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

The gambling king was a man of great pride. Just because he mentioned the "orthopedics" issue briefly at his birthday banquet didn't mean he truly didn't know the details; he simply suppressed the information and delayed handling it. Just as Third Aunt, following the gambling king's instructions, warned her after the banquet "not to spread the news," the several in-laws who stayed behind for the banquet must have also been warned by the gambling king's family members.

Blocking messages is still useful.

When Fu Ziyan met Sunny the next day, Sunny didn't mention the matter at all. It seemed that he hadn't even heard of it.

After Sunny exchanged a few pleasantries with her, he got down to business. What he mentioned surprised her.

"I heard Selene went to the mainland last month. I wonder if she's interested in Zhuhai, which is above Macau? We could collaborate."

"You want to develop inland?"

It's no wonder Fu Ziyan was surprised. After all, the mainland was indeed a little poor at that time. Hong Kong and Macao businessmen were willing to invest in the mainland out of their patriotism. Most people, including mainland leaders, were not sure whether they could make a profit.

Sonny is not of Chinese descent, and it is surprising that a foreigner would think of this.

Fu Ziyan had read the information her housekeeper had gathered about Sunny, the young master of a family-run business, who had been facing numerous obstacles in the past two years. Before they met, she had assumed Sunny was planning to use her to negotiate a project in Hong Kong, potentially securing a spot in the company. She hadn't anticipated his intentions were in mainland China.

Sonny naturally didn't hide anything when asking someone for help. He said frankly, "Selene should already know that my situation at the company isn't very good. Many directors support my half-brother who just joined the company. The Black Sand Bay project involves many factions. Rather than putting all my energy into it just to smoothly 'share the fruits of victory,' it's better to take a step back."

Fu Ziyan smiled and shook her head. "But you should know that the mainland hasn't officially opened up yet, let alone land transactions. Southeast Asia is huge, and the market isn't limited to the mainland."

"You, the Hong Kong and Macau merchants, have all been to the capital and enjoyed state banquets. I believe liberalization is imminent. As for land sales, the policy at the beginning of the reform was biased, and anything not prohibited by law was allowed. With Selene's connections and abilities, there's probably little she can't accomplish. Selene," Sonny said, his expression becoming serious, and he spoke again in Chinese, "I offer my sincere sincere opinion. Please consider it."

Fu Ziyan raised her eyebrows. From the word "consider", it can be seen that he had indeed made preparations in advance, including his Chinese level, which he had brushed up in advance.

"Since you're so sincere, why don't you wait for the policy to come out and then go to Zhuhai in person to take a look?" Fu Ziyan curled her lips. "You said it too, but even though it's so close, if you want to develop a project, you have to actually conduct an on-site inspection. If you're still interested then, I'll consider it. How about that?"

"I'm not familiar with the mainland. Selene, can you show me your home country?"

Fu Ziyan was pleased by the word "mother country": "If I have free time, I would be happy to accompany you."

Anyway, she had already planned to conduct on-site inspections of several cities in Guangdong Province surrounding Hong Kong for investment purposes, and accompanying Sonny would be a good opportunity to do so.

"Thank you. I can wait for your free time."

After a pause, Sunny smiled and said, "The opening of Selene's Dreamland has shocked the industry with the speed of land reclamation and construction behind it..."

After talking about mainland investment and construction, the topic turned back to the construction industry itself. The former was for themselves, and the latter was for the family business.

Fu Ziyan calmly communicated with him: "The new machine is indeed very efficient. If Sunny is interested, he can also go to Europe and the United States to investigate..."

Although she didn't often get involved in Fu's business, she did keep abreast of its operations. Firstly, she held a 5% stake, so she'd at least read the financial statements to understand the situation. Secondly, her father was the chairman, so he'd often touch on some of the details when they spoke.

"..."

After finishing the business, Fu Ziyan walked out of the cabin and onto the deck of the yacht.

There was a cool breeze on the sea, a few clouds floating in the sky, the afterglow of the sunset fell on the sea, half of the river was rustling and half of the river was red. Although it was not a river, it was suitable for the scene.

"Selene, I prepared a kayak. Do you want to try it?" Sonny walked forward with a smile. He knew that Selene liked to play exciting sports, and the kayak was specially prepared for Selene.

Fu Ziyan smiled and thanked him, but refused: "Today is not a good day to play. Thank you for your kindness."

It wasn't her period; two years ago, the app had sent her birthday wishes, hoping her daily life wouldn't be affected by her period. She'd refused, simply because she'd only brought her bodyguards with her on this trip, not a marine safety officer. For safety reasons, she wouldn't go kayaking under these conditions.

Fu Ziyan replied with a "no." Sunny didn't mention kayaking anymore and automatically moved on to the next activity. He continued to warmly invite her, "Do you want to try sea fishing? I've prepared some fishing gear."

Seeing that Fu Ziyan did not refuse, Sunny immediately turned his head to signal the bodyguards behind him, and within two minutes the fishing tools were delivered to them.

Looking at the array of high-end American and Japanese-made sea fishing equipment arranged beside her, Fu Ziyan couldn't help but laugh. It was rare for Sunny to prepare such fine sea fishing tools. Naturally, the ones he prepared for her wouldn't be second-hand goods that had been used by others.

She actually doesn't like sea fishing that much. Even though she went sea fishing in Norway a few months ago, it was just a whim because she hadn't done it for a long time.

"Selene, do you want to compete to see who can catch the fish first?"

Fu Ziyan smiled: "Are you sure? My skills are very average."

Recounting her sea fishing experiences over the years, the one with her father was the best. Therefore, Fu Ziyan attributed the impressive results of her first sea fishing trip to beginner's luck.

Therefore, even if Sunny competed with her, his victory would be very unfulfilling.

"My skills are also average!" Sonny smiled. He thought it was a self-deprecating expression in Chinese culture. After all, according to the information he heard in the circle, Selene flew to Norway specifically for sea fishing in August.

Two hours later.

Looking at the fish bucket beside Selene, Sonny was silent for a moment.

So, why did he specially ask professionals to guide his sea fishing techniques these past two days?

Sonny's bodyguard, who was eager to learn Chinese, also muttered in his heart: Why use a sledgehammer to crack a nut? His sea fishing skills are so poor, why does he need such a top-notch tool!

Facing Sunny's surprised expression and the subconscious words of comfort, Fu Ziyan chuckled indifferently: "See, I told you my sea fishing skills are average."

Sonny: ...This is really normal.

Also, Chinese is really hard to learn. When to be modest and when to tell the truth?
