After Zhou Niannian left, Mu Ruo looked at Fu Jianzhi with some bad intentions: "Mr. Fu just touched me again, do you need to wash your hands again? Oh, by the way, you seemed to have kissed my ear, isn't that -"

Fu Jianzhi said indifferently: "So you are so good at talking."

Muruo raised his eyebrows proudly: "Hmm."

"One more word——"

Mu Ruo knew that his next sentence would be "twenty million" again, so he quickly pretended to close his mouth and made a fake movement like zipping a zipper.

Fu Jianzhi looked at her actions and curled the corners of his lips coldly.

Muruo: "The one who came in without knocking just now is——"

"Zhou Yanhui's niece, Miss Zhou Niannian of the Zhou family." Fu Jianzhi reminded Mu Ruo, "Be careful of her."

He and Muruo were originally a deal.

The two got married not because Fu Jianzhi liked her.

So Fu Jianzhi is only responsible for paying the money.

If Muruo was bullied or something happened, she had to solve it on her own.

Fu Jianzhi was too lazy to get involved.

This reminder is the most we can do.

Mu Ruo knew clearly: "Don't worry, Mr. Fu, I will fulfill my responsibilities."

By noon, Fu Jianzhi's grandfather came back.

Mr. Fu has silver hair and a serious face. He looks to be in his seventies. Standing next to Zhou Yanhui, the two of them don't look like a couple at all, but rather like father and daughter.

Zhou Yanhui looks to be in her early forties, but she is actually already fifty years old.

Mr. Fu is nearly eighty years old, and they were an old man and a young wife back then, so there is indeed a big age difference between them.

Fu Jianzhi also has two younger uncles, both of whom were born to Zhou Yanhui. One is 23 years old and the other is 27 years old. Both of them are younger than Fu Jianzhi.

Although these two people are older than Fu Jianzhi, Fu Jianzhi is still the one who makes the decisions for the Fu family's company, and he has the final say.

After finding out about the messy relationships within the Fu family, Mu Ruo also felt a little sad.

They are indeed a wealthy family - ordinary families really cannot develop such complicated relationships.

Mu Ruo transferred a red envelope of 20,000 yuan to the maid who cleaned the courtyard.

The maid was grateful.

She didn't expect that she had only told the eldest young master's wife about the situation of the Fu family and the other party would be so generous.

Compared to the mean old lady and the spoiled eldest daughter of the Zhou family, the lady the eldest young master married really seemed easy to get along with.

Although working for a wealthy family, we are all human beings, and even servants hope to be given a little respect.

Mu Ruo lowered his voice: "By the way, besides these, can I also ask about the situation of Fu Jianzhi's parents?"

It is strange that Fu Jianzhi is so young but his parents are not alive.

Mu Ruo knew that she shouldn't ask about Fu Jianzhi's privacy casually.

However, she was worried that others would bring up these things, of which she was completely unaware.

The maid was startled and her face changed.

Mu Ruo frowned: "Can't I ask these questions?"

The maid looked around and said to Muruo, "Madam, the eldest young master's parents passed away many years ago, when he was very young. No one in the Fu family dares to mention this, so you'd better not mention it."

Muruo was stunned for a moment.

Is there no one in the Fu family who dares to mention it?

Ok.

Since it concerns Fu Jianzhi's privacy, Mu Ruo was unwilling to ask more questions.

Muruo nodded: "Okay."

After saying this, Mu Ruo was about to go back to her room. Halfway there, she met Zhou Niannian.

To be honest, Zhou Niannian is a beauty.

If Xia Wanwan were in front of Zhou Niannian, she would probably not even be worthy of carrying shoes for such a beauty.

Zhou Niannian was wearing a white dress and had long straight black hair draped over her shoulders. Her face was quite pretty, but her almond-shaped eyes were red and swollen, and she looked at Muruo in an unfriendly manner.

Muruo had already prepared himself mentally.

After all, 20 million... such a sky-high price is not so easy to get.

"I've been thinking about this these days." Zhou Niannian walked in front of Muruo. She deliberately lowered her voice and looked at Muruo with hostility in her almond-shaped eyes. "Is Jian Zhi blind to fall in love with a woman of your background?"

Mu Ruo turned his head and looked at Zhou Niannian.

If what she inquired was correct, the Zhou family was not as prominent as it is now at the beginning, right?

At the beginning, the Zhou family was even inferior to the Mu family. The young and beautiful Zhou Yanhui married Mr. Fu, who helped Zhou Yanhui's brothers in various ways. Only with such a powerful backer did the Zhou family gradually rise, and Zhou Niannian was able to become a noble eldest lady.

Zhou Niannian is used to being domineering in the Zhou family and habitually regards herself as the eldest daughter of the Zhou family.

She looked at Muruo with a scrutinizing gaze, her tone full of contempt: "If I'm not mistaken, you are the legendary green tea bitch, right? You grabbed Jian Zhi by some trickery, and you've been unwilling to let go ever since, right? You look pitiful on the outside, but you're actually full of schemes."

Muruo: “…”

Mu Ruo had just arrived and had a conflict with Zhou Niannian on the first day, which would definitely cause resentment among the elders in the family.

If Mu Ruo guessed correctly, Zhou Niannian came to her deliberately to provoke her, most likely wanting to make trouble in front of Mr. Fu.

At this moment, Muruo caught a glimpse of a tall and elegant figure not far away from the corner of his eye.

--All right.

Since Zhou Niannian said that she is a green tea, then I will give her a handful of green tea.

Mu Ruo touched her forehead with her hand: "Miss Zhou, I feel a little dizzy."

Zhou Niannian sneered: "You want to act pitiful in front of me? This trick won't work on me."

Mu Ruo held her forehead with her hands, and she looked truly pitiful, with a kind of delicate beauty like a pear blossom in the rain.

Mu Ruo walked towards Fu Jianzhi, and in front of Zhou Niannian, she staggered twice like a willow in the wind, and suddenly staggered into Fu Jianzhi's arms.

Her eyes suddenly turned red: "I'm sorry, Jian Zhi, I talked to Miss Zhou for a few words and suddenly I had a headache."

Zhou Niannian was stunned.

She just said that Muruo was a green tea girl, and she said that on purpose in a fit of anger in order to anger her and attract the attention of the elders of the Fu family.

——I didn’t expect Muruo to be such a green tea!

Fu Jianzhi put one hand around Mu Ruo's shoulders, and his handsome face showed just the right amount of doting: "You're so delicate, let's go back to the room and rest first."

Zhou Niannian opened her mouth.

She didn't know what she had done wrong, but was forced to eat a mouthful of dog food here.

Zhou Niannian looked at Fu Jianzhi with some grievance.

She and Fu Jianzhi have known each other for so many years, and she has liked Fu Jianzhi since she could remember.

But there was never a single time when I saw Fu Jianzhi treat me with such an attitude.

Every time Zhou Niannian talked to him, she was met with his cold attitude.

Zhou Niannian involuntarily stood in front of Fu Jianzhi and Muruo.

Fu Jianzhi's attitude towards her suddenly turned cold: "Excuse me."
