Only then did Old Master Lian smile and get Chen Fa to pour him a cup of hot tea.
Fu Ting accepted it gratefully. When he saw Chen Fa, he smiled warmly and said, âGrandpa Butler, how are you? I havenât seen you for many years. Iâve missed you very much.â
âIâve been well.â Chen Fa stood aside happily and took the fruits that the servant had washed and placed them in front of Fu Ting. âYoung Master Fu, these were all your favorites in the past. Old Master still remembers them.â
Tears welled up in Fu Tingâs eyes, forcing him to lower his head. âGrandpa, although Iâve been trapped in Liancheng for so many years, I havenât forgotten your preferences. This time, I specially got someone to bring back your favorite tea leaves. I just donât know if your taste has changed.â
âIt hasnât changed. Old Master still likes this.â Chen Fa smiled and took the gift box on Old Master Lianâs behalf. He gently opened a corner for Old Master Lian to take a look before getting someone to put it in the pantry.
âItâs good that it hasnât changed. I was worried that my sudden return would make Grandpa and Lian Jing unhappy.â Fu Ting lowered his head shyly, looking very guilty.
Old Master Lian smiled and waved his hand. âDo you think he doesnât know that you flew back?â
Fu Ting was silent for a moment. Suddenly, he looked up at Old Master Lian solemnly. âI know that Meng Meng has returned to the country. I brought her a welcome gift this time. I hope she wonât hate me for what happened in the past.â
Old Master Lianâs face suddenly darkened. He waved the servants aside and pointed at him as he warned sternly, âThis time, youâre not allowed to bring Meng Meng out alone. Sheâs a big girl now and is about to get married. If thereâs any more trouble, it will destroy the rest of her life.â
âYes, Grandpa. I know how important this is.â Fu Ting immediately admitted his mistake and tried his best to stay by Old Master Lianâs side. He coaxed Old Master Lian until he laughed heartily, before excusing himself because he was tired. He asked Chen Fa to bring him to the guest room to rest.
As soon as he entered, the obedient and humble smile on Fu Tingâs face immediately disappeared, to be replaced by impatience. He took out his phone and called Lianâe. After reporting his progress, he threw his phone aside and rolled onto the bed without taking off his jacket.
The Lian family rules were rigid and boring. Fu Ting was not as free as when he was alone outside. Here, he had to watch his words and desires at all times. Otherwise, he would have gone out by now to eat, play, and gamble with his friends.
The more he lay there, the more bored he felt. Fu Ting sat up in frustration and rubbed his hair haphazardly. Thinking of Shen Yin, who had been mentioned in the car just now, he sneered and walked to the makeup mirror to tidy up. Then, he bent over like a thief and walked out of the room.
Along the way, he carefully avoided the servants at home and slipped straight into Lian Jingâs room. After rummaging through the closet, he was surprised to find that there were no traces of a woman living here.
What was going on? Hadnât his mother said that Lian Jing was already living with that woman?
Fu Ting frowned and carefullv left the room. He started searching the guest rooms one by one and finally found a room filled with female daily necessities.
After opening the closet, Fu Ting immediately saw a sexy and revealing short skirt in the corner. He sneered and grabbed the items. He secretly cursed Lian Jing for being a beast in human clothes.
He usually pretended to be so unattainable, but it turned out that he liked to play such exciting games in secret. To think he had thought of Lian Jing like some sort of saint! In the end, he was still a man like him, who was controlled by his lower body!
Fu Ting felt even more disdainful. After secretly hiding the things in his room, he decided to go out and continue currying favor with Old Master Lian. But just as he walked out of the room, he saw a beautiful young lady standing in the corridor outside. She was wearing the Lian family uniform and was holding his favorite fruits.
The girl immediately lowered her head when she saw him. She blushed and stammered, âOld Master asked me to bring these things to you. If you need anything else, feel free to tell me.â
âOkay.â Fu Ting suppressed his urges and coughed dryly. He said coldly, âPut the things in my room. Oh right, if I need anything, how can I find you? The Lian family had no maids in the past.â
The young lady smiled obediently, but her head drooped lower and lower because of her shyness. âPresident Fu, Old Master Lian specially hired me to serve you. If you need anything, Iâm available at any time.â
The girl thought that she was dropping Fu Ting a hint, but to her surprise, his expression suddenly darkened when he heard this. He distanced himself coldly. âOkay, I understand. Put down those things and leave.â
âYes.â The girl bit her lower lip and did not dare to say anything else. However, when she passed him, she deliberately slowed down and stared at him with lingering eyes before turning around and leaving reluctantly.
Fu Tingâs poisonous gaze was fixed on her back. It was not until her figure disappeared at the end of the corridor that he smiled coldly and went to thank
Old Master Lian..
