Chapter 531 - A Fire Burning In His Heart
"Who was that lady you were speaking with just now, and I saw you take her to Grandfather, is she your 'girlfriend'? YingPei asked as a mischievous smile played on his face.
Fu Ling put his hands inside his front trouser pockets and replied, "Yes."
"Where did you pick her up from?." YingPei asked with interest. He wanted to know his cousin's tactics with picking up girls in less than 24 hours.
"She works for me, she is my personal assistant." Fu Ling replied.
"What!" Fu YingPei exclaimed in surprise before going forward to ask, "You are doing office romance now?"
Fu Ling frowned. "What office romance? All of this happened on short notice, and it was convenient for me to pick her. She works for me, and she will be able to relate more to my situation."
YingPei placed his hand on his shoulder and asked, "Are you planning to date her?."
"I don't like mixing my personal life with my work life, so I can't date her, it will be bothersome, and she is not really my type." Fu Ling replied with furrowed brows.
YingPei nodded and said to him, "Good luck with deceiving Grandfather till the end."
When it was time to leave, Fu Hee tried to separate the little girl from her parents, but she refused and began to cry.
The arrangement was that Jia Li and Fu Hua would spend the night together in their home, then the next day, the little bun would be brought to them early in the morning so they can travel together for their honeymoon.
Grandfather Fu walked over and asked the little bun to come to him. Jasmine glanced at her great grandfather and slowly stopped crying, but she didn't stretch out her hands to him, so the old man had to come to her side and lift her in his arms.
"Don't cry, we are going home to see Ocean, Avery, and Archie. Great-grandpa will also give you some strawberries and chocolates. Oh! that's right, we have some Ice cream in the fridge. What would you like?." Grandfather Fu asked as he carried Jasmine in his arm and walked towards his car, while Fu Lei and Fu Geming followed after him.
As his aged voice faded, Jia Li sighed in relief. The little bun was hard to please especially when you want to talk her out of her plans.
After Jia Li and Fu Hua left in their car, YingPei went to meet Daiyu before sending her and her friends off.
They were going to the hotel rooms that were already booked for them. When they left for the church wedding in the morning, the servants already sent their stuff to their hotel room. As for the properties of the Fu female family members, they had already sent them back to the Fu Mansion, so there was no need for them to return.
Back at home, as the driver carrying Jia Li and Fu was driving in, a van was leaving. Jia Li was surprised and asked Fu Hua about the van.
"They just delivered our wedding gifts, so they are leaving."
"Are you saying that we got so many wedding gifts?" Jia Li asked with her mouth agape.
Jia Li was already used to the wealth of the Fu family members, but the van that just drove out of their house premises was too big to contain their wedding gifts, so she was surprised.
"I am the first grandchild of the Fu family from my grandfather's side to get married, and our family is already very influential, so it is a given that we would receive so many gifts." Fu Hua replied.
Now, this was not just about the Fu family being influential. Fu Hua was also influential and had a lot of business partners who would like to curry his favor by sending him so many expensive wedding gifts.
Another reason is that the Fu family had a lot of money, so giving them money as a wedding gift was meaningless. And since that was the case, buying them expensive gifts that were useful, made sense.
When Jia Li and Fu Hua walked into their bedroom and saw the new decorations and set up, they felt warned up in their hearts.
"What kind of night are we going to have?." Fu Hua asked as a playful smile turned up on his lips.
"A calm and warm night because I'm very tired." Jia Li replied with a smile before walking into their walk-in closet.
Fu Hua followed after her and asked, "Are you for real? This is our wedding night, we can't just get to bed like that."
"Who says we can't sleep on our wedding night? I'm tired, and I just need a warm bubble bath with rose petals and a bottle of champagne. And after that, I want to lie in your embrace and sleep peacefully." Jia Li replied as she sat on the stool and took off her jewelry while glancing at the mirror.
Fu Hua smiled and said to her, "Your idea is not bad. I'm very happy that you would want to sleep in my embrace, but what if a fire begins to burn in my heart?."
Jia Li blushed as she understood what he was talking about, but she still replied to him, "Then you would have to endure it until we embark on our honeymoon."
Fu Hua chuckled softly and came behind her to embrace and kiss her neck. "You are beginning to get naughty."
"Who taught me that?." Jia Li asked as she gazed at him with a smile from the mirror.
Fu Hua helped Jia Li to get off her dress and to lose the pins that were used to style her hair. Seeing his wife half-naked, made him smile happily.
The bathroom was close by, so Jia Li didn't bother to put on some clothes before going there, and besides, her bathrobe was in the bathroom.
Without taking much time, Fu Hua undressed and joined her in the bathroom.. When he arrived Jia Li was already running their bath.
