"President, please don't be angry. The Fu's are already weakened, and they won't be able to hold out much longer." Having served as Faang Qiming's secretary for so many years, Chen Feng naturally knew his preferences very well. Thus, he would say whatever he wanted to hear.
Faang Qiming sighed, "I just don't understand why the Gu's suddenly stopped suppressing them. Otherwise, they would have gone bankrupt in less than a month. At that time, we would have been able to harvest their wealth like we were harvesting chives."
After being mercilessly rejected, Fu Xiaoxiao got into the car looking very depressed. Hee did not know how to persuade her, so he said, "Director Fu, please don't take it to heart. It's a business deal. How can we talk about a one-to-one deal?"
Fu Xiaoxiao knew that the honest girl in front of her was trying to comfort her. She patted her on the shoulder and forced a smile. "Don't worry, I'm fine."
Fu Xiaoxiao didn't say anything else on the way. She sat in the back seat with her eyes closed, thinking. When they arrived at the company, she took her car keys and drove home.
No matter how busy she was, she would never forget her son. Seeing that it was almost time, she stepped on the accelerator and drove home.
She thought that she would see her son like yesterday when she entered the house. She didn't expect that there was no one in the house. When she looked at her watch again, it was already past six o'clock.
She took out her cell phone and punched in the number she'd known so well five years ago. She'd deleted the contact, but it was a number she couldn't forget even if she wanted to.
After the call was dialed, it was quickly picked up.
"Hello!"
Hearing the other party's voice, Fu Xiaoxiao quickly asked, "Gu Gengchang, it's time. Why didn't I see you send Ziyun home?"
"Ziyun has a fever. He just took some medicine and is still sleeping."
When Fu Xiaoxiao heard this, she immediately became nervous. "How high is his fever? He is allergic to cephalosporin medicine. He can't be casually fed medicine."
Gu Gengchang was already holding the phone in his hand as he walked down the corridor. "38.5 degrees Fahrenheit. He only used fever medicine and is allergic to cephalosporin medicine. Ziyun also told the doctor at the first possible moment that he must have sweated while exercising this afternoon. He didn't adjust the temperature of the air conditioner in time, so he caught a cold."
Gu Gengchang didn't know why, but when he heard Fu Xiaoxiao's anxious voice, he actually explained so much to her.
Fu Xiaoxiao wasn't an unreasonable person. When children played, they couldn't care about anything else. It was normal for them to get sick.
"Then I'll go and pick him up." When Fu Xiaoxiao heard that her son was sick, she couldn't stay a minute longer. She hung up the phone and ran out of the house.
When she drove all the way to the Gu family's old residence, she couldn't help but sigh as she looked at the familiar building in front of her.
She remembered the first time she had come here, at least two days a month after her marriage, and her father-in-law and mother-in-law had been kind to her.
Before he could think about it, the door opened. The doorman must have been notified in advance by Gu Gengchang and let him in.
Fu Xiaoxiao drove all the way to the main gate of the mansion. After parking the car, she hurriedly walked towards the villa.
Just as she stepped onto the steps, she saw Gu Gengchang's tall figure appear at the door.
She looked at him and asked, "Where is my son?"
"Upstairs, in our old room." When Gu Gengchang answered, he was completely unconscious, but after he spoke, he realized that this description did not seem to be appropriate, and he could not help but cough awkwardly.
Fu Xiaoxiao's heart tightened when she heard this. Now that things had changed, it wasn't good to hear such words.
But her face was impassive. Five years of experience had transformed her from a little girl as innocent as a sheet of white paper to a strong modern woman, and all her emotions were hidden beneath her calm expression.
As soon as Fu Xiaoxiao entered the living room, she saw Old Master Gu sitting on the sofa, smiling at her. "Xiaoxiao is here!" The old man stood up.
He was very satisfied with his former granddaughter-in-law. After Gu Gengchang divorced Fu Xiaoxiao without permission, Old Master Gu had been angry for a long time. Now that he saw Fu Xiaoxiao again, he still felt warm in his heart.
Fu Xiaoxiao was a very sensitive person. She naturally knew who was good to her. She walked forward and solemnly called out, "Grandpa."
Old Master Gu took Fu Xiaoxiao's hand and smiled. "It's normal for children to get sick, he said. You don't have to worry too much. The family doctor has already taken a look, and the medicine has been used. It'll be fine in a while."
Fu Xiaoxiao nodded, "I'll go up and see Ziyun first."
Old Master Gu knew that she would not be at ease if she did not see the child, so he nodded and let her do as she pleased.
Fu Xiaoxiao walked up the stairs to the master bedroom with great familiarity. The door wasn't closed, and as soon as she entered, she realized that all the furniture had changed. It was obvious that it had been redecorated.
On the east side of the room, there was a large bed in the shape of a boat. Fu Ziyun's small body was lying on it, and Mrs. Gu was guarding the bed.
Hearing the noise, Mrs. Gu turned around and saw Fu Xiaoxiao.
Fu Xiaoxiao opened her mouth and called out softly, "Auntie."
Mrs. Gu was stunned when she heard this, but then she realized that she and Gu Gengchang were divorced, so it was normal to call him that. She smiled and said softly, "Ziyun just fell asleep. Stay here with him for a while."
Fu Xiaoxiao nodded and sat down on the edge of the bed. Mrs. Gu patted her shoulder and walked out of the room.
Fu Xiaoxiao first went to the bathroom to wash her hands, then rubbed her hands until they were at natural temperature. Only then did she reach out and touch Fu Ziyun's forehead. It was still very hot.
She couldn't help but worry that Fu Ziyun would catch a cold once a year, and every time he was stubborn. He would have to have a fever for about a week to get over it, and she hoped it wouldn't be the same this time.
Fu Ziyun slept very soundly and had no intention of waking up.
When Fu Xiaoxiao sat by the bed, she felt a little uneasy. This was the Gu family, and she did not want to stay here for too long, but her son was still sick. What should she do?
Finally, she made up her mind that if she waited another hour or so, Fu Ziyun would probably wake up. Even if he didn't wake up, the fever would have subsided by then, so she carried him home. After all, there were all kinds of common medicines at home, and it was easy for her to take care of him.
At this moment, Mrs. Gu walked in. "Xiaoxiao, the meal is ready. Let's go down and eat together."
Fu Xiaoxiao subconsciously shook her head. "No, I'm not hungry."
Her current identity was very awkward, and she would be meeting all the members of the Gu family at the dining table. There was no need to think about the awkward atmosphere. She would rather be hungry than feel so uncomfortable.
Seeing that she was insistent, Mrs. Gu did not say anything else and turned around to go downstairs.
