"Mr. Fu is also bringing someone with him?" Xia Jinjin was somewhat surprised.
She had heard of Fu Wen’s brother, a man everyone in Capital City was wary of.
However, since she and Fu Wen had been together, Fu Si had already gone to Nancheng, and to this day, she had not seen him.
Yet Xia Jinjin had not heard of any Capital City young lady Mr. Fu had taken an interest in, so hearing Jinxiu mention it, she couldn’t help but be curious, "Who is that person?"
"I didn’t dare ask for details," Jinxiu, while picking out clothes, spoke in a nonchalant tone, "I only heard the butler say that this person also took part in some medical competition, so they must be a medical student."
Among the medical students, no one could rival Xia Jinjin, and Jinxiu wasn’t too worried.
Xia Jinjin nodded her head, not saying anything more.
On the other hand, Fu Wen, who was sitting on the side, felt a sudden throb in the center of his brow, he suddenly remembered the "Professor Chi" that Fu Si had mentioned when he went to cheer for Xia Jinjin.
At that time, he was half scared to death by the sudden appearance of Fu Si, his mind went blank, and he had no energy to pay attention to Professor Chi.
Now, hearing Jinxiu bring it up, a foreboding feeling surged within Fu Wen’s heart.
"That’s enough, Mom, whomever my brother brings home, that’s my sister-in-law, and Jinjin should treat her with respect. There’s no point in comparing!" Fu Wen mumbled.
Jinxiu glared at her unimpressive son, "What do you know? If we don’t make a good impression on the old man now, then when? I’d accept it if you can’t outdo Fu Si, but Jinjin is so outstanding, why should she make way for someone else?"
"It’s not about making way..." Fu Wen found it hard to voice his troubles.
Mainly because he wasn’t sure what the relationship was between his brother and Professor Chi, he dared not speak carelessly, he could only pray in his heart that he was overthinking and that the person his brother would bring back wasn’t Professor Chi.
Otherwise, his mother’s fighting spirit would turn into a tragic spectacle...
At eleven o’clock in the morning, Fu Si arrived on time to pick up Chi Gui.
He didn’t use Qin Cheng but drove the car himself.
After calling Chi Gui, he leaned over the steering wheel and waited for a short while before he saw her walking out of the entrance.
Perhaps those involved in scientific research all liked simple and comfortable clothes, Chi Gui was always in that same outfit — a white T-shirt tucked into blue jeans, which highlighted her slender waist and lengthy legs.
Her black hair was tied completely at the back of her head, revealing a fair and full forehead, and on her delicately pretty little face, those black almond eyes were like an ancient well, calm and serene, without a ripple. New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on NoveIꜰire.net
Although it was the simplest of attires, there was something about Chi Gui’s demeanor that made people feel incredibly peaceful and comfortable when they saw her.
Before Chi Gui had even approached, a smile was already playing on Fu Si’s thin lips.
He leaned over and opened the passenger-side door, asking with a light chuckle, "What would you like to eat?"
"Anything is fine." Chi Gui got into the passenger seat, looking down to fasten her seatbelt, "I really like the food at the Fu Family’s place."
Fu Si immediately felt a twinge of regret.
He had missed so many opportunities to share a table with Chi Gui in the past!
Once Chi Gui had fastened her seatbelt, Fu Si started the car and headed toward the Fu Family’s home.
On the way there, Chi Gui received a message from Xu Wen, saying that there were several documents in the research institute that required her signature.
After reading the message, Chi Gui lifted her head from her phone and looked toward Fu Si, "There are several documents at the research institute that require my signature; can I have them sent to the Fu family’s place?"
It would be too late to go to the institute now.
Fu Si didn’t ask why she couldn’t just handle the official business after lunch; he simply nodded, "Of course, that’s fine."
