The three of them chatted for a while about the child. Then, Grandma Fu took Lin Yumeng's hand and said with a soft smile, "I want to hold a banquet in a few days to officially recognize Annie as my granddaughter. What do you think?"

Hearing this, Xia Anni's gaze fell on Lin Yumeng's face, and then she quickly lowered her eyes, not knowing what she was thinking.

In fact, she had mentioned this to Grandma Fu before. As long as Grandma Fu liked her, she would be willing to call her grandma whether she recognized her as a relative or not. There was no need to make it known to everyone.

Because she was not after the Fu family's money, she simply couldn't bear to give up the love and care that Grandma Fu had given her. She had felt too little of this purest love from an elder, so she was reluctant to let go.

Although Grandma Fu repeatedly emphasized that Fu Beichen and Lin Yumeng had both agreed to this matter, Xia Anni did not want a rift to arise between them because of her.

"Grandma, I..."

Xia Anni was about to say something when she was interrupted by Lin Yumeng.

"Grandma, of course we have to hold a family reunion banquet. Sister Annie is so outstanding, you can't just hide it from others."

Hearing her joking words, a hint of surprise flashed in Xia Anni's beautiful eyes.

The scene of causing trouble for Lin Yumeng before appeared in her mind. Although it was not intentional, it was also her fault.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but show guilt on her face, and opened her cherry lips slightly: "I'm sorry..."

Three soft and gentle words entered Lin Yumeng's ears.

Lin Yumeng smiled and nodded slightly to Xia Anni, indicating that she accepted the apology.

In fact, long before, Lin Yumeng had already sent people to investigate the relevant matters in detail.

The kidnapping incident at that time had nothing to do with her, and she didn't intentionally prevent Fu Beichen from going. It was his phone that was accidentally broken, so it wasn't her fault.

Although I had caused her trouble while eating and riding in the car, I had never done anything excessive.

Compared with Bai Wanqing, she is really very innocent. At least she has some dignity and has never seduced Fu Beichen blatantly. Instead, she saved his life.

So, she was willing to accept her.

"Grandma, Sister Annie probably didn't bring any winter clothes when she came back from abroad. New winter styles are in now. Let me take Sister Annie shopping."

Lin Yumeng was willing to get close to Xia Anni, which was what Grandma Fu wanted. She immediately took out two cards, gave one to each of them, and let them buy what they liked.

Over the years, Xia Anni has saved some money. She wanted to return the bank card to Grandma Fu, but was stopped by Lin Yumeng.

"Sister Annie, this is a gift from grandma. You can't let her down. If you see something you like, buy it. That way, grandma will be happy."

Grandma Fu smiled and nodded when she heard this. "Yumeng is right. As long as you are happy, Grandma will be happy too."

After she finished speaking, she set her sights on Xia Anni and said kindly, "From now on, you will be a member of the Fu family. I know you have the ability to support yourself, but the gift from the elders cannot be refused. Only if you accept it can I feel at ease."

Now that things have come to this, Xia Anni knew that if she refused again, she would seem ungrateful.

Her eyes, which were originally as clear as water, were now slightly red. She stared quietly at the kind and amiable Grandma Fu in front of her, and swallowed down the surging emotions with a moved expression.

"Thank you grandma~"

Her voice was a little hoarse because of being moved, but it still sounded nice.

Grandma Fu smiled and waved her hand, gently responding, "You're welcome, child. You're really welcome."

"I need to take a nap this afternoon, so you can go shopping with Yumeng. Although we are safe now, we still need to bring bodyguards with us. We must not let our guard down."

Listening to her instructions, Lin Yumeng and Xia Anni nodded at the same time.

Coming out of the old house, Xia Anni's hand holding the card was still shaking slightly.

Having lived for so many years, she has never felt the care from other elders except for the faint maternal love from her mother and the vague paternal love from her father who rarely appeared when she was a child.

The love and trust that Grandma Fu gave her was like a ray of sunshine that pushed through the thick clouds and shone on her, making her greedy.

Lin Yumeng had long noticed her feelings and attachment to Grandma Fu. Seeing the mist in her eyes, she knew that she must be very touched.

In order to make her less sentimental, Lin Yumeng found a new topic after getting in the car.

"Sister Annie, I heard your boss is pursuing you?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Xia Anni's expression suddenly changed, and her originally misty and watery eyes were filled with anger.

"What the hell! He's just a Zhou Pa Pi."

Forehead?

Seeing Xia Anni's excited reaction, Lin Yumeng couldn't help but be stunned.

How is this different from what I expected? Didn't Fu Beichen say her boss was pursuing her? Why does she look like she has a grudge against her boss?

She thought to herself: Did I stir up a hornet's nest?

Fu Beichen was right. Nan Zhengquan was indeed pursuing Xia Anni, but his method of pursuit was a little strange.

Not only was she not allowed to resign, but she was also tricked into paying a sky-high compensation. There was no way Xia Anni could be happy!

In Xia Anni's impression, they met very rarely and didn't even say a few words.

So she always felt that Nan Zhengquan was just teasing her. With his status, he could have any woman he wanted, so how could he fall in love with her?

