Nan Yan accompanied Fu Jingheng to his black Maybach. She wasn’t hypocritical and polite. She opened the door of the passenger’s seat for her, then sat in with the umbrella, fastened his seat belt. Her every movement and gesture was relaxed and natural.
There was a hazy mist lingering in the mountains, and heavy raindrops fell on the car window. Her lively eyes’ line of sight gradually became blurred. The car started slowly and drove into the road with very little traffic.
“Little Uncle, you came alone to visit the grave today?” The atmosphere in the car was so quiet that it felt a little strange. From the corners of her eyes, Nan Yan glanced at Fu Jingheng, who was driving indifferently and attentively. She then broke the awkwardness with a light chuckle.
Fu Jingheng pursed his lips. His hands holding the steering wheel tightened slightly, but he remained silent.
Nan Yan froze. Although she did not know the Fu family well, she had some basic knowledge. Fu Jingheng and his older brother Fu Miancheng weren’t from the same mother. In 1991, the third year after the death of Fu Miancheng’s mother, Old Master Fu married another woman who was more than ten years younger than him. That person was the mother of Fu Jingheng and the Fu family’s second young madam, Fu Zheng. However, his mother had been in ill health and died when Fu Jingheng was 15 years old.
To think of it, it’s no surprise that he came to his mother’s grave today alone. Old Master Fu was old, and the cemetery was quite far away from the city. It was also raining. Old Master Fu probably can’t stand the bumpy terrain. It would already be good enough if his older brother Fu Miancheng doesn’t hate his mother, so he can’t come to visit.
It’s just that Nan Yan was a little curious. Why didn’t the second young madam of the Fu family come to visit the grave today?
Seeing that he was silent, Nan Yan didn’t force it. She took out a piece of chocolate from her bag and handed it over. “Little Uncle, do you want to eat it?”
Fu Jingheng glanced sideways, then indifferently retracted his gaze. “I don’t eat sweets.”
“The sweetness of this chocolate is just right. It’s not very saccharine, so it’s actually worth a try, but since Little Uncle really doesn’t like it, then I won’t…”
“Put it down.”
“What?”
“Put it there.” Fu Jingheng glanced at the chocolate in her hand and motioned.
Nan Yan was dumbfounded. Suddenly, she felt a bit of reluctance for her only one piece of chocolate. She was just saying so out of politeness, but she never expected that he was so spineless. He was moved by her few words, and his determination was so unsteady. How did he make his entertainment company so powerful?
“Didn’t Little Uncle just say that he shouldn’t eat sweets?” After she cursed him viciously in her heart, Nan Yan chuckled softly again, and her words seemed to have a teasing tone.
“Didn’t Miss Nan just say that it’s worth a try? It’s okay to try, after all…there’s a first time for everything.” Fu Jingheng’s lips curled. His last sentence was very meaningful.
Nan Yan felt a headache coming on. This dignified third master of the Fu family seemed to be a bit different from how the rumours made him out to be!
Those rumours saying he was handsome, dignified, haughty, and aloof were all deceptions. The only thing truthful about him was that he could be shameless with a straight face!
Nan Yan put the chocolate where he was pointing at, and smiled. “Little Uncle said that there’s a first time for everything. You have to try it before you know whether it’s appropriate and whether you like it or not.”
After hearing her somewhat profound remarks, Fu Jingheng glanced at her with a deeply meaningful look in his eyes. “Chemistry is also very important.”
Upon hearing this, Nan Yan raised her eyebrows and thought about it for a while. “Little Uncle, what you said also makes sense. Chemistry is really important. For some things, whether or not you like it can be known at first sight. If you don’t like it at first sight, it will be difficult to start to like afterwards.”
