Chapter 166: The Anniversary of Death

On the way back, Si Mi folded Fu Zhen’s talisman paper and put it in his shirt pocket. She let out a breath and finally had some idea!

Just like what Grandma Fu had said, these things could not be completely trusted. In today’s society, unless there was really no other way to solve it, who would go to the gods and Buddhas?

It was just that they cherished it in their hearts and were afraid of the consequences. They just wanted peace of mind!

Fu Zhen looked at the side of her face that she was paying attention to. “What did Master Ran mean by what he told you today?” He did not understand what the monk meant, but when he saw Si Mi’s surprised look… he had some doubts in his heart!

Si Mi raised her head to look at him. After a long time, she smiled lightly. “If I say that it’s my biggest secret, I’m not ready to tell it to anyone yet! Will you allow me to hide anything from you?”

Fu Zhen looked into her clear and honest eyes. After a long time, he patted her head. “Yes, everyone can have a secret. But I hope that one day, you will tell it to me, and only out of complete trust in me!”

Si Mi pressed her face into his arms and hummed!

Grandma Fu sat in the front passenger seat. The mountain path was narrow and the curves were wide. She was afraid that she would get carsick and feel uncomfortable, so she only pretended to sleep. She heard everything that they said!

She thought about how she had done the right thing by getting Fu Zhen and Si Mi married.

When she returned home, Si Mi wanted to keep Grandma here for a few more days. The old woman smiled and said, “I won’t disturb the two of you. I’ll come often when I’m free!”

She took back her hand that was touching Si Mi’s little face and turned around to say to Fu Zhen, “The end of this month will be the anniversary of your father’s death. You should get ready. It’s better for you to bring Si Mi home!”

Fu Zhen lowered his head and didn’t say anything. The atmosphere suddenly became tense. Grandma Fu sighed. She said, “I know you don’t care what others say about you! But Mi Mi, she’s the daughter-in-law of the Fu family. I will never allow others to look down on her. What should be given to her must be given to her!”

Grandma Fu’s attitude was tough and her tone was firm. Si Mi looked at her and looked at Fu Zhen again. She said, “There’s still so much time. We can take some time to prepare!”

She playfully winked at Fu Zhen and took Grandma’s hand to comfort the old woman. “Grandma has been tired today. Go back and rest first! I’ll talk to him about this! Okay?”

Grandma looked at Si Mi and smiled. “That’s right! With Si Mi around, I can have a meaningful conversation with him. Just like the old man, I’ll be stubborn for the rest of my life!”

After getting into the car, Auntie Xue tidied her clothes and said, “Will Young Master come back when the time comes? Is the matter between them passable?”

The old lady closed her eyes and leaned back in the car seat. The passing lights and shadows hit her face, and she was a little tired. “Even if he can’t pass, he has to pass. My days are not long. How long can I watch the Fu family fall apart?! I have let his mother down for what happened back then! I atoned for my sins for so many years. Do you think he didn’t see it? This is already a good ending!”

Auntie Xue sighed and shook her head. “Yes, it’s already very good! Now that Young Madam is here, your relationship with Young Master will only get better and better!”

“I’m already surprised that he took the initiative to ask me for help this time!” Grandma Fu said.

Fu Zhen sat on the chair and listened to Assistant Li’s report on today’s work on the phone. “President Fu, our docking work today was very smooth! It’s just that Manager Fu has been watching me at the company all day, and I don’t know what he’s up to!”

Assistant Li thought of the past and exclaimed, “Could it be that he’s still unhappy about that project? He’s planning to beat me up!”

Fu Zhen held the Calming Talisman that he had just taken from the mountain. “Hasn’t Fu Kun’s case been closed recently? There must be something fishy about him staying at the company all day. Get a few people to keep an eye on him!”

“Yes, President Fu! Will you come to the company tomorrow?” the poor Assistant Li asked submissively. He was still working overtime in the company!

Si Mi carried a glass of water over. Fu Zhen glanced at her, raised his hand to take it, and said to Assistant Li on the other end of the phone, “The meeting will start on time tomorrow!” Then he hung up the phone!

“Don’t you want to rest for another day?” Si Mi asked him.
