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

The theory of fate is quite interesting. Fu Ziyan had just decided to buy the animation company when a good opportunity soon appeared.

On New Year's Eve, the descendants of the Fu family gathered at the old house to celebrate the new year. This time, their second aunt, Fu Qiwen, who had not been seen at the previous family dinners, showed up.

Unlike the other aunts and uncles in the old house, the second aunt has a vibrant vitality, like a wild red rose. The first thing you notice about her is not her stunning appearance, but her tenacious and independent temperament.

She wore a black straight-cut dress suit, the waist-cinching cut flattering her slender figure. Large, round pearls adorned her earlobes, a black and white polka-dot silk scarf adorned her slender neck, and a pigeon-blood ruby ​​brooch adorned her chest. She carried a small black leather bag, looking like a sophisticated and confident urban beauty.

The corners of her lips curled up slightly, and there was genuine concern in her eyes, "Dad, it's been a long time since we last met. Are you all right?"

Fu Mingzhang nodded slightly, his tone calm, without any emotion, "I'm fine. It's rare that you came home for the New Year this year."

Fu Qiwen stood still, but an apologetic look was on her face. "I'm an unfilial daughter, I've been away from home all year round, but I should come back to see my parents."

After greeting the elders and siblings present one by one, Fu Qiwen bowed gracefully and turned to Fu Ziyan with a proper smile. "Hello, Ziyan. It's our first meeting. You are as smart and lovely as I imagined."

Fu Ziyan looked at her second aunt with curiosity in her eyes, but the corners of her lips curled up politely, "Thank you for the compliment."

Fu Qiwen smiled and nodded, then ended the greetings and turned around to give gifts to everyone.

When Fu Ziyan took the ballet dancer music box handed to her by her aunt, there was still a look of surprise in her eyes.

This aunt's straightforward and decisive nature seemed worlds apart from the socialites and ladies of Hong Kong. She was elegant and composed, impeccably polite, yet efficient, never wasting time on meaningless small talk.

The whole family gathered together and talked about recent current affairs. As small shareholders of Fu's Industrial, the fourth son of the second, third and fourth branches of the Fu family were very curious about Fu Qiyuan's opinions.

Fu Qiyuan remained calm. "After the banking crisis tightens credit, it will inevitably trigger a real estate crisis. Land prices, property prices, and rents will all fall. Therefore, the Fu family's real estate company will not only stop developing and selling properties, but will also take this opportunity to buy land cheaply, especially high-quality land."

Buy land from the government, buy buildings and land from real estate developers who are short of funds, and absorb a large amount of cheap land and properties.

As Fu Qiyuan's biggest admirer, Fu Qizhan spoke up almost as soon as Fu Qiyuan finished speaking, "Then I'll also take advantage of the low housing prices to buy some properties."

Fu Qiyuan looked up at his younger brother who looked quite like a Husky. His eyes, sparkling with stars, were very similar to those of Ti Ti who was sitting obediently beside him.

In a calm voice, with a hint of laughter, she reminded him, "Don't be impatient. Wait until the housing prices fall a bit."

Several ladies sitting quietly not far away also silently took note of Fu Qiyuan's words. They all had dowries and private property in their hands.

Just when they were all happy in their hearts, how much more wealth could they get from this wave?

My second aunt, who had been quietly leaning against the pillow, suddenly spoke up. "I have something to tell you. I have someone I love in the United States, and we're planning to get married."

You could hear a pin drop in the hall.

Hong Kong at that time was both open and feudal.

Young men and women can fall in love freely, but before they talk about marriage, both sets of parents will know about it. Then they will definitely meet with their parents and go through a series of marriage procedures.

It is even worse for wealthy families. Even if they are in a free love relationship, it is under the supervision of their elders. To put it bluntly, it is an alternative marriage that emphasizes equal social status. The parents of both parties know this long before the marriage is discussed.

Like Fu Qiwen, she settled in the United States for eight years after graduation. The Fu family has never arranged blind dates or marriages for her, and she is still unmarried at the age of 31 today. This is definitely a rare thing for a wealthy family.

But something even stranger is coming.

Fu Qiwen had not been home for five years. When she returned home for the Chinese New Year, she told her family that she was going to get married, but the Fu family had never heard of this before.

Fu Mingzhang frowned slightly, his voice deep, and he looked at Fu Qiwen sharply, "Explain clearly."

"I found Qi Fuan, and he can afford to marry me now." Fu Qiwen did not hide the joy in her eyes at all.

She finally found him, and her dream of wearing a wedding dress and marrying him finally came true.

The second concubine was completely shocked. She completely ignored her manners and slammed the table and stood up, "What did you say?"

Wasn't Qi Fuan the man she had driven away with 300,000 Hong Kong dollars? How could he appear in front of her daughter after all these years?

Fu Qiwen wore a flamboyant smile, and her eyes, filled with both pleasure and sarcasm, looked at the Second Wife. "I said I wanted to marry Qi Fuan. It's been thirteen years, and he's no longer the poor scholar you forced him to go abroad, powerless and helpless."

Only then did everyone know the reason why Fu Qiwen had not married for many years.

The second concubine's hands trembled with anger. She had indeed intended to marry Qiwen off to a wealthy family of equal status to give Qi Ze some support. But she had truly broken up Qiwen and that boy out of a loving mother's heart. How could that poor boy be worthy of Qiwen, the daughter of the prestigious Fu family?

Seeing this, Third Uncle Fu Qi Ze spoke up, "Second sister, after so many years, things have changed and people have changed. Your first love should no longer be the same person. Could it be that he has never been in love or married again in all these years?"

Fu Qiwen chuckled, "So what? He's unmarried and I'm unmarried. This is the best way to start over."

Fu Ziyan watched the show silently. She could not believe that the third aunt who looked like Miss Jiao was a domineering woman who was good at planning love and marriage, and the second aunt who looked like an independent woman was actually a love-brained person!

So this is the saying “Don’t judge a book by its cover”, I’ve learned it!

The second concubine finally regained some of her sanity and prepared to send all the young people in the hall out to play. Just as she was about to call Fu Zhong, she was stopped by Fu Mingzhang, "There's nothing to hide. Let them all stay and learn well."

The second concubine's face turned pale, and Fu Mingzhang looked at Fu Qiwen again, "If you want to get married, you can. But I will send someone to investigate, and the premise is that you have good character."

For Fu Mingzhang, the most important thing in his children's marriage is the other party's character, while financial resources and family background are secondary.

This was his opinion, but he didn't interfere when his child's mother had other opinions. He had heard about Fu Qiwen's affairs back then, and he had no opinion on the second concubine's behavior. Similarly, he always let Fu Qiwen do as she pleased.

Fu Qiwen regained her previous elegance, her lips curled up, "Feel free to investigate. Qi Fuan currently runs an art studio, specializing in book illustrations and animation character design. He's a rising star in the industry."

Fu Ziyan became excited when she heard about animation.

She just wanted to buy an animation company recently!

Her father told her to handle the purchase of the company on her own, but she was not familiar with the animation company at all, and she had difficulty in choosing the purchasing entity in the first step of the purchase.

Just when she was in trouble, her second aunt gave her an opportunity, which allowed her to learn about various American animation companies.

Then he would choose the most suitable one, go to the United States to inspect it, build a team, and then buy it. Fu Qiyuan had promised Fu Ziyan that he would take her to the United States this summer to let her personally inspect American animation companies.

At this moment, it didn’t matter whether Second Aunt was in love or not, she was her savior.
