Shen Xingsui was a little stunned after hearing this, and asked, "Who invited me over?"
The attendant smiled and said, "It's the old lady."
Shen Xingsui heard from his mother that the noodle soup made by the old lady is delicious. Although his mother didn't describe the old lady much, he can probably guess that the old lady is a good person.
Shen Xingchen said: "You go, the old lady is very good, she even gave me a red envelope!"
In Shen Xingchen's simple world, giving red envelopes = a good person.
Shen Xingsui smiled, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go there now."
They walked through the crowded hall together, walked up the simple wooden stairs, and soon reached the upstairs. The decoration style of the old house of the Fu family is very simple and simple, and they can feel an oncoming , the feeling of heavy history, calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall, and the glass cabinets in the arms are displaying vases, which are exquisite and beautiful.
The attendant in front said as he walked, "Before you came, the old lady kept thinking about you."
Shen Xingsui asked, "The old lady knows me?"
"I know." The attendant smiled: "She often watches your shows and listens to your songs."
"..."
Shen Xingsui fell into deep thought.
Not for anything else, just a sudden thought, why do I feel that my songs are particularly liked by the elderly
Is this reasonable
There seems to be nothing wrong with it.
The two walked to the door of a room together. The attendant opened the door so that Shen Xingsui could walk in. Shen Xingsui took a deep breath nervously before stepping in.
The room seems to be lighted with a touch of sandalwood, which smells elegant and pleasant.
An old lady was sitting on the sofa, and she seemed to be holding a book in her hand. When she heard the sound of someone coming in, she turned her head, looked at each other, and smiled: "Sui Sui, you are here."
Shen Xingsui was a little surprised to see this old lady.
She is very young, about the same age as her grandma, but she is well maintained. Even with white hair, she is still very delicate and beautiful.
Shen Xingsui bowed: "Mrs. Fu, hello."
"You don't have to be so polite." The old lady said, "You can also call me Grandma, just call me Grandma Fu."
Shen Xingsui felt that this seemed a bit out of order. He would admit his relatives as soon as he came up. He wanted to refuse, and he shouldn't agree, but when he met the old lady's eyes, he couldn't say anything to refuse.
The old lady beckoned to him and said, "Son, come and sit beside me."
Shen Xingsui came over and sat down beside her.
"You are more handsome than the one on TV." The old lady looked at him with a smile and said, "You are really similar to your parents."
Shen Xingsui was a little embarrassed to be praised, and said a little shyly, "Thank you for your compliment."
The old lady's smile suddenly subsided a lot, and she whispered: "Actually, at the beginning, when I heard that Lina had arranged a marriage for our eldest grandson before you said anything, I was not happy."
Shen Xingsui's heart rose.
He didn't expect that the old lady would call him over to say this, he was a little mentally prepared, but not all.
The old lady said again: "Later, I heard that it might be a boy, and I was even more unhappy. Although the technology is advanced and advanced, it will not be the last one, but our family has always been a single family. If something goes wrong What an accident, we are such a big family business, how do we deal with ourselves?"
Listening to the old lady's words, Shen Xingsui curled up his hands unconsciously, he responded indiscriminately, and his heart was also in a mess.
The old lady seemed to understand what he was thinking, so she patted his hand comfortingly and said, "But later, I heard that something happened to your family. It's also very unpleasant, and he hasn't looked for the child tonight, so I thought, maybe, in fact, you also have a destiny, and many things, you should let nature take its course."
After hearing this, Shen Xingsui was also in a mixed mood. He said, "You flattered me too. Mr. Fu hasn't been looking for him. Maybe it's just that he hasn't met the right person."
The old lady shook her head.
She seemed to have thought of something, and took out a photo album from the side. If Shen Xingsui remembered correctly, this photo album seemed to be the one that the old lady had been looking at when she first entered this room.
The old lady opened the photo album, turned to a page and handed it to him: "Look."
Shen Xingsui came over and saw a family photo.
And in this family portrait, the woman standing beside Mr. Fu and holding hands is not Lina.
Shen Xingsui said in surprise, "This person is..."
"She is tonight's biological mother, Wen Rong." The old lady looked at the woman in the photo and said with some emotion: "When Wen Rong gave birth to this child, he died of dystocia, and left without making it through."
Shen Xingsui had always heard that the relationship between Teacher Fu and his father was not good, but he never knew that there was such a relationship.
The old lady had some emotion: "After Wen Rong's death, Lina only came in two years later, it's not bad for her to treat Tonight as her own, but Tonight has always blamed her mother's death on her father. "
Shen Xingsui: "Why?"
The old lady originally felt that her family's ugliness should not be publicized, but she still told Shen Xingsui truthfully: "Because he suspected that his father was cheating."
Shen Xingsui's pupils widened.
