Wu Zhendong assured firmly, "I have already spoken to Grandma Fu on the phone, and I also visited her in person. Although she didn't see me, she will definitely come."

Wu Xuejiu breathed a sigh of relief and said in a deep voice, "The Fu family has just arrived in North City. We are not the only family that wants to get in touch with the Fu family. We must take this opportunity to communicate with the Fu family and leave a good impression. Other things should be put aside for now. Do you understand?"

Wu Zhendong nodded quickly, "Dad, don't worry, I understand."

He was always steady and prudent in his work, so Wu Xuejiu didn't give him any further instructions and just left.

At this moment, Wu Zhendong's phone rang. He paused when he saw the caller ID, walked into the bedroom, closed the door, and then answered the phone, whispering, "Sisi, what's wrong?"

On the phone, Qin Sisi was crying and sobbing, "Senior Wu, what should I do... Someone took pictures of us and now they are everywhere... Mu Chuan also misunderstood me, I don't know what to do..."

Wu Zhendong heard her crying, his face full of heartache, and said softly, "Don't panic, I have arranged for someone to reduce the fever, it will be over soon, believe me."

"But no one believes me..." Qin Sisi cried, "Senior Wu, can you please come out and make a statement, saying that we are just friends, or that you are my suitor? I don't want people to think that I am a fickle woman..."

Wu Zhendong's eyes flashed with a struggle, and he said in embarrassment, "Sisi, I'm sorry, I... my family has issued a ban on me. I have to ignore this matter and cannot make any response. I can't issue a statement."

Qin Sisi choked up and said, "Is it not possible for me? Senior Wu, I have never asked you for anything, but I just ask you this time, please save me..."

Wu Zhendong's heart was about to break when he heard this, but compared with family, love between young people was too insignificant and not worth mentioning. He could only comfort her, "Sisi, the innocent are innocent. There is nothing wrong between us. There is no need to prove anything to others. Those who believe in you will definitely believe in you, and those who don't believe in you are not worth your sadness."

On the other end of the phone, Qin Sisi's nails were about to bleed. She knew that Wu Zhendong was of no use, so she didn't bother to argue any more and said in a tearful voice, "Okay then..."

After hanging up the phone, the pitiful look on her face disappeared instantly. Her fingers tightly gripped the phone with a gloomy expression.

The ambiguous photos of her and Wu Zhendong suddenly spread throughout the North City, and the Zhou family naturally saw them. Zhou Muchuan came to question her early in the morning, and she took great pains to fool Zhou Muchuan, but Zhao Jiali was not an easy person to deal with. During breakfast, she even told her to get out of the Zhou family!

Although Zhou Muchuan protected her, he was obviously skeptical about the matter and did not completely believe her.

She originally thought that if she asked Wu Zhendong to come out and explain and issue a statement, even if he was her suitor, it would explain what was going on with the ambiguity.

But she didn't expect that Wu Zhendong would refuse.

Her current situation is very dangerous, and if she is not careful she will be doomed. She has finally come to where she is today, and she cannot give up the wealth that is within her reach!

What should we do? What should we do to turn the tide and let the Zhou family get over this matter completely?

Just then, there was a knock on the door, followed by Zhou Ruotang's voice, "Sister Sisi, my mother asked you to come downstairs and taste the fruits that had just been delivered."

Qin Sisi quickly straightened her clothes and put her facial expression back to normal before she walked over to open the door, smiled softly, and said, "Okay, I'll be down right away."

Zhou Ruotang was furious when he saw her red and swollen eyes. "Sister Sisi, are you upset about the photo? Don't worry, I believe you, and my brother believes you too. It was the man surnamed Wu who touched you, and you are clearly the victim."

Qin Sisi's eyes turned red again. She choked up for a while, then forced a smile and looked at Zhou Ruotang gratefully. "Ruotang, thank you. I'm really happy that you are willing to believe me. Fortunately, I have you and Brother Muchuan, otherwise I don't know what to do."

Zhou Ruotang grabbed her hand and said firmly, "Sister Sisi, don't worry, I will find a way for you with my mother. In my heart, you will always be my dearest and most beloved sister-in-law."

After going downstairs, Zhao Jiali was picking up a grape and putting it in her mouth. When she saw Qin Sisi coming down, her face suddenly darkened and she scolded her harshly, "You still have the nerve to laugh?! You have brought shame to the Zhou family! Fortunately, I didn't let you in, otherwise the whole North City would be waiting to see the Zhou family's joke!"

Zhou Ruotang was unwilling and said dissatisfiedly, "Mom, what are you talking about? Sister Sisi did nothing wrong. It was Wu Zhendong who touched her. Sister Sisi is also a victim. Can you be more tolerant of Sister Sisi?"

Zhao Jiali was furious at her daughter's words. "Is your brain filled with shit? The photos clearly showed that the man wiped her tears, touched her hair, and even grabbed her hand, but she didn't even look like she was resisting. Instead, she smiled. I think she was enjoying it!"

Zhou Ruotang wanted to speak up for Qin Sisi again, but Zhao Jiali didn't give her a chance and scolded her, "I'm telling you, stay away from her. This kind of woman is so coquettish and slutty, not much different from Xu Yansang! Don't let her lead you astray! If you say anything more, I'll deduct all your pocket money!"

"Mom!" Zhou Ruotang stomped her feet in dissatisfaction, but did not dare to say anything else.

Zhao Jiali looked at Qin Sisi again and said unhappily, "What are you still standing there for? Don't you see that there are several boxes of fruit that haven't been washed yet? Go move them to the kitchen and wash them!"

Qin Sisi took a look at the four or five boxes of fruit stacked together. No matter how reluctant she was in her heart, she walked over timidly on the surface. She tried hard to lift a box, but it was so heavy that she couldn't even lift her arms.

She moved to the kitchen with difficulty. Her arms were sore from exhaustion. She gritted her teeth and opened the box to wash the fruit.

In the living room, Zhao Jiali looked at Zhou Ruotang unhappily, "Don't take the Wu family lightly. If the Wu family stamps their feet, our Zhou family will be skinned alive! Did you buy the invitation to the birthday party of the old man of the Wu family?

This is a serious matter, and we have to do it no matter how much it costs. This is a good opportunity for us to show up in the upper class society of North City, and it's a good opportunity to pick a suitable partner for you."

Zhou Ruotang was helpless when he mentioned this, "Mom, who wouldn't want to go to the Wu family's banquet? What's more, the Wu family spread the word that they have invited a heavyweight guest, who seems to be an old lady with a prominent background. Now it's hard to get an invitation to the Wu family banquet."

Zhao Jiali said unhappily, "If it were easy, would I need you to find a way? You better work hard and get two invitations as soon as possible, so as to avoid any more trouble. The time is almost up, and it will be even harder to get them in two days!"

"I understand." Zhou Ruotang also wanted to attend the Wu family's birthday banquet. She would do her best even without Zhao Jiali's instructions.

Neither of them noticed that Qin Sisi was listening to their words in a daze at the kitchen door.

Wu family birthday banquet? A heavyweight old lady?

If she could go to the banquet and win the favor of the old lady, wouldn't all the problems be solved? By then, no one in the entire North City would dare to look down on her.
