The circle in Jiangzhou City is so big. After Wen Sheng learned Xu Yanshu's identity, he expected that they would meet on a narrow road.
I just didn't expect that it would be in such a bloody situation.
From a distance of several meters, Wen Sheng recognized Xu Yanshu in an off-white suit and skirt. She was delicate and elegant, which was very different from yesterday's hot and sexy style.
What surprised Wen Sheng the most was that Xu Yanshu held the arm of a middle-aged woman, behaved in an intimate manner, and talked and laughed.
She is Jiang Lingyi, Fu Yanlin’s biological mother.
They had met once before.
That time Wen Sheng was still Jiang Yukuo's girlfriend and was invited to attend the Fu family's family dinner. Jiang Lingyi did not attend the banquet that night, but when it was almost over, she rushed over to help Fu Yuhe go back to the bedroom to rest.
Her humble and forbearing attitude was filled with contempt in Jiang Yukuo's eyes.
"That was my grandpa's former secretary. He became a mistress because of his good looks. He has been poor and miserable all his life."
At that time, Wen Sheng had not yet met Fu Yanlin again and did not take Jiang Yukuo's words to heart.
Now looking at the two people holding hands in front of me, I just feel that life is really a big mess.
The atmosphere was awkward. Wen Sheng secretly glanced at Fu Yanlin. His face could not be darker. Even so, the due etiquette was still indispensable.
"Auntie, Miss Xu." Wen Sheng took the initiative to greet her, her attitude neither condescending nor overbearing.
After speaking, she squeezed Fu Yanlin's hand to signal him to speak.
Fu Yanlin had a dark face and said coldly, "Mother."
"A Yan——" Jiang Lingyi was surprised when she heard her son's voice.
When he turned around and saw Fu Yanlin holding Wen Sheng's hand, his face suddenly darkened.
Jiang Lingyi rarely leaves the Fu family's old house, and Fu Yuhe needs someone to take care of him, so he always goes back and forth between the hospital and the old house.
Today, Xu Yanshu personally visited Fu Yuhe's home and took the initiative to invite Jiang Lingyi to go shopping, making an exception for her outing.
If the previous impression of Xu Yanshu came from Fu Yuhe's mouth, then today is the first time that Jiang Lingyi has had real contact with this future daughter-in-law.
I never expected that a daughter of a wealthy family like Xu Yanshu would be good-tempered, polite and considerate.
Not only did he personally drive Jiang Lingyi to and from her, he also gave her a lot of clothes and bags as a meeting gift when they went shopping just now.
What touched Jiang Lingyi the most was when Xu Yanshu called her "Mrs. Fu" in private.
Jiang Lingyi had been a lowly servant in the Fu family for most of her life, and even the servants did not want to see her. The words "Mrs. Fu" gave her enough face and completely conquered her heart.
Jiang Lingyi recognized this daughter-in-law.
I just didn't expect to meet Fu Yanlin and Wen Sheng here.
Xu Yanshu smiled at Fu Yanlin and took the initiative to say hello, "Leo, are you here to eat too? I just went shopping with my aunt and am about to have a meal."
She was smiling when she spoke, and her tone was deliberately gentle, without the aggressive aura of yesterday.
I have to say that Xu Yanshu is a smart and capable woman.
She didn't feel the slightest bit frustrated when she encountered a problem with Fu Yanlin yesterday. Instead, she ran to Fu's house early this morning.
A smart woman always gets what she wants by consolidating her position, rather than being unreasonable and annoying.
"A Yan, you haven't been home for a long time. Yan Shu just happened to be here today. How about we go back and have a meal with your dad in the evening?" Jiang Lingyi knew that she couldn't control her son, so every time she spoke, she had a discussion tone.
, appearing weak and humble.
Xu Yanshu smiled, and her eyes fell on Wen Sheng, quite provocatively, "I think Yvonne won't object, right?"
How could Wen Sheng not see that Xu Yanshu did it on purpose when he was suddenly mentioned. She wanted to embarrass Wen Sheng in front of Jiang Lingyi and remind her of her identity.
At times like this, she felt there was no need to be angry, so she smiled lightly and said, "Just ask Fu Yanlin."
"Ayan——"
Jiang Lingyi was about to speak for Xu Yanshu, but was interrupted by Fu Yanlin.
Even if the person in front of him is his biological mother, if he does anything that makes Wen Sheng uncomfortable, he will never agree with it.
"I'm very busy. I'll go back to see you next time when Miss Xu is away." Fu Yanlin's face was sullen. It didn't take a blind person to see that he didn't want to see Xu Yanshu.
In other words, it can be said that Fu Yanlin did not regard Xu Yanshu as a piece of cake at all. If she wanted to start with Jiang Lingyi, she might have picked the wrong person.
He is known to be a free-spirited man who refuses to accept either soft or hard advice. Not to mention looking for Jiang Lingyi as a lobbyist, even if Fu Yuhe comes, his position will not change.
No matter how well she pretended, Xu Yanshu's expression was still stiff. But she knew that at this time, she should be more generous, so that Jiang Lingyi would feel that Fu Yanlin owed her.
"It's okay, we'll make an appointment next time." Xu Yanshu had a faint smile on her face.
Fu Yanlin didn't even glance at Xu Yanshu from the corner of his eyes. He said "Let's go" and directly took Wen Sheng's hand and left the restaurant.
Seeing the two figures disappearing at the end of the corridor, Jiang Lingyi finally couldn't stand it any longer, "Yanshu, I'm sorry, A Yan's temper is rather stubborn. As for Miss Wen -"
She was worried about how to explain the matter between the two of them, but she didn't expect Xu Yanshu to speak first, "Mrs. Fu, I understand. Leo is not a man without a sense of propriety. It's okay to have some fun before getting married. After a while, you will know what is going on."
Only women are most suitable for themselves.”
These words made Jiang Lingyi very satisfied.
"Yanshu, you are really a girl who understands the general situation. You will definitely be able to help Ayan after you get married, unlike me - I can't do anything."
Jiang Lingyi knew his identity very well and had low self-esteem. Because of this identity, Fu Yanlin suffered a lot of grievances.
"You should call me aunt from now on. I'm afraid it's not appropriate for others to call me Mrs. Fu. After all, who is the head matron of the Fu family?"
Xu Yanshu smiled and explained, "Ayan will take over the Fu family's business in the future. As her mother, you will naturally be the matron of the family. If you care about other people's thoughts, you will only shout like this when we are alone in the future, okay?
?”
"Don't worry Yanshu, I will only recognize you as my wife in this life." Jiang Lingyi was moved. She had no identity and no ability, so she couldn't help Fu Yanlin much in the Fu family.
But Xu Yanshu was different. She came from a famous family, was very capable, and was the most favored daughter of the family. A future marriage would naturally consolidate Fu Yanlin's position in the family.
Jiang Lingyi also had a fantasy when she was young, hoping that one day she could stand upright beside Fu Yuhe. However, after years of suppression by her first wife, she was forced to be humble and forbearing, and she could no longer see the future.
Fu Yanlin is different, he is excellent and deserves the best.
Therefore, Xu Yanshu's words rekindled Jiang Lingyi's hope and further determined the marriage.
