Feeling Mrs. Bai's worry, Fu Hee smiled and assured her.
"Don't worry, I will settle the matter at my end since we have come to this stage. I will bring up the matter to Fu Hua later today. I will also mention it to my husband."
"Since you have assured me, then I am relieved." Mrs. Bai said with a smile.
"Ah! you don't need to worry too much, you can trust me. When our children get married, our relationship will become stronger and better. And you are my very good friend, so how can I fail at my promise to you?"
Mrs. Bai smiled to herself as she drank the tea in her cup.
The two of them chatted for a while before Fu Hee left. And when she came back to the Fu Villa with a smile on her face, she met Fu ChunHua who was stuffing herself with food.
She snorted and wanted to walk past her, but she was called back.
Immediately Fu Hee stepped into the living room, Fu ChunHua smiled to herself and put down the cup of tea in her hand. And when she saw that Fu Hee was about to walk past her, she called out to her with a smile, and the latter stopped in her steps and turned to glance at her with a frown.
"Why are you calling me? The last time I checked, we don't have any business together, so what can I do for you?" Fu Hee asked with a frown.
She just came home and was in a good mood, so she decided to take it easy on her because normally, she would have snubbed her and walked past her.
"Relax, I'm not here to look for trouble. In fact, I have been waiting for you." Fu ChunHua said with a smiling gaze.
"You've been waiting for me, what for?" Fu Hee asked. She didn't like the way Fu ChunHua was smiling, as she knew the woman was her rival and wouldn't have any good plan for her.
"I wanted to congratulate you as you will be getting a daughter-in-law for yourself." Fu ChunHua said.
Fu Hee was a little stunned, but then she relaxed as she asked with a fierce gaze. "You've been eavesdropping on my conversations?! I don't blame you, you will always like to act sneakily. If I have arranged a wife for Fu Hua, how is it your business?"
After warning her, she attempted to walk away but Fu ChunHua stopped her again.
Fu ChunHua stood to her feet and walked close to her. Then she opened her mouth to say...
"What eavesdropping on your conversation are you talking about? Do you think I'm that jobless? Oh! I just recalled that you just said you arranged a wife for Fu Hua, don't you think it's too late?"
"What do you mean by it's too late?" Fu Hee asked in an annoyed tone. She was waiting to see what that troublemaker was driving at.
Fu ChunHua chuckled softly with her hand over her mouth.
"Tsk...tsk...tsk... it seems that you don't know what's going on in the family as you have another business outside. Father has already arranged a wife for your son, you don't need to bother going over that stress again."
"What?! What nonsense are you talking about?" Fu Hee asked with an unbelievable expression on her face.
Fu ChunHua feigned a surprised look as she asked, "What? 😦 you don't know about this? Poor you! Father has already found an eligible marriage partner for Fu Hua, so you don't need to stress yourself in that area."
"What?! How can father make such arrangements without telling me about it? I don't believe you, I'm going to find out for myself." Fu Hee said as she walked towards Grandfather Fu's study in anger.
"Tsk...tsk...tsk... you're already pissed off with the fact that Father arranged a wife for your son without your consent, just wait till you find out who your soon-to-be daughter-in-law is."
Fu ChunHua said as she chuckled to herself.
Just when Fu Hee was about to knock on the door, the door opened from inside, and out came Butler Lu. He looked startled to see her.
Fu Hee tried to peep, but the door closed before she could see anything.
"Butler Lu, I want to see father, it's urgent." Fu Hee said to him.
"Madam, I'm sorry, but Master is on a very important meeting at the moment with regards to the military." Butler Lu reported.
Fu Hee went straight to ask after being rejected.
"Since Father is occupied and can't see me now, then you have to answer my questions as I don't have the patience to wait. What am I hearing about Father getting a marriage partner for Fu Hua?"
"Madam, I think you will have to ask Sir about it." Butler Lu said with a slight smile.
"If I have to ask Father about everything, then what's your job as his right-hand man? Maybe you should be fired!" Fu Hee voiced angrily.
Butler Lu sighed and screamed in his head. He felt he had a bit of bad luck with whatever was going on.
"Madam, what you heard is true. Master has indeed arranged a marriage partner for the young master. If you will excuse me, I have to run an errand for Master."
And with that, Butler Lu hurriedly escaped from her presence.
How could he dare to invite a fight by telling her who the lady the old man arranged was? He wasn't ready to experience her madness.
When Butler Lu walked away, Fu Hee was so angry that she squeezed her palms. She looked back at the tightly shut doors, and she was tempted to barge in there. But her rationality chose to favor her.
When Butler Lu walked back, he saw still standing there. And before she could say anything to him, he said to her, "Madam, I will let you know when Master is less busy."
Fu Hee could only swallow her words and watch him walk into the study room and shut the door.
Fu Hee didn't have the patience to wait for who knows how long, so she walked away to find answers herself.
Walking back to the living room, she met Fu ChunHua drinking a glass of red wine.
"Who on earth did the old man arrange for my son?!" Fu Hee asked as soon as she stepped into view.
Fu ChunHua looked up at her and smiled. " Oh you're back so soon?"
"Were you expecting me to sleep right outside his door? You seem to know a lot about this matter, so answer my questions." Fu Hee said in a demanding tone.
"Fu Hee, I am not your servant that you can talk to in such manner. My lips are tightly shut and I'm not saying anything to you. If you want answers to your questions because I can see how tensed you are, wait patiently for Father to call you in, or you can go find your son to ask him about it."
Learning that Fu Hua knew everything about this matter, Fu Hee couldn't be bothered about her again, so she directly went to find Fu Hua.
Unfortunately, for her, Fu Hua was not at home at the moment. He left the house immediately after leaving the study.
"That Bitch! She knew Fu Hua was not around, and she made me go find him!" Fu Hee said through gritted teeth as she walked back to the living room.
Glancing at the woman who was filling her stomach with the red wine, she said to her, "You must be having fun with all of these rights?!"
"Why wouldn't I have fun, after all, this matter is worth celebrating. Guess what! Your daughter-in-law is kind of okay but with your high standards, you may not like her. But don't worry, she is very obedient to her elders, so she can tolerate your nagging and insatiable desires." Fu ChunHua spat.
"ChunHua! You are really going too far!" Fu Hee warned as pointed at her.
"Do you want to fight me? Are you sure you have that kind of time?" Fu ChunHua said, daring her.
At this moment, Fu Hee was lost for words. She felt like strangling Fu ChunHua because the latter was taunting her.
When Butler Lu went back to the study, the old man had just put the telephone down.
"Master, Madam Fu Hee has been waiting to see you, and it looks like she has found out about the matter." Butler Fu announced.
"That woman! Call her in!" Grandfather Fu said as he adjusted the framed glass 👓 on the bridge of his nose.
Butler Lu bowed and left to find Fu Hee. When he went to the living room, it was at that time Fu ChunHua sent her away.
So, when Butler Lu came looking for her, She was away looking for Fu Hua.
Butler Lu saw Fu ChunHua in the living room and said to her...
