In the era of fetal wear, she became the first socialite in Hong Kong

When Fu Ziyan and Lu Yan arrived at Li's house, several friends were already there.

Meng Liming took the lead in making a fuss, clamoring to see the birthday gifts prepared by Fu Ziyan and Lu Yan.

Lu Yan raised his eyebrows and chuckled, shaking his interlocked hands, his eyes full of smug cunning, "Yan Yan and I are together."

Everyone:......

Enough, enough, I know you are a couple, stop showing off, the sour smell of love can be smelled from ten miles away!

Fu Ziyan gave him a helpless look, then smiled faintly as she leaned over to take the small wooden box from Meng Tiao's hand and handed it to Li Zitao. "It's nothing special. I just happened to come across this lamb jade pendant while shopping, and I thought it would suit you very well."

Li Zitao is only one year older than Fu Ziyan and is born in the Year of the Sheep.

The lamb carved from mutton-fat white jade is not as docile as people tend to think. Its lively eyes, slightly raised hooves, and delicately carved wool all reveal a free and lively atmosphere.

Li Zitao took it with a curved lip. When he saw the lamb jade pendant, his whole body was filled with joy. "Thank you, Ayan. It's a very cute lamb. I like it very much."

Sensing Lu Yan's lingering gaze, Li Zitao quickly added, "Thank you, Lu, too."

Fu Ziyan felt a little embarrassed. How could Lu Yan, who was once a modest and gentle gentleman, become like this without anyone noticing?

It’s just... so embarrassing!

She pursed her lips and raised her clasped hands, "Lu Yan, my palms are so hot they're sweating."

Lu Yan quickly let go, but his eyes were filled with grievance when he looked at Fu Ziyan.

Lu Yan has red lips and white teeth. Although he is still young, he can already be called a handsome man with outstanding appearance.

Such a handsome guy whose eyes and heart were full of her, pretended to be pitiful to her pitifully, and Fu Ziyan almost broke down. Fortunately, someone laughed out loud, allowing Fu Ziyan to quickly retract her "pity" emotion.

The person who chuckled was none other than Meng Liming, who had made the most noise just now.

Seeing that the "beauty trap" was about to work, Lu Yan was interrupted by Da Meng's laughter. He could not help but turn around and glare at him angrily.

Meng Limin smiled and raised his hands to beg for mercy, "I know I was wrong, I admit it, and I ask for leniency!"

Then there was a burst of laughter.

Even Fu Ziyan was amused.

After playing around for a while, there was a sound of brakes outside the door, followed by a tall and straight middle-aged man in military uniform, with a righteous demeanor and a majestic aura.

The whole audience was silent.

Li Zitao quickly reacted and said in surprise, "Dad, you actually came home today!"

Fu Ziyan looked up and found that this was Li Quyi, or rather, her uncle Fu Qihuai.

Although he looks awe-inspiring, one cannot ignore the traces of time on his face. Only his pair of auspicious eyes, with their bright eyes, reveal the shrewdness and sharpness accumulated over the years.

His eyes are exactly the same shape as his grandfather's, yet there is an indescribable difference, not to mention the boy's clear and smiling eyes in the old photos.

If she hadn't carefully considered and compared him, Fu Ziyan would never have recognized that this was the high-spirited young man in her grandfather's old photo. They were completely different people.

At that moment, many thoughts emerged in Fu Ziyan's mind. She lamented that her uncle was so secretive, and she also imagined how sad her grandfather would be if he saw her uncle.

In terms of age, Uncle Fu Qihuai is only three years older than her father, but her father is graceful, gentle and elegant, as if he is in his early thirties; while the fine lines and scars on her uncle's face make him look ten years older.

Fu Ziyan's heart was in turmoil, but the scene before her did not stop.

Li Quyi lowered his eyes to look at his son and nodded calmly. Then, as if he had suddenly remembered something, his voice was cold but tinged with concern. "Is it your birthday today? Have fun."

Li Zitao didn't mind his father forgetting his birthday; he'd grown up accustomed to it, always busy with official duties. Not to mention his father's perpetually stern face, he chuckled and began to introduce them. "These are my friends. The others are old acquaintances, the children of several uncles, you know them all. These two are just new acquaintances, Fu Ziyan and Lu Yan, who just came to the mainland from Hong Kong to play."

Fu Ziyan curved her lips and politely greeted Lu Yan in unison, "Hello, Uncle Li."

Li Quyi nodded politely, his eyes passing calmly, seemingly impartial. But in reality, when he heard the name "Fu Ziyan", his heart paused.

