Chapter 51 - Suddenly Loosing Appetite
"I think the Old man invited you for one of the big fashion shows in the country because he knew your major, and wanted to give you a good exposure." Mrs. Qin said to Jia Li.
"Yes, it's true. He knows this exposure will be beneficial to you, so he invited you to it." Mr. Qin agreed with a smile.
"I know. Grandfather Fu is so kind to me." Jia Li said in response.
"When you go to the City, you can meet up with Li Huan, it will be easy to see each other since it is in the same City." Mrs. Qin said to Jia Li in a kind reminder.
"That will be inappropriate. She is going to the Fu's house, so how can she visit Li Huan from there?." Mr. Qin said with a frown.
"What is inappropriate, Li Huan is a friend, so what is so wrong about visiting a friend? And besides, the Old man wouldn't mind." Mrs. Qin protested.
"Even if the Old man wouldn't mind, but that action will question our upbringing. Jia Li, don't listen to your mother. Don't meet up with anybody after the event, just come home directly."
The argument ended with Jia Li's parents coming to an agreement that she wouldn't visit anybody, and come home directly after the event.
That same day, Old Mr. Fu called Jia Li's parents to speak to them directly about taking Jia Li for a week. He also assured them of Jia Li's safety.
The Old man felt that this would be a better step, and would also show respect to them.
Jia Li's parents were so happy and readily agreed with everything the Old man said to them. After the call, the couple was beaming with smiles, as if they had found a gold mine.
They even said to Jia Li. "The Autumn Fashion show is is a big show you will be glad you didn't miss. You are into Fashion and Designing, and your presence in this show will enlighten you more when you saw the creativity of the Top Designers in FJ Styles."
While this family of three was happy and talking about the Autumn Fashion show, Mr. Qin's Brother in-law was in a panic.
The Business he wanted to start up with his friend, turned out to have failed because he invested the money he was supposed to use to steady the business, which seemed like a good plan.
But the worse happened. It turned out that the investment he made with his friends, was a scam. All the money he had left, had been buried into the fake investment. He felt that his heart would stop beating the next minute.
Now, the loan sharks were on his neck. When the time reached for him to return the money to them, he didn't even have a penny to return, what devastating news.
And because of that, he hasn't been sleeping in his house, because he didn't want his wife to notice what was wrong with him.
His wide on the other hand thought that he was busy with the new business he was starting with his friends, and so didn't complain.
She noticed that he would only come back for breakfast and lunch, and then disappear again in the evening. He looked as if he had lost a lot of weight, so she became worried and asked about it, but he waved the question away.
"It's the stress of starting a new business."
"When the Business starts up, you won't be looking this haggard and tired again, eat more." His wife assured him by putting more vegetables and meat on his plate.
Glancing at the table filled with different kinds of expensive dishes meant for the rich, the man suddenly felt that his mouth was bitter, and he suddenly lost appetite for the food.
Thinking that his life was already on the line, he didn't know what to do. He has already delayed the repayment by a month and a half, what was he going to do?
A week to the Autumn Show, Fu Geming returned to the Fu Villa with his family, per agreement with the old Man.
When he came back with his family, there wasn't any enthusiasm from the servants, but they didn't dare to show it off so blatantly.
What the servants were thinking, was that the trouble maker was back, and there wasn't going to be Peace for a few days.
Of course, Fu ChunHua didn't know what the servants thought about her. She wasn't even in the mood to be happy, because Fu Hee her nemesis was still around, and wouldn't forget to take the chance to gloat on her.
The last time, she was forced to leave, and now that she has come back because the Old man allowed them to, she was sure that Fu Hee would make fun of her.
When Fu Geming arrived with his family, they only met Old Mr. Fu and Fu Hee. Fu Hua and Fu YingPei were in the company, while his brother, Fu Wang Lei, was busy with some military affairs, so hasn't been around for a few days now.
Fu Hee gave them a warm welcome, while the Old Man glanced at them and nodded in return to their greetings.
"Father, how is your health now?." Fu ChunHua asked with a fawning smile on her face.
"If you can't see that I'm healthy, are you wishing for me to suddenly fall I'll, so you can do as you like in this family?". Old General Fu asked sternly.
Fu ChunHua suddenly became afraid of his words. The worst part of it all was that she didn't even know how to refute her words.
Fu Hee felt gladdened in her heart with the atmosphere. It felt good seeing Fu ChunHua in a dilemma.
Seeing that the atmosphere was tensed, Fu Geming decided to speak up.
"Father please forgive her, she was only trying to say something nice after causing trouble last time."
'More like guilt-stricken.' Fu Hee sneered in her heart.
