Chapter 445 My uncle came to pick me up, but he didn't drive?
Fu Chengyi, dressed in a British-style school uniform, a backpack over one shoulder, and one hand in his pocket, walked coolly and arrogantly under the tree. Tiny specks of gold filtered through the leaves, landing on his now-fat-free cheeks. Suddenly, his gaze fixed on a certain spot, and the next instant he came running towards him, even the wind carrying his youthful energy.
He stopped in front of Fu Ziyan, smiled, revealing his clean, white teeth, and his eyes sparkled with surprise: "Sister Yan, what brings you here!"
Perhaps because she had watched Xiao Yiyi grow up, Fu Ziyan always thought he was still a little kid. But in this instant, she suddenly realized that the little dumpling who used to cling to her leg had grown into a spirited young man in the blink of an eye.
Fu Ziyan softened her features and smiled, "I've come to pick you up from school."
Just as Fu Chengyi was about to say something, he noticed Ming Qiao standing next to his sister.
He was stunned.
Something seemed to flash through his mind, but he couldn't quite grasp it. He instinctively turned around and waved to Su Tianhao, whom he had just left behind: "Hao-zai, your uncle is here!"
Su Tianhao, who looked up at the sound, was also stunned...
He always rides his bicycle home from school, so I haven't heard that his uncle is coming to pick him up.
Su Tianhao quickly stepped forward and greeted her politely: "Uncle, Sister Fu."
"Sis, what a coincidence! You just happened to run into Uncle Haozai." Fu Chengyi was still immersed in the joy of his sister picking him up from school, chattering away and completely forgetting his "cool and arrogant young master" persona.
"Hmm, it is quite a coincidence." Fu Ziyan turned her head and gestured for the bodyguard to take Fu Chengyi's backpack.
But Mingqiao beat him to it.
Almost as soon as Fu Ziyan turned her head, he reached out and picked up the bag that Fu Chengyi was carrying on one shoulder. He paused for a moment without making it obvious, and then took Su Tianhao's bag with his other hand.
"Thank you, Uncle Ming."
Fu Chengyi didn't think anything was wrong. In his few interactions with Haozai, his uncle had always been a good elder. But Su Tianhao wouldn't misunderstand like that.
His uncle is a real devil! The person who made him run with a gravity ring during training is actually carrying his schoolbag today?
Su Tianhao tilted his head, feeling that something was amiss.
"A new dessert shop has opened in Jordan. The owner's skills are unique. Shall we go try it?"
"Go, go, go!" Fu Chengyi certainly wouldn't refuse. His sister was not only picking him up from school today, but also taking him to get some sweet soup! How could he possibly refuse!
Fu Ziyan glanced at Su Tianhao and asked, "Little Su, are you coming too?"
"Together, Haozai will definitely go," Fu Chengyi blinked happily, signaling to his friend as if afraid he might refuse, "Right?"
Su Tianhao smiled shyly and said, "Thank you, Sister Fu."
Fu Ziyan nodded, her gaze shifting to Ming Qiao, her expression calm, and her voice clear and articulate: "Ming sir, please?"
"Thank you for your help, Miss Fu." Mingqiao cooperated with his girlfriend, pretending that they were not familiar with each other. Although he didn't know why Selene wanted to play this game, he was happy as long as Selene was happy.
Fu Ziyan: Ding~ The "Affair" script is activated!
After the Kwun Tong Line opened in 1979, Jordan Station was built. As passenger traffic increased, the shops in this area saw a surge in prices.
Fu Ziyan was referring to the dessert shop that opened near Jordan Station earlier this month. She and Gu Anning had gone in and tried it yesterday while strolling around the mall.
The syrup is sweet and refreshing, made with high-quality ingredients, and the fruit flesh is crisp, tender, and plump.
Wumei naturally attracts a large number of customers, so it was packed with guests as soon as it opened, and the crowds have not dissipated to this day.
There are many people and vehicles in this area, so it's difficult for cars to drive in. You have to pull over, get out of the car, and walk in.
Not far from the Jordan MTR station exit, the small shop's bright pink and black signboard with the words "Tang Shui Dang" is very eye-catching. Inside, there are small tables and posters on the walls. The sweet aroma of tang Shui Dang fills the air, and warm yellow lights illuminate the wood grain of the wooden tables and chairs. Some people get up to leave, while others come in and sit down.
As is customary, the bodyguards went forward first to clean the table and chair surfaces, and then sat down at another table.