"When Wen Rong gave birth, he happened to be on a business trip in the United States and didn't have time to come back." The old lady sighed: "Lina is also an American, there may be some misunderstandings, but this child is very stubborn tonight, Wen Rong's death, Including the discord with his father all the time, which made him very resistant to marriage. For a while, I even worried that this child would never have a partner for the rest of his life."
Shen Xingsui was also shocked, but after hearing what the old lady said, he still blushed and stammered: "You misunderstood, I am not Mr. Fu's target."
The old lady had an expression on her face that it was not a matter of time.
Shen Xingsui didn't know how to explain it, but the old lady took out another seal from behind and handed it to Shen Xingsui, saying: "That's my grandson, why can't I see it, grandma is very happy about the two of you, This is a meeting ceremony, I hope you don't dislike it."
Shen Xingsui took a look, this seal looked very textured, and it was definitely not ordinary.
He quickly refused: "Grandma, this is too expensive, I can't take it."
"You deserve it." The old lady patted his hand and said, "Son, just accept it."
Shen Xingsui refused for a long time, but he couldn't resist the old man and had no choice but to accept it in the end.
It happened that the previous banquet was halfway through, and the dance was about to begin, so the old lady asked him to go downstairs to play, and Shen Xingsui was able to escape.
As soon as I arrived downstairs, I heard the music in the hall already sounding, with melodious piano music mixed in the middle.
Shen Xingchen waved at him and said, "Come down after it's almost started."
Shen Xingsui walked up to him, looked towards the middle of the stage, and happened to see Fu Jinxiao who was playing piano music. The man was wearing a dark blue suit and was sitting by the piano stand. The bright white lights in the hall fell and hit him. , his back is straight, his posture is elegant, and his handsome profile has the charm of a mature man.
There are many guests around, all listening to the piano music seriously.
Fu Jinxiao's slender and white hands fell on the piano keys. In the eyes of everyone, he was as eye-catching as the protagonist.
Shen Xingchen said with emotion from the side: "Mr. Fu plays the piano really well."
"Yeah." Shen Xingsui looked at that person and smiled softly: "He once said that music does not distinguish between high and low, everyone is unique in their own world."
That was the second day when Jian Zhi smashed the music score for him.
That night he locked himself in his room without falling asleep, his love and longing for music was like a mirror being crushed and trampled alive, and he couldn't say a word.
Also that night, he accidentally clicked on a video, which was a music talent show that Fu Jinxiao participated in. At that time, Fu Jinxiao had just had a falling out with his father and broke into the entertainment industry alone. Naturally, young people with no background He received all kinds of unfair treatment. In the program, his music works were criticized as having no content, no business, and low quality, which was far worse than the other group.
At that time, the young people on the stage did not show any sadness because of these words.
Fu Jinxiao stood there, even if he failed, he was still calm, he smiled and said, "There is no distinction between high and low in music, everyone is the only one in their own world."
This sentence made the judges in the audience choke their belittling words in their throats.
Later, Fu Jinxiao competed again after a lapse of a year and won the championship. From then on, he started his stepping stone into the entertainment industry. It was also at that time that Shen Xingsui was greatly encouraged. At that time, Fu Jinxiao was like the beacon of the world, giving him hope and strength.
Until today.
Fu Jinxiao is still the shining star in his life, hanging high in the sky, not to be underestimated.
At the end of the song, there was applause from all around.
The dance was thus kicked off, and the well-dressed rich ladies stepped forward one after another. Everyone's goal was quite the same, and soon someone stepped forward:
"Mr. Fu, can I dance with you?"
"I want to invite you to dance."
"Mr. Fu, I don't know if I have this honor..."
At balls, it is normal for men to invite women to dance, but today, in the Fu family, this situation seems to be the exact opposite, reversed.
Fu Jinxiao stood up, his slender figure allowed him to look down at everyone, with a hypocritical and kind smile on the man's face: "Thank you for your attention, it's my honor, but everyone is excellent, it's really embarrassing …”
The ladies glanced at each other, and each saw hostility in each other's eyes.
Just when everyone was hesitating, I heard Fu Yingdi say: "For the sake of fairness, let's use this flower to decide what to do. Whoever it falls on will be the one."
It does seem quite fair.
Everyone readily agreed, and Fu Jinxiao casually took a flower from behind. The red rose was unusually gorgeous and beautiful in the man's hand. He raised his hand, and the flower turned into a parabola, hitting the audience watching the theater directly. On Shen Xingsui's head.
"ah."
Fu Jinxiao's voice stretched out a bit: "My hands slipped."
"But since the rules have been stated before, for the sake of fairness," Fu Jinxiao said slowly, with the corners of his mouth curled up, "Then it has to be him. Do you have any opinions?"
Ladies: "..."
It's really "fair".
