In the era of fetal wear, she became the first socialite in Hong Kong
Chapter 102 Chinese Phoenix Crown and Castle
Although Fu Ziyan was a little surprised that her grandfather came so early, as Shek O is some distance away from Victoria Peak, she reacted very quickly.
A sweet smile quickly appeared on her face. "Of course not, I also like Grandpa's gift very much, so what is the gift? I am looking forward to it!"
Fu Mingzhang pointed at his granddaughter, and the assistant behind him opened the gift box, revealing a set of exquisite jade hairpins.
"In ancient times, girls were considered adults when they reached the age of fifteen. Of course, our Ti Ti doesn't have to reach adulthood at fifteen, but we can keep it for fun. Just like you said before, a sense of ritual."
The jade hairpin is flawless white and finely carved, and the gold hairpin is decorated with various gems, which is gorgeous and exquisite. The whole set of hairpins is made of very expensive materials.
"Thank you, Grandpa, they are so beautiful!" Fu Ziyan smiled with surprise. She has always liked Hanfu hairpins, and this set of hairpins is even more beautiful and suits her taste.
Although there are not many occasions in modern society where this set of accessories can be used, she is happy just to keep it in a jewelry box.
Fu Mingzhang looked at his granddaughter, whose smile was genuine, and said with a smile, "This is not the end. The real gift is the one on the bottom layer of the box."
Fu Ziyan initially thought that the box was over-packaged, but she didn't expect there was a gift at the bottom of the box. She couldn't help but look forward to it.
Grandpa did not disappoint her.
This is a gilt dragon and phoenix crown inlaid with kingfisher feathers and gems from the Qing Dynasty royal family. The emerald feathers dance lightly, the dragon pattern hovers, and the phoenix pattern spreads its wings. It combines exquisite filigree craftsmanship with kingfisher feather inlay technology, making the various gems dazzling, vivid and gorgeous.
Fu Ziyan gasped. It was truly beautiful. The Chinese phoenix crown was even more exquisitely crafted and beautiful than Western crowns.
Fu Mingzhang frowned slightly. "This was the dowry of Princess Gulun of the Qing Emperor Qianlong. However, princesses in the Qing Dynasty were not free and happy. Unfortunately, in previous dynasties, phoenix crowns were all made from the earth. So I can only give our Princess Titi a phoenix crown from the Qing Dynasty. It has never been buried in the earth and is cleaner."
Fu Ziyan is very satisfied. It doesn’t matter if the princess of the Qing Dynasty is unhappy. She is super happy with this princess crown!
Her eyes curved, her smile dimpled, her voice sweet and full of joy, "I love it very much. Thank you for the gift, Grandpa. The Chinese princess crown is so beautiful!"
Fu Mingzhang chuckled and nodded, the fine lines at the corners of his eyes deepening, "As long as Ti Ti likes it."
As he was speaking, Tan Wu also took out the gift that Fu Qiyuan had placed in the study.
Fu Ziyan's gaze quickly shifted over. It was a seemingly ordinary document?
Not!
It was clearly a property transfer document for a castle estate in England. Below the document was a description and photos of the castle estate. The castle, built in the 19th century, was a typical Gothic-style building with a long history and luxurious decoration.
Yeah, castle!
Fu Ziyan's eyes sparkled, and she said joyfully, "Thank you, Dad!"
Fu Qiyuan nodded, looking at his daughter gently, and said lightly, "It's very suitable for vacation. If you go to school in the UK in two years, this will be a great place to hold a party."
"With a crown and a castle, our Ti Ti really is a little princess." Fu Mingzhang teased Ti Ti with a smile, then asked, "Have you decided to go to school in the UK?"
Next semester, Titi will enter the fourth year of junior high school, and the choice of university is indeed imminent.
Fu Qiyuan nodded. "London Business School is good. Although it was founded in 64 and has only been around for seven years, it has a great reputation in Europe and is attended by many children of celebrities and nobles."
"Are you talking about the Young Eagles program they've been running for the past two years?" As everyone knows, London Business School only admits graduate students. Actually, that's not the case. There's a Young Eagles program, and only people with a certain background know about it, but knowing about it doesn't guarantee admission.
The Young Eagles Class recruits undergraduate students who can be admitted with letters of recommendation and celebrity and aristocratic background. The review is strict, with only thirty students in each class. It is a veritable "heir" class, and basically after graduation, they are guaranteed to be "outstanding alumni."
Fu Qiyuan chuckled, "I've been quite active in the UK over the past two years, so it shouldn't be difficult to get a letter of recommendation."
Fu Mingzhang nodded, "As long as you know your limits."
