Chapter 518: Chapter 518: Going to See the Girlfriend

At dusk.

Xia Xin went out to cook, while Jiangli watched the educational channel by herself.

Meanwhile.

Fu Shiyan had finished all his meetings and returned to his office. He picked up his phone and saw that Jiangli hadn’t contacted him all day.

He raised an eyebrow.

The Abbot... quite heartless, indeed.

Fu Shiyan chuckled softly.

There had been a pile-up of issues at the company in H City the previous two days that needed his attention.

During the meetings, Fu Shiyan would check his phone from time to time, for fear of missing any contact from Jiangli.

But unexpectedly, the Abbot seemed to have completely forgotten about him.

Fu Shiyan shook his head helplessly. Just as he was about to put his phone down, it rang.

He thought it was a call from Jiangli, but when he picked it up, it was from his second uncle, Fu Lang.

Fu Shiyan’s expression turned faintly indifferent as he answered the call, "Second Uncle, aren’t you supposed to be training? Why do you have time to call me?"

Fu Lang’s voice was deep and full of authority, "I heard your third, fourth, and fifth uncles had an incident, right when you were in H City?"

Fu Shiyan replied with a light laugh, "Second Uncle, are you asking if I had a hand in this matter?"

Fu Lang said, "I’ve heard about the situation, and your third uncle made it clear to me – it’s not your fault. However, Director Xu mentioned that you sent a notification and won’t be managing the Fu family’s business in H City anymore?"

Fu Shiyan leaned against the office desk, "Is this something I need to manage?"

Fu Lang paused.

After a moment, Fu Lang sighed, "Shiyan, I know you still hold a grudge against your third, fourth, and fifth uncles, but we’re all family, bones are still connected though tendons may break."

Fu Shiyan did not immediately respond.

Initially, due to certain matters, Fu Shiyan had to leave the Fu family and go abroad. Coincidentally, the Fu family was expanding its overseas industries, so Fu Shiyan’s parents took him with them out of the country.

The domestic affairs were entrusted to the grandfather’s care.

Fu Shiyan’s grandfather was always in good health with no issues, but no one had anticipated that he would suddenly pass away in his sleep, without any illness.

Fu Yi and the others in the country were the first to get the news but sealed the information, creating a delay in the message to prevent Fu Shiyan’s family overseas from finding out and secretly transferred assets within the country.

By the time Fu Shiyan’s parents learned of this from other shareholders, three days had already passed.

Immediately booking their return flight, Fu Shiyan’s parents met with an air disaster.

If Fu Yi and the others hadn’t suppressed the news, his parents wouldn’t have been on that flight three days later; they would have returned to the country much earlier.

Back then, everyone was afraid that Fu Shiyan would have a falling out with the rest of the Fu family.

Yet, Shiyan, who was only fifteen or sixteen at the time, didn’t show any inclination for revenge, as if he was unaware of the matter.

He even verbally expressed that it was an accident.

Fu Yi and the others gradually relaxed their guard, treating it as an accident.

With the help of Fu Lang, Fu Group was smoothly passed on, temporarily held in Fu Lang’s hands. Fu Yi and the others, still somewhat fearful, then moved to H City.

Over the years, it was mainly Fu Lang and Fu Shiyan who kept in close contact.

Fu Lang originally thought that Fu Shiyan didn’t care at all.

But it seemed that wasn’t the case this time...

Fu Shiyan actually cared.

"Shiyan, do you still hold a grudge against them?" When Fu Shiyan remained silent, Fu Lang asked.

Playing with the pen in his hand, Fu Shiyan answered, "Second Uncle exaggerates. I’ve said that I won’t hold grudges, but I won’t involve myself in the affairs of the Fu family in H City. If Second Uncle wants to take charge, I won’t stop you."

Fu Lang paused again.

Fu Shiyan added, "The Fu family cannot shelter anyone for a lifetime."

Fu Lang fell silent, understanding what Fu Shiyan meant. He abruptly changed the subject, "I heard from your third uncle that you have a fiancée, a rather formidable girl? I’ll be returning to F City for a break tomorrow, be sure to bring her over and let me have a look."