Fu Jinxiao didn't care what everyone thought, stepped over the girls, stood in front of Shen Xingsui, and whispered, "Does it hurt?"
Shen Xingsui shook his head, he hesitated, "What does this mean?"
Fu Jinxiao bent over slightly, with an elegant and polite posture, raised his arms, stretched them out in front of Shen Xingsui and said, "That means, respected Mr. Shen, may I have the honor to invite you to dance?"
The man's handsome eyebrows and eyes are even more handsome under the light, and his voice is deep and magnetic, like a very noble prince.
Shen Xingsui pointed at himself almost in disbelief and said, "Me, me?"
Fu Jinxiao curled his lips: "Otherwise?"
"But I haven't danced for a long time."
"It doesn't matter."
"But I'm not very good at women's steps..."
Fu Jinxiao said slowly, "I'll dance."
! ! !
Not only Shen Xingsui was shocked, but Shen Xingchen who was beside him was also shocked.
How can anyone be so honored to dance the first dance with Fu Jinxiao? The most bizarre thing is that this person can make Fu Jinxiao dance the first dance at the next best thing!
Shen Xingsui quickly said: "No, it's okay, I can try the women's step, but it may be relatively unfamiliar, just don't dislike it."
Fu Jinxiao held his hand and led him onto the dance floor.
The other girls at the scene were stunned. They had been staring at her all night. They never dreamed that they would have a date, but they were cut off by someone, and it was cut off by a boy!
Fu Jinxiao led Shen Xingsui to dance with natural and skillful movements.
Shen Xingsui felt those unkind eyes behind him, and he stuttered a little: "Mr. Fu, you invited me, will you offend some people?"
Fu Jinxiao responded lightly: "Really?"
Shen Xingsui nodded cautiously.
"Whether they are happy or not has something to do with me?" Fu Jinxiao's voice was upright, and he took Shen Xingsui around in a circle, wrapped his arms around the waist of the person in his arms, lowered his head slightly, and attached himself to Shen Xingsui's ear, slowly Said: "I'm happy."
"..."
Shen Xingsui's earlobes were slowly stained red.
As if being soaked in a honeypot suddenly, he was a little at a loss, and even stepped on Fu Jinxiao's foot because he was too flustered.
Shen Xingsui hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, Teacher Fu!"
Fu Jinxiao sighed, he put his arms around Shen Xingsui's waist, patted it lightly, and lowered his voice: "Take it easy, baby."
! !
Shen Xingsui only felt that the voice in his ears and the warm breath seemed to blow into his heart.
Not only did he fail to relax, he made mistakes one after another, stepped on it several times, and when the dance was over, Shen Xingsui blushed from self-reproach, and even apologized.
Fu Jinxiao didn't mean to condemn him.
"Sui Sui, your dancing skills." With a helpless smile on his face, the man gently patted Shen Xingsui on the head: "From now on, remember not to dance with anyone except me."
! ! !
Shen Xingsui was ashamed and angry.
Is he really that bad at dancing? Woohoo!
Shen Xingsui withdrew halfway through the dance, and he couldn't afford to lose this person. It happened that Shen Xingchen didn't dance, so he dragged him to the party in the backyard.
Shen Xingchen said: "I'm really starving to death, do you know that the small cakes in the front hall are delicious, but they are too tired to eat, and the pork ribs in sauce are still delicious."
Shen Xingsui, who was eating fried chicken next to him, had a deep understanding.
Aristocrats and high-ranking people like to put some exquisite pastries on the table when they have nothing to do. They are not useful, but the meat tastes good.
Shen Xingchen suggested in the middle of eating: "Oh, by the way, Sui Sui, you see, Mr. Fu will be busy at the party in the evening, and this time he will be attending a dance or something, so he must not have eaten a bite. Do you want to put these things away?" Bring some to him."
Shen Xingsui felt that what his brother said made sense, so he nodded: "Okay."
After the dance, he seemed to hear Fu Jinxiao saying that he was going upstairs to greet grandma, and it happened that he knew the way and could wait for him in the corridor.
Holding the plate in his hand, Shen Xingsui went back upstairs through the aisle, stepped on the stairs, and came to grandma's room according to his memory, but the house was too big, and he got lost while walking.
In the study on the second floor, a dispute is also taking place:
Mr. Fu said very sternly: "I'm not discussing with you now, but you should have a limit to your willfulness."
Fu Jinxiao's voice was slow, and although it wasn't heavy, it could be heard that he was not in a good mood: "Since my father didn't come to discuss with me, why bother to pretend to say this."
"I'm doing this for your own good." Mr. Fu said: "Could it be that the path I arranged for you will be wrong? With your ability, I can rest assured that Fu's will be in your hands. I will wait for you to sit on my seat in the future." position, you'll understand that it can't be a wrong choice."
