Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The only thing that Fu Sheng wasn’t satisfied with was that Le Wan was a bit of an idiot. However, after she suddenly made progress, this shortcoming was gone. If it wasn’t for the fact that the eldest brother was a little older than her, the two of them would be the best match. Unfortunately, such a good marriage was ruined by the second brother. Thinking of Fu Sui, he immediately thought of Le Yan. He couldn’t help but shake his head in his heart.
Fu Sui said that he was snobbish and looked down on Le Yan’s background, so he was unwilling to acknowledge Le Yan. Fu Sheng didn’t deny this, but it wasn’t just for this reason.
Although he valued Le Wan’s background, it didn’t mean that he only valued this. If Le Yan was really a capable person, he might also think highly of her. Unfortunately, Le Yan wasn’t like that. Although she was smart, she could only deal with small fights.
On the contrary, this girl’s ambition was very big, so big that it completely exceeded her ability. Only Fu Sui, this silly boy, was blinded by a moment of love, so he couldn’t see her true colors and was temporarily intimidated by her.
He had yet to find a suitable marriage partner for Fu Sui, so he turned a blind eye to the matter between the two of them. In any case, he believed that his second son would see the situation clearly when he was faced with a real choice. It didn’t matter if he went along with him now. Anyway, Le Yan was still useful now, so Fu Sui wasn’t at a disadvantage.
Fu Sheng’s heart was beating fast, but all of it had nothing to do with Le Wan. He was more concerned about the “whose brother-in-law” that Le Wan mentioned earlier.
“I don’t think your brother did it on purpose. The person he’s talking about should be Dai Chun, the brother-in-law of the director of the Land and Resources Bureau. I heard that he has a big project on hand and is currently selecting a partner. If he can win that project…” Fu Sheng glanced at Le Wan and teased, “Then you can collect the dowry that your elder brother promised you.”
Le Wan blushed and mumbled,
“He’s my big brother, not my father. Who needs him to save up for my dowry?
It turned out that after Le Wan and Fu Sui got engaged, the adults had teased Fu Sui and told him to treat Le Wan well and let her live a good life. Otherwise, they wouldn’t let him off easily.
Big Brother Le, who was only a teenager at that time, was at his prime. He hugged Le Wan and said,
“It’s better to rely on yourself than others. When I earn more money, I’ll give my baby a dowry worth billions. With money in hand, she can live comfortably wherever she goes!”
At that time, the Le Corporation hadn’t developed to its current scale. Even if all the family assets were added up, they wouldn’t have so much money. Therefore, everyone thought that Big Brother Le was talking with his youthful spirit and didn’t take it seriously. They only took it as a joke and used it to tease him for several years. It was only when Big Brother Le grew up and could take charge of his own affairs that everyone gradually stopped mentioning this matter.
Now that Fu Sheng had suddenly brought up this matter, the target of ridicule had become Le Wan.
Le Wan had no choice but to change the topic.
“I think it’s because Big Brother is too nervous. Dad is Dai Chun’s savior. He was the one who came to us to ask for cooperation. He’s sincere, so this project can’t run away. Why would we need to waste so much effort?”
Little Brother Le, who had been silent all this while, saw Fu Sheng’s expression change for a moment. Because it happened too quickly, if he hadn’t been secretly paying attention, he probably wouldn’t have noticed it. He snorted coldly in his heart,
It seems that my sister is right. This good Uncle Fu of theirs really has bad intentions. All these years of relationship between the two families have been wasted!
On the other hand, Fu Sheng wasn’t in a good mood. Ever since the decision to develop the new district in the north of the city was made, the central area had been a piece of land. These companies had been eyeing it for a long time, but the government had been covering it up tightly and had no plans to open the market.
After staring at them for several years, there was finally news that they were going to release the land. In the end, before they could do anything, Dai Chun made a move and found the Le family.
If it was a fair competition and the Fu family lost, Fu Sheng would feel better. However, it wasn’t the case. He didn’t know why Le Chang was so lucky. Back then, he had pulled Dai Chun along just like that. In the end, Dai Chun remembered it for so many years and came to him with the project, saying that he wanted to repay his kindness.
This made Fu Sheng feel very uncomfortable.
Dai Chun wasn’t very capable, but he had a good life. He had a good brother-in-law and had been riding on his brother-in-law’s power for so many years. This time, he acted so quickly, clearly wanting to get a big share of me me..
