Lu Beichen didn't even have breakfast and walked out of the restaurant directly.

Seeing this, Xia Wanwan hurriedly followed: "Beichen! Beichen! Wait for me!"

Lu Beichen paused and stopped instantly.

Xia Wanwan felt very aggrieved: "I haven't eaten yet, why did you come out like this?"

Lu Beichen had a gloomy face and said nothing.

When the two were together, most of the time, it was Xia Wanwan who coaxed Lu Beichen.

After all, Lu Beichen is the president and the eldest son of the Lu family. If Xia Wanwan doesn't support him, there will be many other women who are willing to support him.

Xia Wanwan felt very aggrieved: "Are you still unable to forget Mu Ruo? Are you jealous when you see Mu Ruo having dinner with her husband?"

Lu Beichen snorted coldly: "No."

"Then what do you mean?" Xia Wanwan's eyes instantly turned red. "I know I'm just a substitute for Muruo. If you like Muruo, go back and find her."

Looking at Xia Wanwan's pitiful appearance, Lu Beichen felt heartbroken instantly.

——Mu Ruo, that woman, is fickle-minded. What's so good about her?

The Xia Wanwan in front of him is the one who deserves his love.

Besides, Xia Wanwan is not much worse than Muruo, and is better than Muruo in many aspects.

Lu Beichen felt empty inside, and quickly hugged Xia Wanwan in his arms: "Okay, don't be angry, let's go eat."

------

Mu Ruo stared at Lu Beichen's disappearing back, pretending to be lost.

No matter what, in front of Fu Jianzhi, even if she had to pretend, she had to pretend that she liked Lu Beichen.

Fu Jianzhi smiled and said, "Is he the man you like?"

Muruo nodded: "We have known each other for many years."

"Very average." Fu Jianzhi commented pointedly, "Madam is very beautiful, but her taste in men is very poor."

Muruo: “…”

Muruo wilted.

When other men comment on Lu Beichen, they would also say "Toads comment on humans, losers comment on handsome guys."

But what Fu Jianzhi said about Lu Beichen being ordinary seemed quite reasonable.

After all, Fu Jianzhi himself is far superior to Lu Beichen in both appearance and status.

However, the fact that Fu Jianzhi could discuss these things with her with a smile was enough to show that Fu Jianzhi really had no interest in her.

No wonder in the original text, Muruo, Fu Jianzhi's wife, was killed by Lu Beichen and Xia Wanwan, but Fu Jianzhi was still able to promote Lu Beichen to work for him without batting an eyelid.

After finishing breakfast, Fu Jianzhi stood up and said, "Let's go."

Muruo followed him into his black Bentley.

Fu Jianzhi drove all the way and didn't talk to her.

Muruo could see that he behaved elegantly to outsiders and was gentle and polite to ladies.

But there are always moments that reveal his cold nature.

Half an hour later, we arrived at the Fu family.

Mu Ruo fell asleep in the car without realizing it. The air-conditioning in the car was too strong and she felt a little uncomfortable. She opened her eyes hazily.

Fu Jianzhi parked the car and opened the door: "Come out."

Muruo followed him out.

At this moment, Muruo realized how extraordinary the Fu family was.

Fu Family Villa is located by the mountains and the water, as if it has stepped out of a traditional Chinese ink painting, exuding a strong cultural heritage and unique temperament. The exterior walls of the villa are constructed with natural stone and logs, with deep colors and clear textures, reflecting the texture and solemnity of years of precipitation.

She followed Fu Jianzhi into the courtyard, and the first thing that caught her eye was a screen wall imitating the characteristics of the Ming and Qing dynasties. The courtyard was full of winding paths, with changing scenery, rockery, flowing water, green bamboo and green pines, creating a Jiangnan garden landscape that was "man-made, but seemed to be created by nature." Flowers of all seasons surrounded a clear fish pond, where koi fish swam leisurely, creating a harmonious combination of movement and stillness.

Mu Ruo walked beside Fu Jianzhi in a cheongsam, which matched well with the surrounding environment.

"Mr. Fu, I——"

"Call me by my first name in front of others."

Fu Jianzhi interrupted her.

Mu Ruo quickly changed the topic: "Fu Jianzhi, I'm not very familiar with the people in your Fu family."

Fu Jianzhi smiled and said, "You forget so much? We only came here once last month, and the people who came this time are the same as last time."

Muruo: "Is that so? Yes, we came here last month."

It is impossible to write about such trivial things in the original text.

Mu Ruozhen didn’t know the specific events that happened to the original owner last month.

Fu Jianzhi looked at her guilty expression and his eyes darkened.

The last time he and Muruo came here was when they got married.

Mu Ruo indeed didn't know many people in the Fu family.

But teasing her is like teasing a kitten on the street, which is quite interesting.

The servants of the Fu family have come over. They are all wearing uniform black clothes and look very formal. They called out "Young Master" very politely.

Mu Ruo felt like they were acting when they spoke, and she doubted whether they would call her "Eldest Young Madam" like in the TV series.

Fortunately, there was no such awkward plot. These people called her Madam just like Butler Li.

Mu Ruo followed Fu Jianzhi inside.

The interior makes extensive use of typical Chinese elements such as hollow flower windows, wooden carved beams and columns.

A gorgeous palace lantern is hung from the ceiling of the high-ceilinged living room. The lampshade woven with gold threads emits warm and quiet light, which falls on the mahogany furniture. Every piece of decoration reveals exquisite craftsmanship and profound historical accumulation.

On the wall hang scrolls of calligraphy by famous calligraphers, the air is filled with the scent of ink, displaying the elegant demeanor of this scholarly family.

A woman in her forties wearing a black cheongsam was sitting on a chair with a cup of tea in her hand. A young girl in a white dress was standing next to her.

Mu Ruo looked at the woman and guessed that she should be Fu Jianzhi's mother.

"Jianzhi, you're back." Zhou Yanhui smiled warmly at Fu Jianzhi and glanced at Mu Ruo, "Oh, you're here too."

Mu Ruo could tell from her tone that this woman didn't like him.

Sure enough, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is always the most difficult to deal with.

Fu Jianzhi nodded coldly: "Where's Grandpa? I heard that he's not in good health recently."

"He went out fishing early in the morning and didn't come back until noon." Zhou Yanhui smiled, "Your room has always been cleaned, go back to your room and rest first. Mu Ruo, you and Jian Zhi are married, you must take good care of him and give him a son as soon as possible, understand?"

Mu Ruo wondered what kind of feudal family this was, but she had the money given by Fu Jianzhi in her hand, so she had to nod.

Fu Jianzhi's tone was still cold: "Ruoruo is still young, there is no rush to have a baby. Grandma, let's go back to the room and rest first."

Muruo was shocked.

She felt that this woman was too young to be Fu Jianzhi's mother.

I didn’t expect it to be Fu Jianzhi’s grandmother.

Are all wealthy families so good at maintaining their looks?

Before she could react, Fu Jianzhi held her hand.