Fu Jinxiao seemed to sneer: "It seems that father doesn't regret his choice at all?"
These words seemed to hit Mr. Fu's sore spot.
"Fu Jinxiao!" Mr. Fu scolded angrily, "I've told you many times that what happened to your mother was just an accident, it had nothing to do with Lina, and it had nothing to do with me..."
Fu Jinxiao raised his eyebrows: "It has nothing to do with you, right?"
Boss Fu suddenly choked up.
Fu Jinxiao sneered: "You know that she is on her due date, but is that business so important that you must fly to the United States to discuss it in person?"
"The business obviously ended two days ago. You didn't come back, but left the company and went to another place." Fu Jinxiao's voice paused, as if sarcasm: "So it has nothing to do with you, right?"
Dystocia, maybe it really has nothing to do with this man.
But how desperate was that woman before she died, when she needed her husband the most
Mr. Fu sighed: "It was all an accident, and I didn't expect it to happen. I thought nothing would happen."
The irony in Fu Jinxiao's eyes was even stronger.
"And I married Lina, she treats you well, doesn't she?" Mr. Fu looked at his son: "I thought you had never met Wen Rong, Lina will be your mother, take good care of you, and won't let you Any childhood regrets... ”
Fu Jinxiao didn't say a word.
Mr. Fu looked at his proudest eldest son and knew his stubborn temper, so he backed down and said softly: "Okay, I won't force it anymore. You don't like the daughter of the Wang family chaebol I told you about before." Forget it, I heard that the youngest son of the Shen family is back, and you also know that the Shen family has always been on good terms with our company, it seems that you are quite satisfied with him... "
Shen Xingsui searched for a long time but couldn't find it. Just when he was about to give up, he passed by a room and heard the conversation inside, which was somewhat familiar, so he stopped unconsciously.
Mr. Fu continued: "If you think it's not bad, you can get in touch with Shen Xingsui more."
Shen Xingsui was taken aback, isn't this Mr. Fu
What does he mean by this...
Because he didn't hear everything, Shen Xingsui was nervous and a little bit anxious. He never dared to mention the marriage contract with Fu Jinxiao, but he didn't know what the best actor was thinking.
then
Sure enough, a familiar voice sounded in the room, it was Fu Jinxiao's voice, cold, as if smiling: "Father even planned this?"
Mr. Fu said, "Aren't you willing?"
"Do you know what I hate about you the most?" Fu Jinxiao raised his eyelids and looked at him. The man sitting on the sofa was very imposing, and looked at Mr. Fu with hostility: "What you think is what you think? I It is not your turn to intervene in the matter, and as for my marriage, it is absolutely impossible to influence it because of the marriage contract you made, understand?"
Boss Fu choked completely.
He now fully understands that his child is no longer what he used to be, and he is no longer someone he can control at will.
Shen Xingsui's body outside the door also froze. He still had some fantasies that he shouldn't have before, and he has fallen back at this moment. Sure enough, marriage contracts are always funny. How can a person who is bound by the rules stay with him because of a marriage contract
Shen Xingsui, what are you thinking.
He left as if sleepwalking, turned a corner, and found what he had been looking for all along, the old lady's room.
The attendant at the door was helping the old lady to go out. The old man was also very happy when he saw Shen Xingsui: "Sui Sui, why are you here? Are you here to find grandma?"
Shen Xingsui didn't know what to say, but he nodded stiffly.
The old lady sensitively noticed that his complexion was not good: "What's wrong with you?"
"It's nothing." Shen Xingsui forced a smile. He seemed to have remembered something, and said again: "Grandma, I have something to tell you."
Grandma looked at Shen Xingsui suspiciously, feeling that something was wrong, but she didn't refuse, she just asked in a gentle voice, "Okay, come in first."
Shen Xingsui didn't enter, so he just took out the seal he had accepted before, put it back in the old man's hand respectfully, and bowed deeply: "I'm sorry, grandma, I've thought about it carefully, this seal is too precious , I can't take your things."
The old lady quickly supported him: "Sui Sui, didn't grandma say that you deserve it."
Shen Xingsui shook his head and said: "No, this is not what I deserve. I think the owner of this seal should be someone who is more suitable than me and has more reasons to accept it. I understand your kindness, but now, I really have no reason, and I don't deserve to have it, thank you for your kindness, I'll go first."
The old lady looked stupidly at Shen Xingsui bowing to her again and then left. She was fine before, how could everything have changed.
…
Just as she was wondering, the old lady turned a corner and just happened to meet Fu Jinxiao who had finished arguing with his father. Fu Yingdi didn't look too good, but he still saluted when he saw grandma.
The old lady waved to him: "Come here, let me ask you something."
Fu Jinxiao asked, "What's wrong?"
"You... You and Suisui, did you have a fight?" The old lady hesitated: "Or, he dumped you."
