Chapter 197 - Fu YingPei's Unhappiness
Fu Meixu was so happy as she was driving. She wanted to celebrate but she couldn't for now until the announcement was made official in her agency's post, and also from the director.
Fu Meixu called Jia Li over the phone to ask her out but the latter was busy with her school project, so she had to go back home.
On getting to the house, she announced the good news to her mother and they both celebrated.
"Have you thanked your grandfather yet?" Fu ChunHua asked with a smile.
"Not yet." Fu Meixu replied with a smile.
"What are you waiting for? Hurry up, go and a show your appreciation to him!" Fu ChunHua said as she hurried her.
Fu Meixu went to the study to find her grandfather but she was told by Butler Lu that he was on an important call, so she had to wait outside the door for a while.
Fu Meixu had all the patience in the world to wait to see her grandfather and fortunately, she only had to stand there for 10 minutes before Butler Lu called her inside.
Walking into the study, she met the gaze of her grandfather and smiled sweetly as she greeted him.
The happiness on her face, just couldn't be ignored by anyone. The smile was evident on her face.
"Grandfather, I got the role I asked for, thank you!" Fu Meixu said with a slight bow while standing before the old man.
"Is that what you came here for?" Grandfather Fu asked with his gaze on her.
Fu Meixu nodded as she started to wonder if she has done anything wrong because her grandfather's response was not right for this situation.
"There is no need to thank me. You can go back, and don't cause trouble." Grandfather Fu said to her.
"Thank you, grandfather!" Fu Meixu replied as she heaved a sigh of relief. She bowed to the old man again before leaving the study.
"Young Miss Meixu looks very happy." Butler Lu said with a smile.
"Why won't she be happy when she got what she wanted?" Grandfather Fu replied and got back to his work.
When Fu Meixu returned to her mother's side, she learned from her that her brother, Fu Ling received some funds from the old man to start his gaming company.
"Brother is very lucky. Now, I'm thinking I should have asked for more." Fu Meixu said with a little regret.
"It's not a good thing to always rely on your grandfather. You have to put some effort into your own as well and only then would he start to value you. Remember that this is the reason he likes your cousin so much." Fu ChunHua said to her in a soft tone.
Being reminded of her rival in the family, Fu Meixu's mood changed. She was the last child of the Fu family and got the old man's love and attention because she was very smart.
When she was around, she has always posed a threat to Fu Meixu, as the old man's favorite granddaughter. But while she was away, Fu Meixu found a breathing space.
"Don't feel bad, you only have to work hard and put a lot of effort into getting things that you want. You have to learn to stand up, and only then can you get the old man to accord you some respect." Fu ChunHua added.
Fu Meixu took her mother's words to heart as she began to make some plans in her head.
When Fu YingPei came back from work and learned that his cousins and even his brother had their requests granted, he went to find the old man because his request was yet to be granted.
He met Butler Lu along the way and asked about it.
"Young Master, your request was rejected." Butler Lu revealed to him with a smile.
"What? Why!" Fu YingPei asked with a frown.
Butler Lu glanced at the door to the study that was tightly shut. Fu YingPei followed his gaze, to see the study door that was tightly shut.
Without saying anything, Fu YingPei walked directly towards the study.
Butler Lu was alarmed and followed after him immediately. "Young Master, you can't go in now, the old master is busy with some important military matters."
Fu YingPei ignored him and walked ahead as unhappiness could be seen clearly written on his face.
He couldn't believe others request was accepted while he was rejected, and why would that be? Well, that's the answer to the question he was looking for.
When he approached the closed door, he knocked twice before he opened the door and stepped in with Butler Lu who was a little out of breath.
"Grandfather, I heard you rejected my request but granted to my brother and my cousin's the requests they sent to you. Don't you think it's unfair?" Fu YingPei asked in a bitter tone.
Grandfather Fu looked up and fixed his gaze on him. "What's unfair about it?"
'Huh 😕...'
Fu YingPei looked surprised with his response. "Grandfather, am I not your grandson? Why are you treating me unfairly?"
"Your cousins asked for important things that will help with their career and future, but you, what did you ask for? You asked for a vacation, and for me to sponsor it." Grandfather Fu said while pointing at him.
"Grandfather, what's wrong with taking a break from work?" Fu YingPei asked with a frown.
"You've only been working in FJ for a year now, so what are you taking a break for? You should be ashamed of yourself." Grandfather Fu said with a disappointed gaze.
Now, Fu YingPei has known the reason his request was rejected, but he couldn't leave empty-handed.
"Grandfather, can I still write another proposal?" He asked.
Grandfather Fu fixed his gaze on the military report he was looking at early on. He was retired but the country still couldn't help but need his assistance.
"You have lost the opportunity. Work hard in FJ, and you might receive another opportunity soon." The old man said without glancing at him.
Fu YingPei was disappointed.. 'Why do I have to work before I get another opportunity?' He thought, before trying to protest to the old man, but he was chased out of the study.
