Chapter 186: Chapter 186: Miss Bao Just Came Over
Tang Li turned to leave upon hearing this.
Fu Si hurriedly grabbed her, "Today is my mom’s birthday, and I’ve already told my family that I would bring you to dinner. If you don’t go, I’ll lose face."
"I’m not familiar with your family."
Although the Fu Family was very well-off, Tang Li had never thought of cozying up to them.
Fu Si got off the motorcycle, still clutching the hood of her jacket, "If we’re not familiar now, won’t we be after eating together? I passed the retakes for advanced math and linear algebra. Everyone in my family is really happy, especially my grandpa. He even gave me back the motorcycle he had taken away before."
Hearing this, Tang Li couldn’t help but glance at the valuable motorcycle.
"This was a gift from my grandpa when I first started university. Later, when I failed too many courses, he took it back." As he spoke, Fu Si moved closer to Tang Li in a coaxing manner, "I’ve never taken a girl on this bike before. Today, I’ll make an exception for you."
Tang Li pulled her hood back from his hand, "You should keep this special exception for another time; it might come in very handy someday."
Fu Si was at a loss for words, "So you’re really not willing to give me face?"
"Please pass on a ’Happy Birthday’ to your aunt for me." Having said that, Tang Li took out her access card, ready to head back to Wentan Garden.
At that moment, Fu Si’s cellphone rang.
It was Song Ru calling.
Facing his mother’s inquiries, Fu Si explained, "I’m just waiting for someone here. She just got back, but she’s too shy... reluctant to come to our house... Okay, I’ll hand her the phone."
Tang Li had just reached the door when Fu Si caught up with her.
Seeing the cellphone still in call mode, Tang Li could only take it and, out of politeness, greeted the aunt on the line.
On the phone, Song Ru invited her to come for dinner at the Fu house.
"Xiao Si doesn’t have many friends in school, and it’s rare that he gets along with someone like you. He told me himself that you’ve been tutoring him. Our driver also mentioned it at home. When Xiao Si’s grandpa found out, he’s been wanting to meet you to thank you in person."
Just as Tang Li was about to decline, Song Ru continued, "We’re not planning a big birthday party tonight, just a family dinner. Including you and Jingtian, it’ll only be six of us."
Fu Si also incessantly added, "My mom has already counted you in. If you don’t come, it would really dampen the spirit."
Song Ru’s gentle voice came through the phone again, "If you really can’t make it, I’ll have Fu Si bring you some food later. The meals at school are no match for home cooking, and you’re at an age where you need to keep up with nutrition."
At this point, Tang Li found it difficult to make further excuses.
It was certainly quicker to go for a meal at the Fu house than having things sent to the school.
About half an hour later, the motorcycle stopped in front of the Fu family’s mansion.
The Fu Family lived in the wealthy area of Qinghai Road, their residence not inferior to the Lai Family’s, complete with a large garden and front courtyard.
"My dad and grandpa are easy to get along with," Fu Si explained as he went up the steps, turning slightly towards Tang Li, "As for my little uncle, he’s just a 7-year-old brat. You don’t have to mind him."
As they entered the villa, they faintly heard the sound of a woman’s laughter.
Fu Si, puzzled, asked a passing maid, "Are there any other guests at home?"
"Miss Bao just came over," the maid replied, holding a plate of cut fruit, "She brought a lot of Hairy Crabs. The madam is entertaining Miss Bao in the living room."
Before the words finished, two figures came out of the living room.
Tang Li’s gaze shifted towards Song Ru’s companion—a woman in her late twenties. Her smile was just right, her silky waist-length black hair draped over her shoulders, exuding an intellectual and mature beauty.
