Chapter 165 -164: This is the granddaughter-in-law he has longed for!
After some thought, Old Sir Fu still cautiously asked, “Recently, were you taken back home by your biological parents?”
Chi Gui was somewhat puzzled as to why the old master had come to ask this question specially at midnight, but politely responded, “Hmm. It happened a few months ago.”
Old Sir Fu: …
The butler and the bodyguard behind him: …

Somehow, they felt a bit awkward coming here in such a rush…
Because Mr. Fu told Old Sir Fu that Fu Si had found a girl from the rural areas who didn’t study well and only knew how to fight, Old Sir Fu naturally took it to mean she was the kind of troublemaker you find everywhere in society.
He hadn’t even thought of having someone check it out.
And now they’d caused such a huge misunderstanding…
“Come in first,” Chi Gui didn’t think too much and opened the door, “You’ve had a long journey.”
The Fu Family lived in the innermost part of Capital City, while this hotel was already approaching the outer ring. Even by car, it would take at least an hour.
Hearing the words “You’ve had a long journey,” Old Sir Fu’s face heated up slightly.
However, his life experiences were not just for show. His facial expression remained quite composed, “Cough… Are you comfortable here? Why didn’t you stay at your own home?”
He naturally glossed over that topic.
The old master, with his hands clasped behind his back, walked into the room with ease, as if nothing had happened.
The butler followed him in, while the bodyguards stayed outside.
Chi Gui closed the door and first poured a glass of water for both the old master and the butler, “The hotel only has purified water. I hope you won’t mind.”
The butler hadn’t expected to have a share and quickly accepted it.
Only then did Chi Gui turn around, heading towards the box on the bedside table, “You’re here for this ring, right? I was just thinking about finding an opportunity to return it to you…”
She hadn’t missed that Old Sir Fu had mentioned a “ring” when he arrived.
However, before her hand could touch the box, she heard Old Sir Fu’s somewhat anxious voice from behind, “Not at all, not at all! I definitely didn’t come for any ring! I’m just here to simply check on you!”
Are you kidding me!
This was the granddaughter-in-law he had long desired!
No matter what, he couldn’t let her return the ring!
Chi Gui: ?
She looked back in confusion, “But when you arrived earlier, didn’t you mention the ring…”
Old Sir Fu cleared his throat, and true to his crafty nature, saving face came to him naturally, “I was just asking if that boy had properly given you the ring.”
Butler: …
Chi Gui frowned slightly, “But this ring is too precious. I can’t accept it.”
Old Sir Fu chuckled, “Then return it to Fu Si. The ring was his gift to you, and if you have to return it, naturally it should be to him. As you know, I can’t make decisions for that rascal.”
Chi Gui: …
It was because Fu Si wouldn’t accept it that she had thought to return it to Old Sir Fu.
But with the old master playing this trick, there was nothing she could do.
As they were talking, the door of the small room next door was suddenly opened from the inside, and Su Niannian, with sleepy eyes, poked out her disheveled head, “Sister Chi… who’s here?”
They were staying in a large suite with four small rooms inside, and the sound insulation wasn’t very good. Su Niannian, staying next door, was woken up by the noise.
“My apologies,” Chi Gui said, “Grandpa Fu came to check on me and woke you up.”
Su Niannian glanced at the old man sitting on the sofa and waved her hands cheerfully, “No problem, no problem, carry on.”
After speaking, she withdrew her head.
Just as she closed the door, Su Niannian suddenly jolted awake.
Wait a minute… Grandpa Fu? Fu??
The Fu Family was apparently the leader of the Four Great Families in Capital City…
The thought startled Su Niannian.
No way, no way…
Even if Sister Chi had vast connections, surely she couldn’t know someone from the Fu Family…
She must have been confused by sleep, heard it wrong, maybe they said something like ‘Fu’…
Su Niannian lay back in bed but could no longer fall asleep.
–
Indeed, it was quite late. Old Sir Fu stood up to take his leave.
Chi Gui accompanied him down to the lobby.
As he was about to leave, Old Sir Fu paused, remembering something, “By the way, Xiao Chi, Old Jin had a relapse of his illness, has he contacted you?”