Noticing that Fu Ziyan looked at him with undisguised respect and curiosity, Li Quyi understood...

The old man still misses him!

Li Quyi felt a pang of bitterness in his heart, and he spoke as if it were a casual greeting, "Fu? Fu Qiyuan, who generously donated grain during the famine, is your elder?"

Fu Ziyan's eyes lit up, with undisguised pride in them, "Yes, that's my dad."

Li Quyi's eyes softened, and without further ado, he simply instructed his youngest son, "Entertain your friends well and have a good birthday."

Then he went upstairs and walked into the study as usual, but sat on the solid wooden chair in a daze.

After all these years, is Dad still the same as before?

My younger brother, who was still a teenager when I left home, now has his own child, a very smart and cute little girl.

Over the years, from the overseas news he occasionally heard, he knew that the Fu family was thriving as before, and Yunzhi, who had grown up, was able to shoulder the responsibility and manage the family business very well.

During the two years of the famine, he had been delighted to learn of Yunzhi's generous grain donation, but he never showed his face. Just as he had promised his father, he would remain anonymous. From then on, he was no longer the eldest son of the Fu family, but simply a comrade from the mainland. He was responsible for his position and receiving the wealthy merchants who donated grain was not his responsibility while he was stationed in the southwest.

He was pleased and missed his homeland, but more importantly, he devoted all his attention to his motherland and devoted himself to his ideal cause. As he was busy, he gradually buried these emotions deep in his heart.

But he didn't expect that the old man was still thinking about his unfilial son and even told his little niece about the existence of his uncle.

Listening to the faint laughter coming from downstairs, Li Quyi regained his composure, curled the corners of his lips, and turned his attention back to the official business at hand.

It is enough for us to know each other. Under the current circumstances, it is best to maintain the status quo.

Fu Ziyan understood Li Quyi's desire to maintain the status quo.

But that didn't stop her from rushing home to share the good news with her grandfather, as she had almost finished having fun in the capital.

Lu Yan naturally followed his girlfriend's wishes in everything.

Just leave.

The next day, Fu Ziyan brought farewell gifts and went to say goodbye to everyone one by one.

When I came to Li's house to find Li Zitao, it was rare that Li Quyi, who was always busy, was also at home.

"Taozi, we are getting ready to leave. We are here to say goodbye to you today."

Li Zitao was shocked. "Is it that urgent? Summer vacation is still long, so we can stay here and play for a few more days!"

Fu Ziyan blinked. "Summer vacation is indeed long, but opportunities are rare. My dad must be super busy with the speech delivered by the US President last night and has no time to scold me."

Although it was an excuse, it was also part of Fu Ziyan's true thoughts.

Li Zitao didn't understand and his eyes turned to Lu Yan who was beside Fu Ziyan.

Lu Yan explained, "Yan Yan ran away from home and came to the mainland secretly. The US President made a historic announcement last night in a televised address, suspending the convertibility of the US dollar into gold. He also imposed a temporary (90-day) 10% surcharge on all taxable imports from the US."

Li Zitao paid no attention to the "television speech". His mind was entirely focused on the first half of Lu Yan's sentence, and he blurted out, "Are you so well prepared for running away from home?" When he ran away from home a few years ago, he didn't bring any thick clothes, and it was late autumn. The cold wind made him shiver as he returned home in the middle of the night, only to walk into a trap and receive a beating.

Fu Ziyan said confidently, "If you don't prepare more, you won't be able to go far!"

Li Zitao was speechless for a while, but then he felt that Fu Ziyan was right. After a few seconds' pause, he bowed and said "I admire you". Just as he was about to jokingly ask for some experience for later use, he saw his father coming down the stairs and he kept silent.

He kept silent, but Li Quyi stepped in and spoke in a deep voice, "Running away from home?"

Facing that cold face, although she knew that Li Quyi could not do anything to her, Fu Ziyan still turned off the microphone.

Li Quyi really wouldn't say anything to Fu Ziyan, but the same couldn't be said for Li Zitao.

Since running away from home at the age of twelve, Li Zitao once again received a self-criticism about "running away from home".

After Fu Ziyan burst into laughter, she felt a little uneasy as if she had hurt someone of her own kind.

The anxiety didn't last long. That afternoon, Fu Ziyan boarded a plane back to Guangzhou with her luggage and the original crew.

Her yacht is still docked over there!

However, in the end, Fu Ziyan and her group were still stuck in Guangzhou and were unable to return to Hong Kong.
