Chapter 235 - I Have Heard A Lot About You

Arriving at the Fu House, Fu Hua held Jia Li's hand after they stepped out of the car.

historical

Jia Li had fixed her gaze on the second car as the soldiers took Ocean out of it. "Ocean." Jia Li called out but Fu Hua pulled her towards him.

"Do you want to take her inside for dinner with the rest of the family?" Fu Hua asked.

"No...but..." Jia started, but her words were cut off.

"There are no buts. Let them take care of her. Have you forgotten what the vet doctor said?" Fu Hua said in a reminder.

"Come, let's go inside." He said as he pulled her to walk inside the house and she slowly retracted her gaze and followed him.

Thinking of meeting her Sister-in-law for the first time, Jia Li suddenly became nervous. She didn't know if FangSu would like her.

Fu FangSu who had been waiting eagerly for her brother heard from one of the servants that he was there already. She left what she was doing and ran towards the main entrance to the house.

FangSu saw Fu Hua waking in with a woman beside him, she didn't bother to take a good look at her, as all her attention was on her Big Brother.

"Brother!" FangSu called out in excitement as she ran towards Fu Hua and hugged him tightly.

"You're back." Fu Hua said as he let her hug him to her heart's content, while still holding onto Jia Li's left hand.

"Brother, I missed you so much!" FangSu said as she tightened her hold on him.

"What's there to miss me for?" Fu Hua asked with a slight smile.

Jia Li guessed from their interaction that the brother and sister have a good relationship, even though Fu Hua was not acting like one that missed his sister.

FangSu finally let go of Fu Hua and started to complain. "Brother you're so mean! You don't care about me, brother Pei is much better."

The smile on Fu Hua's face spread more, and he said to her, "Cut the crap, who said I don't care about you? FangSu, this is your sister-in-law, Jia Li. Jia Li, meet my younger Sister, FangSu."

"Hello!" Jia Li greeted FangSu with a smile.

FangSu glanced at the hands of her brother and Jia Li that were joined together, before looking up at Jia Li. She faked a smile and waved at Jia Li.

"I have heard a lot about you!" FangSu said with a smile that was not a smile. Now wanting to waste her time on Jia Li, she glanced back at her brother and smile profoundly, before grabbing his left arm

"Brother, I bought gifts for everyone, come on, we have to hurry in already." FangSu said as she pulled Fu Hua to go inside.

"Slow down!" Fu Hua said while holding onto Jia Li's soft hand. He didn't want to let go of Jia Li even with her pulling her that way.

Jia Li felt that FangSu didn't like her but she was not sure if her instinct was wrong.

FangSu continued chatting with Fu Hua until they got to the dining room, where everyone was waiting for them.

Seeing Jia Li, grandfather Fu smiled and said to FangSu, "SuSu, have you seen your sister-in-law, Jia Li?"

FangSu smiled sweetly as she replied to the happy old man, "Yes grandfather, I've seen her."

"Good!" Grandfather Fu responded with a smile. It would be good if the two people he liked best became close.

FangSu finally let go of Fu Hua and went to sit on the left side of Grandfather Fu, while Jia Li and Fu Hua walked to his right side.

As Fu Hua helped Jia Li to take off her thick oversized coat and handed it to the servant standing behind them, FangSu's eyes nearly popped out in shock when she saw Jia Li's baby bump.

"She's pregnant?!" She was so shocked that she blurted that question out. Never would she have thought that Jia Li was already pregnant and her baby bump was already very visible enough.

Earlier when she saw her brother, she didn't pay attention to Jia Li and also because she didn't like her, so she didn't see her baby bump and the big thick overcoat she wore, helped to hide the baby bump from her.

"Yes, she is." Grandfather Fu said happily.

Fu Hee saw the daughter's shocked gaze and looked away. She was guilty of not telling her about it because she didn't want her to be worried at the time.

Fu ChunHua smiled and used a glass of water to hide it. She knows that FangSu was friends with the daughter of the Bai family and since both mother and daughter wanted Fu Hua to marry Bai Jun and the plans failed, FangSu would hate Jia Li.

Jia Li felt awkward with FangSu's surprised glint. She only felt better when Fu Hua pulled out a seat for her and helped her to sit down.

"Jia Li, be careful of your baby bump not to hit the edge of the table." Fu ChunHua reminded with a smile, before she moved her gaze to Fu Hee and then to FangSu to know what their reaction would be.

Fu Hee didn't say anything, nor did she react to what Fu ChunHua said. It was only FangSu who was currently gritting her teeth ???? secretly while staring at Jia Li.

At ChunHua's reminder, Grandfather Fu glanced over to check if there was a safe distance between Jia Li's baby bump and the edge of the table but from that angle, he was sitting (Head table), he couldn't see properly, so he said to her...

"Li girl, don't trouble yourself if your hand can't reach the dishes on the table, Fu Hua will help you with them."

"Thank you, grandfather." Jia Li said with a smile while FangSu was seething with rage.

'Did she just address my grandfather like he belonged to her?' FangSu asked herself as she felt anger boiling inside of her.

During dinner, FangSu didn't keep her mouth shut and nobody chided her for talking while eating.

FangSu made small talks with almost everybody and replied to any questions she was asked but she intentionally ignored Jia Li.