In fact, several business schools in the United States are also very famous, but you can make a lot of European connections at the London Business School. After all, Hong Kong is currently managed by the United Kingdom. Fu Ziyan will return to Hong Kong after graduation. In this area, European connections are more useful.
Moreover, Fu Qiyuan had taken his daughter on business trips to the United States frequently in recent years, and had already made a large network of established American contacts. If necessary, they could study for a master's degree in the United States.
Of course, another reason is that the British pound has depreciated in recent years. Fu Qiyuan took the opportunity to invest in many industries in the UK, and Fu Ziyan's study in the UK was a good opportunity to observe and practice.
As for racial discrimination, it was actually the same in Britain and the United States. With the foundation laid by Fu Qiyuan and Fu Ziyan's glittering wealth, she could move freely in British high society.
Fu Ziyan didn't care whether she went to school in the UK or the US; the round-trip flight was long anyway. She couldn't possibly stay in Hong Kong to study; after all, university was a great way to build connections. Since her father thought the UK was a better choice, she could go.
Listen to your parents, your big dad will never let her down.
After receiving the gifts from her father and grandfather, Fu Ziyan went back to her room to change clothes.
Although it's my own home, who knows if anyone will come to visit later? It's not good to wear pajamas.
Miss Fu, you still pay a lot of attention to your image!
Fu Ziyan changed into a light blue lace cheongsam dress with a Ruyi pattern, a custom-made Patek Philippe pearl strap watch on her wrist, and a jade auspicious cloud pendant around her neck. She looked rich and charming, with both the charm of a girl and the temperament of a wealthy woman.
But this time, Fu Ziyan guessed wrong.
By lunchtime, no one came to visit, obviously knowing that Fu Ziyan didn't want a big celebration. However, birthday gifts came in waves from various families.
Fu Ziyan had no interest in opening the gifts, as it was her custom every year on her birthday. She just told Ah Hong to compile and list them in a book for future return gifts.
Lunch was simple yet heartwarming. Afterward, she sat and chatted with her father and grandfather for a while. In the evening, Fu Ziyan drove out in the "Xingchen Car" she had customized last year.
The highlight is the party with friends!
A blue and purple diamond-studded racing-style custom sports car, protected by a number of cars, drove from Barker Road in Mid-Levels to Repulse Bay.
The party was held at Fu Ziyan's house in Repulse Bay. The tenant moved out in the middle of last year, and she thought about it and decided not to rent it out again. Instead, she asked Uncle Tan to send someone to renovate and replace the soft furnishings, so that she could use it for holiday parties. The renovation was just completed at the end of last month, and this was the first time it was officially used.
The entire house was not demolished and rebuilt, only part of it was renovated, so the speed was quite fast, much faster than the speed at which her father built the mansion on the land he bought on the top of the mountain in early 66.
Back to the point.
Miss Fu's birthday party was a party for which everyone was invited. Almost everyone in her small circle came. It was fun and lively with a large crowd, and it was also a way to maintain her connections.
There are all kinds of luxury cars parked in front of the house, including customized children's sports cars, normal luxury cars, and modified customized motorcycles.
Motorcycle modification was very popular in the United States in the past few years, and several people who studied in the United States naturally brought this trend back to Hong Kong.
Unlike a formal dinner or a themed afternoon tea party for socialites and daughters, tonight's birthday party is more carnival-like and full of fun.
Because it was a gathering of young people, Fu Ziyan did not greet guests outside the door, and some of the young ladies she knew arrived earlier than her.
They were dressed casually, some in exquisite little dresses, and some in denim suits with dreadlocks. As soon as they saw Fu Ziyan, they rushed over.
"Yan Yan, long time no see, happy birthday!"
"Yeah, he's nowhere to be seen since summer vacation started. He doesn't even come out to any of the parties."
Fu Ziyan was helpless. "There's nothing I can do. The older I get, the more things I have to do. I have several teachers at home waiting to teach me, and my schedule is completely full."
It is said that being the heir to a wealthy family is not easy. What she inherited was only her father's private property. If she were the heir to the Fu family, being watched by so many elder shareholders, the pressure would be even greater, and she would definitely have to learn so much that she would be breathless.
However, no matter how difficult it is, she has to bite the bullet and study. Not to mention her father's private property, just for the various industries that the APP has given her, she has to work hard to improve herself. It is easy to build an empire but difficult to maintain it!
As they were talking, Xi Qingqing also arrived.

Note:
The Eaglet Class is a private institution!
I didn't know that London Business School only accepted postgraduate students, and I was torn about whether to change it. But I still felt that London Business School was more impressive, so I set up an undergraduate program privately.
Anyway, it's a parallel world, so please be gentle when cursing ^w^
