Chapter 427 -426: Message from Han Jin
Fu Shuangshuang shook her head, sighing dejectedly.
“What kind of high society does our family belong to?
The real wealthy live in villas, have servants, and drive luxury cars, alright?”
“Ah…” Fu Binbin curled his lip, “Our car isn’t bad either, it cost a million, didn’t it?
Dad, lend it to me someday for a spin!”
Fu Yao paid no attention to Fu Binbin, and instead turned to Fu Shuangshuang, “Shuangshuang, you should contact Lu Mian anyway.
Having a meal isn’t such a big deal.
If she really has nowhere to go, I’ll just book her a room in a hotel near our neighborhood.
Who doesn’t go home for a family reunion during the Lunar New Year?
Just bear with it.
Also, invite your little uncle over, she has a good relationship with him.”
“You’re quite the benevolent uncle,” Weng Xia said sarcastically, then turned and went into the kitchen.
Reluctantly, Fu Shuangshuang replied to Lu Mian with another email.
[Send me your contact information, my dad says to invite little uncle over too.]
Fu Shuangshuang’s little uncle was her mother’s younger brother.
Lu Mian looked at the email and fell into a trance of elusive thoughts.
She didn’t have much affection for her elder uncle, but she did feel closer to her younger uncle.
When she had stayed at her uncle’s house, her younger uncle was also living there, already attending high school at that time.
Seeing that she liked reading, he would lend her all his books.
He didn’t disdain her for being unconventional, nor would he scold her for lying just because of her young age.
It was also at that time that she had studied all his textbooks on her own and finished the curriculums of elementary, middle school, and high school.
If she had to visit her uncle’s home, the only person she wanted to see was her younger uncle.
With that thought, Lu Mian still sent her phone number to Fu Shuangshuang.
Since she was in Jinjing, she had the chance to meet her little uncle.
She didn’t expect to stay at her elder uncle’s house anyway.
Besides, she needed to attend a physics training, celebrate the Lunar New Year at Director Qi’s home, and find time to visit IEG’s Jinjing branch.
Thinking this over, she really was quite busy.
She definitely didn’t have the time to go to Sufeng’s press event.
Fu Shuangshuang had never met Lu Mian in person, only knowing from what Shao Yunxuan had said about her dressing plainly, evidencing that she didn’t live a particularly good life.

After obtaining her contact information, she didn’t reach out, but she did send a message to Shao Yunxuan, who was about to step into the circle of the wealthy.
[Yunxuan, where do you live now?
Do you have time to have a meal together?] After sending the message, she looked towards Weng Xia with longing: “Mom, you said in the fortune-telling that our family would meet a benefactor this year; could we, like Shao Yunxuan, encounter a big shot who would take our entire family to new heights?”
“I don’t know about that, the fortune-teller simply said so.”
Listening to the mother-daughter conversation, Fu Yao silently took out his phone, which displayed a message.
He had labeled the contact as: Mr.
Han Jin.
The message from the other party read: [Mr.
Fu, do you have time for a meeting?]
—-
Fu Shuangshuang and Shao Yunxuan agreed to meet directly at Yangfan Hotel.
The place was imposing, and it provided a one-stop service for dining, entertainment, and leisure, which was very convenient.
Being treated to a meal here was quite a prestigious affair.
Shao Yunxuan had not been to such a fancy place before, and neither had Fu Shuangshuang.
The two, reuniting after a long time, felt a certain excitement meeting here.
Shao Yunxuan even took the initiative to act as a tour guide, accompanying Fu Shuangshuang on a leisurely stroll inside the hotel.
Even just visiting a hotel could take half a day to finish.
Fu Shuangshuang wore her most expensive clothes and smiled warmly, “Yunxuan, are you already a disciple of Master Chu Kong?”
“Ah, kind of,” Shao Yunxuan nodded hesitantly, “Master is quite patient with me.”
“That’s great, I heard Mr.
Chu Kong has a bit of a temper.
I didn’t expect him to be so nice to you, it must be because of your talent!”
“You flatter me.
Anyway, Master is indeed a nice person,” Shao Yunxuan said, hinting at some pride and even a bit of annoyance, “Sometimes he can be quite fierce, and he’s extremely strict regarding the piano.
I’m in for some tough days ahead.”
Though she complained, anyone could tell she was really just showing off.
Fu Shuangshuang couldn’t help but feel envious of her luck.
Who would have thought that the girl who used to follow her around, who struggled with academics and only got into high school through connections, could have come this far?
“Just by playing the piano to get the master’s favor…
had I known, I would have learned the piano as well.
I’m sure I could play better than Shao Yunxuan, let alone Lu Mian.”
But now it was too late for regrets.
She couldn’t help but fantasize about what VIP the Fu Family would entertain next, and whether she could also taste the feeling of entering high society…
The two girls idly strolled around.
Passing by the main building, Shao Yunxuan recognized the slightly stooped middle-aged man standing at the entrance from a distance as Mr.
Chu Kong, though she couldn’t tell what he was waiting for.
Eager to show off, she quickly took Fu Shuangshuang by the hand and approached him, greeting Mr.
Chu Kong warmly.
“Mr.
Chu!”
Mr.
Chu Kong had been squinting into the distance, but when he heard her voice, he snapped back to reality and his sober face broke into a smile, “Ah, Yunxuan!”
Because of the initial impression he got from that piece of music, even though Shao Yunxuan didn’t perform well the first time, he still patiently and gently bore with her.
“Mr.
Chu, why don’t you go sit inside the lobby, you might catch a cold out here.”
“I’m waiting for someone here, she’ll be here soon.
Are you meeting a friend?”
Shao Yunxuan nodded, “Yes, this is my friend Fu Shuangshuang.
Shuangshuang, this is Mr.
Chu Kong.”
Fu Shuangshuang greeted him with poise, “I’ve long heard of Mr.
Chu Kong’s great reputation, it’s a real honor to meet you in person.”
Mr.
Chu Kong simply nodded in acknowledgement, not showing the same warmth he had with Shao Yunxuan.
Such a reaction only thrilled Shao Yunxuan more.
Being treated differently by a master of his caliber filled her with pride and a sense of accomplishment.
“Mr.
Chu, please go ahead with your business, I’ll continue showing my friend around.”
“Alright.”
After Shao Yunxuan and Fu Shuangshuang left, once they were some distance away, Fu Shuangshuang couldn’t help but remark, “Yunxuan, your master really treats you well.”
“Yes, I hope I can play even better pieces in the future and not let down his expectations.”
Fu Shuangshuang looked at Shao Yunxuan sideways, somewhat puzzled.
Shao Yunxuan’s piano playing was pretty ordinary back then.
Fu Shuangshuang, although not very knowledgeable about music, faintly remembered that Lu Mian’s electronic keyboard sounded better than Shao Yunxuan’s piano.
It was truly miraculous that she could earn the appreciation of a master.
Even though Fu Shuangshuang felt somewhat constrained, she still clung to Shao Yunxuan’s arm and smiled, accompanying her as they continued to explore the hotel.
