him, "Look, this is what it means to have a career. Even when your son got married, he didn't forget about the company."
Pan Song smiled and said, "You don't say, she's really capable. In the past, who would have thought that a small piece of furniture could reach such a scale? Moreover, she's working abroad alone. The language barrier isn't easy to pass. I can't help but admire her."
He was speaking from the bottom of his heart.
He had spent time in the Soviet Union, so he knew how difficult it was to pass the language barrier.
"Hey, Old Pan, how can you praise someone behind their back? Come, praise them in front of me so that I can be happy." Fu Xia returned. She first nodded at Li He, then shook hands with Pan Song, Su Ming, Zhou Ping, Huang Bingxin, and the others. "Thank you. I've troubled you all to come all this way."
Zhou Ping smiled and said, "My boss is coming soon. Do you think you can run away?"
Fu Xia said, "Your boss is called Pang Yu, right? This young man is so handsome. I've seen him in the papers before. "
Zhou Ping smiled and said, "That's definitely not a good thing. The tabloids only write about you all day long."
Fu Xia pointed at Qiu Huimin and said, "You've seen this daughter-in-law, right?"
Zhou Ping said, "I was just saying that you're lucky to have such a beautiful daughter-in-law."
"Haha, I admit that." Fu Xia smiled and said, "All of you, sit down and have some tea. Don't stand on ceremony."
Everyone was chatting happily. After Qiu Huimin stood there for a while, Fu Xia felt bad for her and let her go upstairs to rest.
In the evening, after the guests had finished their dinner, they left for the hotel.
Qiu Huimin massaged Fu Yao's shoulders and asked curiously, "I don't think I've heard of that Uncle Li."
Fu Yao smiled and said, "He's from China and you're from Singapore. Of course you haven't heard of him."
"That's not what I meant." Qiu Huimin explained, "Huang Bingxin is here today too."
"I know." Fu Yao was even more puzzled.
Qiu Huimin said, "It's weird."
Fu Yao said, "You're trying to say that he's afraid of Uncle Li, right?"
"Yeah …" She was afraid that her husband would think too much, so she couldn't say it so bluntly. Since her husband asked, she admitted it directly.
Huang Bingxin was the CEO of the Merchant Financial Group and a famous financial tycoon. To her, he was a big shot that was out of her reach.
Moreover, it was thanks to the loan from the Merchant Bank that their family was able to avoid the crisis this time.
However, what surprised her was that such a person was actually very reserved in front of Li He. The old man in his seventies acted like a shy little girl.
Fu Yao continued, "Are you going to say that my mother is also afraid of him?"
"I didn't notice that."
Even if she did, she couldn't admit it.
She wasn't that stupid to hurt her mother-in-law's pride.
Fu Yao smiled and said, "There's nothing to hide because he's the shadow tycoon of China's business. My mother and Huang Bingxin were all personally promoted by him."
"Ah …" Qiu Huimin didn't expect there to be such a layer.
Fu Yao said, "However, because my mother didn't have the same ideals as them, she left Singapore and started her own business."
