Chapter 61 - A Sense Of Accomplishment
After Breakfast, Fu Meixu hooked Jia Li's arm and led the way to the car.
Jia Li was uncomfortable with the sudden closeness, but she couldn't do anything. She just let Fu Meixu drag her to the car.
Old Mr. Fu let his chauffeur send them to the shooting mall, he even added security who is more like a soldier to escort them, the same soldier that brought Jia Li to the Fu house.
Fu Meixu was feeling glee that she got to experience this kind of treatment from her grandfather because of Jia Li, so she decided to never let go of her.
She must stick to her if she wanted to rip some benefits.
While shopping, Fu Meixu helped Jia Li to pick up a few things since the latter kept telling them that she only needed two clothes.
"Jia Li, since my grandfather has given you money to spend, spend it otherwise he will not be happy. Come, let me help you to pick some clothes. I will only allow you to pick at least, 5 different outfits, so make your choice." Fu Meixu said while educating her as if she was a child.
Jia Li had no choice but to follow her lead and choose 5 different outfits.
Fu Meixu observed Jia Li, and discovered that she had a good fashion sense, then she remembered that she was majoring in Fashion and designing.
Fu Meixu made sure Jia Li picked some footwear and bags to match her outfits.
Jia Li felt like pulling Fu Meixu out of the store, but she couldn't do it.
Fu Meixu ended up getting two outfits, shoes, and Bags for herself.
After shopping for clothes, Fu Meixu took her to another store to get some other things she might need.
"Is there a book store close by, I want to get a book?." Jia Li asked.
"What do you need a book for?." Fu Meixu asked in a curious tone.
"I want to read some books to keep myself busy." Jia Li replied.
She has thought about it. She didn't want to be in her room all day with nothing to do. She would easily get bored. So she needed to get one or two books to keep her company.
"You shouldn't be scared of being bored, because I will be here to accompany you. But since you want a book, we will go to the bookstore." Fu Meixu said, and then, off they went to the bookstore, and Jia Li selected two books. One novel, and self-development book.
"Jia Li, did you have fun today?." Grandfather Fu asked immediately he saw them walk into the house. He has been sitting there and waiting for them.
"Yes, thank you, Grandfather." Jia Li replied with a smile.
Hearing someone else address her Grandfather so intimately, and get close to him when she couldn't, Meixu felt a sense of jealousy.
"It's good that you had fun today!." Grandfather Fu said to her.
Fu Meixu fished out the credit card from her bag and handed it to the old man, but he asked her to keep it.
"Keep it for now. During the time Jia Li will be staying, take care of her. You can go to the Cinema, Spa, park, or any place of her choice."
Jia Li and Fu Meixu thanked the old man, and he asked them to keep their things and come out for the snacks he asked the kitchen to prepare for them.
Fu Meixu felt a sense of accomplishment with today, and also with the benefits, she was going to get just for accompanying Jia Li.
She was very excited and must take full advantage of this opportunity.
After Jia Li snapped the shop bags lying in her room and sent them to her parents, they called her later at night to ask her about it.
She chatted with her parents for a while, before the call got disconnected.
"It's good the Old man likes our Jia Li and is taking good care of her." Mrs. Qin said to her husband.
"Yes. It's not all wealthy people that are mean, so you can relax." Mr. Qin said to her.
"Then what do you have to say about my family?." Mrs. Qin asked with her gaze on him.
Mr. Qin looked at her helplessly. "Your family is different. They only opposed our marriage because of my background. Why are we talking about unhappy things? let's talk about something else."
Mrs. Qin sighed and placed her head on his shoulder, then he wrapped an arm on her back.
"I suddenly miss out daughter, and want her to come back." Mrs. Qin said.
"Jia Li will be back soon. Why are you taking this way, it's not like we won't see her again." Mr. Qin said to console her.
"Right, Jia Li will be back soon, and our small family of three will reunite." Mrs. Qin said.
Back at the Fu Mansion, Fu Hua was absent during Dinner today, because he was still very busy at the office. And he ended up coming home late.
Grandfather Fu's rule remains that the entire family must have Dinner together unless there was a valid reason the person would be absent.
Fu Hua skipping dinner this time around was exempted because he had a valid reason.
The next day, Fu Meixu took Jia Li to the spa to get facials and a massage.
This was the first time Jia Li was receiving this kind of treatment. She enjoyed it and felt so relaxed after everything.
From the spa, they went to a salon to wash their hair and get it styled.
Jia Li felt that things were going too extreme. She felt like she was wasting the Old man's money, hence, she refused to get her hair styled.
Because Jia Li refused to get her hair styled after washing it, Fu Meixu followed her.
When she saw Jia Li's hair after it was well-taking care of, Fu Meixu was surprised and wondered how she managed to maintain a long and silky hair.
As she ran her hands through her hair, she asked.
"You have such beautiful hair, so why don't you let it down, you should flaunt it!."
