The day Fu Ziyan returned to Hong Kong, her father happened to be returning from the United States. Without hesitation, she directly instructed the driver to detour to the airport.

The plane's gangway was lowered, and to ensure safety, the bodyguards left the cabin first.

Fu Qiyuan, dressed in a black trench coat, stood tall and majestic, his posture graceful and his aura calm and reserved. He descended the stairs surrounded by his bodyguards and assistants. The assistant behind him seemed to whisper something, and Fu Qiyuan looked up at him, his eyes gentle.

When she met her father's gaze, Fu Ziyan curved her eyebrows and walked forward with a bright smile.

"Welcome home, Dad~"

Seeing Ti Ti's high spirits, Fu Qiyuan's lips curled up unconsciously, and he said softly, "Aren't you having fun in the mainland? Why did you think of coming to pick me up?"

"No matter how fun it is, it can't compare to my dad. I haven't seen him for almost 20 days. I miss you so much!" When Fu Ziyan wanted to be a caring and sweet girl, she was really sweet and well-behaved. The corners of her lips curled up slightly, her eyes were clear and bright, and she could speak coquettishly. "I heard that Dad was coming back, and I couldn't wait a moment~"

Even though he knew that his little rascal was just trying to coax him, Fu Qiyuan's heart was still soft as a mess.

His daughter is so well-behaved and cute.

The filter only lasted for a moment before Fu Qiyuan turned around and looked at his daughter with a raised eyebrow and a smile: "Titi is so well behaved, have you done anything bad again?"

Fu Ziyan subconsciously felt guilty and searched her memory to confirm that she had not done anything that her father had repeatedly forbidden her to do recently. She quickly opened her eyes wide and accused her father with confidence: "I've been very well behaved recently, how could Dad not believe me!"

She is really a good baby this time!

After all, there is no car racing in the mainland.

Fu Qiyuan felt relieved when he heard Ti Ti's confident words. It seemed that this kid really hadn't played those dangerous games recently. He nodded and smiled: "I believe you. Our Ti Ti is really great."

"That's right~" Fu Ziyan nodded confidently and seriously. She didn't think there was anything wrong with her father praising her for the words she used to coax Li Song and Li Yu yesterday.

Is there a problem?

Obviously not!

Fu Qiyuan chuckled softly and walked side by side with Titi to the car: "When did you arrive in Xiangjiang? Have you had lunch yet?"

As a father, he has actually been paying attention to his daughter's itinerary.

However, Fu Ziyan received the news yesterday that Jiqing's burial plot had been settled, and she immediately announced her intention to return to Hong Kong. Mu Mu was busy dealing with the final details of the Panyu County investment, and she had taken her two children to Orange Park for a trip, so she hadn't had time to call her father. Because of the time difference, by the time Fu Ziyan remembered, Fu Qiyuan was already on the plane, which led to the surprise pick-up at the airport today.

It’s almost two o’clock now, how could you not have eaten?

Fu Ziyan nodded. "I just arrived too. I had dinner with the city leaders before leaving. Where's Dad?"

The bodyguard bent down to open the car door, and Fu Qiyuan got into the car that was reserved for his daughter, while the other assistant bodyguards got into the airport pick-up car arranged by Guan Zaizhou.

"There's a chef on the plane," he replied casually, switching topics seamlessly. "Has the White Swan Hotel deal been finalized?"

Fu Ziyan shook her head helplessly: "There's no problem with the current process, I'm just worried that it will get stuck at some point later."

While top officials support it, this joint venture to build a high-end luxury hotel is a first, lacking explicit legal provisions and involving multiple departments. Some oppose it, calling it too bold; others, still reeling from the past decade, fear the policy's repercussions could reverberate; and some are waiting and watching...

"That's fine," Fu Qiyuan said with a soothing smile. "Shouldn't we have made some preparations before we decided on this investment? It's normal for them to have concerns about doing it for the first time. You can take this opportunity to get to know the various departments, which will make it easier for you to invest in other industries later."

Being the first crab to crawl across the river by climbing on stones naturally has both advantages and disadvantages.

Fu Ziyan sighed softly: "This is the only way."

There was nothing she could do but wait. If there was any problem, she would just grind. Fu Ziyan never thought of giving up. She was determined to grab the first bite of this lucrative pie in the mainland hotel industry!

She was naturally open-minded, and although she could occasionally be a bit spoiled and stubborn about small matters, she didn't dwell too much on established facts that couldn't be changed. This was true whether it was the shock of discovering she had seamlessly transitioned from her previous life into a new one twenty years ago, or the sudden passing of her loving parents when she was eight.

Compared with those two, the current construction difficulties of the White Swan Hotel are simply not worth mentioning.

"Look at the bright side. I had a great time in Panyu."

When she mentioned Panyu, she wanted to share her happy daily life with her father. But she paused and suddenly thought: "Dad, should we go home first or go to Shek O?"

After returning from travel or business trips, she and her father would go to Shek O to see her grandfather.

"Go to Shek O." Fu Qiyuan pressed the button to raise the partition and instructed the driver in the front seat.

Fu Ziyan nodded: "Grandpa must miss me~"

She wants to share all the photos she brought back with her grandfather!

When Fu Ziyan and her father arrived at Shek O, Yu Minhong was getting up with Huo Yiran and preparing to leave.

Seeing his second uncle and cousin, Yu Minhong was stunned for a moment, then smiled and greeted: "Uncle, Yanyan, good afternoon. Grandpa just mentioned that you were not in Hong Kong. What a coincidence that you are all back."

Huo Yiran also followed suit and called them "Uncle" and "Sister Yanyan". She and Yu Minhong were an engaged couple, so there was nothing wrong with calling them that.

Fu Qiyuan nodded, his tone calm but indifferent: "Just arrived not long ago."

He has always been busy with work. Apart from taking care of and educating his own daughter, he has little contact with his nephews and nieces.

Compared to the three people who greeted each other politely, Fu Ziyan, who had a good relationship with her cousin and future cousin-in-law and often came to the old house in Shek O, was much more at ease.

She just smiled and called out, then trotted towards Fu Mingzhang with a smile, her tone filled with the pampered indulgence she had received: "Grandpa, I'm back. Did you miss me?"
