Ms. Bigshot Is Pampered by All-Chapter 377 - 376: Shaping a Ceramic for Twenty Years and Still Not Looking Good

"Of course," Fu Si spoke before Old Sir Fu could, "this is your home, and you are free to say or do anything you wish."

Ever since he had given Chi Gui the ring representing authority as the Fu Family Matriarch, it was as if half of the Fu Family was handed over to her.

Whether she would exercise this right was entirely up to Chi Gui.

After receiving permission, Chi Gui slowly began, "I personally believe that Aunt Fu is completely qualified to replace Zheng Wen."

That one sentence instantly stirred up a thousand ripples!

Everyone in the hall was shocked as they stared at Chi Gui. freёweɓnovel.com

Even Fu Si, with a hint of disbelief in his phoenix eyes.

Old Sir Fu frowned and instinctively said, "If Zheng Xiu hadn’t had the gap of these twenty-odd years, there would be no concern regarding Zheng Wen. But now..."

Chi Gui smiled, picked up the design from the table, and showed everyone, "Even now, her level has hardly fallen behind."

The design had taken Mrs. Fu nearly a year of effort, with countless revisions and refinements, and even Old Sir Fu, who knew nothing of jewelry, was taken aback by its brilliance at first sight.

Sometimes, genius is just so unreasonable.

Even though Mrs. Fu had been out of practice for a long time, as long as she was willing to pick up the pen again, she could still return to the peak.

Old Sir Fu and the rest remained silent, implicitly accepting Chi Gui’s words.

After everyone had a moment to recover, Chi Gui continued, "The Jade Appreciation Conference is the perfect opportunity for Aunt Fu’s comeback. However, she is likely to refuse. The conference runs for three days, and only on the last day will the designers’ works be exhibited. I hope that before then, I can personally accompany Aunt Fu to the conference to browse around, which would help her rebuild her confidence."

"I’ll convince her," Fu Si spoke up directly, not doubting Chi Gui’s words at all.

Both Old Sir Fu and Granny Fu trusted Chi Gui greatly, and the matter was thus settled.

Chi Gui had other business to attend to at her institute, so after arranging to pick up Mrs. Fu at nine o’clock on the morning of the conference, she left.

Time flew by.

Soon, the day of the Jade Appreciation Conference arrived.

Chi Gui arrived at the Fu Mansion promptly at nine in the morning.

Mrs. Fu had indeed been convinced, and although she still appeared a bit nervous, she didn’t say much and got in the car with Chi Gui directly.

Fu Si had been very busy lately, leaving home early and returning late.

Mr. Fu wanted to follow along, but Mrs. Fu dismissed the idea, "You’d better not go... You haven’t even made a decent ceramic piece in twenty years..."

Mr. Fu: ...

Ah, women.

In the end, considering Mrs. Fu’s feelings, Chi Gui politely turned down Old Sir Fu’s offer to contact the conference’s higher-ups, choosing to enter the Jade Appreciation Conference discreetly with Mrs. Fu.

Being unnoticed by others made it easier for Mrs. Fu.

As the most popular international jewelry and gemstone exhibition and sales event, the Jade Appreciation Conference selects a country to host each year and attracts almost all jewel and gemstone enthusiasts, professional appraisers, and designers wishing to make a name for themselves from around the world.

This year, the organizers chose Huaxia and specifically set the venue in the largest and most spacious sports center in Capital City. By the time Chi Gui and Mrs. Fu arrived, the front of the conference and the underground parking lot were already packed with vehicles.

Fashionable and high-society men and women streamed out of the entrance non-stop, creating a bustling scene.

Chi Gui, holding Mrs. Fu’s arm, followed the crowd into the venue.

Mrs. Fu hadn’t been in such a crowded environment for a long time and was understandably frightened, but with Chi Gui’s patient reassurance, she gradually calmed down, focusing on the jewelry creations designed by masters from various countries on display.