It's not that she is self-deprecating, but because of her age and family background, no matter how beautiful she is, it doesn't matter.

The Nan family is wealthy and powerful, so it is impossible for them to agree to him marrying an older single woman with no family background.

What's more, she was still a little afraid of him. After all, Nan Zheng was well-known for his authority, and she had seen him punish people with her own eyes. The thought of that scene made her feel cold all over.

Violence, too much violence...

Although Nan Zhengquan is indeed very handsome, he has not had a woman around him for so many years. He is usually a man of few words and likes to do things. No matter how you look at it, he must have some quirks.

Faced with her sudden anger, Lin Yumeng was a little confused, but at the same time curious.

She leaned over and continued to ask with a puzzled look on her face, "Sister Annie, you called him Zhou Paopi, is it because he exploited you?"

Xia Anni glanced at her and saw that she looked very interested. After thinking for a moment, she told her the whole story. It was not a secret anyway.

Xia Anni spoke very angrily, and Lin Yumeng listened very carefully, even her eyes brightened up again and again.

When Lin Yumeng heard that Nan Zhengquan had set a trap for her and would not allow her to resign, she covered her mouth and laughed until tears came out.

This Nan Zhengquan is really a talented person. He has been patient for so long, and it turns out he was waiting for her here.

Recalling that Fu Beichen had mentioned before that Nan Zhengquan had successfully conquered the entire Nan family and was officially promoted to the head of the Nan family, Lin Yumeng couldn't help but speculate secretly.

Although Xia Anni has good working ability, she doesn't seem to be as cunning as him. If she encounters such a big-tailed wolf, she will probably be taken away.

If her guess was correct, he would come to pick someone up soon.

Next to her, Xia Anni was still angry about the 50 billion compensation; over here, Lin Yumeng had already started imagining the domineering CEO idol drama.

The male lead is Nan Zhengquan and the female lead is Xia Anni.

……

Before they knew it, they arrived at the bustling central shopping mall.

Grandma Fu had called Fu Beichen a long time ago. When Fu Beichen heard that they were going shopping, he immediately arranged bodyguards on every floor of the central shopping mall.

Together with the four bodyguards around Lin Yumeng, it is enough.

Lin Yumeng was familiar with the central shopping mall, so she took Xia Anni directly to the most popular women's clothing store.

Whenever this store releases a new style, it will be sold out within two days. Business is extremely good.

When they arrived, the store was full of people and the staff were too busy to handle it, so the customers had to make their own choices.

Looking at the people queuing at the door of the fitting room, Xia Anni couldn't help but frown.

It is obviously a high-end luxury brand, but it feels like shopping at a vegetable market.

The popularity of this event was beyond her imagination.

Xia Anni didn't like crowded occasions, and was afraid that someone might accidentally bump into Lin Yumeng in the crowd, so she protected Lin Yumeng and walked towards other stores.

Lin Yumeng knew that she was usually a quiet person, and it was really inconvenient with so many people here and having to queue.

So she took Xia Anni to Fu Beichen's office and asked the manager to bring up all the new styles from the stores they often visited.

In less than twenty minutes, the manager had all the clothes delivered.

Seeing this, Xia Anni gave Lin Yumeng a thumbs up.

This was the first time she personally felt the power of capital.

No wonder so many people want to be rich. Isn’t the difference obvious?

In fact, this is only a small aspect. As long as Lin Yumeng is willing, these brands will be delivered to her door for her to choose. They will help her match clothes and jewelry, and there will be special people to help design her hair and makeup.

Many rich daughters and wives of wealthy families will choose such one-stop service before attending important banquets.

There is a cubicle in Fu Beichen's office, and Lin Yumeng urged her to go in and try on clothes.

Xia Anni didn't want to refuse her kindness, so she took her clothes and went to the closet.

In the cubicle, Xia Anni tried on new clothes one by one. Although someone helped to organize the clothes, she felt exhausted after trying on so many pieces. She had never been so tired even when working overtime.

In the past, when she went shopping, she would just buy whatever she liked and leave without spending much time choosing or trying anything on. But today, after all the hassle, she was exhausted.

But fortunately, I was able to choose a few beautiful clothes that suited her, so the trip was not in vain.

After choosing the clothes, Lin Yumeng took her to her own store to choose a set of jewelry as a gift for her to recognize her relatives.

Xia Anni looked at the jewelry worth millions in her hand and was a little dumbfounded.

I really don’t understand the world of rich people!

In the past, in order to buy a necklace worth more than 1 yuan, she mentally prepared herself for more than two months before she gritted her teeth and bought it.

Unexpectedly, Lin Yumeng gave her a set of jewelry worth several million without blinking an eye.

After leaving the jewelry store, they went to choose two sets of clothes for Grandma Fu to express their sincere feelings for the old lady.

Just when Lin Yumeng was about to choose clothes for Fu Beichen, a man who was covered tightly and wearing a hat and a mask suddenly rushed towards Lin Yumeng.

Peng Liang was quick-witted and kicked him away. The moment he fell to the ground, there was a flash of light, and Lin Yumeng saw the dagger hidden in his sleeve, and her face suddenly turned ugly.
