In the era of fetal wear, she became the first socialite in Hong Kong
Chapter 263 "Local Specialties"
Chapter 263 "Local Specialties"
As soon as Fu Qiyuan came back, Fu Ziyan's attention was inevitably drawn away by her father. She immersed herself in discussions about investment and company management matters, or in making new fragrances with the high-quality spices her father brought back for her. She completely forgot about He Simian's pregnancy, which she had been curious about before.
But some things seemed as if they never happened unless Fu Ziyan asked about them.
When Meng Tiao knocked on the door, Fu Ziyan was leaning on the recliner, happily playing with a small bottle of perfume that had just been blended with new materials. When she saw Meng Tiao come in, she pressed the nozzle in her direction with a playful look.
As soon as Meng Tiao stepped into the door, she smelled a fresh and amazing fragrance, like the dew that awakens the trees, flowers and plants in the forest when the sky is still hazy in the early morning. It is fresh and elegant, moving freely among the trees, carrying the fragrance of various plants.
Fu Ziyan looked at her with a casual smile, "Does it smell good?"
Meng Tiao nodded and said seriously, "It smells good. Does it have a name?"
Fu Ziyan smiled softly, dimples rippled across her lips, and her voice was filled with lingering joy and pride: "A faint moon shines among the pines, its clear light still belongs to you. It's called Wei Yue Qing Guang."
"The name fits it perfectly."
"Like it?"
"I like it. Miss, can you give me a bottle?"
"Okay, I'll give you a bottle later." Fu Ziyan sat up straight, a teasing smile on her face. "Tell me, what do you want to see me about?"
Meng Tiao was speechless for a moment. It sounded like she was asking for help. But she was clearly an assistant, reporting to her boss normally.
"Editor-in-Chief Zhang said that a reporter from another tabloid took photos of Master Fu accompanying Miss He to the hospital for a prenatal checkup. They might appear in the newspapers in the next two days. He asked if we should suppress the photos."
Fu Ziyan sighed: "Are the bodyguards around Fu Zimu so low quality? They didn't even notice someone was secretly filming him. It seems I have to remind Third Uncle, otherwise it will be too late if he is kidnapped by the kidnappers."
"Even though Fu Zimu's bodyguards are unreliable and something went wrong, it doesn't matter. As a kind cousin, it's my duty to help him, don't you think?" Fu Ziyan smiled innocently, and it was almost as if "I am the kindest lady in the world" was written on her face.
Meng Tiao stroked the corner of her lips. She didn't believe that the young lady couldn't guess that this was intentional by Mr. Fu and Miss He, and it was not the bodyguard's fault.
She said seriously, "Miss, you're right. Master Zimu is definitely lucky to have a sister like you. I'll tell Editor-in-Chief Zhang right away to suppress the news."
Fu Ziyan smiled and waved her hand: "Go ahead, I'll have someone send you the perfume later."
When Meng Tiao opened the door and was about to leave, Fu Ziyan suddenly stopped her: "Hey, wait."
Meng Tiao stopped, turned around and waited for her signal.
"Send two people to find out about Li Qiongyu's recent situation," Fu Ziyan said with a smile, "After all, as a kind sister, I have to care about my future sister-in-law~"
Meng Tiao smiled in response, but she was already complaining in her heart that the eldest lady's acting was endless.
Despite all the complaints, Meng Tiao's work efficiency was still very high. She came back with the results before lunch the next day.
"Ms. Li has been on personal leave from the Social Welfare Department since the day before yesterday and has been staying at home for the past few days. However, she seems to be in good spirits and wears light makeup when going out. She doesn't look very sad."
Fu Ziyan raised an eyebrow, "Have you found out the specific reason for your personal leave?"
Meng Tiao smiled and said, "He said something happened at home and he needs time to adjust his mood."
Fu Ziyan's smile deepened. She knew about He Simian's pregnancy, and it seemed likely she also knew that Fu Zimu intended to publish this matter in the newspaper. Interesting, this sister-in-law is so smart.
"Such a smart girl, Fu Zimu is really lucky!" Fu Ziyan snorted, and the regret on her face was obvious.
Meng Tiao: ...
Although this is true, you don't have to be so blunt, Miss. He is your cousin after all.
Seeing Meng Tiao's expression, Fu Ziyan smiled and teased her: "Why do you look like that? Don't you feel any regret?"
Meng Tiao was helpless. She had chosen the boss she had watched grow up. What else could she do? Of course, she would say, "Miss, you are right. It is a pity for Miss Li."
"So... it's time for me to use the power of justice!" Fu Ziyan imitated the tone in the cartoon and solemnly recited the lines from "The Brave Youngsters", the animation promoted by Dream Building Company in the first half of the year. The smile in her eyes matched the brilliance of the box of diamonds in her hand, sparkling brightly.
Meng Tiao pursed her lips and smiled: "Miss, do you want to meet Miss Li?"
"We in the Justice Corps always uphold justice in secret and quietly. Haven't you seen 'Brave Youngsters'?" Fu Ziyan raised her eyebrow and teased her, "Assistant Meng, you have to keep up with the latest trends. A woman is a teenager until she dies~"
Meng Tiao lowered her head and chuckled: "Okay, I will catch up on my studies when I get back. I will always be a teenager."
It's terrible. When the eldest daughter was a minor, she was serious and rigorous in her work and had a strong aura. How come she became more and more naughty after she became an adult?
The eldest daughter could be willful, but she, as the chief assistant, could not. Quickly recalling Li Qiongyu's itinerary mentioned in the document, Meng Tiao smiled and continued, "Miss Li will attend the parents' meeting at Dexin Primary School at 4 o'clock this afternoon."
"I remember that orphanage I sponsored before. There was also a child with good academic performance who was admitted to this primary school?" Every year on her birthday or holidays, she would receive greeting cards or letters from the children in the orphanage. Occasionally, the letters would mention the current situation of some of the children she sponsored.
Meng Tiao nodded. Some things the young lady brushed aside, but she had to remember them. She collected information about the children in the orphanage every six months so she could report to her young lady. "Yes, Xu Niansheng is currently in Class 1, Grade 4. However, the orphanage is full of things to do, and even though the director is proud of his achievements, she doesn't usually have time to attend his parent-teacher meetings."
"I got one today. Come to think of it, I've never attended anyone's parent-teacher conference in my life." Fu Ziyan sighed and instructed Meng Tiao, "Give me a copy of Xu Niansheng's report card and hobbies later. How can a parent not understand their child?"
Although she wanted to meet Li Qiongyu by chance, since she was attending a parent-teacher meeting, Fu Ziyan did not want to be perfunctory. She had to at least understand the child's academic performance and preferences. After all, she was the child she sponsored in the name of her parents.
Meng Tiao responded. She was not surprised at what the eldest lady wanted to do.
Fu Ziyan casually took a diamond from the box and poked it, rolling it on the table. Seeing Meng Tiao still beside her, she raised her chin and gestured for her to choose. "Here, these are the local specialties that were just delivered. Pick one at random. Don't hesitate."
Meng Tiao twitched the corners of her lips. The eldest lady's tone sounded just like the cabbages freshly picked from the ground.