Fu Chengyi followed quietly beside his sister, making no attempt to hide his surprise.
This is a small shop with a very down-to-earth atmosphere, but that's what surprised him.
In his memory, Sister Yan Yan was always impeccably dressed, eating, living, and traveling. She wouldn't eat anything but premium ingredients and wouldn't look at anything but top-tier jewelry. She was a typical pampered young lady with an extremely high standard of living. You should know that the money his second uncle's family spent on food alone each month was enough for an ordinary family to work hard for a lifetime.
He never imagined that his sister would also eat at a small street-side shop!
Puzzled, Fu Chengyi would occasionally glance up at Fu Ziyan.
Ming Qiao glanced at Fu Chengyi out of the corner of his eye.
Fu Ziyan raised her hand and lightly tapped Fu Chengyi's forehead, then chuckled helplessly, "What's so attractive about your sister's face?"
It wouldn't be polite to ask his sister "why she came to eat at such a small shop" while she was in someone else's restaurant, so Fu Chengyi shook his head and said, "I was just thinking about how delicious the desserts at this shop must be to attract my sister here."
Fu Ziyan quickly guessed Fu Chengyi's true thoughts after a moment's thought. She gave Fu Chengyi a playful smirk and said, "You'll know once you try it."
It was actually her father who controlled her quality of life. It was the first time that Fu Sheng had raised a child. He didn't say it, but he arranged for people to do everything in her daily life to the best of their ability.
Fu Ziyan felt that there were very few people in Hong Kong who could enjoy food and clothing flown in from time to time in the 1960s. In fact, it wasn't just food and clothing that were flown in, but also private tutors for different courses.
Fu Ziyan chuckled as she spoke to Fu Chengyi, while Ming Qiao, sitting on the other side of the table, was stunned by the fleeting brilliance in Fu Ziyan's eyes.
In fact, he often saw Selene after they started dating, but Mingqiao felt that he would probably never be immune to Selene's beauty.
Although Mingqiao quickly regained his senses and lowered his eyes to move the desserts that Fu Ziyan liked toward her, Fu Ziyan did not miss Mingqiao's momentary lapse in concentration.
Her eyebrows curved slightly as she happily praised her own stunning beauty in her heart, thanking the Chengzhen APP once again!
“This mung bean and grass jelly is their shop’s signature dish. Mr. Ming, you can try it.” Fu Ziyan raised her chin slightly, gesturing to the porcelain bowl in front of Ming Qiao.
"Thank you, Miss Fu."
"What does Ming Sir think?"
Mingqiao nodded politely, feigning unfamiliarity: "The dishes recommended by Miss Fu are naturally excellent."
The adults exchanged pleasantries, and the two children chatted happily. Su Tianhao, because of his earlier intuition that something was amiss, paid a little more attention to his uncle.
He had a feeling that his uncle seemed to be talking more than usual today.
But looking at his uncle and sister Fu's polite yet distant way of talking, Su Tianhao blinked in confusion. It was normal for them to talk politely, right?
"Haozai!" Fu Chengyi raised his hand and waved it in front of Su Tianhao's eyes.
"Ah, what's wrong?"
Fu Chengyi frowned in displeasure: "Why are you so dazed today? It's not like we're in class. You're daydreaming even when I'm talking to you."
"Maybe you didn't get enough sleep during your afternoon nap. It's okay. What did you just say? I'm sorry, I wasn't paying attention."
“I was saying, what about Miss Hong Kong?” Fu Chengyi pointed to the poster on the wall. “I wonder who will win the Miss Hong Kong crown this year?”
"I think it's Lü Mengyin. She has won first prize in piano competitions many times. She is multi-talented and beautiful."
"Luo Zhiyue is also very beautiful; her swan dance was absolutely stunning!"
"It is clearly..."
While listening to the two children arguing about who should win for their respective idols, the secretly "cheating" young couple exchanged a knowing smile.
The two argued all the way from the dessert shop until the car stopped in front of the Su family's house.
"I'm home, Da Yi!"
"Ah, you're home," Fu Chengyi said with a hint of regret, waving to his friend, "See you at school tomorrow, Haozai~"
"Bye-bye." Su Tianhao held onto the bicycle he had taken from the trunk, stood there watching the car drive away until it was out of sight before turning to go home. After taking two steps, he suddenly realized something was wrong.
He stopped and tilted his head to look at his uncle.
"Uncle, didn't you drive to pick me up today?"
